Eh it's just a buff they stay with, IF folks make a huff about it, it will either be removed (the buff) & it'll be a regular ol' northrend worg, or they'll let folks keep it, who knows. Grats on folks who get theirs.

The whole thing really reminds me of the ghostwolf, so my guess is that Blizz will fix it but let people who have it keep it. But we can never be sure.
But I'm not going to get one because even though it looks cool I could never get over the fact that my poor pet is drenched in oil. D:

After figuring out the timing - right about 7 seconds (and after I stopped failing by throwing the meat after the wolf was trapped), we finally got my hubby his unique lil' wolf, Shadow!!! It took about 10 times for us to get the timing right and such, but he thinks it was worth it to be unique.
Grats babe!!!

I think I still have the quest, if anyone on Dawnbringer needs help. I can't tame - no pet slots open - but I can help y'all <3

Wouldn't it be obvious if you asked in trade if someone hasn't done "Lupus Pupus"? Guess one would ask: "Someone who hasn't completed all of the Borean Tundra quests" maybe.
Guess I'll be looking around on Steamwheedle Cartel then for my other hunter if anyone has an alliance there willing to help, shoot me a PM please.

DONT WASTE MONEY ON POTS!
set trap
shoot
once trapped, be about 10-20 feet away from wolf
wait until 7-9 seconds let (depending on haste, trial and error is the way to go here)
throw bait, hit tame beast immediately
adjust accordingly, it took me about 15 tries to get it right.
Make sure to watch the trap tick down on the mob too, helps. I hit mine at about 7 O clock (if you think of the timer as a clock dial)

Hey Tilo, I still have the quest meats if you want me to help you.

I will be gone until about Sunday afternoon, however, as the hubby and I are going out of town for little bit.
But if you still need help when I get back, I would be more than happy to!
Edit: The toon with the quest is my priest, Lysende.

ah thank you much for the offer I'd have to bounce one of my exotics for it, so was considering Steamwheedle Cartel instead, where my other hunter is at, whom' has an extra slot for such an oily gooey wolfy ^^ Regardless thanks though for the offer

hunter= set trap a few paces away. quest person(desnt matter if hunter is horde or alliance) stand a pace or two back form the trap. and uses the meat. wolf is pulled, into the trap. i started the tame around 8.5 seconds left but thats doing it as a lvl 73 with almost no haste. takes some trial and error but you will get it dont worry.
