Pet of the Week: Spirit of Atha

10 Comments
Hail Hydra! That seems to be the hunter mantra of the week. Everywhere I go, I see hunters sporting their newly tamed hydras. Arguably one of the coolest is Spirit of Atha, the ghost hydra. This isn't the first time I've tamed this elusive beast. I was one of those who tamed … Continue Reading ››

Have you been on the 6.0 PTR yet to test the hunter changes? If you weren't in beta, I'd highly recommend it! You can test out most of the new hunter stuff except the level 100 talents. The new pet families are tameable except for Riverbeasts and Rylaks which only exist in Draenor. One of … Continue Reading ››

New hunter pet families in Warlords of Draenor

19 Comments
Warlords of Draenor is introducing five new hunter pet families, bringing the grand total to 48 different families. It's kind of disturbing to think that we barely have enough stable slots to house one pet from each family. Many families will remain unrepresented in my stables unfortunately (WTB more stable slots), but these five new families will … Continue Reading ››

How to tame Chimaeron at level 90 and 100

24 Comments
Taming Chimaeron is simple for a level 100 character, but if you want to tame him in patch 6.0 at level 90, it's a little trickier to do solo, but still perfectly doable. I'll start with level 100. It isn't quite as simple as walking in and taming. First you need to show Chimaeron who's … Continue Reading ››

New hunter pets in Shadowmoon Valley

4 Comments
Shadowmoon Valley had a wider variety of tameable pets than Frostfire Ridge did (a lot of the ones in Frostfire weren't yet flagged as tameable on the alpha). Some of the ones in Shadowmoon still can't be tamed, but that'll be fixed in time. Is your stable full? You might want to make room for some … Continue Reading ››

Pet of the Week: Echidnian Hydra

These lumbering beasts wander the shallows of the Nightmarsh in Shadowmoon Valley. Hydras are one of the 3 new hunter pet families being added in Warlords of Draenor, the others being Rylaks and Riverbeasts, which I'll feature shortly. Hydras bring the Keen Senses (mastery) buff. There's a little bit of a bug … Continue Reading ››

This new Hydra model was datamined from the latest Warlords of Draenor alpha build. I must say, these guys look pretty impressive. The first question many hunters had was... IS IT TAMEABLE? The answer is yes! I found … Continue Reading ››
