If you have 3 level 25 mechanicals, you can best Gorespine... but it can be close. Since he is a beast, he should have a weak defense against mechanicals.

Personally I used Clockwork gnome, Rabid Nut Varmint 5000, and a stoned Mechanical Pandaren Dragonling (one of my personal favs).

I used the Fire-Proof Roach as my first pet. Used the ability Apocalypse. The ability killed him when the meteor hit, after 15 rounds. I guess any roach or beetle with the ability would do. The roach must be alive and the pet in play when the meteor hits btw.

Lil' XT can almost solo this by using Heartbroken to do double damage. Open with XE-321 Boombot, then use to Heartbroken, then Zap until Lil' XT is dead. Lil' XT should live long enough that the Boombot will also hit for double damage.

Commento di 367644

If you use your Clockwork Gnome, use the Launch Rocket ability instead of the Turrets. His Spiked Skin ability will absorb every hit of the turrets, making them useless.

Commento di 437673

This was the only one of the new pet battles that I had much trouble with. I only have two 25 mechanicals, Clockwork Gnome and Fluxfire Kitty, and they weren't able to cut it. I added Anubisath Idol to the mix, and he basically soloed Gorespine using Demonlish, Stoneskin and Deflection .

I use sirinad's suggestion - my pets are Terrible Turnip/Sprite Darter Hatchling/Brilliant Kaliri) - which works for every one of these guys, though there are a couple healers for which it's probably easier to use 3 of the appropriate counter class.

Commento di shoutingboy

I had a lot of trouble with this one. I finally beat him by starting with a Wild Golden Hatchling--his Call Lightning is mechanical, it does a lot of damage to a beast--and then followed with Clockwork Gnome (the lightning storm gives his rocket a 25% bonus). Those two killed him, I didn't need my third pet.

Important Notes:

There's No xp multiplier for defeating Elite Battle Pets.
They have higher drop rates for rare stones and alt panda pets.
The bag for the fable daily has a very large chance to contain a random rare upgrade stone.

While trying to upgrade my Silent Hedgehog, I happened to stumble across Gorespine at Dread Wastes (26.16, 50.00). He was surrounded by six Silent Hedgehogs. Five of the Silent Hedgehogs were on the hill with him. I lucked out in a battle with the Silent Hedgehog that was just below the hill and got a rare. For those without coordinates, Gorespine at the top of the ridge in the Southwest Corner of the continent.

I took Gorespine down with:

Effervescent Glowfly (Primarily used Glowing Toxin, followed by Confusing Sting, and Scratch)
Sandy Petrel (Primarily used Liftoff, followed by Adrenaline Rush (to get the speed advantage), and Thrash)
Mechanical Squirrel using Overtune, followed by Metal Fist.

The critical spell was the Glowing Toxin, since it is based on the target's percentage of hits points. At 6% each turn, it was my most effective attack.

I was really bummed when I figured out that I couldn't capture him!

Commento di Diodor

I completely destroyed this guy using Anubisath idol (Demolish, Stoneskin, Rupture) & Fluxfire Feline (Pounce). Didnt even need the 3rd pet. Tho i had to redo the fight 2-3 times until i had lucky streak with Demolish ability.

Commento di Stormcan

May be bugged? I just killed him twice and did not get credit for the kill either time. :(

Commento di 578928

I defeated with Shrine fly, Garden Moth and Robo Chick.

One thing to note. If you Robo Chick is the only one left standing, dies and rezzes and defeats him, you will not get credit for the kill. I had Robo Chick go last and that's what happened. I put him in second (after I applied Glowing Toxin) and it worked like a charm since I still had my Garden Moth up.

Commento di Mathaylla

Since I don't have any lvl 25 mechanicals yet, I tried beating him with all kinds of different combinations of Gilded Moth, Emperor Crab, Corefire Imp, Softshell Snapling, Mr. Grubbs and Wild Crimson Hatchling. He demolished every team I threw at him - I think the lowest I got him was 644 hp. After losing 8 times in a row, I ran out of patience (and bandages) and went for the "one-shot" mechanic: used my lvl 23 Resilient Roach to start the battle with casting Apocalypse. Then immediately pulled him back and used Emperor Crab and Gilded Moth to beat on Gorespine for 12 rounds, until he killed them both. With just the roach alive, cast Survival, and he survived with 1 hp when the meteor finally hit.

Update: if he puts the Bleeding dot on the roach on the first round - that's unlucky RNG, I have to forfeit and start over. Since the dot is strong against the critter, the roach cannot survive 5 rounds of the dot, even if I immediately pull him to the back.

Commento di 1066931

Killing Gorespine with apocalypse seems to be bugged, three times dead, three times I didn't get credit for the quest. So I tried a new strategy that worked quite well. He seems to be extremely resistant to damage, and his bleed kills pets so quickly you don't get time to beat him down slowly, so I tried a method suggested by another poster, but with an extra twist.

I started with a pet that could cast "sunlight". "Terrible Turnip" worked quite well, but any pet with "sunlight" would do. The idea is to increase Gorespine's "maximum health" to as high as possible. Once you have sunlight active, you can beat on Gorespine until your first pet dies, or swap him out to your second pet. I let the Turnip die to avoid losing a round to the swapping penalty.

My second pet was able to cast "glowing toxin." This dot deals 6% of the target's max health as damage every round. From what I could see, it was dealing damage based on the maximum health set by sunlight, so the damage was quite massive. I used a shrine fly that was only level 22, so I swapped him out as soon as "glowing toxin" and his second dot, "confusing sting" were both active. Confusing sting has a 10% chance for the target to harm themselves while attacking and does a small amount of damage every round, which doesn't hurt.

I used a third pet with a good strong DOT and some avoidance, the "Festering Maggot" but I probably could have just used a pet with a lot of avoidance or self-healing. Gorespine was dead two rounds into the swap, leaving me with two pets alive. That glowing toxin works FAST.

I would like to thank sirinad for his comments on the perfect team here:

https://www.wowhead.com/mop-classic/npc=68560#comments

You can do all of the Beasts of Fable if you read his very good post on which pets to have and why. I have basically one shotted every Beast of Fable with only 1 team.

