It wouldn’t be half as miserable if you didn’t have to click “abandon”. I mean – really – abandon?

After fighting for life, limb and levels with them you’re forced by Blizzard’s poor choice of words to cast your pet aside like something used and unwanted.

Most of us, I think, prefer to believe we’ve released them back into the wild – to a better life. But then I believe that Blizz knew what the word “abandon” would do to the average beast-master hunter and they left it in to torture us.

Anyway – great work Pike – I look forward to more.

@ Constrictor
My spirit beast is called Bastet! someone else that knows a little about egyptian mythology…
My first pet pleides was with me right up till wrath but I had to take her back to teldrassil and release her so that I could free up the stable space for my spirit beast as she was being left behind in the levelling process……/sniff

Great storytelling. I can’t wait to read the continuation. When she released Wash, it pulled at my heartstrings a little.

That was very nice ……innocent and a grown up choice to make
It is hard to let a pet go

I had to let Kazè go which was my Black oldworld raptor go
few months later , i missed him and had to find him again

my pet trio has got back together , Gèki ( White Lion ) , Baku ( Black Gorilla ) , and Kazè ( Black Raptor ) and now we are on the scout for 2 more to join my zoo
Spirit Beast , why do you deny me …..

p.s. – Some good BM news From blizzard
Beast Mastery is over-nerfed and could be buffed before Ulduar

“We talked about it a great deal today and agreed that we probably over-nerfed BM. Marks is in a good spot and Survival might be too high once we look at the changes we are making to all other classes.

Our plan is to buff BM before Ulduar, but I can’t give you a timetable more detailed than that, and things could change for any number of reasons. We are unlikely to touch Steady Shot for the reasons I have mentioned before. We are more likely to look at Kindred Spirits and Serpents Swiftness again.

Again, huge caveats: Predicting changes we are discussing making but haven’t made yet is fraught with peril. I only wanted to address this issue because it caused a lot of consternation in the community.

I don’t mind admitting when we make a mistake in the hope that it builds our credibility in the community. This was one. It won’t be the last.”

I’m in the same boat.

I wish I still had Toruk. But now I have no room left…
