Is there a way for a Horde hunter to get this pet?

Commento di 26944

He is tame-able by Horde.

Simply remove anything with durability and corpse run onto the boat to Azuremyst at Auberdine. (Middle of the Docks)

Head to the location on the map shown, and congrats on your new pet.

Also when he tames, he appears VERY small. It's unique though.
Almost as small as a non-combat pet.

Commento di 34569

These types of spiders also make very loud sounds while attacking and being attacked. It seems the sound is always played at the character instead of at the spider itself.

Commento di 32877

He's way in the back up a hill at approx 18, 35

It's worth pointing out that this spider has a completely unique skin - no other spider in the game is -exactly- the same, though a few are close. If you're a hunter wanting a pet that not many people have (If I see one more night elf hunter with one of the Teldrassil/Darkshore cats, I will scream. Mine has Echeyakee), this is well worth the trip to Bloodmyst.

Spiders have +7% DPS over standard pet damage, just the Bite skill, and eat only meat, making them not the most desirable pet, but it makes cool/creepy noises that can have a kind of psychological effect in PvP, especially if your enemy happens to be arachnophobic. I still like spiders (especially this one), but I like unconventional pets anyway.

It's a pipe dream, but I think it'd be really cool if spiders got a Web skill soon, perhaps in Wrath, that acts as a short (let's say 2-4 seconds depending on rank) CC to keep a mob or enemy in place so they can't run. They'd still be fully able to fight back or what have you, and put it on a 45sec cooldown to balance it. Sound fair? I'd love that. It'd be great for solo play to stop mobs that run at X% health and would be cool for PvP to temporarily slow down flag runners and such. I'd really love to see something besides Scorpids with solid PvP utility.

i was very exited to get this pet, but now that i tamed it...

its freaking small and my god! too lousy! i dont like it at all, ill submit a screen so u guys can see its size

Commento di wowaddict777

Actually, I'm thinking a smal pet might not be bad. My first character was a Warlock, and I absolutely HATED that big @#$@ Voidwalker. It was always blocking my camera view, or the item I wanted to click on, etc. I hate to think what a pain a larger spider might be...?

Commento di 203766

If you play the expansion of WC3 you'll see the Nerubians; actually, they look more like silithids than spiders (in wc3 at least).

And a spider snare would indeed be awesome IMO, cuz thats the only reason I personnaly dont have a spider on my hunter: the lack of skills... lots of the mobs spiders have one, but once you tame them, they magically unlearn it ... whats up with that ?

Kudos to Blizz for fixing that problem in the xpak, with the new training pet trees, at least all pets get some kind of skills, rather than just a select few... but still no snares for spiders =(...

Ima kinda miss the whole hunting for skills tho, cuz thats one of the things that appealed to me as a hunter: was the fact that you had to actually live up to the name hunter in order for your pet to be of any use. On the up side tho, since now not all pets of the same family will be exactly the same, with all the different options in the pet trees, it will put back the notion of uniqueness to your pets.

Hunter debates notwithstanding...
Zarakh is huge, and scared the living bajeezus out of me. Watch out.

Commento di 68513

I tamed Zarakh at lvl 20. He is still a lvl behind me (22/21) and I've noticed that he doesn't keep up when I run. Anyone else having this issue? He falls behind about as fast whether I'm in cheetah or not - it seems to be a % run speed thing.

Commento di Elodarian

Has any one tamed him yet on 3.0.2?

Is he still tiny?

Commento di 283556

I tamed it when i was like level 30 and he looked cool.I should tell you when he is tamed he shrinks.I mean not like a normal pet but this one was tiny!

Commento di dclpt

It might be worth noting for those of you who care, This guy has no swimming animation.

My previous spider was the black widow lookin bastards in the eastern part of Tiristfal Glades, and I always found his swimming animation rather humorous. (He looked all soaked and #$%^ed and just kinda floated with his legs dangling mindlessly. Gave swimming around at a slow pace something at least semi-entertaining.) This guy just kinda stands there in the water, like hes on land or something.

He also does indeed has a nasty loud cry when you send him to attack. I can't decide if I like it better than the old spiders hiss.

Well either way, just thought I would let you guys know that random tidbit of info.

Just tamed at 19 for my twink. Great skin, kind of small, but o well. It's like gnomes, hard to click on :P

Commento di 103530

When I tamed him (at level 19) he was tiny, as reported here. And I liked the idea of a tiny spider pet! ;p

Unfortunately I just took him out of the stables again (I'm now level 22), and he is much bigger, the size of a regular spider pet.

Has this happened to anyone else? Did Bliz change/fix his size?

How disappointing to those of us who liked him small...

Commento di 389201

An excellent twink pet choice, if only to annoy the hell out of your opponents with the noise.

Commento di 211544

Would you like to know why they made it's size so small when they tame it?

Because they know the half of the WoW Populace has arachnophobia! Especially when it's (big?),red,angry and charging towards you (The beast within).

Commento di 74227

It's been reported that Zarakh has some difficulties with moving up stairs and through doors. This can make it difficult to use this pet to pull.

Quote from Petopia - any truth to that?

Commento di 576501

how do i get there, im a horde in darkshore, do i just go in front of the boat or what? pls respond

Commento di Willerka

Why drown under the boat when u can stand on it? no guards attack u on it so long u stands in the middle of the boat and its only like players under lvl 20 thats using the boat? lols

Commento di shika

Still really small at my patch.

Commento di 453636

The real question is how a 19 huntard twink (of Horde side, that is) will manage to reach Bloodmyst with Auberdine's boats out of commission.

Commento di tnhalbertsma

Actually spent years getting to Rut'theran. Finally whn I got on the boat I found out I needed TBC to get there. I was already planning to get it, and TBC is super cheap so I went ahead and bought it. On Azure/Bloodmyst it was pretty painful too, a lot of aggro monsters, specially on Bloodmyst. Probably spent 5 hours (and 7 euros, lol) just getting to Zarakh. Kinda doubted if it was worth it at first, but it's awesome now! In pvp the web allows you to get off a free Aimed Shot, and in pve it's just another monster you won't get damaged by. She deals pretty sweet DPS too, more than enough imo. But she really does shine in pvp, web that flag carrier, 4 seconds is a LOT in situations like that.

All in all, get Zarakh. It's worth it (: haven't touched my Monkey, Moth, Raptor and Wolf since. And to speed up the dying under the boat thing, just command your pet to attack the NE guards. After having owned your pet they'll come after you and one shot you with ease. Think that's faster than drowning :)

Also... Don't give up, it was super painful, I know, but in the end it's worth it :D

Commento di 838475

guys you know any place near Orgrimmar or somewhere close to ? plz reply me of pm me/add me in game (i have that name)

just got it for pvp, love how small it gets! haha, and it looks amazing ^^

Commento di 977993

For Horde hunters hoping to avoid the long and annoying trip to Bloodmyst Isle to tame this beautiful spider, there is another spider with the same skin that is available as part of . has the same look and is spawned as part of that quest. http://www.wow-petopia.com/look/giantspiderblack.html

Commento di 1023379

OK, call me a sissy or what have ya, but this quest is going to have me in nightmares. I am deathly afraid of spiders, and made it through and killed everything but momma! Anybody have a way I can get in and out of there quickly, I can't have nightmares two nights in a row.

Anybody?

Commento di Thottbot

zarakh can be found at 18,35 bloodmyst island. In the Amberweb Pass

Commento di Thottbot

I was a lvl 20 Blood elf hunter when i got him, and I had to die several times to get him but compared to echeyakee, at lvl 31 zarakh has more health and strength but a few less armor points,
and looks cooler because hes all black except the red on hes back.

Horde can get it by going to Auberdine in Darkshore swim under the dock till u see a rock right next to the dock. You well aggro one of the guards. Just stand there till he warps yes he warps! to u then he well kill u then release but dont rez stay died run to the end of the dock and till u see the middle boat arive thats the boat to azuremyst isle rez then run on to the boat jump off before u get there, there r more guards. Stay on the coast fellow it around to bloodmyst isle look up the allies quest location for him up some path the leads to the mountains there he be with some other spiders after u clear the area hes easy to get. But no special abilitys VERY cool looking though. Might be hard on a PVP server. Njror Blood Elf Hunter Staghelm Server.

Commento di Thottbot

I tamed him when I was lvl 39 and he's lvl 42 now. Compared to my cat he doesn't hit quite as hard, but he has more health and holds agro better. He makes a good tank when I'm grinding and given the high amount of acrophobia on my server, he's my favorite PVP pet.

Commento di Thottbot

Tamed him tonight at level 19, had a few high level friends guard me while I did it. I was surprised to find that Zarakh's armor is some what high for it's level. Does a decent amount of damage and seems to hold aggro very well. I think the coolest thing about it is how it looks, however, it was very tiny after I tamed it which made me QQ a little until I thought of how evil it will look at 70.

Commento di Thottbot

I must say I was not sure what kind of a pet he would turn out to be...he doesn't have any extra skills...check him out..

http://petopia.brashendeavors.net/html/mobs/mob_zarakh.shtml

but ...
If any warlocks are out there he is very similar to the VW he tanks and does it well....
Armor at lvl 23 is like 2000
Resistance 30 in arcane, fire, nature, frost, and shadow is in the 40s
an unbelievable pet
I can take on a warlock with a VW no problem.
the only thing that hinders this pet is if he falls asleep..... HE EATS ALOT! Make sure he is well fed lots of meat he will eat certain types of raw meats, but can and will eat any type of meat we eat.

