What it could simply be is a pet that hunter got and we missed. With the Gorishi Grub and the Amberworm, they were both flagged tameable because they were spawned from another mob. Could be some hunter who wasn't one of us figured out to try that yellow larva from AQ and nabbed it, and it was simply mass-reverted to untameable again when Blizzard fixed the spawn-tame code concerning the Grub and Amberworm.erictks1 wrote:Too bad, that's the most likely candidate I found so far .

Re: Yellow Larva worm
Maybe there is another possibility is some spawned pet is being missed , in new expansion , we can almost one shot any NPC in the old one , some may don't even have chance to spawn. Unless u wanna try out all spawning NPC in game . Maybe there is one.

Re: Yellow Larva worm
I doubt it. With thousands of hunters, it would've been caught by now. Not everything is some secret hidden exploit.
Re: Yellow Larva worm
It's not impossible, but all larva model worms in the game have been checked previously (using Wowhead as a guide of which are in the game and then checking the tame in person). Both old and BC model larvae were checked. So if there is a tameable yellow it's either a recent addition/change or it was completely overlooked. Not impossible, just less likely.

Re: Yellow Larva worm
That's not proving anything other that they can't be tamed... If you're trying to say the yellow worm model exits in the game, we knew that already. :/ There's no reason to be pushy and demand we hurry and find one that is tameable. If there is one that is tameable, it'll eventually be found, or fixed, whichever happens first. If it requires an exploit to tame, no one here should be expected to throw away their account to confirm it's tameability.

Re: Yellow Larva worm
If blizzard wrongly flag and we tame it , they going to ban us ? Anyway will continue to hunt for the worm. Actually I don't think we can exploit the tamable flag, if anyone figure how to do so please share .

Re: Yellow Larva worm
I feel erictks1 you may be missing the point. Exploiting in the game IN ANY FORM is against Blizzard's ToS and is a banable offense. The worms you posted a SS of has been known about since 2009 (added in WotLK) and is not and never has been tamable. I am not sure why you're continuing to try and find an exploit tame or something that is unknown currently on live except maybe to get more attention to yourself etc.
Regardless both my horde and alliance guild goof off in old content very very regularly and even when I am out and about EVERY beast is lored just for $&*#'s and giggles and have not come across anything new. I am 98% sure I am not the only hunter out there doing this REGULARLY. Spawned beast or otherwise. Hell I even check cows, sheep whichever just cause ................ well you never know. But the yellow maggot IS NOT tamable and never has been.
As said, the OP has not come back on to clarify /answer questions as to where in LFR the worm was even seen. I am at this point 98% sure they saw a gorishi grub in lighting that made it look yellow. Which can be very easily done with raid lighting, spells going off around the beasts etc.
And this. 1000%.

Re: Yellow Larva worm
Ericks, that's....nothing new. We already saw those. They've never been tameable. I also agree with the above. No one should be risking their account just to get an exploit. You'll find we're very against exploits here on Petopia...in fact even a lot of non-Petopians hate people that exploit the game. It's why we can't have nice things 99% of the time. An active exploiter ruins the fun for everyone else and the chances of something becoming real.

Re: Yellow Larva worm
They will not ban someone over a mistaken flag (otherwise I'd be banned for having the two maggots). What they WILL ban someone for is trying to exploit the game. Like the appearance buff pets. There were certain buffs that were not JUST VISUAL. They actually did damage upon being hit, which was exploited by less than savory people, in PvP and dungeons/raids. They were pulling insane dps off of this method, and once Blizzard found out about it, they banned the exploiters, and completely revamped how wild beasts' visual effects were applied. This is why there are NO MORE appearance buffs that can be "exploited" so the tamed beast keeps it. As I said before, it's not just some gimmick, it's not some legend, it's not a joke. There are none left. Trying to "find ways" to tame certain mobs can be considered an exploit, too.erictks1 wrote:If blizzard wrongly flag and we tame it , they going to ban us ? Anyway will continue to hunt for the worm. Actually I don't think we can exploit the tamable flag, if anyone figure how to do so please share .
As for the grubs, again, as we have said multiple times, if there is some slim chance that one escaped the original fix in patch 5.2, it would have been found by now. If no one here has found it, there is a very high chance it does not exist. That does not mean we don't try to find these things, but no one here is going to throw away all their hard work on a wild goose chase. Blizzard won't ban someone for finding a mistake tame, again, but we also are NOT going to poke around with things we know are against ToS to find it. The most anyone should be expected to do is Beast Lore any yellow maggots they happen across while playing, but demanding that everyone goes out of their way to find an untameable is rather... rude.
If someone here finds it, we find it, and will report back with location(s), name, whatever, so others can get one before it's fixed (we don't agree with being greedy and hiding the facts from other members to get attention).
