Ikky has killed 2 of him, the other flying pet finish him.

/way Drustvar 21.4 66.4 Captain Hermes

Commento di Feliciamarie

Captain Hermes uses 3 aquatic pets. I used 3 moths but any flying pet(s) will do! :)

Commento di Hazipalesz

Pretty easy solo with Amber Moth(1,1,2)!

Commento di 1594305

Can be solo'd using a Mechanical Axebeak (1,x,1)
Just use Decoy on cd and spam Alpha Strike. It'll be a close one. So might need a backup pet if you get unlucky critical hits.
Good luck!

Commento di meowchelle

I was almost able to solo this with Direbeak Hatchling (121).
If you bring a carry pet, put them in first and let them attack once. Then switch to Direbeak Hatchling against the first two pets.
Use Ironskin, Falcosaur Swarm!. Use Predatory Strike when the enemy is at half health.
When Direbeak dies switch to another flying pet to finish off the last pet. (I used Teroclaw Hatchling (221)).

Commento di Hsilia

Soloed with Gilnean Raven 2/2/1, use call darkness on cooldown, nocturnal strike on cooldown but only if darkness is still up, and fill with alpha strike. (Watch out for the weather changing into rain on pet #3, save the nocturnal strike in that case.)

Probably got a bit lucky with RNG, so take another flyer like a moth or even the very similar Crow just to be safe.

Commento di Dorkqween90

Easy solo w/ Teroclaw Hatchling 2-1-1
Dodge on cd, Hawk Eye + Alpha Strike combo and win! ^_^

Commento di Beriberi

First move causes no damage, you can start with a leveling pet and then swap to a moth.

leveling pet (400+)
amber moth 2-1-2
yellow moth 2-1-2

Moth Dust on cd, cocoon strike to avoid dive/on cd, fill with alpha strike.

Amber moth basically solo'd the fight, but got 2 lucky stuns and ended on 2 health. Leveling pet does take some damage from tidal wave, should have 400hp for safety.

Commento di chailon

2 pets and 1 carry/level pet setup

Commento di Bradwr

Was able to solo him with Junblebeak. Probably a bit of luck but Nocturnal Strike does huge damage to his crabs.

Commento di Tigerjenta

I used a lvl pet and 2 x Ikky with Black Claw and Flock on cd

Commento di ValeraL

I always was able to solo this battle with Direbeak Hatchling. But enemy pets use their ability in random order, so I would recommend to have another hatchling with Falcosaur Swarm! and Predatory Strike abilities in your team just in case.

Team:
Cucciolo di Beccotruce (H/P) - 1, 2, 1
Any hatchling with Falcosaur Swarm! and Predatory Strike abilities just in case

Start battle with Falcosaur Swarm!. At any random round Shelly will cast Whirpool. Use Ironskin when Whirpool will have 1 round left. Finish Shelly with Predatory Strike. Sometimes you will kill Shelly before he cast Whirpool. If this happens you are lucky, but it won't be often. After Shelly death use Ironskin and Predatory Strike whenever they become active. Of course use Predatory Strike only when enemy pet has Shattered Defences debuff from Falcosaur Swarm!. In other rounds use Falcosaur Swarm!.

Commento di blupache

Jade Owl makes this a bit of a joke.

It has all the same strong-versus-aquatic abilities as the other "my <insert flyer here> (nearly) soloed it" strats (Slicing Wind, anything in second slot, and Lift-Off)...

...however all Hermes' pets' abilities are weak versus magic. And Jade Owl is a magic pet, so it will solo it comfortably.

PS. For reference, Hermes' pets are:
Shelly
Sheldon
Shelby

Commento di Blazingpaw

I used just Chi-chi and he singlehandedly soloed all three crabs, Alpha strike, Ethereal and Tranquility.

Commento di hunnor

You can now use low level pets on these quests.If you use 3 level 1 pets, with no buffs, each gets 1 level and then another 75 XP. Make sure your pet can do damage with its level 1 ability and you should be good. The first 2 pets for this quest do Aquatic damage, so Magic is the best to bring. the 3rd pet does healing rain for its first ability, so does absolutely no damage to you. Good luck!

