Moths, moths everywhere...

Post by Saasan » June 29th, 2015, 4:39 pm

I have a theory someone either has a moth fetish or lost a bet at Blizz because there seems to be a requirement for number of moths per patch. Also, I'm not *sure*, but I think the game is a little light on mice, roaches, snakes, and toads.

And yet there are still no ducks in WoW.

Ignore my bitter rant--I'm leveling flying type right now and I'm annoyed that I have to add more moths to the leveling, lol!

Agreed. What is up with all the moths? Now, if they were a different model of moth, like the queen model from tailoring in Mists, that'd be cool with me.

I'd love dearly to have a pet like the Defiled Earth. :D And a duckie, and a kodo baby, and one of those scorpion looking silithid critters like the bosses in the AQ raids. The mini-model of those is already in-game. They run around the beach in Talador. So many more possibilties than yet another moth. :|

I think we need more dragonkin. We've only gotten Lanticore Spawnling and Bronze Whelpling this xpack so far.

The Albino Chimera is a dragonkin, too, but three pets is not sufficient representation for a family. More dragons please!

Seems like early days of MoP, every new wild pet you saw was flying. Does seem like developers have a warm place in their hearts for them.

It's weird, but I think you must be right. Moths were already over-represented during MoP, then they released Timeless Isle adding 3 more. Thought they would give it a rest with Draenor but nope, yet more moths. :shock:

I love flying pets, I really do, especially the birds. And I was really happy to see some of the skins from the WoD PTR making an appearance in 6.2. But I agree it's a bit of an overkill when it feels like 50% of new pets in a patch are flying! I would've rather seen some of the moths and wasps as color variants or something.

I thought "oh, a fel sort of zone, they can do all sorts of cool things and put in various demonic humanoids and such". Nope. More moths. All my flying stones are long gone, meanwhile undead humanoid and dragonkin just keep piling up. It's weird they seem to want such a heavy bias towards new flying pets in this expansion. I guess it's maybe just easier to re-skin moths and spores than to have greater variety? Although if that were the case I'd expect fel mice to be a bigger thing. It is a bit disappointing.

Clearly someone left a light on somewhere. That's the only thing that can explain all those moths!

;)

And yes, I'm also out of flying stones now. :?

Does this make up for the current 'problem' that the characters CAN'T fly? ;->
