I was extremely happy with absolutely everything until the Rak'Shiri change. I do NOT want to abandon and then tame a NON-RARE for the same skin. I guess I could keep the skin, and alot of you would say its still the same cat, however, His personality is born from his coat color. So yeah, love it all, mostly, but one loose feather ruined the truckload cuz they messed with my poor baby.

Oh, good. I believe I'll take a trip to Azuremyst on the beta and toss them a reminder.

I can equate my satisfaction with the number of usable pairs of pants i currently own, which as of the Chromaggus announcement stands at a worrisome 3.

It took me a moment to figure out what you meant. And then I laughed my head off.

I am very pleased.

25-Slot Stables! = Check and a Huge Bag of Awesome.

More Spirit Beats (and a Spirit Crab at that!) = Check!

More Skins for Most Species = Check!

A Better System of Pet Skills (i.e. No more "Wolf Only") = Check!

Some New Species Added Incld. Some Cool Existing Skins (Blue Mage Hunter!) = Check!

Apart from the desire for continued un-tamables (Hydras for example), it appears to be a very solid Pet aethetics expansion. And a decent Hunter/Pet functionality expansion.

If our lurker could toss us the white Chimers skin sometime after expansion day, this would be almost perfect.

And down the road of development, we can hope for a few more (and hopefully different) Spirit Beats too, perhaps a Spirit Bird (a good skin already exists), a spirit Raptor/Devilsaur (popular request) or even a Spirit Cobra (epicwin!)

Have to say, pretty darn pleased thus far. :D

That makes two of us, Gimlion. I certainly feel a great deal less anticipation for the upcoming expansion than I did.
