If you start with a Unborn Val'kry(2 abilities so you pet swap and leave a bomb) and have this pet come in second it has a excellent back up set of moves. Not only can you increase the damage on the main pet by 25% for 3 rounds... but you can also increase your crit chance by 50% or do Flock to decimate the enemy pet. If it is Undead I would recomment the Gu'chi swarmling for the same set of abilities. @Vek Primal Rage is currently the most worthless ability in game math wise. Crit is not.

Very well themed comparing it to the boss that drops it. It is also a bit speedy without sacrificing too much power, sadly still hits like wet noodles. You will need to either use Acidic Goo or Flock to make any real damage with Peck/Slicing Wind. Caw(50% crit chance for 2 rounds/4 round cooldown), right now, is the crappiest ability in the game, should be buffed to at least Adrenal Glands status. It's speed will make it slightly useful against slower birds. Still feels weak though.

Why do so many of these new pets say their Base Quality is Poor? I'm using the site, trying to figure out which pets start out as rare and which start out as uncommon (so I can collect stones) and I'm very confused.

To the question about what to combine this pet with...well, I'm still working on that at the moment, lol.  I would, however, eventually like to try it out with my Mr. Wiggles that I'll be leveling to 25.  Uncanny Luck + Caw = I don't care what pet is across from me, it's going down!  My ability bar looks like - Peck | Wild Winds | Caw.  I dunno what it is, but using Slicing Winds just isn't doing it for me.  He rarely hits more than one time with it. :(

Just dropped today in LFR for me! I'm so happy! I didn't realize the drop rate was so low. Note it didn't come out of a fail bag for me but was given -with- a fail bag, in case you're curious.

It supposedly has a 1% drop rate and has a chance to drop off any raid difficulty off of Ji-Kun. Its **adorable!!** Mine dropped today during LFR, and doesn't seem to be attached to normal loot.

Anyone else want this pet just to name it 'Kazooie'?  I guess that means I should name my Hyjal Cub 'Banjo' if I ever luck into this cutie!
