The Patch!

Wow we are so excited!

  • All Ground Mounts may now swim without dismounting the rider. Flying Mounts still may NOT, and will dismount the rider upon entering water.

Awesometastic! We want to see our swimming raptor! We think this is a big plus to Blizz, HUGE!!

Okay, enough with the non important stuff, lets talk Hunters!

This patch is HUUUUUGE!!

We will not post all the changes, but here are the ones that seem worth mentioning:

  • Call Stabled Pet: This new ability lets the hunter remotely access the stable. 30-minute cooldown.

Now this we like! We have not done tests, and to be honest we are a bit scared, since BRK mentioned in his podcast that it is... BUGGED? oh noes! We don't want to loose MiniME!

  • Cunning, Ferocity and Tenacity pets now all have +5% damage, +5% armor and +5% health bonuses. This should make more pet families feel viable, while additional talents have been added to distinguish a pet’s abilities based on its specializations.

Pets getting buffed? Yes, yes, yes! Will this be the revival of the BM tree?

  • Pets now inherit more spell hit from the hunter. Pets with magic attacks should not require a player to stack additional hit compared to pets with physical attacks.

Pretty cool! We don't have our Spirit Beast yet, but we're getting there!

  • Viper Sting redesigned: Stings the target, draining 4% of mana over 8 seconds (up to a maximum of 8% of the caster's maximum mana), and energizing the hunter equal to 300% of the amount drained. Only one Sting per hunter can be active on any one target.

O.M.G! What does OOM stand for again?

Okay, we're tired, we need rest.

More to come!
