Finalmente dopo ormai quasi 10 giorni di andare e venire da Tanaris questa sera alle 23.45 circa
mi teletrasporto e trovo una tempesta di sabbia ,basta andare dove si trovano questi piccoletti ed
eccoli li ne ho presi 3 di cui uno raro.
Il modo migliore per pigliarli e prendereun posto in una taverna del posto ed andari 2-3 volte al giorno,oppure fatev un accampamento sul posto e aspettate...

Silithid? What are silithid doing here... /tinfoilhat

Commento di Wamo

One of the weather-dependent wild battle pet spawns. They spawn in Tanaris during a Sandstorm, and can be found in the Noxious Lair and Gaping Chasm.

Pet Journal Lore:

“These hatchlings entertain themselves by clacking their mandibles together in increasingly complex rhythms.”

Commento di brionl

I came into Tanaris while a Sandstorm was already in progress. Didn't see any around for almost 45 minutes, then 2 spawned at each site (another person in my guild was at the other site from me). Sandstorms seem to last a long time, so keep at it.

Commento di ToeTag

One of the weather-dependent pets.

Uncommon Stats:

Does anybody know if there is a way to lol predict the weather? Is there something that can notify you? Or do you just have to test your luck all the time?

Commento di zharshoul

So im in tanaris during a sandstorm checking out the bug lairs... nadda

not sure if this is a crossrealm zone issue or what, is this another zones standstorm or mine or what

Commento di 968833

I hate these weather dependant spawn pets even if the weather is right they still dont spawn

Im in tanaris and there is a massive sandstorm and ive been waiting for over 30 mins and nothing not a thing

Commento di cadred

Logged into a sandstorm at 10:00 server on Winterhoof (not sure if I'm on my server) and been looking for 30 min...... Nada. have to leave in 5 min. boo hoo.

Anyone got any idea of how often these storms occur? every 4 hours, 8 hours, 2 hours? Any ideas?

Commento di 645883

Does anyone know if all of Tanaris has sand storms when it happens or if it's like the Piccola Scimmia where the island has a different weather system associated with it?

Commento di interloper

How exactly do these sandstorms look like? Can anyone submit a photo, please?

Commento di lapdragon

Had a sandstorm @ 1:30 AM EST (on Medivh) but by the time I arrived all the hatchlings were gone, and no more appear to be spawning.

Commento di lloladin123

if you wana catch any of the rare pets the best way is to check the spot they spawn in and go there evry hour thats how i got all my rare pets^^ like (baby ape)

Commento di Fhina

A sandstorm has been raging on Thrall and not a single Silithid Hatchling to be found at either location after flying around back and forth, and checking about twenty mins later.....as an aside, it happened to be raining at precisely the same time at Jaguero Island (Baby Ape location - needs to be raining). Wonder if they always happen at the same time?

Update: There was a bug with a number of pets not spawning during the weather conditions they required, but they've since been fixed. That both zones had the same weather was apparently a coincidence.

Commento di 82728

Ok, I feel I have to write this for those claiming it's bugged

I was in Tanaris. When the sandstorm started 20 of them spawned at their designated location. (see map above)
I killed all 20 of them. Got 2 Greens and others were all poor quality.

After I killed those 20, I found only 3 more. (those might have been new spawn or I might have missed them on the first round) And after that they stopped spawning and I haven't seen a single one during the rest of the sandstorm.

So if you came during a sandstorm and couldn't find any - someone already cleared them in the first few minutes.

-edit-
Stayed there for more than 30 mins didn't see any new re-spawns.

-edit2-
Came back again later. Sandstorm was still raging. No new re-spawns.

Based on this, I'll assume they only spawn when the Sandstorm starts and don't re-spawn after.

Commento di AzerateAeriePeak

Definitely not bugged, just caught one during the sandstorm, first time I actually caught a weather dependent pet ^^

Commento di Hashupa

Showed up about 5 minutes too late after a sandstorm started. Turns out a single person had cleared every single one of them out... I know this because he was on my faction and was able to tell me, all too smugly I might add.

People, please don't be that selfish. I've said it before and I'll say it again, in 5.1 there will be a way to upgrade battle pets! Any time you clear out rare pets like this, you are only hurting someone else's chance at seeing this pet, which isn't fair to anyone. Catch ONE and then go about your own business.

EDIT: Finally, after a few weeks of enduring extremely greedy farmers, I came in to the tail end of a hatchling massacre, only to be lucky enough to get an uncommon. On my way out, I saw another one, standing by itself on a hill. You know what I did with it? I left it for the next person who (hopefully) didn't have one yet.

Good luck to those who don't have one yet. My advice is remain vigilant and more importantly BE POLITE! No need to harass someone, even if they are emptying the spawns. You're much better off leaving them alone. If it helps, just put them on your ignore list.

Commento di 943807

Been camping with my DK here at either of the 2 Silithid spawning spots, sandstorms no sandstorms and NO sight of this elusive Silithid Green Paw.

That is until this morning, when I logged in to a sandstorm and 7 green paws sorrounding my DK!

My 6 yr. old daughter was here with me, she loves helping her old Dad find these green paws, and was uber excited when I asked her to pick one for us to capture!

She's had this insane high % of picking paws and they end up being rares for me.....and once again her magic worked on this cool looking little guy!

His stats were as follows:
Health = 787
Power = 135
Speed = 135

Now if she could only help her old man when it comes to picking the right Mega Millions numbers........lol !

Good Luck to all in their Battle Pet Conquests/Captures!

ps - Just on a side note, Hashupa's post below couldn't be more on the money....similar situation had happened to me with a fellow guildie and when he had bragged it up in guild chat the other day how he loved killing all battle pet mobs to make it hard for others seeking to capture whatever pet it was he wiped out, needless to say he was the recipient of some venomous replies from a bunch of us that read his comment.

