This Silithid summons Harvester Swarm
https://www.wowhead.com/cata/npc=5409#go-to-comment-106871
They function just like regular Silithid Sarms, but they are much larger than the ones found in the Barrens. At low health, the Silithid Harvester will sacrifice one of the Harvester Swarms, bringing itself back to full health. The best way to prevent this from happening is to kill the Harvester Swarms. Melee damage reflectors such as Thorns work best for this purpose.

great shield for warriors and pallys. very very rare drop rate though.i have this shield and cruel barb and it owns:)

Commento di Korasoff

Really annoying mob to kill. When it gets low on health it will sacrifice the minions it spawns and heal to full, much like Baron Rivendare's Dark Pact ability. You can either burst it down or stun it (hint: War Stomp if you're a Tauren) to interrupt the cast. Regular interrupts do not work.

Easily soloed as a lvl22 mage.Frostbolt,fireboltx2,frost nova 2more fire bolts and he is history.

I just did the other 3 dropped quests, but this one is not showing it's face. Like the other authors posted.. this is rare. I've checked on it 3 days now. Trying to get Loremaster of Kalimdor w/ 17 quests left.

i thought he was a spider i was gona tame him but i guess i cant right?

Commento di 315008

is this beast tamable?
if so would it keep its abilities?

Commento di 328220

Took my three days waiting time; although not as long as it sounds since I only spent about one hour a day looking for the Silithid Harvester. Soloed him as a level 26 Warrior (Fury) not to bad just make sure to kill the adds he spawns. He will sap them to regain his health only other advice is to make sure to kill creatures around him and make sure no one is coming to "help" kill him.

Commento di huldu

Cant believe they still have this marked as a rare, its clearly a bug since it barely ever drops anything except the head.

Commento di 430528

There is one more quest dropper that like the harvester is a rare.....Aean Swiftriver (https://www.wowhead.com/cata/npc=5797)....a rare elite member of the alliance outrunners (all rare elites) which are lvl 22-25. She drops the Runed Scroll (https://www.wowhead.com/cata/item=10621) which starts a quest called The Runed Scroll (https://www.wowhead.com/cata/quest=3513) and follows up with Horde Presence (https://www.wowhead.com/cata/quest=3514)

Commento di wye43

14 days of logging at odd hours, a total of over 15 hours of camping, more than 40 individual checks if he is there.

It insanely rare - I started to believe he doesn't exist anymore.

Now I just found him, at 4am, I though I'll get a heart attack when NPCScan started the alarm for him. It should be an achievement in the game for finding him alone.

Commento di 528718

I'm sorry to say to the people who were camping him for so long, I found him at 2pm server time (western) while wandering the area. He walked across the road, right in front of me, and I, being the industrious feral druid that I was at the time, killed him with little trouble at level 22. I enjoyed turning in all four quests immensely.

Commento di ocelotsixx

Just saw this guy while flying to Feralas. FFFFFFF!

Commento di 458114

I must have had some awesome luck, I found this guy in about 10 minutes.

Commento di 490848

This is a Rare mob that spawns in the Fields of Gients are quite nice to find.
It dropps Harvester's Head (a quest item) and got 0.1% chanse to drop greens and even a blue item not much but its quite funny :)

Commento di 557353

I didnt even notice it was a rare spawn i was just passing by that area heading to theramore to complete my childrens week quest.He was at the begging of that small area near those rocks and other bugs.droped a quest item and some crappy grey thingy.

Commento di 586669

i was doing a shaman quest on my lvl 24 shaman, when i came across this "owatanka" beast, and a bit later i found this silithid harvester.. i guess i was just extremely lucky to find both of them in less than 5 minutes.

Commento di Zorrah

Going for Loremaster and cleaning up older quests I decided to check for this guy every day for 15 minutes or so. On my 4th day I came upon him. It took me more than a week a year ago when I was looking for him. Hang in there...he's rare but he does spawn.

Commento di 520659

Lucky me! I found him using a /target macro and found him my first try. :-)

Commento di 597189

Saw this quest went to look for him and found him instantly.

Commento di ellmer

Was seriously worried about not finding this guy after reading all these comments.

I travelled to Field of Giants nonetheless and lo and behold, there the little bastard was at 47.53, 70.36 at 4pm GMT.

Commento di ThoriumGargoyle

I was searching for rares in southern barrens on my 27 orc warrior, when I saw this guy, I was like ''YES'' And killed him.

Commento di 634536

currently i am on the search for this jerk....will post the amount of time it takes for me to find him, if or when i do.....

Commento di ShockASU

I guess I was lucky. I was looking at my loremaster quests that I still need to do for Kalimdor. This guy was showing up in my log. So - I go to field of giants, set my macro, and before I start to use it...he's walking right in front of me.

