1) Find a friend. I brought a level 90 hunter friend, since he wanted one too.
2) Start a duel with said friend. We found that this made the timing a lot more "lenient".
3) Shoot a few arcane shots and auto shots at it and get it down to 1% - 15% health.
4) Stop attacking, and have your friend stand at point-blank range of the cat.
5) Start casting Tame Beast, and while casting, spam Revive Pet as hard as you can. My friend also had me as his focus, so he could see my cast bar and time it more carefully.
6) At the VERY END of your Tame Beast cast, have your friend use some instant cast big-damage move to finish it off (Kill Shot, in our case). We found that waiting until there were 0.3 seconds left in the Tame Beast cast worked well.
Should you succeed, this is what will happen:
- The pet will die, and the corpse will vanish completely.
- Revive Pet will do nothing, and you will be told "Your pet is not dead".
- You WILL NOT see the golden flash. If you saw the flash, you did not succeed.
- The pet will not show up in your stable or in your pet slots.
At this point, you should log off, and you'll see a brown kitty behind you in your character selection screen. Log back in, and you'll see him in your pet slots. Summon him, and show off!
Additionally, in the name of SCIENCE, we tamed an extra one and tested the effects of killing the pet. The results were rather unfortunate, but we thought you should know:
Good luck all!
