The Winterspring Cub was a snap, so I’m back again — this time with another pet new to WoW Patch 4.1 which takes a bit more work to get. That’s right, I’m talking about the Panther Cub. It’s a reward that’s about a dozen or so quests into a string that explores the rise of the Zandalari trolls.

We’ll zoom through the quests and focus on the end result more than the lore, since that’s what For the Hoard is all about. But definitely pay attention as you go through the lore, too — it will make your next entrance into Zul’Gurub and Zul’Aman all the sweeter!

I’ve been thoroughly enjoying the beautiful aquatic environments found in one of  World of Warcraft: Cataclysm’s new zone, Vashj’ir, and now I have a new mount added to my growing hoard that will guarantee I continue enjoying it (and any other water zones, for that matter currently only usable in Vashj’ir) even more. Blizzard was thoughtful enough to include a new underwater mount for this environment that is not only super cute, but also pretty easy to come by, and very fast to boot.

In this episode of For the Hoard, we’ll take a look at the Subdued Abyssal Seahorse, how to get her (I’ve deemed her to be female. Care to disagree?), and maybe even take her for a spin. Enjoy!

In this episode of For the Hoard, join me as I tear through some brand new World of Warcraft content in Eastern Plaguelands and show you how to get the hottest Somersaulting Worm pet around — Mr. Grubbs.

Straight from the Blizzard Pet Store, I take a quick look at the brand new Moonkin Hatchling and Lil’ Ragnaros Pets and add them to the For the Hoard archives. While I haven’t purchased either one (each $10), I found a couple of willing show-offs to help me cast the spotlight on these two uber-cute cuties. And we may even catch a glimpse of the new singing sweetie Sunflower pet… you’ll have to watch to find out!

So what do you think? Worth the price tag?
