Re: Possible Argus Pets?
So, things are becoming tameable in the new patch!
- Argus Talbuks are Stags (of course).
- Panthara are Cats.
- Marsuul are Rodents
- Mana Rays are (as expected) Nether Rays

Duskcloak Pantharas are problematic. Every time I try to tame one I get a "shimmers as it fades into its surroundings" message and the tame breaks. Even though it's patently still attacking me and visible

Re: Possible Argus Pets?
I'm downloading the PTR now, just to try stuff out. I'll go out of my way to look for rodents of unusual size; where should I look? I know beavers in Jade Forest and Isle of Thunder, but that's the extent of my knowledge. I won't come out to the new zones because I want them to be fresh for me on release, but if I can stake a claim on a beaver tame, I'll do it so hard. I'LL TAME THAT BEAVER SO HARD.

I advocate for immersive features that will never happen. Why do I even bother?
I also do things in WoW that maaaaay not be fully intended. Beta testing live content!
Re: Possible Argus Pets?
Wait, Marsuuls ARE tameable? *frantically heads to the PTR*

Re: Possible Argus Pets?
According to the DB, none of the known beavers are tamable atm.
Re: Possible Argus Pets?
And is Rodent a new pet family or did they just rename porcupine?

Are they tiny, or are you just huge? The ray looks really small.Valnaaros wrote:They just renamed Porcupine.

Re: Possible Argus Pets?
They are rather small, actually. Posted a pic.
Re: Possible Argus Pets?
Looks to me like both the Talbuk and Mana Ray models need to be scaled up a little bit.WerebearGuy wrote:Are they tiny, or are you just huge? The ray looks really small.Valnaaros wrote:They just renamed Porcupine.

Re: Possible Argus Pets?
Mana Rays could probably do with being up in the air a little too. They sit almost on the ground:

Re: Possible Argus Pets?
Something interesting to note. Voidstalkers are (unsurprisingly) no longer listed as Beasts. They are now Aberrations.

Re: Possible Argus Pets?
Aaaah, I can't find any tameable beavers. Where are they found other than the river in Jade Forest and scattered on the Isle of Thunder?

Re: Possible Argus Pets?
Seem around Nether Ray size, maybe smaller. It doesn't make sense, though, because Mana Rays have vastly more wingspan than their Nether Ray cousins.Wain wrote:Mana Rays could probably do with being up in the air a little too. They sit almost on the ground:
I think they should at least be as large as Dragonhawks, with whom they share a skeleton.

Re: Possible Argus Pets?
I know it's the rodent family, but frankly, Marsuul aren't really rodent-like to me (but pls Blizz don't make them untameable I like them), so I hope the Pandaria otter model also becomes tameable as well.

Re: Possible Argus Pets?
Thus far, all Voidstalker mobs are listed as aberrations now. I'm not surprised, though. If I do find one that is still a beast, I will post such.Wain wrote:CrapValnaaros wrote:Something interesting to note. Voidstalkers are (unsurprisingly) no longer listed as Beasts. They are now Aberrations.
