Re: "Gee, that would be a wicked pet!"...or would it?

Some very nice work! Only some of the pets look a bit too big for my taste (dragons and the firehawk, for example). I wish it wasn't an account risk... I'd be extremely tempted to model edit something into a black drake. Thank you for showing us these! I am now hoping that, one day, stags become pet...

Re: I Am The Pet Killer

I will say, the idea of trying to squeeze any form of hate from these forums makes me laugh.

And I mean that as a compliment (to the forum regulars).

Re: The New Eight Rares

I will admit, when I saw the final list of all 8 pets I was a bit upset. I wanted some unique looking pets, not 3 spirit beasts and 5 spider reskins. But looking over them now, I'm kinda glad they aren't all that great, because now I won't have to make room in my stables for them. I'm probably going...

Re: White Whale Post #2.

Mine are King Krush and Madexx. I found King Krush once, and that was after using my Wormhole Generator to port to Sholazar. I spawned it and _NPC-scan went off immediately, so I swooped down and targeted him, only to find that a nelf hunter had just finished the tame. I was pretty bummed. :( Madexx...

Re: AMAZING PTR Change for us Hunters.

I'm very happy with this news. While I understand the depth happiness gave to pets and the fact that it really wasn't an issue as long as you had the glyph, I'm glad that I have one less thing to manage with my. Plus the change to the glyph sounds nice, Chromaggus was looking a tad small compared to...

My lack-luster taming stories

I like to browse these forums for pet news/discussions, and every time I see somebody post a great story about their taming adventures, I can't help but feel like I'm missing out on the "thrill of the hunt" so to speak. All of my tames, save for Skoll, have been simple "go to spawn po...

Re: What would people say to... (BM Exotic Redesign)

I've been kicking around a similar idea, except instead of removing the exotic status from pets, just give every pet their own exotic ability that is unlocked through the talent tree, and can only be unlocked via the 4 extra points BM gets. I think this would solve the BM AoE issue, as you could tam...

Re: How to tame Chromaggus

Re: To tame or to kill - hunter dilemma

IMO, it comes down to first-come/first served if the mob gives something special like a mini-pet or achievement. With other pets that aren't linked to anything special and are just rare mobs that look cool, I believe hunters should have the right-of-way when they want to tame it. The killer has noth...

Grats! I was doing something similar today. While everybody was busy with Cata I went looking for rare mobs. I logged in and the first thing I see is Gondria sitting in a corner. After I pick her up I head over to Sholozar to look for Loque'Nahak and ended up find Aotona instead. :)
