So, right now I think housing is pretty awful.

It's not so much the housing itself, more the things that happen around it.

Chopping wood, usually just one piece... from a whole tree? Really? And when you consider how much you need for just one item, yeah, that kind of thing pisses me off.

Left today / right yesterday 🥲

It's also the case that only one of the houses levels up with the tasks...so I would have to do everything twice. 🫠

The new green magma snail mount textures *almost* work on the non-mount model, but not quite. Gah!

The body & glows fit perfectly but the shell doesn't. The reason is the mount shell texture file also includes the saddle texture (separate 'images' but in same file)...

New manawurm texture datamined recently.

It seems to have been created specifically for a companion pet but the model is also used for wild (and often tameable) beasts so hopefully it'll also end up used that way.

Since we don't have the ottuk plushie, I'll have to repurpose Myrlin for that. 😅

WTF? Why isn't this available as a decoration? Where's my Ottuk plushie? D:

You don't have to fill the bar alone, right?! Now I'm wondering, what if you're in a neighborhood where nobody or hardly anyone actually does it? 🤔

Stupidly, I was aware of both these upcoming tames, but they completely slipped my mind when I was trying to think of anything that might be in the pre-patch.

In Olden Times we'd have a few new families to enjoy taming in the pre-patch, but the one family* we will be getting is Midnight-only.

With the prepatch now live (on NA realms right now, EU soon), Magmorax and Tor'go are now properly tameable! Magmorax respawns shortly after being tamed, so you can get multiple in one sitting.

I've set Magmorax's level to 75 but it's hard to tell what its max level might be, under that Boss mask.

I'm also curious how low this raid scales. I don't have any suitably-levelled hunters to check. Anyone with the right resources able to help me out? :)

There are 3 new mounts but only the stunning, purple Anu'shalla, Shadow's Guidance (600-mount* achievement reward) is available on week 1.

See our patch guide for more info, and have fun!

This is Kevin. He's a reactive dog getting some training to be more comfortable. His trainer brought him to a pet store for some socialization where they learned he is no longer reactive when given a giant stuffed dinosaur. 14/10 (TT: katieandtatesfostermates)

Hunter pets in the Hound family should have a pick locks ability.
This is Rufus. He cleverly escaped the shelter to run home after being picked up by animal control as a presumed stray. 14/10 a hound Houdini (IG: huntington_cw_animalshelter)

It sucks that this is still a thing. When a pet is designed to match a mount they should at least appear in the same game.
Smoldering Courage pet. Classic-only, for now? Unknown if/when it will be offered in the Blizz Store as a separate purchase. If it does make it into the shop, it might have a slightly different name (as we've seen with other Classic-only and their Retail-counterpart pets)

Oddly, this mount release hasn't been advertised yet, and the subscription page in the BattleNet Shop still shows the old offer.

I presume one or more of the older mounts will be removed from the subs package (if they haven't already been), but can't confirm that yet.

Celebrating the Lunar Year of the Fire Horse, SCORCHING VALOR is now appearing for players on recurring subs!

There's no need to claim it in your BNet Client - it should be added to your collection automatically.

If not, perhaps there's a roll-out period.

Scorching Valor | Warcraft Mounts
This mount is coming in Patch 11.2.7. Some cannot be held back or restrained. Scorching Valor will seek greatness and only serve those who can serve their pursuit.

I'm playing with the idea of ​​giving up drawing. I don't have anyone in my life who encourages me to continue, hardly anyone is interested. I mean, I primarily started drawing back then to escape reality. The same goes for writing. Both were my escape from a less than happy time at school.
