Looooong time lurker, first time poster here on the new "forums" although i used to post on the old one sometimes aswell as on mania blog.
I can say i am a very pet lover, i love my pets as much as i love my hunter (or maybe even more) and i love to go and hunt the pets i like, although i have many rare or hard to get pets (loque, krush, sambas, ukloc, jadefang lord kri etc) i am not a true rare hunter but i just love to have the pets i like more (which usually happen to be rare pets but not always, like i prefer my red fox more than the ashtail colouring etc) and the first thing i did when getting to 85 was to level immediatly my entire (full) stable... but anyway i disgress, we are here to speak about mr Scorpion Madexx!
At first i wasn't really sure if i wanted him/her or not, but after seeing it more carefully i found myself quite found of it and decide to go and start the hunt.
I didn't have much luck with him since it was never there when i had the time to go and look around his spawn points...until yesterday when he finally decided to show up.
He spawned with the red colour on a plateau north of the buried statue, although i'd love to have him brown i decided to tame him anyway...sadly it didn't go too well.
As i was finishing my tame a blood elf paladin landed next to where i was and proceeded to stun and kill me. I rushed back as fast as i could but needles to say madexx had been killed.
I never felt so griefed in 5 years of playtime

Anyway i just wanted to share my story with you all, hoping that posting here may bring me some luck...who knows maybe next time mr Huge Scorpid may even spawn brown...
Best of luck to all of you who are (like me) still looking to tame this awesome aracnid!
