Hello, i was on the beta forums when i noticed someone mentioned the new raptors on the lost isles.

Is it possible to get to the Lost Isles as another race other than Goblin. I have a worgen hunter that I'm leveling that would love to get his hands on one of the new raptor models or monkeys.

Are they there now? I'd love to see them if anyone have a picture :)

They are the same as the outlands raptors, so unless you need one at a low-level, there's no need.

We are incredibly unlikely to see the cool raptors at this point. It seems all the other models, exceot for certain heavy lore figures, have already been implemented.

We could always hope that the Outland raptors on the Lost Isles are just placeholders for that new type. :)

I hope so!! :D

Right now i can't really decide on what now goblin to make, i'm torn between a hunter, rogue or warlock and for me the best part about being a hunter is the pets, however i haven't really seen any new cataclysm pets i like :( The monkeys and foxes are cute but they aren't really my favorite.

There are Outland raptors in The Barrens as well, although they only come in orange.

A lot of the concept art and creatures made for Wrath of the Lich either got drastically redone or scrapped. My guess is that many of the new creatures they unveiled for Cataclysm, like spiny raptors, will also end up in the dustbin. Quite a shame...

yeah, considering their reuse of armour models to the point where you can't tell classes apart, I don't expect them to come up with much in the way of new models. Art departments always get cut first.

Aww, I was really hoping to see them! They'd be kind of cool to have... :(

the next beta build will be adding a lot, so maybe, just maybe, they will add them. If they are in the works even, it would probably be our last chance to have them implemented.
