Potential new hunter pets in WoD

[Protego]

What's the name of that pink moth in the War Lords beta? Thank you! I've recently gotten into butterflies in real life here. ^__^

[The Insect Man]

Well we can't tame does. At least we can tame rays...

[Vephriel]

I've been waiting 9 years for this moment. ;u;

*flaps arms* why am I not on Beta? stags look so noble beside a hunter. I need one! He suits you so much, the way you two are just staring into each other's eyes. I think he agrees with your statement. He's been waiting 9 years for that moment.

Alrighty Pandarian stags. I saw the green looking one. And I fell in love. But the white deer/stag is gorgeous. But the talbuks are amazing! I need all of them! Hurry up Draenor! Get here already! Being doomed to wait several more days after release because my computer won't be able to handle the people suddenly doesn't seem so bad. I'll have hydras and stags galore! And Talbuks! And-*dies on the floor*

Veph, you need to tweet that image to Muffinus... ;D

[Vephriel]

Ahaha, I have no idea how to use twitter, but I'm sure he's lurking around here somewhere.

[SylviaDragon]

Oh my gosh veph! It finally happened! That black stag looks amazing. So noble and mysterious. It fits you so well. I can't wait to tame my own. I remember first coming across those guys as a little level 15 free trial hunter and trying to tame them. I have used beast lore on them every time I have vised the zone throughout the years in hopes that one day i could tame one. I was a little worried they wouldn't hold up well next to the newer models but they look nice.

On another note- wow look as those wasps!I think its time that my old friend Nightlight makes a return with a fancy new color.

[Vephriel]

This might just be one of my most anticipated pets ever, I won't lie. I don't care if the model's old, I've been in love with these stags since Vanilla. ♥

Had to take some proper screenshots with a good location and transmog.

[Miacoda]

Aaaaaaahhhhhhh Veph you and that stag look so great together! The first screenshot you posted with them looking at each other and the "waiting for nine years" comment just had me going "AAAAWWWWWWWWWWW"

[Quiv]

Good god what a striking screenshot, amazing!

[Nikrosnil]

Awwww, the two of you look so perfect together, I can see what you mean! Those are some eye-catching screenshots, I am very jealous of you right now, wish I had a beta key!

Muffinus: Here's a whole bunch of new colorations, 3 new families (counting hydras), several new models.. and more!
Petopia community: Well I'd really like to tame that one, but there's a slight hitch in the model if you zoom in, and the resused an old texture for that one that obviously doesn't fit and it's at least 3 shades too cyan and really the beast has no reason to be in that zone it's like they don't even study ecosystems and we need more stable slot fewer stable slots and I want that one there why wasn't that included and we really should have given us this family instead and I know I could build a better model than that and....

Actually, I think the response to them has been pretty positive. I do wonder if those tigers are intended to have effects we haven't seen yet, though. The red patterns are just suggestive of it.

Gah, I nearly missed that

[Magnakilro]

News: In Talador...the Duskwing moth trio on the one little island are now all the lighter blue new model with white highlights. And tameable. However this removes 2 unused models from the game: Yellow body+beige wings and beige body+yellow wings.

Talador also has the new model red with white highlight moth...untameable. Replaces the Blue body + yellow wing moths that used to be there

Talador also has untameable pink moths flying up in the air.

Nagrand has the new red+white highlight moths AND the new dark blue + white moths. Both untameable

Talador's ridge Stalkers are now the grey-ish white tigers with red stripes. Tameable.

Talador's vignette tiger Ra'khan is now black with red stripes. Tameable.

Not sure if this is a new paint job or not - very similar to the red dragonhawk but I thought there were some small differences - maybe it is because he is so big? At least you can put down a new mob with the red dragonhawk skin if that's what it is - ???

back view

- I have to remember to up my graphics settings when taking shots - I run on low cause that's how I roll

- went back into new dungeon and double checked wasps - they are certainly the dragonflygreen skins

Can anyone please confirm if we can tame deers? Some of them are flagged as beasts and not as critters, and i would love to have one pet with that running animation, like this one http://www.wowhead.com/npc=883#.

Also, i remember that i had found a Gazzele in pandaria once that had the same running animation from those deers somewere near the Vale of Eternal blossoms (im not sure, going to search it tomorrow)

Please can someone test it? ><

they were confirmed as untamable a page or two back. many of the critters became beasts with diets which is encouraging, but no they can not be tamed right now.
I think it may have something to do with how old the model is. when blown up to a more tamer-friendly size they get kind of grainy and their eyes look glued to the top of their forehead.

[Jhonny Lopes]

Thank you for the reply Sylvia. Anyways, i will try to find the Gazelle that i saw with the deer animations, since Natchwulf tamed one i think we could try. if i find it i will reply here.


Still, Muffinus said that deer would be on Stags family one this tweet when he said that stags would be tameable: https://twitter.com/Sulfurian/status/484503928994660352

Maybe they can add deers later? *crossing fingers*

And i saw now the posts about this, i'm sorry ><

not a dragonhawk thats a windserpent and its in an already existing color. but maybe it will get a unique color or something later on.

WHAT THE HECK CAN I KEEP IT?????




(Savage Warwolf, only one of them that I've seen and it's running around Telaar in Nagrand)
