    Anyone remember eyes of the beast?

    That spell that let you directly control your pet. Was fun to use my wolf to trick lowbies in to thinking I was an NPC mob, then having them attack me and pvp flag themselves. Why must blizzard remove all the fun spells

    Fun detected, fun nerfed.

    Because while it was fun for you it was very unfun for other people

    I remember using Eyes of the Beast for a specific boss pulls in Molten Core.

    Just the other night I was complaining about this being gone during the raid haha.. I had used my pet to fetch loot from a mob right next to the boss. I was then like man, I wish I could just run around as my pet again while waiting to pull the boss. I am surprised this ability was the one to be pruned, and not the eagle eye ability (which I have literally never used in any real purpose).
    The above post should never be taken seriously in any shape or form. Failure to do so might result in laughing matters.

    Eyes of the beast actually got removed after wrath, way before all the mass pruning nonsense

    Eyes of the Beast was amazing for pulling in MC. By far the best way to pull Baron Geddon into Garr's room, among other things. Paired with the wolf from AV that had insane run speed, you could do some pretty impressive pulls while the raid stayed in the few safe spots available prior to clearing bosses that stopped the crazy trash respawn timers.

    I remember seeing that video of someone solo tanking Marrowgar with their Eyes of the Beast gorilla pet.

    because it was virtually useless outside of pulling mC bosses.

    So? We have a glyph that shoots fireworks. It's okay for stuff to exist for fun.

    useful ability with fun skin effectively is not the same as useless ability that serves no gameplay purpose other than vanilla references and trolling new players.

    Useful ability? what? it's literally a glyph that adds a spell that shoots a firework. zero use.

    Then both should be removed.

    Make it an emote or something but I prefer my spellbooks clean... sadly it's already cluttered with nonsense.

    Flare is a useful ability, the glyph is the fun skin.

    Eyes of the beast has no gameplay element attached to it. It serves no purpose.

    Flare serves a purpose, the skin is a fun element attached to the useful ability.

    Flare is not Fireworks.

    Though, my apologies I was not clear, it -was- a minor glyph that changed into an item-learned ability when they removed the glyph tab. But it is literally a spell that you shoot a firework up from your weapon, no mechanical use at all.

    Not talking about Stellar Flare or the Anti-Grav. flare glyphs, those are cool and I love them.

    What? Flare reveals stealthed characters, therefore Mechanical use.

    Sorry, i see what you were talking about. Yes, Fireworks is a useless ability.

    Eyes of the beast was the very first victim of Ghostcrawlers pruning. It was the most ridiculous decision ever to get rid of it. It was NOT bloating any kind of rotation, it was just there to use for fun and there was NO reason to get rid of it. Still hold a grudge about its removal.