Commento di alpanhell

Looks like blizz has lowered the health drastically on the legendaries AND added an elite buff that lowers all damage they take by 50%. I don't remember seeing this in the patch notes anywhere?

I love how they just randomly change stuff in this game...

Commento di igooana

With the changes for patch 5.3 I was able to beat him with a nether faerie dragon, sprite darter hatchling (they are equivalent) and an anubisath idol for the last pet slot.
Strategy: Arcane blast until your health is at about 700 then use life exchange. Swap to other dragon and do the same thing. He should be below 1000 hp at this point. Use arcane blast until your pet is killed. Cue Anubisath idol and demolish until gorespine dies.

Commento di Balgair

This one is really nasty since 5.3; he takes hardly any damage between the elite buff that makes all attacks do 50% dmg to him, and his own Spiked Skin damage reduction; and if you use anything with small damage, attacks tend to reflect about as much as you deal. Priority now is the largest damage abilities possible, however you can't really use ones with a windup time as your pets don't live long enough; his Scratch seems to hit for 700+ when he's below half health.

Unfortunately I don't have a high level Anubisath Idol (levelling one will be a priority now) but I eventually got him down using:

Nether Faerie Dragon; the above mentioned method of using Life Exchange to bring him down to about half health (requires some luck with timing so can take a few tries)
Personal World Destroyer; I got lucky and Screeching Gears actually did stun him on the successful attempt, between that and the mechanical passive to ressurect, you can deal a fair chunk of damage, Metal Fist at least deals 200+ damage to him.
Kun'Lai Runt; humanoids take less damage from Gorespine's Scratch, and Rampage does damage in large chunks, so actually makes some impact on his health.

No, this combination is not ideal by any means, but it's an option which may give some more ideas for those like me who haven't got the perfect pets levelled up yet!

Commento di 1058762

got this one down after starting with my nether faerie dragon (ability 3, then 1, then 2) life exchange did a lot of his hp (he had like 60% left) then i used my minfernal (ability 3) fast and did another 20% off his hp
one hit of my mechanical was enough to down him ;)
good luck!

Commento di rweagle

I beat him with the following pets on the first attempt. It didn't give me credit for the kill. Tried re-logging but that didn't work so I killed him again and got credit that time:

Rabid Nut Varmint 5000 - used Extra Plating, then Rabid Strike, then Metal Fist until he killed this pet.
Flayer Youngling - just used Rampage until he killed this pet.
Curious Wolvar Pup - only had to use Maul once and then he was dead.

Commento di aspasito

After trying a variety of approaches after 5.3 and failing, I've finally managed to get this one down. First of all, the "Apocalypse and live 15 turns" approach does not work with this pet, at least I could not find a team who survived, and I've tried a number of combinations. The team that worked for me was:

Lil XT - for his mechanical "XE-321 Boombot" ability, mainly
Nether Faerie Dragon - for the "Life Exchange" (Sprite Darter Hatchling will work too, for example)
Lucky Quilen Cub - This was truly optional. Anything with Burrow, Lift Off, etc will work. I though maybe his heal would be helpful, but Gorespine hits so hard that any healing ability cannot overcome 1 turn worth of damage of his (unless he refreshes his shield that turn). Also, prefer a pet faster than him, which the Quilen is.

My tactic went like this:
1. Start with Lil XT, put up a bomb
2. Switch directly to Nether Faerie Dragon. I cast one moonfire, than did the exchange (You cannot survive to cast one more spell, ALSO you want to hit before the bomb!) The bomb than hits him (and hopefully not misses). Hit until your Dragon dies, mine went in one turn, sadly. Do not try to rotate and use one more life exchange; 1) every switch is 500+ life hit to you and 2) with the life nerf the second time around won't hit much with the Exchange)
3. Burrow/Lift Off Pet, here just do your big damage and fight until death, usually one more turn. I didn't go for a heal, cause as I mentioned it does not gain you anything...
4. Back to Lil XT, finish him off with your zap now, should end the fight with 500ish health.

Now, I know a team of three mechanicals can probably kill him without these small adjustments, but someone who is doing the Fabled quest usually has a combination like I described even if not 3 mechanicals, so here it is. Hope it helps..

Also; if you're off some levels with a nice pet, the constantly replenishing Silent Hedgehogs around him was nice & fast to battle against. Found 2 rares (A hedgehog and a Moth) while levelling up a pet for another previous fail strategy.

Commento di 1123332

Just killed this guy and did manage to use the Apocalypse tactic though it was a close one.

Started with Rare Fire Beetle, Cast Apoc and one Cauterise before switching out to:

Flayer Youngling: Cast Deflection, and one Rampage. Switch to:

Emerald Proto: Open with emerald dream, then ancient blessing, just soaking damage. Stay until it dies.

Back to flayer, deflection again as much as possible til dead

Back to beetle, cauterise til you win.

It was pretty close, and I think it was probably dependent on a couple of misses or how many times he casts his non-damage move.

If you are doing the Apocalypse tactic, if you have no healing moves available then just PASS your go, so that you dont take damage from the spike shield

Commento di Crimsonshade

Another optional team for 5.3
Unborn Valkyr, Anubisath Idol, Lil'XT

Valkyr - unholy ascension, rebirh + curse of doom.
lil'xts turn, bombbot and swap to
anubis - deflection to fill a turn then demolish.
swap back to XT and try to get a 2nd bombbot up, xt will die and repeat anubisath's part.

Commento di ojjuiceman

best pet for me was Amber Moth with moth dust and cocoon strike

Commento di DELcroutonza

It took several tries and a lot of luck but I can do this. All are level 25 rares.

Anodized Robo Cub
Health: 1709
Damage: 289
Speed: 227
Demolish / Rebuild / Supercharge

Luyu Moth
Health: 1400
Damage: 289
Speed: 289
Alpha Strike / Cocoon Strike / Moth Dust

Fungal Moth
Health: 1627
Damage: 227
Speed: 305
Alpha Strike / Cocoon Strike / Moth Dust

My Strategy

1. I opened with Robo Cub, Supercharge. Then, Demolish. If Demolish misses, I quit the match and revive. If it doesn't miss, I hit demolish until it's obvious I'm going to get killed the next round. Then I hit Rebuild. I get killed, I resurrect and add the Rebuild health points, and I should be good for one more Demolish.

