Also, the world boss Earthbreaker summons red scarabs, but they are not flagged as tameable.

A special red tameable Aqir Impaler has been found - thanks to Siok from Secret Finders Discord. This is the only one I've found, in this exact spot. Sort of like a shiny Pokemon!

So there was a bug - now fixed - that prevented Vulpera and Mechagnomes from learning Tome of Dinomancy as they were not added to the eligible race list for the book. If you racechanged to the new allied races from 8.3 until yesterday, your ability to tame Direhorns was wiped and you'll need to rebu...

Although most toads are an okay size, Bufo and Marsh Gulpers are still incorrectly sized on both live and PTR as being teensy-tiny along with the Direhorns from Isle of Giants. Theorized to be because of model sharing between Hex/Polymorph: Direhorn and the game thinking hunter pets having these mod...

No, it does not affect your glitch tames. I have faction changed, race changed and server changed, and none of these affect your hunter pets, appearance-buffed or otherwise.

Nice find! For those that missed out, I wouldn't feel too down. Blizzard is usually pretty quick about fixing inaccurate pet classes, even if they lag on other glitch fixes.

EDIT: Ah, saw your post. I have a list of all buffed pets visually, but I'm afraid I didn't keep logs of damage buffed ones. I recall the tameable nightsabers in End Time: Tyrande having a massive damage reduction buff and the Elite Silithid in 40 man AQ before the pink and orange larvae-with-legs b...

The cynicism that comes from knowing Blizzard has little to no incentive to fundamentally ease the tedium of leveling bites into my enjoyment. Everyone knew full well why they hacked apart RaF, nerfed heirlooms, flat-out removed all but one experience boost pot and started banning people for using t...

Marsh Gulpers, Bufo and Stunted Direhorns are still bugged in 8.2 from being incorrectly tied into the Hex/Polymorph: Direhorn spells and thus cause said tamed hunter pets that use the Hex/Direhorn models to shrink down to Hex size, which makes them almost unseeable in size.

I know that private servers for Vanilla to WOTLK retained the Eyes of the Beast code so I figured it wasn't lost forever, but it'd be really nice if they could get it working again. Wonder what changed in Cata that broke it?

It is likely the other hunter is using the (glyph?) that makes hunter pets smaller.

Speaking of beasts in 8.2, I checked on tamed Marsh Gulpers/Bufo/Stunted Direhorns on the PTR, and it seems they're still bugged and shrunk sadly Hopefully a patch can fix them up to a proper size someday.

Bufo and Stunted Direhorns are still bugged size-wise; both from the issues with Hex and Polymorph: Direhorn affecting hunter pets that aren't actually hex'd or Polymorphed.

Ah yes, the 800-cut versus record profits...

Due to an error regarding Hex and Polymorph: Direhorn's coding when APPLIED to a hunter pet, whenever a hunter pet has the same model as a Polymorph/Hex spell, the hunter pet's model is automatically shrunk to that size - despite not being hexed or Polymorphed. Bufo and Marsh Gulper size has been an...

It has not so far.

Confirmed, Jani is also not tameable on Horde side.

It also puts the baby Direhorns at risk for being removed or altered. Prior to this, their size wasn't an issue. But now since they are so small, some that have it might decide to exploit it in PvP. Haven't done anything about the frogs despite them being the same for months (and are even smaller, ...

I think this might be a side effect of the September 12 hotfixes: Player pets polymorphed by Tome of Polymorph: Direhorn will no longer be giant baby dinosaurs. Since they fixed the size that polymorphed players become, I think it stands to reason that these direhorn pets were indirectly and uninte...

Omg it's so cute... I'm sorry to those of you who were attached to the big size though! I wonder if they did it intentionally? I never grabbed one of them myself but I might have been tempted if I knew they'd be teeny. :lol: This is a little TOO tiny... like, Bufo size tiny aka PVP concerning tiny....
