I just tamed Chibee and he has been reduced in size. I tamed a normal worm to just compare size, and Chibee is still bigger but no were near the size they once were.

I'm kinda sad,but glad in a way. He was making it hard to loot and talk to quest mobs for me :lol:

It was bound to happen with the size Chibee was, but at least they were nice enough to keep a bit of an enlargement for those that liked it. :)

That obnoxiously huge bug is getting shrunk? Good! I'm sorry, but that thing was massive, especially when BW is used.

At least he's still a little bigger than the rest!

He was extremely fun and novel at the enormous size, but he's more for getting attention than practical use. He gets in the way of everything.

Yea this means an abandon for me. Luckily that means more space for all the new rares!

Silkworm mount would be awesome.

I'll probably still keep Chibee (aka Happy) after he's shrunk. I already have Tape, a jorumgar worm, and confess that I really only tamed Chibee at first so that I could show people how huge he is. He made me think of Insectosaurus in Monsters Vs Aliens. He's kinda grown on me, so he'll probably stay in my stable for now.

Having a huge worm is cool and fun; however there are way to many hunters who due to not noticing, accident or even on purpose, would drape this guy over quest givers, mail boxes, merchants and many other things you want to click on or see. They are worse than the large mounts for that.

So, while I'll miss seeing a hunter out and about with the huge worm(it gives me a smile to see him), I'll be gleeful they aren't in towns or quest hubs anymore.

I think it is super cool he's still a little bigger, just like the scarab from naxx is still a little smaller. :D

This is greatly saddening.

Mine is still pretty huge, but I do play a dwarf, after all. It still is a very awesome pet for PVP because of the visual obstruction it causes and because of the Burrow ability which causes dmg and is a decent aoe.

It also makes using it in an instance pretty useless for those same reasons. Burrow drops ALL aggro the pet has built up as well single-questing or fighting. Check out wowhead how to catch him out of phase.

In 5.1, does the smaller Chibee still do that little flip sometimes during attack? Thank you!

As a hunter this makes me sad.

As a gnome rogue this makes me happy :3 I've had to kill headless horseman guy from inside a giant caterpillar.

I wonder how many gnomes fit inside a chibee.

Nearly the end of things, and Chibee is still smaller than he was, but still about 10% to 25% bigger than any of the other worms. So for those who are worried, it *is* a noticable size difference! Just not gargantu-worm.

Like some here I might replace my Chibee. I gotta see what it looks like.
