Demon Hounds are tameable!

[Renle]

wow, looks like I'll actually be getting a dog pet after all ;D

(Wasn't a fan of the mastiff model lol)

[Falcon]

Is that the only one with the green skin that's tamable at the moment? Shame if so, because I'm Horde. x_x *still trying to think of names for her future demon puppies*

At the moment... they are. I'm going to be on the lookout for other hounds that may have colour changed though.

Well dang, I'll keep hoping for the ones in EPL, but I'm just happy that the blue ones, Bayne, and some of the other colors of the non-runed ones are tamable for all. ^_^ December, get here FASTER!

I think most of us are just happy to help out a site that has been helping us for years. At least, I know I am.
<--- Is a sap.

[Skyshot]

I may play horde but I can already picture the cool color matching night elves could manage with Bayne.
Since nelfs have a few very similar blue-green hair coloration and light purple skin tones in their customization options.


I'm just overjoyed to see more then one of that model becoming tamable! (Yes, I'm looking at you, mister bloodhound...)

[Dvatori]

This pleases Megatron.

[Worba]

Just went to check on that, yes the Vargul Blighthounds are now in the Dog family, not Wolf.

AWESOME FIND!

I kinda like the move to dog family as well... wolves were getting a little overcrowded plus I think dog is more appropriate anyway since demonhounds seem based more on dobermans than wolves...

[Itana]

OH, yes! Yes! That's just a dream come true! Always wanted the runeless ones as pets. Ever since I saw them in Tirisfal Glades for the first time. Also wished the'd at least add them as demons for warlocks, then I'd roll a warlock to have this cute demonic wolf running around with me.

[Royi]

Wow, i always wanted a blue one, never liked the red.


Wait, is this live right now????

[Antares]

This. Is. So. AWESOME!

Veph. You rock. FYI.

[bluddy]

BAYNE!!!!! COME TO ME!!!!

[bluddy]

omg, I so wish I had beta; I would totally help check that. T_T There's a way to get in with no key (at least on live), so all you'd need is a raid group....possibly.

there is an way to enter without key ^^ i'll pm you...blizz might be reading that post and do something bout it =P

[Wain]

Spike (white darkhound in Arathi Basin that only appears when Horde control the smithy) is still a critter. So much for a white model. At least all the others are tameable

I use to do Kara on a weekly basis, but I can't remember where the Blighthounds are located within the instance... anyone know?

[Rhyela]

Goodness, I don't check Petopia forums for 24 hours and look what happens! Yeah, I might actually have to get a dog now. I really like the red and green ones. So neat!!! :3

*Hope continues to rise that I'll get Duskfang yet!*

[bluddy]

i'll be taking screenshots tomorrof of how to get into it without key untill then u guys might want to have key

No worries. There is a reason that you never ran into these guys. They're in the Servant's Quarters, that doorway to the right as you enter Kara, to the right of the stairs leading up to Moroes.

Hyakiss the Lurker
Shadikith the Glider
Rokad the Ravager

The oft maligned beast bosses. The reason virtually everyone would never kill them are several-fold.
1. You had to kill a random amount of trash, in a very crowded maze-like area, to get the bosses to spawn. Different areas of the servant's quarters were home to different kinds of beasts, Spiders, bats, and demon hounds.
2. They dropped a random purple with a random enchant. The only thing you could be sure of what what slot they'd drop, depending on which boss you got to spawn. Hyakiss dropped a belt, Shadikith dropped boots, and Rokad dropped bracers. But they could be Cloth, leather, mail, or plate, and the enchant was random.
3. The bosses gave faction, but no badges.
4. The Animal Bosses were skippable, so you didn't need to kill them anyway.
5. I could be wrong on this, but I think you were only able to spawn one animal boss per week in Kara, and it was random which would spawn.

And now for a personal testimonial from back in the BC days *picks up his cane and sits in the old rocking chair*: Back in my day, on a lark, my guild decided to do the animal bosses once. Call it a fit of temporary insanity. We'd never done it before, so why not, right ? After spending 10 minutes clearing trash, we started getting impatient. After 20 minutes of trash we were getting ornery and decided we were gonna get the boss to spawn one way or another. Shortly after it did. Then we had to go find it... which involved killing even more trash, and yea... Once we finally did kill it (I think it was Shadikith, if I remember right), we got a set of boots that had an enchant that didn't match the armor type. Like, cloth boots of strength or something like that. Anyway, it was unilaterally declared at that point: "We have slain our foe, the wild animal boss, and we shall NEVER do so EVER AGAIN" lol. If people started acting up in raid, we'd threaten em with the animal bosses, lol. That'd usually get them back in line.



So, take one part killing a god-awful amount of trash just to get a boss to spwan, not knowing what boss will spawn, one part random loot with a random enchantment, and no badges for killing a boss, then top that off with the boss not being mandatory to progress in the dungeon, and yea, thats why pretty much *everyone* would skip the animal bosses, and likely why you've never seen them

[Marat]

YES! Awesome even more reason to level my hunters

[Victorelle]

What great news!!!!! Im one of the happest hunters ever :3
