[13202] New tameable lion (Alliance guild mount style)

[Wain]

Wow, rare spawn #3. I speculated about this one in another thread, but I got the zone wrong:

Wandering the Twilight Highlands is a rare spawn level 85 lion called Sambas. He uses the new lion model that the Alliance guild mount and several lions in Uldum use (which is why I thought they might place a tameable one in Uldum). He's very pretty, even though it does look like he just had a perm

The location I found him on the map is here (basically due east of the Horde outpost called The Gullet):

UPDATE: found him at another spawn point, this time in the north-east of TH:

I also found him just before I ran into Karoma (new rare spirit beast wolf), so they don't share a spawn timer.

Ooooooh! Man, you've got a keen eye for rares! Thanks for all these wonderful posts! <3

[Dakonic]

Man your just on a hunting spree aren't you? This is awesome!

[Jangalian]

Oh god yes! Too bad he's not black, lmao. I love that old black lion. But thank the southern gods that we can tame this one!

SWEEEET!

I seem to have been immensely lucky! I assume these guys were added with the last patch last week. Perhaps they have their respawn timers turned up during testing so they're easier to find if you look? I'm not sure. After finding Terrorpene I've been scouring the zones a lot more closely while I watch Blizzcon

Call me insane, but I really don't like that thing. :/

[Vephriel]

Hehe, I'm not a fan of that model either, but I'm very happy for those who wanted one.

[Saturo]

Oh yeah, definitely! Gratz to all of you who like oversized-head-lion! :D

True, but some things we dislike slightly less.

This.

I have a question. How did you get your pet bar to be in that location?

[Adam-Savage]

Call me insane :/

I'll pass.

I do like the lion though because it's different then any other cat family. Same thing with loq or "vomitface" as Sat would say.

So you have levels of dislike? Scale of 1 - 5? XD

Sort of. It rises exponentially from -4.25cm^3 to e^1+g-85Pa.

Trust me, it all makes sense. :D

[Danielfboone]

I like the looks of it but I'll stick with the black one.

Wow, another fantastic find, Wain!

And HA, I knew this would be added. xD
