Once again, our friend Boubouille over at MMO Champion has been a busy boy. With the surprise announcement that the PTRs were up for the testing of the
WoW Anniversary Patch (aka
patch 3.2.2), he's been
digging deep into the patch files and guess what he found?
Well the big news is aptly summed up in the image above. Yes, it's the
Onyxia mount (though not actually the
Broodmother herself). A picture really does say a thousand words, doesn't it? However that's not all he's found by datamining. There are yet more mounts, including a
Spectral Tiger cub! I suspect this little cub may well be from a future
TCG expansion. After all, where did this little guy's
parent come from? Ditto the rather awesome
Tuskarr kite.
On top of that there are some regular mounts in the form of a
Little White Stallion and yet another dino-centric mount, this time a
Little Ivory Raptor. Boubouille also found the
Onyxia Whelping, which is the pet everyone who logs in during November will recieve (think the
Blizzard Bear). Ain't it a cutie?
However the oddest thing he uncovered was a collection of
Mohawk themed spells. These relate to the now
memorable TV advert in which
Mr. T creates his own class, the infamous Night Elf Mohawk. From the spell descriptions, I can't help thinking this is not some hint towards a new class in the next expansion but, rather, will be some kind of NPC or quest-related summonable pet. Either way, it sounds awesome.
