I searched for a lvl 33 hyena to learn Dash from ( im also lvl 33 )

Let it be known that this mob does not travel alone. They usually have at least 4 other friends close by ( and of higher lvl ).

Unless you have a friendly & powerful mage handy, I'd travel to SV to learn Dash.

Two things: The first time I tamed one of these it was the level 36, and it didn't have dash. The 33 did, so just watch out for that.

Also, they do travel in packs, but I found the best way to break them up (and it's fun too) is tame solo beasts surrounding the hyenas and send them in to die while you feign death. You'll dwindle the pack population to a managable level that way.

The other hyenas of the pack are really low HP...500 something.
Steps to complete:

++ Pet attack, and shot one lvl 35
++ if necessary "Feign Death"
++Repeat until only lvl 33 left.

Oh..btw...set your pet on passive.

This can easily be done solo. Dash makes such a difference to your pet, so it is worth getting early.

Bachet on Boulderfist US( lvl 33 when I did this)

is it possible to learn dash to a pet below level 30 when you first learn it from one of the hyenas?
i saw a pack of theese the other day, and the 34 and the 33 had the dash ability as an tamed ability.

1. Have a temp pet.
2. Set a Freeze Trap well behind where you engage the pack.
3. Send your temp pet into the pack.
4. Kill all of them sans one and abandon your pet.
5. Run past your trap pulling the last one.
6. Hit the tame button.

If your pet can't hold aggro on them something is wrong, and make sure when you start there aren't any mobs around that will aggro. It also helps to either put your pet on aggressive or defensive because if it's on passive he will pull the pack back to you which might trigger the trap too soon depending on where you set it.

What's the general area these guys roam around? Any coords?

Comment by Allakhazam

Just wanted to share. The map above shows the location of the hyenas. It is wrong. I spent time in Desolace looking for them, in order to train one to learn the "dash" ability.

The ones shown on the map locations, are "starving bonepaw hyenas". Theese are not the ones that will teach you dash. Theese starving ones travel in a group of 5, and are levels 30-33.

The Bonpaw hyenas that can teach you dash, are level 34-35, and they also travel in a pach of 5-6. They roam the western edge of desolace, west of the Kodo graveyard, a little NorthEast of Shadowprey village.

Just FYI.

Alright I see that they run as a pack and I ran all the way here without a pet to tame one so this had me figure out a way to do it!

Frost Trap!
Put down a frost trap, shoot one hyena and trick it inside the trap, now just run away until the rest of the hyenas loose aggro and then start running back for the frost trapped single hyena and now you can easily solo tame this one without getting aggro on the rest.
No need to make it harder

The best thing about these guys is that they stop mid-combat, sit down and scratch their ear. Priorities :)