44.5, 72.3 - right at the start of the hive cluster things in Field of Giants.

Commento di Braydrel

Lol. happened to be in the barrens leveling skinning on my alt. Remembered this guy spawned once a day or something like that so i came here to check where, ran down there and there he was. lol. A rather easy fight, but i was several levels higher, and decked in heirlooms. An interrupt will stop him from healing.

edit: then i came here to type this. i thought i was far enough away but another mob killed me. XD so is life. lol.

Commento di 695592

Just wandered by while doing Loremaster and found him chillaxin at 44, 72.

Commento di 430528

This silithid is getting a makeover in the next patch. He will be a green Azerothian beetle with purple markings. He'll be the only tameable beetle with that color.

Commento di Pimon

I just found this guy 6:40 pm Est. Windrunner server. Location was 41.4,67.2 I am going to submit a screenshot as well. Hopefully it gets posted. His colors remind me of the Hulk, so I named him Bruce. :0)

Commento di 699724

Tamed at 1:20-1:25pm just south of 44, 58.7; Post 4.06 Patch! Tamed Azzere the Skyblade approx. 5-10 minutes later at the above coords...I have submitted screen shots of Both so Hopefully they make it in...

Commento di Sythas

Just tamed at 23:39 game time on Eonar EU. Was located at 41,67 same place as other tamers (roughly).

Commento di 792943

Man I am having some luck today. Tamed this beetle today (lvl 36 hunter), after questing in the area and checking back only a couple of times. and can confirm he is just Nth of the Horde's Desolation Hold. Lucky as I also picked up Tsul'Kalu <The Earth Spirit>, Mahamba <The Water Spirit> and Humar the Pridelord today as well, pretty much on first attempts.

Just used ice trap and tame, had other pet out at start so one of the adds spawned as well, but had time to kill add, dismiss pet and tame harvester before trap timed out.

Really making up for the crap luck I had yesterday finding the ghost saber (30 statues)

Commento di 563856

Mine dropped the old quest item, don't bother going to hand it in, Jorn is not in Taurajo to hand it in to.

Commento di 404863

Doesn't drop the quest-head since 4.1

Commento di Gluggz

I was about to tame it, i was all happy. Then Deathwing came -_-

Commento di 837172

I just tamed at 41 67 on first trip looking for him. Thought I might have picked a bad time since Midsummer fire is right near there and I didn't see him, but ran around the silithid mounds for a minute and suddenly there he was...dropped a freeze trap, hit tame, and bing-bang-boom, he's mine. =)

Commento di JezzebelPop

I love this pet, it always stands out and remains quite large in contrast to your other hunter pets.

Yes it's between two silithid mounds outside Desolation hold, to the gate's left. It's the only bug there so it sticks out like a sore thumb. Mind you if it were next to any other silithids it would still stick out, the colouration is so vibrant!

Defo my favourite Tenacity pet right now, replaced my Ripscale with it for the moment. Not sure if it's better or worse in terms of damage/defence but it does have a nice speed boost when going for the enemy. Plus i've not seen anybody on my realm with a beetle so far so it's a nice change to the bears and crocolisks. I just need a good name for it.

Commento di 278068

If you happen to come across this wanting to tame it, but you're too low a level, and you happen to aggro it and want to not kill it so it'll still be alive when you gain enough levels to actually tame it, don't make the mistake of accidentally kiting it into the guards. -.-* If that happens, you don't even get the rare xp / loot as a consolation prize.

Commento di 801269

Tamed this beetel yesterday. Looks best paired with Emerald Raptor mount, mon.

Commento di Ladihawke73

just tamed, exodar, at 12:20 pm, pacific. 3:20 pm realm time. at the spot indicated, easy tame for lvl 72 :)
pretty pet if you want a green one.

Commento di 980776

Went there.. looked for 5 minuets and then logged out.. half hour later logged back in and it was there! Too lucky!

Commento di 1012020

Today I tamed this beetle on my level 34 hunter. I just logged on to my hunter who was at Desolation old and started walking north. I really didn't expect him to be there so I didn't bother stabling my other 2 pets but when I got there he was just sitting there minding his own business. I immediately ran back to Desolation hold and stabled my pets. Once I got there I set down a ice trap then concussive shot him. He avoided my trap and summoned his swarm and I expected myself to die, but tried to tame anyway. I managed to tame him with 30 hp left! He was well worth it though. Good luck to any other hunters trying to tame him!

Commento di Thottbot

Be very careful with this mob.

It spawns minions constantly,
and it will full heal itself after it starts to lose and become a LOT meaner.

Commento di Thottbot

The Harvester is teh suck. He's a powered-up Swarmer with a freaking healing ability! And he doesn't show up with Hunter Tracking abilities, so don't rely on that if you're hunting it down. He's a great hunt, but very difficult for his level range.

