Novikova Vs. Sholazar Basin Round 2: Electric Boogaloo.

Yeah, after seeing a friend's King Krush, the green dino has caught my eye! So I'm keeping an eye out for him. Has anyone on Feathermoon caught his timer recently?

Maybe with all the time I spend in the basin I need to narrate this Man vs. Wild style. Minus the bug eating. Is he safe to solo tame? My gear has almost 23% haste and I have those speed potions... But I have about 29k health too and gift of the Naaru I can use in advance as well as that Lifebloom business.

You dont need haste. I solo-tamed him easily at lvl 76. x3

Oh, well, that's a bonus. I should be good! Now begins the camp. I just remember him Krush'ing me as it were at 76.

When I tamed him on Lisaara, he didnt even get a chance to fear me. Get as much distance as you can to avoid the fearing. You'll have him then before he gets to cast it. :3

I found mine at one of his most common spawn points, up in the north area with the mammoths/rhinos.

I am from Feathermoon, and caught my Krush at about 9:40 at night server time, this was after he had spawned at about 2:40 earlier that day (right when I had to be in class, of course) I got him up by the Glimmering Pillar. There had been a server restart that morning, at about 6:40. Be aware that this was several weeks ago, and there have been many server restarts since then. Hope this helps! Good luck on your green dino!

He probably did... They changed tame speed (down from 20 to 10 seconds) and removed the armor reduction in patch 4.01 though, so now it's easy to solo tame a lot of those hard ones. I tamed King Dred without any boost except a Drum of Forgotten Kings.

I caught him about a month ago. Shortly after the big patch. Because of the HP increase and the buff to tame beast, you should be able to tame him. All I did was send a trash pet to soak up the first fear, abandoned, and tame. I think I finished him with little over half my HP left. I don't think I even hit BW. Much easier than it was pre patch.

Cool. :D And bother, someone is offering up to 6k for the kill. One of the folks wanting to kill him is nice but. I hope he spawns soon...

Edit: Well, boo. A BE hunter beat me to him. But he seems nice so it's ok! At least I can go out and about. :D

Edit edit: He IS nice. Grats! :D I'll poke back later. For now, RL kitties and daillies!

Well, thanks for classifying me as nice. ;) If I'd known you were that close, I'd have tried to hold him for you...but I've been burned before with him being killed and all I could do was watch. We'll get him for you, never fear!

That's alright. It happens. I appreciate the thought at least.

Back in the Basin! Got some pizza rolls and a movie. *shiftyeyes* This is way more fun with Petopians around.

Hahaha, what are the chances the person who tamed Krush right before you was a Petopian? <3 Grats Tahlian~ And you'll get him Novi! Just stay dedicated and watch for them respawn timers! :D

Ahaha, yeah. I'm still on it. Got another hour in me I think... that'd put it at the 8 hour mark. Here's hoping.

Edit: Merp. I wish NPCscan didn't go off for pets. :(

Still no luck. Hordie here with me. Hoping he's friendly. It's past the 8 hour mark... I started at 7PM server. Hrm.

Edit: Well, it's about half past midnight. I should sleep. Sadness. But eventually I hope.

Well, last night's camping proved unfruitful (At least the 4-8 hour window). Here's to another afternoon parked. To quote a hero on Freakazoid, I MUST SUCCEED!

Or something like that.

WOOHOO! Got him at about 10:44ish server (Can't pin the exact minute, my heart was racing) XD. I was so scared because he feared me into Farunn, then killed me the first time. I got him with the help of a kindly dwarf priest. Thanks guys. :D Camping with Petopians is far more endurable.
