BTW, I cant find any info on the new family in the usual database file. So either it's not added yet or it's buried in hotfix / cache data which I can't retrieve. So I can't glean info on diet, default ability or family icon. It's possible this will have to wait for the next build.

Won't be a problem on my hunter... since I play her so much. But how the hell do they expect us to do this on every alt we have? I love mounts, but no way am I going to do this multiple times for a class-specific one...

This news has made me very happy! I have wanted to tame Hippogryphs, Gryphons, and Wyverns for many, many years now. I don't care how long it takes me; those winged beauties shall be mine someday!

Thank you Blizzard!

So does this mean those that are behind on their artifact which isn't fully artifacted cannot get this til like years later after the ap farm?

It sounds like it would take a while. Not years but a while. If you're not busy gathering AP, try to at least keep the artifact research work orders going. The faster you get those done the more AP you'll get per item.

Here's an easier-to-view page for all potential feathermane looks (that we know of), regardless of whether they're known to be in the game or not:

How awesome would a fiery hippogryph be? :)

This gets all my woots!

I do hope they let the book become purchasable without the artifact traits on the PTR so they can be checked out (and tested of course ;))

I agree Wyvern seems odd. I'm glad they are being considered of course, but as been said, no feathers. Perhaps a broader name such as Hybrid, Flightmane, or Soarlords would feel better including them. Plus Featherman refers to a specific species in WoW. Calling the family that would be like calling Scalehide family "Mushan" despite being more than that. Maybe the family name is a placeholder or could be considered to be changed to make the wyvern make more sense.

However I won't complain if they stay in the group because at this point I have completely abandoned trying to make sense of Blizzard's pet family naming logic.

They have already done that with Rhinos and Clefthoofs. Instesd of calling them something to include both, they just call the whole family Clefthoofs.

Awwww yeah~

CRAP I'm going to have to clean some stable slots.

Though, just to make sure I understand right... you have to purchase the Tome of Hybrid Beasts (to tame the new family), it isn't given to you for earning your class mount? I ask because I thought the new family was supposed to be a reward that tied with the campaign order/new mount stuff, not an additional grind/lock behind AP.

I mean if that's the way it is, ok I'll live with it because the new family is awesome. But I wanted to enjoy the new family while I was earning the new traits and levels, not months later lol
Yeah, took a screenshot of the requirement https://twitter.com/BendakWoW/status/831983450596978688

We don't know how long it will take to unlock the base traits yet though.
Ah no, nooooooooooo. I didn't even finished grinding AP on my main spec, I don't want to grind for Titanstrike :c

This 100% for me to.

I am a little nervous because Legion's been out how long and I still haven't completed an artifact on one character hunter or not. I'm working on it but I just don't have the ability to dedicate a lot of time to grinding AP

I hardly play now and I'm finished with AP on my main spec and within 5 points of the other two. :mrgreen:

Well considering the 'unlock all artifact traits' color tint is unlocked pretty simply (http://www.wowhead.com/achievement=11144), I'm sure it's not going to count the infinite trait.

I'm glad Owlcats are finally being tameable (Should have been from the start), but I sure hope it's not Beast Mastery only. I really, REALLY want to stay Survival and have an Owlcat.

Oops, just added one I missed: the spectral wyvern! Like its gryphon counterpart, maybe it could be added as a spirit beast somewhere :)

I wonder if the armored gyrphons/wyverns will ever be tameables?
