WoW Petopia Community

This is a list of pet skins (colours) where there are no tameable versions as of patch 4.3, but the models belong to tameable families. I've also included skins where the only tameable version is a colour-changer, and hence not a stable colour.

Related lists:

• Untameable Families

Index:

• Unavailable colours. The post you're now viewing.
• Unavailable colours that would need to be copied from other models. Skins that fit existing models, but need to be copied from other models in order to be accessible.
• Untameable models that would fit in existing families.

Anything with (WMV) next to it hasn't been seen in-game or on Wowhead, but has only been found using Wowmodelviewer.

A number of skins have links to Petopia pages (where available), many others are linked to pictures that were generously provided by Wassa.

Basilisks
Azeroth model:
BasiliskSkinPurple (jade crest)

Bats

A lot of nice colours. No images yet. WMV refuses to render their wings.


Bears
BearSkinSpectral: the base skin for Arcturis, but on an opaque model - would look great as some sort of corrupted bear. Appears on Bear Spirits in Krasarang, but they're Undead
PolarBearCubSkin: milky-white, no snarl. Baby bear companion pet mapped onto a regular bear (WMV)

Pandaren Tiger model:
SiberianTigerGod


Chimaeras
ChimaeraSkinOutland: (WMV)


Crabs
Standard crab model:
CrabSkinTruesilver: jewelcrafter trinket Truesilver Crab. Would be perfect for the quicksilver swamp area of Deepholm
Deep sea crab model:
DeepSeaCrab_Ghost: skin used by Ghostcrawler. Looks amazing on an opaque model


Cranes
CraneGodWhite


Devilsaurs
Pandaren model:
All colours are in the game except for one original that was removed from the database during the 5.2 PTR:
ZandalariDevilsaur_Blue (original)


Direhorns
Organic skins:
All organic colours are in the game except for these two originals that were removed from the database during the 5.2 PTR:
TriceratopsBlue (original)
TriceratopsGreen (original)
Stone skins:
None of the stone skins are currently available as wild beasts
TriceratopsStoneBlue
TriceratopsStoneGrey
TriceratopsStoneJade
TriceratopsStoneYellow


Dogs
Darkhound model:
DarkHoundSkin: The version in the WoW database is missing part of its alpha mask for some reason, which makes its mane look blocky. All it needs is the same alpha mask from one of the other darkhound skins to work right. The thumbnail and image in the link is what is should look like with the right alpha mask.


Dragonhawks
DragonHawkSunreaverMount: has armour, so less likely to be tameable


Moths
Unused body/wing colour combinations:
Any combination of wing and body colour is possible. Several have already been mixed this way, such as red body with beige wings, and yellow body with blue or green (which actually belong to the "Red" skin) wings. Note that I name the wings by the skin colour, so the "Red" wings actually are mostly green, and the Yellow are mostly blue...
MothSkinBlue-Beige Wings MothSkinGrey-Beige Wings MothSkinWhite-Beige Wings MothSkinYellow-Beige Wings
MothSkinBeige-Blue Wings MothSkinGrey-Blue Wings MothSkinRed-Blue Wings MothSkinWhite-Blue Wings
MothSkinBeige-Grey Wings MothSkinBlue-Grey Wings MothSkinRed-Grey Wings MothSkinWhite-Grey Wings
MothSkinYellow-Grey Wings
MothSkinBeige-Green Wings MothSkinGrey-Green Wings MothSkinWhite-Green Wings
MothSkinBeige-White Wings MothSkinBlue-White Wings MothSkinGrey-White Wings MothSkinRed-White Wings
MothSkinBeige-Yellow Wings MothSkinBlue-Yellow Wings MothSkinGrey-Yellow Wings MothSkinRed-Yellow Wings MothSkinWhite-Yellow Wings


Quilen
Quilin_Jade: in game as Granite Fragment but gives "already controlled" message


