Why not make a common spirit beast? it's the only family with out a common beast that you can find just about anywhere. this is just a thought you can call me crazy but i think it'd make the rare spawns seem more rare

I actually agree with that idea, I've thought the same thing before. For people who would just like the utility or ability of a Spirit Beast, a common spawn or one with a drastically lowered respawn rate would be nice I think.

i vote to make it a quest target.. it'll spawn like every 5-10min :D

http://www.wow-petopia.com/family/bat.html <--- spirit bat = ftw. Maybe make it a dark/vampire bat.. Or.. maybe a "vampire blood elf" whatever those were called.. that maybe got stuck in bat form - you need to take him out by taming him or killing him. That way bats get love

I love this idea! Two thumbs up

A spirit raptor would rock my socks and I could totally see spirit raptors inhabiting some little pocket of the Barrens...

I would totally love this idea, perhaps some spirit raptors that roam around the The Great Divide area OR tucked away in the Wailing Caverns.

I would have to disagree with this idea. The Sweetness of a spirit beast is its rarity if they make a spirit beast that's a common mob it takes away the cool factor of the Spirit beast class itself. Case in point with the spiders in Molten Front the 2 people want the most are Deth and Solix, Why Cause of how unique they are, now i know if ya just want a spider you can go tame any old spider but the point is having a Pet class that exclusively rare makes the pet class and pet ability more of a awesome thing to have.

this class of pet actually makes us hunt we are hunters after all. This class of pet actually makes us hunt it to make it out own. Having 50 million of this class roam around one area is really no different than going to a petting zoo and shooting a deer in a cage.

The pet ability is like a reward to the hunter that took the time to go out and hunt this rare creature and make it there own. As far as a Spiteflayer goes, is not a rare class its classified as a Carrion Bird witch is a common class.

Skoll and Loque seem to be the only two that are hard due to them being more popular. Also, if you want a more exotic class for a hard to get pet that people constantly camp for.........Krush or Nuramoc. There ya go. So no, Spirit beasts aren't the only FAMILY that people spend their time hunting for. It really goes for any rare, period, no matter the family.

see i think your missing my point Spirit beast is the only rare class people have to acually hunt case all spirit beasts are rare making it a rare class. Krush is a rare spawn but his Class is fairly common cause hes a devilsaur, so yes spirit beasts are the only FAMILY/CLASS that people spend there time hunting and sometimes people do get lucky and find there spirit beast on the first time looking but more times than not they may have to hunt it down for hours and or days. and as far as Northrend spirit beasts being nothing to get, why are there still horror stories of people looking for them?

people like rare spawns cause they look different and give there pet a unique look. With the spirit beast you get that plus you get a unique ability, if you make it common you lose the uniqueness of that ability

Yep time to take something out of nubhorns book



It's about time there was a common mob I mean really the little heal is handy

no ones really trolling

There are people who look to tame a pet for its looks, not just because its rare. If they made a common spirit beast then if people wanted it for looks, they would tame. Blizzard isnt forcing us to tame them, they're giving us models and the chance to decide whether we want to tame or not.

There are 'rare' hunters and there are 'look' hunters, i am a 'look' hunter. I will take the easier, common skin of a model because im only after the looks of it. If the rare happens to be up, i treat it as the common and tame, kill (usually only if i know theres no harm in it like say, if i was to kill the lvl 37 wind serpent Hayoc for the experience boost if i happen to be around its lvl when i see it) or ignore.

I dont camp because its fun, i camp because i want the specific look and the mob im camping happens to be the only one that is using the skin i want at the time (example, if im lvl 74+, im not gonna tame Humar unless im somewhere in mid-kalimdor, i'll be going for the easier skin Pitch because hes up all the time, being a quest target.)

I'm all in for a common Spirit beast I mean to every one who will say "but it makes them common" my WHITE TALLSTRIDER is rarer than any spirit beast! I mean go into a town how many of those do you see compared to a SB?

I'm a bit of both i like pets that look cool but i also like the idea of the ability that gives me a little heal when i dont have any food or anything to replenish my health and i like the idea that i had to hunt and do a little work for that ability.
