Honestly tamable? Wow.

Commento di Ruzan

Soloed this evening. Level 73 prot pally, had to bubble, this mob is a pain in the ass. The only special thing she does is she has a knockback, other than that, she hits hard and fast.

Commento di Pacotheparrot

He's pretty rough, I tried to solo him as a 73 BM hunter and he took my pet down in like 5-6 hits. I can see how high armor classes might be able to tackle him but for everyone else, check for a group.

Commento di 133003

Finally tamed this pet, after long time of trying.
Its the most good looking pet ive ever seen :).

Soloed on my level 73 Unholy Death Knight. Wound up in Ghoul form at the very end, but that was because I hadn't brought any potions. Death Strike will basically heal you for all you need in this fight, though.

Commento di Cylentmalice

Solo'd rather easily as a 75 prot pally. Only about 18k health and just used seal of light + judgement of light while keeping holy shield up. Not actually casting a heal, the whole fight left me with 0 mana and about 70% health left.

Commento di markweb

This mob appears to be immune to stun/snare.

Commento di 264371

Solo'd as a level 76 Blood Death Knight.

Hard and fast hitting mob.

Start off with Mark of Blood.

Full DPS with the Blood starter rotation.

Once all runes have been spent, you should have 100 Runic power, whip out the Dancing Rune Blade + Empower Rune Weapon and Heart Strike away, with the possibility of a few Death Strikes.

Follow that with DPS rotation including Death Strikes as appose to Obliterate and keep Vampiric Blood along with Icebound future going and you should be fine.

Give or take a few pots.

Commento di TheMaelstorm

First, I would like to add she doesnt just knock you back (as stated above), but also casts some kind of cloud that decreases your attack and casting speed (the ability is found in the list)

Tried as a 75 rogue with a hybrid build... was going to end as a disaster, then a... i think 72 priest came in to help. Even then it was kinda hard, but my build/items are really not optimal. Still, i dont think a rogue can solo it. No stuns, no weapon to disarm, just 1 spell to clos but he casts it all the time..
Would be much easier if a tank held aggro though, probably two-mannable with a tank+good dps w/o heals (im thinking, war=low dmg taken from him, other tanks=also can heal themselves).

Commento di 102350

very hard for me, he has 118k hp, cant be solo'd...

Commento di 148327

I can't solo those 100k+ mobs with a priest... oh well...

Commento di 282530

soloed as 74 sl/fg lock. this was the hardest of the group quests in Dragonblight for me to solo (besides kreug oathbringer who I can't solo) I used only used siphon life and corruption for damage + pet healing to not draw aggro but I still had issues with aggro. I would suggest watching your aggro very closely and holding back on damage as Elvador recommended above.

Commento di deolrin

Tameable, and is the closest thing to the Owl Scout unit from Warcraft III.

Commento di Aravind

t can be tamed. set a frost trap thenwalk backa bit. shoot a concussive shot then start the tame. the frost trap should freeze it ad not interrupt the taming process. Wonder if it would have the same amount of health then.

Commento di 177093

Thought I had soloed him has a 75 blood DK but realized when he died an unholy DK had come along and helped me. And I nearly died a couple of times. Pretty hard, but probably doable.

Commento di Hidden

(Only speaking of quest gear, may differ for epiced out characters)
I wasn't able to do it as 73 Ret in Ret gear but it was quite doable as 74 Ret in Holy gear, just move out of the Clouds, use Judgement of Wisdom and Seal of Wisdom and keep yourself topped all the time.

Commento di 21986

Hibernate doesn't work. Hits for 1200-1500 on normal hits on leather. Has 118k health.

Commento di Thalastor

Soloed as a 76 elemental shaman. Mostly level 70 pvp and badge gear. Flame Shocked at the start, spammed lesser healing wave, refreshed water shield, flame shock, or cast a lava burst when i was reasonably ok on health. Got an add about half way, but was able to continue healing through the damage. Took me a few tries, but doable.

