Encountering 'cannot be tamed' when should be

Unread post by FeralBetaKitten »

Tsulong and Demonic Horses in SFK cannot be tamed, at least not by me. Keep getting an error even though it says tameable.

For some beasts you cannot tame them on Heroic difficulty. For others, they cannot be tamed no matter what. This has been a bug in the Beta for many months now and has been reported many times. From what is known, Blizz does not know exactly what is wrong and how to fix it.

You can also try raid finder versions wherever applicable. I was able to tame Elegon in the raid finder version of Mogushan Vaults earlier tonight.

Nope, just got one on normal. Reset it a few times, I think the shadow chargers and felsteeds share spawns.

Anyone know about Precious and Stinky? I've been trying to tame them on my Forsaken hunter. They're flagged tameable but I can't tame.

Tsulong tamed fine for me twice when I entered Terrace earlier. I think it was on normal though. https://media.discordapp.net/attachment ... height=469

Raid Finder Guarm is untameable (although he's listed as being tameable).
Going to try the other raid difficulties...

You have to tame Guarm in the "outside" version of Helheim (the non-raid version). I thought the same thing and failed, but Valnaaros pointed that out to me and it worked. :)

Are you able to tame the Corp'rethar Guardians? They wander around on various levels of the west walls just outside of the raid. If I remember right, the ones on the lower level were tameable, but I think there was an issue with the ones on the top level.

Precious and Stinky confirmed (again) tameable on Beta on Normal 10.

Edit: Same with Gluth. Normal 10. Will check on PTR as well.

Edit #2: Confirmed on PTR as well. Precious, Stinky, and Gluth are tameable on Normal 10 Player.

I haven't tried Corp'rethar yet, and i'm almost 100% sure its a scaling issue from normal to heroic dungeons.

That may be part of the problem, but it doesn't account for things on Normal difficulty not being tameable, such as Tsulong for the Alliance, and the Firelands Hell Hounds, including Riplimb and Rageface. They're flagged as tameable, but cannot be tamed on any difficulty.

Has anyone been able to tame the pigs in Waycrest Manor? They're supposed to be tameable and Beast Lore says they are, but I got an error when I tried. I had it set for normal and went in solo.

That's another example of the Instance Taming Bug, unfortunately. It's happening all over.

Oh I had no troubles getting mine on the same difficulty, these issues are frustratingly inconsistent.

Thanks. I'll try 10 man normal when it resets next week.

I was able to tame one yesterday. Sadly, it ended up having a pink skin after taming. I'd hoped it would keep the black one.