The implementation of these upgrade stones is a great idea by Blizz, I'm sure a portion of their reasoning to have this addition to the game is so dopes like my fellow guildie will "HOPEFULLY" be less inclined to slay mobs of spawned battle pets and allow others the same luck that they had in finding whatever pet it may be, ESPECIALLY frustrating on those that are uber-hard to find.

Commento di Galaxas

I would suggest parking your toon at the Gaping Chasm while you watch a movie or do some housework, because once a sand storm starts you immediately get to feast on over 50 of these little buggars just in this spot.

I lost count of how many I blew through before finally getting my rare, but it was well over 50. I had all of the spawns at Gaping Chasm cleared out, and then I hearthed to let collectors in trade chat know about the sand storm. I flew over Noxious Lair before hearthing, and there was around 30 there. No one else was in Tanaris at this time.

The storm started at about 5:30 est, and it had to of lasted well over an hour. It was about 6:15 when I hearthed.

If you're on a busy server, I wouldn't suggest blowing through them like I did, but I spammed general chat before I did this and got no answers, nor did anybody show up. I think I was just in the right place at the right time. Happy Hunting fellow pet collectors! :)

Commento di normajt

Perhaps a silly question, perhaps not..

Do the sandstorms effect the entire map of Tanaris, or so the storms hit areas randomly?

In over 5 years of playing never really spent too much time on this map to know the answer myself.

Thanks for any answers to come!

Commento di Wark

Keep in mind that the rule of cherrypicking applies to minipet battles as much as it does to things like fishing nodes: if everyone in the zone is only using up one kind of pet battle and leaving the rest, eventually you will run out of that one kind. So if the only people fighting minipets during a sandstorm are all hungrily pouncing the silithids, you're probably going to run out and stay out because all the respawns came back as yet another beetle.

Commento di 869144

I had a sandstorm today and I spent the whole hour checking both hives without a single Silithid Hatchling spawning at all.

I then started a ticket and talked to a GM to check if it was bugged or not. He basically said that the team couldn't work out if it was bugged or not, because some people can catch them just fine and others can't even see any.

So if you're one of the unlucky ones (like me), you might want to wait until the next patch or so before attempting to get this pet.

Commento di 1046597

Your best bet is to be there when the sandstorm starts. Dozens of spawns in each cluster will pop up, but may get quickly farmed; new spawns occur over time if the sandstorm holds, but slowly.

Keep in mind that there is not really any sound effects to a sandstorm. You can't simply stay in Tanaris with WoW minimized in the hopes of hearing it; that won't work. I ended up working at my desktop with WoW in a window so that I could keep watching the gameplay screen for the sandstorm to occur. After several days I eventually caught the beginning of a sandstorm, and my Hatchling.

Good luck!

Commento di Equeon

So I had several alts parked in Tanaris on various servers, and actually stumbled upon a sandstorm on my main. The hatchlings were quickly gobbled up by people passing by, but I managed to snag an uncommon one. However, just about two hours later, another sandstorm occurred on the same server: and no hatchlings spawn. My theory is that the silithid hatchlings will only spawn on the first sandstorm of each day.

Commento di Vana21

I parked a character in Tanaris waiting for a sandstorm to come. I logged in at 1am on Tichondrius with a sandstorm in progress. Immediately looked at both hives and saw no hatchlings.
A little discouraged, I flew back and forth for 20 minutes and then I saw one. He was gone before I could reach him. 13 minutes later I saw another which I was able to get to, and then about 5 more.
They'll keep coming, Don't give up!

edit: The sandstorm lasted about 2 hours for me.

Commento di togahsisoka

May have been sheer luck, but I checked in right after a server restart and there was a Sandstorm + tons of these guys...

I don't know if there is a higher chance of a sandstorm event right after a server restart, but it can't hurt to chack b/c it's less likely someone beat you there by 20 min and cleared them all...

Oh, and finally, when I got my baby ape, exact same situation so maybe right after restart is a good time to check for these weather dependent pet...

Commento di aspasito

I've been camping in Tanaris for a while for this baby, and today I finally got a level 13 rare with the following pre-capture stats:

710 Health
150 Power
135 Speed

Also, the storm lasted for more than 55 minutes (thats when I left, maybe longer), and they kept respawning (heavily farmed by several characters), although at a very slow rate; after cleaning the initial mass spawn, only 1 or 2 were seen at a time.

Good luck all!

Commento di thatmikeguy

CRZ broken!

If your (local time) is behind the (realm time), you may never see one of these! Unless it goes a full hour (or more) of nobody capturing them (doubtful). The weather is NOT tied with all zones at the same time, and the pet does not spawn with each local time.

I joined with people from other servers to make sure this was the case.

GM response:

Game Master Glanren here! Thank you for contacting the World of Warcraft Game Master Department.

Different world events throughout the non-Pandaria zones may in fact be affected by Cross Realm Zones due to differing timezones for what server may be hosting a particular zone. I do very much apologize for any confusion or frustration this may have caused you.

Commento di zein2624

Just had a sandstorm no spawns though, logged out then in on my character parked in the storm peaks, low and behold it was snowing,
Took approximately 23 arctic fox kits to get my rare.Logged back over to my character in tanaris searched the two zones for silithid hatchlings and still no luck :(

Commento di kyler999

After spending several hours bouncing between the locatins during sandstorms, spoke with a GM and they said there is a problem with them not spawning, Blizzard is aware of the problem and is working to correct it.

Commento di Sasmina

I made a GM ticket to find out whether this pet was bugged or not as I waited ages in a sandstorm with no spawns.

