Not sure if this is new but...

Unread post by Psymon777 »

So on the PTR was flying about, you know as you do, checking for a couple of rares to mentally note the pathing routes, when i happen apon this in Shola. Now to me, this could be a good sign that these might finally become tamable :D cause other wise seems pointless to change their color at this point. Not that i would not put that past them, probably to taunt us >.>
Sorry if this has been known and posted before, i searched and found nothing though probably due my horrid searching skills.

What am I looking at?

I see a giraffe looking mob, but no Beast Lore information.

I need more hunters, IMO.

Ahh, yeah. They are a little bit more colorful.

I think it is from Blizzard redoing some textures and models throughout the game... making things look "less bland".

It's one of the longneck grazers that wanders around in Sholazar. In a pretty new color.

They are never going to make mountlike beasts tameble like talbuks and those
it would confuse players to think they havent "loaded" the player on top of it yet...
I wouldnt put my hopes up too high.

This was previously noticed here: http://forums.wow-petopia.com/viewtopic ... 61#p208161

Yes, it's a new skin, but we're not sure if it's staying on that particular giraffe, since now the ones in the Basin are color changers. This is part of an ongoing project to get all the unused beast skins in the game out there. :)

Locking the thread so we don't have duplicates. ^_^

Why should the longnecks get to change colors? I don't anymore!
