End of the Long Hunt (loque)

Since level 76, a few short weeks after Wrath launched, I've been crawling over Sholazar Basin in the vain hope of finding the elusive Loque'nahak. Not just because he's a rare. Not just because he has a unique skin and sounds. Not just because he's the consort of Har'koa. It's all of that, and some...

Re: Pets that you think should be removed or fixed.

Ditto previous posts about non-removal. 'nuff said

One the subject of pets that need to be FIXED, however...

Seagull - Needs a real flight animation, not just idle flap
Mining Monkey - Needs an auto-attack and a better grip on its pick
Demon-dogs - Needs a swim animation

Re: Your favorite new pet sofar.. (and your faithful standb

I am smitten with my new fox Tibs, as well as Amarok's new skin (went from vargul blighthound to beryl hound - the way I wanted from the start.) I see myself using them for PvE content, but when the chips are down and it needs to be done right I fall back to Rak'shiri for damage output, or to Felfro...

Re: What pets have you tamed so far?

Over the last 2 days I managed Gezzarak (first try!), a whitetail fox, an iceheart jormungar, a beryl hound, a felboar, a seagull and a black mining monkey. I'll need to keep running DM until the brilliant macaw spawns. Holding off getting a beetle until I can get into Uldum, and I think I might nab...

Re: Seagulls can fly!

Their flight animation seems a little stiff compared to some of the other birds (ie they fly strangely upright) but the fact that they can actually FLY after enemies more than makes up for it I think.

Re: Your main pet when The Cataclysm comes?

I'm going to be starting a baby worgen on Korialstrasz, not sure what sort of pets he'll have so I don't want to make definite plans.

For Arkiss, the 5 on the Call Pet are:

Amarok - Beryl Hound
Rakshiri - Rak'shiri
Felfrost - Gezzarak
Luka - Brilliant Macaw
Tibs - Whitetail Fox

Re: Help picking a pet

Some critters have unique skins without being rares, so be sure to check out the Petopia section on "unique looks" if you're intent on finding something truly out of the ordinary. If the skin doesn't matter but the species does, these are some of the rarer pets wandering around SoE: FEROCI...

Re: Do you guys name your mounts?

Re: Gezzarak now tameable AGAIN!

I've doggedly hung on to my blue and purple warp chaser since BC...but only because Gezz wasn't tameable after I found out about her (I skipped basically all of Terokkar when I was leveling, d'oh!) but come Cata I'll have to say goodbye to Coldstar.

Re: Pets We All Adore

My first "gotta have it" tame was Washte Pawne back at level 20-something, the amazing colour compared to the other gold windserpents caught my eye, and I had to have him. I ended out dumping him for Arikara when he still had the unique summoning noise, though in my mind he was still Daigo...

First (alliance) rare tame!

I decided to pay more attention to my oft-forgotten draenei alt a few days ago, and something pretty cool happened. I was out leveling my wolf Blanca in the Arathi Highlands while hunting mountain lions for a quest. Pretty straight-forward, aim, shoot, loot, skin. Rinse, repeat. Maybe fifteen minute...

The swirly thing appears when the wind elemental lord shows up with his invader buddies, they sort of mark his patrol boundaries. As far as I can tell its just a visual effect.

I name the vast majority of my 103 mounts and 111 minipets, much to my sanity's chagrin. Most of my special mounts and pets, the ones that involved tedious rep-grinds or blind luck, have serious names and I use them commonly in RP.