2. Next is the moth with the highest damage. For both moths, I open with Moth Dust, then Cocoon Strike, then Alpha Strike. I keep cycling through that for both moths. When they come off cooldowns, I prioritize Cocoon Strike over Moth Dust. If you last this long, Moth Dust will be your last hit before you die.

This tactic definitely works for me, but only if Robo Cub doesn't miss the first and second demolish, and if any of the Moth Dust attacks don't miss. If they miss, you're probably going to lose. It takes a couple of rounds usually but I get him.

I have tried a roach / beetle with apocalypse, using both flying with cocoon strikes, and snakes with burrows, but they never last long enough. Sometimes that tactic works with Nitun, but once again you have to be lucky.

It seems that it takes a lot of out-of-the-box thinking to beat these Legendary pets. They definitely are not for leveling pets anymore!

Hope this helps.

Commento di 734295

I just want to go on record as saying screw Gorespine.

Commento di Treebloom

After derping it up for at least 15 attempts, I finally found a very easy way to do this. As per all legendary pets, it does have its share of RNG, but I did manage to one-shot it with this tactic.

Fox Kit : Flurry - Howl - Dazzling Dance
Zandalari Anklerender : Hunting Party - Leap - Black Claw
Zandalari Kneebiter : Hunting Party - Leap - Black Claw
*They don't need to specifically these pets. Any Fox with the moves listed above will work. Two Anklerenders or Kneebiters will also be fine.

Turn 1: Fox Kit uses Dazzling Dance
Turn 2: Fox Kit uses Howl
Turn 3: Fox Kit uses Flurry (Fox Kit needs to die this turn)
Turn 4: Anklerender selected - uses Hunting Party
Turn 5: Hunting Party con't
Turn 6: Anklerender uses Black Claw (Should die after this move).
Turn 7: Kneebiter uses Hunting Party
Turn 8: Hunting Party con't

After that, Gorespine should be dead.

The premise of this tactic is to maintain a 100% uptime on some sort of damage increase while Hunting Party is active. The Fox Kit's Howl will be up for the first turn of the Anklerender's Hunting Party while the Hunting Party itself will apply another 100% increase for the second turn. Black Claw from the Anklerender will segue into the Kneebiter's Hunting Party for a second super-powered Hunting Party.

Good luck to those of you as frustrated as I was!

Commento di Daedralia

dark phoenix hatchling ...dark flame x2 ..switch

nether faerie dragon ......arcane blast x 2 ...near 1100 use .. life exchange... switch

anubisath idol ......demolish (hoping it hits )if it hit u should be like around 200 pts ...stone skin... then rupture hopefully he is dead now

GOOD JOB

Good luck to those of you as frustrated as I was!

Commento di Macazzar

Tried 3 mechanicals on this today and it worked well:-

Lil 'XT bomb switch to
Clockwork Gnome Rocket - repair - Metal Fist till dead
Son of Animus Extra plating - Siphon Anima - Metal Fist till dead
Lil ' XT Zap

Lil ' XT still had half health when Gorespine died

Not sure if I was lucky with RNG but will try same line up tomorrow

Commento di hootstwo

I used Rabid Nut Varmint and Clockwork Gnome, both are faster than Gorespin, so they get in a good number of Metal Fist hits. Any other pet that gets a couple of hits in, should be good enough to do it. I was able to get through pretty easily even with a couple of crappy RNG misses :(

Commento di VoodooDues

As of 5.3 this guy is definitely much more difficult. With the 50% damage reduction from Elite, and additional damage reflected back to you due to Spiked Skin, the most effective approach is to maximize large damage hits, rather than dots.

I tried a few of the methods suggested above, and this is what I found most effective-

1st pet: Alpine Foxling

-Lead with Dazzling Dance

-Fill with 1-2 Bite only if you feel you will have enough health to cast an additional spell after

-Make your last cast before death Howl

2nd pet: Kun-Lai Runt

-Cast Rampage first. Combined with the double damage from howl, the first hit will be massive.

-If your Kun-Lai Runt is still alive after Rampage, cast Takedown

3rd pet: Clockwork Gnome

-Launch Rocket till Gorespine is dead.

-If you don't have enough health left to charge up another rocket before launching, hit him with Railgun.

Edit: links ended up showing properly. Fixed formatting.

I've killed the guy ~~twice~~ four times now and have yet to receive credit for killing him. He is the last beast on my quest list. No i am not in a raid. Any known issue or a new bug?

Commento di orangecat666

This guy has become really tough.
I finally got him with 2 Clockwork Gnomes & LIL XT.
each Clockwork gnome was able to get 2 rockets off killing him.
I didn't even have to use LIL XT...lol

Commento di redheadmonster

Took a bit to figure this out, but got a group that works. All level 25's

Anodized Robo Cub-Rare
Supercharge
Demolish (if demolish misses, start over) then
Repair if you're close to dying. When you rez you might be able to get one more
Demolish

Mechanical Dragon-Uncommon
Decoy
Breath x 2, then if close to dying hit
Explode

Anubisath Idol-Rare-(used a stone for this was uncommon)
Deflection,
Sandstorm, then
Demolish

If you have missed shots you might have to start over, I missed on my first Demolish on Cub and still won. This has worked twice now for me. Good Luck..hate this bastard.

Commento di 182289

Thank you for the toxin tip! Works wonders! :}

Commento di 193355

Used 3 Anodized RoboCubs lvl 25 all three demolish with success.

Commento di groohl

Alpine foxling (S/S): Dazzling Dance + Howl ------> Fox must die to get 2x Howl effect

Anubisath Idol: Demolish x2 (50% hit chance, so you might have to finish off with third pet)

Done.

Commento di 1116860

After 6 frustrating attempts with different combinations within all my 25s this is the one that worked for me:

Sunreaver Micro-Sentry 1-2-1 Start with Call Lightning as is the strongest and lasting DOT
Fortunately for me, his first hit missed (unbelievable surprise)
So I get did a decent amount of damage before he killed me.

Mei Li Sparkler 2-2-2 Start with Glowing Toxin, keep yourself alive a little longer with Cocoon
Strike and damage with Slicing Wind, although it does not hit hard,
combined with the Toxin and the Lightning it will at least leave him around
600 or 500 before it kills Mei Li.

Menagerie Custodian 2-1-2 Start with Ion Canon as is the strongest, you'll get hit hard while
you're in recovery mode but with Shock and Awe plus the lingering
of the Lighting it will be enough to leave the Managerie the last
pet standing!

Good luck!

Commento di Qliyo

I killed him with Darkmoon Zeppelin, Clockwork Gnome and Lil' XT.

Commento di 1131125

None of that advice worked. I used Mechanical (doesnt do ^&*!), Humanoids take less damage my ass. My Kun-Lai runt was dead in 2-3 attacks. Everescant glowfly was probably the closest i got, they do take less damage, but i cant seem to find a combination that will allow me to just finish him off. My Great Horned Owl is %^&* with this one too. Flying is supposed to take less damage? Welll, he only had to attack my pet twice to kill him. So far Amber Moth and Glowfly have been most useful, maybe the moth and 2 glowflys will help me defeat him. Ive gotten close most the time, just havent been able to beat him yet -_-

Commento di 1131759

After MANY MANY tries, I finally got this guy. I used 2 moth's. One a Luyu and one an Amber as well as my rare Alpine Fox. Hope this helps!

Commento di 377408

L25 Clockwork Gnome
L25 Landro's Lil XT
L25 Darkmoon Tonk

Brute force method...just kept tossing them in to grind him down. Thankfully there's no self heal or huge bursty attack (I'm looking at you, Goat pet from the tamer in Kun-Lai), so by the time I got to the Tonk, he was pretty well down. Lock On finished him off.

Commento di 804492

*EDIT: Unfortunately, Gorespine's Spiked Skin got buffed after patch 5.3.0, rendering this method useless.

I used a unique tactic that uses only these TWO pets:

Clockwork Gnome Level 25 (Abilities: Metal Fist, Repair, and Build Turret)
Zandalari Kneebiter Level 25 (Abilities: Hunting Party, Black Claw, and Bloodfang)

Because Clockwork Gnome opens with Build Turret, Gorespine decides to primarily uses Spiked Skin, which reduces damage taken and inflicts a damaging attack back. To counter this, I used this sequence of attack:

Open with the Build Turret attack from Clockwork Gnome.
Swap to Zandalari Kneebiter and use Black Claw, followed by Bloodfang.
If Zandalari Kneebiter dies after Black Claw, go to step 3.
Swap back to Clockwork Gnome and cast Build Turret once again, and hit Gorespine with Metal Fist.
Throw another Metal Fist into his face.

Yup. It's that simple. Gorespine gets obliterated by a punching-robot-gnome with turrets and a cute, little raptor that likes nibbling on knees.

Commento di Veratus

I found that the key to this guy was big hits, so I used:

Lil' Bad Wolf with Howl and Claw
Anodized Robo Cub with Supercharge and Demolish
Anything (maybe another mechanical pet that can supercharge and demolish)

I opened with howl and kept clawing til the Lil' Bad Wolf carked it.

I then followed with the Anodized Robo Cub - it's risky using Supercharge and Demolish due to the 50% hit rate - but I found that when it hits, it hits -hard-. I found Gorespine was dead after that hit landed.

Commento di elixis

I used 2 Alpine Fox's and Lil XT
opened with a Dazzling Dance
then Howl and Bite
Switched to XT planted a bomb and Zapped him till XT died
Then howl and bite on 2nd Fox till the bomb finished him off.

Commento di outdorzy1

TWO hours of fighting this beast with multiples of combinations...uuugh! I finally decided to take some time and level a couple of the blue rare fliers I had on the hedgehogs around Gorespine and then was successful with the following:

Oasis Moth (lvl 25 rare) slicing wind, cocoon and moth dust (should use it first since the moth dust will not work if glowing toxin is active and working.....but still worked second in line up for me)

Mei Li Sparkler (lvl 25 rare) slicing wind, cocoon and glowing toxin

Shrine Fly (lvl 23 rare) same as above

ps...while leveling managed to capture a couple rares as well so worth the time and effort imo

Commento di Kenywi

Since patch 5.3 these battles have become a lot harder. For Gorespine <after many trial and errors> I found Effervescent Glowfly, Fluxfire Feline and Mei Li Sparkler to work best for me. Now there are a number of different "Firefly's" to choose from I selected the ones with the highest damage output.

I started with the Glowfly useing Glowing toxin then Confusing Sting, Slicing wind, and then renewing Glowing toxin before it died. While the poisons are ticking I went with the FFF next. Start with Overtune, then Supercharge and finally Pounce. At that point your FFF is out and we're at our last "Firefly" to dot up with the poisons. I was able to get Glowing Toxin, Confused sting and then ended with Slicing wind to finish it off.

Hope this helps everyone.

Commento di Xarlequin

After having done this a few times, I realise there are only a few abilitys that are needed to beat all the elite pets easily.

The key players in my 'elite team' for these three dailys consist of:
Alpine Foxling Kit
Anubisath Idol
Garden Moth
Silky Moth
Fluxfire Feline
Fossilized Hatchling

The key here is to use the fox to buff the damage you deal in combination with two pets that share the same ability. In this case: Demolish, Claw and Moth Dust.

Below follows a much more advanced description of what it is I do. I am aware that there probably are stronger or more suitable pets to use, and the strategy works with almost any pets with these abilities. The point here was simply to narrow down how many pets was needed to beat these dailys easily. I also want to point out that I usually only need to use two pets and leave the third unharmed, but it's handy to have it there as a back up in case of miss-streaks or enemy critting.

As you might notice, most (maybe all) of these elites are either critter, beast or aquatic. What I do is basically starting off with the fox, using Dazzling Dance in the start of the fight, and timing a Howl right before the fox dies. This goes for each of the fights.