Tip: Always, always, ALWAYS make sure you've got him isolated when you fight him. You get ANY adds, unless you're significantly more powerful, the chance of your death is exceedingly great. He's strong enough as is, don't fight his friends at the same time.

Commento di Thottbot

I cant freakin find him, and I have never seen him in the barrens. Please give me some information about where to look for him. That map dont help me much. Could he be found in Razorfen?

Commento di Thottbot

heh must have been my lucky day...killed this guy when i was level 21, and it was level 24.
i'm a shaman, so i earthshocked his healing ability :D. and as for the annoying little spiders, fire nova totem & lightning shield FTW!

dropped that head quest thingy...

Commento di Thottbot

He is in the field of Giants. I killed insects for a while before I finally saw him. I got into a big fight with 4 mobs at once and killed them. Then, coincidence or not, the Silithid Harvester was in front of me.

Commento di Thottbot

Killed him as a 23 hunter without a problem. Multi-shot took care of his little buddies and other than that i just layed the womp down on him =)

Commento di Thottbot

if your gunna beat him kill the little addons he summons first when he summons themn cause they heal him and clear area 1st before fighting really easy lvl 24 silver elite i was a 23 rougue

Commento di Thottbot

This guy is insane. I dont know how the shaman silenced him with Earthshock since neither Kick or Arcane Torrent worked. He kept healing, I used Evasion and still, couldnt kill this guy. Had to sprint once and Vanish. Dont try this if you aint sure what he hits aswell.

Commento di Thottbot

How dose he looks, cant find him, help me!

Commento di Thottbot

ty soloed as a 20 shammy..just a tank and spank..let the flametong wear him down and heal...thx lots for the lightning shield tip dropped quest thing

Commento di Thottbot

Just soloed it as level 21 rogue when he heals just gogue and nuke

Commento di Thottbot

As mentioned before, he's found in the Field of Giants. I killed him at roughly 43,70

Commento di Thottbot

pretty easy as a belf pally tbh, just hammmer of justice when he tries to heal and if he spawns adds, consecrate.

Commento di Thottbot

Killing him:
i killed him and 2 swarmers with thier pets(at same time) with a 26 druid(in cat form entire time) and he was no problem.

Finding him:
This was hard, just search around the Field of Giants(i found him on east side) but other that that i bet you could just walk around until you find him and then kill him, he is kinda hard to find u just gotta look.

Result:
I got 2400 exp and it was pretty quick, i did all the kill guy then bring thier parts to Jorn Skyseer and gained quite a bit exp, it is worth it to kill ham and the other special guys.

Commento di Thottbot

this ugy heals himself, i had no idea, and he had adds O.o i never noticed, wen i found him(new to game) i killed him and thought hed be there again, nvr thought hed be a rare, anyways this happened about 1 year ago lol, just recoverin old memories

Commento di Thottbot

easy for me...im a 20 turan druid that pwned him...balance druid...well anyway sense we have thorns all its spons die instanly when they att only had to heal 1ns with healing touch

Commento di Thottbot

lol i killed this little sucker today.....but the exciting part was he dropped Night Watch Shortsword and i sold it for 37g...

Commento di Thottbot

Okay im pretty sure when he summons the ADDS if you dont kill them, they will sacrifice themselves and FULLY heal the harvester.

Im pretty sure of this because when I was fighting him on my lvl 23 priest I wasnt killing the adds and all of a sudden one of the adds flips upside down dead and BAM harvester at full health.. Got him eventually though

FOR THE HORDE!

Commento di Thottbot

i killed him whith my level 48 warrior he was pretty easy i found him whith the other spider where u do the warrior quest

Commento di Thottbot

Not tameable and the head"quest" is for horde only.

didnt even drop a green....

Commento di Thottbot

Found the Harvester by making a Macro for /target silithid harvester, then used Bloodshards in Camp Taurajo, particularly added speed from Mangletooth, ran south to the Field of Giants at warpspeed, zoomed in and out of the mounds on the West side of the road and spammed the entire area with the Macro, no good. Ran East across the road and was out of speedjuice but fully loaded with all the other boosts I picked up from Mangletooth. So I worked my way towards the middle of the first bunch of mounds on the *East* side of the road, and there he was. He spawns rather Large minions, very quickly, and they heal him FAST. These are not tiny bugs, and they move as fast as the Harvester. Didn't note if they *died* and healed the Harvester by doing so, as they were doing the beat-down on my Voidwalker and things weren't looking good for ol' Blue. So I did the Rain-of-Fire dance and hosed everything. Dropped nothing but the head. Level 28 Warlock, and used 30 bloodshards to pick up all the boosts possible from Mangletooth, made it quick to put the Harvester down.

