Re: Melee, Ranged, and Wands come Mists of Pandara

I really hate this idea of removing our melee weapon completely. I understand we're a shooting class, pure and simple, and blizzard has never really given hunters any real melee ability of note beyond that of our pets, but we should be able to still equip and use melee weapons. There are some sweet ...

Re: Question on pet taming etiquette

I honestly have no sympathy for the guy who was watching Ankha for two hours. If your friend wanted him so much, then he should get there. Pronto. I don't mean to sound rude, but if you want a pet that badly that you can convince a friend to watch it for two hours, you should be there in ten minutes...

Re: Suggestions for our Lurker.. ;)

I know a lot of people complain when more cats are added, but I think the saber cats are still the best looking models in the game, so I would love to see some more color options added. The one thing I would like to see is a bit of a graphic touch-up on them though, adding more obvious musculature l...

Re: Gender Identity

True, but when males fight it's mostly for show or for breeding rights. Males of a lot of species have very ritualized fighting styles, many of which evolved to settle disputes with as little damage done as possible. When females fight, however, it more often to the death! Particularly among feline...

Re: I Start Playing Again Today!

Welcome back! My main is a dwarf hunter and I remember fondly the days of leveling in Dun Morogh. I think polar bears and boars are solid choices, but a big cat for me felt the best next to a dwarf. The snow leopards are the real beauties of the starter zone, but I hate the non-saber cat model. Fort...

Re: Gender Identity

Like many other people on here, I try hard to stick to the lore or failing that, obvious gender indicators in the real animal kingdom - the manes of male lions, for example. When I tamed Shango, for instance, the quest given by Buck Cantrell talks about the giant Dreadsaber as a "he" rathe...

Re: Iconic Pets

A very interesting idea for a thread! Takes me back and makes me feel all nostalgic haha. I'll give this a go. Expansions -- Vanilla: Cats ruled Vanilla WoW. Though there were exceptions (Bjarn the bear, Aga'mar boars, and Takk the mount-killing raptor), the pets I think back on as being most repres...

Re: Cats for an Undead Hunter.

For now, at level 35, I would go pick up Shadowclaw in Darkshore. Then once you level up a bit, I would go tame Duskfang in the Swamp of Sorrows or one the Frostsaber Stalkers in Winterspring. All of those cats would be a good fit in my opinion for an undead hunter.

Re: Kitty help!

From a purely aesthetical standpoint, I personally think the riding model sabers are so much more pleasing to the eye. They look more massive and powerful while still being beautiful, which is how a big cat should be! Both also look the most striking (at both ends of the color spectrum) next to your...

Re: Anyone else have this problem with Sambas?

I don't know why he is off to the left for you, but the fact that he appears low on your screen is due Sambas sharing the same model/skin as the Golden King mount. Thus, the "center" of the stable screen is focused on where his nonexistent rider would be. There used to be the exact same pr...

Re: A Horse...Err, Lion of Different Color?

Thanks all for the responses. Caelaza and Nubhorns thank you for the tip, there were some great recolors there and those definitely provided some great insight into the future might hold in terms of possibilities for these higher resolution pet models! And Wain thank you that would be amazing if tha...

A Horse...Err, Lion of Different Color?

I know this has been discussed several times, and I've searched the forums without success (so I apologize if I missed an existing topic), but has anyone actually posted pictures of the various possible Sambas/Golden King re-colors that could be? I know the subject has been broached dozens of times ...

Re: Anhka Tame - Server First on Thrall!

Thank you Nakae for the kind words, I'll have my fingers crossed for you! Hopefully I can get my screenshots to work so I can load up some pics of me with Anhka (Theokoles) by my side and also the exact spot where he and Magria spawn just to help you and everyone else still looking :).

Anhka Tame - Server First on Thrall!

I had to share this story because I believe I got the first Anhka on Thrall. I didn't make it online until about 7 pm last night, and I assumed that Magria or Anhka had already spawned ages ago and been tamed by one of our lucky fellowship or killed by one of the less... enlightened classes :|.
