Would so tame him in a heartbeat. <3.
We need some Sha beasts in Mists, would fit as their own family or a new spirit beast possibly.

Since the beta is starting to solidify and we're probably not going to see many new models I'm moving this and a couple of other threads to the regular Pet Discussion forum.

Cool i am glad everyone is liking my crazy Sha Wolf skin. That one was really an out on a limb thing for me.
I can see myself tearing through horde (and alliance) with him atleast......

I want a black spirit beast.

Wolf, cat, raptor, hyena, I don't care--but black. The current pets are beautiful, but pastels and whites just don't go with black + sets, like black + red, black + green themes. I don't just mean gear, either; if you have a big wicked black-geared orc, like me (generally s1 set or a black+red spiked set) the spirit beasts just look... odd

Oh yea. I'd tame it. Tame it ALLLL night long!


Raptalon, Ultima Online (Cu Sidhe's were for chumps!)


Any dragon from Neverwinter Nights 2.


Ancient Dragon, Ultima Online (If you know what I'm talking about, you've wanted this tamable for a LONG time as well.)


Varactyl, Star Wars (Galaxies)


Falumpaset, Star Wars Galaxies (Damn big mount!)


Dalyrake, Star Wars Galaxies (This is my awesome Ithorian Creature Handler, Doctor, Bio-Engineer, Playboy BTW. Took a picture every 10 levels to document the growth size as the pet leveled, which was seperate from the player, so it was a sucky grind with very little reward.)


Kimogilla, Star Wars Galaxies (But with lasers on their heads!)

I SERIOUSLY want THIS as a tameable pet:

If they were going to give us veractyls, I by far prefer the ones on Taris in SWTOR. They're gorgeous...and a lot of my characters would get one of those suckers as a minipet if Bioware made them available.

I'd love to see some more hybrid animals in the game!

Blizzard has done a good job of providing a few already such as the Chimeras, Wolpertingers, Wyverns, Basilisks, etc. Still, there are a few more specimens that exhibit a lot of potential ...

1. Leviathan: a great sea monster that was said to resemble a crocodile, a whale, a serpent, and a dragon.
2. Behemoth: a non-descript creature bearing enormous size and strength. Blizzard could pretty much make this whatever it wants to. The possibilites would be endless.
3. Fenghuang: a bird of Chinese mythology that combines the physical features of a rooster, crane, peacock, swallow, parrot, pheasant, and duck. It is also sometimes referred to as the Chinese phoenix.
4. Ophiotaurus: a mythical creature that was said to be half bull and half serpent.
5. Baku: a mythical creature that was said to resemble a tapir, a bear, a tiger, an elephant, an ox, a rhinocerous, and a goat.
6. Skvader: a small woodland creature from Swedish fiction that crosses the appearances of a hare and a wood grouse.
7. Yali: a creature originating from Hindu mythology that was said to resemble a lion, an elephant, and a snake.

I would also like to suggest the introduction of falcons/kestrels, sugar gliders (although I see it best as a companion pet), and kangaroos/wallabies.

Pretty sure that's the unreleased model for the Darkmoon Rabbit

I'd love to see a Skvader/Wolpertinger/Jackalope family!

Definately would love a Leviathan or Behemoth pet!
Maybe one liiiiiiiiiike....

What i really am bugging about for though is....

Yes a mongoose! They are soooo adorable.... and deadly....

Like others have said before me:

More dinosaur models. A few are already in the game; they just need to make them tamable.

Definitely more snake/reptile models. There are tons of different snake species in the world and Blizz only has cobras in the serpent family for some reason.

More insect models (i.e. dragonflies, mantis, centipedes, millipedes, etc)

Donkey! Make it happen Blizz! If you don't think they like rofl stomping things when threatened just come visit our donkey Jack at the farm I work at.

Deer, moose, antelope, bison, etc. And please put the okapi in there!

If they ever make those brown and striped giraffes tameable then you'd at least have a long-necked okapi

I don't understand people wanting herbivores as pets.
ok, I understand finding those animals cool or cute. there are some I really like too.

but I don't see them as hunter pets at all. I don't see any animal that is normally a grazing herbivore being used as a hunting partner. it just doesn't make sense to me.

maybe if someone explained their point of view to me? I'm open. I'm just saying it doesn't click for me.

Herbavours arent alsways cute cuddly and docile, like these animales.
Deer attacks Hunter
Sheep attack

Also, many farm people keep animals such as geese and llama's as guard animals because they ARE very protective and can be quite vicious.

Maybe it's the way I tend to play my hunter. I try to avoid unnecessary fights, so appreciate pets with a non-aggressive attitude. Plus, my main is mostly vegetarian, so I can eat out of the same feed bag as my herbivorous pets

Not to derail this topic much more, but I think I can see where Sukurachi is coming from. The majority of hunter pets are beasts (whether natural or fantasy) that are predatory in nature. Their wild nature is to "hunt", thus fitting the hunter theme. Goats and stags and the like may be highly aggressive, but they aren't generally thought of as natural hunters.

On the other hand, it could be argued that if a formidable, but non-predatory beast can be trained to take down a hunter's foe, there's no reason it couldn't be used. In fact I believe it's been that way from the start... with boars And certainly continued with creatures like moths.

A HONEY BADGER.

I give you the furry death that are Tribbles. Quiver as you are slowly devoured by a giganitic, amorphous ball of fur! Or buried beneath a swarm of cuddliness.
