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 :P

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.

And is Rodent a new pet family or did they just rename porcupine?

They just renamed Porcupine.

Thus far, all of the Talbuks are tamable. Will be uploading pics. Will also be making a list of all tamable beasts.

Chitinbuk Grazers are tamable.
Magechaser Marsuul is tamable.
Arcfin Mana Rays are tamable.
Manafeeder Pantharas are tamable.
Ancient Ruinstalkers are NOT tamable (Warp Stalker).
Ruinwalker Stags and Ruinwalker Calves are tamable.
Springstep Marsuuls and Marsuul Kits are tamable.
Ancient Skyfins and Skyfin Mana Rays are tamable.

Update: Mana Rays are tamable. In the Nether Ray family.

Are they tiny, or are you just huge? The ray looks really small.

Looks to me like both the Talbuk and Mana Ray models need to be scaled up a little bit.

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

Something interesting to note. Voidstalkers are (unsurprisingly) no longer listed as Beasts. They are now Aberrations.

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?

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.

I think they should at least be as large as Dragonhawks, with whom they share a skeleton.

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.

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.
