4 deaths by Green Fire, 3 by Disengaging off the cliff, and with sub-10,000 HP left, Kirix was finally mine tonight.

I'm not entirely sure, but everyone that tried it while I was doing the legit Kirix method evade bugged then got stunned and poisoned to death.

Yeah and those who did the rock method...their tame could complete but they wouldn't have him either. But those who did it legitly on his ledge would get him no problem.Gimlion wrote:I'm not entirely sure, but everyone that tried it while I was doing the legit Kirix method evade bugged then got stunned and poisoned to death.

I think if you shoot to pull him to you he will evade when you're done taming (thus not able to tame). I vainly tried this myself and after about 8 deaths (and watching 2 other hunters die multiple times as well) ~ I pulled him with hitting Tame Beast instead of shooting and that worked just fine.Jessibelle wrote:I've been told by several hunters on my server that the rock method has been hotfixed.

Even that hasn't worked for hunters now on the rock. He still evades and then kills you. I watched several hunters try.Royi wrote:I think if you shoot to pull him to you he will evade when you're done taming (thus not able to tame).

Thats because they're doing it wrong.Jessibelle wrote:Even that hasn't worked for hunters now on the rock. He still evades and then kills you.

Maybe that's true, but the one hunter I did watch try the rock method died about 8 times while I was there-he even tried his tame on the actual island beyond the rocks and (needless to say) failed, so I'd say the hotfix has the rocks mostly covered.Saige wrote:Shoot him to pull he will evade for a few then he will cast his poison, use a macro for detterence and tame(click on it as soon as you see his cast bar appear) and he will be yours before he can cast again.
I was incredibly derp and didnt read the instructions here carefully, but if the '#' could be changed to an actual '3' then maybe others derping like me won't screw this tame up. 3 freezing traps FTL4. Place an ice trap in front of him and he should get safely to the right tameability (you can use another freezing trap, but be prepared to break him out of it ASAP. I prefer ice trap just because its more then enough needed. 2 freezing traps will get him to 20, you only need to get him to 18 to tame) # freezing traps unless your fast enough will kill him.
I'll trade... xP All that ever spawns for me is Magria... after 8 rehomes, you kinda get sick of blue...Snowbird wrote:Damn i would really like to have Magria!! But Ankha issnt to bad either! But Magria looks alot better i must say! ^^
Still works. Tamed Kirix this morning on Draka (US). I died a few times trying the 'legit' way, so I looked up the other way. I didn't use a macro or had any haste buffs (although I should have), the first time I tagged him, waited for his cast, popped deterrence and then tame, I was about 1 second from finishing and he cast his poison again, stunned me and I died. But my next attempt I was able to hit deterrence and tame and finish it off. So the rock method still works, but a macro and some haste buffs will definitely go along way in making this easier. I stood on the rock that has the thermal up to FP ridge, for what it's worth.Saige wrote:Shoot him to pull he will evade for a few then he will cast his poison, use a macro for detterence and tame(click on it as soon as you see his cast bar appear) and he will be yours before he can cast again.