I got the following response:

"I'm sorry that I didn't get to speak to you online, but I wanted to let you know that it doesn't appear the developers are aware of any problem with the spawning on those pets."

Seems like they're just rare or I've been very unlucky just not to find one.

NPC_SCAN doesn't seem to work for this, i'm guessing because of the Pet Journal loading it in.

Commento di Mantrhax

im really geting tired of this $%^&, everything in this game has some kind of bug, now theres a sandstorm all over the place, im flying betwen Noxious Lair and Gaping Chasm for the last hour and not a single Silithid hatchling...what ? another bug ? what ? again we loosing hour time thinking that this is working ? dam u blizzard

Commento di PewpewNL

Today from 12:00 till 14:55 I witnessed a Sandstorm in Tanaris. I was circling around in the Chasm with one account and in the Lair with my other account.

After 2 hours I hadn't seen 1 hatchling, so I decided to open up a ticket and after the best and funnyiest talk I ever had with a GM in 7 years he told me that there seems to be a BUG with the weather dependant pets at the moment, they seem to only spawn when the wheather "spawns".

His advice was to be either lucky enough to be there right away when it spawns, make a few circles and then just leave it alone.

TL;DR; There's a bug with them, they only spawn when the sandstorm starts.

Here's the screenshot I took from the funny chat I had with the GM, worth to read imo :p

Commento di 683070

Silithid Hatchlings only spawn during a Sandstorm - checking 3-5 times per day for 14 days I only saw two sandstorms. They affected the entire map.

Neither time did I see any hatchlings. They seem to spawn in large quantities at the start of the sandstorm. I did battle about 20 other pets during the sandstorm, but did not notice any spawns during the storm (about an hour). There were at least 3 others camping, who may have taken them before I noticed them though.

It seems the best way to search for this pet is to wait patiently for the Sandstorm to start, rather than checking for a Sandstorm and then searching for the pet - by that time they seem to have been farmed out and may not respawn.

Commento di Pwuebear

I finally logged in to a sandstorm where the silithids were up. The noticeable difference from previous sandstorms with no silithids up, at least to my recollection, is that the sandstorm has more prominent sand particles where the others I have experienced had virtually none, only clouds of dust. If these are tied together in any way I am not sure, as I have only seen the silithids up this once. If I come across another incident I will be sure to note it.

Commento di Dracornis

To the people that talk about sharing the spawns:
Sry.. but upgrading my pets won't count for the "Catch rares"-Achievement... so i will farm more rares this way...
may be the socially worst way... but hey.. why should i be the only good guy on the server?
in a anonym game like WoW the good people are the poor...

Commento di Kolbruns

In the last two weeks, four sandstorms without a single sighting of the green paw for a Silithid Hatchling. I opened a ticket and a GM thanked me for providing the dates, times and two servers where this occurred, Medivh and Earthen Ring. They are accumulating data and should forward to Developers for a possible hotfix or for the next patch. I believe it's the Cross Realm Zone screwiness as with the last sandstorm, one person replied that they'd gotten a green lvl,they were from another server, but I never saw a single one and that sandstorm lasted approx 50 mins.

Also, according to posts at Warcraftpets.com, they DON"T only spawn at the beginning of the storms which is good to know.(##RESPBREAK##)12##DELIM##Sas148##DELIM##Please do not encapsulate your entire post in \ tags. Thank you.

Commento di 930739

Checked on Tanaris every hour or so this week, two alts parked on two different realms and saw nothing. Hardcore camped the Noxious lair with many other people this Sunday after black friday.
At 5:40 PM a sandstorm began with no sign of the bug at both spawn points, flew back and forth between them. 5:49 logged into my alt on a low pop server to find no storm. Quickly logged back in to find a green paw waiting below me in the Gaping Chasm.
Keep in mind this area was heavily camped. In fact the one I found was right below two people. Either they were AFK or could not see it, I don't know. All I know is I got mine.
TLDR
Logged on to an alt parked on different server during a sandstorm found no storm, logged back to main found a Silithid, area was heavily camped 50+ people.

Commento di illiterate

It just started storming after maintenance, no hatchlings spawned.

I submitted a ticket and got this reply:

We are not aware of any bugs with this rarely spanwed pet. If you do feel it is bugged, please click the red "?" and "submit bug".

Commento di Jerenn

The spawns are DEFINITELY bugged. I waited here for 5 hours for a storm to appear. Just as the storm started, I saw 3 spawn on my map. I swooped down to click one, saw the tooltip of it as my cursor was over it, clicked... and it despawned. The other 2 on my map despawned at the same time. I spoke with another player in the area searching who had the exact same experience. I'm still waiting on feedback for my GM ticket but I believe it's safe to say it's not worth hunting this pet until Blizzard fixes it.

Commento di Aponina

I caught this pet yesterday, green quality, I saw eight sandstorm, pet respaw at the beginning sandstorm and is hear only 20-30 sec. Good luck(##RESPBREAK##)524##DELIM##MasterOfDisguise##DELIM##

Commento di TegoZanduba

Today's 'Hotfixes' note that "Silithid Hatchlings should now be less elusive."

I wonder what that'll mean? More during the sandstorm, or not only during the storm, or more storms?

Commento di Philster043

In the 5.1a hotfixes: "Silithid Hatchlings should now be less elusive."

I'm guessing they mean that they will now spawn properly during a sandstorm instead of only possibly spawning at the start of one.

Commento di 351364

I landed in Tanaris and a sandstorm was already raging. Can confirm there were tons of Silithid Hatchlings and they were spawning continually for the 20 minutes or so that I was there, never had any problems finding one to battle. Made it very easy for me and a friend to get a rare each.

