Comments on: Petopia: Retired Pets http://www.maniasarcania.com/2008/04/16/petopia-retired-pets/ Flotsam from too many sites Wed, 08 Feb 2012 13:53:10 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Syrelil-Sentinels http://www.maniasarcania.com/2008/04/16/petopia-retired-pets/comment-page-1/#comment-18523 Syrelil-Sentinels Sun, 20 Apr 2008 23:42:53 +0000 http://www.maniasarcania.com/?p=555#comment-18523 Oh cool, a retired pets page. I wonder why they didn't just move Hawkbane? He was a cool white tiger, totally miss seeing him in that cave. I guess Blizzard is just too lazy, eh? That is so Blizz! I still think they should put the Amani bear back in as tameable. I'd solo tame the little bugger myself. xP And I have myself a ghost wolf! One of two Horde on my server with it! Love the site, always have. xD Oh cool, a retired pets page. I wonder why they didn’t just move Hawkbane? He was a cool white tiger, totally miss seeing him in that cave.

I couldn't find the patch notes when I went looking, but I was looking too late -- the dates on the posts and comments I was able to find about the event were all much later, apparently. Anyway, I've got it fixed now. Thanks for tracking that down! Thanks, Korth.

The Sandfury Guardians were removed in patch 1.3, not 1.7. http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/patchnotes/patch-05-07-04.html Just a quick correction.

They removed the Serpent as a tamable pet sometime before that. I didn't even do WC before they changed the serpents. In fact, I was so surprised to see someone with one on Alleria server one day that I had to ask how he got it. The other thing is, until recently, I've avoided Hunters as a class. Not because they're over populated, but because I really like a lot of the different pets. In total, I love eleven of the twenty-three out there. I also hate stabling pets so that I can level up another pet. So, right now, I have ten hunters. I may make an eleventh. The other reason was because I kept getting pushed to have certain pets that had the 'best stats' but I felt were ugly or that there were other issues with them. But, alas, the guild I was in then collapsed. I only found out about this recently. I left them almost six months ago. Now they're gone. On another note, I'm loving Onna's pet Dragonhawk Orihime. Onna's Marksman spec at lvl 20 and between the two, we're talking some epic damage. I worked up the math on it, two casts of Fire Breath do more damage than four or even five casts of Claw at the same level since FB gets such a boost from the hunter's ranged attack power. They're not great for tanking though. Palla,

I got confused about the serpent, and was thinking pre-nerf serpents over the poor sandfury. Feel free to beat me senseless. Sorry, me cooking and trying to type at the same time is a bad idea.

Unfortunately there was a glitch involved made poison spit a free to cast, no cooldown skill if activated manually, if I remember right. High level serpent hunters have an easy nab in the sixty eights around the cisterne in Shadowmoon. Any one wanting on close to their level otherwise'll have to head to an instance, at twenty level incriments. *Laughs* Okay, from ZF to Sunken Temple isn't that bad. Wish they'd put in more tameable things, instead of taking out existing ones. Oh well, here's to hoping they find a way to put at least the ghost wolf back in.

If the Amani Bear and Torgos are listed, then the poor Sandfury Guardian will all its history should be also. :> Thanks for the suggestion. I’ve added the Sandfury Guardian to the Retired Pets page.
