I saw a video from MrGM previewing the zone, Zaralek Caverns, here’s the beasts I was able to capture Looks like One headed core hounds are becoming our friends soon Looks like a Draconic burrowing worm, and a new primal cobra, there’s one farther in the background, looks like they have a vibrant flaming chest looks like we got another snail model, new family when

Found more on wowhead patch previews these look like a hybrid between the venthyr gravewing and the gorilla looking earth elementals This hydra boss looks awesome, time to wait a couple expansions to tame it

Ooooh I hope the flamey feline mount cats will be there! There are two that'd be great pets!

The concept art has me cautiously optimistic. I know concept =/= guaranteed, but we have a possible new;
- "moth", using what looks to be the fey darter physique (Honestly, this is the best idea for new moths instead of the old model rig)
- "rodent", looking like a big ol' rat with even bigger ears
- "sporebat", using a very clear sporebat model while looking absolutely primal. It's like a kite made of rock and magma.
- "crab" or "spider", being some kind of big rock tick.
- The snail and...fiend? shown above in the MrGM video
- A crystal porcupine

If that sporebat makes it in, I'm done. I won't use anything else this expansion. Sporebats deserve love, and this is the love I wanted to see. I don't care if it's a shale beast, spirit beast, or even if they go nonsensical and make it a hound; I want a flying lava kite. ESPECIALLY if there's a green skin, since I love green fire.

EDIT:

There's a new ray flying around in this screenshot, on the right side. You have to zoom in, but there's two of them flying.
EDIT 2: There's also one smack dab in the middle, slightly to the left. I'm blind for not noticing that one.

I am digging the new concept models, I looked deeper into the flying creatures, they look like a mix between a sporebat and the mantacorn that i wish were tameable, hopefully at least one creature added will be put in a lacking hunter pet family, that includes crocs, sporebats, gorillas, etc

Edit-PTR for 10.1 is releasing with hope to at least access the zone, if so I will post some screenshots of beasts

That’s quite a coincidence, I took screenshots as soon as I saw beasts when watching the MrGM video

More snails. Spiral shells and some adornments. Unlikely to be tameable unless wild ones exist, since these look like Drogbar pets. Slightly closer image of the lava snake from the front Potentially new skin colors for the flowery porcupines.

ooo i am loving the lava snakes and crystal snails! (crystal snail mount please!) the lava hydra looks kinda cool too.

I hope we get a new type of tamable subterranean lesser dragonkin. Pls blizz <3

We need lesser dragonkin with sharp fangs and claws

hah. did not even realize that the big picture of the snail has two other snail colors in the picture as well. they sure to blend in.

Look at all those snail colors and variants

Niiice!

I’m speechless, draconic sporebat, and a weird giraffe

More new moth models, they look primordial Check out the Wowhead article to see all variants, some creatures had a ton of cool new looks and so far I like all of them

I'm dying of laughter from that giraffe, what the hell

EDIT: I've calmed down from my laughing fit. God those "Long Legs" enemies are absolutely silly. The "Sporebat" being a ray model is a little disappointing, but I like how the fleshy ones look. I already know I want the green fire cobra, the red fleshy sporebat, and the white crystal snail. This patch is off to a great start.

There’s never been a single patch where I want more than one look on each model, the cobras having a normal and primalist look, same goes for the so called sporebats, they’d make more sense if they were rays, Long legged stag things with a entirely new model rig, and I’m wondering if the new flayers/gargoyles will be sapient humanoids or a wild creature as the zone screenshot shows, I hope those will be tameable as well, looks like I’m going to have to expand my stables

flayers are beasts also the long leg ones but I haven't found any tameable ones yet
