I recently rolled my 4th Hunter, and went through the dilemma of what pet to get this time. A little back ground on me. I like to have those pets that no one else has, and serves a purpose besides looking cool. Looking back after the ordeal, I thought about what I had to go through for my other Hunters.
My first Hunter was a Tauren. I started her just after BC came out, and it only seemed right to have a ravager. But not just any ravager, I had to have the Death Ravager (no longer tamable). I hid in the water nearby and waited for a warrior to start his quest, killed him, tamed the ravager and hearthed before he knew what happened.
My second Hunter was Draenei. I needed something special as well. I made my way to the Barrens. Having played horde before I knew exactly where I needed to go. Echeyakee. Again I hid in the bushes and waited for an unsuspecting Hordling to come by, and BAM. I have another special pet.
Third Hunter? Nothing special yet. He's my hide from the world toon.
Now My 4th, this is my first on a PVE server. I recently came to it for my wife who recently started playing. In any case, I needed a pet that no one else had. I looked around IF and Stormwind and I came to me. I began my journey to the far north. Its was a good thing I’m a leatherworker, because my hide had been ripped from me many times. My soul still wanders the Eastern Plaugelands. I finally made it to my destination, The Ghostlands. That’s right I made my trip for the Springpaw Stalkers. I can now say that there is no one (or at least very, very few) on Kilrogg that have this pet. I can honestly say, this was the longest trip to get a pet I have taken. Thanks for letting me tell my tale.
Have fun everyone, and Happy Hunting.
