Omg!!! This is amazing!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ thank you Hazel!

[@jimmabankspogo]

Great video Hazel. So easy to follow.

[@llynay8986]

your videos make me smile. Thanks Hazel!

[@DIEGhostfish]

Does it HAVE to be Winterfall Firewater and not Darkmoon? Because WinterFall Firewater was made crazy rare.

[@krooke9514]

Thanks for the vid. FYI Major Fire Protection Potion missing from list in add info for the video.

[@guillermoroldan8074]

That waiting line was fantastic

[@GamingFoodie]

I just got mine today after finding this guide. I had no idea this even existed! Very happy to be an alchemist with all but 1 of these recipes. Thank you so much!

[@M0OSE]

I love that there was a line to get the sprite thing haha. That's amazing.

[@catastrophic37]

Cool video but the protection pots have a 5 min cd now. So I am going to have to look up another way to do this. Need a video update. Edit: So I found a fix. Take a potion, log off for 5 minutes, log back on and take another. Repeat until you have them all equipped. When you log off the consume timer keeps ticking and disappears, but while your offline the potion timer doesnt. So you still have to wait like 25 minutes just to get through the barrier, but it works I just got my darter :) Everything else works the same.

[@timothyae]

the potion buff lasts 2 hours now. you don't have to logout

[@user-os8kb5bo6q]

you can still do this even with the 5 min cool down - follow the guide as she gave it, just takes a little longer to drink the potions but they also last longer now.

[@uncledungeonmaster]

The MAJOR protection potions now have a five freakin' minute cooldown before you can drink the next one! But each lasts two hours. So, here's a trick. The cooldown ticks while you're logged out, but the potion duration does not. So you can drink each one, log out and do dailies on another character for five minutes, log back in and drink the next protection potion. Lather. Rinse. Repeat. It still take 30 minutes to drink 6 potions. But at least you're not stuck in the cave picking your nose while you wait. Thanks for everything as always, Hazel. You're a beacon of kindness in our community.

[@kenshiro74ota99]

they cut the duration of the potions in half.

[@tomijaroli8781]

@@kenshiro74ota99 now they are 2 mins...

[@emmalouwestwood665]

aww I loved the queue of players waiting for the rare. so nice 😊 thanks for guide Hazel

[@MachineKit]

Watched several videos to be sure i didn't miss anything and your video was by far the most accurate and helpful. And one of the few to warn about not jumping off the ledges. Thanks!

[@lvceline]

Thank you so much for the guide! I just got mine. I don't think I've ever been so nervous doing something, I knew if I screwed up, 12k worth of mats was gone. After I crushed the water stone and walked through the water wall, I must have went too far through because it teleported me back to just before the gargoyle. Thankfully I was still a skeleton and could just walk right by, but then I had like 8 minutes CD on my scotty's coin, and 9 left on my protection buffs. I sat there until I had one minute on my coin (thinking I had to go through the vine again and get another water stone) and realized the water stone buff never left so I just walked back through the water wall to just beyond the other side, continued, and had no issues with the rest. This pet is GORGEOUS!

[@paulbozikis4645]

nice clear instructions on point, pleasant, you are probably the best addon for people like me that enjoy pet battles, and on top of that you are very easy on the eye and you have a sweet voice, thank you

[@ravensplayground]

Thank you so much for that detailed description on how to get the Sun Darter Hatchling. Followed it step by step and it worked perfectly.

[@Zeppelin21212]

Hey Hazel thank you very much for taking the time to do these video's there very helpful!! Your the best keep up the good work and have a nice day

[@highcommander2007]

5:18 - 6 years later these now have a 5 min cooldown, but last 60 mins. So plan on waiting 30 mis or so after you take the fire one, but make sure to take the next ones every 5 mins or you might run outta time before they are all active

[@Morncreek]

Thank you for the visual guide, Hazel! I process information much better when it is shown to me, so I only got lost once. (I have terrible sense of direction, IRL *and* in-game, unfortunately, haha.)

[@Octi915]

One thing to add, the time between drinking the potions it 5 minutes, just got the pet today. Thank you and stay awesome, Hazel!

[@user-os8kb5bo6q]

Wonderful! Thank you so much for this. Super organized and easy to follow, made getting this pet a breeze! you have a new subber.