Commento di Allakhazam

I saw him on the west side on the 16/5-07

Commento di Allakhazam

Ive found him twice, one on the east side in the middle of th mounds and once on the west, also in the middle.

Commento di Allakhazam

I have found him about 3 times, all he ever drops is a head for a quest my race can not do. I feel I am wasting him, but can not, not kill him when I see him.

Commento di Allakhazam

We know about the Barren's Triad of quest giving mobs.
Lakota'mani
Lakota'mani Pawne
Washte Pawne Silithid Harvester is to add to this Triad, now it becomes the Barrens' Fantastic Four! (with the harvester leader, he's hardest to find and kill).

Commento di Allakhazam

Has anyone seen him recently because I have been looking for a while. What's the respawn duration? I would appreciate any info. THNX

Commento di Allakhazam

After 5 level 60's, I finally found him. Quite a hard battle, he spawns add's that have less than 10hp every couple seconds, and he heals himself once when he gets to low life. Pulled him away, dot'd him up, feared for the win.

And no, he's not tameable.

Commento di Allakhazam

yes checked both sides been into this quests for 7 hours now and still nothing i've looked in every nock and cran and lvled 3 times still no harvester

Commento di Allakhazam

The hardest thing about this quest is finding him... I looked everytime I went through the barrens till level 37 before finding him. Like others have said... Only dropped the head. He's easy to see as he doesn't look like any other mob in the Barrens.

Commento di Allakhazam

Even tho this is not a beats :D Is he tamable?
Feel stupid even asking, but i just had to!

Commento di Allakhazam

Is this mob still around at all? I've never ever seen him...

Commento di Allakhazam

to be honest he never apear when a person is there -.-
But if he is there he is easy enough to see so if he there kill him if not then yu can w8 or just let it go (i found him 4 times each time in a different place)

Commento di cptmyname

Unlike the other three "Barrens Hunt" creatures, which are all normal mobs that respawn after 5 minutes or so, the Silithid Harvester is a silver dragon rare mob and can go hours or even days without appearing once. If you're interesting in completing this set of quests, be prepared to check his spawn points regularly for days.

Once you've found him though he's an easy kill. If you can handle one of the nearby Silithid Swarmers, he won't put up much more of a struggle than they did.

Commento di njbaker7

Found him at 44,72 today!

Commento di ixupi

I finally found him today (after a month of checking every day). He was on the EAST side of the road, at about 47.2, 70.1. It was my first time checking the other side of the road. Wish I would have thought about that a long time ago.

Commento di Beliebt

This mob is truly a nightmare. I have been at it for 41 hours now on and off and have not even seen it once. It also doesn't help that basic wow etiquette of old has been completely lost. No one ever announces Dragon Timers in chat and passersby will kill rare spawns with no intention of looting or questing. Very annoying.

Commento di ZanathKariashi

At which point does he shift from Rare Elite to Rare? Always been curious about that. I killed it on my hunter, shaman, and warrior back when he was rare elite, and then came back to level a new hordey today and he was simply rare. I always assumed the change happened during the old world quest revamp in TBC, but apparently they did some elite nerfs in late classic (the green dragonkin around the Sunken temple also went from elite to normal at some point).

Commento di Anon3612

Seems to have an very long respawn timer in Classic. Ran around both camps 3 times spamming a /target macro, nothing. Not even a corpse. Did a couple quests and came back, ran around both camps again...nothing.

Commento di Muskarcina

Found him at 42,70.

Commento di BloodCaster

Waited respawn for 7.5 hours without any success. So try to not waste all your time on it.

Commento di TommyMurf98

Found him on 2nd day of looking on my first lap, don't know if he is still that rare.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zgQ6KXdo4Uo

Commento di Rampagee

I have found him today morning 6:50. Good advice for those completists as I:
- Do not try to search him in rush hours and weekends.
- Get up early for morning check
- If you do not find him immediately, do not wait for him, respawn time 2-12 hours.
- Check both eastern and western location

Commento di 2300366

Spawns exactly at 42.86 70.44 (Spawned there twice now in SoD), does have a 2-12h spawn timer. I waited 3 hours.

Useful stuff to find him more easily:
- Get the addon RareScanner and change the sound to something annoying
- Go into your audio settings and turn on background sound
- Get the Weakaura wago.io/Ytq7BFq-7 and use this ID: 3253. It allows you to create a macro to spam while watching something and once you target the mob around you it will make an Air Horn sound.
- possible macro: /tar Silithid Harvester

May you be free at last!

Commento di Domebuddy

I camped this mob twice in SoD phase 1 for prequesting. It spawned once at around 47, 70 and another time at around 44, 69.

Safe to say that this mob has multiple spawn points in SoD, despite what other comments imply.

Silithid Harvester
