Deathmaw is cute. I want one! ^.^

Deathmaw is purty. Would look great with the worg pup mini pet!

Yeah, and omigawsh, here is my REAL late Kirix report:
I tamed Kirix because of how hard/complicated his tame is. I tried a few times from the rock, didn't work. But when trying from ground, I tamed him perfectly...then died.

After the most epic tame of my LIFE (other than taming deth at 3am XD)

Posing for a mere moment.

Poor Kael...WHY U NO GIVE ME CHOCOBO?
---

I swear to god I didn't kill them....

Over all, he has a nice colouration, but I think he should get say, a darker green? The Broodlings are easy to pick out via NPCscan. The Animations I love, and he is a decent pvp/soloing pet.

I'd like a reroll for my hunter :3

Restrictions: Can only review pets already tamed. Have all northrend spirit beasts, 8/10 Challenge tames, and a few other rares. http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/m ... lea/simple is my hunter's armory

Edit: Dear me, forgot to put in armory link.

Kirix owns all! God of spiders! And awesomeness for his amazing face eating abilities. I watched him kill, I swear at least 40 people today. It was hilarious and made my love for my own Kirix grow.

I swear to god I messed up on his tame three times, and we watched one hunter (we let her have her turn) get punted over the side XD It may sound bad and all, but I died laughing irl, and all my cat did was, O_O

(He showed up in your stables as the blue skin so that's what I went with; if that's not correct, just do your report based one whichever color he actually is. )

ooo grunter.....lv 57....ok you got me this time..this is gonna be a bit:P and i don't mind if you give me the outlands/NR ones.....they need the love too:)

I figured I would try to pick one out that was at or above your level.

Aotona. Sorry it took so long to get this up. I was taking a little break from my hunter for my own sanity. Anywho, Aotona was an easy tame once I found her. It took me TWO YEARS of looking to find this elusive bird. I was so excited when I finally did, with Starkittens help. Aotona rarely leaves my pet summon thingy now, cuz he/she/it is so pretty. Some pics, first right after the tame, second with my lovely helper Starkittens, third a lovely pic of him near some glowy golden things in Hyjal:







Castiel swimming. The usual majestic bird-in-water animation:



Top shot of Cas. He really is a gorgeous parrot. I wish it hadn't taken me two years to find him. I could have enjoyed him far longer:



Me and Cas enjoying Hyjal, the most beautiful zone in the game in my opinion:



I love this parrot. As with most birds (excepting Ban'thalos, a spirit beast) he isn't too good at holding aggro, but he is a great pvp pet with his snatch ability and his extremely annoying screech (SCREEEEEE the allies to death!) His dps is pretty good, he can hold his own as a dps pet, but cats and wolves still beat him out as a raid dps pet. As of now, he's just pretty to look at and do pvp with. I still love him though. I love my Castiel. <3

Finally here comes my report on Bayne the purple Demon Dog.

The purple demon dog can be found in Karazhan, but he is level 71, the other purple demon dog is Bayne, a level 8 rare in northern Tirisfal.
Demon dogs became tameable with Cataclysm, belonging to the family of dogs. Their ability is "lock jaw": they hold their target in place for four seconds (like the "pin" from crabs).

Nerdanel was ways too low for Karazhan, so I tamed Bayne. She has a white/pink/purple pet theme in her stable and I thought he would fit in quite right. I never had to search for Bayne (already tamed him a few times on other hunters) and Nerdanel found him on the second spot she was looking for him. He is really big, so no way you could miss him. Seems like nobody wants to tame him or does quests in Tirisfal and kills him.

Appearance:



Bayne is NOT purple for me. I think that theses guys

look way more purple than Bayne.
Bayne (I named my dog Bayne, too, the only name that fit for me) is more like a rose, light pink with a green mane. His colours change from the light around him. I really like his colour in Tirisfal when I tamed him, but in Orgrimmar or during my quests he always looked kind of pale, grey or like skin. That is not really my first choice as colour - I thought about replacing him with the "blue" dog, 'cause this one has a really purple mane.
But there are good things about this demon dog model in general. I really like their faces. Bayne just has such a variety of expressions, that's totally awesome. He can look menacing (during fights), aggresive (depends on the angle), proud (while standing still) or like a happy puppy (during his animation). This variety gives him a lot of personality and made him grew on me very fast.
What was already mentioned a lot (also in other threads) is, that the demon dogs really are small. Bayne shrank a lot after taming and they look tiny next to almost every hunter (apart from goblins and dwarfes). I had one with my Tauren and abandoned him because he was almost smaller than her hoof. Please Blizzard, make these dogs a little bit taller, they look like a mini pet!