[@mjc42701]

My main is an alchemist since Vanilla wow days so I had the recipes and could get all the rest pretty easy, Scotty's coin was the hardest to get, unlike Hazels server, I'm on a high pop pvp server so I had to battle not only horde but Alliance as well to tag him, I finally got him, omw to get my new Sun Darter, Thank You Hazel for your all of your great guides, other than the fact I'm almost old enough to be your mom, we are a lot alike, I love pets both in game and out, try to help people, cook a lot, have very long brown hair and am sweet also (try to be anyway). I know your mom is proud of who you are, you make the world a little brighter. keep up the good work. =D

[@krysagogo]

Thank you for this guide! I got my Sun Darter Hatchling this morning and made 30k gold on the extra pots! They're going for about 2k gold each on my server. It took a bit of time to farm the mats, but it was totally worth it!

[@susansargies2043]

Thank you Hazelnutty! Your guides are easy to understand, quick, and most of all fun! I also like that you put in some WoW trivia, lore or tips and tricks, for us lazy goofballs!!

[@belindamonroe]

Thank you for your awesome guide. I was able to get my pet today especially for the 20 wow anniversary.

[@gam21]

Excellent guide, thanks. I will never understand how people can down-vote these videos.

[@0dinko]

That que for the coin was unbelievably cool! kudos for it! :)

[@PechaDee]

1) Wonderful video! 2) thanks for including the gold making portion 3) That lineup for the coin gave me a warm fuzzy feeling ^_^

[@grimmmark]

This is awesome thank you very much, but you don't have the major fire protection in your list of things needed in the comments. But in the 4th paragraph you have it as the first thing needed...love your videos...i watch them all the time for my pet battles!!!

[@wowgurl25]

your explanation made the acquisition more realistic to me. I can't wait to get mine now 😄 great videos! 😊

[@dragonmother204]

This was fun doing it with a few guildies! Thank you for the guide!

[@nightelf7701]

Cave of Consumption location: fly OVER the snowy mountains in northern Winterspring, the cave is on the coast. No waypoint shows up so I can't give you one.

[@kn3271]

(57 , 13)

[@beesly01]

I legitimately laughed out loud when I saw the "Scotty Line".

[@dndwilkins3087]

Thank Hazel, your guide was easy to follow. and I now have my Sun Darter Hatchiling. One issue I had was with the water stone. My video card is not the best and I had to go into my setting and raise my display setting to see the stone. Otherwise, it worked perfectly. BTW I farmed all the mats and recipes so now I can help guildies.

[@ScullyMD-jt1bn]

Thank you Hazel! I already posted this in my guild discord so everyone can watch it!

[@ScullyMD-jt1bn]

My bff and I JUST went and got this pet. Your guide is AWESOME! Thank you Hazel!!! YOU ROCK!!!

[@wreckenzie6106]

LOVE the vids! I tried to do this and went off of your written list while prepping and got to the cave to realize you forgot the fire protection potion on the list! No biggie since it was only the first you needed but maybe add it so people get it before they get to the cave? Thanks and keep it up!

[@Beerpowered]

Heads up they have since patched the potions to a 5 MINUTE COOLDOWN! EACH! Long long wait. You can watch a TV Episode while waiting.

[@morganablackwater2017]

Damn! Thank you SO MUCH for this... Im trying to get the felcycle and can't beat the pet master with my pets so Im gona swap Tafty for Darter... Need to get it and level it up thou 🤣🤣🤣 and Im already close to jump out of the window... So thanks for those head ups

[@jeniferalvarez2914]

Wow! As always thanks Hazel! 💜 What a stunning pet! I need!

[@jaskier6295]

I can't believe it worked, it seemed impossible, thanks to the author

[@Doss2k]

FYI it appears the major protection potions now have a 5 min cooldown so be prepared to spend a lot of time here to get them all rolling

[@nathanmiller7149]

Best guide yet re: the sun darter hatchling.

[@FEARSWTOR]

Who came up with this? Richard Garriot? That's some Ultima 2 puzzle sadism right there.

[@MiCayIa]

Thank you, just got my sun darter hatchling :) I had to farm all the recipes tho, since a few werent in the auction house so i decided to just get them myself instead of waiting till 1 pops up overpriced.

