Eeh, green eyes! Did you just get a lucky shot, or do those also glow read?

They have the red glow on my screen, it's just fainter at that angle in that light.

This! They have green eyes under the glow.

Oh, that's nice. I'm not too fond of the red glow otherwise, I'd love other colours aswell.

Unfortunately the glow is attached to the model not the skin, which means everything with that model gets that glow (as far as I know), much like the core hound fire colour.

Would be nice if they could change that! I don't like the red glow personally at all...so I probably will never tame one of the hunched kitties. ;-; /sad I like their shine though!

Even if they couldnt change the model of the beast itself, at LEAST change the "red" glow to green. A red glow over green eyes makes no sense. =( ( Or is the color of the glow tied into the model as well? )

Love the new shiny skin but do we really need another cat ?

Yes, the model has a red glow attached to it.

I'm sure they could code it to behave differently if they wanted. For example the colour of the fire on the Kurken's model is covered by a separate skin file and can be changed.

Yeah, I'd be very surprised if they had time to re-make tallstriders when the in-game ones aren't bad to begin with. From what I hear the art team is very busy atm

Zangor wrote:based on the trend now (wrath spirit beasts got less spawn points until there was only 1) and how cataclysm seems to add more spirit beasts per patch (2 shipped with it and 3 where added with 4.2) i really would be sad if we didnt get at least 1 new spirit beast with 4.3.....and i hope we get another completely original spirit beast not another recolor

I believe the large number in last patch were because (i) we didn't get any in the previous patch and (ii) two of the three were a previously used model for the sake of using beautiful skins that otherwise would be sadly unavailable. I suspect if they did add more SBs using previous models then they'd likely again add them alongside a new one. And Skoll is the only one with unused alternate skins. Then again, if they didn't have time to make a new SB then just alternate Skoll skins would be better than nothing

Two new wolves, named 'Hugin' and 'Munin'?

.... or wait. The wolves were Freke and Gere, weren't they? ... gah. My mythology is falling apart.

Hee, Hugin and Munin were Odin's ravens. ^^

Meh not bad but I'd like a new model. Also any word on them Hydras?

Fenrir and Freki werent they?

Freki and Geri

Fenrir was the giant monster-wolf and father of Sköll and Hati.

Not gonna lie, I read that as 'Frank and Gary' and had a serious lol. Best mob names ever.

Wain, are there any other white hunched cats that the third ID might end up as?

(And does anyone else find it ironic that I have to ask Wain this? )
