Random Pet Family Appreciation Thread: Moths!
Random Pet Family Appreciation Thread: Moths!
Our first family is the "ferocious" moth family!
Image from WoW TCG.
Kind of disappointed my first roll is a family rarely seen tamed, but I'm sure we have hunters with moths out there.
Moth facts
~Model was introduced in Burning Crusade, but not made a tameable family until Wrath.
~Moths have seven different skin colors.
~Moths have no rare members.
~Moths have one unique skinned named member, Aspatha the Broodmother with a beautiful white skin.
~Back in Wrath, moths where tamed by 0.3% of level 80 hunters. Making them the second lowest tamed family, tied with bats. (Source)
~Back in Wrath, mothskinblue was the most tamed skin at 33.3%. Mothskinbeige was the least with 4.9%. (Source)
~Serenity Dust, moth's special ability, used to give the moth a buff to increase its attack power and self heal.
~Four minipets match moth skins, they are Blue Moth Egg, Red Moth Egg, White Moth Egg and Yellow Moth Egg. If you have a moth you will most likely be able to have a matching mini moth baby to go with.
~Before Camouflage was fixed to show alpha parts of models, when camoed a moth's wings and fuzzy antennae would completely disappear!
~No, you can't feed a moth cloth in game.

Re: Random Pet Family Appreciation Thread: Moths!
I do have a moth on Wassa. Meet Jinai.
His name is the Japanese word for dust or dirt, named after the moth's special move Serenity Dust. I don't use him much, but Jinai has so much personality. I use an addon called Tongues to make my pets talk (although I edit the lua heavily as the default doesn't give all the pets a language to speak in) and Jinai is one of my more talkative pets. If you could understand his moth language he would greet you with a "ohai dere." During battle he throws insults such as "lol nub i pwn u" and "qq more nub." Yus, he talks in internet troll speak and thinks he's a tough guy, but... he's a moth. No one takes him seriously as a tough pet, not even Wassa.

Aww, I wanted to feed my moth a [Frayed Robe]! xD
I don't have a pet moth ... Perhaps I should tame one and give it a shot?

I'm a little sad they fixed the camo bug; I miss my floating grub! The Teromoths have one of the few appearance buffs that I'd actually like to have--a slight greenish under-lighting.
Re: Random Pet Family Appreciation Thread: Moths!
Might go get another one.

I think I should use her more often for random dungeons so she'll see more light again.
Re: Random Pet Family Appreciation Thread: Moths!
Firefly was, if I remember right, the all white moth skin. She was a random tame picked up when I wanted more pets and was redoing my stables. Firefly ended up being the only pet surviving the tame spree, until I ended up letting Firefly free for other pets. While I don't have Firefly anymore, I really did enjoy the moth skin and would totally use it on another hunter.

I have the yellow moth on Myriana and I think they look pretty good together. Sadly I do not have a screenshot of Myri and Harmony together. Bah. I'll have to remedy that and come back to this thread.