[@mspecht565]

the list above in the description is missing ,,, 1 Major Fire Protection Potion... don't forget this one too.. had to go back to get it

[@pamhaston2708]

Thank you so much for this video! Add the Fire Protection potion on the list and it will be golden!

[@AlchemiaNurse]

Thanks for this guide :) super easy to follow!

[@spectralcitizen]

Thank you so much for this great guide.

[@ahmedblackcat]

really amazing description hazel .. thanks !!

[@joekerr9197]

Decided to farm all mats by myself...I wasn't ready to pay 1-5k for the mats. So being an alchemist/herbalist I decided to go and farm it all myself...took me at least 3hrs more-less. Finally gathered all and went to the cave...did everything by the book but forgot to use the scroll of intellect at the very end for some reason...three times...so I had to run back to Feralas/BRD to get the new suit and brew... This is extreme by the amount of time/gold you need to spend and it does not end in the cave either, you gotta be extra careful there as well since slightest mistake will end up with you being ported out. Anyway got my pet, looks great, great set of moves.

[@magecastermax2054]

I got my Sun Darter yesterday and I love it just as much as the original

[@heatherwind]

THANK YOU. This guide worked perfectly!

[@phoenixlance7257]

Thank you very much for this video. Easy to comprehend!

[@aesthral]

some heros wear cape others are in the WoW secret finding community ...like props to them!

[@wilfang]

On the list is missing the Fire pot. also if you do copy paste from the list, Major arcane "protection is spelled Wrong so is the Nature... just in case cause that made me think there was no potions available in the AH. Thanks for all the info very appreciated.

[@CapN_Swagga]

Great video very easy to follow thank you

[@GoforKrogh]

the Major Fire Protection Potion is not mentioned in your description below the video. Just so people make sure to get this too before they burn lots of gold on the other stuff :) and I can see that the potions now have a 5 minute cooldown. not a 1 minute as stated. they last 67 minutes and you can logout without them ticking down but the cooldown on the potion does so, Consume one, log out for five minutes, log in, consume another... repeat.

[@oswaldovzki]

I love your guides! :D Thanks

[@weeabooshunter4759]

very complex, thanks for the awesome video

[@samarkarazi4404]

Thank you!! very helpful and detailed guide ^^

[@lindad535]

Well made, well thought out. Thanks!

[@starliabane9631]

Yes thank you! I LOVE your videos

[@AntPDC]

Thank you. According to WowHead: "It seems you have to do EITHER the Gordok Ogre Suit/Firewater OR the Pygmy/Perky Pug+Princess, not both". I propose to test this once I've gathered the other mats since I don't have Perky Pug (I hate Dungeon PUGs).

[@AntPDC]

I just completed this WITHOUT a perky pug/little princess outfit. If you don't have the pug, simply SKIP the WISDOM CUBE chamber entirely and head down the ramp after using the Gordok Ogre Suit/Winterspring Firewater combo in the other chamber. The vine door blocking the chamber with the egg will be open! I guess this works similarly if you have the pug, but not the Gordok Ogre Suit/Firewater.

[@spunbearing]

great video and still relevant.

[@xzivizx]

Great Guide!!!! Thank You!

[@tomasgulas7498]

Thanx Hazel, another great video :)

[@bigtsayain8436]

thanks for the guide Hazel.

[@BoscoBuddy2023]

This work perfectly!!! Thanks you do a great job w vids!

[@araniusprod]

wow! that is amazing!!! what a criativity :D thank you for the guide

[@Blessia999]

ty for the video

[@desireestorm78]

Hey so thievideo show Major Fire Prtection Potion but the written list in summary doesnt, just fyi, if someone hasn't already mentions it, thx for the awesome videos

[@theclosk99]

I have done this on 3 toons and I can tell you that you DO NOT need to read the plaque at the end. I never clicked on it. I just took off the firewater buff then applied the intellect scroll then ran into the water and got the pet all 3 times. If it makes you feel better then go ahead and click on it, but it is not a requirement.

[@joycemiller6188]

this was a real help thank you

[@TEERACK]

really helpful i got mine watching this ^^

[@hamsterhamster6492]

Hazel: Gordok ogre suits are going 10,000 on my server right now Me: **buys* *one* *for* *7* *gold*

[@Hav1tt]

Can you please make a video about which addons you use and why you use them? I Use a few put i always feel that there are some i should be using but i am not

[@Ddarke11]

This just sounds like a miserable slog to do. edit: you're missing the Major Fire Protection Potion from list of needed things.