Commento di bladewarriors

Solo'd it as a level 73 Blood Death Knight.
(16k HP in Frost Presence)

Commento di 42461

No chance of soloing on my 76 frost mage.

Cannot be snared by frost nova.

Commento di wizdro

Just soloed as a 72 Blood DK with 482 defense (mostly quest gear, a handful of gear from BC instances), 13k hp in frost.

Keep up plagues, Blade Barrier with liberal Death-Strikes, throwing in an Icebound Fortitude, Mark of Blood and Blood Tap when it's cool. Will of the Necropolis probably made it possible. I had to Death Pact and down a Super Healing Potion once. I'm not sure if it did much, since I seemed to float at 30% from Will of the Necropolis the second half of the fight. Good luck, DKs, you are a hero class, let it show.

Commento di Gunny

Did him on a lv 80 hunter with full t7.5, envoy of mortality, the works, he almost killed my pet and i pulled aggro 4 times, and he almost killed me, he casts his spell thing ALOT.

dont solo if you have no way of healing yourself

Commento di 68702

Soloed as an Enhancement Shaman (lvl 75) in mostly Northrend quest gear (the good blues etc). 9k health, 7k mana.

Put up totems (Healing Stream, Windfury, Strength of Earth and Fire Elemental) and burned all my cooldowns (wolves, bloodlust, AP trinkets, the works). You probably need to be lvl 75 for the new rank of Healing Wave (which you'll need to keep yourself alive even with the wolves). Try to squeeze in a few LBs when you're not taking too much damage. Keep a pot ready for the early phase of the fight when you don't have a 5 stack of MW ready to heal.

Commento di 140083

solo as 74 blood death knight with blood aura and frost presence. Try to use death strike and rune tap very often. In additional you can use Dancing Rune Weapon for higher damage, Mark of blood, vampiric blood to boost the heal of your blood aura and etc. Don't forget to use Icebound Fortitude too.

Commento di wizdro

Why was I rated down, when I said more or less the same thing as kalintohu, and he was rated up?

Commento di art3x

Easily soloed him at 76 with a hybrid blood tanking build on my DK. Just used Death Strike and sac'd my ghoul when he was nearly dead to make sure nothing stupid happened.

Easy kill

Commento di trillz

Solo'd as a 74 demo/affli lock used FG only kept CoA + SL up and Health Funneled the whole fight, took 2mins~

Commento di Uoyredrum

Solo'd as a lvl 73 Blood DK in frost presence. He hits pretty hard but it's mostly his large health pool that makes him a pain to deal with. Just stagger your cooldowns (IBF + MoB), and use death strike anytime its available while spamming heart strike and ghoul sac when necessary. It's a decently long fight because of his health but it's do-able.

Commento di 302741

After several tries, finally soloed him as a L74 retribution paladin. Used shield and 1h weapon with devotion aura. Blessing of wisdom, seal of light and stay out of the dream cloud. The hard part is staying out of the cloud, because that will make you heal too slowly to keep up with the damage the bird does.

First priority, stay out of the cloud. Second priority, stay healed. Third priority, do damage. :)

Commento di 235966

I got to tame him at time of this post as a lvl 75 hunter, with my Priest friend lvl 80, who buffed me up and bubbled me, the only thing was the buffet is random and when it hits it breaks taming so took a number of goes to get him. On the last attempt he didn't buffet once and I got him, one thing I did notice was he is more likely to buffet if you summon him when he is already air born as opposed to resting on his perch.
So I have been able to tame four rare eleite pets
Olm the wise from Fel Wood, Sian-Rotam from Winterspring, Hozzer from Howling Fjord and now my final pet Alystros the Verdant Keeper

Commento di 146819

He's one of those mobs who make you wish you could keep attacking even after he's dead...

