World Of Warcraft: 10 Rarest Obtainable Hunter Pets | Game Rant
Being a Hunter in World of Warcraft gives the player two things: the easiest leveling experience, and another collectible in the form of Hunter pets. Each race has its own special hunter pet (boars for Orcs, hounds for Worgen) and these get the job done for the most part. But part of the MMO experience is showing off your rare collectibles to other players, and boy do Hunters have access to a lot of cool pets.
Many of the rarest pets in World of Warcraft require a detailed approach – often they only spawn under certain conditions or in specific areas. It's important to keep notes handy for each pet you want to tame just in case it has a specific taming method associated with it.
10 Sabertrons (Battle for Azeroth, Stormsong Valley)
Sabertrons were notoriously difficult to tame in Battle for Azeroth because they were tied to a popular world quest. Now that less people are spending time in the Battle for Azeroth expansion, it's easier to acquire one of these but it still has a few steps.
The Sabertron must not be damaged by anybody else during the fight, and the Hunter must have learned how to tame pets in the mechanical family. These are a relatively rare spawn and are only available in the Red color.
9 Elegon (Shadowlands, Mogu'Shan Vaults)
Elegon is the newest rare available for taming in Shadowlands. To tame this beast, the player must travel all the way back to Pandaria and face this boss in the Mogu'Shan Vaults raid. It's very solo-able, but still takes a good bit of time to complete.
For the first time, Hunters in Shadowlands can tame Cloud Serpents, but Elegon surprisingly does not count as one of these. It's under the Spirit Beast designation instead and is therefore only tamable by Beast Mastery Hunters.
8 Duskcloak Panthera (Legion, Argus)
The Duskcloak Panthera is the first beast listed here that requires specific steps to tame. While traveling Argus, hunters may get an exclusive rare drop called Fresh Talbuk Meat. The player must gather a few of these (they have about a 1% drop rate) then find this Panthera either at the Seat of the Triumvirate or in Krokuun.
Then, the player must make sure they have no followers and make sure no other players are nearby to screw up the taming process. Avoid getting aggro and use the Fresh Talbuk Meat on the Panthera and then attempt the tame. It will fail if you have aggro or don't aim the Meat correctly.
7 Skarr and Karkin (Cataclysm, Molten Front)
Skarr and Karkin are a rare panther and crab that spawn in the Molten Front. They spawn in the same locations but at different times, about 12 hours in between spawns on average. The hunter must go to the top of Fireplume Peak (a trial in and of itself) and then find the spawn points on the bottom right of the Fireplume Peak area.
Then, the taming process is pretty simple. They will cast spells that interrupt the tame, so be sure to disengage and silence the rare before continuing the tame. As long as it's completed, you'll have your very own red-eyed chromium beast!
6 Lightning Paw (Legion, Duskwood)
Lightning Paw is one of the hardest rares to find not because of a weird location but because it is stealthed at all times. This blue ethereal fox has a chance to spawn all across Duskwood but especially in bushes with eyes. These are visible from far away and can be checked quickly with a flying mount.
This rare is considered a Spirit Beast and is only available to Beast Mastery Hunters. It's an easy tame but be sure to keep Track Hidden on for extra stealth detection.
5 Loque'Nahak (Wrath of the Lich King, Sholazar basin)
Loque'Nahak is an infamous tamable beast from the Wrath of the Lich King expansion. It is on a very long respawn timer, making it a hotly contested tame, and can spawn all across Sholazar Basin. However, the tame itself requires no specific steps aside from finding the rare beast.
This beast-like many others is considered a Spirit Beast and must be tamed by a Beast Mastery Hunter. Be warned, though – many players have camped his spawn locations for months to no avail, so it might be a while to add Loque'Nahak to your collection.
4 Gara (Warlords of Draenor, Shadowmoon Valley)
Gara the Spirit Beast is an extremely complicated tame, so much so that many hunters have never attempted the multi-part quest-chain-like requirements. It involves killing multiple other elites around the area, confronting the Void Lord Xan, and picking berries.
However, once the prerequisites are met, the tame is incredibly easy for Beast Mastery hunters as Gara won't fight back at all.
3 Iron Juggernaut (Mists of Pandaria, Siege of Orgrimmar)
The Iron Juggernaut is a mechanical scorpion available in the Siege of Orgrimmar raid only. It's very solo-able nowadays and only requires the hunter to do two things: have the Mecha-Bond Imprint Matrix, allowing the taming of mechanicals, and go around the raid collecting items.
The Pile of Juggernaut Parts (from the Iron Juggernaut), Blackfuse's Power Core (from Siegecrafter Blackfuse), and a bucket of paint found on the ground in various places are all that's needed to craft this pet and subsequently tame it.
2 Fenryr (Legion, Halls of Valor)
Fenryr was an iconic enemy in Legion as a reference to the Nordic mythological beast Fenrir. The player must defeat Hymdall on their own and make it all the way into Fenryr's cave without dying to packs of mobs. Feign Death is essential for this tame.
The player must clear small packs of wolves near Fenryr, and then solo the boss. The player cannot directly tame the boss, instead, a tameable version of Fenryr will spawn inside of his cave if accomplished correctly.
1 Felbound Wolf (Warlords of Draenor, Tanaan Jungle)
The Felbound Wolf is a rare spawning green-skinned wolf tamable in the Tanaan Jungle. The player must first find a Vial of Fel Cleansing which drops off of Fel Rangari Anaara, a rare spawn in Tanaan Jungle.
Once the Hunter has this vial, they must use it on a Felbound Wolf to apply a debuff, at which point it is tamable. Fel Rangari Anaara is a relatively difficult rare, though, so be sure to prepare for this fight ahead of time.
