Patch 12.1.7

[Valnaaros]

Since Patch 12.1.5 is coming out tomorrow, we'll probably see the ptr for 12.1.7 start up within a couple of weeks or so.

Not too much so far in 12.1.7, but at least one new model that (hopefully) will have a non-saddled version at some point, if not now



Not related strictly to 12.1.7, but there is a new toy that can purchased in a pack on the Blizz Store that allows you to turn your pets into Rexxar's companions.

That mount looks epic. I hope it will become a wild beast because it looks better than the bfa stegodons imo, and 1000x better than those Dragonflight thunder lizards, which is makes it a cooler combo. BFA thunder lizard textures and plates + Dragonflight thunder lizard’s body frame. It will most likely use ksm armoredon aka chloroceros animations

As for the pet transformation toy. I find it kind of bland for it to only work on hunter pets, it should have been open to other classes with permanent pets, it would have been hilarious to see a DK with Misha or a Warlock with Huffer. At first I expected it to summon exclusive pets to tame for your hunters, but this is fine as well

Has to be a new breed of them, since they look way more carnivorous.

In terms of the pets, I think the toy should turn companion pets into it instead. that's just me though.
I'd love a special npc that would summon versions of enemies for you. Tie them to an achivement or something. Summon a mount version to tame.

That actually brings up a question.
How many mounts are actually usable in combat? Like how many of them have combat animations?
