Dev Chat: Gimme, gimme moar slotz!

Twitter dev chat yesterday give some nice info and two particular things came out for hunters

Q. Are hunters likely to see more stable slots for their pets in the future? With the current variety of pets, the amount they have right now seems too small.
A. Arm-waving here, but a model I would love to see is dramatically expanded slots (so you can store all those Spirit Beasts) but have a smaller number of "active" pets, like 3. You could summon an active pet from anywhere in the world, when outside of combat. You would swap a pet from active to the stable at the Stable Masters.
This is AWESOME GIMME GIMME GIMME! This is a fantastic idea DO IT!


Q. The Hunter class has many odd and situational abilities such as Mongoose Bite and Aspect of the Beast - are there any plans for changes to these types of abilities?
A. Mongoose Bite is most likely a goner. Let us weep. We think Aspect of the Beast could have some cool uses for Beastmaster hunters.
I've got mixed feeling on this one, mostly because i like Mongoose Bite, since I hold on to dreams of melee hunters, but it good go and have little to know effect on hunter game play. The Aspect of the Beast idea has potential with one particular change. Aspect of the beast is one of the aspects not covered by aspect mastery. Personally every aspect should have some effect on every like no stun on cheetah. Cheetah/Pack, Wild, and Beast need to be included as part of the talent before I hop on the bandwagon, I'd I'm a fan of Beast. All and all some good potential, hopefully the stream of cata info will start coming in soon
