I noticed that we were still unsure about The Beast's status. The new skill they have made me finally go around and check him out, see if he was still up for taming!

Aaaaaand the verdict is....

....

Yay, still tameable!

But does he keep his special stuff...?

Yes indeed! Even through dismissing/mounting/stabling.

I know what Core Hound I'm using for the Ancient Hysteria now!

Just need a way to avoid the fear and knockback now, and a bit more haste, and we're good to go.

Yes, I didn't go in with any special gear/potions or anything; my gear gave me enough haste to coax the cast down to 8ish seconds and has no problems.

10 Second tame times now! I may just be able to get Krush then easier.

Congratulations.

Did he hit like a ton of bricks still?

Not really, but then again I'm rocking something like 58,000 health at the moment, so...

The new Tame Beast also doesn't reduce our armor to 0 anymore, so getting hit won't be THAT bad. :)

Umm, it's the same cd as a shaman's BL. Can't really have ours be special without breaking game balance.

For those that hate the long CD, can't you just keep him in the stable and take him out every 10 min?

I would just like to point out it's a hunter pet WITH BLOODLUST! It's like a shark with fricken lazers! Only better. BLOODLUST NOM NOM NOM! :headbang:

Besides, if you really want, pop ancient hysteria, dismiss core hound, call Favourite Pet, pew pew pew!

Had to upload this...
Red orb's :P (during Ancient Hysteria)

Also - for those who were worried - Ancient Hysteria is not an auto-cast ability. So no worries about that going off at all the wrong times ^.^

It's just the color that's associated with the ability. I just noticed the other day that their horns glow white when they're channeling lick your wounds. :D Pretty cool.
