I one shot it at 698 item level, but was super close. I derped a bit on flaring her, so she kinda kicked my butt a little. Some other players showed up and helped me finish the last 5% on her, tho.

I kinda rushed in head first, so I didn't have all my bindings set up, hence the derping on the flaring her stealth.

Can you fight her with friends? Or is it a solo scenario sort of deal?

People can help you. Not sure if she'll drop a vial for everyone in the group or just one though. She respawns quick anyway. Solo scenario would've been more interesting, but I still think it's neat. :D

True, best if it was a scenario of some kind. Still, though, even if you do it with a group, it only speeds up the process. If you don't adhere to the rules of the fight, she'll still wreck you with her Blessing of Fallen King.

She isn't group loot or open tag. I showed up when Bendak was fighting her and she was gray, and didn't drop anything for me.

Congrats Qraljar! :D What a neat addition for hunters. I'm really happy for all of those who have been waiting for the fel green model!

(yes I'll admit I was hoping for something besides a wolf but I'm honestly not complaining, I love these secret challenge tames!)

This does give me hope for more interesting tames in the future, not that I wouldn't mind another track tame too.

This is definitely more fun than camping a spot for hours or days.

What I like is how it gets you to use your full hunter toolkit. Master's Call, Bestial Wrath, Counter Shot, Tranquilizing Shot, Concussive Shot, Binding Shot, Traps... all encouraged to be used.

By the way, killed it twice in a group of 2 hunters and only one vial dropped. Respawn was consistently about 5 mins.

I watched the QnA with Watcher, and he mentioned there were some with "passion projects" that took special time to do, mentioned some even came in on weekends. While I believe the direct context was the S.E.L.F.I.E. camera, the challenging hunter tames was also mentioned.

So if this Felwolf (and Gara for that matter) falls into this catagory, someone coming in on extra time to work on this because of a passion for it, I want to say a special thank you. Feels good having someone with our passion!

That would probably be Muffinus, or Noah, as he's know to some around these parts..

I really am happy with all the attention we've gotten :P Seems like both Hunters and warlocks have been getting some neat new things. Green fire, new demon models, unique taming methods.

Maybe one day we can have a quest like the Green fire, allowing us to tame an entirely new family. *cough*dread ravens or pterrorwings*cough*

Yes! <3 It's so wonderful to have these taming mysteries to solve and find. I really love the unique challenge it adds to pets like this. :D Feels more immersive than just a long camp.

And all it's cost us so far is well-designed tier armor.... :D /Jokes
