Tamin a Fel Reaver would be the equivalent of when I was 60 pre-BC and wanted to tame a devilsaur in Un’goro. It would be virtually the the same thing.

First I would tame it.

then I would teach it DASH…

then I would send it right….at….you.

It’s the same effect as fear…..you run all over the place.

One of the biggest comments to the PTR-folks is, “Hunter’s need 100-slot food-bags to accomodate all the d@mn humanoids our Fel Reavers eat!”

Another solution was to give us a permanent hearth to Deadmines, but that seems less likely.

I got onto the PTR last night and I can tell you the Fel Reaver in PVP isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Okay in Arenas, but in BGs or world PVP that whole “earth shaking within a 500 yard radius” thing tends to give away your position. I’ve even seen people wake up from /AFK in AV to jog out of our way.

The other thing that’s really going to be a problem is it turns out Defias only stack in fives, and it can take seven or eight of them to bring the Fel Reaver to maximum happiness. From what I can tell, too, when it’s neutral or unhappy it’s more likely than other pets to run away, or to one-shot you and then go lay waste to the nearest capital city.

Anyone noticed Frenzy isn’t showing up as a pet buff on the portrait or on the timers? Or is it swallowed up by Ferocious Inspiration?

I know the pet is getting it, I see the speed change on their paperdoll info. But you can’t see it on timers and such.

And you wonder WHY they are letting paladins turn into death nights?..

To balance this new ability, Warlocks will be able to tame Lord Kazzak. Arena size is being increased to allow for these new abilities.

“stand there for 30 seconds”

WHAT? They’re increasing the tame time to 30 seconds??

ithrows, how many stacks of defilers did you need and how long did it take you to farm them up?

I’m yet to get enough healers together to get mine. Turns out one holy paladin can’t heal through 30s of that damage.

Thankfully I copied my hunter to the PvE server, I tried my warrior on the PvP server and it’s hard to get far without running into a hunter ganking people with a reaver.
