got deth today

Unread post by Demonium »

everytime i go into MF i quickly pop a eagle eye on deths spawn since my npc scan doesnt show the new rares. well today there he was. but he was all blue as if a mage was attacking him. and he had very low hp. i thought meh. i had deth stolen from me other day and skitter before that. its time for real payback. i get to deth and see him reset. his attacker was dead. i pull and the longest and most boring tame process ensues. a hunter arrives and said it was his and that i was moody for taking it. im sorry kids but if you dont read the tactics on how to tame these then tough luck. you cant just run in and hit tame anymore. i had the pain of having 2 rares stolen from me in a matter of days and krush killed while i was taming all through wotlk. so im taking this.

so i got him. i wish it was the hunter who stole my skitterflame moaning at me because that would be utter justice getting payback. im 3rd on realm to have him, i think. not sure how though. the realm first was the hunter who stole it from me. the 2nd deth i saw was today making me believe he was tamed today and respawned fast. also i think blizzard needs to remove banthalos rare tag. you cant seriously call a rare a rare if it spawns more than 4 times in 1 day. i was kind enough to kite it down to the mountain for a belf hunter to tame. she seemed happy for it.

i named him Skitter in remembrance of Skitterflame, the spider that got away (ninjad.).

I had to manually add the new rares to my NPC_Scan. But anyways, I'm glad you got Deth, I've been camping him since the release and a Worgen was the server first for Deth to be tamed over on Zul'Jin. He was there first and therefore deserved him. The other day I had logged into seeing the corpse of my beloved Deth, for this I was severely pissed. I had found out it was one of the Alliance guilds [who I've always hated since moving over to ZJ] that killed him... Me being a Hordie got together a raid group and did For The Horde just to have pay back. Deth's death was avenged that day. I only play Alliance on Mannorth because A: I hate the majority of the Horde players on that server and B: The majority of Alliance players on Zul'Jin are assholes. Doesn't mean all, but majority. When I do get my hands on Deth I shall name him Exdeath, in remembrance of my friend who died in Japan. The reason for this is because his favorite villain from Final Fantasy was Exdeath. I had found out last month that his body was never found but his family had held the memorial due to his body never being found since the disaster happened. Hiroshi and I were child hood friends and I shall honor him by naming the one spider [which I'm terrified of spiders in real life] that I want so bad, by naming him Exdeath.

I do hope you and your new pet, Skitter get revenge someday on the jerk who stole your Skitterflame from you. Lok'tar ogar my friend!

Some say Legion will be the downfall of WoW, I disagree. WoD was the downfall and Legion will be there to raise WoW from the dead.

I finnaly found him last night
and no hunter or other people in sight so i tried to kite and tame it, had some failures and some nasty resets at 50/30 % etc >_>

so i move back for a other try started pulling all of a sudden i get invited by a paly and druid so i thought they wanted to help me since they saw me trying to kite and tame it.

so we get deth down to 20% after the the immune taming buff falls of i try to tame it dint have any aggro on it so taming keeps failing and the two people just keep attacking and bringing down deths health so I kindly ask them to stop what there doing and no response.
15%, 10% and I am desperately trying to grab aggro on the mob with the realization that I most likely lose the tame and death with it.

at 4% I somehow managed to grab deths aggro and spam tame beast like crazy luckily I dropped a trap in front of it and manage to pull off the tame the moment deth moves in front of my face nearly killing me XD.

I still don't know for 100% if they were seriously trying to kill it in front of my face but the lack of gratz and the fact I got dropped out of the group without a word makes me believe so.
On the other hand if they did try to kill it one could have just suicided to take of the last 4% or perhaps they din't know deth takes of 10% if someone gets deth striked in that case i got damn lucky :S
I really cant understand why people need to be such a douse bags.

thank god it ended up oke after all.

I managed to tame Deth for a second time on Tuesday morning. I tamed him last week with the help of a hunter guildie, who sacrificed his pet for the cause while I kept aggro with Serpent Sting, Concussive Shot and Snake/Ice Trap.

However, I decided to try and solo tame Deth for the challenge and I found him lurking behind the Forlorn Spire on Tuesday morning. After about 4 deaths (two of which were from Disengaging off the edge not getting my bearings right :\) I arrived at my corpse to be greeted by a gnome warlock attacking Deth. Not sure if he was helping me after seeing me fail or actually trying to kill him, I went about my job and managed to get aggro near the 20% mark and started taming...only to see my attempts unsuccessful - I forgot to dismiss my pet doh - so I do and one Tame Beast cast later Deth was mine again.

Ok so it wasn't exactly a solo tame second time around but I feel better about it as I had to work for the tame.

Around 8:58pm EST on Illidan this evening, Deth'Tilac was given a new home!

It really meant a lot to me to get him, for this was my second attempt. The first was sabotaged by a rowdy group of players that only wanted to see what poor Dethy dropped when he died. I had tagged it and was kiting flawlessly, but I made the mistake of bringing it around the wall into the open for those idiots to see it. All I was left with was the Tear of Loyalty, but it kept me motivated to come back again and again for Dethy.

So tonight after some BGs and an overall 3-4hr camp time, he appeared! I was alone so I was sure he'd be mine this time. Tagged and started the kiting process. Things were going well until I got myself caught in a bad corner and while trying to sneak past him, I got caught by Death Strike. On the way back to my corpse I was sure someone else had started the tame by now, and I deserved to lose my chance at glory after messing up the tame. But I rezzed only to find Dethy standing right where he started, reset and ready to take me on a third time. Wasn't gonna screw it up now.

We danced back and forth across the platform, me around pillars, him over my traps, (entrapment is a godsend for this tame btw) but I was starting to get back into the corner I was in before, so around 30% I brought him out from behind the pillar where some players were. This time, no griefing. They all just watched. One last Death Strike on my fodder pet and he was ready for taming. LONGEST 9 SECONDS OF MY LIFE! Was certain he was going to reach me and kill before the cast was up, but all was well; I conquered the challenge and welcomed DethT to my stable :D
