Simple Tome of Bone-Binding (New) Learn the dark secret to taming Undead beasts. Instant.

Really wonder how that'll work. Will there be an undead family, then? Like with Mechanicals?

WHOA. I spoke too soon.

If Kunchong and Aqir Goliaths are a thing, and Cloud Serpents, then it's mainly Brutosaur I'd still like to see. That's not bad!

[Valnaaros]

They are probably added to an existing family. All of the new or altered families are up on wowhead and mmo-c.

[worgpower]

Gruffhorns are suitable for rams due to the fact that their sheep, and coursers are probably horses, sinrunners, dreamrunners, etc

[Valnaaros]

Carapids (Krolusks), Aqiri (Silithids), and Shale Beasts (Shale Spiders) remain exotic.

[Qraljar]

Ah, did Wain have Alpacas with camels? That could work.

Brutosaurs probably a no, unless Blizzard sees fit to add them to Scalehides or something else. Giraffes probably with Coursers.

[WerebearGuy]

Oh god all this good news and I still don't have beta to go see it. This is the first expansion where I didn't have beta, so this is torture seeing all this cool new stuff pop up. Can't wait for the image dump of people finding new tameables.

[GormanGhaste]

I wonder if undead will default to knowing how to tame undead pets?

[Vephriel]

Chomping at the bit to see new beast lore reports!! Aaaaaa undead pets are one of my biggest desires, I'm so excited!

[Qraljar]

There's quite a lot that can fit in the Aqir family, honestly.

Not just Kunchong and Aqir Goliaths, but also Aqir Worms, arguably. Though they could also make good regular worms.

[worgpower]

I’m super hyped for those new families, I already knew horses got branched out to their own families, and I’m most excited to see mammoths and giant gorms tameable(hopefully will be), and all the name changes to make sense to fit other creatures, like hound, and gruffhorns, I hope we don’t get tomes for a specific covenant, ugh, skills are annoying, it took me hours to find a group for blood beasts, and weeks to get feathermanes, and grinding for mecha matrixes

[Qraljar]

I suppose Cloud Serpents won't be tameable this build? I know the item to teach the ability got datamined, but I haven't seen a family yet?

Also hi Jeremy.

Fleethoof: The Courser gallops quickly, increasing dodge chance by 30% for 20 sec.

Hardy: When falling below 40% health, the Camel will shrug off attacks, granting 60% reduced incoming damage for 15 sec.
This effect can only occur once every 120 sec.

Trample: The Mammoth tramples the target, slowing movement by 50% for 6 sec.

According to Wowhead, the actual ability that allows you to tame them and undead were not added in this build.

[WerebearGuy]

Speaking of Cloud Serpents, PLEASE DEAR GOD do not make Nalak tameable. Oondasta is enough of a mistake; put a new PC somewhere with that model instead. It's already hell having to farm those two world bosses weekly, but having to fight to kill it would be even more obnoxious.

Yeah, so I guess there's no use in trying to do that.

I would suppose the book to tame them is from an Order of the Cloud Serpents vendor? Considering the rep requirement. Uhh.. could be better if it's BoA? Because my hunter definitely isn't my exalted character. Though I guess it'd be easy enough to grind out again.

[worgpower]

Looks like I’ll grind my way to exalted on my hunter now

Looking through the DB. Found these

The fox has already been found, and I assume the serpent will be some sort of rare, hmm, I hope the undead tome won’t be too much of a grind and time consuming hours to obtain it

Wonder if Pandaren hunters will start with Cloud Serpents.