Anyway: solo'd on second try as 74 (Frost tank) DK. First time was in my soloing gear; got him down to about 10% before I died (almost halfway across the grove; damn the Blizzard devs who decided to give this guy a knockback). Second attempt, threw on my tank gear, Elixir'd, and went at it. Had to use a Runic health pot and my tank macro (Unbreakable Armor + IBF), as well as Death Strike spam.

One thing to share for melee people: there's a tree near his spawn point. If you drag him over to the tree and put your back to it, you'll get knocked into the air a little bit, but you'll barely move other than that (for some reason, it causes the "No path available" message for Pestilence >.<).

Commento di 143194

Tried to solo once as a beast mastery hunter, 76. It's a week later and my pet is still ticked off at me. That is one nasty debuff.

Commento di 0liver

Wasn't hard as a 73 Blood DK. No CDs, elixirs or potions used.

For DKs.: Just remember to keep your diseases up, and do death strike every time you can. When Frost and Unholy runes are on CD, heart strike, then Death Coil.

Piece of cake!

Commento di HeavenMace

Easily solod as a 73 retribution paladin.Same as fighting a normal monster,Divine Storm,Crusader Strike,Judgement of Light and Hammer of Wrath.

The only problem was that I had to jump all the time to hit him with melee.

Commento di 333326

Solo'd him with my lvl 77 prot warrior hard as crap even with my avoidance gear on had 2k health left.

-And as a tip to other prot warriors when you need to heal use last stand commanding shout then enraged regen for max health gain.-

Commento di Bamsemums

Soloed him as a 73 prot paladin.

Had Devotion Aura, Imp Righteous Fury, Blessing of Wisdom, Seal of Wisdom up at all times and used Judgement of Wisdom for maximum mana regen as i needed to use Holy Light alot in this fight. I saved my mana for Holy Light in this fight and mostly only used melee and Judgment of Wisdom as damage spell.

The trick here is to stay out of his AoE smoke becouse it is a real pain, not only for your dps, but also that you need to use Holy Light quite often in this fight, so whenever he does that, you need to get out of the smoke ASAP. You also have to watch out for his knockback ability, also for 2 reasons. One is that it can interrupt your heal, and that could be fatal. The other one is that it can push you back into a flower or another owl (Taking a beating from the big owl is enough, trust me).

What i did after engaging is using my trinkets whenever they are ready (only have dps trinkets) and used Holy Light when i had less than 3000 health. Holy Shield is needed at all times, becouse he hits hard!

When i had to low mana for Holy Light and had about 5-10% hp left, i used Divine Shield and Bandaged, maked me survive for another 30 sec of the fight, so i had enough mana again for a few more Holy Lights. Then when i again had to low mana to heal and starting to drop, i used mana potion for a few at the spot. By the time i again have low hp and no mana, i use Divine Shield again and bandages. That's another 30 sec of my life. When i AGAIN get low on hp and out of mana, i used Lay of Hands. Full hp and 900 mana in a instant, i could fight a few minutes more with Holy Light with me. I used Divine Shield for the last time when i started to hit 10% and out of mana, did another bandage and finaly killed him.

Took me about 15 minutes to kill this damn bird >.<

Commento di 391784

killed as lv 74 beast mastery hunter (51/14/0 for the talents) in the first attempt.

my devilsaur went for dmg talents only, therefore had only around 9,7k health and 50% armor reduce.
use misdirection when possible, 100% uptime for mend pet is required as one missing tick may already be deadly to your pet.
use distracting shot every now and then and also whenever your pet falls below 35-50% hp. run a few yards to let mend pet regain some health and get some distance for the next taunt, then feign death. you won't stand in the AoE for long as a side effect, too. not that i would recommend to stand in it, that debuff can really hinder your pet's threat generation...
the pet should be able to live through all of the fight with this, just make sure serpent sting is always up and regain mana with the viper aspect when needed.

Commento di 392438

Extremely easy to solo as a level 76 tank geared Frost DK, but the gear rewards are of no use... The gold / XP are nice though. I got 9k XP for the kill (rested, essence of WG).

