Pet of the Week: Teroclaws

4 Comments
Teroclaws are a new type of hunter pet found in Talador and I believe it's the first type of hunter pet that has both flying and grounded variants. They have been added to the Carrion Bird family, though many of us were hoping the grounded ones would have made it into the Raptor family. These are some … Continue Reading ››

WoD Beta 18927: Set Bonuses, Teroclaws, and the big taming pass

13 Comments
The most recent beta build is light on the class changes, but heavy on the pet changes! Ever since alpha/beta started, there have been a large number of pets that should have been tameable but were not. Most of those, but not all, have been fixed this build! Tier 17 Set Bonus Adjustments

Pet of the Week: Toucans! (aka Axebeaks)

4 Comments
Don't ask me how the physics work here or how those tiny wings can support such a front-heavy bodyweight which is apparently 90% beak, 10% feathers. Let's just hope your group or raid needs a versatility buff at some point so you have more excuses to use these adorable freaks of nature. Toucans (officially called Axebeaks, … Continue Reading ››

How to tame Gara the Spirit Beast

404 Comments
A couple of nights ago, a bunch of hunters banded together on Twitter and the Petopia forums to try to solve the Gara mystery on the beta. Those I recognized from the forums or Twitter were right beside me in game trying to figure out the same problems, coming up with … Continue Reading ››

Pet of the Week: Talador Ridge Prowlers

9 Comments
This week's pet of the week is a bit late because my big video preview on the new pet families was posted in its place. Now we'll get back to looking at individual hunter pets found in Draenor. Even though you can't tame these yet, you'll be able to look back on previous pets of … Continue Reading ››

New hunter pet families in Warlords of Draenor

19 Comments
Warlords of Draenor is introducing five new hunter pet families, bringing the grand total to 48 different families. It's kind of disturbing to think that we barely have enough stable slots to house one pet from each family. Many families will remain unrepresented in my stables unfortunately (WTB more stable slots), but these five new families will … Continue Reading ››

Pet of the Week: Savage Warwolf

9 Comments
Just when I thought my stable was safe... It looks like we finally have a successor to the Shattered Hand Warhound from Outland. The Savage Warwolf is a level 98 wolf pet found in Nagrand (Draenor). It runs around Telaar with the orcs that use these beasts for their mounts. I've never … Continue Reading ››

WoD Beta 18663: Clefthooves, Stags, and more new pets

24 Comments
The highlight of this beta patch was a serious amount of new tameable hunter pets. We have two new pet families and a bunch of new pet skins to discover. Let's get the non-pet stuff out of the way first because there's not much of it in this build:

Gara, the loyal Spirit Wolf: Hints at a new tame?

12 Comments
Hunter @Miacoda discovered this sad and lonely spirit wolf, Gara, apparently keeping vigil at its master's grave in Shadowmoon Valley for Elune knows how long. The interesting thing about Gara is that you can only interact with her if you are in beast mastery spec. Nothing happens yet, but … Continue Reading ››

Pet of the Week: Draenor Raptors

11 Comments
I'm looking forward to using raptor pets more often in Warlords of Draenor. Not just because of these cool new models/skins, but because raptors now bring a crit buff, Strength of the Pack, which makes them useful in more situations. The best way to describe these new raptors is just that they're classic WoW … Continue Reading ››