Animations and sounds:

Bayne is a quiet pet. His sounds are a very soft snarling or growling, I never really noticed them until I paid more attention. So nothing annoying, no barking or howling - but nothing special, too.
Bayne's idle animation is to make a little leap, like he tries to catch something in the air or wants to have a puppy cookie. When he's doing this he looks really cute and his expression is one of a happy little dog (picture top row on the right).
His run is a little bit strange. He galopps like a dog would, but makes himself really flat when he stretches himself out and his paws just move kind of odd, very far under his belly.
While fighting he leaps at his target (almost like his idle animation), bites it and hits with his right paw.
Swimming animation: sadly none. *sigh* He just stands in the water like on the ground and does his idle animation. When Nerdanel was swimming he was trotting at her side, but REALLY fast. No galopp this time, but trot in such a speed, just ridiculous. While birds have their animations slowed down to grace it's upside down with Bayne.



Fighting:

Bayne is small, so I lost track of him as soon as battles got a little crowded, I marked him with a dart in the first picture (above) to show how tiny he is. I turned off his lock jaw ability in dungeons, because he has to cast it and looses dps because of that. I did some pvp with him, too, where I put it back on autocast and we were able to catch the flag twice (was in Warsong), he held my enemies away from me and I ran away with the flag
I think he was quite annoying for alliance in the battleground, his size helps him not to become an easy target, I think mostly they didn't even notice him.
He didn't hold aggro really well, but I mentioned it before, no pets hold Nerdanels aggro when she doesn't send them in first. They just don't have the abilities to help them yet. I never died, so it's fine the way it is.

Conclusion:

Demon dogs are really nice companions. I enjoy having Bayne at Nerdanel's side. I never see the "non runed" ones on my server, but they really deserve some love, too. I will perhaps change Bayne into a blue one, just because I think one of them would fit better in Nerda's stables. Their ability makes them good pvp pets, but depending on how you specc them, they can do good dps, too. I like their animations and expressions, I personally prefer them to the rather stiff mastiffs. They just seem so full of energy and life.

I'd like to ask for my last roll. Next week my flight goes to Sweden where I'll spend one academic year and I don't know how much time I have for wow there.

Will edit with Lone Hunter pics, but I'd like to add that I tamed a purple parrot today too, so can review that. Had to abandon one of my others, green parrot, but the brilliant macaw was so worth it. I love Lone Hunter. He's cool.

This is a really cool idea! I -so- want in!

The Lone Hunter. Easy tame, just find him in Plaguelands and tame. For a lowbie, watch out for the elites in the area. If you want to keep the sword thing, there's a macro you can find on WoWhead for it, but I won't post it here because I'm not sure if its a bug or something I'm not supposed to have. Here's a pic of me and him, just sitting:



Ned alone, near some golden firefly things:



Backshot of Ned, can't see him too well, he's really translucent:



Ned in water, swimming. He does a cute little wolf doggy paddle, but other than that his swim animations aren't the greatest:



Combat shot of Ned. He has all the normal worg combat animations:



Dead Ned. He died after pulling too many elementals and I just took a SS. Poor guy can't even get some rest while dead! His eyes are still open and he's still got the damn sword in his head:



Sara and Ned at the Sanctuary of Malorne, after he was rezzed and we finished our dailies:



He's an easy tame and a good pet. He's a wolf, so he's Ferocity and can hold aggro really well. He really is like all other worg pets, same animations, everything. The only difference is that he is spectral and has a sword permanently engraved into his head (if you tame him that way, if you don't, then he's just a spectral worg). He's worth the tame and the trouble to find the macro and get the sword buff thingy or whatever. He keeps it even after dying multiple times, as shown in the above pics where he died and was rezzed and still had the sword. I haven't used him in arenas, so I'm not sure if he loses it going into arenas, but it doesn't give him anything special, so I would think not. He's just a special looking wolf with a really bad migraine all the time.

The abandon pet script macro doesn't work for taming this guy with the sword in his head anymore. Also, there's several guides out on Petopia about how to tame this guy with his sword--he and the other appearance buff pets have guides you can find for taming them Here using the killing and resurrecting method.
