Zwuh? This, this I think I'm going to get. Backline heal? Hello new strategies! Or depending on health, this guy could make a serious stall pet. Combining Bark+Tough/Cuddly makes a decent wall. Avalanche tho. That one has my attention. Unique as far as I know. Field split damage is one thing, but it also looks to be a solid finisher. Should be fun to see how the meta changes.
I got mine on 15 June, Borean Tundra, near the BorGorok outpost. US, Magtheridon, Horde, about 1300 server. I had a battery of alts at all three known locations in Borean.
Overall, I've seen a couple of these beauties running around in Borean before today. Seems to be several hours between spawns, and catching one does not appear to instaspawn another in the same zone. I camped another hour after the catch to see if I saw another at any of the other sites there.
After 4 days of not seeing any, I left an alt out there, and checked at server low times (5am, 11am, 3pm). Tried the drake killing to force a spawn, but no luck there.
Took another week before I got one. Poor, but a battlestone fixed that. As far as fighting goes, this thing is an endurance beast. Pop the reduced damage, attack with your one slot, refresh damage reduction before sleeping. Slow, but effective.
Did some research, and I decided not to camp for him. I went with a three server spread of alts logged out there. I'd check at aroud 5/6/7am each server, and again around 11/12/1300.
Two weeks in, and I started seeing them. Macro /tar spam would find them in battle with other people. Managed to get into battle with him twice, but... well, PvP happens, and a 47 alt isn't doing much to a 90. I adjusted my morning seek time back another half hour and got lucky enough to get one.
Holy moly, thanks to Undermine and a dedicated network of alts, I've finally collected all the TCG pets. My wonderful wife also GAVE me a Crawling Claw, which means that I'm out of cagable pets to collect. Time for achievements!