Raptors
Basic 'primitive' riding raptor model:
The raptors that use the basic riding model are very distinct from the regular tameable beast model as they have a different head-shape, a large horn on their forehead instead of a small nose-horn, and ridges on their backs. It makes them look really primitive and gives them a lot of character. Unfortunately the only available model has a saddle, and one version of it is now tameable on the beta in Drak-Tharon Keep. But if we could get a versions without the saddle they'd make fantastic wild beasts. It also makes sense that the riding raptors had to be tamed from somewhere! The currently unavailable colours are depicted below:
RidingRaptorSkinEmerald
RidingRaptorSkinIvory
RidingRaptorSkinObsidian
RidingRaptorSkinTurquoise
RidingRaptorSkinViolet
TrexSkinBlackMount
TrexSkinGreenMount
RidingRaptorSkinTrexSkinRed
TrexSkinRedMount (same as RidingRaptorSkinTrexSkinRed but different saddle colour)
TrexSkinWhiteMount

Swift riding raptor model:
A couple of these raptors have been found tameable in MoP (complete with armour). Perhaps more will. The unavailable skins are:
PvPRidingRaptorSkinAqua
PvPRidingRaptorSkinBlack: Loa-Infused Bladetalon
PvPRidingRaptorSkinDarkBlack
PvPRidingRaptorSkinGreen: Tamed Bladetalon
PvPRidingRaptorSkinPurple
PvPRidingRaptorSkinWhite
PvPRidingRaptorSkinYellow
TourneyRidingRaptorSkinBlue


Ravagers
Elite model:
These skins were added to the elite model in 5.2. They were originally only on the regular model:
CrawlerGreen (elite model)
CrawlerOrange (elite model)
CrawlerPurple (elite model)


Serpents
Arcane wyrm model:
Now tameable in 5.1, only two colours are missing...
NetherDragonGreen (WMV)
NetherDragonYellow (WMV)


Turtles
Epic Pandaren turtle model:
RidingDragonTurtlePurple


Wind Serpents
Outland model:
Unused body/wing colour combinations:
Any combination of wing and body colour is possible. Several have already been mixed this way and became available in 5.1. Note that body/wing combos are also possible with old model wind serpents, in fact the red with orange wings has been available for a long time, but most of them look jarring. The thing that makes it work in the Outland model is that the body takes some colouring from the wings (for the sails) and the wings take a little colouring from the body skin, so it blends better. The unused combos are:
WindSerpentSkinOutland2-0 3-0WindSerpentSkinOutland WindSerpentSkinOutland4-0 WindSerpentSkinOutland5-0
WindSerpentSkinOutland2-1 WindSerpentSkinOutland3-1 WindSerpentSkinOutland4-1
WindSerpentSkinOutland0-2 WindSerpentSkinOutland3-2 WindSerpentSkinOutland4-2 WindSerpentSkinOutland5-2
WindSerpentSkinOutland0-3 WindSerpentSkinOutland2-3 WindSerpentSkinOutland4-3 WindSerpentSkinOutland5-3
WindSerpentSkinOutland0-4 WindSerpentSkinOutland1-4 WindSerpentSkinOutland2-4 WindSerpentSkinOutland3-4 WindSerpentSkinOutland5-4
WindSerpentSkinOutland0-5 WindSerpentSkinOutland1-5 WindSerpentSkinOutland2-5 WindSerpentSkinOutland3-5


Wolves
Spectral saber worg model:
SpectralSaberWorg_Light
Armoured riding wolf model:
PvPRidingDireWolfSkinDarkBlack is already used for a couple of tameables. The other colours are:
PvPRidingDireWolfSkinFrostWolf
PvPRidingDireWolfSkinFrostWolfSpectral: the spectral riding wolf skin on an opaque model
Tier2RidingDireWolfSkinBrown
Tier2RidingDireWolfSkinBurgundy
Tier2RidingDireWolfSkinGray
Tier2RidingDireWolfSkinLightGray

Skins that would look perfectly normal on the following models but would need to be copied over from other models:

Cats
Standard model:
A standard model version of any of the following skins that are currently only available for the sabre model:
RidingTigerSkinAqua
RidingTigerSkinGoldNoSaddle
RidingTigerSkinLavender
Glowing-eyes / hunched / 'gem' model:
A glowing-eyes/hunched model version of any of the following skins that are currently only available for the sabre model:
RidingTigerSkinAqua
RidingTigerSkinGoldNoSaddle
RidingTigerSkinLavender
Sabre / 'riding' model:
A sabre model version of any of the following skins that are currently only available for the standard or glowing-eyes models:
TigerSkinGreen
A sabre model version of any of the following skins that are currently only available for the spectral feral (spirit beast) model:
SpectralTigerGreen


Cranes
Alternate folder model:
CraneWhite (actually grey)


Ravagers
Elite model:
An elite (extra spiky) model version of any of the following skins that are currently only available for the regular ravager model:
CrawlerVar1 (elite model)
CrawlerVar2 (elite model)
CrawlerVar3 (elite model)
CrawlerVar4 (elite model)
CrawlerVar5 (elite model)
CrawlerVar6 (elite model)
CrawlerVar7 (elite model)
CrawlerVar8 (elite model)
CrawlerVar9 (elite model)
The three elite model skins would also work on the regular model, but would need alpha masks copied to them first. Unmodified they look wrong.


