That’s wonderful news for the fortunate Hunters who managed to tame this incredibly rare pet before the hotfix. I was skimming over Mania’s post from today which contains a summary of hunter changes and highlights from patch 3.1, when I saw this…
I also know that there’s been a host of animation changes (ghost wolves can run now!).
I had my wolf out about ten days ago on the PTR and it was still bugged at that time. I don’t know if this is something in the official notes or not, but I can verify that it has been fixed. I logged on to the PTR and filmed a quick video of me frolicking about the Argent Stand in Zul’Drak.
This is pleasantly surprising news for me, because I had asked a GM about it at one point, and he said there were no plans whatsoever to fix it since it was never intended to be tamable.
He is pretty damn cool, especially when under Bestial Wrath.
Taming him was definitely a fun adventure. I had a Shaman in our guild help me. It took probably 2 hours before I got a successful tame. I got him about two days prior to the hotfix, so I’d say I was pretty lucky.
Now that I just use wolves (they will be even better after patch 3.1) I wish I could have that amazing spirit-like wolf 🙂
