worgen pup guide

[smoothie]

Did several searches but i couldn't find this guide so here goes:

First off get a drink and some snacks because its gonna be a long read 6):


Here's how I did this quest with my lv70 lock and shaman

1: Make sure you have a stack of lesser invisibility potions

2: Being 70 is easy but it can be done at 65 and as a stealth class I think even around 57ish, its a case of agro avoiding.

This guide should be usable by everyone.
There are no pre-requisites in the way of other quests, keys, equipment or talents you need to have before hand, except for the minimum level of 55 in order to get the quests from Kibler

Well, first off, where do you get the quest, and where do you go to do it?

Well, the quest is given by Kibler (65, 22), a Goblin in a cave in Burning Steppes
The quest is called: Kibler's Exotic Pets Kibler's Exotic Pets - Quest - World of Warcraft

The quest takes place in Blackrock Spire, an instance inside Blackrock Mountain, which straddles the border between Burning Steppes and Searing Gorge. It is possible to take a shorter, easier route going via UBRS and dropping down, however if you've managed to quest the UBRS key then it's highly unlikely you'll need this guide

If you die and depending on your level and gear you might), you appear at the Graveyard at Thorium Point in Searing Gorge. It's a simple trip to the South West of the zone to get back.

Once inside Blackrock Mountain, there are no mobs until you get close to the instance entrance, so it's safe to move around a bit. There are two instances inside the Mountain, BRS and BRD (Blackrock Depths).

If you travel around the ring in Blackrock Mountain, you will find a meeting stone for Blackrock Spire, and a tunnel leading to it. DO NOT GO IN HERE! It leads past lots of Orcs, (and while it's possible, even easy, to Stealth past them, there's no need, as there's a cunning shortcut you can take!)

If you go to the northern (and highest) point on the ring inside Blackrock Mountain, there's a chain leading down to the floating island in the middle, and a rock ramp on the west side of it allowing you to climb onto it. Go up onto the chain, and then go left and up the chain, and drop off the end onto a shelf. It's very dark at this point, so you might need to turn your gamma or brightness up. Follow the shelf round to the right and up, and you'll see a balcony ahead of you. There's a gap just before the balcony, so you need to jump the last few feet. Once on the balcony, look into the room and you'll see the instance entrance to BRS. There's also a door to the right, don't go through there as there are Elite Orcs.

For those rogue’s and druids out here:

This would be a good time to cover the basics of Stealth.
Stealth in Wow is quite different to Invisibility in other games such as EQ, in that it's not 'Stealth up and nothing will see you', but an agro-range reducer. Get close enough to something and it WILL see you and attack. There are also mobs with Detect Stealth, who see you at an even wider radius.

How close you can get to a mob without being seen is determined by how much higher or lower level than you the mob is. For mobs lower than you your agro radius is very small, about the same size you are in fact, so unless you walk right into the mob you're usually ok. However, the higher above you the mob is, the further away it'll spot you from.

As if that wasn't enough, there are actually two agro ranges when Stealthed... the 'I seeeeee youuuuu!' one mentioned above, when the mob just comes along and splats you, and the 'Did you hear something?' one, where you attract the mob's attention, but don't actually agro it yet... yet being the operative word here! 8-)

If you get close enough to trigger the 'Did you hear something?' reaction, the mob will turn to face you (and if it's a roamer, stop walking and stare at you). While this is very scary when it happens, as long as you don't move the mob will eventually shrug it off as the wind or something, and turn back to what it's doing, allowing you to carry on.

REMEMBER A LOT DEPENDS ON YOUR LVL AND IF U CAN USE STEALTH OR NOT! (If u cant a few invisibility potion can help a lot)

Zone into BRS, and you're at the bottom of a ramp. This is a safe spot, so once you're in you can Stealth up quite safely.

Head up the ramp, and there's a room with various Orcs around the edges. They won't react to you at all as long as you stay in the centre of the room, however the one at the end will wander from side to side as it gets chunks of the roast pig and goes back to the table to eat it, so you have to be careful of that one. Also, there's a patrol of two that circle the area and cut across the end of this room, again mind them.

Across the room there are ramps leading up at both side, and a big ramp down across the centre. You want to head down the ramp, hugging the right-hand wall. There are two doorways in that wall; you want to take the second one. You will get *very* close to an Orc as you go, but it doesn't react, so hug the wall and you'll be fine.

Once through the doorway, you're in a short passage that leads to quite and open area. Two Orcs patrol into this passage, and they both react, so be very careful here.

You want to wait 'til the patrol leaves, and then move down the passage and a little to the right. At this point, wait for the patrol to come back, and when they go past you up the passage you just came from, head off down the ramp and through the doorway on your left. This saves you having to hide from the patrol in the tunnel, which is possible but riskier.

Once into the passage, follow it through and you come out in a large chamber. At this point, turn sharp right and move away from the door so the patrol doesn’t spot you when they come back.

Although you'll get to play with those Ogres later, for now you can safely ignore them, they're actually on the other side of a chasm. You, however, are going into that chasm! It's a handy shortcut that saves a lot of work. Move forward until you're on the wall, and you'll see two rock platforms below you.

Jump down onto the first, walk to the end, and down onto the second. You then need to head down the second to the left-hand side corner. Looking down, you'll see a lava river, a metal edging, and a stone path. You want to jump off and land on the metal edging.

Ok, so far it's all been easy, now's when it gets tough...

If you turn to look down the corridor, you'll see it is *packed* with Orcs, with only a very small leeway in between. To make this even harder, there is a single-Orc patrol that comes down it, and a Roamer half way down who wanders from side to side and stands in the middle.

From this point on, you need to have a very steady hand, be very patient, and most importantly of all be in third-person view. Personally I like to play in first-person, however this section is quite simply not possible that way, and you have to be able to see all around you.