Moths
MothSkinPet: Exists on the "MothPet" model but works on the large model. Current skin is only 128x128 instead of the normal 256x256. Hopefully higher res. version exists

Untameable models that could fit in existing families:

Core Hounds
VoidTerrorSkinBlack: Hound of Culuthas, Void Terror, etc. (only demons currently)


Dogs
Pug_Tan: perky pug pet, when blown up to full size would make a decent, scary-looking attack bulldog!


Serpents
Mana wyrms:
Since arcane wyrms are now tameable as serpents, their smaller siblings would also belong there. At least until they get a family of their own...
ManaWurmSkinBlack : Nether Beast etc.
ManaWurmSkinGreen : Mana Serpent
ManaWurmSkinPurple : Phase Wyrm
ManaWurmSkinSilver1 : Mana Shifter etc.
ManaWurmSkinWhite: Mana Snapper & Mana Feeder

Snake model:
This low-to-ground model has no tameable examples, but belongs in this family. They'd be great for hunters who want a serpent but don't like the large "in your face" model. They also still look nice and sleek when scaled up to larger size, too. Examples of each colour are below:
SnakeSkinBlack: many beasts, including Cavern Serpent and Serpentbloom Snake
SnakeSkinBlue: a number of beasts, including Cobaltscale Death Adder
SnakeSkinBrown: Dune Rattler, Sand Serpent etc.
SnakeSkinDarkGreenYellow: Bamboo Python etc.
SnakeSkinGreen: Slad'ran Constrictor etc.
SnakeSkinRed: Swarming Serpent etc.
SnakeSkinRedWhiteBlack: Sand Slitherer, Twilight Serpent etc.
SnakeSkinWhite: Deviate Python etc.
SnakeSkinYellowBlack: Yellowback Water Moccasin etc.

Python model:
PythonBlack: Ancient Python
PythonBrown: Ancient Python
PythonGreen: Ancient Python


Rhinos
Clefthoof model:
Clefthooves are very similar in shape and function to rhinos and should probably share a family with them
CleftHooveBlack: Aged Clefthoof
CleftHooveBladeEdge: Banthar
CleftHooveBrown: Clefthoof
CleftHooveLightbrown: Clefthoof Bull
CleftHooveRed: Brokentoe
CleftHooveTerokkar: Decrepit Clefthoof


Silithids
Sandreaver model:
Note sure if they should be classed as silithids or in a family of their own, but listing them here.
SandreaverSkin_Blue2: Sarinexx
SandreaverSkin_Orange2: Kurinnaxx
SandreaverSkin_Yellow2: Fankriss the Unyielding
SandreaverSkin_Blue: blue unmarked version
SandreaverSkin_Orange: orange unmarked version
SandreaverSkin_Yellow: yellow unmarked version
SandreaverSkin1: pink unmarked version


Bears
Amani Bear Mounts:
These look like they're wearing armour more than a saddle, so don't look too weird as an attack beast. In fact they're used that way in the ZA raid. There are two skin colours (black, brown) and six armour colours (browm, green, purple, red, violet yellow):
BearMountSkinBlack: Amani Bear & Amani Bear Mount use the green saddle, Amani Warbear uses the violet

BearMountSkinBrown:

Northrend bear mount skins, such as NorthrendBearMountSkinWhite1, used by the Brunnhildar Riding Bear. There are a bunch of colours, including an icy white with blue lips, that don't occur on regular bears and could make interesting new skins if they could have no-saddle versions.