Commento di GrimmViper

Watch the whole strategy via this link - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aWWXpjcwPYk

Pets to Use

Leveling Pet at least level 10
Direbeak Hatchling 1-2-1
Ikky 1-1-1

Start with your Leveling Pet attack once and swap it for your Direbeak Hatchling. Then use iron skin
followed by falcosaur swarm then predatory strike to terminate Shelly.

Next is Sheldon, once again use falcosaur swarm, by the end of the swarm your Direbeak Hatchling
should be knocked out. So bring in Ikky and use black claw followed by flock to destroy Sheldon.

Shelby comes in and should get hit by the final round of flock, use black claw again
followed by flock to win the battle.

Family Battler teams

Humanoid
Harpy Youngling(1,1,2) dominates this fight. Flyby first against each new target, Lift-Off to avoid Whirlpool or Dive hits (or as burst damage vs Shelby), Quills as filler.
Anubisath Idol(1,1,2) makes a safe backup.

Dragonkin
I used a couple of Sprite Darter Hatchling(1,2,2)/Nether Faerie Dragon(1,2,2) with a Spawn of Onyxia(2,1,1) as backup (wasn't used).
Maintain Cyclone, Slicing Wind for filler, my first Hatchling was able to kill Shelly with <400 hp remaining, which lead to a nice Life Exchange on Sheldon.

Captain Hermes is located at:

/way Drustvar 21.4 66.4 Captain Hermes

Note before starting: I tried my very best to not include store bought pets, TCG pets, pets that you have to get a specific breed, and very hard to get pets. For a few fights I did have to use pets with a specific breed because I was spending hours trying to perfect a strat and it just wasn't working without a certain breed. Also, a lot of the BfA fights don't have rigid movesets like previous expansions did. For a lot of these new fights, you have to be a bit more flexible. Use these strats as a guideline :) Please feel free to send me a message in-game at Gabrielle-Whisperwind. I do not usually check the comments because I have *literally* thousands of posts and I will most definitely miss a question, or any suggestions on tweaking a strat.

The rest of the strats you can find here: Family Battler

Addons I definitely recommend:
Battle Pet BreedID - helps you determine which breed your pet is!
Rematch - changes the Pet Journal UI and adds SO much for you for sorting, adds a leveling pet queue, etc. There's seriously a lot. My favorite is that it lets you save teams!
PetTracker - Shows you the cooldowns of the enemy team. VERY IMPORTANT. Also shows you trainers on your map. For some reason not all of them are listed in the basic WoW UI.

Commento di B4mbi

Each pet family with peck would do the trick for the achievement, but i had hard time with the Undead family. I did not had the rigth pets. I used the following team for it and my first pet solo'd the fight, which i was not expecting.

My Undead family:
Figlio di Sethe: Absorb, Hiss, Lift-Off
Filatore Spettrale: Did not used
Draghetto della Piaga: Did not used

I used Hiss at start and did absorb till one round before the big damage comes. then i used lift-off and finished the job.
The moments for the lift-off are:

first fight when whirpool was on 1
second fight when enemy dived
third fight when my lift-off would kill him

I didn't have the pets with Peck that others advise to use so I used my Iron Starlette which Solo'd it (but it was close) Iron Starlette with another Starlette or just 2 other Mechanical should work fine

Commento di Nightjar

You can solo him with Feathers

Commento di infinitedreams

For Beast Mode I used a Zandalari Anklerender and a Zandalari Kneebiter with Black Claw and Hunting Party, and finished the fight with Xu-Fu, Cub of Xuen, but I only had to deal with Shelby, the last pet by then, so something else could work as well.

Commento di JonGhost52

Captain Hermes (pet battle in Drustvar) seems not to count towards "Beasts mode" achievement. I had a similar issue with Grady Pratt not counting towards "Fun with flying" and opened a ticket, the GM told me Blizzard is aware of a few bugs (he mentionned the other pet tamers Fizzie and Burly for "Fun with flying"). So I submitted a bug report for Captain Hermes.

