WoW Petopia Community

Useful BfA-related links

Informative

• Potential new tameables (Petopia)
• Updated pet look comparison (Petopia)
• Hunter class changes (Wowhead)
• Stuff to get done before BfA launches (Wowhead)

Feedback / Bug Reports on WoW Official Forum (must have Alpha/Beta access to post)

• Updated /swapped pet looks - FEEDBACK
• BfA discussion / feedback
• BfA bug reports

What else should be on this list? Please add suggestions below. I don't want to clutter the list with every last BfA resource, but it would be good to have the most useful here, especially if they're hunter / pet related but also the most important general ones.

This guide here on what to do before Battle for Azeroth would also be a very useful link to have

macros that may be useful for testing and feedback:
/run print("Target NPC ID:", strmatch(UnitGUID("target" or 1),"-(%d*)-%x*$"))
/run print(UnitCreatureFamily("target"))

edit:
blizzard hasn't enabled these yet. :Þ

I swapped around the list and intend to link any official forum feedback/bug reports that we start, or are particularly relevant to us. It makes it easier to keep tabs on them. Are there any I missed?

I don't think that you missed anything. At least nothing comes to mind.

So glad you posted these...I need to get the mythic 15 done for my kitty (and kind relieved I can do all the other stuff later)

So Beta has officially begun and it means...the alpha forums have been wiped.

I'm sure Blizzard still has them archived, but I wonder if we should start some round 2 topics to keep them going and to show we're dedicated. Kind of a shame to lose access to all of the discussion that had been posted so far though.

I think we should. Like you said, Veph, it would show dedication to what we're trying to accomplish

ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

I get that Beta should have its own forum, but why wipe? Thats a good way to get a bunch of duplicate posts, but I guess thats the only option? Wain put a LOT of work into that post with particulars, and now it has to be from scratch. Irritating.

It is irritating. He really put so much hardwork and detail into it :/ Plus, since it is a new forum and a ton of new people have been invited, new threads can very quickly get buried.

I spoke to someone at Blizzard and got back a copy of my original post for look replacements. I’ll repost it later

Should we hit Q&A with questions about art direction and look replacements too?

Very glad to hear that you got it back, Wain

If possible, yes. Not sure if they'll answer them, but we'll never know unless we try

I've updated the OP with the new replacement looks feedback thread. It's :
https://us.battle.net/forums/en/wow/topic/20763146123
Please add comments with any other replacements that concern you!

The following posts are now gone, as they were on the deprecated Alpha forum:

• Pet Family ability revamp - announcement & feedback
• Flying pet animation change request
• Ghostly NPC loss of transparency bug

Please let me know if there are any new feedback or bug threads I could add here. Thanks!

I just wish we could get some engagement from the art team about it. When they turn the green and purple beetle into a green and blue, that is a conscious decision to not be faithful to the original. I would love to know why. It makes no sense, it seems to me that making the beetle purple would be just as easy as blue.

As far as I can tell, the art team don't have much of a history of being engaging, unfortunately.

Their session at the last Blizzcon was really good, but it's one of the few times they seem to make much comment.