Tallstriders
Hawkstriders:
Hawkstriders would make fantastic and very colourful additions to this small family. Unfortunately the only available models have saddles, but if we could get versions without the saddles they'd be prime targets for taming. Hopefully versions without the saddles exist in Blizzard's art team's databases. But even saddled ones may work, just like some wolf and raptor tameables.
Regular model
CockatriceMount: Azurebeak
CockatriceMountBlack
CockatriceMountBlue
CockatriceMountGreen
CockatriceMountPurple
CockatriceMountWhite
Epic / armoured model
The "epic" skins often seem quite similar to the regular ones, but the colour shades are actually different in all cases.
CockatriceElite: Eclipsion Hawkstrider
CockatriceEliteBlack
CockatriceEliteBlue
CockatriceEliteGreen
CockatriceElitePurple
CockatriceEliteWhite
CockatricePvPBlack
CockatricePvPRed
CockatriceTourney


Birds of Prey
RavenGodBlack: raptor-like bird model used by Blaithe, etc. Could make a good special-model rare, though perhaps it'd be more appropriate as a feathered raptor
- See also "Elemental Birds" in the "Missing skins from untameable families" list


Skins for riding (sabre model) tigers that only exist with saddles:
All these mounts have colours that are different to those available on wild beasts. If "no saddle" versions were available they could be used on any of the three tiger models, otherwise they could only be tameable with some sort of saddle/harness. I've depicted them on the no-saddle model so that the harness is minimal:
RidingTigerSkinFlaxen
PVPRidingTigerSkinBlack
PVPRidingTigerSkinBlackSpotted
PVPRidingTigerSkinGrey
PVPRidingTigerSkinOrange: more red than regular tiger
PVPRidingTigerSkinPurple
PVPRidingTigerSkinWhite
PVPRidingTigerSkinYellow
TourneyRidingTigerSkinDark: similar to RidingTigerSkinBlackNoSaddle (Duskfang) but lighter and more purple
The following only currently exists for the spectral riding tiger (trading card mount) model, but works fine for opaque models. It's a beautiful icy blue when solid:
SpectralRidingTigerArmored


Crabs
Lobsters:
There are no tameable lobsters, but presumably they belong with crabs. They use the Makrura model. Note that Makrura are humanoids but the Azeroth model has been used for a number of (small) beasts, including the Rock Lobster in Stormwind and the Muddy Crawfish in Orgrimmar. If they were used for more beasts, it would probably be more fitting if they were given a different skeleton so the beast version was distinct from the humanoid one, maybe less upright.
There are two models with various skins of each:
Azeroth model :

Outland model :



Wolves
Horde PvP mount model - skins currently only available with armour and saddles:
This is a unique new model with a very different look. The following assumes that a "no saddle" version of the model exists in the art department's files or that they may choose to develop one in the future. Unfortunately without its armour this model is missing important pieces, like its ears and slices of its legs and tail. However I've chosen to depict it without the armour so you can see the fur better and get an idea of what it might look like with the missing parts filled in. Also note that the skin names oddly do not match the actual colours of the skins.
HordePvPMountBodyGreen
HordePvPMountBodyOrange
HordePvPMountBodyPurple
HordePvPMountBodyRed


Worms
Caterpillars have become tameable worms in MoP. A couple of older style maggots also were, for a time, but no longer.
Original larva / maggot model:
LarvaSkinDarkBrown: Silicate Feeder
LarvaSkinDarkPurple: Blood Maggot and Worn Bloodworm
LarvaSkinDarkRed: Vile Larva
LarvaSkinGreen: Gorishi Grub (was tameable in 5.1)
LarvaSkinWhite: Maggot (critter)
LarvaSkinYellow: a bunch of things including Silkwing Larva and Carrion Grub
Outland larva / maggot model:
LarvaSkinOutland
LarvaSkinOutlandBlack: Jormungar Tunneler
LarvaSkinOutlandBlue
LarvaSkinOutlandPurple: Mutated Grub
LarvaSkinOutlandRed: Amber Parasite (was tameable in 5.1)

Cool. Thanks for your feedback



These guys always confused me, but I'm pretty certain it's Acidmaw that has the unusual skin. I just checked Tankspot videos to confirm.

First of all, in mobile ("larva") form, they're both the standard purple colour of the regular tameable Jormungar. I guess Blizzard got lazy and cheated on that one! I assume this means they have no other skin for the mobile model so it's unlikely they'll ever bother to make them now

In static ("half buried") form, Dreadscale has the standard purple skin that matches the tameable Jormungar. Wowhead only shows the model for its mobile form, so it's not a good source for this one. But it's identical to Deep Jormungar.

