I'm...sorry you feel that way? Challenge tames were a new and refreshing thing, in my opinion, but to each their own.

They were new and refreshing, but after you did them, you were stuck with a mob of identicle spiders or a pair of identical tigers. I know i did some of the challenge tames, but after the first handful of them I just didn't bother, it was a lot of work of pets that I knew I would eventually abandon because I don't like having two (or more) that are the exact same except for their color tones. I felt a little disappointed that they were all so similar to each other and that killed the fun of going after them. I am hoping there will be a bit more variety in the rare beasts this time.

Yeah I mean if I interpret correctly that translates :)
The appearance of each should be tamed "rare"Mob themselves but differ considerably already. I would like to see. Like that time with Loque. ex: The skin of Loque or Gondria was exceptionally. But never the new skin by Magria, or the Spiders. Yes the challenges are very nice but when the skin would be exceptionally, then it would be perfect for all the hunters.

That whit the new archivment and his "rares" are all a little challanges then yes because they have certain skills and loot.

Urgolax, the mogu warrior at the Golden Stairs is phased too... was waiting for him for ages till it clicked. I got the starter quest for the Golden Lotus from the base, and did a few quests, and everything unphased, yay!

Some of the phasing mobs can be a handful if they like to run around, Cant remember the name of the one in Eternal Blossom, near the river (and mobs of those one-eyes bog thingys) is called, but he took us (myself and...Oloages? (Ahhh, cant remember your name :( )) a bit to kill since he kept running into/out of phase.

If it's Moldo One-Eye, he has a saurok thing where he phases out and comes with a big attack, that's what all the saurok champions do. He actually one-shot me with full health and the free pvp gear, and he was nearly dead and I was just thinking "oh how now they don't kill me so much anymore" :-p

Still...sorry you both feel that way. I was beyond thrilled to have a blue version of Gondria, even if I ended up using the "white" version more (actually pale green, but who the heck can tell unless transparency's turned off). Different colors are still different skins, not everyone wants a red or orange fire spider...some like purple or green!

Urgolax is listed twice indeed. I think the list is a bit buggy, I saw a forum post made about it a couple of days ago on the MoP Beta US Bug Report forum.

For those not seeing the double listing, one is under Kah'tir in the left column and the other is above Ruun Ghostpaw in the right. (Both of them are green, which is why I'm using them for directional purposes.)

Rare Elites from Pandaria to drop "Novelty Items"

Posted: Mon Jul 23, 2012 2:39 pm

It seems rare Elites from Pandaria will be dropping novelty items, though some of those items seem more valuable than a "novelty" would be. For instance, I foresee many many many gold farmers (and everyone else) fighting to get Forager's Gloves, and one has to wonder how abusive the Hardened Shell will be (though I love the Mario Kart reference). Anyways, the full list is below:
