    Default What ever happened with new necro pets?

    I seem to remember reading somewhere that the new pet aesthetics that released 2 patches ago for Clerics, Warriors and Rogues weren't the only ones on the menu, and the mage pet classes would get some love.

    As much fun as it is having my necro mage's tank pet running around with his sword pointing towards his face looking like he died from stupid, I'd love to see a new and more awesome look for him.

    Sooooo... what ever became of those plans?

    They are in the same place as Master DSM, Trapping, Plane touched wilds and the community camp out event


    Hopefully won't be waiting till SL but that is a pretty slim hope

    I think the reason they weren't released is because necro is being overhauled to the extent that the current pets may not exist at all in SL. So the decision was made to save the new skins for the new pets.

    o.O Could you be right? Oh, be right, an overhaul, and even a very change to practicality in Raiding would be so wonderful.

    Charlice!!

    Mages were supposed to be getting new pet models for elementalist and necromancer,just as the other classes had their pet models redone to make them more unique

    but they didn't get done

    Primalthirst is probably right, with the overhaul of the souls they prolly decided to wait till Storm Legion. I like the greater rock elemental but I wont be sad to see the water and air elementals or the necro pets get spiffy new models

    well that sort of stinks.

    I enjoy my Necro when I'm soloing. Highly survivable. I would greatly love to see new skins and animation and maybe a undead non-humanoid. That would be cool along with some new abilities to make it more usable in raids and dungeons.

    I'd rather have the old satyr... not the current one, I mean the 9 foot tall one from release.