I used my standard single-target rotation along the lines of IT, PS, BS, BS, DS then RS / FS for runic dump, with a couple of extras thrown in as felt necessary. I summoned a ghoul for good measure and used Icebound Fortitude and Unbreakable Armour for damage control. The lowest my health dropped throughout the fight was 14k / 17k. I expected a bit more of a struggle... Next!

Commento di manta6000

Tamed at level 74. The knockback was a pain in the rear and my small group played owl ping-pong with him at times. I went in with an 80 resto shaman and an 80 feral druid. The druid didn't do much, but the shaman tossed heals while I fought to keep the bird's attention on me.

I could fire off some Distracting Shots to get Alystros to aggro me so I could cast the tame, but I ended up going OOM a few times anyway. I was able to pot and the druid tossed a few Innervates. I even pulled out some of the old +haste drums to try to get a tame through before I hit another knockback, but that interrupt hit me about three times before I finally got the tame off.

I'm never going to get rid of this bird. He took way too much effort to get.

Commento di ir0npanda

JUST soloed now as level 72 protection warrior. I am in T4/ZA mix gear. Took a while (4-5 shield block rotations) and required a potion, retaliation, shield wall, but NOT last stand. First 2 tries i kept getting stupid lasher adds which do about 600 magic damage every 3-4 seconds which quickly led to my deaths. Third time i went around and killed EVERY SINGLE PLANT before I tried it and it worked :P

Commento di ShiroRX

solo'd at 73 w/ fg/sl. still very tough. keep ur eye on pet's health and never drop health funnel except to refresh corruption/coa.

let corruption/coa tick him down while pet tanks, you can health funnel him all day. didn't pull aggro.

died the first time because i underestimated how much dmg that stupid bird actually does. DO NOT STOP FUNNEL!

Commento di 148860

Easily solo'd as a level 74 Protection Paladin.

Commento di lfrit

impossible to solo as a non bm hunter

Commento di SpectraKitty

He's not tameable. I tried to tame him and it said invalid target. U guys/gals can 4get about that elite bird.

Commento di 78287

Soloed Him as a level 75 protection warrior one attempt. He may have gotten nerfed because I wasnt getting hit too hard.

Keep Shield Block up, It's helpful. Make sure not to stand in the cloud as it reduces your cast and attack speed. Second make sure you have the area clear, his wing beat pushes you back and could cause potential agro.

Commento di Enthorn

Sweet mother of god. This guy is a beast to solo at low levels. I've been able to solo every group quest so far (outside of dungeons of course), and save for a few notable ones in which I had some extra help for parts of them (The Ring of Blood, The Crimson Courier).

I see that pretty much everyone here soloed this guy at around level 74 (73-75 seems to be the range), and everyone either had a tank (pet), or was a tank (prot).

I died twice trying to solo this guy, and finally killed him the third attempt, at level 72, as a ret paladin. I used everything (divine shield, lay on hands, avenging wrath, potions, trinkets, etc.)

A lot of it comes down to pure luck. I have 11,000 health and 9000 armor (~44% physical damage reduction). If you don't get constant Art of War procs, you will die. It's also very important to move out of the clouds he puts down. If you don't move out, there is more time between your attacks, which means less attacks to proc Art of War off of.

I spammed Judgement of Light/Crusader Strike/Divine Storm and used Flash of Light every time Art of War procced. It's best to use FoL when AoW procs even if you're only down 1000 health, because 1) You can benefit from the HoT from Sheath of Light if it crits and 2) You don't want to get another Art of War proc on top of one another, since that's wasted heals, and you will die.

His melee swing was hitting me anywhere from 1000 to 1400. When he does Talon Strike (~1300), you can really see the spike in damage. I don't know if Talon Strike can crit, but his melee swing can (crit me for 2400).

I was using Seal of Light, +20 Stat Battle Elixir, +350 health guardian elixir, +285 armor scroll (+43 STA is preferable though), devotion aura, and +40 STA food.

