I think I'm supposed to tame Skol....

In the past 2 or so weeks...

I've released Skol to tame something else.
Tamed him again after that experiment.
Release him again for a bug
Killed him since no other hunters were around (and needed for the achievement)
Killed him again (it was either me or a DK that was zooming in)

And today helped a space-goat hunter tame him. Thankfully there was someone around this time that could tame him. She almost died in the process, she didn't use a freezing trap. Tried to give her a bit of advice, but I suspect it was a kid playing. Regardless, a new hunter has Skol. :D

But I'm seeing him so much while looking for TLPD... I wonder if it's meant to be?..

Skoll isn't linked to any achievements, but since he's a rare it's commonly assumed that he is. ;)

If you feel like you should still have him then maybe give him another try? Do some dungeons with him and just spend more time with him out and see if there's a bond there. Sometimes you don't realize how much you miss a pet until you let them go.

Ok, thought he was part of Frostbitten. Guess he isn't. (Maybe he spawns more frequently?) In any case, if I decide to drop the Arcticulus (or however you spell that) I'll give him another go.. (on that note, I see the spirit-bear isn't part of the achievement either).

Just saw him again, but a horde DK killed him before I could direct a fellow hunter to him..

If you want to find Skol, just camp for TLPD...

What's funny is Skoll seems easier to get then Loque or Krush.

So are you going to tame him again and keep him?

Not yet.. decided I'm going to need a tanking pet to go and farm for the ZG mounts, so I'm gonna drop the Spirit bear for one of the gold worms... (I'm really liking the blue-black trex, and I have the sholo trio, so don't don't what else to do.. :-P I haven't had the Spirit Bear out in months, so....)

And I'm gonna scale back a bit from camping TLPD, so I might not see Skol again for a while.. :D Remove the temptation.. :D

How I wish we had 3 more stable slots...

Bah... I couldn't release IceCube, it must be my newly found dwarvish heart, I couldn't release a spirit bear. don't know what to do now.. I need one more slot, lol. Might have to release the Blue-Black Trex since I know I can find him again..

But could you release him?..

Yaaay!!! Boars are one of the best pets in WoW, hands-down. Grats on your new wiggly pet! :3

How do you get your screenshots to look so nice ? Anytime I've taken one they never come out as nice as they look when I take it.

Most likely he uses photobucket or something to shrink them. You see, .jpg files are HORRIBLE in quality...

I've noticed my screen shots look like trash when I view them.
