Deterrance is 5 seconds, you'll have landed by then.

Best way is probably to get a parachute cloak of some kind if you're not an engineer already (Shatari Skyguard cloak works too) and macro something to cancelaura the parachute buff.

1) Prep with Ancient Hysteria/Freezing Trap where you intend to land (there's tons of corehounds north if they make them tameable)
2) Tag the bird with arcane shot
3) Pop Deterrance at some point to negate the moonfire hits. He only seems to cast them in close range.4) Pop parachute cloak 15 yards above ground or so, then cancel it so you land faster but negate the fall damage
5) Make sure it will hit the trap or just start taming in a panic

That all said, they're still rare spawns... will be fun to camp and tag first and all, especially naked of gear.

Those spirit strikes were hitting him for like 25k every second. God damn, that Owl is gonna be one hard as fuck beast to tame.
Yeah it will......

Finally, a worthy tame. Terrorpene was the hardest one because of the damage output but I still did it with 40k HP left. That Hunter in the vid was left with just above 10k. 1 more Spirit Strike and he woulda died, that trap went off successfully just at the right time. That video also links up to an other rare beast video too.

Not even sure if it's tamable but it's still a beast!

I am a sad now.

Tho, I am thrilled about 2 new Spirit Beasts, the one is a Gondria reskin which blows and is lazy on Blizzard's part but I'll nab him up as a Trophy anyway. :-D

So.

Owl
Cat
..and what else is there now?

*raises an eyebrow* Every Spirit Beast that has been introduced since Loque'nahak has been 'another recolor' save Karoma, and Loque'nahak and Karoma just borrowed their skins off of untamable NPCs without even getting a recolor.

EDIT: Karoma wasn't even a recolor; post has been edited to reflect that.

Another valid point. Very true. Atleast they're making some difference with these ones.

If Deth’tilac looks like Beth’tilac, I'll tame all the recolours I have to in order to get that spider. I had hoped that some of the new 8 wouldn't be BM pets, since I dislike the spec, but I can dump the recolours easily enough for that spider.

I don't think you have to tame them all to unlock them.

Nooo, that's not what I mean. It's just...it's another Gondria. Just a different color. Not that awesome. Until now, every Spirit Beast has been sort of unique.

*Actually, it's TWO Gondria's. One recolor wouldn't have been bad. But there's two. So I guess what I'm trying to say is that I'm kinda disappointed that two of these 8 are Gondria recolors?

Expect more of them yet. There are two other colours for Skoll that are still unused. I'm certain they'll find their way into the game at some point. It'd be a shame if they were locked away forever just because you, personally, want every spirit beast to have a different base model.

Gondria is a spectral saber cat that emits ectoplasm.

Arcturis is a spectral bear that emits ectoplasm.

Ghost Crawler ^ ^ ^

Skoll is a unique Saber-Worg that emits arcs of lightning around him.

All of them are unique in a skin that doesn't share any other with any other tamable mob in-game.

The 2 "new" Spirit Beast Cats are purely recolored Gondrias whos only difference is color.

Oh, so these latest Spirit Beasts are not "unique in a skin that doesn't share any other with any other tamable mob in-game"? Really?