One thing you'll notice is that it's really hard to stay topped off as ret. My health was continuously dropping. You'll need to pop bubble at some point and heal to full, and probably use Lay on Hands some time after that as well. It would probably help if I wasn't level 72 and wasn't ret specced, but nonetheless, it's doable.

Commento di 158727

Soloed as a 73 Prot Paladin. Seal of Light, Judgement of Light.

Just let yourself fall below 35% and you'll never lose any more health thanks to Ardent Defender.

Finished the fight with 100% mana and 36% health bare bones tanking.

Commento di 10100_

Solo'd as a lv 75 draenei prot warrior. had to pop my racial heal and enraged regeneration, but other than that it was pretty easy. Just have to keep shield block up. Stuns don't work on him, but if your block value is good enough, you can negate almost all of his damage with a block. I also tried on my arms spec, but I just took way too much damage. The negation from prot is a must. I just used my normal rotation. Use Shield Slam, shockwave and revenge whenever it's up, spam devastate in between CD's.

Commento di ajartfuldodger

Solo'd as a 74 enh sham...on the 3rd try...>.> blew every cooldown i had...
keep your back to the wall...

Commento di 556372

Guys... For tame this Pet the REAL problem he's use http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=51938 and that will knocking you back and cut the tame cast and you will be already loss 80% HP....
So what to do? ^^

Commento di 61226

Soloed as a 75 prot paladin. I was wearing all of the Tempered Saronite gear I can at 75, with the rest either Cobalt or green/blue quest rewards.

Sealed and judged Light, with regular buffs (Righteous Defense, Blessing of Sanctuary), plus an Onslaught Elixir and a +20 str scroll. Just used a standard rotation of judge/hammer/holy shield/SoR, without Consecration, Divine Plea up at all times, and Hammer of Wrath mixed in whenever possible after he went below 20%.

Took a long time, but he doesn't hit hard and I was never in danger of dying. I don't think my health ever dropped below 80%, so no cooldowns needed.

Commento di 33463

Aff lock, just solo'd at 77. Let voidwalker sit on him, kept CoW and Corruption on him, occasionally UA until my threat was too high. Something I did was I kept my voidwalker's back to the mountain wall so the knockback wouldn't move him or myself. Just heal the VW. Might take a little time with only corruption, but at this point in the game, it's nearly impossible to find people on this quest chain unless you are on a high pop realm.

Commento di 626230

soloed him as a 73 prot paladin took like 10min but died in first try

Commento di SyKoticOrKa

I solo'd him on my 80 BM hunter with boar pet. Killed the pet in the end, even with constant healing, but had already taken out 98% of the bird's health by this stage, and finished him off with some melee dps using daggers (the only thing I had on aside from ranged weapon). Aside from using a single health pot I had no trouble.

Commento di vulpedamian

Soloed as 75 restoration druid with account items and blues from instances as high as Nexus and UK. First tried as moonkin but died instantly then switched to resto. Kept myself up with rejuvenation and lifebloom with 3 stacks until they expired, then recast them while damaging him with thorns and moonfire when mana allowed. When i was low on mana i would wait for innervate to recharge and kept myself up with the mana returned from lifebloom while only damaging with thorns. Of course, this was a long fight and over 45 minutes had passed until it was over.

Commento di Slania

Soloed as a level 74 BM hunter, turtle pet with glyped Mend Pet. MD'd to pet, kept Mend Pet up, alternated between using shell shield and cower, dpsed as normal. Took a while to get him down but it wasn't much trouble :). Good luck!

Commento di 662610

Soloed as level 75 Unholy DK (2nd spec) Blood presence by accident took 4 mins. Had 3 curse's on target at all times used Death Strike to heal 2.5k each hit. Rune Tap for when my unholy runes and frost runes were in CD. had to sacrifice my ghoul then summon it back again.

