A Brief explanation of This Taming Method:
Some beasts have an extra Visual effect when they are walking around as hostile beasts.
When these beasts are tamed, they are immediatly "Cleaned" and will have lost the Visual bonus.
Making the pet Vanish immediatly after it has been tamed, skips this Cleaning process, maintaining the Visual Bonus.




Tip:
In my experience it was easyest to have a Rogue party member, who has "focus" on you, to see the cast-bar of the taming, so he can time a perfect backstab killing it instantly. ~also, he can sap the target, making it all a bit more comfterable.



These 5 pets are currently the only known pets that will save their look.

*Oil-Stained Wolf, world first by Kyonarai
Visual Bonus: Oil
Timer-tamed by Quest item or Death.



*Angered Arakkoa Protector, world first by Griffley
Visual Bonus: Blue Mist
Tamed by natural dissapearence

*Oiled Hawk, world first by Griffley

Tamed by Killing-method
Guide link: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=7058


*The Lone Hunter, world first by bcofido
Visual Bonus: Sword
Tamed by Killing-method


*Armored Battleboar, world first by Dobarantu
Visual Bonus: Flames
Tamed by Killing-method

Burning boar time? =)

Edit: well, I'm talking about that post: http://forums.wow-petopia.com/viewtopic.php?p=158168#p158168.
The author decided to delete the text with no given reason.
Apparently, a burning boar from a quest in an horde staring zone has been griffed, or griff-tamed :p

I will check the burning boars tomorrow, Now my horde friend is sleeping who will have to set them on fire
Maybe some americans can check.
Im off to bed in a bit too.

PS: I will make guides just like the ones i already made, for the Sword-wolf and the Oil-wolf. (with credits to their original tamers ofcourse).
Because that way I can add those links to this list, to prevent people from having to ask about them.

Good night

I happened to look at this. /script PetAbandon() means that you are *abandoning* the pet, doesn't it? As in, releasing it into the wild? I would be careful with that one if so; Blizzard might end up fixing the abandon bug that some people are having! And in doing so, it might 'fix' this method.

Just saying. Wouldn't want to get the tame and then immediately abandon your pet.

Come see Kurasu's stables!

Could you put the link in for the threads of all the sticking critters please? At a later date might be a pain to find the original threads again for the faffier ones like say the oil stained wolf

Amazing! I know I will be taming some of these beasts before they get a chance to take it away (if they do). I was to give a huge THANK YOU /HUG to everyone who has contributed.

I just want to clarify: with the non-permanent buffs, does it ONLY go away from the pet or hunter dying? What about being dismissed by dismiss pet, mounting up, or being placed in the stables? This may seem like a silly question, but I want to know for sure before I tame them.

Rejoined the hunt after a lengthy break... feels good!

Aria this thread clearly says which ones are permanent. please read thorougly, they are even the only ones with pictures.
And yes, Only trough Death. and for some possibly entering Arena.
the non-hardcore ones can be griffed permanently

Okay, thank you! Just wanted to make sure.

You misread my post completely.

I asked if you would put the LINKS to the original threads for the pets that stick. Several such as the Oil stained wolf do not have this link in this thread. I ask for this so this thread a one stop shop for them without having to trawl the forums to find the original thread for each individual sticking pet. There is no need to get snarky over it :/

Griff this is great info Thanks for putting it all together in one thread.

Question though, is the PetAbandon thing needed? I'm just a bit confused on what it does, or why spamming Revive Pet is needed for some of the tames. Thanks!