[@skyesthelimit6792]

A guide with commentary. ty hazel.

[@claraoswald7092]

Have just got it. Ty❤

[@noeldillabough2153]

still worth grouping up for Scotty; there's usually a dozen or more enemy gankers just waiting for pet people to come lol. My advice? Wait for 4 am :)

[@resistancebase1786]

tnx for video

[@lafleur_]

If you're doing this for the felcycle, Scotty's Lucky Coin now has 100% drop rate

[@remmap5875]

Hi Hazel love your videos

[@spacebass007]

Thank You. You are amazing!

[@zoenna]

Thanks for the guide ☺

[@SloidVoid]

the moment when you get all the things on the list, get to the cave, and hear "click on your fire protection potion" only to see that because it wasn't on the list you have to fly all the way back and buy one

[@quiltgal5444]

In your list in the video description you left off major fire protection

[@lilcurtis11]

Thanks for the help!!

[@rheanonjasmyne]

The cd on the potions is 2 mins, not 1 min, and the cavern is on the backside !

[@InternetPwnDept]

Caver Entrance is 57.22, 13.93 In 2024 each potion now has a 5 minutes cooldown, but also lasts 67 minutes long. You'll be sitting here for a little bit indeed!

[@PocketUnv]

Wow, that's quite a project. I MUST DO IT! =)

[@rayvedspark1556]

UPDATE: Cooldown of potions is now 5min and buff duration is 2h, you will indeed be here A WHILE.

[@hazard0707]

Thank you for the walk through. I did everything and accidentally picked up a dark iron ale instead of the transformation tool so I wasted literally all my mats except the coin and ogre suit. RIP 15k gold.

[@freddyih93]

I forgot my scroll of int in mailbox so yea :( A bit cheaper now but still sucks. Tried going back after flying to nearest town but buffs were gone, and only had one ogre suit. Ported to org hopeing to get what i needed before all the protection pots went out but no suit on ah :(

[@freddyih93]

Managed to get it after reading a comment on wowhead not needing the Ogre suit/Pug. Its just neccesary with just one of those buffs, either from the Cube or Stone, not both.

[@bigtsayain8436]

Saw this years ago and the mats were expensive at the time. This popped up in my feed again so I started picking up the items...not nearly as bad 3 years later. Of course is it still available or was this a limited time pet? How the heck did someone figure out these mats?

[@rong5008]

that line tho it's amazing!!!

[@Sotdot3]

Nice video😊

[@MrMcfatman]

Man oh man that was nuts. xD

[@DHASSE61]

Great video :)

[@Randorf100]

actually it was 5min wait from itch one

[@orpheestmort]

You forgot to write Mahor Fire Protection Potion in the description.

[@Assabinnas]

Help. My fire protection pot lasted only 2 minutes instead of 17 (why?). I can't pass through the fel wall because my fire protection buff expired. I also can't go back through the fire wall for the same reason. And I can't cast my hearthstone because it's a toy and not an item in my bag. I'm trapped in here and I can't get out :(

[@acroties9304]

Would love to get this pet unfourtantly i dont have and cant get the perky pug

[@catelinelabroderesse]

These potions now have a five minute cooldown. what do you do?

[@catastrophic37]

So I found a fix. Take a potion, log off for 5 minutes, log back on and take another. Repeat until you have them all equipped. When you log off the consume timer keeps ticking and disappears, but while your offline the potion timer doesnt. So you still have to wait like 25 minutes just to get through the barrier, but it works I just got my darter :) Everything else works the same.

[@IFWTHY]

If you are doing this nowadays prepare to wait a full 30 mins getting the potions on xD since the cooldown is now 5 minutes =P.

[@wendictive]

Hello @Hazelnuttygames so its now 2020 anf the potions dont last 17 min as u say in vid. but 2 min. wich wouldent work because u need to srink all 5 including the first one and after 3 potions the first will disapear. so what to do

[@wendictive]

nm they have extended time inside that cave ONLY

[@Psychowolf87]

don't have the pug but help by selling nature potions for a good price - i try lol
