Skin-Changers - Not THAT kind!

Unread post by Antares »

Has Blizz replaced some pet skins with updated models in Cata? The vultures in Wrath look 100% better than the vultures in Vanilla; and the new Crocolisk models are awesome compared to the older ones. Do these new models replaced the existing ones? So, if I have a white crocolisk in my stable, will it be the new model after Release?

Blizzard updated some species yes but only certain ones will turn into something else come cata. Like Spiteflayer (vulture) to a yellow carrion bird. The red scarlet hyenas will turn into mastiffs. The rare cats -Rakshiri, Shadowclaw, Duskstalker, will turn into new skinned cats. As well as Shango. And grunter into a hellboar. But no your croc will not turn into something else come cata. No crocs will, as of yet you will have to wait til cata to get the skin.

Petopia is up to date on about changes (thank you Mania!! <3). If you look under the croc site, for example, you'll see that the new models will be used in Gilneas, Silverpine, for a rare in Loch Modan, and in new zones. None are existing mobs.

Wow. A bunch in there I didn't know about! Don't suppose you have some 'before and after' information on the NPC models? I.E. what do the new Winterspring owls look like in comparison or what have they become?
Come see Kurasu's stables!

He's "missing" from Mania's blog post as well, because he's currently untamable on live, so no one's already-tamed Rattlebore will be changing colors....since he can't be tamed yet. :D
