Vanity pet question

[Kaellan]

Have the racial mini-pets for the goblin and worgen been put in game yet? My guess would be no but thought I would ask anyway

[Saturo]

I think I heard something about Worgen having a mini mastiff, but no news on goblins yet.

[Rawr]

I'm still waiting on my orc racial mini-pet I need another Worg Pup or Wolf Pup or just Puppy, what ever the name, I NEED one!

I think I heard something about Worgen having a mini mastiff, but no news on goblins yet.

I heard the opposite... that goblins were getting monkey minipets but that worgen weren't confirmed yet... Hehe.

Er isnt the scorpid from the torny the orcs racal? i thougt those where the race pets

[Kalliope]

Racial pets are the ones sold in the home cities (moths for Draenei, cockroaches for Undead, etc.).

I thought we weren't going to be able to reach the goblin home city, though. And gnomes and trolls never had racial pets before, did they? Hrm...

[cowmuflage]

nope well what would you call the snakes? their sold by a troll in a orc city O.o

The orc pet? >_> Even if the vendor is a troll...

[cowmuflage]

Eh ive all ways thougt of the tourny pets to be race pets >.>

[Sarayana]

Well the tourney pets didn't enter the game until patch 3.3.0, I think it was? So yeah, they're race-focused pets but they're not the race pets that have been associated with the races since the early days of WoW.

This.

Hopefully with the gnomes and trolls taking their homelands back, they'll actually gain minipets of their own (though I wouldn't hold my breath). Depending on where the worgen and goblins go after they leave their starting areas, we may or may not see anything added for them.

[Kaellan]

I was thinking that the mechanical bunny would be a perfect mini pet for the gnomes.

[Saturo]

I usually consider the basic set of engineering pets, the ones you used to get from specializations, now drops in Gnomeregan, to be the gnome pets, but that's just me. :P

[Sarayana]

Haha. That's funny, I would more consider them hunter pets, seeing as so many hunters seem to be engineers and they were BoP back when.

Troll racial pets are the snakes from Xan'tish <Snake Vendor> http://www.wowhead.com/npc=8404 and gnomes don't have one that I know of
I still want another puppy

[Kalliope]

If the snakes are the trolls', then what do the orcs have? Doesn't make sense. It's based off the city, not the race, really.

Yeah I'm with Kalli here... the snakes are the orcs' pet. I'm sure we'll see an orc peddling them in Cata, when Garrosh kicks out the trolls.
