Your Favorite Mount and Pet Combo

Post by Milotha » February 19th, 2017, 10:53 am

I got my Spirit of Eche'ro today (spirit moose mount) and then immediately went to look for a pet to pair with it - Baby Elderhorn. I usually sport my White Polar Bear and Anodized RoboCub or the Dancing Bear and Darkshore Cub. The kinda matching mount and pet combos. Anyone else do this?

Yes! I don't have a favorite though. I try and match whenever I can, but I usually use /randompet so sometimes the pet that pops out just doesn't have a mount equivalent. ;)

[url=http://www.warcraftmounts.com/]WarcraftMounts[/url] has a neat feature for certain mount pages: recommended matching battle pets.

Examples: [url=http://www.warcraftmounts.com/mounts/redprotodrake.php]Red Proto-Drake page[/url] suggests [pet]Proto-Drake Whelp[/pet], and [url=http://www.warcraftmounts.com/mounts/swiftforeststrider.php]Swift Forest Strider page[/url] suggests [pet]Darkmoon Hatchling[/pet]

Pretty handy when looking for a mount/pet combo. :)

One of my favourites at the moment is a brains & brawn combo; Minion of Grumpus already has a matching Grumpling but for some reason I think he goes well with Baby Winston instead.

Another one is my hunter, who wears the brown Gronnstalkers transmog. It's not a proper match but I think she looks good on her Coalfist Gronnling, with Chimaeron and its matching Lanticore Spawnling mini-me. When I get around to it I will get the item to turn Hati into a Chimaeron too, for the full Beast Tamer look. :)

Thanks for the info. I had forgotten about /randompet. I was trying to avoid looking at Warcraft Mounts least the mount collecting bug hit me again :) Curse you head of mim

Yep. On my Dwarf hunter I ride the blue moose Eche'ro, along his little brother Bulvinkel as Hati,
spirit bear Arcturis as my hunter per, and a Dwarf just needs a rabbit: Ziggy Stardust (or the Ultratonk). Loving it.
Got a cool matching gun too! :P :P

My holy grail is the Spectral Gryphon, I feel very sad she's not obtainable anymore. :(
Or is she??

Unfortunately it was retired when they removed the Scroll of Resurrection program.

Or the astral cloud serpent mount would be cool too.

Thanks, yes it would be. I just hate the 1% drop, I'm not doing it. If it was a pet on the other hand.. ;)
All that blue is starting to hurt my eyes anyways, so I've switched back to my polar bears and gryphons.
Transforming into stardust is great fun what you can do!

Got the Arcanist's Manasaber and decided the Brightpaw went well with him. One of these days I will get that fox mount.

On my engineer themed dwarf hunter, Sky-Bo to go with his Sky Golem mount and teal mechanical scorpid pet.

For my frost death knight, Fragment of Desire with the Acherus Deathcharger.

I used to have a farmer's transmog with the magic rooster and pygmy cow combo. I would also sub in the turnip or carrot as a pet at times.

Sadlly I have dagger and off-hand so I don't use that transmog anymore.

Today I got Ratstallion. The giant sewer rat seemed the obvious choice.

My Gilnean Hunter had the wolf mount from Frostfire Ridge, a tamed wolf from Darkshire and either Li'l Bad Wolf or the Worg Pup. Wolfception!
