The Purple Croc is Mine!

Unread post by Talaridan »

I decided since I was questing in Uldum, I would try and tame Gorebite, the only dark/purple crocolisk skin. Little did I know it would be such an adventure!

I get there to do the quest and the final boss is out. So I wait....and wait....and wait.... And nothing happens.

Okay, no problem, I'll go away and come back later.

No luck! An hour later, nothing has changed. Weird, but I have a brilliant idea! I drop the quest and head toward the boss and....die. :shock: It turns out the "invisible baby crocs of doom" are bugged again!

Three deaths later, I finally manage to drag the boss back out of the pit and kill him alone. Success!

I run to get the quest, land to start it and...die. Again. What in the world?! :evil: Apparently, the invisible crocs are still going! Three deaths, two log outs, dropping the quest four times...

I fly in and start the quest and flee! I stand way, way outside and my precious purple croc spawns! I grab her before she heads into the pit and drag her far to the river and tame her!

Surprisingly, the Second Phase starts, and the two crocs rush into the pit..and die. The baby crocs know no mercy! :shock:

I try to finish the quest and pull the boss back, but die again! I rush back, manage to kite him again to the river and my new dark croc buddy tanks him beautifully! And the quest completes!

Even better, here's my pretty new friend!

I love that croc skin. Mine is named Aggro and is my PVP buddy. Odd about the quest mobs being bugged... I didn't realize it did that sometimes.

Apparently since 4.3, it's been really, really bad.

Oh, he's lovely! I always have liked the Cata Crocs a lot more then the Vanilla.
And yeah, the quest ones are somewhat hard to tame ._.
