Got Deth with warlock help

Unread post by Sarantha »

Just wanted to share this taming story that was pretty awesome. Deth'tilac spawned on top of me, didn't aggro or anything luckily, so I backed up and hit him with concuss shot after dropping snakes and ice trap. I was doing the kiting dance required to tame him when a fellow hordie warlock drops in and decides to help dps. This little undead lock somehow kept aggro on Deth the whole time and kited him around while I dps'd the shiz outta Deth. A horde rogue came in a bit late to try and help, but I still appreciated the gesture from both of them. I thanked the lock profusely for making the tame shorter and paid him 2k. He kept insisting I not pay him, but I told him I was gonna mail it to him if he didn't take it, so it paid off for both of us. I got my badarse purple spider and he got some extra gold.

For the alliance people that were dpsing Deth too, I have no idea whether to be glad they were there or not, because I have no idea whether they were helping or trying to be dbags and kill him. Luckily I had a haste pot for the tame so I tamed him well before he would have died.

An interesting thing that might help others tame Deth, I helped an alliance guildie get Deth using my draenei DK to constantly spam chains of ice on him to keep him rooted. The hunter tamed him almost effortlessly. Having a pocket DK almost makes this not a challenge at all.

Sweet, knew this would work, just haven't seen stories of it. :)

Grats on your Deth!

Druid roots also work, so do rogue stuns, as long as the rogue is smart enough to gtfo once he's done his thing.
