Re: Naleidea Rivergleam.

The purple raven is not a pet look that's obtainable for players. The closest you could get is summoning a regular crow/raven pet and using the Spirit Wand toy on it, but that makes it a blue ghost instead of purple.

Re: Anyone miss the older models?

I found another nice model improvement with an off-putting example, it’s the bone and gracile spiders. The way the eyes are placed are so weird, like it has no head as opposed to the older models. The tarantulas look great so no criticism for those at all, but those are weird. The bodies and legs f...

Re: Handicapped pets, or ones that could pass for handicapped?

Hmm, interesting concept! And tricky to find ideas for. My first thought was some of the saddled or armored creatures, you could headcanon that they're wearing some sort of accessibility equipment, or a harness, similar to how disabled dogs can have wheelchairs. Nothing's going to quite look like th...

Re: Help an old man catch up please.

Either way, it is not likely I'll be doing anything of current dungeon:ish nature, as I can no longer endure the stress and mental fatigue of random groupings, it's either with guildmates (which I don't have) or solo, so I'm okay to remain 1-2 expansions behind current content where I can go at my ...

Re: Season of Discovery - Any Pet Changes?

SoD is based on Vanilla with new additions, but otherwise it's all still the foundational Classic realm and systems are from that, I don't think pet families or the pet system has changed drastically, the only new "family" I know of right now is the Wyvern, but it's not actually a new fami...

Re: Mend Pet changes??

You only need one button on your bar to use both of these abilities - Pet Utility - if you don't want to have extra buttons. Not sure if it's just me but I cant drag the utility into my bar...only the different abilities Oh really? I was wondering why so many people keep saying they have the stuff ...

Re: First five pets in stable to match pets you bring with you

I wonder if perhaps an easier method would be for them to add some type of Glyph - "Your Animal Companion always matches your currently summoned pet", that way it could automatically mirror whichever pet you have active, for people that like to have a matching pair at all times. The only i...

Re: Season of Discovery - Any Pet Changes?

My friend picked up this rune(?) which was interesting as stags/deer weren't tameable in Vanilla, I'm curious if there are other additional beast tames or families added, I don't have time to play it myself right now though.

Re: Nah'qi, Ember of Regrowth

While I don't personally have plans to tame this spirit beast, I'm somewhat invested in the result of it now. It really is a shame how volatile this whole event has become. I just don't think a pet is worth creating this much hostility between players, so I personally disagree with how the Cinder wa...

Re: Nah'qi, Ember of Regrowth

We have 4 hunters in my raid group, so far none of us have seen a drop on normal full clears and partial heroics. I've yet to hear of any drops in any of my communities or other friends yet either. It could be that it's a rare drop from other bosses/difficulties, but I do feel that there would have ...

Re: Mend Pet changes??

The latest patch indeed bugged this behaviour - Mend Pet/Revive Pet no longer switches depending on the status of your pet, apparently it's something to do with Call of the Wild interfering. Hopefully it'll be fixed in a future patch, but for now I've just dragged the separate Mend Pet and Revive Pe...

That screenshot is a tooltip from the addon Handynotes, it displays helpful information and location of treasures, rares, secrets, etc. With the source unknown I'm skeptical if the information is verified or if they're just putting in a guess for now, either way it's not technically an official sour...

The exploit-tamed owls have been removed from players who used that method, so don't feel like you missed out if you chose not to try it.

Re: Nah'qi, Ember of Regrowth

I'm not sure if the druid form and the hunter pet items will be tied, but if I go to the barbershop on my druid and preview the flight form, it does list the mount specifically as the source.

Re: Warthin Hero Talents

I agree with OP's speculation. I'm confident that Pack Leader will go to BM and SV, they are the two pet focused specs and while MM can still use a pet, it's the only spec that doesn't *require* one and Pack Leader sounds clearly themed around a pack of beasts. Sentinel meanwhile brings to mind the ...
