[Legion] Get iron juggernaut pet, Change appearance on Hati, New aspect and glyphs

[HunterHero]

There's coming some new and exciting things for Hunters in Legion, and some of them are already here.
This little how to is for people who don't follow hunter news or look into what niche abilities and things they can do in the coming expansion.

In Legion you're able to tame mechincal pets (passively if you're goblin or gnome), but for other races you need the [Mecha-Bond Imprint Matrix]. The item is a one-time useable item that learns you the passive. When you've learend the passive you can tame most mechanical beasts/pets in WoW, with some exceptions at the current moment. But one of the new and rare pets is the Iron Juggernaut pets recolored from the original boss. You can get it in green, grey (normal boss color), sea teal and cobalt blue. To get the juggernaut pet you need to farm Siege of Orgrimmar on atleast Normal difficulty (this can easily be solo'd even in 7.0.3 but you can't get it yet). You DO NEED a friend or someone for Galakras to shoot her down while you take the adds. Now here's how to get the pets:

1. You need to kill the Iron Juggernaut BOSS and loot Pile of Juggernaut Parts
2. Then you need Blackfuse's Power Core from Siegecrafter Blackfuse
3. Third thing you need is one of the four buckets of paint. These buckets are so ****ing small. Like half the size of a gnome so look hard! Or look up a video on the exact location.

• Bucket of Green Paint can be found in the Cleft of Shadows
• Bucket of Blue Paint can be found in the same small room where the orc you use for the Malkorok achievement is chained up.
• Bucket of Teal Blue Paint can be found behind one of the large crates in the Mantid area at the Chest Boss after Malkorok
• Bucket of Grey Paint can be found just before Garrosh in the tunnel after the Mantid bosses.

Now you'll have to wait for the next week until the instance resets so you can get the pet. If you want all four colors, then it'll take 5 weeks. First week to get all the materials, then a reset each for the parts from Iron Juggernaut and Siegecrafter Blackfuse. Those two parts will be spent each time you craft a juggernaut pet. The buckets of paint will stay in your inventory until you use them.

Now for the actual crafting and taming the pets. When you've gathered the juggernaut parts, the power core and a bucket of paint, you'll go to Siegecrafter Blackfuses platform. By right-clicking the paint bucket you want to create you'll create a Deactivated COLOR Juggernaut item. Now when you have this item, you just right click it and a neutral juggernaut pet will spawn. Only you can tame it and no one can hit it but you. I'd recommend using Aspect of the Turtle before taming, since they can hit you hard.¨

Tip: If you want, you can sell these runs to new or unknowing hunters or just-too-lazy-to-do-it-themselves hunters. They need someone to help with Galakras, so offer your help and getting them the pet for some gold

As a BEASTMASTER Hunter, you'll be able to control TWO pets in Legion. Your main pet and a secondary pet called Hati (the wolf pictured above).
You're able to change the apperance of Hati by doing a quest that you'll get from The Trueshot Lodge (Class Order Hall).
To compelte the quest you'll have to run around the Broken Isles to get some items for the quest.The quest reward is the following item:



To change the appearance you have to use the [Essence Swapper] on your main pet, and then Hati will change into the same pet.
If you change your pet out, Hati will remain the pet as the one you used the swapper on. So you'll have to use it again.

Not many hunters or people I've talked to know this, but Hunters can get a new Aspect in Legion (it's actually available in pre-patch!). You can also get a few new spells to help roleplay, just playing around and farming! Yes farming! And then there's a toy to summon a random animal!

In Sholazar Basin at the Nesingwary Base Camp there's an NPC called Mardan Thunderhoof. He sells these 4 items to learn the spells and toy that all cost 50g each. The spells you can learn are:





Fetch lets you command your pet to loot mobs. So you can use it when you're farming a lot of mobs and you don't bother running all the way to loot that one mob. Your pet loots all pets in the same area, as if you looted yourself.

Play Dead makes your pet play dead. Whether it actually works as Feign Death by losing threat I have not tried out yet. The Play Dead ability switches to a Wake Up ability after the cd has reset. This is the only way to make your pet get out of the play dead besides dismissing it.

Aspect of the Cameleon is a returning spell that used to be called Aspect of the Beast. It's the same exact spell except it's renamed for a more fitting name I'd say.

Hunters's Call does exactly what it's item description says. It summons a random animal pet by your side, and if you're a hunter it'll be a pet like your aspects. Fox, snake, warpstalker or cheetah (kitten).

The 5th hunter class book you can buy is in Dalaran. It's sold by Bryan Landers in the old Dalaran (current Dalaran in 7.0.3) and Hobart Grapplehammer in Legion. Both of these are a Engineering Supplies vendor and sell this book for 50g. The item is:



The spell is like the previous firework minor glyph hunters could get.

Thanks for the guide, I had no idea about these. Just tested the play dead, he dropped agro and the npc came after me.

That's great to hear! Atleast that it works like FD Saves some time dismissing pet and then FD'ing yourself
