Patch 8.2 Live This Week: 90 New Pets, Stratholme Pet Dungeon & More

UPDATE: We're aware of the import error afflicting users. It appears to be an issue on Blizzard's end. Until they fix the API issue, try using this workaround to get your WarcraftPets collection up-to-date. It seems to work for most users, but not all. Apologies for the inconvenience; hopefully this is addressed soon.

UPDATE #2: Blizzard has resolved this issue. Thanks for your patience.


Patch 8.2 is live this week. There are many new pets to collect, a new Pet Dungeon to conquer, and more. [source]

Many New Pets
Rise of Azshara patch adds 90 new pets! Here's a quick summary:

• 41 dropped
• 31 wild
• 7 from vendors
• 4 from the new Pet Dungeon vendor
• 3 achievement rewards
• 2 crafted
• 2 quest rewards

Check out all Patch 8.2 pets!

Pets that come from the new raid, The Eternal Palace, and the megadungeon, Operation: Mechagon, will not be available at the launch of Patch 8.2. Collectors will need to wait for both of these zones to open on July 9, 2019.

With the addition of so many new pets, we're still in the process of updating our database. We'll continue to include new images, alternate skins, breeds, updated maps and more to the site as Patch 8.2 unfolds.

Some users may experience an error when importing their collection due to issues with the Blizzard API. We're currently looking into this, however it may need to be addressed on Blizzard's end.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Stratholme Pet Dungeon
Patch 8.2 adds an all new Pet Dungeon — Stratholme! [source]

• All vendor pets are Bind On Pick Up and not cageable
• A hidden encounter and achievement, Malowned, that rewards the pet Burnout (pictured right)
