Zombiesaur

So, yesterday Caelan and I were chatting about devilsaur colours. She brought up the interesting idea that the white devilsaurs actually look quite plagued with their curdled pale skin and rot-grey teeth. Very similar to the plagued proto drakes in fact.

Well, once I looked at them in that manner I was suddenly spurned with the desire to try this out...on my undead hunter of course.

So Spiders went out to break her stable theme a bit (I don't feel too hesitant about it - with the release of the new lava spiders in Cataclysm there are no longer enough stable spaces to house one of every spider model in game, which was my original plan for her, so instead she's going to settle for having most of them). I had been wanting an exotic pet on her anyways...she's BM specced, but had no exotics since none really felt right with her yet (she's at level 71 currently).

Anyways...Cae and I headed to Un'goro and began the hunt. As Murphy's Law dictates, whenever you want a specific devilsaur colour, it will never be up. We found King Mosh, two Ironhides, and a Tyrant patrolling around. Cae killed the Ironhides for me (I can't bring myself to ;_;), and then...we waited. We were there for over an hour at least, and man do those devilsaurs have long respawn timers. We looked and looked and I eventually decided I'd just check in periodically. I did a loop just before I went to bed and still no luck.

This morning I logged in on Spiders, and right below me was an Ironhide Devilsaur. I flew a bit south and finally a white Devilsaur appeared! Tamed without a hitch.

His name is Zombiesaur. I might have found a spontaneous keeper. :lol:

I'm quite pleased by this development as the white devilsaurs were the one colour I couldn't quite get a feel for. Though I love the purple, when it was paired beside white it came across as a bit too pale, and the pink eyes never did much for me. Seeing it as a plagued dino completely changed my view of them though. :D

I had never thought of the white devilsaurs that way, but now that you mention it....

The white and purple really go with your undead girl.

Oh man, the whites are my favourites! They look brilliant beside Dona, so I've always had a thing for them. Glad to see you found a way you like them!(:

He looks so cool! Especially beside your character on her purple mount, they really complement one another.
I can't wait to get a devilsaur myself.

I never thought of the white devilsaurs that way, but it works.

My boyfriend's favorite pet is his white devilsaur named Ginnalka, or Ginny for short as we call her. So, I have a soft soft for the white devilsaurs although I have no interest in taming any devilsaur myself.

Hehe, I'm glad my view worked for you! And that you actually seem to like the tamed pet and not just the concept. I was a bit worried about that one. Hooray, Zombiesaur! <3

Hee, that's awesome!!! I never thought of them that way, either, but it really does work. I think those bright, pinkish eyes are the icing on the cake. :D Isn't there a white undead skeletal horse mount from the Argent Tournament dailies? ;)

Guys, I'm completely in love with this 'saur. :D So happy I went with that random urge to try it out, because the white one has never appealed to me and it's amazing to see it in a new light. ^^

They look amazing together. :D

I never really liked Devilsaurs until I got my pretty green girl myself, but Jinde, as I named her, has really grown on me.
