gondria or skoll

Unread post by tramani »

i have been running through sholazar for a while to tame king krush , but in the meanwhile i tamed both loue'nahak and aotona , this was not originally the plan because i wanted to tame all spirit beasts + king krush
now i tamed king krush and have 3 pets , so i still need gondria , skoll and arcturis .
but i cant abandon one of my pets , since loque'nahak and i share a band , i camped 2 weeks for king krush , and i use aotona to raid (since i suck in raiding with BM) .
i am definatly getting arcturis , his looks are amazing.
that leaves gondria OR skoll
now im a fan of both but i want to hear your opinion about it :)

I much prefer Skol

Regarding Spirit beasts, I would say Loq>Arct/Skol>Gondria, but just my opinion...

Honestly ........................... I'm leaning towards Gondria the more I play with Skoll. I didn't care all that much with my first two worgs so I am almost feeling the same which really sucks. I'm not going to just toss Skoll away however. I am going to run a little bit more with him and see how it goes.
Skoll and Gondria both have that WOW factor and bring in the massive compliments. But Skoll is ........... kind of bumbley. He kind of waddles when he runs and is slow even with stealth mode off.
But again I'm not going to seal his fate yet and get rid of him. I do want more time with him.

To me, Gondria is perfect.

But to each his own and the only way you may be able to determine is to run with both and see who works best.

It's funny cause I'm the opposite. I never connected with my regular Northrend worg, but Skoll is just awesome to me. I love him, the model just really suits his colouring and the lightning.

I had Gondria and abandoned her to get Skoll (so you can guess who I vote for ;)) - mostly cause her translucence shows her eyes through her butt. I dunno, it really annoyed me. I'm not too keen on that cat model either, the teeth so low they dig into the ground and the square shoulders. Perhaps the eyes thing was just an excuse. The translucence doesn't bother me with Arcturis, so I guess that can't quite be it. *shrug* I don't like pink? ;)

In my opinion Loque and Skoll are the only ones worth going after. I just dont like the other models

Skoll, by a mile (yes I know it's the wrong unit of measurement, jeez!). He looks cooler in my opinion and i've never really been a fan of Gondria...I mean, when those images of her and the other body with different colours were released, it was awesome! But Gondria's skin was at the bottom of my wanted list of those cats. And the name...Seriously Blizzard, get your mind out of the gutter!

But seriously, at the end of the day which one you tame is obviously, your decision, and if you change your mind you can tame the other one.

Skoll here as well.

I've never liked the transparency on Gondria, seeing the glowing eyes from every direction just looks weird. The transparency on the spirit bear works a lot better.

Gondria for me as I am such a cat person and to me the northrend worgs look starving - for me all Skoll had goin for him was his pretty blueness :/

Tbh just camp for one, then come cata you can get the other. Tho I would suggest Gondria first as after cata there might be a better chance, for a short time, to camp for Skoll as I doubt the TLPD campers will stay away for long.

Well for me personally I went for Arcturis first, the reason being to memorialize a family member passing last year, but after watching Arcturis there was nothing special about him; he ran forward, he hit mobs; but there was nothing I saw, 'special' about him, however I kept him for some time stabled.

Then I saw Skoll, tamed for the aforementioned reason, I didn't think I'd like him, & stupidly abandoned him & instantly felt guilty, sixteen hours later I got him again; hung out with him & I feel Skoll is more lively looking than Arcturis, & fits the meaning more.

Regardless, I had no problems sending Arcturis on his merry way to get Grubthor in Silithus without feeling guilty about it.

I also have Loque'Nahak, because he was the "Original" spirit beast.

Regarding Gondria, I just don't like how ghostly she is at all, but if I ever did get her Cheshire would be the name.

So in summary: Skoll > Loque'nahak > Gondria > Arcturis