Commento di Mormolyce

Patch 5.1 hotfixes (Dec 10, 2012):

Silithid Hatchlings should now be less elusive.

Not sure if this means they no longer have the weather requirement or if they've made the weather conditions more common.

Commento di nalorix

According to Blizzard the hotfix on 11/12/2012 Silithid Hatchlings will be less elusive. *Confirmed* I logged on in the middle of a sandstorm on 12/12/2012 and there were numerous Silithid Hatchlings respawning regularly in both the Noxious Lair & Gaping Chasm.

Commento di Starchy

Took me about two weeks of camping on 4 toons across 4 servers in order to get this little guy.From what I've gathered:

1. They do not spawn inside the tunnels (I felt silly asking this the first time, but I figured others might have the same question), only on the surface.
2. They do not respawn during the duration of the storm (others mentioned they do very slowly, but I've sat through an hour/two-hour storm with no greens paws).
3. You HAVE to be there at the start of the storm since only a few spawn at the start. Vaeflare (D3 community manager) also mentioned this to me on Twitter.

I decided to stay on just a few minutes longer while I went to get ready for bed with no storm up - came back 5 minutes later with a storm and 3 green paws on my map (I was at Gaping Chasm). I caught my first one, and when the battle was finished, the other paws were already gone.

Commento di 1008819

Does anybody know how often or when the sandstorms appear? I haven't seen one in weeks! Grr

Commento di 954889

I have been camping Tanaris since Tuesday maintenance, and finally a Sandstorm hit today around 3pm server.

As soon as the storm hit, a lot of Hatchlings had spawned, and they were respawning within a minute or two of being cleared, fast enough to where the 5 people I talked to were able to get a rare. They were respawning like that for the half hour I had staid out there, so I am guessing with 5.1 they will continue to do so for the entire duration of sandstorm.

Commento di Jolni

I can also confirm these now continue to spawn during the sandstorm, it was early Sunday morning and no one else was around, so I was able to continue to farm these until I had 3 rare's and pick the best, I also got a rare stinkbug, sand kitten and gold beetle so the second pets are not just filler trash.

Commento di Bengarion

They Changed Da Rules!

Good news and bad news.

1) The good news. The Silithid Hatchlings evidently have been put on "respawn" so there will be an abundant supply for all. At least as long as the sand storm rages on. There were about four of us gathering the pets and they kept on spawning. They were even spawning behind me after I had finished a battle. Yea spawns! (We were battling the hatchlings for about an hour and the supply never stopped.)

2) Now the bad news. Evidently the "Alt-F4" trick no longer works. If you do the Alt-F4 to quit the battle and log back in the pet you were battling is, gasp, GONE! So, now when you start a battle, you may as well finish it. I tried the Alt-F4 initially on the Silithid Hatchlings to "be polite" and save it for someone else. None were there when I logged back on. I went outside the area and did the Alt-F4 with other pets in Tanaris and the result was the same. After an Alt-F4 the pet was gone. No more saving the pet for others or regrouping if the battle starts to sour and you want to start over.

If your experience differs please comment. I just hope I'm very, very wrong on #2.

Commento di 1067845

Finally got mine on Aggramar after camping for about 3 hours for a sandstorm. The storm started around 2:58 server time, and i was going to wait it out to see how long the storm actually lasts, but it went on for over an hour and i finally gave up (I had other stuff to do).

First one i got was an uncommon quality. Then I went through about 10 more and finally got a rare. I realize that I could've used a battle stone, but i did witness that they DO in fact respawn after about a minute, so no worries...there were plenty to go around.

Commento di Znaleziatko

I checked the pet in here and was scared that I'm never gonna catch it. Then I went to The Noxious Lair and.. there was plenty, just hanging around. I fought seven hatchlings - three of which were rare quality. I just flew around and there's still at least ten of them there. And it doesn't look like a sandstorm to me (but I'm not sure what it's supposed to be like).
Sorry for those who spent hours hunting that one but maybe my luck will be helpful to someone.

Commento di m4zurka

they seem to keep spawning rapidly while there's a sandstorm going on. 9pm on a friday night i was flying around inside the caverns looking for an infinite whelpling and saw a sandstorm start (you can see sandstorms in the center of the caverns where zaladormu is). i flew straight to the gaping chasm and saw a hatchling right away. it was common but i captured it just in case. there were a few other people battling in the area too and it was a little cut-throat trying to be the first to enter the battles :) but there were plenty of hatchlings to go around. maybe entered about a dozen battles before getting a rare, and others were reporting in chat about finding their rares too.

happy hunting!

Commento di 536000

Sandstorm started today, and a friend whispered me as soon as it started happening. Immediately I logged over and began my search for a rare. To say they are "less elusive" is an understatement.

A friend and I began finding that they "re-spawn" about 90 seconds after we left the battle. This allowed for several people to search in the area with no shortage of them spawning.

BREEDING ISSUE
Without going into all the details, the basic idea is that all battle pets have two (2) of a possible stat, and are either male or female.

-- I use the "Battle Pet BreedID" addon--
B - Balanced
H - Health
P - Power
S - Speed

So each pet could be B/B which is double balanced, or P/S which is power and speed, etc.

After several attempts I noticed that NONE of the Silithid Hatchling have the "S" stat. We kept going after we got our rares (since the respawn was unbelievably fast) and after 120 plus battle between us we didn't see a single one with the "S" stat. NOT ONE.

We went between both spawn areas and battled for more than an hour. It could have just been luck, but it seems more like an Speed Silithid Hatchling is more rare, than a rare blue one. (we got 6 rares - H/H and H/P were the only ones we got).

So it seems like the Silithid Hatchling could very well be the "slowest" battle pet. (insert joke here).

