I-- I love the Zandalari.. i love them to death ;^; now their siding with the gurubashi which they sought and successfully with the help of horde and ally destroyed and now no questions asked the gurubashi are accepting their help and power to rebuild themselves and lend their hand into a new war ._. sadness.. but oooooo i want all those baby cubs and though i love the zandalari, if they have their tribe set up in ZG i will cut every one of their heads off to get the precious baby raptor (i forget her name..). I did the quest line and was devastated that it ended with her being recaptured and braaaaainwashed >:(

True but Gurubashi is an extremely aggressive tribe, always warring with the more collected and shadowy Darkspear and god or not the Zandalari would eventually fight them and destroy their empire like the high elves and humans did to the Amani so that they couldnt rise up again to take Stranglethorn Vale and probably surrounding zones for themselves

I think the picture in the post is a little misleading--people might think most of the 5 minipets are from the new instances. The spore walker is a new pet available from the Shattrath Children's Week orphan quests, and the Winterspring Cub is available from a new pet vendor in Everlook. Even the Panther Cub seems to be available from a solo quest chain in STV. Anyone know anything about the other two minipets?

The raptor is from ZG and the quest for the panther cub is tied to the new ZG.

Lots of fuss over the new bear being "the next bronze drake". I assume that means it's a guaranteed drop if you meet the criteria, which I believe is the same as the last war bear - i.e. a time limit. Interesting stuff. I don't think it cheapens the mount at all, honestly - we won't overgear the instance enough to faceroll to the mount for months, more than likely, so I am betting it will stay at least somewhat rare for the time being.

Not that I ever use my other bears, but my polar bear-riding warrior friend will be happy. :)

I just want the baby tripod(and the snail!)!

Well, that's rather crap. Taking a big piece of lore, making them evil just for the sake of essentially recycling one patch of one expansion seems pretty lame.

I am Exalted with the Zandalari and I thought that their level-headed views on things were nice and refreshing. This is just rather sad.

"You’ll want to seek out its precious booty, including an account-bound ring with a gem so big it’s visible when worn!"

That sounds fun, though. Visible rings?

Considering I'm a quest nut and have done almost all (Horde/neutral) quests from Classic to Cata, I don't think I have much high ground to stand on anymore... Much as there have been a number of quests I would much rather not have done as they've felt very out-of-character, I don't want to drop a quest line because I don't like a single quest. I much preferred Dragon Age where I actually had a choice in most cases...


Complete side-track: I am not evil. this is AmIEvil, with one of my favorite remixes.

They could of easly replaced the Zandalari trolls with Dark trolls and it would make sence also. I'm glad I got Exalted with them when they were cooler.
