Patch 7.1 Mecha-spider on Alcaz Island

[Silivren]

Somebody get the gold one and name it Dwemer, it looks so much like the Dwener mecha-spiders in Skyrim! xD

[Kalliope]

We did it! Go team!



Thank you to Padwarle and Fangzs for helping with this guy!

• The Doctor DOES drop an Electrified Key, which makes the spiders interactive.
• The key is not BoP, so it could be traded/AHed.
• The key is consumed on use. Unsure if the spider stays up if it goes out of combat. We didn't try.
• Unsure if they all have the same abilities, but the golden one tried to cast a full heal twice (interruptable).

Basically, get a key, clear the area of hostiles (or pull the spider to one, in the case of Goldie here), dps down to 30%, collect pet. <3

Since it's unsafe to get a good look usually, here are a few more pics from other views:

I really love the design of these models, wonderful details!

[Kayb]

Dammit. I'm really against mech pets and gnome hunters, but I already caved and got the robo sheep, lol. Now I'll have get one of these spiders too. Sigh.

[Rawr]

Now if only they would give mech pets an ability like "Oil Spill- Spills oil on a target reducing movement speed by 50% for 6 sec, 10 sec cooldown, Melee Range" (I put it in line with the crocolisk ability) or something. They are giving us new models that took time but all they are good for is looking pretty in Dala

[Kalliope]

Oh yeah, in terms of surrounding trash:

• Copper is in the open, surrounded by non-elites, but an elite does patrol by the area.
• Silver is in an underground cell by itself, following a long corridor of non-elites. ( )
• Gold is in a broken tower, sandwiched between two elite guards and one of the turrets.

I kind of wish the spider to be a lot smaller post tame.

But this is kinda nice too
I mean goblins made nutz, but gnomes made weaponized bunny.
An evil goblin made iron juggernaut, but an evil gnome made mech spiders.

I like the size. It looks imposing, and it's a mech. And hot damn, yes, having a mech spider pet on one hand, and an Iron Juggernaut on the other would make a sweet team if you use the Hati essence swapper.

Furthermore, I was extremely frustrated in the Burning Crusade, when I saw the Maexxna model spiders, tried to tame them, only to find out they were tiny.

Long respawn timers? Long respawn on the key mob?

[Kalliope]

Nope! All respawn timers were pretty quick. Maybe 5-10, tops? That includes the deadly, deadly trash.

So long as you're not accidentally pulling the guard dog from upstairs (easier said than done with Hatis around), it's easy enough to camp out with the doctor and keep killing him with a small group until he yields his keys.

[Lupen202]

Anyone else reminded of skyrim by these spiders?





I love the gold one.

[Quiv]

WTF DID I JUST MISS these look sweet!

[Rhyela]

Okay, I was not really interested in taming mechanicals on Rhyela...until now. These are awesome!

[zedxrgal]

WTF DID I JUST MISS these look sweet!

RIGHT!!! I haven't been on here in like two days and look what I missed!

Holy $hit. I need these in my life. Especially the silver. My gnome hunter needs one all these.

And holy ................ you can make any pet oil covered?? *faints*

Includes minipets! So it's not just a toy for pet classes.

Also, there's another item that lets you cover all of your pets in yellow goop like the drudge gnomes in the area.

I've added images for the new mechaspiders but haven't added the new NPCs to the database yet. Same with the green mechanowolf.

See the spiders section on the Mechanicals famly page:

NO WAY!?!?!?!? Dang. Legion the expansion that bankrupts my toons.

Nah, these items can drop from any mob in the area. They're quite plentiful, in part because they only last an hour, I imagine. But camping for a while and wiping out trash packs solo isn't a huge problem.

*sputters* I...I need that. So, 7.1 comes out now, yes? Immediately? Five minutes ago? I'll be leveling my gnome now.
