On a side note, I do hope shoveltusks are added into the stag family. Or a sort of "horned beast" family.

Tamable.
Nothing agains t the new raptor model or the Outland raptors but the Draenor raptors need a new model, maybe 50% normal raptor and 50% Outland raptor.

The new raptors, at least the yellow skin, are on the beta, but I can't find them. Saw a horde hunter log out with the yellow one as I was roaming around. Logged out the second after I caught a glimpse.

Well, considering the raptor is 94, I'd guess somewhere in Gorgrond... I don't think Talador has raptors anyways. Haven't came across them myself, have only seen green raptors using the OL model, but I haven't had a chance to explore all of Gorgrond since the new build.

Also, soon...

I'm crying on the inside right now. The main thing I leveled up for was specifically to get that bird. Not only do I now have to wait, but Dire Beast mocking us too? So painful.

So long as they and the flying version do become tameable, I can wait. Hell, even the fact that @Muffinus said "not this round" at people asking if Kunchong and Sandreavers implies that they're prepared to give us those as tameable pets in the future, and that gives me hope. For these models, we're basically almost sure they will be tameable.

I am not in the beta, so I don't know. The best I can give you is this:

Don't get too hopeful yet! Remember that Dire Beast also summons beavers and toads and pythons, and they're untameable (at least at the moment).

I'm not saying they *won't* be tameable, but don't rely on that as evidence that 'Pet will be tameable'.

Muffinus confirmed they're tameable in response to my tweet.

It's just a matter of "when" than "if". They're coming, just we don't know when. Curse Dire Beast for getting them first.

I never was relying on it; we've had toads as dire beasts since MoP after all. But we've gotten confirmation that the thunder isle birds will be tamable, and I just thought I'd share the pic for fun.

It's appreciated! It's a good indication of how they'll look next to a hunter, and it looks good!

They certainly do look good :D I can't wait to actually tame one.

Also, sorry if its been mentioned, but I noticed these guys as well, and they are tamable;

Previously unused, I believe? Now we have both the companion and beast.

Found the Yellow Raptor. It's called Gorgrond Wastetalon. Up above Evermorn Springs in Gorgrond, hanging a left instead of going to the rare Bashiok, there's a 92 elite called Riptar. He's not tameable, but the Gorgrond Wastetalon appears up there with him. Only seen one so far, so it might be a low spawn rate.

Thanks to Feoraelryth on the Leveling Realm 01 for pointing me in the right direction.

Image


EDIT:

The red version is in too, same area. They spawn all along the mountain where Riptar is. Disregard the little Teroclaw, that's a minipet and I didn't notice it when I took the screencap.

That would be Bendak, who posts here too :)

I keep forgetting to check that one up. I can never find it. Is it still around and tameable?




I don't really know,but I could recheck the site. Sadly,I have not gotten my beta invite :(

I went looking for it today... I searched these forums for more info, and I think the model he tamed was nightmarsh anaconda? I assume they spawn in the Nightmarsh, hence their name, in Shadowmoon valley. But when I looked there, there were no serpents in sight... Looked around the entire zone in fact, and still couldn't find one. So either I'm blind or they were removed.
