Re: How to tame the Burning Boars!
haha now there is a horde equivalent pet glitch to the alliance quest chain for the oil-stained worg. but much easier to achieve.
Anyways I on the other hand found it quite difficult doing it alone. Tried everything I could with freeze trap. Throw torch, freeze trap, tame, that's too much going on within 7 seconds.
Eventually the easiest and fastest way for me was to stand close to trough or right on top of it and start the tame. Then had a friend throw the torch two seconds into the taming. Took me only two tries with a friend. The first boar ran out of range and the second just ran around close to me and it appeared to be a fail but when I tried taming another boar it wouldn't let me. It kept saying that I had an active pet summoned already but looked at it and only had three pets in there.
Before I knew about the log off technique, I just ran to the closest stable master to check it out, and the boar icon appeared in my active pets. Boom, bacon!!! I love him to death haha.

Re: How to tame the Burning Boars!
XP on heroics has been nerfed considerably recently. That's probably why.Alax wrote:hi are u guys able to level these boars? I tamed my one earlier and after running 3 heroic ,its still stuck at lvl 77

Come see Kurasu's stables!
Re: How to tame the Burning Boars!
but 3 heroic and not even a lvl is too nonsense
Re: How to tame the Burning Boars!
ok nm i found out the reason. they really nerf the heroic exp for pets. 4 runs of heroic and not even one lvl. i went out to kill some normal mob while doing daily and it leveled:)
Re: How to tame the Burning Boars!
I am thinking of naming mine "Porkchops" just because "PorkchopSandwiches" is just too long.

This is Tai's new boar, Afelia. Tai loves boars. Tai hates fire. It's an adventure, let me tell you.

Re: How to tame the Burning Boars!
Haaa, that's awesome. I haven't gotten any witty comments, just a lot of targets, laughs and 'how is your boar on fire?'

Re: How to tame the Burning Boars!
Whenever i tame mine it goes back to a regular boar and no longer a flaming one, any ideas on why?

Re: How to tame the Burning Boars!
Someone just tamed another one today, so it's not nerfed....sometimes it just requires a lot of tries. ><
Re: How to tame the Burning Boars!
Don't think I'll be able to get one before they take this away... I can't connect with anyone I know to do the torch for me.

Re: How to tame the Burning Boars!
What's your hunter's name on your server? If I have time tomorrow, I wouldn't mind making a tauren for you to do the quest and help you get it. I can't promise I'll have time, though. My husband and I have several things we have to do.Slickrock wrote:Don't think I'll be able to get one before they take this away... I can't connect with anyone I know to do the torch for me.

I appreciate the offers. I'll have to see who's here when I have some time, and see if there's a vent server I can grab for a bit.Aiyannah wrote: I'd be willing to help out too. I'm a very patient personwhich is why I have so many rares and lol glitched beasts as pets

Re: How to tame the Burning Boars!
For people wanting to tame one of these Armored barbecues this is how:
First, get a friend to make a tuaren and quest till you get the quest to set trofs on fire. Second, make a macro with /script PetAbandon(). Third, stand on the trof and start taming, while taming spam that macro! Forth, halfway through the tame your friend will set it on fire. If it works the boar will disappear, relog and you will have it.
GL to anyone out there reading this. I am on the server Argent Dawn with the name Rakuøn.
