Third Spirit Beast found! Magria - Blue Gondria

[WildcatTM]

Oh I doubt it'll be 8. We dont know the other 5. I think people are spazzing too soon about it.

I'll give you that. Maybe I am just spazzing over that portion. I'm certainly not happy about the recolors, though. Well, actually. Maybe I should be happy. That means I don't have to camp all[\] of them. They may not all be spirit beasts, but it's really does raise a flag when there are 3 spirit beasts in one day.

[Qraljar]

I think it was Dark Red yeah, whereas the Orange, yellow and green one were the ones used.

Which I guess leaves purple/blue as the only current unused molten spider model+color.

[Cialbi]

Alright, alright -- I was just attempting to explain, but if it falls to deaf ear---eyes.. yes eyes.. *Scratches head* .. Wait deaf eyes?

Well, I meant if you think their wording is neutral, sure.

I thought it surely was a message intended to hype them up to a status where anticipation would be present and anxiety and hope would be wrecked. (Dramatization, those words, if I am to judge them myself)I am sure that if I think it was a message to hype them up, with so many people roaming the world, there ought to be a few others to agree x)

I'll be contemplating this deaf eye thing.. :3

What Qraljar is really saying is that he would like his forum name to be changed to DeafEye, since 'Qraljar' is hard to spel gud.

Seemingly, one of the rares is a red spider, atleast it says so in the Deth Strike thread, let me get it.

EDIT: There

: O At last a pet that doesnt requires Beast Mastery! And I think that was the other fire spider model that wasn't used?

The one that isn't used is purple, isn't it?

Nonetheless, this is very cool. Spiders are awesome.

place holder!!!!
remeber ghost crawler?
he was green and black crab, i liked that one more tbh i hate how they slap the "spectral" or "ghostly" skin on a pet and suddenly its more awesome.

[SpiritBinder]

Just to piss people off, they'll make a new one.

My guess is that it will be unlikely, as blizzard generally don't do things to piss people off intentionally (I'm sorry to hear that you feel that way ), that and some people are rather happy with the availability of the two missing skins

[Kikanu]

So...these aren't the fancy rares we're waiting for, right? These are just playful jokes....right? Right?

I'm still waiting for the cool rare pets, Blizz. FOREVER WAITING!

Yeah, checking the database says it's the ''Orange'' fire spider model.

I guess this means the ''rarest and hardest'' of the rares will be the blue spider...

ITT: Blizz does something awesome for hunters, hunters cry about it not being good enough.

STFU and be thankful. I'm not saying you have to love the Gondria recolors or the reused mechanics but step back and look at how spoiled we are. I don't see Warriors getting new sparkly weapon challenges.

I don't feel honored that Blizzard is doing something class specific. As a paying consumer, I don't have to like every single thing Blizzard offers us. And so far, the Gondria recolors are not something I'm pleased with. I'm not going to /quit WoW over it, but I have more than a right to state I'm displeased with what's been revealed so far, aside from the spirit owl.

I thought that skin was already tamable?

The pet skin the spider uses is orange, not the red one.
Or at least in my computer looks more orange than red

I went back over my point two pages back, but for the sake of burying this hatchet before it blows up in my face again I never said you had to like everything or, hell, anything. The whole rant was directed more or less at how ridiculous people going "THIS IS LAME I WANT A TOTALLY NEW SKIN" and making melodramatic sighing fits every time something new crops up is, because it makes it look like nothing is ever good enough for them. Not at the people themselves, at the attitude. It doesn't matter if it rears its ugly head once a month or every other day it still drives me up the wall even though I may get along perfectly fine with the people who do it(and I like to think I do).

And if you didn't act like that, hey, guess what, you're in the clear and this has nothing to do with you, and more importantly, thank you for being sane and rational. Keep up the good work. *thumbs up*

I don't really like the skin either. I'm not trying to stomp on your right to say anything. I'm not that stupid. :P And, like I said before, I don't normally act like this, so I apologize for my wacky outburst and no hard feelings.

Gee, am I the only one that remembers all the SCREAMING BECAUSE NO ONE LIKED GONDRIA OMG IT'S PINK WHO LIKES PINK CHRIST GIVE US THE GOOD ONES YOU BASTARDS WTF. WAH WAH wah wahhhh waaah waah

So Bliz listens. They shell out TWO of the long-unused spirit beasts that apparently the eternally-ungrateful community complained so very very bitterly that they didn't use.

And this is how you react? Good lord, grow up, people. Besides, these are the first three they've released, probably, oh, maybe -BECAUSE THEY WERE ALREADY DONE-? There are -five- more to go. I admit I'll be a little bemused if they're all SBs (because really how many SBs do you need) but by the same token... it seems entirely natural to me to have the first mobs datamined be the ones included because all the work is already done.

I myself have wanted this dumb blue tiger since the beginning of time when it was first datamined as a mere 'unused recolor' of the SB we got. I probably won't ever find him, due to everyone who -will- be camping everything shiny and new, but at least I know he's out there.

Well, I never complained about Gondria. I like her, as a matter of fact. Still doesn't mean I care for the palette swaps all that much.

No; Spiritbinder just so happens to be fond of that particular font color.

[Shade]

It and the white one are both very pretty. I've never really clicked with Gondria because she is so pale, I normally just about see her eyes and a pinky-purply glow. These two look very much more distinct, so I rather like them. I'm thinking I will drop Gondria and Ghostcrawler, maybe even Olm, on my bigger hunter just to pick them up. I have an rp character that is a ghost tiger, but purple never worked for me. The blue or the white would fit his character wonderfully, so I'll be picking up one or both of them for sure.

I'm more disappointed in the new owl spirit beast then these two guys.

Though I would love a spirit beast in a 'family' that we haven't seen before (Gimme an F, gimme an O gimme an X. GIVE ME A FOX SPIRIT BEAST!!), I'm just shocked that we are getting so many spirit beasts all the sudden. My biggest hunter had all the SB just as a personal goal. I'm going to have to scrap that unless they give us more stable slots now.

Though to be honest I doubt I'll use them that much. Loque is still my prime spirit beast and goes everywhere with me.

I'm sorry some people are disappointed, but at least some others are happy.

Well, what I'm getting at is my posts there are in jest and it seems Spiritbinder doesn't realize it.

Same although every over week a I use a different spirit beast

so in a 2 week time span ill use loque for 1 week and another for the other

[Wain]

This isn't some trend where Blizzard is going to just recolor old spirit beasts from now on. This is a rare occurrence where other spectral cat skins have been in the database since the model was created. Three were made, one was chosen for Gondria and two skins that many people find very beautiful were left unused. Just like many other awesome non spirit beast skins have sat unused until Cataclysm and are now available for those who want them. The only other spirit beast where this is the case is Skoll (again, 2 unused skins).

Noah has been going well beyond the call of duty to ensure missing skins are available for those who want them. It's probably approaching 200 skins now. He's been simply amazing. With the missing spectral cat skins he found a good way to ensure they were now available for those who do want them (and many people do seem to love them). I'm sure at some point in the future he'll find a way to include the missing Skoll skins too. I hope so.

You don't have to like them, and it's fine to say you prefer the original Gondria skin. But using terms like "lame" or "lazy" as if you somehow deserve them to slave over three brand special new models purely for spirit beasts in this patch, for just one spec of one class, is just absurd.
