Breanni Says:

So this what the Spirit of Summer looks like… Funny — I always thought the spirit of summer looked like voluptuous lifeguards sitting oceanside with dark glasses and killer tans. Oh no, wait... I'm thinking of the Spirit of Baywatch! My bad...

Two stories, try to be short... on server in the first year this pet was very rare since not many did the dungeon quest. I used to stealth around with this pet on follow all the time, since it was so rare, noobs would run away from it fearing it will agro and kill them.

One time had someone ask me where I got it, told them it was like the westfall chicken... poke a Darn Wisp until it got angry. 15 minutes later on general chat "I keep poking and nothing happens." :P

There may have been an undocumented change in this pet. When I got my first one, it appeared to be just a swirly red light with some orbits. Pretty, but abstract. This year when I got it on my Ally, I zoomed in on it and saw a distinct face within the red center, which is not visible in the screenshot here.

Pet goes Great with Hallowed Wand - Wisp
(obtained via Hallow's End)

Also used to have only a red glow wherever you went, now, changes its tint, depending on location.

My Night Elf Hunter likes to use this guy to keep up her hygiene instead of wisps. You just never know where a wisp has been! At least she know where she keeps this guy ^.-

Using this pet while stealthed will not break the stealth spell.

With 3.3, the pet appears to have been given its origianal, full red coloration back.
It is no longer a red wisp with a blue glow, it is now completley red except for the small, swirling specs that float around it.

I got this pet with my Troll Mage, who started out the Midsummer Fire Festival at level 16. Thank whatever gods Trolls believe in that Mages learn blink fairly early on - I wouldn't have been able to *get* all the flowers necessary for this pet without it.

It was well worth it though, even trying to sneak through Ally areas with a little Troll noob. I had my Spirit of Summer following me around for a month straight afterwards.

The coloration of this pet APPEARS to be seasonal/temperature related. During summer it was red almost everwhere I took it. As it got closer to winter it is more or less regular blue wisp color everywhere.

When combined with the hallowed wand wisp transformation, its even better to have the pet leash to link you!

I got this pet during the first sumer festival via the dungeon quests. And yes there has definitely been a change to the pet, the main reason i loved this pet in fact. There used to be a tinkling wisp sound every time you clicked on the pet and it is gone now. Kinda makes the pet a little more generic :(
