Plaguerocs in Plaguefall are tamable

Unread post by ScvgrHyena »

So while my guild was leveling up their alts, they asked if I wanted to level up my hunter since he was still level 57. I said sure and we spammed normal dungeons (the Necrotic Wake and Plaguefall) since these were the only 2 dungeons most of us had unlocked. While doing Plaguefall for the 3rd time I decided to see if the Plaguerocs were tamable. They came up as tamable with Beast Lore, and then while I was waiting for the tank to come back from his break I decided to tame the first Plagueroc I could find which is straight ahead if you walk in from the entrance. I tamed it and it looks like it used the purple color for the Death Roc skin. But then again I could be wrong as all of the Plaguerocs look kinda the same in the Maldraxxus green light. I'm just wondering why on Petopia it says they aren't tamable when they are. Anyway, someone on normal can maybe go through and test to see which ones are tamable and where there are, my hunter only has 158 ilevel so he isn't high enough to run around checking Plaguerocs. I hope it turns out to be true and not a bug, as it seems a lot of the Plagueroc skins are tied behind convent quests that most can't get access too.

I found out months ago, werebearguy and I shared pictures of it months ago, this was right when I tamed it as a low level, werebearguy found out that the scripted ones can be tamed at level 60

But why are they still listed under untameable than if this is known since months? Guess that's what confused the OP.

It’s confusing cuz most of the rocs are a level higher while that specific scripted one is 60, Wain forgot to change it

Ever since these are tameable, I’ve helped one person get the purple roc, and I’m down to help even more people get it

How did I miss this thread? Sorry. I've now set the scripted plagueroc just inside the dungeon entrance as tameable. Are there any others in there that can be tamed? Or are they all either not-attackable, or too high level?

The others can be tamed if you are below level 60, I’ve tamed those multiple times

So all the ones from the dungeon that I have marked as "flagged tameable but will always be one level higher than you" are actually tameable, but only below level 60? Are they now the same level as the player up to 59, but then become 61 when you reach 60?

I’ve tamed them multiple times, so I can confirm that they’re tameable in lower levels, idk what level the rocs would be if I was level 59 for example, but yeah, it’s so complicated how it scales up so quickly to 61
