Curiosity in Shadowmoon Valley

Unread post by Thwip »

I dunno if anyone has pointed these guys out before:
Aracno-Scorp

I did a search for their name and couldn't find anything. These guys are friendly and coming up as 'Not Specified' out here in the Ruin's of Baa'jir in Shadowmoon.
I'm just curious, since I don't know BC well, what these guys might be since they aren't labeled as beasts and not on the Petopia site at all. Are they related to a quest out here?

Those are mounts or vehicles for a certain quest in Shadowmoon Valley IIRC. I never quested in that zone on my main (hunter) but I decided to check out the place on my warrior and came across the quest.

They are indeed for this quest. They are friendly to both sides too, so they are not tameable ;)

Rest in peace mum. I really did love and miss you, even if I never got to see you.

Thanks for the feedback! Much appreciated. xD I ran across these while I was on my DK and was like 'Woah, wait a minute.' so I had to come ask.

Yeah, they've been around since BC as a quest tool. And are also a lot of the reason why the skin is now used on mobs in Tanaris because a lot of people were all FFFUUUUU WHY CAN'T WE TAME THESE. (Including me, hurp.)

It's still one of my favorite scorpids.

someday I'll find someplace to host a sig that isn't stupid money-grubbing photobucket

You can tame their lookalike in Tanaris though. ;) <3 Duneclaw Broodlords.
