Thank you for clarifying, Ziarre!

Very mysterious indeed...

Oh my gosh! It's disappeared! Sorry, I don't want people to think I'm crazy...it really was there! (Well, I am a little crazy for those that know me well, but that's beside the point!)

Guess I should keep my mouth shut to avoid speculation and just keep my fingers crossed =3

Maybe Blizzard's trying to keep it as a surprise for when they actually release 4.1 so they don't want it to get leaked.
...What? A girl can hope. XD

It's like the developers have multiple heads fighting over whether to gives us Hydras or not! >.>

Just to clarify: skepticism is not directed at the people who posted about the second MMO appearance of the information! The rest of us just missed it, so we weren't 100% sure what you were responding to. ;) And thank you all for verifying/clarifying!

Looks like we're going to have to be even more specific when it comes to hydra news, especially this is the second time information's disappeared from MMO.

Like I said, I'm really hoping it's a surprise they're hiding for us until they release 4.1 =P

Haha, that's fine, I didn't take it in the wrong way or anything, being a scientist and all I know you need evidence to back up your claims, it's just weird when your evidence disappears into thin air!

This is all very strange indeed..I love myself a good mystery though. =3

I don't think so much that it's a surprise as it likely is more that they're still hashing out family skills for them and don't want to be held to anything quiiite yet. They may still be debating which talent tree they'll take, too. With so much undecided and unknown about hydras right now, it probably is better to remove the information until they have a more complete picture of what they'll be like as tamable pets to share with us.

huh.that raw meat/raw fish diet thing was also present on some pets (like crocs) years ago.i dont think it actually did anything but let them eat weird grey items.it was changed after a while to just meat/fish and they couldnt be fed the greys after that.

Oona.have you tried looking at them while beast master speced? i doubt it would change anything.but test realms can be weird sometimes...

I took some pictures of Hydras on the PTR as my BM Hunter

Nope...I've also got some of the quest hydra in Zangamarsh, a regular outlands hydra, and a hydra outside of Blackfathom Depths. No change to any of them.

Strangely, the Hydras had all vanished from around Blackfathom depths when I took a look this morning during live realm's maintenance

Am I the only one that has that funny feeling that this may be a very cruel joke????

Not even Noah has weighed in, through Wain of course, that there's a hint this may be true. Unless I missed it somewhere.


Either or I'm just being way to paranoid over this. :lol:

I'm afraid I simply don't know if they'll become tameable or not. I had hoped to have a definitive answer so I could prevent people getting their hopes up even further if it wasn't going to happen, but I really don't have any info. If the diet and hydra icon are still present in the most recent patch, perhaps it's a good sign they're intending to, or at least still debating it.

Oona, I noticed your stable UI actually said "Level 82 Hydra". Did it always say that, or had it previously said "crocolisk"? (I thought they were technically classified as crocolisks. Sorry if this is a dumb question, I've never actually seen the "owner" side of a tamed hydra >_<)

If you read through the thread, Maq, on the PTR currently tamed hydralisks are being shown as their own Hydra family. :)
