Oops! You reported that one before but I forgot it during the "checked" reset for the page. Fixed
Re: Chains of Domination PTR is up!
I've updated the database and there are 24 left to check. But of those, two may be missing in 9.1 (Lor and Ventun) and one is simply bugged and can't be reached (Nyemi). That leaves 21.
Also, I have an NPC up to the Yachi and Yao quest in Pandaria, so I can check those later.
There are still four that definitely don't retain their names. Five, if I include the Lost Netherwolf, though I'm not sure I should since it's meant to be Gara, what do you think?
For the list, see:

Gladly and i think the Lost Netherwolf should also be on the list, it also has a special name, even if it is theoretically Gara, it still has a different ID
Re: Chains of Domination PTR is up!
I'm sure Valnaaros confirmed this one could be tamed, so is it actually 60 in the instance?WerebearGuy wrote: ↑Sat May 08, 2021 6:12 pm Mechanical: 4.RF-4.RF, due to being too high level for players to tame in Shadowlands
Also, Yachi and Yao confirmed to keep their names. Yachi also barks when clicked, Yao remains stoic.
Re: Chains of Domination PTR is up!
- Izik the Dissolver requires you to have a Necrolord character with Atticus in the Stitchyard, and Atticus has to offer you the quest "Asset Extraction" this week to get the bug to spawn in Ardenweald. However Atticus is offering a different quest to my only necrolord player. Does that mean all players with the Stitchyard will get that quest from Atticus this week, or could it vary between players? If you have the Stitchyard, could you please check? It doesn't need to be your hunter - you can spawn the bug then switch characters quickly.
- we can't check on Haofeng until Mogu invasions are up and the Serpent Binding daily is available.
- Milo and Spitz require the Preemptive Assault WQ up in Nazmir, for Horde.
- was Hive Eater Matriarch removed at some point? It seems like it.
- it actually looks like none of the other spiders that were on the road around Keres' Rest (on the Beta) are in the live game. I can't find any of them, and none have maps or loot tables on Wowhead:
- Hive Eater
- Bonefang Spiderling
- Wasp Eater
- Anima Creeper
(Note: I've already set them all to retired, so please let me know if you find any in the game!)
Because of this, it's possible is restricted to one quest spawn and a spawn in the Plaguefall dungeon. At least the latter isn't too hard to reach, from memory.

Re: Chains of Domination PTR is up!
Friender does retain its name.
I also went looking for Blood Seeker again, but with its spawn tied to Aeonaxx, multiple reports of it despawning quickly, and the fact it hovers in the middle of the air as a low level, I'm not sure how reasonable it will be to test this. Big yikes.
Edit: Just PTR doing PTR things

Re: Chains of Domination PTR is up!
As for the other two mentioned, good to know that there's two more we can check off. I just wish Nightmother had a space in its name so I could perform the Black Sacrament. Oh well.
EDIT: Point and laugh at me; my /tar macro caught sight of Blood Seeker, but it despawned before I was able to reach it.

Re: Chains of Domination PTR is up!
Well spotted! I missed that one, so it's never been on our suggestion list I've added it now.

They remind me of of the Shreikers from Tremors.WerebearGuy wrote: ↑Tue Apr 13, 2021 11:09 pm I just realized why I like the appearance of those devourer crawgs. They kind of resemble the emperor sea strider from the Discovery Channel documentary "Alien Planet".

Re: Chains of Domination PTR is up!
Oh, and, I'm yet to work on the gyreworms and their slightly different glows. It seems that the tamed ones don't have the strong effects of certain untamed versions, but still may be a little different. It's really difficult to work out where those effects are coming from (for example, the creatureDisplayInfo data doesn't tell me why the Amber Parasite would have a different glow to the other amber gyreworms), and the model viewer doesn't show those differences, so I've kept putting it off.WerebearGuy wrote: ↑Thu Apr 29, 2021 7:29 pmI don't see the wild glow there. That extreme blue glow the NPC had prior to taming seems lost.Valnaaros wrote: ↑Thu Apr 29, 2021 7:25 pmWerebearGuy wrote: ↑Thu Apr 29, 2021 7:20 pm Sweet. Any chance for a pic? I'm curious how vibrant it is.

(It hasn't been used in the game yet, so the suggestion is pre-emptive, assuming at some point they want to replace the old model with the new one).
Essentially, this is the difference between them:
<=
Clearly, the new model is lower / less upright. I'm not sure much could be done about that.
But other than that, I believe the horn style is one of the biggest changes to the overall feel/attitude of the model, and could be solved by implementing horn style variants, much like many modern stags/talbuk models have. It's been done a few times now, and hopefully would be simple. We could have forward-pointing horns (which I admit have a fun attitude to them), or a more backwards-leaning set for the originals.
