Family Battler

Posted by Cymre on May 5, 2019

Hey, pet battlers. If you enjoyed Family Familiar, then you’re in for a treat. Well, you were if this had just gone live but this was sitting in my draft folder for a while. ;P My Karaga team was initially the strat I used to defeat her for the basic achievement but turned out to be a great one to use as a mechanical team. Always love the ones that can pull double duty achievement wise… actually three since it can also be used as a levelling strat. #winning It’s no wonder this is my most popular strategy in the playlist. Beast Mode – Defeat 15 Master Tamers on Kul Tiras or Zandalar with all Beast pets. Critters With Huge Teeth – Defeat 15 Master Tamers on Kul Tiras or Zandalar with all Critter pets. Dragons Make Everything Better – Defeat 15 Master Tamers on Kul Tiras or Zandalar with all Dragon pets. Element of Success – Defeat 15 Master Tamers on Kul Tiras or Zandalar with all Elemental pets. Fun With Flying – Defeat 15 Master Tamers on Kul Tiras or Zandalar with all Flying pets. Hobbyist Aquarist – Defeat 15 Master Tamers on Kul Tiras or Zandalar with all Aquatic pets. Human Resources – Defeat 15 Master Tamers on Kul Tiras or Zandalar with all Humanoid pets. Machine Learning – Defeat 15 Master Tamers on Kul Tiras or Zandalar with all Mechanical pets. Magician’s Secrets – Defeat 15 Master Tamers on Kul Tiras or Zandalar with all Magic pets. Not Quite Dead Yet – Defeat 15 Master Tamers on Kul Tiras or Zandalar with all Undead pets. Completing the meta rewards the Wicker Wraith. Kwint was definitely the most challenging which is why I focused on the other tamers. Michael Skarn was definitely the easiest and was pleasantly surprised by the relatively short amount of time spent on Leana Darkwind. Have you completed this one yet? What was your most or least favourite? If you’re still working on this meta, feel free to check out my playlist which includes 145 strategies. Additionally, if you would like to support my work and are a fan of the Rematch addon, you will be able to import all my rematch strings to these and other challenges. Speaking of access, if you’re looking for a reliable VPN service, I recently discovered...

Warfronts: Arathi Highlands – Pet Edition

Posted By Cymre on Jun 17, 2018 in Pet Battle

Arathi Highlands is part of the new Warfronts feature in Battle for Azeroth. Each faction will have the opportunity to take control of the zone, giving them access to a unique World Boss and a series of rare spawns and other rewards only available when their faction controls the zone. The attacking faction can contribute profession items, gold or war resources until their faction is strong enough to seize control. This is a...

Battle on Zandalar and Kul Tiras

Posted By Cymre on May 19, 2018 in Pet Battle

Pet Battle World Quests follow the Legion style of questing meaning you will always see the NPCs but you will only be able to battle the active ones that day. The most interesting thing to note is the scaling feature trialled in Legion meaning the team will match the highest level pet on your team. There are quite a few new abilities including a variation of an old one but I won’t point them out in case you want to be surprised....

Battle Pets in Battle for Azeroth

Posted By Cymre on Apr 26, 2018 in Featured, Pet Battle

Battle for Azeroth brings a ton of new and updated models like a few new butterflies and a hi-res prairie dog but I’m especially excited about another cool addition. We’re actually getting a mummy pet! Okay, so I was hoping it’d be one of the new archaeology rewards but it turns out it will be a mythic dungeon achievement. BOO! In BfA, we’ll have a new set of Pet Battle World Quests which means max-level...

Saving Uuna

Posted By Cymre on Jan 18, 2018 in Featured, Pet Battle

Uuna is a non-combat pet looted from The Many-Faced Devourer (rare summoned at the Scavenger’s Boneyard). There are a number of bones you need to collect before you can summon the rare and you can loot him once per day. Note the drop rate was recently hotfixed. In Patch 7.3.5, a backstory was added allowing you to learn more about this ghostly child and upgrade her model, ultimately preparing her for the upcoming scenario. Her...

Postmaster Challenge for Mailemental

Posted By Cymre on Dec 2, 2017 in Pet Battle

There’s a new challenge coming in patch 7.3.5, likely inspired by a recent pet forum post. The Mailemental looks like Manapoof, Breanni’s companion in the Magical Menagerie. His abilities are Package Drop, Express Delivery, Snail Mail, Junk Mail, Return to Sender and Hate Mail – mostly humanoid damage, with some critter and magic damage too. He even carries a letter in his hand. :) Start by looting the Lost Mail...

Family Fighter

Posted By Cymre on Aug 4, 2017 in Pet Battle

Get ready for a new breed of Family Familiar achievements. This time, you’ll be battling 18 corrupted legendaries, like the Tiny Terrors of Tanaan. They will be evenly split between the subzones of Argus, kind of like Netherstorm without the connecting bridges or flying ability. To make things easier, the Vindicaar – our mobile base of operations – offers an extensive network of teleportation hubs. Beam me up,...