Then, if the enemy is aquatic, I run the fox aswell as 2 moths (Both using Alpha Strike, Cocoon Strike and Moth Dust) in my team to easily nuke down the aquatic enemy which is very easy with the damage buff from Howl.

If the enemy is beast, I run the fox as mentioned above aswell as Anubisath Idol, Anodized Robo Cub. Both those pets are running Demolish. As Demolish has a low hit chance you will sometimes lose because you end up with 6 misses in a row, but usualy it kills the enemy in two or three hits at the most.

If the enemy is a critter, I run the fox aswell as Fluxfire Feline and Fossilized Hatchling, both running Claw. These abilities will hit hard with the buff active. In case it runs out or in case you are up against a shielded or healing enemy, you can also use Prowl to counter the shield or healing abilitys.

Commento di hootstwo

Rabid Nut Varmint is beast on this guy. I've got one that's got a speed of 325 so he's faster than Gorespine. First thing is to toss up Extra Plating, next Rabid Strike, then just Metal Fist until he's done. For me, I've normally got Gorespine down to about 6-700 health remaining. Next up, Clockwork Gnome, who's got a speed of 289, again, just slightly faster than Gorespine.

I can get in two full launch rockets with him if I have to (unless RNG has been playing not nice), I keep another mech in 3rd spot for the very rare case where these two don't do it themselves (I can't honestly remember the last time that the two on their own haven't done it, but I'm confident I've had to rely on the 3rd pet at some time).

The 325 Rabid Nut Varmint is just a GREAT pet to use on all Beasts.

Commento di 252773

Killed this guy first try, but I might have been lucky:

Chrominius: Bite, Howl, Surge
Clockwork Gnome: Railgun, Repair, Rocket
Darkmoon Zepp: Missle, Decoy, Bombing Run

First Round, Chrominius - Howl, Bite and then Surge knocked him down to about 300 health.
Used the gnome with Railgun to finish him off.

Commento di 974547

Thanks for the toxin tip Arick :) It worked like a charm. I use Shrine fly (Glowing Toxin and Confusing Sting), Darkmoon tonk (Ion Cannon and charge) and Kun Laï runt (Frost Shock, deep freeze and trash). First try and Gorespine was dead ^^ report

This worked wonders for me. Although I used missile instead of charge. TY XenandGabrielle!

Commento di Aliandrin

Hardest of the Beast of Fable. (Now, just saying this DOES in fact do some good; people reading it in despair can now heave a sigh of relief, "Oh, good, the rest are easier!")

If you're not into Steel-types, no one has said this yet, so...

Chrominius.

Howl. Bite. Surge of Power.

Gorespine is now half dead. Happy face.

Commento di Zwizzer

Simple fight with any Fox and a Clockwork gnome both lvl 23+.

Start with Gnome and use Launch rocket to prepare it.

Switch to the Fox and use Dazzling Dance for speed and Howl right after that.

Your fox will probably die so in with your Gnome and finish the Launch Rocket.

He should now be on 400-500 hp simple finish him with 1 or 2x Metal Fist

Commento di bratmonkey

summit kid - put him to sleep with soothe, if you can manage to do that before he casts his spikey shield, you've won. if he puts up his shield before he's asleep, simply exit combat and start it up again.

did you put him to sleep? is his shield still down? good. now destroy him.
cast stampede to get the armor debuff.
he kills your summit kid, and now you switch to any mechanical pet with a high hit rating.
I use clockwork gnome.
metal fist x2. gorespine dead.

Commento di 1090474

1): Alpine Foxling Kit
1-2 bite, leap, howl
Leap before howl to make sure the fox die right after howl.

2): anything with ion cannon
I used Menagerie Custodian
Shock and than Ion cannon

With the howl debuff ion cannon hits very hard and should kill gorespine

Commento di 1109415

I can confirm this method. Used it today and easily killed him without using a third pet. Fox was level 23 and gnome was 24:

Commento di MsGrimReaper

I used Alpine Foxling Kit, Menagerie Custodian, and Effervescent Glowfly. ( Any flying should work )

I started with Fox: Used Dazzling, then howl. ( Don't use a third attack )

Switched to Custodian: Used Shock and Awe, then Ion Cannon. ( this will kill him )

Switched back to fox: Used Howl ( this will kill him )

By this time Gorespine should be around 300ish health. I finished him off by using Slicing Wind.

Used this combination 3 times now, always a one shot. Hope this helps.

5.4 Two Pets

The Pandaren Water Spirit & Chrominius combo works it's wonders here too. I'm pretty confident blizzard will nerf this combo soon. but for now;

Water Spirit: Geyser -> Whirlpool
Chrominius: Howl -> Surge of Power

Commento di jadrianz

I used the follwing and beat him in 1:23..
lvl 23 (unc)shrine fly Slicing wind, Cocoon Strike, Glowing Sting
lvl 23 (rare)Sifang Otter Bite, Screech, surge
lvl 23 (unc)summit kid Hoof, come back, head butt

I opened with Shrine fly using glowing sting, then slicing wind then cocoon strike and fly died at 4th round due to the 5 round bleed from Gorespine. Switched to Sifang and struck with screech then 2 rounds of bite which it then died. Switched to Summit kid and opened with head butt then come back at which time Gorespine died.

update:
tried with same team a 2nd time using same strategy.. this time RNG won it for Gorespine with less than 400 health left to him.

Commento di 650159

Unborn Valk, Menagerie Custodian, w/e else.

Start with Valk even though she's weak to this guy. Cast doom, and then just shock the target until you die and get reborn from your undead passive. Then cast unholy ascension.

Bring out the custodian, and go to town. I used shock, and awe, and zap, and then once he was in range the ion cannon. Didn't even need the 3rd pet.

Commento di holdwine

I used the same team I use against L'il Timmy Newcomer on the Timeless Isle: Darkmoon Zep, Darkmoon Tonk, and Menagerie Custodian. The first two are usually able to take him out. The Zep can block two shots, use it's Bombing Run ability, then Missile until either it dies or gets to use Bombing Run again.

The Tonk should use Shock and Awe once for the chance to stun, then Missile until he's in range of Ion Cannon. There are other mechanicals with these same abilities, save for the Zep's Decoy. Loading a regular mechanical in front, with two Ion Cannon equipped mechs in the two rear slots, should be more than enough to take him down.