Timing is important here. The first thing you have to do is wait for the Patrol to come down the corridor towards you. It might stop and stare at you, however as long as you're standing on the metal edging facing down the centre of the hallway you'll be out of attack range, so just be patient and let it wander off again.

Now, once it's gone it's time to set off. If you're lucky, the Roamer will have wandered onto the right hand side and will be easier to pass; however it doesn't stay there long, and is your biggest obstacle for this section.

With the Patrol past you, start off down the centre of the corridor, slowly. Remember the 'Did you hear something?' reaction; well you're going to see a lot of it now. Every time a mob looks your way, stop and don't move again until it turns away. You have some time until the Patrol comes back, so you can afford to be careful, however don't over do it

Having made it past the first lot, the corridor continues round to the left. Although the Orcs are more spread out here, they still react and you have to still be careful.

You're heading to the far wall, and ultimately towards the group containing the sitting mob you can see top centre of the last picture.

This part is the bit that requires the most patience, as you have *barely* enough room to squeeze through these mobs, and most of them react. You need to cross to the left hand half of the passage, and squeeze diagonally through the mobs as show in the next picture. The mob with his back to you doesn't react, however the other four all do, so you have to take this literally a step at a time. When you're certain that none of the mobs are looking at you, take one step forward and stop, then wait until you're certain you're clear again and take one more step, then stop again. Keep doing this until you get onto the ramp, at which point you're clear of the Orcs.

Congratulations, you are now past all the Orcs... now it's time for Spiders!
U have 2 options here the careful one or the level 70 i don’t care one.

The later is just kill all of them :devillaugh:

The first:

To get past these, you need to hug the left-hand wall up to just below a couple of boulders, as show here, and then wait.

There are three spiders you need to keep your eye on here, the little one to the right of the boulder, the little one behind the boulder, and the big one just past them. Eventually all three of them will wander away from the left hand wall, at which point you head up. You need to watch yourself here, there's an overhang you can see in the previous picture that you can get stuck under.

Once past those three spiders, carry on up into the top left corner. Turn right, and follow the wall past Mother Smolderweb. Keep going all the way to the far side.

Once into the far corner, you need to sneak back towards Mother Smolderweb, and wait between her and the rock to her left, just before the metal girders. You need to cross those girders, but there's a Roaming spider on them, so you have to time it. He will eventually come down towards Mother Smolderweb, and then walk back up again.

Once the Roamer heads away, get onto the girder and follow him up a little. He will go up the left prong and then back and up the right prong. When he's onto the right prong, go straight up to the top

At the far end, you now have the part that requires the most luck. There are lots of spiders blocking a very narrow path, and they move around a lot. Just round the corner on the right are several more. You need to wait until all the spiders are away from the right-hand wall, then cross everything and head past them, hugging the wall all the way. The spiders tend to make little dashes back to the wall now and then, if they do there's nothing you can do except die and start again.

If, you make it past the spiders, you need to squeeze up between some rocks

And out through the low doorway on the far side

You now find yourself on a ramp leading up. Remember those Ogres pictured earlier, well they're all at the top of that ramp. Also, one of them roams down the ramp now and then.

You need to wait until he's roamed down and gone back up again, and then head up the ramp. At the top, you need to turn left. You can just squeeze past the Ogres on the edge of the ramp past them, and into the next corridor. There's a scarab half way down this corridor, don't tread on him!

You need to head through the doorway at the far end, however a Patrol wanders to there, so you have to first wait until the patrol arrives, waits for a bit, and then leaves. Once it leaves head up through the doorway (still avoiding stepping on the Scarab)

Once through the doorway, you need to head up the ramp and round to the right. The Patrol goes left, so you're clear of them; however there are Orcs down to the right so go carefully.

Having gone right, you need to move over and hug the left hand wall.

Move to the end of the corridor (being careful to watch the Orcs at the end for reactions, they will if you get too close), and the room on your left contains the Worg Pups that you're after, as well as a big named Worg (Halycon).

If you're a Rogue, all you need to do now is target a pup and click the cage, your Stealth won't break until you've captured it, and a quick Vanish afterwards should save you. If you're a something else, however, you have rather a trickier problem...

The Cage takes 2.5 seconds to cast, but luckily it doesn't get interrupted by being hit, so your only option is to get yourself a good line of sight, take a deep breath, and click. At 70 the mobs won't kill you until after you've caught one so then just go with your class.

You can now Hearthstone out (or carry on to do the Smolderweb Hatchling quest, ill guide u through soon…), however if u did die and at the Graveyard in Searing Gorge. There's no point getting a spirit res as you need to go through Blackrock Mountain to get to Kibler for the hand in anyway, so you might as well pop into BRS and res normally on the way through, and then sneak back out past the guard mobs. Once clear of them all it's off to Kibler for the final hand in.

Ill add pictures if people want them but ill have to do the run all over again so maybe on my paladin when he dinges

Waiting for your pictures? just go here for the full guide, you most likely copy paste and made some changes here and there.

Guide to using Stealth to solo Kibler's Exotic Pets

Its the guide from a comment on the page of an item you linked in your post!!!

[ChocoboX]

Anyone with half a brain could solo LBRS, whether it's taking out everything or avoiding as much as possible. Healers might have it rough but if they respec DPS it's easy.

At least you're trying to contribute, but alas it is epic fail =(

[AngshumanSSJV]

Thanks +Rep for writing so much

[bakabaka]

This guide is for a WORG pup, not a worgen pup. Worg = big nasty wolf, Worgen = werewolf men controlled by Argul. I wish we could have lil' worgen following us around.

[Aradroth]

Its not like this is even hard, why post it?

Wall...of...text... O.o

[Frostheart]
