In a private moment at a beautiful, secluded location, I tearfully removed Porkchop's armor and released him to the wild. I did not feel it was fair to keep him cooped up in the stables as Mugato took over the roll of tanking pet.
Please cherish your memories of Porkchop, as he accompanied our early groups many times .... always with a feisty and loyal attitude.
But in a leap from WoW to RL, Porchop is now personified in my home. As you can see below, he still maintains his feisty attitude. In this picture he is rutting and scraping on my new
Gorilladin shirt. He is still a little upset about being replaced as tanking pet by Mugato (my gorilla).
The future of boars as stronger tanking pets
may be a bit brighter. Blizzard has hinted about reworking the tenacity class pets, resulting in more powerful abilities for all of them.
If that day comes, Porkchop could make a triumphant return to WoW.
