If I could pick any model to be a Mini-pet....

Unread post by SpiritBinder »

it would totally be . . . . . .


The name says it all!

Have you ever been out and about and thought to yourself " Now this model would make a pretty cool Mini-Pet!"

For me I would really like to see quite a few, especially with the number of pets we have that are already model double ups "I'm looking at you rats, frogs and moths!" But if I had to pick a favourite few it would probably be . . . . .

Windserpents ~ These little flying serpents would make me a very happy hunter to have flying around at my side, and overhead :) That and I the fact that they are flyers they could follow you as you took to the skies as well!
(They already have the soul of the aspects in game that shares the same animations so it should not be too hard to implement)

Nerubian Flyer ~ The same model as the Anub'ar Blightbeast, These little guys have such great animations and would certainly be a great addition the undead family. Their little squeaks and noises and ability to jump/run/fly, they are super cute! (I've always secretly wished they made these tameable somehow as well :D ) They also have the ground based cousin in the Nerubian spiderling as well!

Dire Raven/Hawk ~ The original druid flight forms I think would be a nice addition as well as the current models, they are already tameable by hunters so I could not see why not.

I'm getting together a team to honour my main's levelling pets, that are now happily retired in the stable, and with whom I've bonded far to much to ever let them go. I already have a darkshore cub for Karhu, the starter bear, snow cub for Freya, the frostsaber huntress, and recently I've got nightsaber cub for Shadie, the Shadowclaw. Now I only need a fitting turtle for my dear old Precious, the Ghamoo-ra... but none of the currently available turtles fits :(

Gah, so many things I'd like to see as a minipet...

- one of those arcane golems the blood elves have
- naga
- definitely agreeing on the flying nerubians, also I wouldn't mind one of the regular nerubian spider guys, and the cryptlord scarab types
- BABY DEVILSAURS
- I'd like a little jormungar
- gargoyle
- hydra for the love of god
- I need a little mantid minion
- black mastiff
- pandaren/new druid form stag
- yak
- I want a satyr
- a little sha, I don't care which model
- skeleton wind serpent
- fungal giant, I've always loved their models and colours
- thresher, even if it would look funny in a bubble, I love them
- hellhounds from the Firelands
- talbuk
- mushan (wait were those coming, I can't remember)

I don't think this counts but every time I make an in-game ticket I ask when they are going to start rolling out a Gir from Invader Zim minipet. But if I could have anything from an in-game model I would have to go with http://www.wowhead.com/npc=43296#modelviewer:10+0 :headbang: gimmy one to hug, I will love him and squeeze him call him Cuddles :hug: :mrgreen:

I would like to see wind serpents, more cobras and boars. And more small beast spirits.

Oh, and Veph, you will probably like this one from 5.2.

First thing that comes to mind are mantids and nerubians. Then perhaps a qiraji gladiator, the last qiraji model that still isn't a mini-pet. I second gargoyles - always liked those creatures, in many settings, but they rarely get any attention.

I'm Dying For...
What would be amazing to have as a little pint-sized creature of murder.

* Pterrorwing
Seriously. If you're not gonna make them hunter pets, can they at least be minipets? They're just amazing creatures.

* Kunchong
See the above. Gogo Spawn of Garalon battle pet!

* Jormungar
They'd look great battle-pet-sized.

* Mushan
There's one coming in 5.2, but it's uncapturable ;(

It Would Be Cool To Have...
These would make great pets, but I wouldn't suffer severe pain if they stayed unimplemented. A key difference between this category and the previous one.

* The Gurkster
He was in the MoP beta, but disappeared before launch. According to Wowhead, he's still there... hiding. My guess is that he and the baby shark will appear as wild pets in Vash'jir, in a future patch.

* Yak
They're fluffy, they're angry, they're ferocious. Yaks!

We Already Have One Model, But The Others Would Be Nice Too...
A pet already exists with a similar model, but there are more that remain unused!

* Spiked Crabs
They're bigger. They're scarier. But most of all, they're spikier.

* Big Water Striders
As of now, we only have the cute little cricket-type as a minipet. I want a dangerous-looking mandibled water-strider that matches my hunter pet!

* Boss Wasps
I love fireflies, but I also think that the Huhuran-esque model would be an excellent wasp pet.

Now this inspired me to make my own thread. See you all in a few!

I'd like to see windserpent minipets. No idea why they aren't in the game yet; dragonhawks have been around forever.

More dogs (not wolves, dogs) would be nice too. Especially this little guy:

We were told there will be more dogs coming soon(tm). One of the devs behind pet battles (mumper?) is a dog person, and wanted to make a whole dog collection for pet battles, but they couldn't implement it right away, so it may come later.

Oooh! Cool. Really looking forward to that.

Also, as Spiritbinder said, wind serpents would be fantastic. As would a tiny scorpid model, like Maddex.
These are all things people have already mentioned, but I thought I'd chime in. All great ideas.

While at the fish event today in Sri La Village, I noticed these happy little Octopi hopping around. And I thought to myself....new mini pet!
Wouldn't they be cool? I got a few screenshots of Hatari fishing while they were running around her.
