Re: Molten Front taming grief possible solution?

"The Cleaner" 2.0 basically? I think the holes in the plan have already been pointed out though, so I've got nothing more to add, but. I do like Novi's suggestion a lot though.

Re: Bad Luck with Deth

:( What a jerk of a move. Also, Wicked, they hotfixed the rares immune to taunts and DS, to prevent nicking tames with those spells.

I was one of those people who got the glitchy dailies on the first night, and saw all the rares up at the same time. So no, I don't think they're tied to each other in any way.

Re: The robot pets' spawn timers.

This was said in another thread already but, the 2-5 hour spawn timer was probably just for ptr, where they're lowered for testing purposes. So the actual timer on live servers is likely to be much longer.

Re: Bill S.978 Will SHUT DOWN Gaming Videos and Streams EVER

Uh.. I can't... really quite see this bill going through to be fair. Also, as far as I know, Blizzard is very much on the positive side when it comes to people making machinimas of the game.

Re: Skarr/Karkin not respawning within 2-5 hours

There's been scheduled restarts on the EU servers at least, at 5-6 am since the patch. :o I wonder if that is affecting the timers?

Pretty sure that's what has happened. I'd say the 6-12 is closer to the actual timer, if not 24.

Re: For all the Skarr/Karkin seekers

Quite sure it's intentional like Lupis said. It's a useful buff all around the plume, not just for the two rares. Some of the mobs there have got over 150k health and spawn at a reasonable rate so, makes it a bit easier to plow through.

Re: For all the Skarr/Karkin seekers

Ah of course, this is great news! I noticed the buff when I was helping a friend get up to the plume, but didn't really give it a thought at that moment how big a help it could be to a non-MM hunter.

Re: Best strat for Skarr/Karkin ?

They cast two spells from what I've seen. Fireball, a single target spell that also gives them a haste buff. And the barrage, that hits everyone nearby for crap loads of damage and also interrupts any spell casts (like tame beast).

Re: Best strat for Skarr/Karkin ?

The method I used was: Hit tame (or hit the beast a few times with arcane shot or else to prevent theft) and wait for barrage, hit silencing shot, Deterrance and then Tame. Also, Karkin (not sure if Skarr does too) seems to cast "normal" single target fireballs as well (They seem to add so...

Re: Need help, Kirix up, can't figure out his tame

You are on the lonely rock high up in the air on the left side, right (That one doesn't break. It's also one of Karkin's/Skarr's spawn points)? Try to stand on the very edge of the pedestal, it worked for me.
Like Zmoni said, the pedestals on level with him, cause him to evade.

Re: Deth'Tilac and Anthriss Killed

You would think people would have more respect towards hunters than that. Me and a friend of mine went through the same thing last night except it was a hunter that already had Deth and he was just there to prevent my friend from taming him. Sadly she died and he tamed him only to /lol to the both ...

Re: Green firespider question

I just watched the Hyjal Scout die and spawn the little green spiders. They are NOT tameable, and they despawn in about 45 sec. On a happier note, I just tamed Kirix. =D Edit: It appears they are bugged, and one of them is tameable. Just finished talking with a GM about it and he says that they are...
