Shadow meld for Elf Hunter PetsFollow

I am a Night Elf hunter. Can anyone please tell me where to get the quest that I can do to get Shadow Meld for my pet as well.

Flaming people for asking questions that you think are silly is one thing. Being a prick and feeding them false information that could result in them wasting a ton of time (even if only time to do some research and find out you were being a prick) is uncalled for. There is a growing trend I see that goes beyond harshly correcting people for violating subjective posting conventions in the Hunter forum and just being malicious bastards. Smarten up.

The simple answer to the OP's question is this:

There is no quest to get Shadow Meld for your pet. It's a Night Elf racial and that is all. People wanting to have a pet that can stealth will get a cat and teach it Prowl (if it doesn't come with it when you tame it). That way, you can set your pet on Prowl, Shadow Meld your Hunter, and both you and your pet will be stealthed. That is the only option.

I think you might have overlooked the point. Had it been a simple flame, a "go read the ******* sticky," a "goddamit you noobs **** me off,"...anything like that...it would have been par for the course. Not something I would necessarily support in this case, but not in any way uncommon.

Lately, however, it hasn't been enough to harshly correct people. If you read Skribs' post in this thread from the perspective of a newcomer, it's actually quite plausible, and that's just pointlessly cruel and malicious. It's one thing to be harsh...it's another thing to do something that could wind up with someone wasting an hour or two out of their day with only a repair bill to show for it. Nobody granted Skribs, you, me, or anyone else entitlement to punish people for asking questions we don't approve of. They've given us entitlement to voice our opinions more or less as we see fit, but that's where it ends.

In fact, if the OP was under the impression that there was a quest that allowed Night Elves the ability to teach their pets Shadow Meld, they might well have already invested half an hour searching through quests trying to find it before they came here and asked. This was probably one of the more unique questions I've read on this board in a very long time. But instead of, "Pets can't learn Shadow Meld...go to Petopia and read about cats", they get, "heheheh I'm an insecure ******* and I feel better about myself when I can ruin a couple of hours out of someone's day."

Defending that kind of thing is just as bad as doing it. If flaming folks is something you like to do (I do it on occasion myself), that's a part of teh intarwebz and people will hopefully develop a thick enough skin to deal with it. Pointless malice that can ruin someone's experience in the game, however, is totally bloody unacceptable.

Well FWIW I thought it was funny. Golf clap to skribs :-)

What's it like way up there on that horse?

if you are a NightElf and you have a cat with Prowl, use this macro:
# show shadowmeld
#showtooltip shadowmeld
/cast [nocombat, nostealth] Aspect of the Beast
/stopcasting
/cast [nocombat] Shadowmeld
/cast Prowl
/cast [stealth] Aspect of the Hawk

I actually agree with the flamer. Who's to say what's right? If he felt it was needed, so be it. I can't say that after hearing the same thing over and over I would'nt be just as grumpy about it. Although, I'd probably say something at the end, "and if this doesn't work, try reading the stickies in the forum and you can avoid such problems like this in the future."

Reguardless, I wouldn't find myself defending someone who can't click a link as thorough as Petopia. (which is mentioned in the stickies as we all know, quite a few times.)

I think he is agreeing with Skribs.

She

There are no women on the internet. This is a proven fact. So, that means that Raynebow is actually a 35 year old fat guy, sitting in his mothers basement. This is the Law of the Intarwebz, and the only exceptions require full frontal pictures with scanty clothing. For verification, you need to hold a poster saying "I wud sex u all lololololol".

Until then, you are 35, fat, bald, and yelling to your mom for twinkies and a new coke.

See Below. I read North's response in the training points thread and about spit my coffee out laughing. You can pretty much cut-n-paste it in almost any situation.

Its a perfect response to the ops question IMO.

And fwiw, why the hell are people so touchy anymore? Why do people have to be sooooo offended by every little friggin thing anymore? Let it go, relax and laugh a little.

WHAT!!!

He gets a PM'd Pic, and I, your "Forum Hubby" Don't even get anything!

God North I really hate you now...

This is the internet. Where men are men, women are men and 12 year old girls are FBI agents...
