Currently, we cannot search for unique pets in the Pet Journal with either a built-in filter or using “unique” as a search term. Seeing as this search feature works for presumably every other pet property, it feels like an oversight that this isn’t a thing.
To clarify, “unique” as in pets/companions that you can have only 1 of, correct?
Have you tried the Rematch addon? It might have an option to filter unique, but I haven’t checked yet.
Alternatively, if there’s a big enough need/desire for a unique-filter, I can request that it be added to WarcraftPets’s “Filter Pets By…” page. Not ideal since you’d have to search outside of the game, but better than nothing.
I only mention the Rematch addon and WarcraftPets because we still don’t have breeds showing in-game, and have to resort to using addons for it. Makes me doubt that they’ll add another filter to the default Pet Journal if we can’t even get breeds
Rematch doesn’t have it as one of the regular filters, but you can script it easily:
-
Filter -> Scripts -> New Script
-
Give it a name and put this one line in the big textbox:
return petInfo.isUnique
- You can save it and use that as a regular filter now.
I badly want breed to be exposed in the in-game UI. Every patch and beta among the first things I type is to check if there’s any new returns in C_PetJournal.GetPetInfoByIndex. Still waiting.
Pet Journal Enhanced does, though, and you can save favorite filter combinations as named menu selections.
