They'll make life easier for n00bs like me - just choose a tree and then fill it with 31 points.
You do not hear, and so you cannot be redeemed.

In the name of their ancient pride and humiliation, they had made commitments with no possible outcome except bereavement.

He knew only that they had never striven to reject the boundaries of themselves.

i have no rare petses except for Toc who used to be a lvl 10 rare elite named Timber in Dun Morogh but is not really so rare anymore.
i just went and got me a warp stalker in netherstorm cause sorus said
they're good solo tankers. (and cause they're pretty)
i had, for a while, one of the Lost Torranche tallstriders from that floating

Is it possible to tame a higher level rare to have as a pet at level 10? I mean, if you have someone there healing you and whatnot? Is there a cap as far as how high you need to be to tame a higher level?

I wonder if I shouldn't/could travel to a higher level zone with a cool Rare wandering around and snag it to make for easier leveling.

Thoughts?

So it's possible, then? Probably just really hard?

Unless there was a signficant change very recently, you cannot tame a pet higher level than you.

Petopia is an excellent resource that gives information (and pics!) for ALL the different pets. Highly recommend it to all hunters.

It was actually TWO *(^&%^$ weeks flying around (*^&%&^% Sholazar, but who's counting?

I think the one of Irv and Sorus in Dalaran must have been on the hard drive that crashed. :(

Dunno, since there isn't an actual 'achievement' for such things... it was close enough to the launch of Wrath that it's pretty likely, but no way of really knowing.

I also have two lynxes (my favorite cat model), and the ghost saber that was my leveling pet. And that's a full stable. I had to give up my Cursed Offspring of Har'koa in order to tame Loque, and I really hate abandoning pets. Actually did a whole story about returning her to Har'koa's kin, but was only able to salvage a couple of the images after my hard drive crashed.

Image

My horde hunter only has one pet, since she will be the one picking up anything awesome they come out with in Cata (foxes!) - unless Blizz decides to give us more stable slots.

And yes, I am totally avoiding answering what I named my alt. Something unpronounceable that would have spawned many awful nicknames. :oops:

Oh, a change is coming, feel these doors now closing
Is there no world for tomorrow, if we wait for today?

Did you miss the previews? Hunters get a large "storage" stable with five "active" slots, any of which can be summoned remotely.

Is that official? The only place I'm seeing it is right next to posts about the changes to ammo that they've been talking about for years.

So much info to wade through, but most only have new talents and the 'focus' change listed for hunters.

Grats, Raest!

And Ky, I didn't notice anything.

Apologies if I've been snarky lately... err, snarkier... under a lot of stress right now - has nothing to do with the game or anyone in it, but I've been short-tempered, and I know some folks have noticed.
