#75 Spawn of G'nathus


Alludra hunts down the spawn of G'nathus, a pretty easy fight with a guaranteed reward! 





Alludra the Mage here helping you find the pets!

Because there are too many to track nowadays!

One of the newer pets out and on the prowl is The Spawn ofG'nathus. This guy drops from G'nathus, a completely soloable elete if you like kiting, found over on the isle of Shan'ze Dao in Towne Long Steppes. You k now, that island where we did all those crazy shadow pan dalies? Yeah! There!

Me and a bunch of guildies spent a completely enjoyable evening taking this guy down to get the pet, which seems to have a 100% drop rate! If you are crazy enough to try and kite this guy, remember he falls for all sorts of traps and snares, being a big eel and all, and he also can hit for about 70k every 5-10 seconds and has the health of a big elete eel.

So, yeah bring some friends! His spawn time isn't that long and heck, good times had by all!

#74 Throne of Thunder (Updated!)

The pets of the Throne of Thunder raid, where they are and how to get them! 




New happy updated version!!



Alludra the Mage here catching the pets to beat you in duels!

I've had a really great run in pvp battles, can ya tell?

It's a good thing too because blizzard did something terrible  Guys, they put pets in progression raiding. Don't believe me, well let's head on over to, the Throne of Thunder

The Living Sandling is the first pet in the zone you...might come across. This little guy is a raid wide drop, which means he can drop off trash or bosses alike. While this is great, I want you to think back at how often raid zone drops have dropped for you in the past. And now think of a pet with that chance.  I thought he was a raid wide drop but it turns out he dropps from the council of elders. (I should know better then to do research while sick...) Wowhead is currently reporting a 4% drop rate, so....yay... 

The next pet is the Son of Animus who drops from none other than the Dark Animus. He's a cool looking mechanical pet that seems to have a crazy low drop rate.

Finally there is the Ji-Kun Hatchling dropping from Ji-Kun and proving that no raid boss should participate in take your child to work day. this flying pet has a reported  1% drop rate so keep those feathers crossed.

Don't worry though all these guys also drop in LFR, but that also means you have to run with the people you find in an LFR. 

I suggest saving your Mogu Runes of Fate for Ji-Kun and the Dark Animus for a second chance at those pets.

Maaan....like I didn't already want a raid team...

#73 Beasts of Fable


The beasts of fable quest line and how to get some majorly cute pandas! 


Captureable versions of the legendary pet can be found nearby!



Alludra the Mage here doing the work so you can catch the pets!

Pandaria is full of fantastic wild life, amazing new sights and of course pandas! But all that pales in comparison to the beasts of fable.

This quest line is only available to those intrepid pet collectors who have defeated all of the tamers in Kalimdor, eastern kingdoms, Outland, Northrend and Pandaria! If you still want to pet battle after this, Beasts of fable is a quest you can pick up afterward!

This quest line has you hitting all the zones in Pandaria to battle 10 legendary wild pets out in the wild. Sadly, these guys aren't tamable. But they are mostly critters, beast, and aquatic pets found on their own. So you can take them out with a good pet or two at max level.

At the end of the quest you are awarded with the red panda pet! So cute! But the beasts of fable quest then turns into a daily. Yeah! You can defeat all ten pets every single day! Joy!

But seriously, there's a bag that you get at the end of the daily that can have the other panda pets inside! They are the Mountain Panda, the Snowy Panda and the Sunfur Panda! All three are of course beasts, but not legendary quality.

#72 Zandalari Dinosaurs

Alludra discusses the new Zandalari Dinosaurs...again! April fool's joke that's misstimed? Brain fert? You be the judge!

Another great shot of that same night!




Alludra the mage here helping you get the pets to make your collection unbeatable!
5.2 is here! Huzzah! And to celebrate we are off to the Isle of

wait where's the music?

what do you mean he wanted too much?

what a ripoff.

Anyway we are off to the Isle of Giants, which is actually really to scale and totally isn't some sort of Jurassic era preserve of beasts of the era.

While there we are looking for the Zandalari Dinomancers! These sparse mobs are doing more then 'mancing the dinos, they are actually taming them! Yeah! And hunters need tomes! Don't worry though, unlike everyone else on the island, these guys are totally solo-able. 

Their voodo is super effective! They ahve the chance to drop not one, not two but FOUR dino pets! Zandalari Anklerender, ZandalariFootslasher, Zandalari Kneebiter, and Zandalari Toenibbler. Yes! I got that right! It IS zandalari and not zalandari!

Now you may have heard these guys have a phenominal drop rate, well...that's not true, at least not anymore! A recent patch has set the drop rate back to 5%. Man, they caught us at is quickly!
But all these little guys are also tradeable! So if you cant' find that last one, or you have too many dinos to keep, you can AH the little beasts for a nice profit!


(Yes this is a reapeat, sorry about that! But in two years of doing this, it's my first!)

#71 Isle of Giants

We explore the pets of 5.2 in the Isle of Giants! A place not only full of tiny pets, but also is oddly to scale.

They all got in the way!





Alludra the Mage here, helping you get the pets now that the world is growing larger.

And speaking of larger, now in  5.2 we have an Isle of Giants! This is pretty...actually I feel like we are all to scale, what's up with that? But it's still pretty cool in an Isle of Quel'Danas meets Tol Barad sort of way. Either way, there's pets here and we can't be avoiding that!

While you are out doing...dailies, keep a look out for Zandari Dinomancers! These guys are...well they are mobs found not everywhere but they have a chance of dropping new pets when you defeat them!

What pets? Well how about the Zandalari Anklerender the Zandalri Toenibbler the Zandalari Keebiter and the Zandalari Footslasher. Yes! all these pets! Wow! And if you think that's impressive just think: I mispronounced them all on Battle Pets!

Seriously though these cute little dino beasts are all totally adorable and different colors, for outfit coordination I imagine!

So head on out there and start your own dino collection! They are so cute who could pass them up?
