Oh sorry, I misread - there are a bunch of people who can't do copies and a bunch who can't get in at all. Hopefully everything gets resolved tomorrow!

I have a feeling these are going to be everywhere come live lol sounds like the making of a very popular pet!

BTW I got caught in a couple loading screen loops myself. Whenever my toon had the faction change option, I did that (which resets your toon to Org/SW) and I was able to log in. May be worth a shot?

I really, really hope they won't go the yak and mushan way... /knock-knock-knock on the wood

BTW, did anyone check those? And possibly rams, too?

Just... WOW. I've wanted the Spirit of the North since the first time I saw it, and the other ones too, so this is definitely AWESOME. Having stable dilemma again...

People keep asking about those :/ The ones I checked are definitely not tameable. As expected.

I really wonder if the other 2 Cloud "Serpents" labeled as beasts have a diet (on the public test realm).

You have to aggro the lower one midair. You'll take some fall damage, but it'll come down to you, provided you don't kill it.

Side note: I just tamed a few arcane wyrms on the PTR to look at the skins, and I find that their movement is twitchy and awkward at their tamed size. I don't know if that's fixable, but in case it is, I thought I'd report it. It's not at all pretty.

Has anyone checked the "python" model serpents? You know, the ones that are usually critters but they blow up to be huge in Wailing Caverns and Krasarang Wilds?

Edit: Nevermind! I saw the posts about these models in another thread.

It was believed afterward that the man was a lunatic, because there was no sense in what he said.

For all those who are interested in looking this feisty creature over and have wowmodelviewer, the actual name of the model is "netherdragon".
