Re: 5.3 changes: the good, the bad and the ugly

Perhaps I'm just being slow right now but... why does it matter than stones will now be BoA? What benefit do we actually gain from this? Cause I'm not seeing it. If you're like me and have a different alt parked at each of the daily trainers throughout the world for quick access to pet xp then you ...

Re: Bug-List for 5.2 & Pet Battles

I just gave up trying to use those two to level a lowbie and only kill them for the possibility of a pet stone. Much more relaxing that way, just bring 3 strong pets. Not trivial but much better.

Re: The New Op Combo

Should also work with a Zandalari Anklerender (they still have Black Claw, just at 3 instead of 2) if that's the one you happen to have in P/P instead. Looking into this I discovered that the pet breed ID mod isn't working for the new raptors, it shows them as coming in only 1 breed each, the one yo...

Re: PetBattle Teams not swapping pet teams

Yeah, this is pretty aggravating. It's also a reminder of how terrible the default UI is for battles -- manually rearranging teams and manually re-picking abilities every time is a huge hassle and probably contributes to fewer people doing pet battles. You're "meant" to tailor your team to...

Re: Learn to PVP to improve your strategy

Obviously you are not very experienced as your facts you are stating are 100% incorrect. Make sure you know the facts before stating them in a public forum where others may believe what you say has truth to it. Don't be a condescending jerk. Before accusing someone of being wrong, consider that per...

Re: Gilnean Raven Breed Variety Removed (PTR)

Now they just need to extend this to all store-bought and crafted pets. Hunting wild pets looking for the desired breed is fine, but "farming" a vendor hoping to get lucky or having to repeatedly craft something is silly.

Re: Elite battle pet recap for 5.2

It's frustrating to see so little variety in the Pet Families that the elite pets use. I'm sick of stomping critters and beasts and aquatics. How about some humanoids and mechanicals and undead?

Re: Learn to PVP to improve your strategy

I'd encourage you to try paragraphs and spell-checking. It makes posts much easier to read. Another problem with PvP pet battles is having your team locked. I'd love to be able to hunt wild pets for rares or leveling XP while waiting around for a PvP battle to start but I can't. I have to pick a goo...

Re: Storm Peaks: 3+ hrs and not one Battle Pet sighted!

This is the only way to get something like this. Check a few times a day, just a few minutes each time. You will inevitably get the pet and without any frustration.

Re: Porcupette Blues

They weren't very expensive on my server so I just gave up and bought one.

Got one out of a bag a few days later. No joke.

Re: Dropping quality?

When you first load a pet battle it can show the color and stats from the last pet you battled before switching over to what the new pet actually is. You're not losing out, it's just taking a moment to show you the real information.

Re: Emerald Proto-Whelp Domination

I guess it's strong but it kills SO DARN SLOW. Feels like it takes forever to beat trainer pets because of all the rounds spent healing instead of attacking and the low damage attack. I'd rather go with a less powerful pet and a much faster fight (flayer youngling and lil' deathwing being my choices...

Re: Simply THE BEST server to pet collect

Thank you, thank you, thank you! This totally worked. Made a DK on TVC and parked him in Felwood a few days ago. Checked for a couple minutes a few times a day. Just found a Minfernal, and it was even the breed I wanted (P/P). Only saw 2 other people in all the times I checked -- I see more than tha...

Re: 2 Mr.Bigglesworth ??

I've read that there's a bug which causes a new Mr. B to spawn in your pet journal every time you log in (or maybe it's every day). It stops at 3 because that's the maximum you can have. That was exactly my experience when I earned the achievement. Got another Mr. B the next two times I logged in. ...

Yeah, last night was the first time I took advantage of it and it was pretty boring. You're right, plain old wild battling (or rotating through trainers) is plenty fast.

Re: Leveling using Darkmoon Faire Trainer

They seem to have fixed this with today's restart. Now I'm forced into the quest completion dialog after beating him once, I can't choose another battle.

Oh well.

Re: Leveling Tips & Locations

If you have any alts that can survive the runs, just park them in front of the various trainers, especially Winterspring and Karazhan. Those two are especially good for getting level 1 pets started since they hit so weakly and/or frequently use non-attack moves. I level pets on the trainers all the ...

Re: I have a Flawless Humanoid Stone

Flayer Younglings are superb and also a huge pain to camp so while you *could* catch a rare one of the right breed (I prefer breed 4 aka all power) it's far less aggravation (though can still take a while) to just get the breed you want and then stone it.

Pet battle XP sometimes doesn't display but you still get it

Anyone else notice this one? Usually when I win a pet battle the experience award and any leveling up is shown in my chat window. Occasionally it doesn't show up at all, but my pets still get experience and might level up, but I only see it by opening the pet window. Obviously, this isn't a huge dea...

Re: Trainers are either rigged or pvpers suck. Need replacem

You're not meant to beat the harder trainers with a fixed team. You have to match the strengths of your pets to the weaknesses of the trainer's pets. Some pets are strong enough you can use them on anything but mostly you'll want to match carefully. Also, PvP is against people using the exact same a...
