On that note, you can actually end up on that island after dying EVEN IF YOU'RE NOT TRYING TO GET THERE. Which is terribly inconvenient sometimes. There is a graveyard on the Furnace side as well, but getting back is usually easier, due to the occasional buffs you get on the island that enhance your jumping.

So 8 special rares and an unknown amount of regular rares! Interesting. What PTR realm are you guys on anyway ?
I believe if you can believe out of nothing an explosion (big bang) happened then how far fetched can god be?

We're primarily on Anasterian, Adam, though we're having much better luck with spawns on other servers.

I figured as much, I got my toon on the same server. However I had not been doing the daily's in some time, so alot of the areas are still phased or I can't get to them.

Looks like they're putting in the black/red looking pets now cause they look corrupt.

and it's funny no ones screaming "Reskins!" cause...they are. XD Just a crab and a hunched cat. Oh the irony is delicious.

I dont think there has been any actual brand new skins. Essentially almost all are just the same basic model but textured or colored differently. The spiders essentially three are unique colored atleast, and it could be like madexx just more madexxs up at a time ^.^ who will kill you.. oh the horrific horror.. the gondrias, well how many people complained about the purple color, now you can choose blue or white. I say it and will say it again Ban is different from olm, hes a heck of alot bigger, his effects are amazing and hes a 100% more vibrant then olm. The crab, shiny gem crab! Its shiny! And Skarr may be somewhat hunched back but in my view because of the texture, his big sunken eyes he is pretty different then the other hunched back cats who essentially have glowy eyes not blackmaws eyes.

So essentially 4.2 is choices.

Do you want a spider? If so which one? Orange, purple, and green you have little choice but to camp (unless we find those baby greens again) or you can take a chance and get the huge yellow spider or risk certain death with skitter.

Do you like crabs? Noone likes crabs.. but I mean these crabs! No you can get an extremely shiny unique skinned crab.

Do you love cats, and like the buff they bring? Well you can try for the stone cat in molten front,

4.2 is about the challenge of the tame, a new way of thinking for hunters where we have to think and prepared before a tame besides just placing a trap down and hitting tame. If you want one go for it, if not wave and continue on your merry way (or tell some other hunters :))

Basically guys the thing is only 2 of them will people get confused with as just being a common mob. The others they will know you for sure you worked your butt off to get, and its the hard tames that make pets, atleast for me more special then some I stumbled upon for kicks.

thank you Ashaine and Kurenio!!!!

Hmmmm might just have to tame this if I come across it on my travels. Not one I will actively camp, saving that for the gem cat and the purple spider.
