Re: 8.3 Beasts Thread
I really hope they are tameable, otherwise this is going to be a really, really boring patch for hunters. Hell, they haven't even taken the opportunity to add new mobs with the 7.3.5 Silithid models, or toggled the ones in Silithus tameable. But if they are made tameable, I would assume the scarabs are beetles and the fliers are wasps. They may not be wasps exactly, but they're on the bee skeleton, which is also in the wasp family.Wain wrote: ↑Sat Oct 26, 2019 12:11 pm The Aqir fliers and scarabs also look very cool (I'm not sure what they're called in the game, I'm taking those names from their models).
I'm guessing they'll be aberrations, but there's always the possibility they'll be tameable - assuming they're not meant to be sapient. The crawlers look like they could be classified as either beetles or silithids. The fliers are a bit harder to classify, since they're not exactly like wasps, and would probably need a family of their own. Or the two different models could be joined together as some kind of "aqiri beast" family, in a similar manner to Blood Beasts.
Pretty underwhelming either way, to be honest.

Re: 8.3 Beasts Thread
Corruption at 100+ would be a fun way to tame them, or using the N'zoth toy for the eye crown as an alternative, but it's likely they'll "fix" the beetle to be an abberation and keep them untameable. I really want one of those beetles.

Re: 8.3 Beasts Thread
It was still flagged tameable at least.
Rares in Nazjatar flipped in level quite a bit on the PTR, so we can always hope it changes back before this goes live.

But Blizzard can you please not skimp out on Visions of N'Zoth. ;_;

Re: 8.3 Beasts Thread
Of course, they’re not very closely related to goats at all (they’re related to camels, while goats are more related to antelopes and sheep), but the fact the question came up is interesting.
What would you most like to see tameable in 8.3 that is related to either the patch or the expansion? Alpacas would be great, but I’d most love to see tameable void hounds, with their many eyes

Actually, the Silithid in Silithus are three that should be tamable.

Re: 8.3 Beasts Thread
EDIT: As for tameable from the patch and expansion, more of those frog models need to be tameable. A great example that can be reached in heroic/mythic this week with very minimal effort is the Blight Toad in Waycrest. It uses a smaller frog model, but all the frog models so far aside from the Sethralis one are both beast and battle pet variants.

Re: 8.3 Beasts Thread
I don't know if it has been mentioned yet, but when I was doing the vulpera recruitment quest, I found a tameable black dire worg in Twilight Highlands. The npc was named Highland Worg.
Re: 8.3 Beasts Thread
Aha! Finally the last colour will be tameable Thanks for reporting it
(I hope it's not in a once-off phase!).

Re: 8.3 Beasts Thread
From the phasing implied by the article on Wowhead, it may only show up if you're doing the recruitment questline for Vulpera.

Re: 8.3 Beasts Thread
EDIT: Gotta love how my post is so much later when I submitted over 6 minutes ago. Site's gone bonkers! Still, this wolf skin being locked to a scenario that half the players can't access a problem. They'll surely fix it like they did with the fire scorpion...right?

Re: 8.3 Beasts Thread
And yeah, I'm sorry about the site's periodic lagginess. I've brought it up with the server owner a number of times but had no luck getting it resolved. Whatever it is began during that crash event and he still hasn't pinpointed it.

Re: 8.3 Beasts Thread
Just making the wolves in Halls of Valor tamable would solve the problem.
