Possible pet talents?

[Daranara]

So I was poking around mmo-champ forums, and came across these:

Corehounds: http://cata.wowhead.com/spell=90355
Devilsaurs: http://cata.wowhead.com/spell=90309
Silithids: http://cata.wowhead.com/spell=90364
Shale... spider?!: http://cata.wowhead.com/spell=90363
Spirit beasts: http://cata.wowhead.com/spell=90361
Foxes: http://cata.wowhead.com/spell=90314
Foxes(again!): http://cata.wowhead.com/spell=90347

Granted, these could all be wrong (especially the shale spider...) but it's always fun to speculate!

Hoping these are real, so so much...

[Daranara]

Sad thing is they're not even in game yet and people are already starting to cry about how unfair they are.

[Vephriel]

Core Hounds with a bloodlust? Badass!

[Anyia]

Wow, if we get the "big buffs" like this on our pets I'm going to be a very very very happy hunter! I always liked the sheer utility of the hunter class, but this would take it to a whole new level!

Those are cool...tho I kinda liked the original Warp really...especially for a tanking pet...:/

Also...looking at these...it looks like Core Hounds get two abilities...

Furious Howl is still there...increases everyone's crit...

Thanks Kalli for reposting that. If i remember correctly quite some time ago a blue said that they would like to give pets different/less powerful version of the class buffs to make hunter pets more versatile and of course so not everyone has a wolf. Hopefully this is the 1st step towards a full pet pass.

Oh neat, thanks for posting that! I got caught up in a bit of "oh lawd BM are OP cry cry" dramas and forgot to look any deeper into this.

Also man I'm not sure how I feel about Time Warp... I kind of liked the old warp.

Thanks Kalli for this find, very nice :3 *starts browsing though*

As interesting as this ability seems, is also sounds like our warp stalkers will be lozing their "warp behind you" power. Although the ability could be annoying at times, such as trying to keep a mob positioned, it was also veary indearing I thought. I loved watching Sheraton the Warp Stalker blink about his enemy (back when I still had one... he'll be coming back again come Cata though!).
But I might be passing judgement too early here. I'll wait to see what it looks like in-game first.

And, to get the obvious joke out of the way...

[Feath3r]

Ancient Hysteria
Increases melee, ranged, and spell casting speed by 30% for all party and raid members. Lasts 40 sec.
Allies receiving this effect will become Sated and be unable to benefit from Bloodlust or Time Warp again for 10 min.

Does... does this mean I might get to bring my Corehound with me? *eeeeeee*

Embrace of the Shale Spider Level 85
Fills all friendly party and raid members with the Shale Spider's embrace, increasing Strength, Agility, Stamina, and Intellect by 1485%.

*chokes* PERCENT?

...oh lord that gives me an idea...

Embrace of the Shale Spider Level 85

Holy.... man I know that's got to be wrong, but haaaaaa.

[Kalliope]

Was a repost of Drazius's post in another thread, btw. So ABSOLUTELY not mind find; I just browsed through and pulled a few links.

Hopefully Blizzard will want to keep the warpie animation with the new ability.

[Azunara]

Wait.

They're killing Warp?

No....I love my Warp! Don't mess with my warp! Curse you Blizz! Not to mention, note how the Ancient Bloodlust STACKS with Time Warp. It says target can't be affected by Time Warp or Ancient Bloodlust again. Don't bring a warpy and a corehound to a raid, folks.

That's a typo. It should say "Bloodlust or Ancient Hysteria again." Time Warp is a debuff on the boss, Ancient Hysteria is a buff on the players. There's no overlap.

[Azunara]

Oh, good.xD

Still. I rather like Warp as is....

[Anyia]

Time Warp is a debuff on the boss, Ancient Hysteria is a buff on the players. There's no overlap.

Time Warp is also the name of the mage version of Bloodlust, unless that got changed very recently.

[Anansi]

Time Warp is also the name of the mage version of Bloodlust, unless that got changed very recently.

Also, it's just a jump to the left and then a step to the right.....

Ooooooooooh right. Warpies should have theirs renamed. Y'know. Again. lol. TO AVOID CONFUSION. (Too late.)

Also, it's just a jump to the left and then a step to the right.....

This is so not gonna get old. How many warpies named Riff will there be?

[Gimlion]

Tailspin is a total pokemon reference.
