Taming the Beast

Use the Taming Rod to tame an Armored Scorpid. Practice your skills, then return to Thotar at Razor Hill.

The final creature you need to tame is one you should strive to emulate; the armored scorpid. It strikes quickly and confidently; to control a force such as this is your fate as a hunter.

When you return, I will bestow you with the skills you will need to tame an animal of your choosing; this creature will be yours to command. Under your control, your pet will gain experience alongside you. I will also show you how to call it and dismiss it as you wish.

Quest data is exported from the world database of the Elwynn realm at WoW patch 1.12. Texts are shown as the world data stores them, with the game placeholders resolved to their neutral form. Spell names are resolved; their effect descriptions are not, because the world data writes them with client placeholders. Where a questgiver stands is on their NPC page, read from the server’s terrain grid. The export also carries this quest in DE, ES, FR, RU; this build publishes English only.
