I'm glad to see the regular, non-mount white model will still be available. I know most people here love the sabercats, but I can't say I do. Cats are supposed to be lithe and well, cat-like, IMO. The saber models are too clunky for my tastes.

Still, I'm happy for everyone who has wanted these skins to be made available. Congrats :)

...That new huntress model! So gorgeous. Hmmm... Might have to drop Shadowclaw for one if the eyes are bright in darkness like his are.

BAH! Frostsaber change >=(

No, I'm not mad cause I got my Wintersaber back in classic in the literally worst grind in the game...

I'm mad cause now I get to miss out on this totally adorable quest equivalent to the Horde raptor!!! ;_; I WANNA RAISE MY OWN MOUNT TOOOOOO

Blizzard needs to make another recolor of the raptor and tiger (aqua tiger mount anyone?) so I can do this quest and raise a kitty. XD

I wished for that sort of cub SO MUCH while grinding Wintersaber rep, especially as I contrasted the long, monotonous grind to the adorableness of the Ravasaur dailies (it GROWS I mean how freaking cute is that). This might actually mean an alt or two gets a purple tiger, instead of reserving the pretty shiny to Ziarre alone.

....but wait a sec. If they're changing the Wintersaber grind to a horde-style kitten romp, will they be getting rid of the wintersaber trainer rep?

....oh man, suddenly I'm not sure if I'm content to sit back and wait. My distaste for the dailies warring with my want for another rep maxed out... erf.

The white saber cat!!!! <3

So happy right now. SO happy.

This may be a bit early still, but wouldn't it be a good idea to start a single thread listing all the new pet changes that may or may not come this patch, so we can have it all nice and neat in one awesome post of tastiness?

Thanks! I had figured probably that was the case, but after finally deciding to nab her, I was hit with a pang of paranoia :P

That's a shame as my mother wanted Rak'Shiri for being the gorgeous NE model and got her a few months back but at the very least they fixed this stupid common problem. Thank God Sendeni tamed a Pridewatcher so not cocking about retaming, yay! Keae will have a field day when I get leveling her again.

Intact....for now. They'll probably remove it later.

They could yes, but I don't see them doing that since it will put one faction behind the other in terms of the total count per side.

(horde has Tranquillian or however that's spelled)

But there would be no way to gain the rep of the trainers.

They'll probably put something else in or take away Tranquillian.

They'll likely keep it as a "hidden" rep counting towards the exalted achievements in the background... you know since unlike some of the past removed reps it was actually doable.

Maybe but some may cry fowl for that.

I not sure about this........the alliance have 1 more rep than the Horde do, that means getting rep achievements for the alliance is easier for them because they have more choice. Remember how for the vast majority of the game alliance had 2 more obtainable mini-pets than the Horde (Westfall Chicken, Sprite Darter) and mounts (they had more racial mounts and the Winterspring tiger). When they introduced achievements they evened them out because of the outrage of unbalance between the 2 factions. Now I know 1 may not seem like much but they recently took out a few reps so there less now making that 1 have more weight than it did before. I think they are just going to take it out to make things even. Most likely get a Feat of Strength for being exalted with them tho, like with the other removed reps. Just my thoughts tho. :mrgreen:
