It looks like you'll need Kyrian Assaults active for 3x times to finish this achievement and get Sly. With the 3.5 day rotation of 4 covenants' assaults, this will take at least 28 days to complete and (based on the first Kyrian Assault post-release) up to 6 weeks into Chains of Domination if you don't miss a single opportunity to find Sly.

TomTom:
/way #1543 42.13 44.48 Orator Kloe
/way #1543 40.71 51.58 Sly#1
/way #1543 38.03 39.73 Sly#2
/way #1543 32.89 44.19 Sly#3

When you achieve A Sly Fox with the third successful rescue, Sly will be delivered to your mailbox.
The hidden quests that mark the completion of one rescue of Sly don't reset. (, , )
Another hidden quest is obviously there to make sure that players can't speed up the process because it's flagged completed for the span of a whole Kyrian Assault if you were interacting with Sly. ()

/run for k,v in pairs({SlyHuntActualAssault=64019,Sly1=64024,Sly2=64022,Sly3=64023}) do print(format("%s: %s", k, C_QuestLog.IsQuestFlaggedCompleted(v) and "\124cFFFF0000Completed\124r" or "\124cFF00FF00Not completed yet\124r")) end

Tracking down Sly is character-specific, other characters can't circumvent the one rescue per assault limitation. (not sure if doing it multiple times makes any sense, usually achievement pets are limited to 1 per account)

I think it's noteworthy to mention that you need to follow the footsteps to the mentioned locations rather than going to the coordinates in a random path, as you most likely won't be able to see Sly.

When you are going to a fox location, make sure u are following tiny blue paw traces on the ground or u wont find the fox.

Comment by Huddie

3rd kyrian assault up for NA today so Sly should be available but surprise surprise there's a bug and his footprints stop at 39, 45.15 and you are unable to complete the achievement

Comment by Dianora

The seeker Frolic will not stealth if you're on a stealth class, and will get attack by mobs on its way to Sly.

Hi all

I present You small Guide how to do A Sly Fox Criteria of On the Offensive.

See My Video if need it - https://youtu.be/XO0VohT3_wc

You can do This achievement only when Kyrian Assault is up.

I done it in 3 Assaults. In all of them You need at first speak with Orator Kloe 42 44 go get buff Sharp Eyed.

1 Assault:

Speak with Orator Kloe and follow foot prints to 40 51. It does not show immediately waith few sec.

2 Assault:

Speak with Orator Kloe and follow foot prints to 38 39

3 Assault:

Speak with Orator Kloe and follow foot prints to 32 44. If foot print will stop showing up in middle of way just go to 32 44 Sly will be there.

After You will find him 3rd time You will reache A Sly Fox and You will get massage with Sly check Your Mailbox.

Hope That Help You :)

This is the 4th Kyrian Assault, and if you've already have the achievement on a character, you will not be able to go look for it again on that character. So this is another one pet per character deal.

Comment by DebL

If the 3rd Sly isn't showing up at /way 32.89 44.19
Try logging out and back in.
Go back and speak with Orator Kloe to get the buff Sharp Eyed again.
Sly was there for me this time,

I ran into the issue with the footprints stopping partway on the 3rd quest. I couldn't find Sly at his location despite logging out, restarting, etc. Found a support KB that mentioned phasing issues with the Kyrian assault - they said specifically the Encouraging Words quests but I did all of them to be sure. After that I got Frolic and the footprint trail worked to find Sly.

Comment by Teekkee

I've had an unusual problem with this quest. For some reason when I am on an Alliance character following Frolic, a Horde character has come over and killed Frolic on me. At first I thought it was just a very rude character, but now this has happened multiple times, on multiple days, by multiple characters. What's the point of this? I had to go back and get Frolic again, which isn't hard, but annoying. Some people really need to check their empathy supply.

Comment by Redsword

This seems to be a reference to Sly Cooper - a Playstation game where you play as a racoon thief!

Several things. I got the achievement for A Sly Fox, but didn't get the pet. I had found Sly twice in Bastion and once in the Maw. Apparently it's good for the achievement, but not the reward. I won't report this as a bug or make a ticket because lately (Microsoft help style) Blizz won't do anything other than send you a 'form letter' suggesting that you check wowhead, etc.
The footprints are small and blue and don't appear all at once so you'll go forward, stop, forward, stop.
The footprints go both ways, so you may find yourself back with Chloe. For Sly 1, follow the footprints SW to find it.
The footprints don't disappear once you find Sly and neither does Frolic. Frolic finally disappeared when I used the Cypher to return to Ve'nari.

Good news - EDITED: I logged out for a few hours and when I got back and checked my mail, there was Sly. So apparently the previous sightings DO count and I didn't have to spend weeks returning to the Maw during the Kyrian Assault.
