Takk the Leaper

[Turgus]

I was running around working on my cooking (has been sitting at 1 skill point for ages) when I chanced upon Takk the Leaper, the first time I have ever seen him in-game.

A little back story, he was the first real pet that I wanted and hunted for way back in the day (in first days of WoW) but never found. He was the pet that never was.
Now, I have moved on, and have a ton of really good pets, King Krush ect, whom I would never replace; but I felt a bit nostalgic, and refused to let him out of my sight until I found him a good home.

After about 30 minutes of whispering level 20 hunters and chatting in general Barrens chat I found a hunter that wanted to tame him. So I kept him tapped and chain trapped until he got there. After a few moments Takk was tamed and had a brand new best friend.

It may seem silly, but I got great satisfaction when he ran off with Takk the Leaper in tow.
Ahh... the adventures they will have....

Just felt like sharing

Aw, that's a lovely story. Pet nostalgia can hit pretty hard sometimes, so I know exactly what you're talking about. ^^ And I love sending people off with a rare pet. I'm never going to be able to get my Frostbitten achievement because each time I run into Loque or Aotona I have to whisper people first to find a home for them. x)

[tramani]

that was awesome of you , i hate it when people kill rares for greens or silly achievments.
GJ giving him a new home

I think there's other tamable mobs have the same skin, but I keep mine on Chrizesu to bug everyone's npc scan. XD

[cowmuflage]

The ones in WC are the same skin.

This just proves how evil I am.

I have the same heart you do. Before my big fiasco, I helped players to get Dishu, Snort, and even Humar. Oh, and I helped one of our own guildies in Petopians get Snort.

[Teigan]

I hear you. I love matchmaking with rares. What a great story.

That was me if I remember correctly
