PTR December 16 (Source)

Hello everyone! The PTR has been updated with the following addition:

CLASSES

• Warlock
  • Summon Succubus has been replaced with Summon Sayaad – Randomly summon your Incubus or Succubus. Warlocks may speak to the Warlock trainers in Stormwind or Orgrimmar to enact a pact with their Incubus or Succubus, ensuring that only they are summoned.

Huh, kinda anticlimactic

Was expecting a short questline

WHy would anyone want an Incubus?  Their own lore has it that Incubi are all chained up by the female Sayaad...

Cause some players would rather look at scantily clad guy than a girl, lore has nothing to do with it. Althought the incubus would look way better without the "I'm having a stroke" expression on his face.

Or it's a lip bite animation caught mid-frame.

That's a speculation as to why we haven't seen them yet. The only thing that's really been said is that they are not to be trusted.

Here we go again, but don't worry, i'll be as nice as i can

I'm playing WoW over 10 years and almost always maining Warlock. I'e seen cataclysm and WoTLK, WoD, Legion, BFA and now SL.

Over those years i saw many hunters with their new and amazing pets. Every expansion, even every patch new pets for hunters.

Meanwhile, let's take a look on a history

-Classic added 4 summons + guardians like infernal and Doomguard

-in TBC We got Fulguard

-WoTLK nothing (Might miss something here)

-Cataclysm nothing (Might miss something here)

-In Mists we got first update for our pets with a talent, so we could summon differen versions of pets

-Back in WoD i was able to have infernal or Duumguard and pernament pet

-Legion and some glyphs. But really, nothing big, some models were just from mists talent

-In BFA we got few funny spells for demo but still not as summons, either spells or cd's( like observer for affi or tyrant for demo)

And now in SL we're getting Incubus, so as you can see, we're happy because we finally got something new

Watched the animation again, nope, still looks like he's having a stroke, also he's a mouthbreather. They mixed an attractive body with a fugly face, that's just life.

Do you actually play a warlock? If you did you would know the Succubus is one of the most worthless pets we have. Literally, I could careless about the aesthetics.  

If I could customize how my Succubus did damage then yeah, that would be worth is. Changing the skins and making them like this is a political move, one that was not asked for..

You might be happy but the reality is mediocrity is always happy with style over substance. Thanks for your disclaimer. I am not as nice to mediocre people who try to be condescending. Have fun with your Sayaadi and using it in ERP because that is largely the extent to it's usefulness.
