All the testing I have been doing has used up all my toons except one 36 rogue and a 24 hunter. I will report back soon if it can be done.

That’s interesting, Dracojax! Now you’ve picqued my curiousity (and no, I have no idea how to spell that word).

Blizzard seems amused by the ‘figuring-out-how-to-do-it’ aspect of taming the ghost wolf, so I doubt it matters to them whether it can be done at level 30 or level 70. But of course I can’t give you any hard-and-fast answer, since I’m not Blizzard.

Ok, I think I have found an item in the game that stops the spawn timer. It worked on a Ghost Saber, and also on a Bosses spawned mobs, but I had to kite the saber inorder to keep it alive long enough to prove to myself I was in fact extending the timer. The quest can be completed by level 30s.

Its a one time use quest item and I only have one toon left that has never done the quest to get the reward.

Heres the main question. If this does work, would blizzard then nerf the pet forcing all the guys who have them to run to the BG to keep it happy?

I dont want to be the cause of a nerfed rare pet. I havent tamed one with my 70 yet…I like all three of my current pets :)

Palladiamorsdeus: Yes that would be nice to make it easier, but let us not forget one itty bitty thing =)
These are not technically pets, you’re basically taming a DoT with a graphic. If these shaman were to have 3 wolf guardians out for 10-20 seconds for an easier tame, that would be such a hurtin’ for casters trying to do this quest. XD
So I think it’ll be safe to say these won’t be made easier just because they’re not here for Hunters enjoyment intentionally so to speak.
I didn’t use my guild, got my friends who know how I am about hunter pets and they tagged along =) They love my pets Odin, Kiba and Heero and were glad to help me get Kiba. =D

i think it would be pretty sweet if they let us tame more unique “odd” pets. like the black raptors in ungoro (although i actually think that was changed recently so they could), the red hyenas in WPL (so if i wanted one, i wouldnt have to level it up from 30 something), the ghost wolves in kara that are spawned, or other such pets that are not tameable.

I think a Dragonwhelp would be an awesome pet, though they are obviously Dragonkin and thus, untameable. So, I plead with Blizzard that they give me a rabbit that is tameable. I want a cute, fluffy bunny that makes it all that more humilliating when you are PWNED by it.

“Dude, I just got my a** handed to me by a rabbit.”

Muwahaaaahaaaahaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

I was….. being sarcastic Nyx…. but yes, in general, my guilds do tend to be small. I just have in no interest in getting another wolf, even if the ghost wolf would fit my role playing story a bit better. And if the ghost wolf being on the PTR is any indiciation, then we may be seeing other skins of the creature pop up. We’ll just have to wait and see.
