Just a minor MoP question for us hunters
For me, I am saying good bye to a couple pets, namely my ravager whom I keep only for the debuff he brings. And that leaves my turtle. Yep, Terrorpene is going to be sent back to Hyjal to go swim in lava. I may or may not have more pets up for release, but those two I can say with certainty will be freed once pandaclysm hits.
So how about you all?

Re: Just a minor MoP question for us hunters
I don't think I have any pets I'd set free due to that reason, though. I tend to not even think about their buffs/utility. I tame them first and foremost because I like them as individuals. If they happen to have a useful buff, then it's a bonus. Luckily I seem to have the majority of helpful abilities in my arsenal just by chance. I haven't gone out to tame a specific pet if I'm missing one though, I just roll with what I have. I actually have a ridiculous surplus of Tenacity pets (for some reason many of my favourite creatures turn out to be Tenacity xD), most of which I don't use often for actual content, so if I can change them to Ferocity that will be perfect. ^^

Re: Just a minor MoP question for us hunters
I do try to rotate pets out so they all get used, but being able to choose specific talent trees for them would be great in helping this out. I also hope they make the pet's talent trees separate from ours. In other words, I want to be able to switch to my pet's off spec without having to change to my own.

Re: Just a minor MoP question for us hunters
Same deal for some of of my other pets that simple would perform better as ferocity with BM compare to their current tree.
It will be great!

Yeah that will be the hardest part. I hate the word abandoning Blizzard should really renamed abandoning to " set free" or " release into the wild"

Re: Just a minor MoP question for us hunters
I am hugely in favor of adding pet talent tree respecs, but this is one thing I think they are going to have to look at - if we can combine any family skill with any talent tree, then worms and chimera will bring back the ferocity pet DPS ranking they sought to remove back in 4.0...Akyo wrote:id be taming more. not releasing.

Re: Just a minor MoP question for us hunters
I agree. I think that maybe they should just make an AOE talent in Ferocity and Cunning, and give these pets either dif abilities or effects on their current abilities. Otherwise, I do see worms particularly (for their debuff) becoming the new wolf (man, I had to actually think of what the last "leet" pet was... that's glorious) with their burrow AND acid spit while being high damaging in Cunning or Ferocity.Worba wrote:I am hugely in favor of adding pet talent tree respecs, but this is one thing I think they are going to have to look at - if we can combine any family skill with any talent tree, then worms and chimera will bring back the ferocity pet DPS ranking they sought to remove back in 4.0...Akyo wrote:id be taming more. not releasing.

Re: Just a minor MoP question for us hunters
Well, that's the thing. Right now there are buffs/debuffs that would be nice to bring, but, many of them are tenacity or cunning pets, which the dps loss isn't worth the buff.Kalliope wrote:Pet talent tree choices won't change the buffs/debuffs they bring, so won't impact me any.
But... if you could spec a boar, rhino, or other as ferocity, that would bring a worthwhile buff, without the huge dps loss.
Also remember that they said they were going to eliminate a lot of the buffs/debuffs, so what our pets bring could change a lot.
Re: Just a minor MoP question for us hunters
I hope they do, then BM might finally have viable AOE again...Vephriel wrote:*nod* I feel fairly certain that they aren't going to allow Ferocity Worms/Chimaeras to exist with those abilities, at least not solely so that they're the obvious pet choice to make. There will definitely be some tinkering done.

Re: Just a minor MoP question for us hunters
Meh, I'm not too concerned about DPS loss in the Cunning Tree, in fact, there are time's I've pulled better numbers with one, but it will certainly be nice to have Kings without needing a Tenacity Pet or Pally. Also, this change will definitely be good for people, like me, who have multiple skins of the same pet. Now all my spiders won't have to be just color-changing clones of eachother.Slickrock wrote:Well, that's the thing.