Commento di elizaday418

i HATE this guy. but i found a combo that works every time.

all level 25, all rare.

Chrominius - 2, 1, 2
Clockwork Gnome - 1, 2, 2
Anubisath Idol - 2, 2, 2

open with howl on chrominius. blast with surge of power. get thyself killed.

switch to gnome. build your rocket. launch it. die. respawn. hit him with metal fist. die again.

anubisath idol is up. demolish. one hit should do it. if not, demolish again.

profit.

EDIT: this strategy also works for Kafi, the mountain goat in Kun-Lai Summit, and Greyhoof in Valley of Four Winds

Commento di crmccar

I was able to down this guy using 2 pets - Unborn Val'kyr and Clockwork Gnome. Val'kyr goes first, nukes him once and then casts Curse of Doom and Sacrifice. The 25% damage buff from Unholy Ascension sends Curse of Doom and Clockwork Gnome's Launch Rocket damage through roof.

Commento di odinwalder

1- Shrine Fly for glowing toxin, confusing sting
2- fox Kit for dzzling dance, howl
3- Landros lil XT spam Zap - (you'll likely die before bombling can go off. just use zap)

Commento di 1055395

I used a rare quality Cogblade Raptor and a Darkmoon Zepplin to almost kill him. My Gilnean Raven finished him off with call darkness + nocturnal strike.

Commento di 1204499

Tranquil Mechanical Yeti and Kun-Lai Runt will handle this guy with ease.

Use Mechanical Fist, Call Lightning, and Ion Cannon on your Yeti. Start the battle with Call Lightning and then use Mechanical Fist while Gorespine beats on you.

When your Yeti's life get's low, use the Ion Cannon. It will leave Gorespine with almost no life left. He's going to kill your Yeti at this point, no big deal.

Now swap in Kun-Lai Runt with Thrash, Frost Shock, and Deep Freeze. Use Frost Shock first, follow it up with Deep Freeze, and then back to Frost Shock. If Gorespine is still alive, use either one more Frost Shock or a Thrash to finish him off.

Commento di plethorex

One of the easiest Beasts of Fable:

Unborn Valkyr - Curse of Doom, Shadow Slash until dead (and then resurrected for 1 round) Unholy Ascension
Menagerie Custodian - Shock and Awe, Ion Cannon.

Profit.

Commento di 1204668

Thanks for the tips - I took out this guy using:

1. Effervescent Glowfly as suggested using (Primarily used Glowing Toxin, followed by Confusing Sting, and Scratch)
2. Luyu Moth (Rare) (Using in order: Cocoon, Moth Dust and Slicing Wind repeating after cool down.
3. Silky Moth (Rare) (Using in order: Cocoon, Moth Dust and Slicing Wind repeating after cool down.

Cant stress enough the impact Glowfly has in this fight and is easy to acquire in Vale of Eternal Blossom and that my moth dust hit 100% in the fight that beat him. If it doesn't hit every time, you will be pushing to beat him

Alpine Foxling: Dazzling Dance > Howl

Sun Reaver Sentry, Clockwork Gnome and Anubisath Idol.

Gnome in Use Launch Rocket, Launch Rocket(2nd Use) Then Metal Fist. You die here.

Anubisath idol use Sandstorm or metal fist if u wanna take the chance. Gorespine dies this turn anyway!

Good luck :)

Commento di Frogspoison

As of 5.4.7, Gorespine's Spiked Skin ability has been buffed massively. Now absorbs 134 damage per hit, and deals 100 damage per hit, up from the 70ish range it was previously. Continues to scale with his beast family passive.

Absolutely TROUNCHED my normal team against him, which relies on multi-strike moves. Had to improvise with multiple heavy hitters.

These guides don't usually lead me astray, but this one did. I tried to use the Effervescent Glowfly along with two mechanical pets like 10 times with no luck. Then I went in there and soloed it with my Anubisath Idol. So if the guides above don't work for you, try the Anubisath Idol :)

Commento di reilyn

Beasts of Fable

The most effective team I've found so far for all of the beasts is Unborn Val'kyr, Chrominius and a backup of your choice. You should finish the fight within about 5-7 rounds. However, try to pick a good backup for each beast in case RNG is not on your side and you need a couple of extra attacks.

Start with your Unborn Val'kyr and cast Curse of Doom. Follow up with Shadow Slash and then Unholy Ascension.
* You may be able to do an extra Shadow Slash but do NOT do more than 4 rounds (Curse of Doom, Shadow Slash (x2), Unholy Ascension). If you are killed the round that you do Unholy Ascension and you have an extra cast use Shadow Slash. Don't swap your pet out manually as you will lose a turn.

Swap in Chrominius once Unborn Val'kyr is dead. Start off with Howl. Next use Surge of Power. Curse of Doom will hit with both Howl and Unholy Ascension up (either after Howl or Surge of Power; doesn't matter). This should kill him, but if not, when Chrominius dies swap in your backup and finish him up. If Chrominius doesn't die after recharging, Bite until either you or the beast is dead before you switch.

Special note about Ti'un the Wanderer: You will need your backup pet most of the time due to the mitigated damage from Shell Shield. Gilnean Raven is a good choice of backup but any will work; you shouldn't need more than 1-2 extra hits anyway.

** Edited to rephrase for all beasts. **

What actually works as of March of 2014 is this:

1) Unborn Val'kyr (25-rare)
2) Kun-Lai Runt (25-rare)
3) Pocket Reaver (25-rare)

Step-by-Step:

Start fight with Curse of Doom, then Unholy Ascension. You will die at this moment whether or not you use Unholy Ascension.

Kun-Lai Runt, Mangle then Thrash. Your pet will die on the second round.

Pocket Reaver: Supercharge, then Metal Fist x2. You win after dying once.

Commento di prinsallan

In-Depth for this battle:
Gorespine (Since patch 5.4.X, one of the toughest if you get a bad start):
Nether Faerie Dragon, Robo-Chick (Wind Up), Darkmoon Tonk (Missile, then Ion Cannon before dead).

