I'm looking for some assistance on decreasing the cast time for Tame Beast, as my friend has recently been ninja'd of his Arcturis by a fellow Alliance hunter who was jealous (he distracting shot + tame, but I killed the bear to stop the thief). I remember a while back that the cast time could be shortened to less than 2 seconds (IE, for the spirit wolf), but I cannot find that tip anywhere.
Being as how we're both 80's, we have access to everything pre-ICC, and we're both rich enough to afford most things that aren't over 6k.

Potion of Haste, Berserking (the effect, available from various trinkets, and of course the racial), switch to a special set of +Haste gear, haste gems, various enchants, Windfury totem (I think windfury is the casting speed one).
All I can think of ATM.

Wow, quick response lol. What kind of gemmable haste gear is available easily? I have a 440 leatherworker alt and a BS/JC alt, so gemming is no problem, but I don't know what to make in terms of gear, if applicable.
Otherwise, working on that stuff now

No idea what gear gives haste, I think you'll just have to scour your crafting list.

engi is nice for it to due to haste boost you can add on gloves ofc haste pots ... you can go with another player that gives you haste but due to my many king krush fails they might over arggo unless your 100% sure they will sit still ><
some mail gear does give haste tbh yeah your 80 but you dont wanna be taking hits in cloth gear

It was never possible to tame in two seconds.
What you are probably thinking of is the
Mystical Skyfire Diamond. It reduced the cast time of your next spell by half.
This got you to 10 seconds cast time. Additional hate gear/spells were required to knock off an extra three seconds.

Bloodlust (Edit: or Heroism) is or at least was also a massive decrease in time iirc.

Yeah, it helps a lot when I've had a shammy to help me.
The mystical gem mentioned, that's how most people got their tame fast enough for the spirit wolf. I believe you had to get the tame down to 4 seconds.
