so .. I was camping Krush .. like many others.
and tonight he finally spawns for me, I get nervous and mess up the first attempt ..
I eat to regain health and is about to head off to tame another trash pet when an ORC hunter swoops down and attacks him, RIGHT in front of me .. the <insert expression of choice here> kills him, loots and takes off .. not ONE word .. nothing ..

can you say first rate asshole?

Oh son of a _____!
A hunter! That takes the GD cake!
I'm so sorry that happened to you. Hunt the bastige down...

haha anyone think we should have a "I allmost had him" sub forum?

not only a hunter .. a HORDE hunter .. an orc ..

glad someone is amused .. I sure as hell am not

Oh man. Someone of my kind had to be a loser to you? I oughta punt him/her.

I dont blame you. Id be pissed too. Or I was pissed when it happened 6 hours ago with Skoll. But I can see why ur pissed that it was a hunter. they should know better

Can't even write it off as cross-faction griefing (which is still Class A Asshattery), since it was Horde. That makes it even worse.

Aw man! I'm sorry to hear that.

All I can say is, it is possible he didn't see you there. You didn't have him tagged at the time, perhaps he was looking to do frostbitten and just didn't take the time to look around to see if someone was looking to tame? I know I know, it still hurts.

If this forum has taught me anything, though, it's that you're always doomed to fail the first couple of Krush tame attempts. He'll be yours.

Tbh I hate people who try and dismiss cross faction asshatery. Like, it's only a douchebaggery act when you destroy someone's tame of your own faction. Even I never do that, I mean what's the point? You just come off as an ignorant asshole punk who has nothing better to do than ruin someone elses game and life for a short period of time. But then again these are probably the same people who camp Crossroads and other lowbie quest hubs for hours and days on end because they fail to realize a little thing called Real Life.

Mean I had a discussion with one once and he told me 'lol I was just bored' so I throw out if you're bored why not go read a book, go outside, go hang out with friends. See a movie, watch TV, or hell go stare at the sun. He gave me a verbal expression of boggling at someone with 3 heads. So I frankly told him he was a childish idiot who would never advance to anything and ignored him.

Blizzard really need to change the code so that when you use Tame Beast it tags it as your target and thus as a gray target to anyone else. That this does not happen is technically in opposition to the tagging rules which indicate that any action which causes a mob to attack you tags it as your target. But Tame Beast seems to not count here which needs to be fixed.
That of course won't stop anyone from killing your desired pet just to be a griefer but it removes the incentive of getting an achievement or loot.

I've just given up ..
Things like this will never stop unless blizzard changes the whole taming process greatly .. which will never happen ..

so I'm off to find and retame Gondria on said hunter.

ty for your imput everyone.

Huh, sounds like the douche who auto-attacked Arc down right in front of me, no pet and no reply. :[ He just sat there for another five minutes before disappearing (most likely to log off), and I was tempted to whisper anyone in his guild to yell at the asshat.
(And yeah, he was an orc as well.)

Yes, this was on Deathly. My little trolly hunter is obviously not high enough level for Arc yet. cx

Wow I am sorry that happened to you! I hate when people do that and the sad thing is that its so common its scary. I don't know what is up with people who do that. They seem to find much joy and pleasure in doing that and King krush seems to be the biggest target out there for some reason. I actually had that happen to me the first time I attempted to tame King krush. While I was going to tame another pet to try again some Alliance death knight just comes and kills him. He saw me trying to tame him so I cant say that it was because he didnt know I was trying to and I even told him. It still meant nothing. But you know hun there is always hope as well. Actually had a druid alliance who helped me. He found king krush and didnt kill and a priest went out of his way to help me tame him. And as well I saw Skoll spawned and told my hunter friend. While I was waiting for her to come and hunter came and attacked him. I told her that my friend wanted to tame him and she let herself die. So while some people can be a bag of douche there are still those out there who have some compassion about what we do.
If you really want him I say don't give up. You will find him! The best time seems to be in the early AM when there is less of a hassle out there with people. The less people on the better in my view lol.

Exact same thing happened to me first time waiting for my Yoshi... was of my own faction, I had King Krush tagged he killed anyways, his reason, "I need for the cheesement." O_o

All you can do is try, try again; because 10hrs later at 10:30pst I had my Yoshi.

That's the biggest pile of dung I've heard in a long time though. In what world does he get the achievement by killing a mob TAGGED BY SOMEONE ELSE????? *sigh*
