Breanni Says:

Who knew that Onyxia and Egbert had a thing going? What would Deathwing say? Obviously, his outrage over these googly-eyed great-grandchildren is what will cause him to erupt from the earth and cause the Cataclysm. So to keep your whelpling safe from Grandpa Deathwing, try concealing him in a massive flock of whelplings. And then if you're feeling frisky, taunt him by shouting, "Many whelps! Deal with it!"

It also takes some deep breaths like its mommy and makes little rings of smoke in the air every now and then:D

I'm happier than a kobold with a candle that this pet is on its way out. Onyxia has always been a favorite encounter of mine and re-releasing the dungeon for the new expansion was a wonderful bit of fan appreciation on Blizzard's part. This goes the extra mile, however, by giving every player a piece of that nostalgia that they can carry around with them.

Did I mention it deep breathes?! EPIC!

This pet is really neat. I'm glad it's Bind on Account like last years Baby Blizzard Bear, so I can send it to any future alts that I make. :)

Hmm, I wonder if I'll need to keep her separated from my Dark Whelpling, for fear of being overrun by a tiny dark brood of dragons?

Well...It Looks like Onyxia has been Having an affair with...a Bald eagle and a snake? It's um... "Cute" in its own way...Its what's inside that counts right? And this little guy shows that he Takes after his mother with his attempts at an infamous Deep Breathe!

They really need to make Onyxia's actual whelplings look like this! And making this fly along with mounts should be a top priority!

I don't care what anyone thinks, these little guys are cute!

A good macro for summoning him:

/script local t="CRITTER";for i=1,GetNumCompanions(t) do local _,n,_,_,s=GetCompanionInfo(t,i);if n=="Onyxian Whelpling" then if s then DismissCompanion(t,i) else CallCompanion(t,i);SendChatMessage("Many whelps! Handle it!","YELL") end end end

It'll yell "Many whelps! Handle it!" on summon, but not on dismissal. Enjoy!

With the pet also comes "WoW's 5th anniversary" achievement, but for some reason you don't get the visual/audio effects for it - it just shows up in your Feats of Strength tab.

Found out tonight that the emote the whelp does will trigger Deadly Boss Mods during Onyxia. Was quite an a musing shock to see the Deep Breath warning flash during phase one!

Warning! With Deadly Boss Mods installed and this pet out, the Onyxia encounter can be somewhat deceptive. As the whelping casts Breath, DBM picks this up as Onyxia herself doing it and will shout out a warning! This occurred today in a 10 man group, we all had our Whelps out during trash and it kept setting DBM off, which proved a bit confusing during the actual encounter.

Very very cute pet though imo :D

It's a whelping. It's still growing..ugly animals usually (not always) grow up to be magnificent. Hm, do we really want have a million or so whelpings growing up to be the next Onyxia?

I dont know about its cute or ugly.
Still its one of the best designed pets ingame, but only on second (lil' kt is the best designed pet ever!).
I just hate it because all players atm got it. it sucks!
Maybe 2-3 years out in the future it might be alot cooler.

Between the Proto Drake, Lil' KT and Ony Whelp, I don't know what to make as my favorite. I will say this. Setting up to take down Ony in 25 with everyone having their Whelps out was just too awesome. I will have to get a screen-shot. During loot, I bet 15 of the things blew their smoke rings at the same time. Was priceless.

You can trigger her breathing the ring of smoke by typing /breath and waiting a bit. It will come up "You tell Onyxian whelpling to take a deep breath." Then after a bit of time passes it will go, "Onyxian Whelpling takes in a deep breath." and boom! The cute ring of smoke comes out!

Isn't it kind of strange how this pet looks like Spyro?

A few patches ago, blizzard made several pets which have flying animations actually fly. I was expecting this pet to also fly, but it doesn't. Very disappointing.

Wouldn't it just be Deathwing's grandchildren instead of great-grandchildren?

The color on this matches well with the Magnificent Flying Carpet, and Tattered Dreadmist Robe. Makes a nice ensemble, too bad they didn't upgrade it to be one of the flying pets.

What I love about its colors is that it looks really cool when I'm in Shadowform. What's even more cool, is that if you have this little girlie before you get that mount that Ony drops, you can say she grew up and lets you ride her back! : D

Or his... whatever gender yours might be. lol

This onyxian whelpling is adorable in a very straange way. I love him, and I have trained my other whelps to treat him nicely, even if his eyes are a bit googly!
