Worked through most of the people that added me earlier in the day with success, if anyone else wants some help I'll be up for a while longer. Either faction.

Helped with three crocs, two scorpions, three kung din, and a crane tonight. Just wanting to let everyone know all are still possible, so you still have time. :)

Also still doing this from full health, if you have the gear to pull off a big hit it is far easier. Shaving off hp from coldbite matriarth or the ik'thik scorpions takes a long time. You can just camp out right where they spawn, throw a trap, and go. No need to take hits without gear on.

HUGE thank you to Amber for helping me tonight, after many many many attempts the Matriarch finally cooperated. Now I have a second crocolisk, but there's no way I'm letting this one go, so I'll just have to have 2. :3

So I log in today and I see my Kung Din doesn't have a collar on him anymore... I was sad, but about 15-20sec after logging on it showed up again lol


I've been flying around and the Frostsaber Pride Watchers @ Winterspring leave footprints as they walk, I wonder if you can keep those.

I've had absolutely no luck with Kung Din after two nights of trying. :( How are people seeing the seconds (0.3, etc.) left in the tame? Is there an addon? I could use some aid Silver Hand horde side tonight or this weekend if anyone is available. PM me. I'd greatly appreciate any help, tips, etc. :)

EDIT: Tamed on the second try! Thank you so much for the help, Dialga! <3

We've pretty much established that all of the old appearance pets can be done, as there's no reason they would be unable to be obtained by this method. However, you cannot duel in the starting areas, so the tamer would have to be flagged, the helper the opposite faction and also flagged, and somehow the tauren lowbie, tamer, and sniper all on the same realm like what Amber was doing.

Many thanks to Dialga for helping me tame the Coldbite Matriarch on the 3rd or 4th try. Was really fast!

Okay, I need some help with that dang scorpid...
Tried to solo it a few times, it seemed to work once (needed to relog to get the pet to show, but it was it's normal amber skin...), then I gave some tries with my friend, but the timing was all over the place...
If anyone can help, I'm on right now (US, Moon Guard, Horde Tsuki#1571)

Anyone know if its possible to get the Kung Din after you've done the quest? If I remember right, it phases out. Also, does he lose the collar on death or not?

I've never had any phasing issues with him, and he definitely doesn't lose his collar.

If anyone Horde side needs more pets, let me know. My fingers and eyes are sharp as heck tonight, every attempt with people has been 5 tries or under. Kung only took two!

I had a streak last night where I went about three or four in a row one shot, but I lost the moment of clarity soon as Veph needed help... XD

Probably because it was nearing 5 am!
