So uh, anyone have an issue with the game crashing when logging into a character?
I was in Korthia, tamed a Gromit, headed back towards camp, crashed, and now I crash anytime I log into that character. It won't let me delete her either.
Yep! I was in eastern Korthia, I think in that Mawsworn area south of the hub, where I crashed and couldn’t log back in. I tried all the usual tricks but had no luck. Eventually I deleted the character and copied it across from live again.
The only way I can think of that might save the character is to wait until the game offers you a faction transfer, as I don’t think the web-based character unstick service covers test realms. But it wasn’t worth the hassle for me anyway.

Yep, that's exactly where I was.

Not a new tameable beast, but dragonhawk mounts, not including wild beasts and the armored dragonhawk mounts from the mount achievement, they have received a new animation update, the same exact ones as vengeance, hopefully the tameable dragonhawks and mana rays will also receive those new movement animations along with new attack animations, here’s a link to the ptr wowhead dragonhawk mount

Can always hope they add the missing gromit colours! But at least they added gromits

For the one person who cares, pink elekks are still friendly and flagged tameable. Brewfest is around the corner, and I recall being able to attack the ones you zap...so maybe?

Oh, do they become aggro? If so, there's a good chance you can tame one. But I thought the dispersal ray just made them vanish. It's been a while :/
And I definitely care! I'd love to see one tameable

I don’t think that they aggro. I remember that they are friendly, you start zapping them, and they continue walking around like nothing is happening until they are dispersed by the zap.

I looked up a video (from 2015) and you're right. They stay green and just stand there.
I wonder if it would affect the quest in any way if they were made neutral.

could be too little and too soon to speculate, but this does give me that small twinge of hope...I'd love for a special devourer unlock tame in the future
