They can make more colors just like those new unbound abomination colors in maldraxxus so that can be good

I found something that might be interesting for us Hunter too
i found Night Mare, he is a rar, but it is not shown as such on the map
it’s not really there as you can see, it’s just a “shadow”
he is wearing the missing color from the Ardenweald horses
Image
you can see him on the minimap, he's a beast, so I know for sure that he's Night Mare
Unfortunately I have not yet figured out how to get him out of his shadow, but I have found items in the database that sound very promising

Dream Catcher
Item Level 1
Binds when picked up
Unique
Use: Attempt to catch a fleeting dream.
"Even the Shadowlands has its other side...."

Repaired Soulweb
Item Level 1
Binds when picked up
Unique
"A repaired, but inert soulweb. Perhaps someone knows how to enchant it?"

Broken Soulweb
Item Level 1
Binds when picked up
Unique
"Wooden fragments of a soulweb. Not much remains, but perhaps it could be repaired."

First Soulweb Conversation
Instant
Second Soulweb Conversation
Instant
Third Soulweb Conversation

Oh that looks really interesting. It does sound like a Gara-style Hunter tame puzzle. But I guess we'll see!

I’m still dying to have a tauralus and a larion more than anything, I’m still dreaming of having beta to experience all the good shadowlands changes, I really hope the tauraluses get more colors and become tameable in SL, I really wish there was more horned chinaras, it feels like the hornless ones aren’t as good looking as the horned ones, I hope Blizz gives them, if not, I’ll grab alash’anir

It’s nice to see the toads in game, I’m naming mine groomit(groot + kermit), I was hoping there would be a green skin color but, unfortunately not

Thank you!! I've just gone and catalogued them. They all seem to mnake noises when clicked (and occasionally randomly) which is cool. I'll add them to the database shortly.

Just to confirm you found three looks but only two NPCs, right? So we still have at least a couple of models left to find? I suspect the ones named "Ardenweald Toad / Baby" aren't in the game. They have that generic kind of name that suggests a test NPC or something.

I wish there could of been a type of tallstrider in SL, cuz we need more tallstriders, and we also need more dragonhawks, and crocolisk a due to how underrated they are as creatures and pets in the game

Maldraxxus could use some tallstriders. Crazy undead birds would be a nice aesthetic for tames. HINT HINT LURKER :). As for crocs and dragonhawks, I feel like they're neglected. Ardenweald is a perfect place to add some sweet green and blue dragonhawks, and bastion's aesthtic would allow for some awesome crocs that stand out.

We have the undead roc even though it looks more like a pterrordax than a bird, cuz it has reptilian like jaws, reminiscent of a spinosaurus with an axe front of the face, dragonlike wings, and the tail of a dinosaur, I also felt like a maldraxxus cat, unsaddled felsaber would look perfect, just remove all the demonic features on it

I'd say keep in mind it's probably more feasible to think of existing models that we want, as cool as some of these ideas are! I don't think their artists are going to whip up a brand new asset just for us from requests.

I would absolutely love a new crocolisk model some day though, the cataclysm ones were exciting at the time but I feel they still lack the detail of the originals, I miss the intricate scale patterns and would much rather see a faithful revamp of those.

I'm so excited about all these new pets... But especially because of all of the new dreamrunners that will be available. Especially because this one has been confirmed tamable, because it's already one of my favorite models in the game.

I love the dreamrunners, I felt like the new light blue was pointless cuz we already have a blue & white that glows, and I don’t feel like they’re as impressive since they’ve been in wow for 2 xpacs, the thing I love about the ardenweald dreamrunners is the lack of the beard and the elf-esque horn

Unorthodox perhaps, and far from my biggest want

But does anybody else think snails could make for a pretty cool pet family?

They would be interesting, but it would be rather strange to see them moving at the same speed as a mount. :lol:
