G'morning! Razor here!
Thought I'd chime in as I've had a pretty adventuresome day so far! It started last night really. I finally scrounged up enough coin to go ahead and purchase the dual spec ability for Razorwyn. After fumbling around with that for around an hour, I was off and running. My secondary spec is now Beast Mastery. This spec, while not optimal for raiding any longer (CRY) will always be my favorite spec. Yea, yea... call me a nubcake, whatever. It is by far the most enjoyable spec for me to play. I'm so happy I did it!
But that isn't the half of it! Since I specced BM (with the Beast Mastery talent point to allow exotics) I decided to just snoop around Sholazar Basin to see if I could corral Loque'Nahak the Spirit Beast. Prior to respeccing to Survival waaay back in the day, I must have hunted this beast for WEEKS with no luck.
Well- After flying around her usual haunts. I decided to head for Icecrown. While making my way through Sholazar to the mountain ranges, BAM!! I got a hit on my target macro! THERE SHE WAS!!!
Landing in front of her, I dropped a freezing trap at my feet and started the tame. She bolted directly for me and began her attack. **POOF** my freezing trap encased her in a nice handy block of ice while I finished off the tame. A quick feeding, a scratch on the neck and she was purring at my feet like a kitten.
SHE IS SO BEAUTIFUL!
Now comes the arduous task of leveling her to 80. Yea, I know Blizz made pet leveling easier but that doesn't change the fact that leveling pets is major suckage. I suppose I'll hang out in Icecrown and grind on 80 undeads until I get her leveled.
Naming a pet is one of those tasks that really drives me crazy. It reminds me of my old DnD days where I would literally spend DAYS trying to think up a really cool 'medieval' sounding name like Audrik or Lothar. After flying around and pondering, I got to looking at that really cool blue glow coming from her eyes, nose and mouth. She also breathes frosted breath so I decided to name her ICE! I must say, it really fits and she just looks COLD all the time!
Damn now I've got that stupid song in my head. "All right stop collaborate and listen, Ice is back with my brand new invention Something grabs a hold of me tightly Flow like a harpoon daily and nightly..."
Well, that is gonna drive me bonkers for the rest of the day! Anyway, think I'll get back to grinding. Want to get her in a dungeon or two to see how she fairs! Oh, did I mention she also has this really awesome arcane ability called Spirit Strike? It looks really bitchin' when it procs albeit not very effective.
See ya 'round the Meeting Stone!

That's pretty damn cool if I do say so myself!! Prettiest hunter pet in the game, hands down!! Love the name too, and thanks for getting the song stuck in MY head too!! ;)
