10.2 Guardians of the Dream: Beasts Thread

[worgpower]

I'm so excited for the new Sprite Darters!!! They look so much better. I saw some in a blue color but they're all dead

That’s actually the coolest color I’ve seen, hopefully I’ll tame one at some point this patch, I noticed that the body texture is a bit flatter and the head is wider than the original and I think it’s a good thing considering fey dragons are almost harmless creatures, plz blizz more fey dragon colors

There's apparently a gold color version of the dreamsaber, but I have been in every nook and cranny of the new zone and I have yet to see one. Maybe it's from a rare? Here's hoping!

Found Envoy of Winter, a rare that uses the white stag appearance. It's a level 70 rare elite, so it is tameable right now, but there's two problems;
A) It has to be summoned through a small event
B) Said event is announced zonewide and appears on the map when active
I couldn't tame it since others showed up, so I don't know if it retains its name. From what's been posted here and on Wain's twitter, we have access to white stags without requiring the rare, so if you want the color, it's perfectly obtainable without relying on this rare.

On a separate note, I've been camping the area posted on the last page for over an hour and I've not once seen any footprints. Where does it actually path around? Like, what section of that screenshot?

Finally found her.
She flies high, circling Amirdrassil. Don't know the respawn timer, but I think it's more than one hour. Oh, and She is a Spirit Beast.

Nah'qi is such a nice addition. It's not a ghost, it's not a reused model, and it's eye catching with those striking shades of red and orange. It's especially nice that, for those with good raid guilds or deep pockets for now, will be able to get a matching mount for it as well. The two spirit beasts this time around are some of the best in a very long time.

I am currently at work so I can't grab any additional screenshots until later; in the last shot below the picture of the map it's that center-left path that has the stags in it. The direction I was facing would have Sul'raka pathing towards me.

I'll try to double check when I get home that I have the right spot but I was pretty sure, I think all I did after taming her was basically turn around. I don't think I left the general area right away.

If no one else manages to find her I'll try and grab better shots with better directions later in about~6 hours.

Doesn't keep the name :/ can be summoned again directly, perhaps only if it has been tamed
He is the only white deer I have seen, there are some in the database, but he is still unique because of his large antlers, which none of the other NPCs have D:

[WerebearGuy]

@Runethia: So I was in the right spot, good to know. If you could grab additional info, assuming more hasn't been found by then, that would be fantastic. I've always had patience issues when it came to these tracking rares (was never a fan of this concept), so any details that could make it easier to find when we get the patch on live would be awesome.
@Ariom: Well that's a bummer. Make sure to report it as a bug then if you haven't, since tameable rares should be keeping their names.

Unfortunately there's no tameable gold version currently on the PTR assets that have been released so far

[Aroim]

New color of the owl bear

[WerebearGuy]

Where'd that one come from? It's so... blue.

[Aroim]

Where'd that one come from? It's so... blue.

They can spawn in all colors, including this purple one
There are also white stags there, with smaller antlers (The stags can also spawn in other colors)

[WerebearGuy]

Well that's neat. I still prefer brown, but the goofy blue one is definitely growing on me.

Unrelated; THE RAPTOR CATS CAN DANCE

[Runethia]

Unfortunately I just barely missed her this time upon logging in, (tracks disappeared into a tree before I could find where the next footprint was) but at least now I'm confident I did have the right spot in the screengrab.

For anyone who still doesn't quite know where I was at, I'm going to subject you to my terrible MS paint skills. (Sorry.) First two screenshots are where you should start. Red dotted line is the path of the tracks. Last picture is the portrait of my failure because I did not want to climb a tree.

[Aroim]

I followed the tracks all the way here after I caught her myself, maybe she spawns there somewhere, unfortunately I lost track of her
I'll try to draw the path I was able to follow later

[DannyGreen]

I hope they add those mount beetles somewhere. They're so cool

[Kööna]

I logged on the PTR this morning and I noticed the tracks in front of the tree like in Runethia's last screenshot. =(
I'll try to keep an eye open to spot the tracks before and try to see which path it takes.

[Aroim]

i found a skunk xD

[Runethia]

That's it, that's GG for this patch. Fyrakk is never going to know what hit him.

[Talihawk]

I've had no internet the last two days, it's been torture, lol! So stoked by all the new beasts and tames and new hunter talents too. Yay. Finally can test things out on the ptr. Yay new stuff!