Commento di Thottbot

I've taken him into Warsong alot and he's really good. I'd highly recommend anyone wanting a Spider to get this one. Not only is he a a great pet as far as DPS goes, he is also the only unique looking spider in the game.

Just clear out all of the other spiders around Zarakh before you tame him and you should be fine.

Commento di Thottbot

Umm all pets have the same attack speed unless you got cobra reflexes+serpents speed and frenzy then its 0.99 i believe.Anyway Zarakh looks pretty cool and is the only model like that.Your better off getting a ravager or cat for DPS or for a twink.It was pretty hard to get him for horde on a pvp server but on pve you should have no problem at level 19.

Commento di Thottbot

Side note here....this pet, loses much of it's coolness once you tame it. I have always known that the pets shrink, but after taming...I was amazed. This pet shrinks to about the size of a vanity pet, I mean it is THAT small. I know they grow, but it's not going to grow that much. I was hoping for somehing a BIT bigger.

But on the plus side, it's a nice dps pet and will be good for PvP since it's smaller size will make it harder to target.

I'm still shocked at how small it is.

P.S. - Set aside about an hour of your time for this, possibly more. It took me about an hour and a half due to getting ganked. My suggestion would be to do this run naked and save some repair Bills.

If you are horde the way to do this:

First, if you haven't got the quest to run to Zoram'gar to deliver the papers, do it. Also, don't forget to get the flight path at Zoram'gar as well. May as well do this since you are headed this way anyway.

Once done with your business in Zoram'gar, hop back on the road and run into Darkshore. If you are pvp, then you are ok all the way to Auberdine. If you are PvP (like me) I HIGHLY suggest, running to the coastline and moving north from there. Don't worry about track beasts, just keep track humanoids up so you can keep an eye out for others. Once you get close to Auberdine, hop in the water. Don't worry about the threshers, they are easily avoided. Swim to the middle dock. No guards are going to port to you. Once at the middle dock go right below the surface and drown yourself. Once dead, that will put you right outside Auberdine, run to the end of the dock and wait for the boat. Once the boat gets there hop on, but don't rez quite yet. Wait for the boat to get there, then, as the boat is taking off, rez. That way if others are around, they don't know until it's too late that you are there.

Once on the boat you are home free. The boat drops you off in Azuremyst, just run through to bloodmyst, and then make your way to Amberweb pass. Be prepared for a nice little fight up the hill, as it's infested with Spiders. Zarakh is at the top. Pull the two spiders that surround him, once that's done he is easily tamed. One note, pre-tame he hits FAST, not so hard, but wicked fast. If you are 19 and dont' have freeze trap yet, I would STRONGLY suggest using the super sticky glue that you got as a quest reward (assuming you did the quest). It lasts for a decent amount of time and by the time it breaks you should be well over half way done training.

Good luck and be prepared for a small, creepy looking spider.

Commento di Thottbot

Just tamed him on Kael'thas was easy he only hits for 12-15 each hit I was at around 150/497 when it finished taming him.

Commento di Thottbot

If you are high lvl player (70) and need to lvl this cool lil spider up. I have found that in Hells Peninsula where the road leads down to the Citadel is a nice spot to level this pet (or any other lower lvl pet). The mobs are only lvl 62-63, the minimum needed to gain experiance and are easily killed. Many are either laying down or sitting and you can get off a crit shot ftw.

Commento di Thottbot

I lost 150 HP during the taming! It's rather easy with: - Gift of the naru and - Rough stone statue (Jewelcrafter stone giant that heals you for x seconds). :)
Had 365/516 HP after the taming.

Another good tactic is to fully clear the mountain of all spiders, and then fear him with 'Scare Beast' and then tame him while he's feared. Sometimes he'll run out of range which is annoying, therefor it's best to first wing clip him and then scare beast ---> Tame. He won't run arround so fast then! Make sure there's no spiders left.

He doesn't really have any abilities, and he becomes REALLY, REALLY small! However, it does scream your head of when it attacks, which is really cool for such a small tiny spider :)

He's worth taming, in my opinion.

Tip: When you've tamed him, feed him with the Crunchy Spider Legs you just found when killing the other spiders. It makes him happy pretty fast!

Commento di Thottbot

Does anyone have a screenshot of him as lvl 70? Would like to see how much it grows.

Commento di Thottbot

OMG.. in pvp w/ this pet u hide him behind the wall right next to the flag and aggressive...watch as the person taking the flag @#$%s their pants. Lol >:) really fun pet and in shaded area's it's very hard to see..ill put a pic up of him in a week or so

Edit: (pics taken at lvl 19)

From reading some of the posts here, I expected a somewhat smaller spider.
I just tamed her, and she shrunk to the same size as the Myst Leecher I tamed to help me fight my way to her.

