Got my ghostcrawler. =D

Unread post by nellieah »

Hey.. new to these forums, I didn't see if there was a set thread for taming stories so sorry if I am putting this here when I shouldn't be.

I must be one lucky girl.. lol my friend said it took him months to get it. I was helping him get his oil stained bird and when we were done I thought hmm.. I'm going to go see if GC is up, ( noticing he wasn't cached yet. )

So headed over on my slow as f--- 150% mount and took the long trek all the way down.
As I was floating down I set up my

/cleartarget
/target Ghostcrawler
/stopmacro [noexists]
/script PlaySound("RaidWarning")
/run RaidNotice_AddMessage(RaidBossEmoteFrame,"THERE HE IS !", ChatTypeInfo["RAID_WARNING"])

macro.. even though nothing else is in the area... just a habit for me.

I wasn't even there for 5 minutes when my NPC scan went off. I screamed at my friend in vent
He said he hated me as a joke and he wish he had my luck.
I tagged him in case someone in the area tried to pull a funny and I hit tame.

OH MY GOD he kicked my tush good. I was almost half way down and I feigned. AND THEN HE DISAPPEARED. I was freaking out in vent ( maybe its a girl thing? ) and my friend told me not to worry he will pop back up. I was still kind of worried but then I saw him again.

cropped at the button cause a friend on real id came on ;p


I didn't even tag it this time, I just wanted him to be mine! and get the suspense over with. I ate a haste food buff and popped a haste flask I hit rapid fire, ( i don't even know if it affects taming but I did it anyway ) and began the tame.
He was hitting me hard, but I KNEW this time he was all mine, and I was right!

At 3:17am (6:17 server) I saw the lights of the successful tame and I squealed in vent. My friend congratulated me.
I did a /who to see if any hunters were in the area but there were none. So I hearthed back to org and announced it there in case any hunters were looking.

I named him Ghostcrawler because I wanted to continue on his name.

My quest for rare pets has come to an end, I have them all. Kind of sad. =( But happy at the same time.

Congrats! I have a similar story with my GC. Haha, I just randomly thought I should check em out. So I cleared my cache, did some bogus quest chain to get the Seahorse and went to go check on him! I went and followed his path according to NPCscan.Overlay and at the end...THERE HE WAS! I was freakin excited, he was one of the toughest to tame on the account of being immune to traps and hitting like a truck. Anyway, I named him "MagesBlowMe" out of spite of the "Lead Dev" of WoW.

Again, congrats on the tame! He's one of my fav models.

Hail Thor-show thy might. Let thunder roar and lightning strike!
Hurl thy hammer into the fray. And let thine enemies know fear this day!
VICTORY, OR VALHALLA!!!
