In Mop any pet can have it's 'spec' switched between Ferocity<>Cunning<>Tenacity.
What pets will you switch to a currently unavailable spec?

I want a Ferocity Shale Spider to pull out for the King's buff when we have no Paladin/Monk/Druid in a group.

Naturally will keep a Ferocity Spirit Beast/Cat and a Devilsaur/Wolf on hand for the AG/St or Crit buff as needed, a Ferocity Worm if all the buffs are covered by other players cause i like worms.

and finally a Tenacity Spirit Beast/Cat for general soloing would be great.

Ill get 1 cat and 1 wolf for pre-buffs then a bunch of monkeys in the spec that gives sac and bullheaded.

Basically I will be doing what I do now.

I saw a hunter running around with a hydra on beta the other day. Also, I am changing Karkin (robo crab) into a ferocity crab. Be jealous.

My spiders are likely going to become tenacity, for that extra bit of survivability in pvp.

I have multiple spirit beasts, so I'll probably make some of them into tenacity and cunning.

Everything else? Probably make the buff pets into ferocity for pve.

Someone saw someone with a hydra in the beta? Must download.

This is quite hard since I do not know how pets will ultimately work in MOP.

1. Will there be pets that offer group buffs or enemy debuffs, and are they changing some of them since the buff is not there (cats roar str/agi) or are baseline (5% crit)?

2. What will be the final list of abilities they get in each tree?

It'd be interesting to see the buffs our pets provide expanded some if that's the case. Certain effects like +5% spell crit to target, +5% raid spell Haste, etc would be excellent additions.

The best thing about the pet family "respec" though is that Beast Mastery no longer has an artificial handicap. Playing BM on Heroic Madness or Heroic Yor'sahj? No longer have to use a Worm and lower single target damage to get AoE. Need to use a Dragonhawk to cover that +8% spell damage? No longer have to use a Cunning pet and drop your DPS almost 2k below what you would do with a Ferocity.

It's true we don't know. if we assume that pets will not longer be raid buff swiss army knives, then really switching our pet's becomes mostly aesthetic! i would still run a Ferocity Shale Spider or Worm in that case because those are my two favorite Pet genera and i wish i could use them in groups.
