[Info]Shadow Chimaeras in Azshara, Unsure if tameable or not
Posted: Thu Dec 02, 2010 4:38 am
I went to investigate the shadowform Chimaeras someone mentioned, so here are my discoveries. I have no idea if these can be tamed to keep the shadowform, I'm afraid there's so many variables and it's late here so I'll leave that to some of you adventurous folk. I thought the least I could do is compile the information I found though, hopefully it helps.
In Northern Azshara is an area with Satyrs wandering around.
The Legashi Hellcaller mobs seem to go around and randomly put a curse on the nearby wildlife.
They will do this to Stags, Hippogryphs, and Chimaeras.
It's a channeled cast, which leaves the beast with a shadowform effect (Hellcaller's Corruption) for a limited duration. This does not kill the beast. When the duration is up the shadowform simply goes away and the beast reverts to normal.
I had to wander around for a good 20 minutes until I found a Chimaera with it. This whole thing highly dependable on the behaviour of the Satyrs, which makes it annoying and will most likely be very frustrating to attempt to tame. The total time if you find a mob that is freshly cursed is about 55 seconds. That's roughly a minute window that you have to try to kill the beast and tame it at the same time. Plus these are very low level mobs, so for a high level character I imagine this will be a headache. They only have about 400 health.