When I set her on a mob, and she gets some distance on me, she does seem very small. But standing next to me she seems more like a 'normal' size pet. Perhaps her 'skinny' legs make her appear smaller or something.

http://pyed.eu/zarakh/zarakh_35.JPG

She also makes the same combat noises as the Myst Leecher, so if that doesn't appeal to you, be warned.

(Sorry for being a stickler, but she is female btw. Quest log refers to her as "matriarch" :)

Very cool pet IMO, though I don't know how her stats compare to others :)

Commento di Thottbot

Mine is up to 47 at the moment, tames him when i was about 35. I'm 48 and he still hasnt caught up to my level yet, so tame him early if you can. Ill add a picture when i get a chance of his current size, im happy with how big he is getting :D

I don't know about other spiders, but this beast is just plain FRIGHTENING.

It looks very scary because of the needle-like legs, but the worst thing is that it emits a horrible SCREAM whenever it Growls or gets hit. I got completely freaked out when our Night Elf hunter brought it as a tank for the Deadmines.

The ultimate arachnophobia pet.

Commento di Thottbot

Someone far up said acrophobia lol.. "OH NOES AN ACROBAT!"

Commento di Thottbot

This is a sweet pet. Kinda small, but when it attacks somethign it goes..

'Aikaaaaia!'

That's pretty cool if you ask me. I was lv. 18 when I went to tame it, and I trained a bit on Zarakh's platform. A Draenei warrior came and killed it, and later on, it respawned on the spot I was standing on. I jumped out of my skin, and then it attacked me and went..

'Aikaaaaia!'

Then I died, and came back, dinged and tamed.

Commento di Thottbot

I tamed Zarakh a few months ago when I was around level 21 - 23ish. I don't remember that very well. XD
But I read through here first before I got up there and I did as someone else did, tamed one of the other spiders, used that one to get me up there, killed a few of the other spiders surrounding Zarakh so there wasn't a chance of me dying while trying to tame her, and then, WALAH! she was all mine. :]
And agreeing to what someone previously said, she is a fast hitter so watch out.
I, being a Draenei, used Gift of the Naaru on myself right before I started taming that way I basically ended up with almost no damage to worry about because by the time I had her tamed, the other spiders had started to respawn. Keep in mind, Zarakh hits very fast, the hits keep coming so either being very well protected or having some sort of healing on right before you tame her like I did is probably a good idea if you're around her level.
I am VERY satisfied with Zarakh, she's an amazing pet. Awesome in the BG's. Her scream is awesome, it scares the horde at the battleground so it's almost as good as a 2 or 3 second stun in most cases. XD
But this spider is a very good pet and I would reccommend it for anyone.

Commento di Thottbot

I wanna get Zarakh on my lvl 25 Hunter. Can anyone please post a pic of her while in Bestial Wrath? It would be awesome to see her get huge. Doomsniffer-Windrunner Horde side

Commento di Thottbot

okguys a hunters pet doesn't HAVE to look kool so a spider might be uglier than a lion, but they still are the same when you fight except for the abilities.

Commento di Thottbot

The easiest way I've found to tame the hard to tame pets is to do a simple quest, if you're horde, for some slumber sand. Or go to westfall if your alliance and farm a few magic dusts. Either of them put the target to sleep for 20s(slumber sand) or 30s(magic dust). Voila, no more trying over and over again. Just make a simple macro to use the dust and start taming.

Enjoy!

Decided that my blood elf hunter needed this pet too, so I went to get her. The only problem I had where the guards at Auberdine, died 3 times while getting to the boat. I am not lvl 30 yet, so no FD.

Had a bit of a laugh when I got of the boat, all those dreanie starters looked a bit surprised to see a belf. But it went ok, and in the end, I got her.

HS'ed back to Oggrimar and just stood there being proud. Got a lot of whispers where I got her.

Commento di Allakhazam

This spider has to be one of the coolest unique pet models in the game. It's scary-sounding, too. I wanted one for level 70 PvP, just to freak people out, but was level 60 before BC came out (and when this spider became available).

After reaching level 70 and wanting this pet, I decided to try it. I tamed it at 70 while it was just level 19 and am working on leveling it up to 70. So far I'm to level 51. It's slow, but faster than you might think. At 70, you have to kill mobs at least 62, and your pet doesn't help much being that low. Changes your mode of play, for sure, and burns up lots of mana, but it works.

Right now I'm grinding Consortium rep on 67-68 mobs, and even up to 71 (ethereal prisons), in Netherstorm, while leveling up this spider. Kinda fun. It takes time, but it's doable.

Commento di Allakhazam

just tamed this huuuuuge spider while trying to find a cool pet :P it looked so cool with all those spiky legs and because it was so big, after taming it it shrinked to the size of a gnome -.-' well done blizzard, you just ruined my perfect pet :'(
