So it's really a flying chameleon. I'll take it, though I wish it looked a little bit more like the Sprite Darter but bigger.

Saw a lot of people suggesting it will be the 'new' Tyrael's Charger- the new Annual Pass gift. Apparently it was said the terms were updated or something for April... haven't checked for myself, but was a post I read. If so, awesome. Gifts for doing what I already do- can't beat that! :)

Basically you just sign a contract saying you commit to paying for your WoW account for a year and they give you free stuff for making the commitment. But you have to pay for the full year to keep the goodies.

Edit: You don't pay the full year at once, you keep making the same monthly payments as normal.

Oh thank goodness. I could totally do that if that were the case. I thought you had to throw it all down at once which is not in my budget at the moment. Thank you for the clarification.

Last time D3 was included, so they'd have to do something similar.

Well they do have Hearthstone coming out. Maybe you'd get some special cards or something with that.

And beta access to MoP; currently there's no expansion for them to be testing.

Possible new annual pass deal could include a mount, new expansion beta access (there will be an announcement at BlizzCon, you can bet on it) and... in lieu of D3, probably some special deal for Hearthstone.

No expansion, but there is Hearthstone on the horizon...

The sprite darter pet has reverted back to it's original form with the small patch we got earlier:

(I named the pet "Kaiju" because of it's huge size earlier. :D)

Cool :) I had a feeling it would. They copied the new model files into the original faerie dragon folder. That had to be a mistake. Even if they wanted to use the new model elsewhere in the game, I had trouble believing they'd just erase the old model entirely.

Free-to-play generally means you pay for the actual game once and then that's it. Basically means there won't be a subscription.

That's actually Buy-To-Play when you pay for the game and then don't pay a subscription (ie GW2). Free-to-Play means just that; it's free to play/download the game to play it and the things you pay for are micro transactions (which buy-to-play games have as well).

Yup people get that mixed up hell game companies do too! Prime example is well GW2! A lot of the asain mmo's are F2P and get all their income from micro transactions. It's a very risky thing to do I think GW2 manages to do it well because it's a big name etc

But that's WAY of topic so again I like this dragon and want to see more of it!
