...You don't have to just strip naked. You have to camp these pets just as much as you had to camp Loque. Each gimmick is different. For all we know, there'll be one where you have to defeat an entire battleground single-handedly while drinking seven iced chais and watching Doctor Who. It will be harder than taming Loque. The only difference is that people who aren't hunters won't be camping it for achievs. You can still get slaughtered by DKs and warlocks, especially if you're on a PvP server like myself. This is a rare pet who will smack your ass down if you try and tame him without knowing what you're doing. So far, out of the two, one can't be trapped/slowed. The other one has to be unless you want it to eat your face off. Loque won't kill you unless you seriously screw up, can be trapped, and all in all is a lot easier to tame.

This is more like pre-nerf KK. Plus some extra badass.

Valid points all around, but I'm still not sure what this has to do with a Loque reskin. :P I think the bottom of the matter is that it's not going to end the world or devalue the tames of people who own Loque.

If you guys wanted one, what sort of thing would you be looking for? A total reskin, a color change, a fire theme? I'd love a pet - even a spirit beast - who focused less on fire and more on Hyjal's foliage instead. Vines, the occasional blooming flower - like Rhok'delar slapped on a critter(although maybe not a cat!).

Perhaps it could be another mate of Harkoa, twisted by Deathwing or the Twilight Cultists? We already have cases of her babies being corrupted, why not a consort? /bad reasoning
Still do want.

I want to see a rhino added here. Giant, with green fur and flowers growing (They could be like the staves where flowers aren't there, then they grow randomly, before retreating again) from it, white legs/face, glowing light green eyes, and a dark green (Or Ivory/ebony) horn. Around it's legs would be four bands made of thorn covered vines, and it's "Idle" movements would spawn small flowers around it. I would do -anything-, even drop every pet I've ever had, just for an oppurtunity to tame this.

Want fiery basilisk :I

Also, I hope Deth'tilac's going to be a mix between that nerubian magma arachnid and a normal magma arachnid, if not a tamable version of the nerubian model. ( But yeah, I guess I have to believe Wain when he says it was intended to be too intelligent to tame) Still somewhere, have hope for it to be tamable though.

Hmmm, now that the third one's been found (Gondria's Brother, a blue recolour), I really hope that the Zombie Arturius is next! Or just maybe a new creature we haven't seen yet in game.

I really hope it's not the zombie bear, I despise bears ingame >_>

Of course, if it -is-, then I'll at least be civil about my displeasure while congratulating those who now have a bear to camp

Well I hope its something new but you have to agree to one thing guys, we so did not see a recoloring of actual spirit beasts coming.. now if thats a good thing or bad things *shrugs* I however do really feel bad for those on the pvp server.. they cant kill the rare but they can for sure kill you.. especially with little health.

Strip down and cc?! PSHHHH Be a real hunter and take it like a man! er.. woman.. er... dog thingy.. uhh.. space goat.. .... well you get the whole thing. All this does is basically make it so they are impossible to kill and a challenge to tame.. the only thing thatll make it perfect is it the next are unique.. and please.. non spirit beasts I mean really.. 9 spirit beasts in total now

thank you Ashaine and Kurenio!!!!

This is the only thing that has me worried, really, but I don't think Blizz would do that to the people who play Surv/MM with either a rarely used or nonexistent BM off-spec. I think there's a screenshot of a red/orange/whatever spider rare who looks like he might be part of the group, which is something, but I'd like to see boars and the like get some love too. Piggies are awesome.
