Done Leveling

Post by Kel » July 7th, 2016, 4:47 pm

I finally get to make this post for myself. After reading so many others who reached this milestone, now it's my turn. I finally finished leveling all of my level-able (is that word) pets (not counting duplicates). 704 of my 717, the rest being non-combat pets. It's been a very long journey. I took a much different approach than most. Rather than grinding out tons of dailies or spending untold hours battling Squirt over and over and over, I simply did my garrison dailies religiously on my 7 different max level toons and used the charms to buy stones. Sure, it took a hell of a lot longer. But my sanity is still, for the most part, intact. :lol:

Now, I just gotta figure out how to get more pets without spending real life money. Because that is not an option. Maybe I need a horde that can get me the grunt/herald/page I'm missing. :?

And of course you'll need a Horde character to get the new Horde PvP pet.

I haven't even gotten the Direhorn pet yet. I hate PvP battles. Mostly cause I don't have [url=http://www.warcraftpets.com/wow-pets/undead/miscellaneous/graves/]Graves[/url], I don't have [url=http://www.warcraftpets.com/wow-pets/humanoid/miscellaneous/treasure-goblin/]Treasure Goblin[/url], I don't have [url=http://www.warcraftpets.com/wow-pets/humanoid/murlocs/murkalot/]Murkalot[/url]. So PvP battles tend to be not a lot of fun. :cry:

Congrats [profile]Kel[/profile]!

I'm in a similar boat with the [pet]Stunted Direhorn[/pet]. Just can't bring myself to pet PVP...argh.

Good luck collecting the rest of the pets you need!

Side note: I see you're still in need of [pet]Clock'em[/pet] -- I would put high priority on collecting him ASAP. The Brawler's Guild is going on hiatus once the pre-expansion patch is released (tentative release date ~July 19??), and it's unknown when the Guild will re-open.

Thanks Quint!

Yeah, Clock-Em is another one on my list of love/hate. That whole brawler's guild thing has me perplexed, to say the least. I don't seem to be very good at it. :(

I had the same problem. I found there are a wealth of videos on youtube showing how to beat the bosses. I managed to get past all of them except the last one, so I guess I won't get the mount.

I was always afraid of the Brawler's Guild myself, but got to the 3rd rank with no problem. And I haven't even gathered a PG: Gold Damage with that character! :lol:

No idea about the mount however.

Tried a Blingtron's Challenge once, I felt it was bugged (the charge did a fatal mess even though I was far from it).

Congratulations! I try and level a couple a day to 25, but I've run out of all motivation :lol:

Brawler's Guild to get the pet is a walkover, and I'm useless at most things :mrgreen: Go get it!

You shouldn't look at it that you have to do 250 wins. Just do 5 wins a day. Should take only 20-30 minutes even with a bad win ratio.
Keep it up for 50 days (less then 2 months) and you got your pet!

I totally suck at pet pvp, but doing it that way, it wasn't too bad at all.

Congratulations!

That's a huge achievement I don't see myself ever reaching (or at least the foreseeable)

Hope you have good luck with the rest you are hunting for and keep up the great work :D

Yeah, pet PvP is just such a drag though. I mean, I haven't even gotten my Pug yet either. :cry:
If I ever get my Pug, I'll name him Ugh, 'cause that's the sound I make every time I think about enduring pugs. :lol:

You can also pick the weekly "What We've Been Training For" for the "Brawler's Pet Supplies" as a little extra incentive.

I have been stuck at 125ish/250 wins since the middle of Panda. I just don't really enjoy the pet PVP.

This is honestly the best advice ever, regarding the Direhorn pet. I also hate PVP but forced myself to get a couple of wins a day and I finally got there. :)

Hi,

Been coming along ... I'm almost half way of my pets all up to 25 and Rare. Per spreadsheet, though, 75% of all my pets are Rare, with only a few duplicates and 6 Poor pets all together. Uncommon is where work is needed, but now that I know to look for the different versions of the pets, it will make it easier to pick them up and level the right ones. I would say, that before knowing that, I wasted a good 10 to 20% of the time on things, but at least I knew to bring one up of each pet via the dailies and the number of Pet Charms and such.

Finding the spreadsheet helped clear things up, and know which one to update/upgrade next once I split it apart.
