Patch 7.3 for Hunters: New pets, Netherlight Crucible, and more

Patch 7.3 is almost here so it's time to take a look at what's going on for Hunters. The answer is... not much. We've got some pretty cool new pets available to tame on Argus, but still no new stable slots to make room for them. I don't know about you, but I'm at the … Continue Reading ››

Patch 7.2 Hunter Pet Preview: Feathermanes and Falcosaurs

Patch 7.2 is adding some new Hunter pets to tame including a whole new family. Falcosaurs are being added to the Raptor family. Gryphons, hippogryphs, wyvern, owlcats, and wolfhawks are being added to the new Feathermane family. I know what you're thinking: How am I supposed to tame new pets when my stable is already full? … Continue Reading ››

New Hunter pet family teased at BlizzCon (Gryphons and winged beasts)

Right after BlizzCon, Jeremy "Muffinus" Feasel tweeted that there were hints "somewhere on the internet" about a new Hunter pet family revealed at BlizzCon. Many Hunters, including myself, looked for this hint but couldn't find anything. I was pretty sure I had watched all of the BlizzCon interviews and read most of the articles, but I was wrong. … Continue Reading ››

Patch 7.0 Hunter Info Dump: Pets, addons, stats, trinkets, and more

It's been nearly 13 months since the last major WoW patch. Can we never have that happen again, Blizzard? Please? Alright then... so what's there for a Hunter to do on patch day? Well, I can tell you what I'll be doing. First I'll login to every character to collect their transmogs, then vendor most of … Continue Reading ››

How to craft (and tame) your very own Iron Juggernaut

Well, this is a first. In Legion (well, technically patch 7.0) Hunters will be able to venture into Siege of Orgrimmar and gather parts to make their very own Iron Juggernaut pet -- in four different colors! To fully discover all the ins and outs of this taming challenge took many hours of searching around SoO, … Continue Reading ››

How to tame Friender the Mechano Wolf

I think it's safe to say that Friender the mechano wolf is the first legitimate taming challenge discovered in Legion. We have Treble and Rush, which are found via track hunting, but Friender is something completely new. Shout out to Kyfus who was the first Hunter to discover this one. When Blizzard first announced mechanical … Continue Reading ››

Track hunting for rare pets is returning in Legion

Do you remember rare pets from Mists of Pandaria such as Portent, Hexapos, and Savage? These pets required you to look for their tracks to hunt them down. We didn't get any new rares like this in Warlords, but it looks like they are returning for Legion! This time, instead of animal tracks … Continue Reading ››

What’s wrong with the Beast Mastery fantasy in Legion [Updated]

Alright, I know some of you don't give a crap about class fantasy. That's fine, but this post probably doesn't concern you. This post concerns the Hunters like me who camp rare pets for days on end and agonize over the naming of their pets. I'm not going to be talking about mechanics or numbers here, … Continue Reading ››

Legion Beta: New potential Hunter pets, the Mech family, and pet buff changes

More fun stuff is coming out of this weekend's initial datamining, this time related to pets. MMO-Champion has been posting a bunch of new models, and some of them look like they could become Hunter pets. Standard disclaimer: This is still super early in the beta process and literally everything could change.

Pet buffs removed?

It looks … Continue Reading ››
