List of one-time tames

Unread post by oddlord »

Hello everyone!

I was wondering if there is anywere on Petopia a list of pets that can be tamed only once, such as during non-repeatable quests.
For example, Anima-Gorged Feaster or Shadow of Dambala.

It would be really good to have such a list and keep an eye on it while levelling, in order not to miss out on any one-time tames.

Cheers!

Trained hellhounds can only be tamed in the maldraxxus intro, no threads of fate availability unfortunately, if you want the brown with chains, complete the bastion story, get to maldraxxus, tame, and then do what you want, I am still wondering if people can party/quest sync to regain access to the hounds, but one of my alliance characters has the quest to the spectral mana rays

I went through all the pets listed on Petopia, and these are all of the unique appearances that can be tamed, and only appear during a single quest or quest phase. These NPCs can not be found in any way other than being summoned by the quest, or by being in that quest phase. I may have missed some, but I think I got most of them! I also included some that are only available if you have done enough questing in a zone to be able to unlock the phase or area.

Awesome, ty! I plan on picking up a couple of these in Shadowlands and am debating with myself about the black-winged Aqir. I did all the Klaxxi stuff on my main long ago, but whenever there's a lull in the current expac my other half and I may go back and do dread wastes again on alts.

I would limit the list to one-time quests or phases that can't be revisited. For instance, I wouldn't put Gara on the list, as we can always go back and tame an identical looking spirit beast later.

Hmm. How about two sections or flags - as GormanGhaste asks, ones that the look is absolutely unique, and ones that have a name when tamed that you cannot duplicate. In both cases, only a list of ones you cannot go back for the look/name (excepting quest sync).

For anyone who already did the quest without taming the Anima-Gorged Feaster ray, I still have the quest on my alliance main so can provide a quest sync.

Marrowjaw (https://www.wow-petopia.com/npc.php?id=168036 ) is also a one-Time tame. Forget to tame him during the Maldraxxus Questline and wanted to come back today to tame him but nothing. Seems like as soon as you are hostile with the House of the Chosen, he disappears.

You scared me with this, cause I thought I'd just missed out on him today! But his look is not unique. https://www.wow-petopia.com/look.php?id ... te-nohorns

Edit: That's Marrowmaw not Marrowjaw. But Marrowjaw's look can be obtained too! See posts below.

From Werebearguy's list I winnowed out what I wanted to see, and maybe what some others might like when looking into this topic... tames that, once you miss them, you miss them forever (unless quest sync can save you). Sure enough, I found out making this list that my Alliance hunter missed the Trained Hellhound, today.

Legion		Highmountain			Scout it Out				Irewing
Shadowlands	Ardenweald			(NF8)Cleansing the Forest		Shadow of Dambala

You linked a flyedwing not a plagueroc ;) The black plagueroc skin Marrowjaw has is only available during the Maldraxxus story campaign and during the Venthyr covenant part in Maldraxxus. So you are screwed if you finished the story and aren't Venthyr.

Marrow(m/j)aw aw c'mon Blizz....

But! There's still a happy ending. Marrowjaw's look is also available on an unlimited basis. When you first enter the Plaguefall dungeon, a randomly-colored Plagueroc swoops out, grabs a worker and drops him in the lake, and then circles the lake. You can tame it on the initial pass if you set up in the right spot, or grab it on a circle. It may ignore you... keep trying.

The worst part is that everything in the dungeon and the immediate area is so utterly green, and the tints so similar, that it's hard to tell what color you got. Leave your pet slots empty, as you won't need to fight anything. Zone in, pick at the Plagueroc until you can tame it. Zone out, dismiss, reset the dungeon, go back in. When your pet slots are full take a flight to the Theater of Pain, to see the stablemaster there, who gives you a much better interface to look at them and compare colors. On the first trip I had 3 of the colors, and on the 2nd trip I discovered I had the fourth color.
