that untameable animal you check on from time to time?

Unread post by Tsundere »

Hey there,

Curious if there are other hunters out there, who like me, have that one untameable animal you would love to tame & even though you know it's untameable, and likely always will be, you still go back and " just check" from time to time just to be certain???

For me it's Runty (beast) from Blackrock Caverns, & on occasion the whale shark (lol) I know they'll never be tameable but I still have to check from time to time to just triple check that beast lore status. I forget the event but the whale shark never crossed my mind until that event where the GMs spawned a whole heap of them in the cities, forget the reasoning behind it now but ever since that day I thought for kicks and giggles whipping out a whale shark would be entertaining 8-)

I tend to throw a beast lore on the Korkron wolves every time I head into SoO. I know there is no reason for them to change them, but it's a habit now. There are enough examples of other armored beasts that are tamable though, that I think it would be shame these guys don't end up being so somewhere down the track.

Yep, I do the exact same thing! Every time I'm there.

Otherwise it'd probably be Rocs or Dreadravens that I tend to check randomly on. I don't suspect they'll actually be tameable, but it's fun to hope.

Silly question, but do you head into SoO often? I'm curious as to the reason!

Personally I have been checking Horridon (and to lesser extent, Oondasta) every now and then when PTR gets updated. It's probably just a false hope, but maybe someday...

It's obviously a newer thing than some of these, but I always check the Thunderhorns in Stormheim when I run by. It's my favourite of the yak/oxen skins and so naturally it's the only one that's in the game but not tameable anywhere, lol :x

I'd love to have the Unicorns / Runners and the Cloud Serpents they are classified as beasts after all!

Ji-kun, Amani bears, armored boar from Ashran, any of the many dinos (Un'Goro for example), regular snake/python models like from Throne of Thunder or Wailing Caverns, ground-rooted worms... really, just about any creature we don't already have access to that's mildly interesting will get a beast lore tapped on it if I'm ever in the area. Sometimes even try to tame anyway if beast lore says I can't.

I like to check void hounds, especially the Hounds of Culuthas in Netherstorm. Also, dinosaurs around Isle of Thunder, especially the Zandalari Battlebeast (armoured direhorn) that periodically attacks the Shado-Pan cave, Horridon, and the Loa-Infused Bladetalons and Tamed Bladetalons (black and green armored raptors).

I would say wind riders, but we're finally getting those.


Those were the last on my list of what I wanted.

The "python" style serpents, for sure! I don't care if they're old models, I still think they're lovely.

Freakin' diemetrodons. Whyyyy. Why aren't they part of the crocolisk family in the first place?! They use the same bloody rigging. I just... urgh. Gimme the sailbacks already.

someday I'll find someplace to host a sig that isn't stupid money-grubbing photobucket

Armored Kor'kron wolves in Siege of Orgrimmar, Oondasta, Horridon and, in general, armored dinosaurs on Isle of Thunder. I have a thing for armored pets, but sadly there is only so few of them.

Would just about do anything for a chance of pet that uses Alliance's Prestigious / Vicious Warsaber mount model, though it's less likely to happen than even Oondasta :D

The ones I always check when I come across would be:

• The Kor'kron Dire Wolves in SoO.
• Rams (I honestly don't understand why these aren't tameable already and in the goat family. The goat family could really use another model in it.)

Druids. I want a Tauren cat.

EDIT: Forgot to mention; I use Beast Lore on druids all the time. Same-faction druids get upset with me sometimes.

Before 7.2 everytime I was doing the swarm world quests on my Demon Hunter I was always wishing we could tame them on our hunters then with 7.2 the first new pet I went and got was Snowfeather along with hatchling now all I need is the mount and I will have my Snowfeather family.
