LOL I didn't realize this. How on earth has this been missed for so long? Bumparino!
I knew my Shoveltusk wasn't the sharpest knife in the drawer but the poor thing doesn't even know how to bite or smack

Well, the PTR build is now a release candidate. So it's actually going to launch in this state.
I don't know what else to do to try and get Blizzard to care about this... I mean at the very least it would be nice for oxen and scalehides to have BASIC ATTACKS!!
BTW, nice comic Quiv. Maybe Oxen are supposed to be "simple." Working as intended.

Yeah I know, it's crazy

Muffinus contributes to pet tames a bit, but he's not a class designer and he has a frackload of other things to worry about right now. It shouldn't have to be his problem, the class designers should be onto this.
I don't know how to get the attention of the actual class designers. Personally I think they're so badly overburdened with the redesign that they *need* to believe Hunters are ok and avoid considering the possibility that they're not. If it's not a bug that will cause widely-publicised embarrassment (say, if large numbers of people retweeted a
certain tweet about it) then I get the feeling that the class designers will try to worry about it at a later date if they can.
Posting in the class feedback forum certainly isn't enough or it would have been fixed long ago.

I could be mis-remembering, but didn't it take a while for basilisks to get a family ability? At least they could still fight, I guess.

That sounds familiar. I know it took a whole expansion for sporebats to get a basil attack. I'd hope the developers would be paying better attention now than in TBC.

It'd be nice if people could support it and re-tweet.
