Wait, what will happen to characters who have the dragonhawk from ZA, but are not yet 85? Surely they won't take my baby Opal away? :(

Why would they take it away? The untamed ones are changing level. Yours should remain as it is since pet level is something that is saved for your particular pet.

Oh fantastic! I was worried because I don't understand anything that goes on behind the scenes, so I was just thinking that if they change the mob level, it would have to change on mine as well. I'm rather relieved to hear that this isn't the case, since I LOVE that damn dragonhawk! :D

Thanks for clearing this up, Wain. :hug:

I did a little more wandering through the place. Curious Jungle Monkeys are untameable, but notice the diet...

They're confused about what sort of creature they are, so there's at least one fix that will hopefully be coming. Maybe they'll be made tameable then as well.

Curious Jungle Monkeys, at least in the wild, are 'hoot on click'. If they keep that when tamed, I might even consider getting one for Aloicious.

Poking around Mandokir's area, look what I found.

Not tameable (obviously) but I'm sure that a lot of people will be happy to see her!

Aaaaaand then I got kicked out of the server and was totally unable to reconnect, so my search will have to wait. :(

I'm kind of hoping we get to take the baby raptor and raise it like the venomhide raptors. :D

or maybe you get to save it then it rewards itself as the mini-pet? What was that one pet called, miniwing right?

Finally able to get back in, and I can go exploring. But... interesting bug. I crashed while I was camoflaged. And now, I'm still camoflaged. Permanently. As in, whenever I stop moving, I go into stealth. This should make my running around really easy, unless damage will cancel it! :O

.... mounted in camoflage looks awesome, for the record.

Someone mentioned that the cobras weren't set beasts, and not tameable? Well...

Image

.... they are now. :)

Monkeys and black glowy-eyed cats are still untameable, and the monkeys still think they're... something meat-eating.

They should replace those picks they used to retain with meat cleavers and you'd have the creepiest pet of all time.

WANT.

His name would be Loathing, after my dad's monkey. (He hated that thing with a passion, named it Loathing. I ended up convincing him to get Gosh'Haldir, actually, so he had Fear and Loathing in the end. That monkey was...evil.)

As far as I know, the Razzashi Adders were tameable since they first appeared--since I saw/noted them a few days ago at least! I think they're just level-scaled-up versions of the old ones :)

Aha1 I thought someone had commented on the cobras being 'not set as beasts'. :D In which case, my apologies!

Well, after a grim multitude of deaths (stupid mistakes and bad luck), I managed to get back to Mandokir to check out the Lashtail Hatchling. As far as I can see there's still no quests for her, but I'm not going to try and queue for ZG at this time of the morning.

I'm not sure why she's just called "Lashtail Hatchling," (maybe because her name changes throughout the quest line, depending on who her "owner" is) but in any case, it's definitely Ohgan'aka:

Image

...not that there was any doubt, of course--it was pretty clear :P I'm wondering what will happen; maybe it's something that requires a Mandokir kill. I'd assume this is the case, anyway, but time will tell!
