Hey thanks for your post and science
I’m really torn about whether or not to get Loque. I love the looks, but then I think about all the work of getting it and then the DPS isn’t that awesome after all. Of course, DPS is not all. I got my dream pet at lvl 60 (or as soon as it’s possible to tame them, I don’t remember when it becomes available), the pink and white devilsaur from Un’Goro. Since I started my hunter and saw someone walking around with one of those I wanted it so bad. And it was quite difficult to tame it at lvl 60-something, so I’m quite proud of that AND it happens to have great DPS too. So, I did get my pet because of passion, but at the same time I got the best dps pet in the game (which I found out later). So yeah…. now I don’t know… maybe I’ll get Loque one day… but I gotta say I grew very attached to my dino after lvling beside her for about 20 levels.

I know what you mean. The elitist Hunters on the WoW forums aren’t really open to ideas like, having a pet because you like it… omg!

To me a pet’s always been a companion, as opposed to just another weapon. Sure I want to have worthwhile pets, but I’ve never been one to jump on the latest “it pet” trend. I go with what I like for the most part. Yet, I do hope they give Spirit Beasts a bit more of an advantage over other pets, instead of making them a liability and the target of other players’ criticisms. At the very least they should be able to out dps any non-exotic without question, and be comparable to a Devilsaur.

Thanks for the compliment on the blog hunterD. Although I’m relatively new to the World of Wow Blogging and still getting a feel for things, I’m enjoying it immensely. I’m glad others such as yourself find something of value here.

Yes i agree its unfortunate. I’ve been on them about buffing the Spirit Beast in suggestion forum but only to get bashed by hunters without Loque in their stable.

Thanks for a good blog!

Well lets hope so cuz I still need Mr Krush. Especially with Gondria coming, this needs to be adressed by Blizzard. Yes, i do see what you mean with the damage…..very unfortunate indeed with how rare these beasts are

For the special attack it is, but being that Monstrous Bite buffs all of the Devilsaur’s damage, Spirit Strike falls way behind.

You can see Loque only did 177K physical damage compared to Krush’s 208K. This is because of the stacking Monstrous Bite buff.

Spirit Strike damage needs to be buffed, plain and simple.

I looked at your numbers and I see what you are saying about King’s bite over the spirit strike. My question to you is; If you take in account the spirit strike and the spirit strike dot, isnt Loque’s damage greater?