In static form, Acidmaw, however, looks a very pale purple. Wowhead does show the model for this one, thankfully, so you can see it's quite different to the standard skin colour.



Yup, I'd definitely include those! Can you find one that's untameable? The only diseased skins I found on Petopia (Live and the Cataclysm section) all seemed to have tameable versions, but maybe I missed one.

Updated with references to untameable dog, crab and croc skins, but only in as much as to say that I won't detail them till they get sorted out more on the beta.

You could see if Rotclaw (the pet bear in Shadow Vault) is that color, but I'm not sure he is. The only place I've 100% seen this skin is in ModelViewer, but I'm not sure if you're using in-game beasts only or not

RE: Jormungars, I'd have sworn that one was always "blonde" and one was always purple. Just wasn't sure that Wowhead had the right skin matched to the right mob, but I assume Tankspot saved the day ^^

Some more existing models which could be made into tamable beasts:

Tallstrider Family:
Hawkstrider mount models(http://www.warcraftmounts.com/horde.php), armored or unarmored, would fit perfectly within this family. We already have one tamable mount model in-game, the Black War Wolf(http://www.wow-petopia.com/look/pvpridingdirewolfskindarkblack.html)

Dog Family:
The Perky Pug model(http://www.warcraftpets.com/wow.pets/mammals/canines/perky_pug.asp) could be implemented as a tamable beast in the game, perhaps as a guard dog in a gnome settlement?

Rotclaw seems to be the same diseased brown bear skin of a number of tameable beasts, like Deathclaw.

If a skin exists in the database, even if it's not in the game, I'd still love to add it. Can you point me to a link of the skin you've seen in modelviewer?

Oo, I like that. They really are like short plainstriders. They'd have to either add some wild ones to the Blood Elf starting zones (the mounts must have been tamed from somewhere!) or allow players to tame some of the ones from the evil blood elf factions in Outland.



That guy looks rather scary when he's expanded to full size! When blown up he'd definitely make a credible attack dog.

Thanks

I could see the hawkstriders in both both places, unarmored ones running around in Eversong and the armored mounts in Outland. They could also possibly add them to some of the new zones. It always seemed odd to me that the model doesn't exist in the wild; where'd the elves get them in the first place?

Added some skin details about crabs, crocs and dogs. I'm not sure if the info is still current or whether new tameables have been found in the latest patch (or if the Gilnean starting zone dogs can be accessed by non-Worgen now, somehow??). I'll have to get about more and check on these, but please correct any info I've got wrong. Thanks

Huge thanks to my signature creators!! Kurenio, Ashaine & TygerDarkstorm. Sorry to those I've forgotten. Huge thanks to Seilahyn for the amazing avatars she created.

Thanks, but they're all still the same skin that is used by the standard core hounds This isn't a list of untameable pets, but a list of pet skins (colours) where there are no tameable examples

Moved the 5 helboar skins to the "now tameable on beta" list. Yay!

Added the beetles that don't seem to have tameable skins yet, and included some details on the ones that do.

I'm starting to look through wowmodelviewer and locate skins I haven't seen on Wowhead.

Here's the first batch of updates, most of these found using wowmodelviewer:

Serpents:
- A couple more python snake colours (blue and yellow-black).
Silithids:
- Exposed-brain versions of the silithid colossi, in four colours (one is in the game but untameable)
Dragonhawks:
- DragonhawkSkin02 (light body with pink wings). Been in the game a long time (but untameable) but I somehow missed it.
Wasps:
- SilithidFlyerSkinOrange: a shiny copper colour Found using wowmodelviewer.
- SilithidFlyerSkinBlack: an inky blue colour Found using wowmodelviewer.
- SilithidWaspBossSkin2: fluoro purple (way more fluoro than the sapphire hive wasps). Found using wowmodelviewer.
Worms:
- JormungarLarvaDark: an inky-black version, found on wowmodelviewer.
- JormungarLarvaWhite: snowy white and purple version, found on wowmodelviewer.

Ok, this is a bit of a stretch, but if the hawkstriders could be in the tallstrider family maybe the Magic Rooster model would work too. Chicken of death? Yes please.