Element of Success: Rapa Malefica 2/1/2, Cucciolo di Fenice 2/1/1, Vilfiamma 1/1/1
Tidal Wave until first pet casts Whirlpool, then Sons of the Root to avoid it. Leech Seed when you take damage.
When turnip dies, bring Phoenix Hatchling and alternate Peck and Cauterize as necessary. It probably won't make it until third pet.
Third pet does very little damage because it tends to just spam tidal wave. Immolate, Conflagrate, Burn as filler will make short work of it.

Magician's Secrets: Dragoserpe Scintillante 1/1/2, Istrice Spettrale 1/1/2 x2 (didn't need second one)
Drain Power > spam Feedback; Deflection when necessary to avoid Whirlpool/Dive. My wyrm made it to the last pet, and I finished it off with Spectral Spine > Spectral Strike.

Machine Learning: Miniserpe Volante Meccanica 2/2/2, Zeppelin di Lunacupa 2/1/2, Pirostellina di Ferro 1/2/1 (didn't need)
Strategy is the same throughout for Panda and Zepp: keep Thunderbolt/Bombing Run on CD, use Decoy to avoid Whirlpool/Dive, spam Flyby as filler.

Commento di Chromexk

Just solo'd this with a Gilnean Raven 2/2/1 used Nocturnal Strike and Alpha Strike on cool down. Maybe I was lucky, as NS only missed once and I did finish with 2 hp, but it worked! Hope this is helpful to someone.

Commento di grail89

For Hobbyist Aquarist using striders works well - take Pump and Healing Wave, spam Pump and use Healing Wave when they Dive.

Commento di Eluvia

Critters with Huge Teeth:

I used:
Bush Chicken - 1 1 2
Grassland Hopper - 1 2 1
Imperial Silkworm - 2 2 2 (did not even need it, the Hopper killed the second and third enemy pet).

Untethered wyrmling or mana wyrmling can solo this fight. Good for leveling pet exp.

Drain Power, Feedback, Feedback, Deflection (from Whirlpool or Dive). Rinse and repeat.

Commento di SCBose

Be sure to enjoy the Crab Fights happening right behind you when you finish with Captain Hermes!

"Two Stalks Charlie" went on quite a run while I was watching. Alas, he was finally defeated by Crusty Sean.

Aquatic:
Golden Civet (1,1,2)
Mirror Strider (1,1,2)
Leopard Tree Frog (1,1,1)

Beast:
Baby Elderhorn (2,1,1)
Lurking Owl Kitten (1,1,1)
Feline Familiar (Unused)

Critters:
Elfin Rabbit (2,2,1)
Dust Bunny (2,2,1)
Rabbit (2,2,1)

Shelly's Spiny Carapace (Shield) hurts you alot, but the two last pets are easy to take out.

Dragons:
Spawn of Onyxia (1,1,1)
Stormborne Whelpling (1,2,2)
Sprite Darter Hatchling (2,2,1)

Time your flight with Spawn of Onyxia, and you might live longer.

Elemental:
Molten Corgi (2,1,1)
Crimson Geode (1,x,2)
Electrified Razortooth (1,2,1)

Try to get off 2xPuppies of Flames with Molten Corgi through the fight, which means you swap in Crimson Geode to take care of the worst damage (burrow).Elementium Bolt should stun the first enemy pet. I only needed Electrified Razortooth one time through the fight and that was to Devour the last hp from the third and final pet (Shelby).

Flying:
Ikky (1,1,1)
Direbeak Hatchling (1,2,1)
Silky Moth (2,1,2)

Ikky does a really good job, but dies eventually after getting into fight with enemy pet 2. Direbeak Hatchling comes in and oneshots it after with Predatory Strike. Ironskin blocks most of the attacks. Did not need to use the third pet.

Humanoid:
Flayer Youngling (2, 2, 2)
Kun-Lai Runt (2,2,2)
Sunborne Val'kyr 1,2,1 -Not used

Pretty straightforward. You simply kill em.

Magical:
Soloed with Hyjal Wisp (1,1,1).
The two benched pets lost more HP than the Hyjal Wisp.

Mechanical:
Iron Starlette (1,1,1)
Clockwork Gnome (1,x,1)
Cogblade Raptor (2,1,1)

Iron Starlette:
Powerball
Wind-Up
Supercharge
Wind-Up
Iron Starlette kills the first two enemy pets like this.

