Don't insult our beloved FGs by calling some BE craptastic pet a FG. Now i know that not just any ole nub can examine a creature and get its CL.. but i know for a fact that anynub under the sun can see the creature type when they examine it. If you took the time to notice it, it said "A GRAUL" not "A FRENZIED GRAUL." Plus who the hell would name a recently tamed FG? Is it just me or does naming one take away from the name it is given upon spawning?
I still have my webmaster from when they had ar2. I didn't name him then, and although it doesn't matter now.. i still not going to name him. Just seems to methat the rarer the pet the more appealing their "baby" name is.

Agreed, I have not named any of my rares, not even my Toxic Merek Battlelord.
Although the TMB is not rare, it is one of the few pet-worthy wild tamables that deserves the honor of retaining his breed and class name.
Highly questionable post
Frenzieds are cl 56 not 54. This sounds to me if indeed cl 54 that this is a bio pet.
But they are tamable as ultra rare spawns so it is possible. No one has yet to provide a screenshot to prove they have tamed one.

I personally feel that naming a pet seals the bond between you and it. The very first thing I do after taming a pet (Well, after storing it and running to a safe place to recall it) is give it a name. When I see "a frenzied graul (baby)", it makes me feel as though the pet is simply there to be sold. As far as I can see, those who tame rares and don't name them is either using the pet only to "show off", or to sell.
Yeah, I'm a RolePlayer at heart. I just don't like my pets having the whole unknown, uncared for identity aspect. Once I give them a name, it feels like they gain a personality of their own, and I feel much more closely "connected" to them. I see "an arachne webmaster (baby)" or "a toxic merek battlelord (baby)" or even the BE'd versions, "a graul", just thrown into battle against all odds to tank. I, on the other hand, prefer to be there with my pets, and often end up tanking for them. Unnamed pets are more like tools then companions.
Well, I rambled on a bit too much, I guess. I'll stop on this final note- I'd rather jump in to save "Shival" or "Akito" then I would "a rancor (baby)".
I don't even train my rares, Why use them when they really aren't that great in the 1st place. They are trophies and worth WAY to much to use.
IMO the best wild pets out there are the rancor and TMB. They are very common with good resists and ham. The rancor does decent damage as well. If they lose tons of vit its no big deal.
BTW Has anyone found that gurk that swgcreatures says is tameable?
Until I see a SS of a "non-fullgrown" FG I won't believe they have babies again. Screenies of full size ones mean nothing since they were tameable once.
