Florawing Hive Queen now tameable

The Florawing Hive Queen in ZG is now tameable.

Ok, this isn't all that exciting. We already knew she was tameable, but she's level 86 so it's never been possible before MoP. She has a unique look, but only because she's the only boss model wasp with the "SilithidWaspBossSkin2" colour. There are non-boss model wasps that use the skin already (in the same instance). She is incredibly pretty, though. I'll give her that.

Image

She also hurts quite a lot. I took some elixirs and ate haste food just to be safe. Currently you also have to be level 87, as there's a bug preventing you taming stuff of the same level as you.

Image

She was small when first tamed, but upon resummoning she became HUGE. This is a common bug with wasps on the beta currently.

Image

Just to illustrate the difference between the boss and non-boss versions. The boss is the first image. It has a much cuter face, and cooler legs, wings and stinger:

She is indeed pretty! <3 If I had the ability to bond with wasps I'd give her a try on one of my characters. I'll just have to admire her from afar, I suppose.

I wonder... We should compare her to Princess Huhuran! :lol:

BTW, Prince Lakma should be tameable by anyone who has level 88. He's not a unique look but would be nice to confirm at some stage.

I was just thinking about him! Can't wait until Syleanora can tame him on live. <3

I wonder if Lockmaw is tameable now, the only other mob with his skin is Gorebite and you need to be on a quest to tame him.

I don't know about Lockmaw, but there is another purple crocolisk in MoP, Maglemaw's Mother. If you kill Manglemaw (this giant baby crocolisk in Valley of the Four Winds) his mother will come out. She doesn't have a diet on beta but she might later on!

For those interested, she drops a tail that can be turned in for a tiny amount of XP.


I also think I remember seeing on WoWhead that there's another purple crocolisk, but I haven't seen it in beta yet.

Bahahaha! Oh Wain, taming her right now is priceless, just due to the size bug. ;) I mean, uh, no pun intended. Right....

Alright I just checked Lockmaw, he's still untameable. No diet either.

I should also add that Tor-Tun, the turtle animal mini-boss in ZG, is still flagged untameable.

As are the hydras of course ;)

Text alone will not let me pout enough at either of these statements. :(
