If You're Gonna Add An Owl Glyph For The Spotting Eagle

Could you please add a robot glyph too for the more technological Hunters?

I gave up on my Mechagnome Hunter because you attached a stinky bird to her against her will :frowning:

They could add a glyph that uses the same model as the mechanical parrot and they do have mechanical axebeak models for more mechanically inclined hunters.

It would be neat to see more glyphs.

Am personally very excited about the owl, given that I miss the lil guy since they removed him from the lunar storm animation. But I agree that in general, I want to see more glyphs. They are a great way to achieve class fantasy without having to worry about balancing/meta talents/etc.

It is always so sad to think that there such huge potential for cool stuff via glyphs, but that potential is almost never tapped into.

There’s definitely enough bird models to cover just about everyone’s tastes. Mechanical, undead (both zombie and ghost), Ravens. Is there a fel- themed bird?

Options are a plus, so adding more would be great. :+1:

The spotting eagle and the wind rider/boar for BM were both such incredibly low effort changes. Nice to see them add at least a single option for the eagle, but it is still extremely low effort.

I’d rather they just replace them all with a generic spell fx at this point if they aren’t going to let us really customize them to fit our hunters. At least then it wouldn’t look completely awful.

Hey.

Yeah? Do this?

Currently ICly I have Guuah’s mechanical hatchling, Ticker:

be the thing that blasts the giant laser beam and the resulting shower that comes from it. It overheats it’s systems severely and has to cool down for exactly 30 seconds between blasts. :stuck_out_tongue:

I also have it be the ā€˜eagle’ for Guuah, so that’s how I’m playing that off.

I kind of paused playing my hunter because it’s low key annoying that Rexar’s pets keep turning up.

Go back go Gorgrond, guys. I’m sure he misses you.

There are these lil dudes.

Yeah but those guys are a little beefy for the role of spotting bird.

Well, there’s also the tBC two headed vulture but they ugly.

FWIW while I appreciate it being a glyph I really wish it just allowed you to use any bird pet (and I mean any, I spent like 6 hours in Legion tracking down Ban’thalos which as a spirit owl is BM-only, probably another six hours for the two special dragonhawks, I really wanted to go hard on a falconer theme. I even got sidetracked for hours trying to get one of the unique falcons during the night fae quest that sends you to Kul Tiras)

Wth don’t they just let you choose from your damn stable? Seems so much more preferable to me.

I don’t have any gdamn owls or eagles. I want my spotter Spider gdammit!

Spotter-Man, Spotter-Man, does whatever a spotter can :smiley:

Yeah my goblin hunter is sitting on the bench for the same reason. I don’t want some stupid bird flying in among all my goblin tech. If I could make it a spotting drone or flying bombling or anything else gobliny it would be great, but no. WoW is so elf-obsessed that hunters have to cosplay as them.

You still get a variety of mechanical pets. That battle was won.

You nasty demon puppet you.

Hunter is like one of 3-4 classes that get a heavy elven slant for a reason. Meanwhile there’s been one whole bow that wasn’t from the anniversary.

But I can’t replace the eagle with the robots.

My issue isn’t a lack of robots, my issue is the eagle.

I don’t want a smelly eagle throwing off my robot groove. A smelly owl isn’t any better.

So I want a Glyph to replace the eagle with a Mech bird or a drone or something else that isn’t biological.

Sorry but Blizzard only caters to humans and elves.
