Also found Ripshread, Bloodscent the Tracker, and Dampfur the Musky (love that name!), and Fathomclaw - 3 more banded wolf and 1 crab rares. All keep their names. 1 wolf (Scarpaw) to go.


There are also 7 rare toads to check but I don't think they're appearing this week. I haven't seen a single toad - rare or otherwise - in the dozens of expeditions I've run. Not worth trying for those until next week.

Omg that’s awesome, the banded wolves adds a little more depth in color on their backs, making them a little more realistic. I want a loa toad so bad, it’s beefier than the dire toads and has a beast boy tooth, I must get one

At least one loa toad is already coming in TWW: Croakit. It's a tameable rare in Hallowfall. But hopeully the IE ones are tameable and we can have all the colours.

Update: I just tamed a Toxinbelly Croaker in IE. It was the first toad I've seen there all night. it has the exct same colour as Croakit but it's a good sign that the rest will be tameable too!

All seven wolf rares with unique looks, from IE - one for every possible banded wolf texture.

These textures are actually the wolf mount base textures (which have some cloth sections added) but used on the non-mount model.

Also, the two IE crab rares with unique looks.

OMG YES!! This is the toad I’ve always wanted, my very own Krag’wa, one more loa crossed out of the need to be tameable. I hope that one old wind serpent with the blood effects will be tameable

Did a few hours of IEs and didn't encounter the toads or wind serpents.

Did encounter the Toxinbelly though.

Update: I added the last IE rare banded wolf to the post above, plus the two IE rare spiked crabs that have unique looks.

Thanks for checking!! 💙 The wolves and crabs are now complete and I'm 99.9% certain that this simply isn't the week for toads. Maybe the fauna composition changes weekly or daily - I'm not sure which but we can keep an eye out. When toads are up there'll be 6 rare loa toads to check:

As for the blood wind serpents, I found one of the rares and it's not tameable but that's probably my fault. I never actually added that as a valid look (not sure why), so it never appeared on my suggestions list. I have now, and I've added the two IE rares with that look to the list:

Found Thundercroak on an Island Expedition. Uses the blue loa toad model, and is now tameable! Keeps his name when tamed, as well.

From GarroshTV in the secret finders discord, both versions of Grong are now tameable.

Uldir is currently not available on beta so we can't check fetid.

OH, BANANA. I thought the frogs and banded wolves were awesome additions, but this takes the cake.

Nice! That's a really good news. Now, I'm just hoping people won't have to race change to the opposite faction just to be able to tame the model they want.

That's great about Grong! I had been hoping to check out that raid but I thought old raids were currently locked on the beta. Maybe not anymore.

And awesome that Thundercroak showed up in IE. Hopefully toads are more common today and we'll be able to find more!

About that; I crept along islands for... longer than I'd like to admit, and I only found Thundercroak once. The other two who can spawn with beta's current island rotation never appeared in all of the Havenswood I ran. The other two islands, Skittering Hollow and the other I forgot the name of, don't have potential toad spawns sadly. After realizing that (and F6'ing every beast to suggest making them tameable, while keeping a list of who I reported so I didn't report the same multiple times), I focused solely on queueing until I got Havenswood, doing a lap around the water areas, leaving after doing that lap, and requeueing until I got Havenswood again. Wowhead's database is late on updating by several days now, but I'm confident that the other loa toads got the taming pass they desperately deserved.

I did see Golden Flametongue, but no fun allowed dictates that this won't be tameable. I like the cuter frog model too...

I'm on Khadgar. The location in the screenshot was the pier on the south eastern end of Havenswood, with the four sets of houses and a town square-ish area between em.

Wow that's fantastic about the white undead gorilla! I love seeing unique models become available. Now please blizz, give us the other colors of the Cloud Serpents :D

Thanks! You must have replied just before I deleted my post when I realised where the pic was taken :)

Do you mind if I use your pic for a Twitter post? And I forget what your Twitter handle is.


I'm not sure if it's my internet connection or if it's the server, but IEs are suddenly not loading properly for me, so I'm giving up for now. I'm so happy you found and confirmed one at least.

Yep, you deleted it after I already posted lol. Sure, you can use the screenshot. As for my twitter handle, let's keep that a mystery :). Regarding the island issues, are NPCs not spawning? Because I had that earlier when I stopped trying. I just figured the game was telling me to stop chasing frog booty.

I was looking at this thread and thought "what about Rezan?". He was made tameable, as an undead it requires the ability to tame them.
