So I was watching that factions preview event trailer on guildwars.com and was trying to look for pictures of new pets, and whadyaknow, around 55 seconds, theres a clear picture of a crab with a clear green bar over it.

Woot to new pets!

There are also cranes. Just outside of marketplace there are tigers, dire tigers, cranes, elder cranes. And a crab with a blue title. Not red (hostile) or green (neutral/environment) what does blue mean?

I encountered a Giant Turtle. It was following a traveler and I couldn't charm it. Darn.

Tempting but I will stick to my UW spider , but on another character may switch its second profession to get a new pet.

Gaile mentioned that Factions will have some "elite quest" pets. I believe these can be compared to the UW spiders.

Crabs, how freakin funny is this. I can not wait to see it in action! Shame we cannot dual wield pets . . . Would prolly look to much like Pokemon . . . Nvm, not worth the copyright lawsuits that Anet would incur

I believe I've seen a vidcap featuring a flying dragon, although this may be more of an NPC than a potential pet.

So get out there and start petitioning!

The Dragon is part of the Alliance battle, you capture the shrine where they are generated and they join your side of the fight.

edit:

Oh, I was checking to see if any other creature had been found on the Kurzik side beside the White Tiger. Tigers and Cranes outside Marketplace, Crabs on Luxon side, White Tigers on Kurzik. Any other pet creatures found? Probably not since it is just preview, but doesn't hurt to ask.

I have a pet Black Moa bird from the Kurzick side - did the quest "the black beak" and instead of killing the bird, I charmed it!

yea I was surprised how many over looked the Black Moa bird quest for the potential to charm a lev 20 pet ASAP... I did this the first day in fact. I found the elder tigers lev 15 and used them. I didn't go after the elder Crane, but I saw a couple with them. but my black moa bird just rocked... it was a HUGE help in the Kur quests for my ranger monk... I think this was the first time I went full beast master, and it was really interesting to see the pets potential... especially with poison and disrupting lunges... The heal as one thing was interesting as well. I played the alliance battle with the pet more often then I should have. everyone was used to ignoring the pets as most were only level 5 or 6 (or because of anti iway habits), but when all of the sudden my moa was hitting them for 24-42 dmg and poisoning and interrupting their skills, people were like OMG kill it, kill it!!!! lol

and it had that cool spiked coller and ankle bracelttes... It was one bad bird... so I named him BAD BIRD. and he rocked!!!

You have to do the quest the girl in Cavalon gives you after you get the 10,000 faction.