Key here is to Arcane Blast 1-2 timse first, then Life Exchange him down to below 1000 hp. If that succeeds, just use the Robo-Chicks Wind-Up over 2 turns and Darkmoon Tonks Missile and Ion Cannon the round before your Tonk dies for the first time for the win.

World of Warcraft, Pandaria Pet Battle Guide.

My fastguide is the notes I have made for myself to get through the dailys in Pandaria a little quicker. The order they follow is the most effecient way to get to all 22 if you look at the world map, starting from the Shrine of Two Moons.
With this guide you should get some nice Pet Battling stuff and make a
few hundred gold and 500 timeless coins on the Pandaria dailys every day.
Some days you get a pet worth (Auction house) appx 500-1500g in addition
to the usual stuff.

This should be all you need to conquer the dailys.
Good luck and happy pet-battling!

Commento di Mormolyce

->Call Lightning (swap)
->Howl (swap)
->Ion Cannon
->Dead

Ion Cannon is from a Mechanical Yeti, Menagerie Custodian or Darkmoon Tonk. Mechanical Yetis are great since they also have Call Lightning. Howl is on several pets (notably foxes), however any double damage debuff that lasts at least 2 rounds will do.

Same strat works for Greyhoof as well.

Commento di 973430

Easiest strat:

Use Nether Faerie Dragon (or any pet with Life Exchange) and Chrominius. Let him get 2 hits in on the Dragon then Life Exchange - that's about half his hp gone. Try to get another hit in but you will probably die here; so out come Chromi. Howl and Surge = the other 50% of his hp.

Commento di 973430

MELT FACE STRAT!

If, like me, you died quite a lot on this guy you may have go all vindictive and gone off to level up some specific pets. This is the method to melt him and leave a Gorespine shaped stain on the world:

Sunreaver Micro-Sentry: Call Lightening (adding mech damage to every attack which he's weak against)
Alpine Foxling Kit (no need to level, just get a blue one): Dazzling Dance then Howl
Menagerie Custodian: Shock and Awe (sometimes kills him) then Ion Cannon which, if he's still alive, hits him so hard it kills his close family and friends and their neighbours dog.

Commento di 1244390

Finally found one that consistently works..... also works on Kafi at Kun-Lai.. & Greyhoof at Valley of Et. Blos.

1... Skywhisp Moth (Call Lightning) ... swap
2... Chrominius (howl).... swap
3...Meneagerie Custodian.... (Ion Canon).....

= dead bad guys....

Commento di 1148641

I only needed 2 mechanical pets to take down Gorespine:

1. Mechanical Pandaren Dragonling: I started with Bombing Run, then hit him with Breath until I died. Upon rebirth, I hit him with Explode for major damage.

2. Personal World Destroyer: I used Supercharge, then Metal Fist for major damage and finished him off with Screeching Gears.

Easy kill.

Commento di sammoyke

Glow fly using Glowing Toxin, followed by Confusing Sting, and Scratch and if youre lucky you can get one more glowing toxin off before he dies. , zepplin and use the decoy first , if your lucky you can get two missiles off and a bomb ( he will die then res and that should be where you get that last missile if youre lucky but mine missed ) if you get the bomb in time after the third round a moth should survive the round easily with cocoon and moth dust . This fight was a pain with any other pet i have and I have a lot of variety of pets none of them cut the mustard for this fight except these three. I think a mechanical pet is going to be necessary unless you have another faster and harder hitting pet

Commento di 333246

Found this Pet to be a bit of a pain even using the correct counter pets.
But one tactics works very well.

pets used:
Mini Mindslayer ( or anything with life exchange) https://www.wowhead.com/mop-classic/petability=277]
Tranquil Mechanical yeti ( or anything with https://www.wowhead.com/mop-classic/petability=209])
Harbinger of Flame ( or anything with Impale https://www.wowhead.com/mop-classic/petability=800])

So i start the fight with Mindslayer and i pass the first turn.
Second turn i cast Amplyfy magic to make next 2 turns 50% more dmg
Third turn ( or 4th sometimes gorespine chnages attacks) you are going to be low hp but not dead due to magic pets passive ability, use life exchange and if you are lucky you will swap out 1k hp,
then use manasurge.
You will probably die before the 2nd burst of mana surge but Gorepsine will be on 800hp approx.

swap in the Yeti and use Ion Cannon straigth away, it does extra damage agaisnt beast pets.Then Metal fist but you usualy die before you can actually land this.

Bring in Harbinger,at this stage Gorepsine will be below 25% of his max hp.Impale does double the damage on pets below 25% health. This should be enough to kill Gorepsine off without Harbinger taking damage if not hes goign to be 1 hit away from dying.

Commento di Osas

I just found the easiest way to kill this one. Just use 2 or 3 Chrominius.

You need two spells to kill it. First cast Howl, then Surge of power. While he recharges, he will die. Then, bring in the 2nd Chrominius, cast Howl, then Surge of Power, BOOM, Gorespine is dead.

Commento di flugerdebla

Since the addition of Elite and the buff to Gorespine's Spiked Skin this guy has been the most troublesome elite pet to kill for Beasts of Fable, here is how I've done it.
It requires some serious hard hitting pets along with buffing damage output.
Sadly it requires having completed Pandaren Spirit Tamer for the pet.

I used the following pets:

Alpine Foxling (level 23, uncommon) with Bite, Howl and Dazzling Dance.

Pandaren Earth Spirit (level 25, rare) with Stone Rush, Rupture and Mudslide.

Core Hound Pup (level 25, rare) with Howl and Burn (you won't use any other ability).

Start off using Alpine Foxling and use Dazzling Dance, then use Bite if you can survive another round, otherwise use Howl immediately.

Next off send in Pandaren Earth Spirit and use Stone Rush, followed by Rupture and then Mudslide, if you are still alive after this, use Stone Rush again.

If necessary, send out your Core Hound Pup and use Howl, then finish Gorespine off with Burn.

Hope this helps!

Commento di Tarnish

After trying every old and new combo of pets on this bleeping Porcupine, I stumbled across the unusual combination of Unborn Val'kyr, Lil Ragnaros, and a Skywisp moth. With a little luck, you too can beat Gorespine!

