Razzashi Hatchling to remain as an in-game drop in Cataclysm

Well, for those lamenting the low drop rate, Community Manager Lylirra brings some good news:
If you currently have the Razzashi Hatchling item in your inventory, you'll still be able to learn the pet spell at a later point in time. It's not like the pet is disappearing completely; it's just no longer dropping from its usual home in Zul'Gurub.
In fact, I can confirm that the Razzashi Hatchling, being a clever and resilient little reptile, has already found a new home, and will be migrating there shortly after the shattering. ;)

Note that the comment above applies only to the adorably collectible Razzashi pet and not the savagely awesome Razzashi mount. As far as we all know, the Swift Razzashi Raptor will still be going extinct with the impending Cataclysm.

Wow, i LOVE ZUL'GURUB! sob...sob...

I love it too... its so beautiful. I think we should get a new column giving us background, history, and other information on various raids and dungeons.
The first one shall be called "For Instance: Zul'Gurub". Come forth WoW Insider, bring "For Instance" into being! Give us plenty of screenshots.

It's still there it's just not a raid, so you can wander around solo more often now without worrying so much about dying.

@Souleros I like that idea - a lore-based column about instances, why not?

This is a slap in the face to lizards! Or something...

It's a slap in the face to anyone who's ever been slapped in the face!

My guild always seems to mispronounce this ability...

I think that this:

Is a pretty accurate description of what happened.

I think out of the 3 times I've been to ZG, its dropped twice... I gave both to my guildies (separate times) because I was more interested in rep and the chance for the mounts.
Maybe this time when it drops, I'll keep it.

Ah, so now I don't have to hold on to mine in hopes of the price going up.
ChrisV Nov 12th 2010 3:32AM

Pretty glad I haven't dropped any gold speculating on this market.
Dude Nov 11th 2010 8:43PM
I LOVE YOU Razzashi Hatchling!!!!!
I felt compelled to say that. It's just such good news. :D
AND THE HATCHLING IS SOOOOOO CUTE!!!

I can guarantee you someone will come in, and go "WHAT? I JUST SPENT (INSERT AMOUNT OF GOLD) FOR THIS, BECAUSE I THOUGHT IT WAS GOING AWAY! DAMN YOU, BLIZZARD! YOU NEED TO GIVE ME MY MONEY BACK!"
Teaching the lesson that whenever Blizzard says they are changing something, but may change it again later, wait.

Next week: Exalted with Zandalar possible by turning in one stack of frostweave cloth.
Two weeks from now: ZG mounts a reward for opening the mail they were sent in.

You shoulda put money on it being less than 5 posts after yours...

I'm just glad I don't have to go farming for them anymore. I didn't have a single one drop! I miss the old days when they were like a 1/100 drop rate. I farmed up a few back then, one for me, a couple to give as christmas presents to guildies..
That said, I also did drop some gold speculating on them, but I wouldn't dream of complaining about it! I'm glad this pet isn't going away- it's one of the cutest ones in there and now I can freely learn the ones I've purchased without worry. I'll make back the gold eventually.

You know there are 4 raptor pets that look exactly alike, except for color, right?
If someone were interested in cute only, they could go grab one of the others. Dart's nest, in Duskwallow Marsh, is an object on the ground lootable. Don't even require a raid, or killing a boss or NPC. Just have to get lucky that it's there.
