PTR: New moth skin

[Wain]

Well, Blizzard still stalwartly refuses to copy any toons to the PTR for me, which is becoming infuriating. But it's been great to see how many new skins you guys who did get in have found, however. Awesome work

In frustration I've levelled a hunter to 10 just to report a small one that nobody had noticed yet. The Vale Moth on Azuremyst Isle is now the previously unavailable MothSkinGrey (on live it's the beige skin, which is available elsewhere).

Its body is a light grey-white, but the most distinctive feature (when compared to the white moth) is the lavender eyes. Screenshots of the tame:

First the lavender owl skin, now this? Oh, PTR, you spoil me so! <3 Wonderful find, Wain! I would have never checked there.

[TygerDarkstorm]

Very pretty.

[pengupuff]

I was hoping this would become tamable. I'd like to add a moth to my stables. :]

Thanks for the info!

[Kalliope]

Nice work, Wain! So cool that that one is in!

The PTR won't copy real Kalli over either still. But I did copy a premade for running around. Is that not working for you either?

[mpd_84]

oh this is going to be a fun run for all the lowbie horde hunters iv got (that havent already gotten that moth.) a note to other horde players.there are several level 90 elite guards blocking the only path to these currently and you cant fly over them...

[Kurasu]

Ah, good! I was starting to feel guilty for grabbing all the finds while you were out of it. Nice one! I love the lavender eyes on these.

Nope No premades, no live copies. I started trying to get some within hours of the PTR going up, so it's approaching 5 days now and nothing. Other people just put in requests and they appear. I don't get it.

Have you checked on the progress page? Do they even show up there as 'Pending'?

It says 5 were successful (and a large number subsequently were unsuccessful). All were live toons. I'm not sure if that progress list even handles premade copies. But none appear on the realm login screen. Just the lowbies I made.

Nice find! My Tauren Hunter has it since she was level 10 and currently still her main pet ). Can't wait for her moth to transform into that pretty skin )

I don't know if there's multiple PTR realms this go, but maybe make sure you have the correct realm picked when you're logged in to the PTR?

And oooooh! Thanks for the find, more moths is excellence! (Now if only we had more than three sporebats... poor sporebats.)

[Ellaran]

Sweet, and very pretty too.

Blizzard should make two rare-spawn moths, one with Mothra's colors and one with Battra's colors (hell, they already look similar to Battra). Put Mothra in a light-oriented zone and Battra in a dark-oriented zone.

[Kalliope]

That's really cruddy, Wain. :/

My guess is that our counters for copies from the last PTR (and possibly the beta) weren't reset before this build, and that's what's fouling things up.

That sucks Wain

Maybe they don't want you on the ptr exposing all the hunter goodies early

Regardless the moth is really pretty, nice find
