Snails?

Unread post by Bulletdance »

I know its extremely far fetched,but has anyone on the ptr checked out the snails to see if they can be tamed? They're so cute.

They don't even have attack animations, so they're probably not intended as pets.

They WOULD be awesome, though!

I would so tame one! Name it Gary. Attack would be "Corrosive Slime" or something. I would take a really long time to happen but it would be the deadliest thing when it does!

Snail flying mount, like some superheroes `fly` by gliding over ice they create, the snail should fly by gliding over its own floating slimetrack :O

When people object to the idea of attack snails, I like to remind them that we already have moths as tameable pets... and they're Ferocity, too... obviously an "Invertebrate" family is feasible. ;)

I think an attack snail would be adorable. ^_^
Although, I do have to wonder if it would run at the proper speed by your side and to your target...if it went super slow I think I'd get annoyed with it after a while. :lol:

I laughed out loud at the mental image of a snail latching on to someone's face and attacking them. :lol:

I checked yesterday as well, pretty much anything that I COULD beast lore....I did. The snails, the sea turtles (which would be awesome!), and other stuff like the other dinosaurs in Un'goro. Nothing yet.