Clockwork Gnome comes in:
Build Turret
Change to Cogblade Raptor
Exposed Wounds
Overtune/Batter the last pet until you have won.

Undead:
Frosty (2, 2, 1)
Unborn Val'kyr (x, 2, 2)
Crawling Claw (1, x, 1)

Use Ice Tomb to stun the enemy pet, Shriek to survive longer, and Frost Breath to nuke. Whenever you hit with Ice Tomb (I had 2 before Frosty died), Captain Hermes will swap pets. When Frosty died the two first pets had around 200 hp left each, which could easily be taken down with Unborn Val'kyr. Play her until she is low on hp, then Curse of Doom, and Unholy Ascension. Crawling Claw will finish the fight with Shadow Slash.

Team Amber Moth

1, 1, 2,
It was a 1 pet and killed them all for me, not sure if it was luck,
Started each with Moth Dust, saved cocoon for their Whirlpool, and Slicing Wind them all dead.. Done Boom.

Commento di beyere5398

Got all three with Mechanical Axebeak (121) and Ikky (111). Lead with Decoy on Mechanical Axebeak, then Haywire, then Alpha strike until the first one is dead. Then I switched to Ikky and did Black Claw, then Flock over and over until the second and third were defeated. Easy peasy.

Capitano Hermes is located right at the letter N of FALCONHURST on the map of Drustvar. But I do recommend the addon TomTom for usage of directives like this:

/way Drustvar 21.40 66.46 Captain Hermes

For the L'hobby dell'acquario it's an easy fight with any combination of three penguins level 25 rares like: Ser Freddolino, Pinguino della Tundra & Pengu and their common ability: Beccata (1,-,-). All of Capitano Hermes's battle pets (Scorzy, Crosty & Guscy) are crabs (aquatic) and weak against Beccata. Start the fight, and only use Beccata, don't bother with Ghiaccio Scivoloso (reducing the hit chance by 20% is not worth it). Actually, only needed two of the penguins.

Drain power, Feedback, Mana Surge, Feedback.
Repeat until Wyrm is dead.
Bring in Shimmering Wyrmling and do the same thing all over again.
Should result in three dead crabs.

I used 3x Occhio Arcano(1,1,2). (Good pets for alot battles or simple wins)
On shelby (third pet)start with Raggio Oculare, so you can attack first next round.(This is how I like it)

Muar at Lvl 2
Muar at Lvl 2 again
Jade Owl at Lvl 1 - (not needed but I swapped to it for the final strike because I wanted some xp on the owl).

For the Magic achieve I used:

Eldritch Manafiend 2,1,1
Erudite Manafiend 1,1,1 Could use Arcane Blast or Explosion, whichever you feel like,
Anything - I had Arcane Eye ready.

Amplify, Arcane Storm, Arcane Explosion to fill until Amplify is off CD, repeat.
When my second pet came in I used Amplify, Arcane Storm, then Arcane Blast to get the killing blow x3

For Hobbyist Aquarist

I used pets with pump heal and water jet H/S breeds, when I had them, such as striders.

Commento di ilostmahbucket

Hobbyist Aquarist
I didn't have penguins or enough striders, not perfect and some RNG but it seems reliable especially with 3 frogs.
Use frogs with Water Jet, Healing Wave, and Frog Kiss, with speed 257 or higher to ensure you Frog Kiss first. My B/B rare Jungle Darter killed two before dying with only one frog kiss proc, my second frog killed the last crab Shelby with 1/3 health (Shelby has 296 move speed).

Frog Kiss on cooldown, Healing Wave timed for any whirlpool, else Water Jet

Commento di HoustonBud

lvl 1 strategy: three magic; start with Elek Plushie (give one good Rawr!) I finished with Extinguished eye (who kills the first two); cleaned up with Spectral Porcupette. Full strength strategy: Direbeak or Ikky, lvl pet, and arcane eye.

Commento di Marenyalia

Magician's Secrets: Archivist's Quill (2,1,1) soloed this fight for me. Just spam quills. (I used Nevermore once before the first crab set whirlpool, but I don't think it's strictly necessary.)
