What does this mean for us tame-crazy hunters? Well, theoretically if everybody leaves the raid except for one person, they will not be saved to any boss that one person goes on to kill or tame. So, if all goes well, we can get a raid of Petopain hunters together, flatten the rest of BWL, have everybody leave the instance and drop the raid, then start getting people in there seperately and taming their very own Chromaggus. It may be that we'll need to wait some time for the instance to soft reset after we initially drop group, but everyone will get a chromaggus this way.
I'd scrap that idea. If you checked the official info, the new Flex Raid Lock system only applies to all WotLK Raids. Not to TBC/Classic ones.

They are, and will, always have only 1 Raid ID shared by all members, where boss kills are indeed locked by the ID, not by the player. Each raid group in BWL gets 1 Chromaggus tame only. Same goes for AQ40 tames of the Lord Kri, Princess Yauj, Vem, and Princess Huhuran. Sorry, but it is the way of things.

This is incorrect afaik. If you only tame them ONE AT A TIME- the bosses should reset. Ergo, someone tames Vem, everyone else remains FD, hunter dismisses or let pet die, the bosses reset, Vem should respawn even if he's been tamed. As I'm sure someone already tamed Kri, bugged out, no pun intended, and the boss had respawned.

So aslong as people are patient, IN THEORY, they should all get their brain bugs from AQ atleast.

that aside:

About chromaggus i wanna take some guildie hunters with me but if we start killing bosses than we get a raid id and are locked,
but i guess that if you tame Chromaggus hes not actually killed so he respawns again? as normally if you leave a raid with the same id and u enter again and a tamed Chromaggus is concidered as a kill it will announce u that u will get saved to an instance with those bosses killed.
i tried but cant find any posts about raid lockout and taming Chromaggus. Anyone allready checked that here?
I will tell you now...

No. He does NOT respawn. Once he's gone, he's gone for the raid.

Yauj controls the encounter. Tame or kill her, and it will not reset.
