What new pets do you want to see?

76 Comments
I've written posts in the same vein as this before (like this Scattered Shots) and I try my best not to sound like a spoiled, entitled hunter. The reality is, we have a crapton of pets to choose from. There's not much reason to beg for more, but hey, Muffinus asked! The same designer responsible … Continue Reading ››

Final beta video: B-roll footage of hunter pets at 60fps!

8 Comments
If you didn't know, YouTube recently introduced support for 60fps videos. You obviously need to upload the video in 60fps for this to work, and YouTube also seems very picky with the encode settings, but once it works it's pretty cool! It only works in the Google Chrome browser (or IE11 if you enable … Continue Reading ››

Pet of the Week: Druids in Travel Form

17 Comments
Blizzard finally gave into our demands and made druids tameable. The catch is you can only tame them in their travel form. So if you were hoping for a kitty or bear druid, you're out of luck (for now). A druid in travel form is part of the Stag family once tamed and brings the versatility … Continue Reading ››

Hail Hydra! That seems to be the hunter mantra of the week. Everywhere I go, I see hunters sporting their newly tamed hydras. Arguably one of the coolest is Spirit of Atha, the ghost hydra. This isn't the first time I've tamed this elusive beast. I was one of those who tamed … Continue Reading ››

Pet of the Week: Saddled Clefthooves

3 Comments
I delayed in posting about these pets because I honestly thought there was a possibility they'd get nerfed (made untameable). After all, I've been disappointed before when I find a pet I love in beta, only for it to be made untameable. For a while, the only saddled clefthoof which was tameable was Giantbane and I … Continue Reading ››
