My trickiest tame yet

Unread post by Flyra »

Today my Worgen hunter , Vasla, (who I have sworn to only tame rares on ) reached level 55-56 so I decided to go and tame a pet I'd been eyeing up for a while: Zora (bronze wasp) . It took me a while running across silithus and I tamed a temporary scorpid which I called Banana to help me through the hive. Zora is located in Hive'Zora which if you have never been there is a place packed with groups of wasps and silithids. I checked all of Zora's spawn places and nearly died many times (theres some caves filled with wasps and if you attack one they all come for you :shock: ). Then, finally in the LAST place I looked was a cave containing Zora - which was also packed with yellow wasps. I stood there for a while staring at the circling bronze wasp hopefully before using my main tactic in taming: Just go for it. I waited until Zora came by where I stood and hit tame, not only did she notice me but all of the other yellow wasps. I stared at the tame bar going down along with my health and suddenly there was a brilliant flash and Zora was mine! I quickly dismissed her and feigned death.

Later that day I took Vasla to Un'goro and looked for the Ravasaur Matriarch and her nest with no luck. So I logged on my night elf who was camped in Mount Hyjal. (The other day I tamed Ankha thinking she was Magria and decided since I didn't get Magria to go back and try). There was no Magria where I was camping so I flew along and low and behold I see the beautifully blue tiger shooting out from the trees , I flew down and started tame which didn't work as Magria was running away. So, I ran and tamed her again and about a second after I hit tame beast she became mine - some kind of glitch?

Later when I got back on Vasla I found the Ravasaur Matriarch AND her nest. ;D

Congratulations! :D

And what a weird glitch with Magria! How odd...
