Re: Beta 10.0 Beast Thread
Okay, that answers my question! Thank you! ♥worgpower wrote: ↑Thu Nov 03, 2022 12:33 pmThe taming skill hasn’t changed a bit, just the family the cloud serpent belongs to, dragonkin taming is not required for cloud serpents, if you’ve tamed one in Shadowlands, it’s going to have both bite and claw when summonedLee wrote: ↑Thu Nov 03, 2022 12:20 pm So I apologize, I took a very very long hiatus from WoW, missing almost all of Shadowlands... I saw some stuff about taming lesser dragonkin in the last few pages, and it is my understanding that the cloud serpents will be switched to this family upon prepatch.
I currently have cloud serpent taming unlocked. Upon the 10.0 patch, will I suddenly be unable to tame them without also having the specific Lesser Dragonkin taming book?

Re: Beta 10.0 Beast Thread
I'll get around to making a Warcraft Mounts one as well.
If you haven't used Mastodon, it's a little different. You create a profile on a server (mine is mastodon.social) but can follow people on any server. So the server doesn't restrict what you see, it's just where your profile is housed. I believe servers might have different policies on behaviour, but they're also restricted by an overall policy against certain types of rude, abusive, and discriminatory behaviour.

Re: Beta 10.0 Beast Thread
A petopia discord would be great, especially for discussions, we can all nickname ourselves to our forum names in that discord if we end up having one, if we want to have discussions about a certain topic, we can discuss it in discord, we definitely should still use the forum for new hunter finds and news regarding anything coming in the futureWerebearGuy wrote: ↑Fri Nov 18, 2022 2:23 pm Why not set up a discord instead of using Mastodon? I'm sure most users already have discord for at least one thing by now, and having an instant Petopia forum for brief discussions and to talk during site downtime would be far more appealing than using Mastodon's awful site. Plus, I just really don't want to download more useless apps on my phone; I already have ten weeb gacha games, and that's more than enough lol.
Re: Beta 10.0 Beast Thread
I'll think about setting up a Petopia Discord, much as I dislike it, though.

Re: Beta 10.0 Beast Thread
Anyway, I don't want to drive this thread any more off topic. I'll start a new one once I have a clearer idea of how it's going to work.

Re: Beta 10.0 Beast Thread
- Petopia Announcements channel that only you can post in, where you can post site and forum updates (such as if something's down, when the site comes back up, or just general improvements)
- Warcraft Mounts Announcements channel that, like the above, is strictly for site-related updates
- Q&A channel where people can ask pet related questions, including help finding shards for rare pets
We don't need much; Discord should not be the alternative to the site's forums, unless the forums are just permanently gone for whatever reason. It should primarily just be a means of pushing announcements and news with a means to communicate in the event that the site is down, as well as having a proper alternative to a Twitter-like feed that requires little to no effort to browse when that inevitably crashes and burns, and nothing more. No offtopic, no general discussion, no silly stuff; just site status and news with a channel for outage communication. As for moderation, it's probably best to pick people on the forums you trust, ask them in a DM for the discord handle once everything is all set up, and put them in the security guard seats.
Just my two cents as someone that has like 20 different discords that are full of too many people talking at once.

Re: Beta 10.0 Beast Thread
- Rep (now renown) is a passive thing, not something you tryhard for. Valdrakken will just happen naturally, so don't push yourself to get tameable dragons day one.
- Keep an eye out for tuskarr-related stuff, especially fishing. Ottuk taming is still a mystery, though there's plenty of tuskarr stuff we haven't fully investigated, such as the special fishing profession content.
- Don't try to tame quest mobs right away, unless you are somehow alone. There will be people trying to do the content, and questers take priority over vanity collection. Be kind, not greedy.
- Be quick to tell everyone about any unique finds. If we find fun glitch pets, share with the community! God knows we've not had many in recent times, and it'd be a shame to miss out on them.
- Remember what you do. If you discover something new, and it's not "just there" for everyone else, do what you can to retrace your steps. Information is the most important aspect in every field, after all.
- Bring a coordinates addon like Tomtom, and be sure to let everyone know where you found something if it's not super common. Again, information is valuable!
- Be mindful of your stable slots. I can't be the only one who realized his main hunter only has 60 slots left vacant.
- Don't rush. You'll have plenty of time to collect all the pets for a few years.
I do want to issue a fun challenge to whoever is interested though; as soon as I get the tome to tame dragons, I'm immediately rushing to Wailing Caverns and aiming for an orange Deviate Faerie Dragon. I wanna see if someone can get better RNG than me and beat me to it. There's no prize of course, but I just wanna have a fun race. The only proof needed is having the tamed pet's name above the right color pet! To efficiently farm for the color;
- Enter Wailing Caverns in the Northern Barrens
- As soon as you load, type /tar deviate faerie
- You will see it if it spawns, and you'll see what color it is in the portrait
- If it's orange, go tame it, screencap it, and see if you post before me! The pet's name must be "Deviate Faerie Dragon", and visible in the screenshot.
Whatever thread we use for posting our 10.0 tames in is where you should post your screencap. To whoever takes me up on the race; good luck!

Re: Beta 10.0 Beast Thread
I agree with everything you say, there’s no rush to get all the pets, I’m probably going to focus on the leveling first before I tame anything, but the lesser dragons are now my biggest dream and priority to have as a hunter pet, when it comes to rep, I’ll probably prioritize valdrakken accord, and do everything I can in each day/night when I play, plus valdrakken accord is the biggest rep with dragon customizations too, like bronze for a time lost proto drake, plus you gain 4 renown with valdrakken and 2-3 renown with other factions when you progress, can’t stop thinking about lesser dragonkin. Must. Get. Tome.
