Overfester Hydra NOT tameable

Unread post by Rabenschrey »

Hey Guys,

i just tried to tame the Overfester Hydra ("Eitrige Hydra" in german) but it isn't tameable despite its entry says it is. Double checked on wowhead and one user already wrote, that it isn't tameable. Just wanted to let you know @Wain :)

Weird, it was tameable on beta. Oh well, at least it isn't a unique look. I don't think it retained its name either on beta (most don't for some reason). Maybe there was some kind of bug with it being tamed, and that's why they changed it? Or maybe it got unflagged by accident at some point? We'll probably never know.

Resident exploiter/bug finder that is currently looking for a bug that can safely be shared to tame unintended pets.

Found a bug? Contact me so I can investigate; it's likely far worse a bug than what you think.

For proof that I'm not making things up, feel free to look at my Blusky account; @campaigner.bsky.social

Minor achievement; my group got six nasty exploits fixed on May 12th! Super satisfying.

It must have been a late change. I'll change the entry in our database. Thanks for reporting it!

At least it's not unique!

No worries :) Curious if the other florafaun rare/named Hydras from the older expansions are tameable or if they changed, too. Maybe later in the day i try one or another and report back.
