*coughs* Don't mind the mushan herd walking by. They're just, you know, making sure everyone knows how awesome they are. ;)

Not really surprised, and I won't cry if they aren't tamable on live. I really hope we get clefthooves and stags this time <3

I definitely feel the porky should be a tameable pet. The worms just seem too out there for me personally for them to continue their allowance. XD

/edit

Wait, mushan aren't tameable? I totally thought they would be! Here's hoping those come in too.

Remember: cranes are classified as 'Tallstriders'. So technically *they're* not 'new beasts' either at the moment! But it's still early. :)

I saw that coming, but I do honestly think Porcupines will become tamable. Just… bigger. xD

ok then.
Then id like Mana serpents http://www.wowwiki.com/Mana_serpent Marsh walkers http://www.wowwiki.com/Marsh_Walker and Mana wyrms http://www.wowwiki.com/Mana_wyrm and a new wolf please thank you.

anyway. i was afraid this would be the case on the worms but for some reason i found porkypines to be beliveable pets. LOOK AT THOSE SPIKES!
Im curious to what they may plan to make tameable or if its just ideas they have in the back of their minds that may or may not see the light before the end of beta.

While this feature of the Grimtotem Spirit Guide wasn't exactly intended... - it will still be possible in future for everyone who wishes to tame this NPC to do so

Yes, the silk worms' current model is just too low poly (although it Would look better if the tamed size were smaller). But silkworms Should be tameable! Blizz will have to pry Dapple from my beta's cold dead hands.

So apparently I am the weirdest person ever. :lol:

I actually saw the silkworms as a more likely candidate than the porcupines (with a slightly smaller tamed size). :P

I wouldn't mind giving up porcupines if it meant getting hydras and maybe mushan.

Hmm im not to sure but the silkworm could go into the worm family, would fit alright there. I mean its cuter then most but you know gotta share the MoP cuteness. And the porcupines they have spikes, fel boars have spikes, it could work! (im vying for you kally!) Or they could be put in a new family called the vermin family, with a new type of blind skill or interrupt.

If we dont get the silkworms id love to finally be able to tame the gryeworms, I mean we have some pets that are elemental like the shale spiders, gem cats, rune dogs so why not them to? And the Quilen I think they should go into the dog family mostly cause.. dogs need some love but it would work in the cat family to.. im flexible.

Hydras of course would be awesome, stags. Id love to see some new pet families like the Mushan, maybe some new variations on old families as well. Would love to see a new type of devilsaur and corehounds. New spirit beast would rock *nod nod* maybe something other then a cat.. spirit beast devilsaur or hydra would be cool.

thank you Ashaine and Kurenio!!!!
