WoW Petopia Community

Well! I have been using these forums to track, seek, and learn about all the lovely pets in WoW for quite a long time, but until now I've never joined or made a post! But, with my tame of the Oil-Stained worg, I figure its about time, right?

Heres a picture of my new wolfy.

Wolves are probably my favorite pet, for whatever reason. I just like wolves of all kinds. This is one of my favorite, I saw someone on my server walk through Stormwind with it the other night, and tonight set out on my quest to tame it! It took maybe a couple hours between looking up all the info and giving various methods a try. I'm pretty excited to have this awesome looking pet. Now he just needs a worthy name!

This was tamed only days after I also got Karoma, another wolf I spent quite a while eyeing before I was able to get it. Got Sambas right after him too. o_o

I do wonder though, I know people have said taking this pet into the Arena will ruin his oily coat. But, is it the same for Battlegrounds? I don't want to try, since I really don't wanna have to try and tame one again, heh.

Anyways, thanks everyone for all the helpful info posted here!

Yeah, I wish i could tell you if it's ok to take one into a Battleground, but sadly, I don't wanna try to retame one either, lol. if you find out the answer, lemme know too!
I named mine "Nox", after a character from a series by Piers Anthony.

I actually have an OC character whos name is Nox, but I didn't even think of naming him this! Good choice!

Nice!! its cool. i have never figured out how to get it to keep he coat after the tame :S

If you go digging around on these forums, theres a few posts about how to get it. I've already lost all the links for it, but I know they're there! Basically you need to get a certain quest called Lupus Pupus to get a bait that you can use to make the wolf go neutral, and you basically need to time your tame to end at the exact moment this bait's cooldown ends. Its tricky, and it will take a lot of tries before you get it, but I think its well worth it!

I just got a message back from Zeilla8 on YT who has a video on how to tame this wolf, and she says you can do anything you want with him ASIDE FROM Rated BG and Arena. Anything else should be fine! I'm gonna brave it to test the advice, since she seems to know what she is talking about
