I happened to remember someone complaining about Daggercap Hawks still having 'droopy-butt'. Tamed one on the PTR and found that they no longer do!



Seagulls still droop, unfortunately.

Any other 'droopy-butt' pets that people can think of for me to test out?

Condors and Eagles! <3 Please go check.. Especially the golden eagle and the white condor <3! Please and thank you

The golden eagle is fine. I checked it while I was checking the perching of birds. (By the by, they perch normally now too).

I'm pretty sure the white condor is already fixed. Seems I had no problems at all with my Lord Condar, at least. Will check out the dragonbone ones once I can head over to Northrend without getting stuck.

EDIT: Checked the dragonbone condors. They're fine, too. Starting to look like seagulls are the last remaining casualty.

/SQUEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My birdies need to come home!! <3!!!!

What about lighting issues?

Yay! I can finally retame a hawk or an eagle on my baby hunter!!

This, I'm not sure of. I didn't *see* any, but then again it's not something I look for. What are the lighting issues you're mentioning?

Back when the white eagles looked all funkified and pixelly I think is what she's referring to; they were a hot mess.

Yeah. there's a topic in pet discussion about it.

Currently the vulture models seem to be suffering from the lighting glitches. The shadows display oddly on the wings, giving large blocky shapes of darkness. I think it may be especially on the Outland two-headed models.

Is this on PTR or live? My blood elf huntress has the two-headed red vulture and I haven't noticed any weird issues with her.

On live currently. On some colours it's hard to pick out, especially depending on lighting.

Huh, maybe I don't use my bird enough to notice anything wrong with her.

Well some birds its more noticable. Spiteflayer has a problem but its hard to tell unless you're actually looking for it at a certain angle.

I'm afraid it looks like that issue is still there. I'm hovering over a wild Zaricotl as we speak, and the edging on his feathers is so sharp and jagged you could cut with it.

HE CUT YOU!

Sorry. Rofl. but goddamnit. D:

I happened to notice the Dire Condors have a case of droopy-butt when they are flying around in Redridge. Even when they're attacking. That worried me. However, when you actually *tame* them, their hoverbutt goes away and they fly normally. Just so you know!

Can't wait - my twink's raven has been sitting in the stable since lvl 10 on account of this annoying effect (which only got added in the first place as part of Blizzard's efforts to prevent flying pets from... flying. Balance, I know, but still a bit ironic).

Yay!

...Wait, droopy-butt? Never heard of that being a problem until now. Could someone clarify what the so-called problem was (or is)?
