I am glad it's uses an otherwise unused skin, and one that lots of people were hoping to see appear :)
Kinda sad it's not the venom sac chimera...I will keep hoping that one is implemented in the future.

Yeah I'm bummed the reptilian never showed up as a mount or pet... Or even a battle pet. :(

The rylak flying animation will forever bug me, but I like it overall. More than the armored version (if they got rid of the jet engines and the big blob of metal on the tail, I would totally love the armored version).

There actually is a variant model in the database that lacks the engines but retains the armour. I think it still has the stumpy metal tail though.

I actually think the existing tail of the armoured version is an unfinished part of the model or maybe a failed experiment. You'll see it has a ring at the end for something to attach. In its model folder is a ball that I think was meant to go on the end. Maybe like a spiked ball of destruction. It either wasn't working right or they just forgot it. Anyway I believe that's why the tail looks unfinished.

Oops. Has it retained the sounds of the armoured version??

EDIT: oh yeah, when it flies you can hear that "gas burner" sound.

You're right... how weird. I snapped this during the Beastlord Darmac fight.

That's it! That's what an armoured rylak should look like. They just look wrong without their balls :D
