Disappointing News for 5.2

Post by Notamonk » January 16th, 2013, 10:14 pm

Just reported that the Stunted Dire Horn pet that was supposed to be released for patch 5.2 has been delayed until 5.3; the good news is we are apparently getting a cool replacement/place holder pet in the mean time! :D

Makes me wonder if the two new direhorn pets that were found in the latest patch are also going to be pushed back.

Keep in mind Mumper stated the following on twitter...
"Stunted Direhorn is not 5.2 anymore, most likely 5.3 at this point. We have a cool replacement though!"
It's possible the other Direhorn pets may be the replacements he mentions.

True. But that seems odd to me.

Look at the various saber cubs or raptor hatchlings. All the same model, just with different skins. If one Direhorn isn't ready for 5.2, I can't see why the others would be unless the team working on the pets started with those first.

I don't expect we'll see it before March, at the VERY earliest.
