@Dave_Maldo Any plans for pets that are tamed to keep special effects like Duskstalkers in jade forest with the shadowform?


Dave Maldonado ‏@Dave_Maldo 5h

@StephenDawson14 Looking into tech that'll put visuals like that on display level and not an aura; not sure when it'll be ready & applied.


Posting this here as it'll be WoD before the tech is found I bet :P

Sounds interesting! the problem with it currently is people can get 200% damage buff pets if they just allow the buff to stay, maybe if they change the skins of those mobs then found the tech to change between the two.

Oooooh awesome! I hope beasties like the tiger with the chain collar from Jade Forest or the Icepaw Bears from Zul'Drak for examples will have their visual effects permanently added to their ID code so people can have them with said effect without chance of losing them! (the tigers collar persists through death but the bears feet glow doesn't. And both effects disappear when tamed legit)

I'm glad they're noticing we like little things like that.

Ohhh this sounds great! Although I will miss the challenge of taming these pets and that *special feeling* of having such a limited edition beast, I would love for more hunters to have the chance to enjoy such pets as my Scabbard and Samantha. (sword wolf and collar kitty.) I helped lots of hunters tame various pets with special visual and made lots of friends doing it but I know lots of hunter who missed their chance and would love to see this happen.
Its a shame my pets wont be as "special" but I'm glad others will have a chance to enjoy them.

I will gladly give up "special" for my other hunters, and hunters who missed them, to have a chance at them. As for the ones that were trick tamed, I'll know who mine are ;)
