This was true, although at the moment the Pet_Abandon macro seems to be dysfunctional. Also, the wolf would lose this 'buff' on it's death, or yours, so it'd be nothing more than a trophy pet unless you wished to retame one every time a death occurred.

Well, if you just want it for looks, why not spec BM, and tame the spirit beast Karoma, who IS a ghost wolf?

I'm not entirely sure if it is tamable atm, as the Pet_Abandon script isn't working for the tames. There is another way that is working after several tries, but I neither know how to do it, nor if it works for this pet. You will need to have someone else answer those questions. I'd suggest PMing someone like Kalliope about it. She seems to know a fair deal about it.

You could also give these threads a look:

Thanks. That moment would have to be the best hunter moment in the 6+ years I have been playing. I also have Karoma and he is just as good so good luck! :headbang:

Yes, it's true. The Ghostpaw Runners in Ashenvale DO turn into Ghost Wolves, and I tamed one back when the pet_abandon() macro worked, however, if they die, they lose it. They're not grandfathered into the look, so it's worthless to take the time to tame one.

I'm sorry this is off the topic and nitpicky but.. Raytor, I don't know if you've heard of the feature or not but you can edit your messages if you want to add something. So you don't need to post a new reply each time if something you want to add pops into mind! ;) Sorry if I'm sounding redundant but I just ought to point it out.

Karoma is very pretty, I adore mine greatly. (I like his spirit beasty look because it isn't as see through/polygony. *nods*) Good luck finding him! The challenge is part of the fun. :D

its not nitpicky, i was about to post the same thing.

Yeah if you have another idea or thought after you hit submit on your message, simply go back and edit the original one. its just a basic "forum etiquette". Its kind of a "unwritten rule" in this forum that looks down upon forum 'bumping' even though you probably weren't intending for that to happen. No worries :)

I'd say just go grab a Ghostsaber. They're more fancy anyways I believe
