Welp, if I wasn't disconnecting constantly, I'd be all over this.
Wait wait wait.. that's awesome. Can you use the same trick for other friendly ones? Like the ones on the Windward Isle?
Also this toy is account bound, right?
Sadly, no. You can only use it in BfA content, which includes the Vale and Uldum during the assaults.
I totally forgot about that limitation. Argh. Well, the Rajani one is still pretty cool and unique.


WerebearGuy wrote: Tue Oct 13, 2020 11:08 pm There's some fear mongering in both that wowhead article's comments and on the secret finder discord, saying the toy isn't available anymore. I'm testing with someone right now to see if it is still available.
No indication that it would be removed. Will probably just be harder to get since there will be fewer people in BfA content once Shadowlands releases.

Kunchong for hunter pets!

Been unable to tame Guarm, but I saw other Hunters in Borallus with him. So I know he must be tameable somehow. Tried on Normal and Heroic, no dice. :( Any one else here better luck?

You have to tame the one found in the outdoor version of Helheim, not the raid.

It's tameable yes, but it's also bugged in that some of us can't tame it for whatever reason. I couldn't get it on several attempts.

I had the same problem with the Fel Steed

Edit-I just tamed a water serpent, which is a green python from voldun, and he is much smaller in size than the rest of the snakes

I had a already summoned when I was trying to tame on my hunter, but fixed it after summoning a pet and dismissing it, so I got all the undead I wanted

God, I hate that the stupid pvp toy is needed. I was cheated out of it multiple times at 9/10 kills, and now it has a purpose. Nobody with the knife is willing to help me see if you can aggro the Rajani warserpent off of the N'zoth player through healing them before they use the toy.

Okay. So summon a pet then dismiss? If I'm understanding right.

Edit: It's not working.

Confirmed that you can't steal aggro from someone that's using the toy in the vale. Aggro doesn't show up at all for you, as the NPC remains friendly. I wish people were helpful and made groups to get the knife toy still.

Interestingly enough, it's actually SMALLER then then it's mini pet counterpart. The left is the Elder Python mini pet, while the right is my actual serpent. It's even tiny on the log in screen.

This snake would be great for PVP, because barely anyone can see it anyway, all I need is to bring a big pet, like a mammoth or a clefthoof, and that way I can confuse the enemies that try going for my pets
