Silly question, I know, but are exotic pets retaining their unique abilities as well (ie Rhino horn toss)? Reason I ask is because I see the Devilsaur's Monstrous Bite listed up there but not it's other ability.

I'm not even close to finishing ^_^' Still a WIP that I'm doing currently.

Ok, done now
I'm not sure how to organize all the abilities, however I tried to combine the debuffs to enemies, and buffs to raids together. Some of the exotic abilities got thrown in at the bottom o_o'

Oh yay, THANK YOU; we needed this thread!

Some minor notes/suggestions:
-Ravager is spelled incorrectly. >_>
-It would be lovely if the exotic pets were more clearly listed as such (the asterisk is hard to see), maybe under a subheading at the bottom of each section.
-You could organize the list this way: the buffs available to all (crit, haste, mastery), the BM buffs (stam, kings, spellpower, heroism/bloodlust), debuffs (reduced armor, physical damage taken, magical damage taken, slowed casting speed, slowed physical attack speed, reduced physical damage done), utility (AoE damage, heal, battle res, interrupt, disarm, stun, short CC*, knockback, slowed movement speed, reduced healing), and hunter-specific pets (reduced pet damage taken, water walking).

*By "short CC," I'm combining blind (monkeys), sleep (cranes), and cyclone (basilisks) into the same category, since none of these abilities is a stun. If attacked, the blind and sleep effects will break, and the cyclone blocks all incoming damage and healing.

Hope this helps!

That's a great help! I'll get to work on it ^_^

Thanks for this, it will help me finalize which families I decide to tame this expansion.

*watches the changes go into place* I like where this is going! <3

Please pardon the dust as we are currently under construction :3

All cleaned up

Glad to be of help
I needed this just as well.
I hope the new layout helps and looks good. Thanks again Kalli for the suggestions!

Thanks for the hard work! Very much appreciated. I've definitely been looking for a consolidated list like this for a while.

Eee, I love it! <3 Thanks for doing all this; will make life easier.

Hero? Really? The term used should be lust, the original hero.

Yeah, Hero. Do you say "I'm bringing the Lustdog?" No, you do not. You say "I'm bringing the Herodog."

Burst Haste is faction neutral?

Didn't know it was a faction thing o_O' Goes to show you how much lore I know ^_^;
I'll change it to burst haste.

Hehe, yeah back in Vanilla the Horde were the only ones who had shamans, and the ability was Bloodlust. When Draenei shamans were introduced they gave theirs the name Heroism to be more fitting with the Alliance I suppose.

Magli wrote:Yeah, Hero. Do you say "I'm bringing the Lustdog?" No, you do not. You say "I'm bringing the Herodog."

<3

That is the best explanation for leaning toward hero as a name EVER.

Agreed that a faction neutral "burst haste" is better. I didn't think anything of it this time, since, well, I play alliance and hero was already in the game by the time I was.

Hehe, though Lustdog has a ring to it.

I've been playing mainly Alliance so long that I tend to default to 'hero.' This...probably get me odd looks when I play Horde, although I can't remember anyone saying anything about it.
