Request for pythons

Unread post by Shadowhunter1990 »

Was wondering if anyone has requested for pythons to be added? Atleast put them in with cobras so we would have more skins to choose from that family 8-)

I would love to get pythons. The serpent family needs more variety and they would work. There's a lot of skins and they look Ok pet size, if you go look at the Twilight Serpents up in Nagrand or something.

Cool idea, but Blizzard will not do it. Those snakes are too flat. It'll create a hell of a ton of issues in PvP trying to target a flat creature.

They've been on the untamable skins list for a very long time. Blizzard doesn't seem to like them though. I know one issue is the lack of animations, which is the stumbling block for making many families tameable. Unless you can copy from a close analogue model that has the required animations, it's a lot of work for them.

Why wouldn't you if a pet's pounding on you without a hunter in sight?

Warriors get victory rushes off pet kills. Why wouldn't they kill pets if they saw them?

Hell, I kill hunter/lock/DK pets just for the fun of it, as does my boyfriend. We're both BGers and it's really amusing to come across people that don't know what to do once their pet has died. Plus, with BM hunters, you kind of want to kill their pet, that's 30% of their damage/utility down the drain.

I suspect that lots of people have requested them. ;) Whether we will eventually see them or not is another question all together.
