Hey! Started playing my hunter again and was wondering if their was more pets out there that had unique details to them that retain after the tame.
Aka Thunderhorn... a Yak with lightning on his horn.
Or that one wolf with a spear in its head.

I thought I had a page up about those! I certainly document "modified looks" in the database for that purpose. I'll take a look and see where the page got to.

I just created that page and haven't added a link to it in the menus yet.

Looks good! Could maybe add Lightning Paw to electric effects?

Done, thanks! I think I missed that one because most spirit beasts have specially designed appearances, while that one is just a regular fox skin with an aura on it.

We still need the anima gorged feaster and ephimereal runner added to the page, it’s finally great to have a page for specific looks like these

Very good job Wain, well done!
There is also Fangor, the rare bat in Deathknell, Tiristfall, who is ever so slightly see-through (and VERY hard to take a screenshot of because of it - in-game I can see through him fine but in screenshots he appears more solid)

Oh thanks! I wasn't aware this one was transparent! I'll check it out and add a separate look for it.

I found
my old post where I made this discovery back in 2013 with a good shot of his transparency and I'll see if I can get an up-to-date one later. He also already has
his own page. Hope this helps

Oh, stupidly I didn't notice there was already a special look for it in our database. That saved me a lot of work! It's added to that page now. Thanks again!

Great list Wain! I have an addition for you: the malfunctioning beast bot also has an electrical effect

Thanks! I completely forgot to create a separate look for that one.

I've now given the Malfunctioning Beast Bot its own special look, but I had to mock something up, so it's not perfect. I'll try to create a better one when I have time to go tame it and look at it more closely.

I might consider taming this one due to the electrical effect, but I always thought the old gorilla models were better despite me loving most of the new models a lot more than the old ones

This already looks pretty spot on Wain, great job! Don't think you need to make another one.

I was able to find the proper spell that causes the electrical effect for this look and take model shots of it, make it transparent, and paste it over the original gorilla image. But it's hard to place it right. Hopefully it's good enough.
