That's a fantastic color swap! I didn't even recall that there WERE arcane wyrms in DB until you mentioned them. xD Far less generic now! :D

.....if that skin can be considered generic in any way. xD

Now this is a most pleasant surprise! I remember wanting one of those serpents as a pet or a mount way back in the day, never would have guessed it'd actually happen.
Those Arcane Wyrms are just gorgeous, I think I shall be direly tempted to pick one up if this hits live.

Yeah, the blue fits the area beautifully and it's a really lovely colour.

I'm gonna make one last attempt to get into the Nexus to check the Crazed Mana-Wyrms in there. They've never been attackable, and they may still not be. But worth a try.

Refresh my memory please. Are the arcane worms in the Nexus white, or a different color?

I believe they were white, but as Wain said, untargettable. They'd fall to the ground dead every so often, which is why I remember the color. ;)

Ok, I killed a third toon. Froze up and now hangs on log in. I wasn't even at the instance, just somewhere over BT. Sigh. Creating yet another pre-made and then one last attempt...

Argh, is that how you got in? I can't even make premades, I just get an error each time. Hopefully this is all fixed up tomorrow though, can't wait to get back in there. :)

My first two were ones I had on there from last PTR back in Cata. These last two have been premades, as I ran out of hunters.

You guys remember that... oh what was it called. Something Hydra. It was an arcane wyrm that was on beta for like, one build and then it vanished. Wouldn't that be sort of kind of maybe to me at least funny if that guy came back on live and that was Blizzard's "Here's your hydra" joke of this xpac?
I mean... okay I would laugh but I guess that'd be super trolltastic. <_<
Sorry I'm just in acceptance that what they say is true and they don't like the model. >.> Don't hurt me. D:

Man those are cool.

So I wonder if this sets a precedent for other oddball creatures joining established pet families......

Pterrordax=Bat?

Looks like The Nexus is a no-go atm. Another toon trapped in limbo trying to enter. Ah well, they were the least likely to be tameable anyway.

Isn't the worm family exotic? Or am I remembering wrong?

FTFY. Only non-exotics bring that buff, so every hunter has a need of it.
