Beetles - can someone check whether exotic now?

Unread post by **Worba** » Mon Sep 20, 2010 2:43 pm

This question was raised in the "Beetles" thread however I didn't see a response; now that they apparently are going to move over to the tenacity tree I was wondering if someone can verify whether they can be tamed by a non-BM hunter?

I tamed one today and it is Tenacity. Now I am a BM, so not sure about the BM or Non-BM taming.

Ok, good to know tenacity is a definite.

Now the only question is, do MM and SV get access to this awesome tank pet?

They are not exotic. Tamed one on a 0/0/0 specced hunter. They also have lost the Qiraji Fortitude buff sometime between yesterday and today.

Do they have an ability yet?

Please please please don't give them another crappy pvp thing (crossed fingers)

Well at least they're now safely clear of the pvp family...

safely of the...? Sadly ferocity and tenacity bugs have all been given pvp skills, as I have whined and moaned obnoxiously about on other threads

WTB decent bug skills!

I was talking about the talent tree, e.g. now they can get useful tank stuff like charge, TS etc

As have cunning ones!

I hadn't realized it before, but I do hope Blizzard decides to make ONE bug that isn't geared for PvP utility.

There ARE tenacity PvP pets. >_> Just look at crabs.

Finally have my hunter working for the moment, and it seems Beetles have been fully seperated from silithid, as now Silithids have the Fort Buff, and currently Beetles do not have a special ability

Also, I noticed Silithid Workers are now considered beasts, at least in Tanaris, so perhaps they will become tameable.

Criminy! beasts with diets, no less.

Would make sense to have them as alternate silithid models, although a new family is always welcome

Yeah, they were made beasts at the same time that the beetle silithids became tameable. It may just be a cleanup by the same devs while they were setting the beetles and wasps, but who knows?

I know, my dwarf has one!

I'm not saying pvp pets exist only in the cunning tree but rather that leaving cunning tree gets you talents at least that aren't pvp oriented.

All the trees have talents that aren't pvp oriented.

The cunning tree is more pvp oriented than the others.

According to BRK's video today, either Beetles have an armour stealing skill, which is good, or possibly tenacity pets do (seems weird, but that's what he seemed to suggest). If the former then I confess myself very pleasantly satisfied. Will make for a cracking pet tank if that's the case.

At least cunning is doing decent damage at the moment
