Mini Warpstalkers

[Ryno]

They're called "Horny Toads".

Like this?

Edit: Apparently I can't remember more than four letters at a time. *cough*
Second edit: I got it this time I WROTE IT DOWN SO I CAN REMEMBER I'M SO SMART NOW.

[Wain]

No, the Horned Lizards are in Uldum, the Horny Toads are classed as level 1 untameable beasts and are in Desolace
EDIT: I replied to that before you added that second pic.. yes, those are right

They're popping up everywhere now! I found them as critters in the Badlands as well. I forget what they're called there.

I think they're all very cute, though I feel a bit sad that so many models that were unique to Outland are appearing in lower level areas now. By the time a new player reaches Outland there'll be almost no new beasts left to see. At least we haven't seen any fen striders, sporebats or nether rays yet.

Wind serpent skins from Outland are still only in Outland, right?

There's still the white ones in Northrend, otherwise I'm not sure.

Good call.

Okay, they're still not in Azeroth, right?

Which, to be honest, doesn't make ANY sense...

"There's an alien planet, SUPER DUPER FAR AWAY. But, since the stuff that lives there LOOKS SO F'ING COOL, IT LIVES ON THIS PLANET TOO!!!!1111 Oh yeah, the stuff got here through the portal or something and bred because we said so."

GG Blizz. GG.

*nods* I understand the fact that it's time consuming to create completely unique creatures for every area, but it really does lose that sense of 'Wow!!' when you first step foot into Outland and see these drastically different beasts for the first time.

The scientist in me grumbles that Azerothian lizards should probably have six legs like the basilisks, crocalisks etc. Or maybe they're related to raptors and they just look like warp stalkers because of some crazy convergent evolution.

Maybe they're tiny tiny trench stalkers that inexplicably got onto land and adapted to... er... desert conditions.

Warcraft + evolution is hard!

Warcraft + evolution is hard!

Proven by the fact that in real life, we can't even map out entire evolution paths for everything.

I guess they're all from Outland originally and just got lost in the "warp"

Though evolution in WoW is easy enough as long as you assume the Titans or Old Gods did it

[Raydex-of-the-dawn]

Warp Stalkers can teleport, right? It shouldn't be tricky for them to port around like crazy. Plus, didn't the burning Legion ride them? It's possible a few got loose.

Well! Maybe some silly huntards had Warp Stalkers but abandoned them after some time and then those found eachother and well..

..

The magic of life happened?..

[Ryno]

If I had a nickel for every time I used that excuse... just a nickel...

[Qraljar]

I lol'd.

Also, I got myself a Warp Stalker too. He's called Netherspike ( I really had no idea what to call him.. really.. ) and I'm growing fond of him D:

I originally took him because the chittering/buzzing of Horakk(Silithid)/Xakornakk(Wasp) annoyed my guildies, so xD

[Raydex-of-the-dawn]

I knew it! WoWHead does have the warp stalker mount info! 8D

(I remembered reading it in the guidebook I bought for the creature info)

There are reports that Legion officers use warp stalkers as mounts.

[Talaaya]

This was data mined a long time ago, before Wrath.

Black Warp Stalker mount

Oh how I would LOVE a mount to match my Gezzarak! Here's hoping they eventually add it.



(Not sure if you were referring to this or not, Raydex. Figured I'd post the link anyway.)

[Kalliope]

CRY.

Do want.

[Sochi]

A mini warp stalker would be an awesome companion pet. I love my warp stalkers and to have a little white warpie to follow after me and Jasper would be utter win.

"Hey... hey Thorg... wuzzat over there? *hic!*"

"Borag... it looks... by the War*hic!*chief, it's... it's a warp stalker.. AND THE VERY LORD OF THE NETHER RIDES UPON IT!! RUN RUN!!"

*two drunk orcs fall over each other, tangling into a mess on the ground*

*the hunter taking her pet warpstalker out of the stables tries her best to ignore them*