If you do have a "S" pet - would love to know the stats and the other stat.

Commento di 694270

I would definitely recommend parking an alt in the area. I have had mine there and logged on her every time I would get on to play to check. In about 2 weeks I didn't see a single sandstorm, and most days I would check every few hours or so. This morning I logged on and there they were! I almost logged off because I didn't see them in my minimap immediately. Caught one, flew around looking for a rare since no one else were around. They respawned quickly. Only thing is I saw WAY too many poor quality. I guess it's to be expected but I've never engaged so many pets before seeing a single one of higher than poor quality. Once I noticed a few others doing the same I went ahead and left the area. I also recommend checking for the other weather dependent pets if you find these. I finally found a snowstorm with Arctic Fox Kits in The Storm Peaks. It may be totally unrelated but oh well.

Commento di Velanthia

Sandstorm started just before midnight server time for me. I was very happy since I'd just been sitting there waiting for several hours lol. Anyway, had to go through a LOT of commons and a poor or two before I finally found an uncommon... decided to keep trying for a rare and finally got one. I highly recommend that you keep trying for a rare as long as they're spawned. You don't want to have to come back later to replace your common with a rare lol.

EDIT: Forgot to mention I was in the "Noxious Lair" area, which is the NW patch of dots on the map here.

Happened to go through Tanaris and saw a sandstorm was happening, went to the Noxious Lair tons of these things were out. Not sure if this was serious rng love(or hate since I already have a rare) but I counted a total of 14 rare sea gulls come out as secondary.

Commento di sinestra139

Does anyone have any info on when and how often Sandstorms occur? Have been logging in regularly to Tanaris for weeks now but never see a sandstorm. Am i just being unlucky or are they quite rare?

Commento di LionsMike

A few WORDS of CAUTION

I have been watching for the sandstorms for some time and had never seen any until today when I was on my way from the caverns of time to Feralas and noticed the swirling sand (my graphics generaly take a few seconds of standing still to see weather) and I took a hard left and went to the Noxious Lair. As I approached I saw several pet battle icons on my minimap. I went down and clicked on the first one which turned out to be a poor quality but rather than cancel the battle , I captured it. When the battle ended, there were Icons all around me which disappeared within a second or two as the sand storm ended.

If you come into Tanaris while the sand is blowing go fast and grab the first hatchling you see. If I had canceled and went for a higher quality I would still need that one for the acheivement.

Commento di frakbt

sandstorm on mannoroth 10:25 AM PST Sunday,
not sure when started as I was flying through.
Was at south east spawn area, 2 were there that I saw.
First one I battled was a rare, got lucky.

Commento di Naggash

I logged in today on my alt (low pop realm) and there was a sandstorm. I logged in at about 1300 and its now 1440 and still storm happening. Respawn is instant, i did about 150 fights untill i finally found my H/H beast, rare one. There was about 20 b/b rares and few h/b rares. Good thing about sandstorm is if you in need of any other tanaris pet - you will find them as secondary. I got my sand kitty, stinkbug and gold beetle, all rares... Pretty happy :O

When thier is a sandstorm is it at both spots at the same time or are they seperate and at different times? i have been camping and waiting for the storm for about a week and haven't seen one.

Sandstorm hit here (NagrandEU) around midnight today, like other posts here have mentioned. Captured my lil' one :)

Commento di Nihilistzsche

The other day I had been hunting a Piccolo Silitide so I could complete my Tanaris collection, and around 2 pm I was feeling a bit hungry. My warlock was in Halfhill at the time, while my girlfriend, who was out at the time, had left her priest in Gadgetzan. I had walked back to check something when I noticed there was a sandstorm on her screen! Excited, I ran to my computer, hearthed to Two Moons, portaled to Dalaran, portaled to the Caverns of Time, and found an uncommon Piccolo Silitide. Before the battle had ended, the sandstorm itself had ended. It seems the sandstorm had only lasted around 5 minutes, and if I had noticed it 30 seconds later I would have missed my hatchling. They happen very quick and can happen at any time so just be prepared.

Commento di SFFCorgi

Finally caught a sandstorm in Tanaris, and promptly started going through Silithid Hatchlings. Here's what I thought particularly interesting -- this is the only time and place, after handfuls of battles, that I have even seen a Rare Desert Spider or Sand Kitten -- secondaries on two different battles. Nabbed them both, of course. This was over in the Noxious Lair.

Commento di 998432

If you're looking for a specific breed of rare like I was you're bound to be here a while.

I would simply start battles, sometimes forfeit, kill the undesirable ones and any rares of the wrong breed I'd leave alive and mark so I wouldn't come back to it. Doing this I apparently managed to help a couple people get a rare Silithid. And they had a good respawn time, so killing them wasn't a travesty.

Commento di tale

Note that not only does a sandstorm happen throughout the entire zone (rather than just in some subzone, like how the weather on Jaguero Isle is different from the rest of the Cape of Stranglethorn), it even happens all the way down in the bottom of the Caverns of Time. So if you're camping an alt down there to occasionally check on Draghetto dell'Infinito, you don't have to worry about possibly missing up a sandstorm up on the surface.

Commento di Centi

I played some Darude. Did not spawn him :(

Commento di Rj23

If you are pet collector you will appreciate this, but probably hate me for it. In my quest to capture rare pets a friend of mine began casing Jaguero Isle waiting for rain. We were in separate realms. She left a toon here and I left a toon here. Periodically we would check in and over the course of a couple of weeks she caught hers and I was offline :( We both kept a toon in hopes of rain. Finally the rain came! Not only did I catch my Baby Ape, but I caught a rare before the rain stopped.