Unborn Val'kyr plays curse of doom first, then Haunts him. Lil Rag comes out and lays the fire trap then drops into Sons of Flame, which, lucky for me, he wasn't shielded this time. As soon as Rag emerges from the ground, lay a 2nd firetrap(if the first one's gone), switch to the moth and cast the sleeping powder then cocoon the next move. By this time, doom and the firetrap have gone off and a final hit from the moth finished him off.

I got lucky. This is definitely a fight where you have to analyze your pets abilities and pay close attention to what their doing. And still, you'll probably end up trying it half a dozen times too.

Good luck!

Commento di Kaigami

After failing to beat him a few times upon myself just reaching 25 a few hours ago, i went with this team, and beat him in 4 rounds, it involves some luck (50% hit chance), but is easy and fast to repeat if you have a bandage or two:

Round 1) Alpine Foxling (Rare 25). Cast Dazzling Dance

Round 2) Cast Howl.

Round 3) Cast Bite.

At this point your foxling will die, summon your Anubisath Idol (Rare 25)

Round 4) Cross fingers and hit Demolish. If it hits, he dies.

Commento di 238574

I use this method for Gorespine and Kafi.

Wild Jade Hatchling - Call Lightning
Alpine Foxling - Howl
Menagerie Custodian - Ion Cannon

Commento di 1235369

Easiest method ever! Win in 4 rounds every time.

Team:
Pet with Illuminate

2x Pet with Explode (rare, level 25)

Blackfuse Bombling H/H
Sunlight Health = 2709, Explode = 1083
Netherspace Abyssal H/H, Minfernal H/H
Sunlight Health = 2587, Explode = 1034
Pet Bombling
Sunlight Health = 2442, Explode = 976
Darkmoon Zeppelin
Sunlight Health = 2319, Explode = 927
Mechanical Pandaren Dragonling
Sunlight Health = 2100, Explode = 840

(These calculations may be very slightly off, I'm not sure how the game handles rounding)

Strategy:
Start with Illuminate pet, use Illuminate. (expect Illuminate to do ~200 damage)
Swap to first Explode pet, use Explode.
Bring in second Explode pet, use Explode.
Victory

This strategy works out because Explode seems to ignore all damage modifiers. All you have to do is choose two explode pets where the sum of their Explode damage is greater than Gorespine's health -200.

This strategy also works perfectly against Greyhoof, Ti'un and Skitterer. These and Gorespine do not have the ability nor the time to kill any of your pets.

My team:
Festival Lantern
Minfernal H/H x2

Very easy fight with maximum 4 steps:

1 step: Arctic Fox Kit uses Dazzling Dance
2 step: Arctic Fox Kit uses Howl
3 step: Menagerie Custodian uses Ion Cannon. Critical Ion Cannon deals more than 2000 damage and ends this fight.
4 step: If Ion Cannon wasn't critical - Menagerie Custodian uses Shock and Awe and ends this fight. :-)

great to see how "easy" these legendary fights are IF you have the right goddamn pets. for those of us that don't, how the hell do we beat them? and don't you dare say well go out and get them and/or level them up because not all of us can do that we are stuck with whatever we happen to get while doing the normal quests!

Commento di Dfcd14

I was able to kill him very successfully by using a pet with Call Lightning, Howl and Ion Cannon. I specifically used Wild Jade Hatchling, Core Hound Pup, and Darkmoon Tonk. With the damage buff from the Lightning and Howl, Ion Cannon was able to one shot Gorespine with his Spiked Skin up.

none of the above worked for me (because i don't have the most useful pets and i wanted to finish this quest right away), so i thought i would just share the group i used in case anyone has the same issue.

1. Arctic Fox Kit which could be subbed for alpine foxling/kit/fox kit; level 25 rare. used dazzling dance, then howl, then bite, then died.

2. Elementium Geode (can be subbed for crimson geode); level 25 rare. went right in with feedback as there was still a charge of howl left, then elementium bolt, then amplify magic > feedback until the geode died.

3. Firefly (can be subbed for effervescent glowfly, mei li sparkler or shrine fly); level 25 rare. kept glowing toxin up, used cocoon strike on cd and scratch otherwise.

thanks to the previous commenters for giving me some ideas!

My experience:

** Died twice and then I did a different selection as follows to finish him really fast :)

1. lvl 25 HP 1546 Shrine Fly: used the following in the same order Glowing Toxin > Confusing Sting > Again Glowing Toxin to make sure that I still have 4 stack on him before my pet dies . I think I have scratched him once so yes use Scratch if your pet didn't die.

2. lvl 25 HP 1465 Alpine Foxling : used the following as the others mentioned in their comments earlier, Dazzling Dance as this will increase your team speed by 25% for 9 rounds and you do really need speed in this fight. > Howl > Bite until the Foxling dies.

3. Another Alpine Foxling of the same lvl to finish him, I used Bite twice and he was down with a nice crit of 630HP at once.

Hope this helps. It worked for me with no problem. :)

1. Unborn Val'kyr: Curse of Doom => Unholy Ascension
2. Effervescent Glowfly: Confusing Sting => Glowing Toxin
3. Anubisath Idol: Rupture (hope for the stun) => Demolish

I like how bliz lets this pet attack six times before u even get to play, makes losing come so much faster.

My team:
Cockroach (x, 2, 2)
anything that can buy you the 15 rounds for Apocalypse

Cast Apocalypse, swap out your cockroach before it get's killed and try to survive the 15 rounds.
I used Nordrassil Wisp (Flash, Soul Ward), which tanked quite a lot of rounds and Emerald-Proto-Welp which died pretty quickly because I underestimated the damage and used Emerald Dream too late. I think another pet with blind/dodge abilities instead makes it even safer.

Killed him on my first attempt with 2 pets:

Rare 25 Unborn Val'kyr (2,2,1)
Uncommon 25 Alpine Foxling (1,2,2)
Didn't make use of third pet

Shadow Shock, Curse of Doom, here dies, cast Haunt on resurrect.
Dazzling Dance, Howl, Bite, bite.

That was all for me. Didn't seem to have any luck involved.
