Compy vs saurid

Hey, could somebody in alpha do me a favor and check out the Trained Compy and Loa-Infused Compy on Isle of Thunder in alpha? According to wowhead's database, in BfA they have been renamed to Trained Saurid and Loa-Infused Saurid. If that is true, then I think this page should be moved to saurid? All the compies I've seen in BfA videos are also called saurids. ReignTG (talk) 22:38, 24 March 2018 (UTC)

I'll see if I can get there tomorrow. Don't know if the old world is blocked off. PeterWind (talk) 23:26, 24 March 2018 (UTC)

Maybe don't move the page too fast, considering that they are still called Compies in retail, and that quests like this one were only partially updated. Xporc (talk) 10:12, 25 March 2018 (UTC)

Honestly, it might be best to wait for release to see the outcome for these. Could've been a mistake? — SurafbrovWarcraft Wiki administrator T / C 10:15, 25 March 2018 (UTC)

I don't think it's a mistake, but it'd be like someone alreaded tagged Zul as "deceased" because he's a boss in a raid that will release 9 months from now. Xporc (talk) 10:36, 25 March 2018 (UTC)

Well it is in alpha, never know if it is a mistake or not. :) — SurafbrovWarcraft Wiki administrator T / C 14:24, 25 March 2018 (UTC)

The BfA version of WowDB's database still calls them Loa-Infused Compy and Trained Compy. However, it does look like the Compy Venom ability was renamed to Saurid Venom. -- DeludedTroll (talk • contribs) 10:43, 25 March 2018 (UTC)

Not sure I can get there rigt now. From the BfA zones, I used moonglade portal, tried to take boat from Darnassus to Stormwind, but after loading zone I was sent to Dolanaar on Teldrassil. Maybe in later parts of the test. PeterWind (talk) 14:11, 25 March 2018 (UTC)

I appreciate you taking the time to try at least. Thanks. ReignTG (talk) 15:32, 25 March 2018 (UTC)

Ok turns out I'm a dummy! There was a Stormwind portal right behind the place you start out at. Fierce Anklebiters have had their model updated. Trained Compy were indeed updated to Trained Saurid, with new model. Same with Loa-Infused Compy to Loa-Infused Saurid. PeterWind (talk) 16:43, 25 March 2018 (UTC)

Model updated as well, that's cool. I really like the new model. ReignTG (talk) 16:51, 25 March 2018 (UTC)

I just hope with all these changes to these mobs, they update that quest. >.< — SurafbrovWarcraft Wiki administrator T / C 21:40, 25 March 2018 (UTC)