Earlier she and I discussed some strategies for catching the Minifernal. I said, let me just go see if there is one there now. So I flew to Felwood. There were two in the area! I caught one that was uncommon. The other was poor, but it was still a Minifernal! So I cross realmed party with her and she caught it. To be clear there were none in her realm and she crossed to mine to catch it.

With this streak going I decided to look and see if there was a sand storm brewing in Tanaris. There wasn't in my realm, but in my friends realm there was. So we partied again and I crossed into her realm. I was able to catch a rare Silithid Hatchling. From beginning to end it took less than an hour. I am a very unlucky person, but i have to say this was some serious luck! I still cannot believe this happened!

If someone can teach me how to link in WoWhead I will go back and amend this story with links to each pet.

Just got mine on shattered halls @ 2:05 pm. Have been checking two different realms for the last two days. Now 2:25 and the storm's still going and they keep spawning. Engaged about five before getting a rare! Good luck everyone!

Commento di Jmech1986

A word of caution: the ambient sound of a sandstorm doesn't sound much different the normal sound you hear all over Tanaris. If you plan to camp this pet, it would be best that you not alt-tab for too long or do what you're doing in a overlapping window so you can still see wow. Minecraft is perfect for this btw...

Commento di 981407

Yo dawg! I heard you like RNG based events. So I put an RNG based pet in your RNG based event!

Commento di mewmewface

it has been sandstorming for about 1-2 hours or more, in tanaris, gaping chasm
Tichondrius US PVP 11:30pm to 1:12 am pacific time thursday

i cant stress more you need to park a toon there on that spot on different servers

Commento di lunamoonraker

I arrived in Tanaris to a Sandstorm and when I left 1 hour 45 minutes later it was still going. I assume the duration is random like other weather effects but just to give you an idea of how long it lasts.

As noted elsewhere the Piccolo Silitide now spawn in a lot of locations once a sandstorm appears and will respawn at a good rate.

Together this meant it was definitely less stressful looking for rare quality and breeds than the rain on Jaguero Isle for the apes.

Commento di katferr917

Last night 1/4/14 on a hunch landed in tanaris at 9:30 pm Bladefist server and a sandstorm was going on. At 10:20 got my rare after farming both areas. I left to see if it was snowing up at K3 but was not :P, went back at to tanaris about 11ish and the storm was over. Good luck and happy hunting.

Commento di tempovision

Best strategy for this pet is said many times now. Like all weather based pets, just put an alt on the spot, and check every time you log into wow or change to another char or log out. Just check your tanaris char regularly. I did this for two weeks before I got my hatchling. I was lucky on the other pets : the snow appeared the second day I checked and I had rain after five minutes the first time I was there.
I was in no rush at all, I still need the summer pet, so I had 4 months to see the sandstorm. And it only took me two weeks of regularly checking.

Commento di slimjimalex

Sandstorm currently going on at 5:55pm server time. U.S. Illidan

Commento di Rahaf

My Experience Today I just logged in at around 6:15 pm server time and found my self surrounded by the storm where I just left my character at The Gaping Chasm. There are lots of Hatchling I was able to battle 2 one common and a Rare. No one was around except me . This could be totally random. !

Good Luck !

Edit: Today 17/06/2014 I am in Tanaris .. I logged in at around 12:45pm Server time. with my Both Alliance Character and Horde at the same timing. It is Again Stormy. Moving between both factions the weather remained the same until 1:25pm so Being a Horde or Alliance is the same. You will get the Storm at the same time in the same server. Hope this piece of info is of a benefit.

I remember I got mine next to desolation hold. Before the cataclysm there were and still are small rocks and sometimes small silithids spawn. Even a rare called silithid harvester.

Commento di Allara

I camped for a sandstorm for 19 hours (13 consecutive hours on one day, 6 consecutive hours the second day). It took 19 hours for a sandstorm to spawn. So don't give up hope...it can take an awfully long amount of time.

When it finally did happen, the storm lasted long enough to find a rare, which took probably 20-25 tries. It's still going on as I type this.

Commento di WerewolfLink

Flew right in as a sandstorm was raging. Achievement finally obtained.

Commento di reyzobugs

IF, there is a sandstorm,will it then be in the whole Tanaris or only the places where the pet can spawn?

Commento di bladeson

FYI, if your own realm doesn't have a sandstorm going on, you can phase to a different realm and capture it there.

Commento di gagfinder

They come during sandstorm. Mostly.

Commento di Kaltac

I am convinced that the sandstorm doesn't exist. Been sitting out here for days waiting for it.

Commento di Scrapbookee

Spent a while today in Tanaris hopping to different servers. Hopped to 29 servers and no sandstorms :(

Took a break to go hunt Minfernals, came back, and continued to server hop. After 3 servers I found them. Just be patient, and abuse the Premade Group finder. YOU CAN DO IT!

Commento di Aylie

Realm hopping with group finder can help finding sandstorm and these pets. There are usually several auto invite groups up. Another thing worth mentioning: these pets spawn on the surface, no need to go underground.

Commento di MRTF

I played with lowest graphics as possible and the weather was clearly visible. Usually the area is very plain, calm and bright. Once a sandstorm hits it becomes dusty and a bit dark or blurry. Hope it helps.

Commento di Silvansaria

For weather dependent battle pets - it's best to either camp your guy (or girl) there and do something in the background or camp a character there and just log in periodically to see what's happening.

But for me - I like to do everything with my main so I just do something else while having the speakers all jacked up to hear when the storm hits.

Today was one such time.
I'm still looking for a rare (I got a green) and the storm is still raging. Seems to last a lot longer than the rain storm for the baby ape. Keep in mind there are also a few other battle pets that come with them as secondaries. I got a rare Sand Kitten during one of the fights and an uncommon Stink Bug (which I'll just stone later).

