Regarding tameable Silithids (BM)

Hello, I have a humble ask.
In Wrath it says you can tame Silithids for Beast Mastery, I was excited to look at the flavour for the Exotic pets, but it looks like it is actually limited to only the ‘Sandreaver’ model.
The ‘Swarmer’ model, the more beetle-y one has lots of cool animations and clearly a lot of love to it for example, but you can only tame the mount looking one.
Please!! Could you make more Silithids tameable!

At least the swarmers! The stingers (which to be fair look more like wasps) are untameable also and the centipede ones from AQ are untameable as with many of the AQ variations.
Clearly there is more than one look to the Silithid!!
Please give us Beast Mastery Hunter players some love!

wrong forum

Lorewise the silithid are quite intelligent, apart from the sandreavers. If you were to attempt to tame them, you would end up becoming the pet, and they the master.

how is it the wrong forum?

ignore him,

It’s a unloved man child harassing people on public forums late at night.

but they’re not going to change a thing in classic! it’s what a blizzard said!

Except for maybe macros…
Boosting exp…
Looking for dungeon…
Resource scarcity…
Single layer…
No character boosts…
No store mounts…

But other than that 0 changes! so no tameable pets you want!

I don’t get it, Paladins get an extra seal in TBC or whatever that was, Warlocks had the male succubus added from retail for no reason. But Hunters don’t get any of the Silithid guys apart from one model. You’re absolutely right, there’s no reason why this change would be against “Classic” feel anyway even if it was, it’s just the models left out for some random reason.

Silithids are Exotic because the Beast Master was skilled enough to tame the untameable!! So why not other Silithids, the idea that sandreavers are the MOST STUPID silithids as their reason for taming seems equally stupid.
This is my favourite flavour of BM, but in Wrath it seems awfully limited. In any case I would gladly become a swarm mindpuppet to one of those Silithid swarmer beetles.

(In WoD the ‘sandreavers’ have the Kurinnaxx model so could we at least get that one then lol)

sounds like you are harassing me.

maybe nobody told u but this is the forum for wotlk classic, which is (somewhat) of a reconstruction of a game made back in 2008.

future suggestions for the pre-existing retail game where changes are continually made, belong in the following thread: https://eu.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/c/community/general/235

I made the suggestion here because I would like to see more tameable Silithid models in WOTLK Classic. I don’t play Retail WoW.
Other changes have been made to the game, although with other class alterations, I feel like this would be a nice change.

and i’d like to see my character in 264 ilvl gear but im going to have to wait my turn for ICC.

Great idea i would love to see some more Core Hound models like the one from sunwell:

I don’t understand why you are, as many other forum posters here, so commited to rivalling potentially fun changes for the game. This is not about gear, it is about available pet models.

i’m not rivalling anything. i really don’t care what changes are made to the game at this point, just trying to understand this obsession with making arbitrary changes to a game that already exist in other versions.

Exotic pets aren’t a whim, you go deep into the BM tree, that’s a lot of talent points, and then Blizzard introduced playable Silithids in Wrath, but took a couple of expansions later to add them in. I don’t think it’s unreasonable to suggest that on a review of Wrath, which is the case with Wrath Classic, that Blizzard might have added more than one playable Silithid model.
If you played Hunter you’d realise a lot of players care a lot about their pets.

Don’t waste time man, on this forum you will only across people saying “NO because NO” and that’s it. Posting here is useless, noone from blizzard reads this

i think its a waste of time that you can fix yourself with certain methods.
there are plenty of things blizzard could do for classic atm. the game isn’t even correctly replicating intended features and i dont think blizzard officially recognising whatever npc you’re talking about being tameable trumps fixing the endless amounts of bugs…

however i am not foolish enough to argue with somebody over what they should and shouldnt want so…

OP don’t waste your time responding to people such as ^.

They’re just typical forum dwellers who post for the sake of posting. Nothing constructive or positive, Just bait.

what are you doing then, mister 0 self awareness?

Yes, it seems the only people that Blizzard pay attention to these days are streamers. I wouldn’t know how to reach them if I tried. Worth posting nonetheless.

Also i was thinking abut special ability of this pet. It is completely useless… 4 Sec root with dot, I mean you could clearly use the web root for freezing arrow but instead it has a dot… Regular spider web is superior to Silithid web because it has no dot and you can CC off it.

So i would love to see a rework of this ability to web spray like Maexxna in NAXX has. So instead of 4 sec root with useless dot 4 sec Disorientation in a form of web cocoon. Exotic pets should have some unique flavour but most of them are just useless…

Mentioned Silithid is useless, Spirit Beast is useless, even wolf is out dpsing Devilsaur. The only good exotic pet is core hound
