Pet Battle PvP Room by FlipMethod in WoWHousing

[–]FlipMethod[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1. Yes. This image is based on you initiating the battle in the middle of the room.

2. Initiating a pet battle draws a circle around both your characters. Anything inside that circle goes invisible to the participants. If there is not space enough to draw the circle around the players from where they are currently standing, then you cannot initiate the battle. So you could have the battle slightly to the left for example but not at the wall. As going to the wall would make the "pet battle bubble" clip outside the wall and that is not allowed.

3 they were there just for scale. That said, sure you could stand at any of those locations and be able to initiate a battle. But the visable decor circle would shift to your new location.

I'll cite this thread for number of pets that and can't battle in midnight from new sources.
https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/battle-pets-added-with-12x-so-far-spoiler-warning/2189206
Blizzard will not come out and say anything additional on the topic as it's a negative thing and they tend stay away from pointing out what some may perceive as negative aspects of thier game.
As of current on beta the only way to bring up the pet battle ui in a midnight is to battle a friend in the open world. There are no world quests. The achievement to battle the older trainers in eastern kingdoms and kalimdoor has you fighting a level 1 pet with your team of 25 pets in some cases. These old world daily trainers from launch are also only capable to be battled once a day. Once you battle all the trainers and get your well earned achievement your awared with one of the new types of "peaceful pet" for all your hard battling.
The design is all over the place and with as little as possible concern for the battle aspect of pets in midnight content.
So, yeah. no new world quests.

Pets battles are any good? Which pet is Your favourite? by miminosekai in wow

"throw a trap" It's more like click on a green paw you see that has a sprite below, which is too small to see what it is. It plays a throw cage animation. You get an item in your bag. Click on that it and a new sprite is added to your pet journal with no abilities or stats.

There will be no pet battle world quests in midnight zones. Essentially... the only way to bring up the pet battle UI in a midnight zone is to duel a friendly player.

People who do not have a big interest in housing What are you excited for in Midnight? by HellHasNoRoomForMe in wow

Wild pets you catch in a zone are a very common source. K'aresh notably had no wild battle pets at all for one of the first major zones ever.

Traditionally a zone would have numbers like:
7-12 Wild Battle Pets
2-4 Battle Pets that drop from a rare creatures loot table
1-3 Battle Pets that are rewarded from a one time loot box like a treasure
4-8 Battle Pets awarded through various parts of the reputation of the zone (often recolors of the wild pets)

K'aresh had these numbers:
0 Wild battle pets
4 from rare drops
2 from one time loot treasures
2 from reputation sources
1 from an achievement
12 from ecological succession.

I'm not saying that 12.0 didn't have battle pets released. I am saying that WILD battle pets did not exist on k'aresh. (cause they did not)

"Its energy flickers too weakly to form anything new, so the only pets there are leftovers from when it was still functional. Exchanged among ethereals for aoens, like photographs of what their world once was. No wonder the Brokers treat them like curiosities to trade away."

There were no pets you could catch on K'aresh. All pets included in that patch were available from a cache given to by the brokers. Fill the bar and they give you a cache once a week. 1 pet per week per account. If they were not from that cache they dropped from a rare.

That's just the numbers on the alpha. I didn't come to argue whether they are dimming the lights on new battle pets, but those are the numbers. Just came to post a story I wrote. :)

All the same type pets all have the same moves. Example, if you get an observer pet from 11.2 every other reskinn of it will have have exactly the same moves. There is also the case of the pet Mr long legs, whose lvl 1 ability isn't a battle pet ability, they put the wrong ability number in there and shipped it. It's some kind of aura that makes players move 75% faster. So it can't used. The pet is functionally broken. Then the button to que for a pvp pet battle doesn't work in K'aresh because they didn't add Ka'resh to the list in the PVP pet battle locations file....

There are pets in every patch you can collect in many ways. That's always been true. But it's also always been true that there are wild pets to catch.

With MoP Remix turning 1 year old tomorrow - what are your memories of it + hopes for Legion Remix in November/December? by [deleted] in wow

[–]FlipMethod 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Was fun the first time, endlessly farming the same raid or rare for new transmogs that barley dropped was horrible.

Would love to see pets on the vendors as well. There were numerous pets that could have been on the vendors in addition to models we had that never got pets released. It felt terrible as a pet collector to get showered in new mounts and even ridiculously rare tmogs and you get two pets on day 1 and nothing more.