These also have a really fast respawn rate - so if looking for a rare - it's in your best interest to kill the ones you don't want while you do your circuit. For consideration of others you might not want to do that - but I don't consider others soooo... I'm HORDE - I take what I want and leave nothing for the rest...

That is all.

Commento di Odinbn

Found a Sandstorm in Tanaris today after going here a few times a day for the past 3 weeks. Made a group with the groupfinder to share it with as many as possible and around 30 people got their hatchlings in that group. A few hopeful people joined the group just as the sandstorm ended and I had to give them the sad news that they were to late. I disbanded the group and prepared to go back after having one last look over at the other area, this is when crazy happened. After having the first sandstorm around for what seemed to be around 50 minutes, it took a short 2 minute break before it started all over again on the same server.

Commento di Kavkim

I flew into Tanaris and everything was clear, took about 10 seconds for the sandstorm to register, it appears as dust clouds on the right and left coming toward you.

Commento di whistler2k4

I just played Darude - Sandstorm, but still, no sandstorm appeared. :(
This is a hard one indeed.

Commento di Cronien

I don't know if this has been said, but I couldn't find it in any of the top comments, so...

If your server doesn't have a sandstorm at the moment just use the custom group finder tool and jump to garrison or server hopping group. You'll find one soon enough. Took me 10 minutes to get one of these guys.

Commento di Garlin

I realy hate this one... I was waiting for 23 hours to storm show out...

Commento di mzBKworm

Realm hopped till I found a sandstorm. Didn't find a rare at the first location, but the two seem to have sandstorms at the same time so that helped. Found 4 uncommon, 1 rare and then 6 poor. Nope I didn't kill em for others who might be farming the same.

Commento di Olessya

Sandstorm right now in Sargeras.

Commento di Mera

I finally got mine! I've been waiting for a sandstorm hours at a time since November 2016 when I started collecting battle pets (because one girl was bragging that she had more than I did, in 2 days that was fixed). Last night I spent maybe 7 hours afking in Tanaris and no sandstorm. Went to sleep, woke up, went to the store, came home, logged in in Tanaris and oh my GAWD a sandstorm! I battled the first silithid hatchling that I saw, it was just common but I don't care, I'll just use a stone to make it rare if I ever want to use it. When the battle was over the sandstorm ended. I can't believe my luck right now.

Commento di rinbow

New to this game and noticed the pet is only available when there's a sandstorm. Is there any way to check the weather? I have looked around but found nothing yet and walking around but no sandstorm and no pet yet....

Commento di Pixiwix

I had been checking in a few times a week over the last year hoping to catch a sandstorm (and this pet). Finally decided to level up an alt and a sandstorm kicked up while I was questing. Almost didn't realize what it was until I saw the green battle pet icon because I didn't think I'd ever actually catch one!

So my tip: if you've been wanting to level up an alt AND you need this or other low-level quests/achieves/mounts/items, might as well kill two birds...

Commento di sluggy108

I got tired of logging into alts so I decided to put my foot down and wait until it would show up. Very luckily, a sandstorm appeared after only 2 hours of waiting. The sandstorm darkens the sky and it produces a lot of grey puffs of wind. I parked my character in the pit and opened a custom group to let anyone in who wanted to catch this pet. It turns out, the sandstorm lasted very long, which were 2.5 to 3 hours. I didn't stick around to see how long the pets would remain after it ended, but judging from my guildies report they weren't found beyond 15 minutes. Thus, I recommend to check every 2 hours or less if you want this pet. I just set my hearthstone there because there was an amazingly convenient innkeeper right next to the flight master near The Gaping Chasm (bottom right spawn area).

I'm trying to catch this elusive pet for more than 2 weeks now, I check at least once daily, but I found not a single sandstorm (equal problem with Arctic Fox Kit, no snow at all). I'm so frustrated by now, those two are the last missing species from the two achievements for me. Can maybe anyone confirm they are still spawning in BfA?

Edit: They are still spawning! The best advise I found here was to place alts in the two locations and just log in randomly, instead of traveling there with my mage. Thx

Commento di projecteulogy

Been camping Tanaris since WOD for this pet. Its the only one i'm missing. I know because My mage is stuck at level 100 because she's my camper toon. Every day, 10-15 times a day i'll switch and see if there's a sandstorm. Nope. Cross realming doesn't help. My friend made Trial alts on multiple different servers not in our main's cluster. Nothing. Not even a trickle of a sandstorm. What gives? Is this bugged?

Commento di Aevintiri

A Sandstorm started around 11:20 PM EST after camping for almost 12 hours and ended at 11:50 PM EST. I want to confirm that the ENTIRE zone of Tanaris does turn into a sandstorm and not just the two areas where Piccolo Silitide spawns. There were tons of Piccolo Silitide spawns at both The Gaping Chasm and The Noxious Lair areas. After around 8 battles, I got 1 Rare, 3 Uncommon, and 4 Common. There are only three different breeds for Piccolo Silitide and they are B/B, H/P, H/H and I managed to grab one of each. A Micio delle Sabbie (S/S) also spawned as a secondary.

Commento di Neon351

Caught it today at 21:00 pm got the achievement and then went to eastern kingdoms to try my luck and boom, baby ape was up also!
So I suggest to check for the other "hard to find" pets whenever one of them spawns, you might get lucky. Good luck!

Commento di Xaciia

Today, in less than 2 minutes, I was finally able to attain my Zookeeper title with the long-awaited capture of this elusive pet. I have been camping for about 4 days, from ~4pm to midnight, realm time, while semi-afk studying. I gained my Pandaria Safari 2/13/16 and this has been the LAST PET for both my Kalimdor Safari and my World Safari achieves. I have checked the craters THOUSANDS of times over the years and never saw the pet, or the sandstorm (including today).

