I keep seeing people talk about NPC Scan but I can’t find a place to download it. Anyone have a link for it?

Manage to tame her yesterday, just pass midnight.Easy tame, without freezing trap.Kicked me back one time, and break the process, next time was nice and smooth (I was too tired to remember to put the trap;). But the thing is for all the hunters out there, install NPC SCAN addon, constantly scans for rare spawns and when any appears it warns you with flashy message and loud sound so you don’t need to make ny macro, and it saves you all the time camping.Good luck to all the hunters, she’s a beauty and real trophy to have..

You know what must be done now.

You must tame King Ping.

Awesome. Ever since I saw that NPC on “talk like a pirate day” with the Hunter pet-sized green parrot, I’ve been hoping they’d add that model :D
My only sort of complaint is that Sholazar is like the time-killing Hunter capital of Azeroth even more now that ANOTHER unique tameable rare is there, and the other zones could use some love o.o (King Ping anyone?)

YIPPEE!! Always like a new rare challenge. Now I just need some to have one of my more quirky hunters tame it. An attack parrot, after all, isn’t just for anyone!!! (No, I don’t RP but as an old gamer I need a mental back story for my toons.)

@ Jessie

Specs (like my need for a toon back story above) are part of what makes this game fun. You choose, you play. While I understand the post that referred to what the game designers expect to be present in a raid, imo the true fun in gaming happens when your party isn’t “perfect” and you find a way to make it work!

As a side note: Maybe that’s why guilds are so messed up on so many servers as people are all seen as interchangeable and the synergy of a good group who works together starts to mean nothing.

Yeah, there is no reason to make Aotona as Exotic (Unless Blizz classifies her family apart from the Birds of Prey which is quite impossible ^o^) and would be unfair if that happens, I badly want to tame her as soon the patch arrives.

@ Jessie

Adam is right, there’s no reason to change to Survival if you don’t want to, although SV is far the most strongest DPSer of the talent trees, if you find a way to play as a BM and you feel comfortable then go ahead, no one can push you to respec, just have fun playing, it is just a game not an elitist club XD

Kristy: Non-exotic — just a regular Bird of Prey, so far as I can tell.

In the upcoming patch, is the Aotona an Exotic, Tameable pet?

Already can say if I do roll Ryai as MM or SV, seriously, after the patch goes live [unfortunately ptr has made me sorely aware of how poorly I've been dpsing as bm :/] for the second dual specc, I am getting Aotona, just tamed her on the PTR and have to say … it’s disturbing feeding a parrot meat.

She must be the Bloodsail Parrot’s cousin.

Someone on the PTR should check to see if the Warp stalkers in Arcatraz are tamable, speaking of neglected pet families
