Hee, my first King Krush tame.

Unread post by Vephriel »

Although King Krush never interested me as a tame for Vephriel, I did hope to one day tame him on an alt, just so I could say I had him.

My draenei hunter recently hit 75, so I figured she was a good candidate to own the green dino. I wasn't really going to camp for him though, I was hoping to just run into him.

Well, KK has always loved my boyfriend for some reason. He's found that devilsaur more times than I can count just by randomly flying through Sholazar and going "Hey, that rare dinosaur's up."

Sure enough, about half an hour ago, he's leveling his new priest in Sholazar, and comes across KK. I hurriedly logged in to my draenei, who was all the way in Grizzly Hills, and flew the tortuously slow route to Sholazar on a low speed flying mount. I didn't think he'd last long enough for me to make it there, but he did.

I attempted to tame him for about 15 minutes. I was wholly unprepared, all I had was my hunter by herself. No core hound, no pots, no speed anything. Well, I gave it a good few tries, but he bested me each time with his fear, and I realized it just wasn't going to happen.

So I flew allll the way back to Dalaran to buy some haste potions. Again, I never thought he'd stay up long enough for me to spend the time flying to the city and coming back. Luckily I wasn't too invested in the tame. I mean, I wanted to have him, but I wouldn't have been devastated if I missed out on him. It was a whim thing really, not a passionate goal. Miraculously he was still there when I returned though. I used the haste pots and this time managed to snag him right before he cast his fear. :)

So, I'm happy to say I have him now on a character. It was a fun tame, if a little stressful of course, but yay devilsaur! ^_^

Grats! You don't see many of him, since he's still hard to come by.

Hee, thanks! And oh yes, I know of his tame in the past. :lol: I definitely couldn't have managed the original one by myself at a bare level 75, but that's alright. It wasn't really about the challenge or the rarity, more of just...I love devilsaurs, and even if the green isn't my favourite colour, I wanted to own him somewhere. :D

I was wearing a Gir shirt today. When I looked down and saw his bright green it was the first thing to pop into my head, so his name is Gir. :D

Grats on your tame. Those stressfull yet thrilling tames are the most memorable sometimes!

I love my Krush! I only tamed him because it took me months to find him. I figured he'd hang for a while then be released but he's still here. I've since released other pets I thought I was much more attached to. Something about him is so totally adorably and goofy I just can't bear to let him go. He's one of my pets whos personality was evident immediately after taming. He was instantly no longer the ferocious King Krush but just my silly Badcop. My black Devilsaur's personality is polar opposite. She is ferocious and temperamental while he's goofy and laid-back. It's weird how some pet's personalities just come shining through like that.

Aw, it warms me wee ticker to see someone tame KK. :3 Hope your little draenei ends up falling for him more than she anticipated. ;) Congrats on the tame, and I LOVE the name you chose! It fits him so well!

Congratulations and welcome to the Krush Klub!

I think Krush was the rare I was most excited about finally getting. I hunted for him for over 4 months before finally taming him.

It's good to see another Zim fan. My Krush is named Grumpy, but my corehound, formerly known as Chromaggus, is named Gir!

Congratulations on nabbing King Krush. I was roaming around Sholazar Basin looking for Loque'nahak when I found my KK. He sits in my stable still unnamed, although all the talk about him being grumpy got me thinking.

Who else do I know that is grumpy and green? Oscar the Grouch from Sesame Street! Tonight, I'm pulling out KK and naming him Oscar! lol

Mine is named Grumpy after the green(ish) t-rex from the old Land of the Lost tv show. (not that awful movie that came out a few years ago).