Today, I logged in (~4:30 pm) at the south rim of the Gaping Chasm with the intent of "just standing there" like I have for hours over the last few days...but for some reason decided to take a flight around, just in case. As soon as I hit the air over the crater, the first green paw appeared. There were two within a few yards of each other. I didn't bother to look for more, tbh, because I was just so excited my wait was finally over. He's only common quality, HH, but I'm just going to stone him to rare and go on with my life!

Commento di mermel

Been checking in throughout the day for weeks and nothing but clear skies. How can I get a sandstorm to happen?

Commento di Chrysippus

Just got mine on 11/13/2021 and it took about ten minutes.
*NOTE: Sandstorms are zone-wide*
(Battle Pet Breed ID addon is highly recommended if you care about pet stats, PetTracker and ReMatch are also extremely helpful)

Simple method to avoid hours of waiting for a sandstorm:

Make a class trial (druid is recommended) on a realm in a different server group than your own (if you are in a normal realm, try an RP, new player, low pop, etc.)
Login to class trial, disable non-pet battle addons and reload UI
Open your bag and use the hearthstone (this should take you to your capital city)
Open your spellbook and put druid flight form (or flying mount) on your bar
Turn WM on
Take the portal to Caverns of Time
Fly a little into Tanaris from Caverns of Time (make sure you go over the little mountain, your minimap in the top right should say Tanaris, NOT Caverns of Time)

If you see a black sky and gritty particle effects in the air, then congratulations! You have found a sandstorm in Tanaris and Silithid Hatchlings should be spawning at the two hives.
If the zone is bright with clear skies, then proceed to next step

Fly back to Caverns of Time
Take the portal back to your capital city
Step in the city just enough to see NPCs / players phase in or out when you turn off warmode (This is important to be sure you actually switched shards)
Turn off warmode,

If you see NPCs / players phase out, then phase back in, you have successfully switched shards
If you don't see NPCs / players phase out and back in, then toggle warmode again, make sure warmode is turned off and you have phased into a different shard

-

Go back through the Caverns of Time portal, then repeat earlier steps and fly into Tanaris

If you see black skies / gritty particle effects, then congratulations on finding a sandstorm!
If clear skies, then repeat this process, i.e. make another class trial on a different server group

-

Admittedly, I got very lucky and found a sandstorm on my second class trial with WM still on. This method should, in most cases, still be significantly faster than waiting in Tanaris for a sandstorm to hit on your shard. This method is repeatable and you can just delete class trials when you are done or if you run out of class trial slots.

Good luck on your Silithid Hatchling hunt!

Commento di stevemacky

Don't know if this will help anyone, but Tanaris just had a sand storm at 7:30pm PST Nov 13, 2021 on Malfurion US. Collected my pet. Thank goodness that's done.

Commento di wohin

Some observations:

1. I camped this zone on two servers for 8+ hours before a storm spawned. If you periodically check for storms on a single toon you're kind of throwing a dart blind and hoping to hit the bulls eye.
2. They do last longer than the other weather conditions (snow and the rain) for the other pets. My storm is still going after an hour.
3. The storm is zone wide apart from the approach to the Caverns of Time, including some distance out front. You can't farm Infinite Whelplings while you wait, as even if there is a storm happening, it can't be seen from that part of the zone. You could fish off the coast or hang out in Gadgetzan though, if that's your thing, or farm some silk / mageweave / greens from the Ogres.
4. You can't have sound in the background for this one, as the ambience of the storm is no different (or barely different) to the usual ambience. I did a side by side comparison and couldn't tell.

My recommendation? Do an admin / study / whatever blitz and ALT-TAB througout the day.

Commento di Highstakes

A sandstorm happened today on Sunday 31st of July @10:25GMT. I'd been camping this Pet for a week maybe 10 days, solidly, and was starting to question if it was a phasing issue, game bug, and all the rest.

Logged into my collector alt who was parked at The Gaping Chasm. and the Sky just didn't look like anything I'd seen before in that zone, it was incredibly cloudy with no visibility of the sun. After about 30 minutes the sky went even darker, the Field of view was reduced and there were large gusts all over the place - very distinct you'd know if it happened.

Just got to get lucky. Stay strong my fellow collectors!

Commento di Laderoth

Sandstorm was up today when I logged in on US Dalaran at 12:20pm. I had only been checking for a sandstorm for 4 days so I guess I am very lucky. I also found the Baby Ape and Arctic Fox Kit, all within 4 days of parking toons there to check, so maybe the odds of these weather effects occurring has increased!

Commento di xLunacyx

I came across a sandstorm in Tanaris a bit before 1pm(server) on June 29, in case there are any patterns for the next one.
The backgrounds became darker, it was very foggy and misty, with faint tufts of sand blowing around.

Commento di Wildcupcake

Sandstorm up today on Draenor EU.

Commento di KazzakMonk

As it was suggested in this page - parked alts among 6 different realms on the spawn spot. After two days of switching in between realms every few hours - I actually caught the pet.
Tip: 1) Do not check the sky to see a huge sandstorm. It was barely any storm (if any storm) at the spawn point. I checked the minimap - noticed the green paw (pet) icon and voila - it was all around the place. As somebody else mentioned - the storm does not (always) cover the whole zone it seems.

I also run a Starter Account while playing on my main account on the same server and check it every 30 minutes or so. It does indeed seem to be very rare and random. Based on past comments it seems checking at least every 2 hours is ideal if possible as some reported sandstorms running for about 2 hours. If I find one I'll try and confirm the length and get a screenshot since some people seem to have questions about how they look on different graphic settings.
