So an egg spawns in intermission and you have to catch it quickly.

If you run into the bottom platform or cast any ability, it despawns. Standing in swirlies or standing on the incubators does nothing. Standing on the puddle that the adds from phase 1 leave does nothing.

Popping a puddle in an incubator doesn't seem to do anything and we tried a few times to get knocked into a jellyfish with no luck.

Edit: If you save grip you can grip the egg person out of aqualance from myrmidon, everything else is easily dodged

For this achievement you will have to assign a person to to catch the baby Zoatroid during the intermission by standing on the edge of the platform outside of the boss room.

The person who catches the egg will then have to get it down to the boss area while avoiding Hatchery Moulting and Eggsplosion along the way during the intermission. The person carrying the egg must not use any abilities or else they will drop the egg.

Make sure NOT to interrupt Massive Incubator early as the person carrying the egg will be late since they will be slowed by 30% (Incubating Zoatroid). If you can have a priest in the group then you can assign that player to help out with Angelic Feather and Leap of Faith.

A better picture where the egg falls from the ceiling: https://imgur.com/a/W4RitDG (red mark). The catcher must be quick to get there!

Could be catched by more than one person!

For anyone coming here to double-check if you're able to carry it in cat form as a druid, I'm here to say YES, you can!

This is a timing achievement...when boss gets 40% it starts intermission; so stay close to the door and use speed potion or speed spell to catch the egg and you will grab the egg and manage to do the achievement...just be carefull not to be hit by nothing when going down and be sure that the boss is not interrupted before you arrive the lower level.

Ghost Wolf works to negate the move speed debuff. Smooth sailing all the way down. Just dont Spirit Walk

Was doing this achy with community again tonight (did it once before back in BFA).

Something of note, that couldn't remember from back then and isn't mentioned here at all by anyone - the actual catching itself!

To begin with, I was about 95% certain that you HAD to have either a DH leap off +glide to catch it, or have a priest grip them back on...
but ... NOPE. No leaping off required.

Next... clicking or moving through it? Nope...

We had several pulls/wipes on this, trying to work it all out.
In the end... I just stood by the door, then ran straight to the spawn position on the edge of the ledge as soon as door opened.
So long as you're in that area, the egg just, is caught? No clicking, no leaping off... just, being on the edge of that ledge in the right place at the right time.

Then it's just a case of getting to the bottom platform in time. We had several druids follow me (I was on my hunter for the record), and using their stampeding roar speed buff (buffs everyone's speed, doesn't break the egg) to get me down there faster. I made it down there with ~3sec left to go... I could've made it faster had I specced into Trailblazer too probably.

After that, I just stood in the back, while everyone else nuked the boss (which was very fast, given a bunch of overgeared 60's :P )

Is probably a reference to Samus Aran saving the Baby Metroid and it helping her against Mother Brain in Super Metroid.

Not really soloable. If you don't interrupt the cast you get oneshot, if you do interrupt you lose the egg.

Although there is one theoretical way to do it for a class with pets: if you pop all cooldowns and manage to burn the boss down (without killing it) to a very very low HP, you might be able to catch the egg, run down and have your pet's auto attack finish the boss off before the cast goes off. This would be very hard to do though as you'd only have seconds to kill it before the cast finishes, but theoretically not impossible.

The easiest is to just bring a second player (or a second account) who does the interrupting.

Now you can simply nuke the boss after grabbing the egg and the achievement will pop. Managed to do it applying DoTs before it runs through the corridor, and then it died while still going through it. Arcane Mage's Touch of Magi is great for that purpose. The egg carrier just grabbed the egg and waited, no need to do the actual challenge anymore.
