Starlight Saber

Unread post by Benvolio »

Just tamed a Nightsaber cat in Suramar but I'm not seeing it in the Cats section on the main site so I figured I'd come here and check if it's already been catalogued.

Name is Starlight Saber, it shows up in Suramar next to an Herbalism World Quest to harvest some herbs.

Don't know if non-herbalists can see it.

Well spotted, thank you :)! I've added it.

I guess until another herbalist comes along to check we won't know for sure if it's only ever visible to herbalists on that specific quest, if it's visible to herbalists even before they start that quest, if its visible to hunters in group with them, or if it's visible to everyone when someone starts that quest. For now I've left that part as speculation.

Thanks again :)

Update: I went there solo on my hunter, who isn't a herbalist. I could see the Starlight Rose Cluster under the bridge and as soon as I approached the SS leapt out of the tree and attacked. It doesn't spawn when you approach, it's sitting up in the tree branches already :)

I've really enjoyed these neat little interactions they've added to professions.
There's another one in Highmountain that is not currently up. But it's a quartet of dancing red foxes that spawn for a gather Foxflower herbalism World Quest.

Under one of the Foxflower Cluster world quest pages, it says that if you dance with the foxes, they are no longer hostile. If this is true, do they become yellow or green?

I saw those on the beta! Then... they were gone. I thought they must have been removed. I guess they're still around then!

Late reply, but well, today's the first day I've noticed the quest up. Sadly the answer is Yellow, but not tameable.
Once you dance with one of them, that one will come dancing over to you then dance off into the distance despawning. But not tameable when Hostile or Neutral.
Beast Lore also confirms not tameable.
