Oh, that walk... -.-
I find it really ugly. Maybe just me tough.

I know people have checked the flats, but what about the rest of the zone? Hows it look underwater? Dead bodies there to?

I started working on that request, but in my search so far I've found evidence of the former humanoid inhabitants in terms of vacant dwellings but nothing else.

Don't think any scaled or armoured creatures would float, but the rest... Picked off by scavenger birds..?
Edit: On a different note: Are professions up and working yet? Kinda interested to know wether Engineering might have some BoE underwater breathing device... $$$$

In that case, in the name of science: To the helium containers!!
If they don't float, at least we'll have crabs with funny voices!
Unless they, you know... go *pop*.

A new build for the beta will be going up tonight. I'm not sure when the servers will be ready but I'll try and provide updates if I'm able to. I'm really anticipating some new mobs to be around so I'll poke around as soon as I'm able.

Silithid ravagers galore!
Except they're color-changers, and the colors they switch between are red and tan.
Edit: They're blue as well... still checking for more colors.
Edit #2: There's a Colossus in the hive as well now... picture provided.

Indeed, I added another picture to the post you responded to as well. There's a Colossus in the hive in addition to workers and all of those Silithid ravagers. =)

Ah, and shall I mention there are dead goblins floating around? Seems the goblin's hunch in Tanaris was spot on for his second guess. It seems like they enjoy the goblins so much they save them as treats.

Just a quick review for people that might want to just scroll down to the bottom of the thread and get to the interesting bits, I'll give a little summary of what I saw.
Silithid ravagers now come in three different colors that change when you summon them in addition to being all over the place as opposed to there being one color of a rare spawn in that area. Workers are present in the underwater hive as well as a silithid Colossus called "Hive Controller." There also appear to be steam pumps going through their hive for some strange reason. In closing, the ice cream vendor is in a boat above the hive with dead goblins floating under the water around the hive itself. I'm sure there's probably a gnome or two around there as well. Screen-shots were posted earlier.

I assume the controller is untameable?
Very cool find! Thanks for the screenies/news!

Noooo... I like my solid colors! I hope the original Silithid Ravager won't turn into a color changer sorry to those who like that fluff but I'd prefer a solid color to my pets.

You can still get the Vekniss Warrior in Ahn'Qiraj if you want a solid color. I have one of those on live instead of the Silithid Ravager.
Edit for Kalliope-
You guessed correctly. My beast lore however, worked on him. While he's not tamable he IS a beast.

So those who have Silithid Ravager, it's now a color changer in beta?
