Seriously, they've changed the looks of rare spawns for no reason. And often it's nto an improvement.

Any pics of before and after? I can see where this would piss off hunters because a lot of them are collectors.

Why do they keep messing with hunters .... period.

The hunters job is DPS .. so .. every hunter tries to max DPS. You spec and gem, work out your shot rotation, reforge untill you get competitive in dungeons to where you are at least up there with the other DPS'ers.

I've dont that throught BM, when it was, king .. then SV ... when it was king .. and MM ... etc .. everytime my character gets competivite and I'm comfortable with it ... bam .. it gets nerfed or changed so I have to figure it out all over again ... and it cost gold. Blize out to at least send you 2-3k gold just so you can redo your character every time the screw it over.

Personally I think the main issue is PvE and PvP. PvE is player vs computer where PvP .. well ... you know. A set of stats or skills to play a computer opponent will never be the same as a set of stats or skills needed to play another person. They need to quit trying. All it does is f'up the game. Make seperate servers for both and never the twain shall meet. A PvP world should have all its rewards and quests related exclusivly to PvP with one MoB to worry about. A PvE world shouldnt have anything related to PvP in it. Maybe then balanced characters and classes could be made that are not always being dickered with.

My biggest pet peeve is the change in Rak'shiri. He's not glowy blue anymore. And Duskstalker? A snow leopard?! Come on!! He's in Teldrassil! And making Mother Fang intot he orange spider was jsut...dumb. We already have a rare spawn named with that look.

Sheer laziness!

This is part of the Cata rob Peter to pay Paul development were they needed to add more wild life but instead of adding new they just used existing, reskined them, altered their level and specs as needed and added them in to the new areas.

This is why there are only a few unique skined tamables left in the game aside from spirit beasts.