Commento di snowolf

Solo'ed as demonology warlock till 20%, lvl 72 with mediocre gear and no heirlooms. Pretty much played it safe and just kept health funnel up 100% of the time, the pet was rarely below 75% hp. I'd have got him if it wasn't that a horde saw fit to kill me :D

Commento di 95972

Soloed as a level 73 Arcane Mage. Barely.

In patch 4.0.6, we now have Spellsteal at level 70. I noticed that the Focus Wizards in the Azure Dragonshrine (just west of the Emerald Dragonshrine) had this buff granting 30% spell haste.

I stole that and blew everything on this damn bird - Arcane Power, Mirror Image, Improved Mana Gem, trinket, Potion of Wild Magic. I spammed Arcane Blast with the intention of killing him and going OOM. I needed to Evocate just as the clones died, and finished off Alystros with one last Barrage. We both went down. I ran back, looted, and picked up my shiny new belt.

Commento di Darkicon

Barely soloed with a 75 BM hunter with Glyph of Mend Pet and all healing increase talents with a Tenacity pet.

She hits quite hard. Just kept Mend Pet up at all times and made sure only to steal aggro to alleviate the damage on my pet so he could get some heals then Feigned Death (She'll kill you pretty fast) so my pet would retake aggro. Eventually my pet did die when she was down to around 3% hp and I only had around 3% as well, got really lucky that I still had Serpent Sting on her and killed her with a melee swing as I was attempting to run away.

Don't do what I did when I tried to solo her at level 73 as MM. Don't go to the lower part of the rock she is on because when she uses Wing Beat and knocks you off, you may get LoS'd from her and your pet. Also on this rock you only have one step between being too close for ranged attacks and falling off.

Commento di SaynaTheSpiffy

If you'd like the same pet without all the hard work, the nearby Emerald Skytalons are another option. As are the Emerald Spirits in Stonetalon.

Commento di 177917

Soloed as a lvl 73 Shadowpriest. Took me three attempts, but in the last one it went smoothly. I had to switch back and forth from shadowform to heal and let the dots tear at his HP, most of the time went to healing. Amazingly i ended the fight with my mana at approx. 80 %.

This was post-cata.

Commento di paperless

Was able to solo it with a lvl 72 holy paladin. Nearly went out of mana (used pvp gear) and had to use divine shield in between :s

Commento di zezua

with the glyph of mending and a tenacity pet like the worms is was very very easy, just make sure that your mend pet is active at all time

Commento di 881882

Easy to solo as Blood DK, level 72

Commento di 998511

Just solo-ed this bastrd on my 72 subtlety rogue! I was just using hemorrhage till it filled up the combo points then eviscerate, and repeat. Got me down to 270 health out of 9,607. It is possible for a rogue to solo it, so good luck.

Commento di BarbaricGoose

My Warcraft III knowledge is a little fuzzy after all these years, but if you look at the item used to summon Alystros, Skytalon Molts, I believe the icon is the same as the WCIII Sentinel ability that some units could use, such as the Night Elf Huntress. It summoned an owl to reveal an area of the map, and that owl looked almost identical to Alystros.

So yeah... fun fact, I guess. And as of Cataclysm, this guy only has 20k HP.

Commento di 1289324

hey

Just posting that tameing this pet does not classafy as killing it for the quest and it takes about 30 seconds to respawn

Commento di Naarbeleth

Alystros retains his full name after the tame. I submitted a screenshot, but I'm not sure they'll allow it :)
Also, it seems that he is only activatable while on The Plume of Alystros quest.

Commento di HushGlowie

Alystros the Verdant Keeper is a bird of prey with a gem-like appearance that resides in the Emerald Dragonshrine in Dragonblight. He does keep his full name after taming, and can only be summoned during The Plume of Alystros quest. To pick up this quest you merely need to complete the one quest prior; Cycle of Life, which can be obtained from Nishera the Garden Keeper. You don't need to be on the quest to tame him, and he can be summoned by someone else (like Echeyakee for Alliance hunters).

Alystros il Custode Verdeggiante
