I'm not really thinking this will be tameable, but ARMORED DEVILSAUR.
So awesome.

Ugh. I'm SO hoping that we get a Dinosaur family sometime, even if it's next xpac. They added so many amazing models. I want a Triceratops. D:

Re: 5.2 New Pets Speculation(Non Spirit Beast)
this is true calliope but that may just refer to the fact that they hail from zandalari island. i sincerely hope they are wild devilsaurs that are being detained on the island of giants for the zandalari to train into war dinosaurs! i also really want to visit zandalari island and i want to play as a dinomancer!Kalliope wrote:According to WoWhead, those are "Zandalari Devilsaurs."

At least the armed devilsaur was taken into the Zandalari forces - the un-weaponized ones, though, those could be wild, yes.Zangor wrote:this is true calliope but that may just refer to the fact that they hail from zandalari island. i sincerely hope they are wild devilsaurs that are being detained on the island of giants for the zandalari to train into war dinosaurs! i also really want to visit zandalari island and i want to play as a dinomancer!Kalliope wrote:According to WoWhead, those are "Zandalari Devilsaurs."

And I was only reporting the name, not speculating on anything, though I can see why you'd think that.

Re: 5.2 New Pets Speculation(Non Spirit Beast)
i think the odds are in our favor for new devilsaurs. The family itself is low on color and model options and devilsaurs where the pet family that got the most interest after it was introduced a lot of people rolled hunters when they learned they could tame T-rexes!

Yeah. I'm hoping they update the old ones to the new model look too.

Re: 5.2 New Pets Speculation(Non Spirit Beast)
Due to the pterodactyl's animations, I'm doubtful we will be able to tame them.
So far, we have not gotten any pets that have both walking and flying animations (at least, as far as I'm aware.) Unless Blizzard decides to give me an amazing post-Christmas present and breaks a trend, we won't be taming those beasts any time soon. At least we have a mount of one.
However, I'm almost positive that the new Devilsaurs will be tameable, and I'm hopeful for the Triceratops, too.

Re: 5.2 New Pets Speculation(Non Spirit Beast)
Somebody else posted that the skin version posted in the OP does not look like a mount; I didn't see a post confirming that those particular models are actually confirmed as mounts so I posted one. That skin isn't necessarily, but the models are intended to be mounts from the looks of it.Junrei wrote:That's the back of the Phoenixy mount, Tyger. I has a post for that one. :3

I'm not saying it couldn't be tamable, just confirming that they are, indeed, intended to at least be mounts.

Re: 5.2 New Pets Speculation(Non Spirit Beast)
I know that no-saddle phoenixes were in production, so I believe that red one really is a wild phoenix. Now to see where and how they implement them and if they'll be tameable!
But the ceratopsians are what really got me excited. They're gorgeous!
And I love that troll armour on the devilsaur.

The armored devilsaur seems to be the new outdoor raid boss. (One of them)
From the official PTR notes.Oondasta
Found in a place that has been lost in time, the great devilsaur lord Oondasta has been outfitted for battle with weaponry and armor by the Zandalari, and awaits players brave enough (or foolhardy enough) to seek him out on the mysterious Isle of Giants found in the seas north of Kun-Lai Summit.

Re: 5.2 New Pets Speculation(Non Spirit Beast)
straight from the patch notes!
"Dire Horns have been added as a tameable species for Hunters that have learned the required skill. Aspiring Dire Horn owners should seek out clues regarding these auspicious beasts"
SOUNDS LIKE TRICERATOPS TO ME!!!
