Taming yourself, and other forms, as your pet.
Posted: Tue Apr 03, 2012 12:30 am
In the quest The Cleansing, we have a thread up vaguely detailing a newly discovered glitch, where a hunter pet took on the form of it's owner, like the mob Inner Turmoil does. (http://forums.wow-petopia.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=17363) That thread is detailing how to get rid of the snag -- I'm interested in replicating it. Who wouldn't want to fromp around with yourself.. punching Deathwing right in his stupid tentacles.
Now, I've been mucking with the quest for a few hours, trying to work up the details. I picked up all 3 skins of the cat the first glitchee seems to have, but that doesn't seem to be the ticket.
The two possible glitch occurrences seem likely to occur either:
1) When Inner Turmoil first appears, after a 7 second summon time.
2) When Inner Turmoil aggros.
The second seems to be the most likely by far, at this point. I've noticed the game captures your image for Inner Turmoil at two points. These two points. If you change clothes while Inner Turmoil is unattackable and yammering your ear off, it will do a quick snap -- out of sight -- and change into what you're wearing when it aggros. If you FD, it goes blank. Just a buff of smoke and a weapon.
WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?!
Dunno yet!
But this is a neat little thing I'm willing to try out. Inner Turmoil captures what you look like.. this includes costumes, like Orb of the Sindorei, Murloc Costume, Leyara's locket... even debuffs, like the Worgen bites in Duskwood, and the Demon Form from Durotar.
If anyone wants to help figure this out, it would be much appreciated!
And since it's changing your existing pet's skin, it's certainly not a damage enhancer.
