I tamed a shadowbat for my project last night. I saw both level 69 and 70, but no 71′s. Vampiric Shadow bats showed ‘cannot be tamed’ with beast lore. It might have changed with 2.4, or I might just be crazy. I will definitely go back for a spider so I’ll let you know if anything changes.

It’s quite easy to solo tame a shadowbat, all you need is some patience and one invis pot, (either greater or lesser, doesnt matter at all). When you enter Karazhan, turn right at the spider, (You cannnot solo tame this one as he spawns adds as far i know). So anyway, turn aspect of the pack/cheetah on and use your invis pot. Now run as fast as you can forwards to the door, quickly move yourself to the right side of the door and feign death if needed. Place a trap in front of the door and get your tame ability ready. Wait till the bat comes out of the door and start taming, there you go.

(Karazhan doesnt have to be cleared, you can totally do this on your own).

I just want to point out that everyone is saying ‘Boss mob, so not tameable’.

One word: Ghamoo-ra.

Yeah, OK. It’s a very *minor* boss monster. But it *is* a boss monster that can be tamed. So I suggest at least giving Beast Lore a try on her, if someone can get to her. Yeah, probably not tameable, but ‘probably’ and ‘definitely’ are two different things.

Who knows? You might be able, when WotLK comes out, to be the first person to say ‘Yeah, I tamed a Kara boss’.

Jackie and Marlon are still Tamable though. You have to get “tame best” down to a 5 seconds cast. Then its easy as ABC….

* Shadowbat (69-70 Elite)- Tameable, No moves on them from what I know (Unless that has been changed) There are level 69′s I’ve had the chance to see one, once. But that was it.
* Greater Shadowbat (70-71 Elite) – Tameable, but only if they are level 70 since we can’t ding to level 71 yet ;) As far as I know, no moves to begin with on them.
* Vampiric Shadowbat (70-71 Elite) – Tameable, but same as the Greater xD and I don’t think these have any moves on them. I am not too sure as I never got to the part with them (I only went to tame a Greater Shadowbat, not the Vampiric)
* Shadikith the Glider (71-73 Elite) – I’m not exactly sure, I never had the advantage of going to see Shadikith, but I am guessing. That since he’s a boss its a No-Tame thing.
* Coldmist Widow (69-71 Elite) – Tameable as far as I know, not sure on moves as I never Beast Lored one but and I’m pretty sure the range is 69-70 I’m not sure if I saw any 71s.
* Coldmist Stalker (69-70 Elite) – Tameable, same as the Coldmist Widows ^^ Not sure on moves
* Hyakiss the Lurker (73 Elite) – Boss Mob so No-Tame on this guy (Too bad, I really like that skin)
* Tito (70 Elite) – Says it can be tamed, but like so many other pets he cannot due to being controlled by someone already.

That’s my run down on them all. I need to do a more advanced look into Kara to see just what’s going on with a few pets and I’ll update ya on my findings ^^

Mike, it’s probably like the Scarlet Hounds in WPL–they come up in Beast Lore as tameable, but they can’t be tamed because they’re “already controlled”. So.

Tito isn’t tameable, you’ll get an error message if you try to tame him. Think of it like he’s already someone else’s pet.

I dont know exactly what other people know but beast lore does list Tito as tameable.
When we were doing kara i did attempt to tame him but it always seemed i had my good pets with me when OZ was the choice of the week, so was never able to acctually try it.

Obvious problems is that, yes he may be conisdered Dorothy’s pet but other mobs have pets that clearly list them as untameable. He is a 70 elite that does fairly good damage compared to all other wolves. And his “annoying yipping” i believe is a silence which would break our taming or atleast prevent us to do it again if we fail.

Actually Wolfington you could get similar looking bats to tame and try out without going to Kara – just check Petopia under bats for ones with similar looks.

I have never been in Kara, (But I plan to change that next patch!) but I have seen the bats as pets. So sad that they have a screwy run animation, my hunter loves bats.
