A couple of things to add, the number of training points you get are tied to the pet level and it's happiness, so a rank 6 loyalty lvl 60 pet will have the max training points, however... there will not be enough to train everything, there aren't even enough to train both natural armor and greater stamina to max rank, not to mention the resistances, most players will pick one special attack and usually greater stamina as natural armor won't mitigate magic damage. Also bad news for those taking Bite, because rank 8 bite can only be learned from the Blackrock Worgs inside Lower Blackrock Spire, so you have to form a full group and tell them that you intend to tame one of the worgs because if they just gather everything up and spam AOE they will break the tame channel. A cheeky trick you can use was shown in the video, drop a freezing trap before you start the tame and the pet will be frozen for a good portion preventing the damage you take. This is mandatory for elite level beasts unless you have a healer.

Super helpful notes! Definitely thank you for the extra tips! I'm not too familiar with 60 as of yet but it'll be great to add and update that as SoD goes on!
@mrmogensen8 ай бұрын
Thank you so much. Every other hunter guide just says "this is the easiest class in the game" and then just tells about the different pet classes. I played vanilla wow for years but never tried hunter before and the feeding and especially the ability learning was super confusing to me, but you made it very clear! Thanks a lot and hope to see you all on turtle wow when SOD gets boring!

hey man! thanks for the video helped me a lot!! but one QS: once ive learned bite and claw r3..does my pet automatically learn rank4 and so on by using it? like ur cat as example..or do i always need to get a pet which has a higher rank and do it again? THX BUDDY :D
@ReptilioPlays7 ай бұрын
You will need to go and hunt down every rank so you'll need to keep finding new pets with upgraded ranks, learn them, and then teach them to your other pets! Basically always have 1 slot open for learning ranks and 2 slots for your favorite pets you want forever 😊

definitely need more updated version each phases since the best pets changes time to time with each released content back in vanilla. eg, in the end bats from ZG is superior to any other pets due screech,dive and huge atk speed. (0.7-.8 before it got tuned to 1.0 back in days of zul gurub release) @ReptilioPlays as far as i could remember screech was very cool skill for pvp scenarios. And i do remember i'd stick with solo plays as boar since it has huge all around defensive capabilities + charge = extra threat for MM hunters. as you can guess MM hunters needs a proper tanking pet in order to hunt the enemy easily. I'm still amazed how new content creators despise the boar like pets. and calculates a min max scenarios. in overall scenario you'd needed a better performance pets which only holds out : lupos-cat-flyer-boar/turtle over bears. depending on your likings or a rare pets.

Hello! This guide is not about what the best pets are and for what scenarios, but more HOW pets work and the mechanics of having a hunter and taming pets. I will make a separate guide for BiS pets as time goes on but this was not meant to be an endgame guide to best skills and pets ☺
