Can confirm that the tallstrider i have tamed a couple of hours ago has lost his enraged effect after death, testing the raptor now.
edit: enraged raptor lost his effect after death too
Testing the flame:D
edit2: My flaming friend remains unchanged after death:)

I'm down here futzing around, and the seeds till make them go boom and they're still tameable (the mobs, I don't have anyone with me to try the actual process with).
But I don't know if the restarts have rolled around. 10 PDT really is an odd time for them do do it, right when a lot of people are playing. Especially when they PLAN to do it at a common time instead of say, 5 a.m.

No luck on taming it though,

Just helped a friend tame one at 10:03 PDT - and then the server restart sign came on. Wish you luck, everyone.

I can almost get it.
The raptor dies as the tame goes off but I just tame a dead raptor.
Anyone got any tips?

reset may have made them untamable

I got it. 30 seconds before the server restart showed up.

Are you hitting Revive Pet as it completes?
Edit--ahh, never mind. Serves me right, leaving a reply window awhile before hitting Submit

UPDATE
My friend says the Steamwheedle Cartel server has already gone down - and my pet's still flaming!

In addition, the mobs still explode with the seeds, but I don't have room to try taming the raptors or striders, though BL says they're tameable - but so does Garwal, so I don't know.

Managed to get it on two of my hunters before the restart.

it could be that the raptors are still tamable, but you can't tame them as flames anymore

My server just got reset, and is back up now, I can confirm that I still have my fire patch.
Can we get a confirm on whether or not they're tameable AFTER the reset?

I tamed a raptor for myself today, and my fiance tamed one for him. We are on EU-Servers and didn't have a hotfix or patch or something - restarts are tonight for us. We did a dungeon with them and the fire lasts trough death of pet. We got a lot of questions where we have these pets from, but I didn't tell them, because we don't know if people will be as responsible as we are (not visiting BG with theses pets). We just told them they are rapotors which exploded out of fury of being tamed
I'm adding a pic of Grinch (my flame) and Flämmchen (fiance's flame, meaning littel flame in German) and one of Grinch and Findu visiting Dante (he fits well into molten front).
Off topic: does anybody know, if the angered Arrakoa Protector keeps his glow is he dies? Or does he become "normal" ghostly pet?

He keeps his glow, I believe.

It does....BUT....it will not be as bright or full as it was before death. It does stay however. :3 A smaller mist aura after death is better then no mist at all!
