How do you get a pet that attacks in World of Warcraft?

Answer 1

Combat pets are only used by Hunters, Warlocks, Death Knights, and to a lesser extent Priests and Mages.

Hunters can tame anything that is tamable their level and below. Starting in Cataclysm, when Hunters tame a pet below their level, it is automatically level to the Hunter's current level, and levels when the Hunter levels.

Warlocks have to learn the spell for a minion, this is taught at the Warlock class trainer once they reach the level appropriate for the demon. All warlocks start out at level one with an imp demon that throws fireballs. All demons are the Warlocks level, and level when the Warlock levels.

Death Knights use a ghoul as a pet. All Death Knights can access the ghoul but only for a limited time every cool-down. Unholy Death Knights have a talent to make the ghoul permanent.

Frost Mages have access to the Water Elemental. The summoning spell is given as part of the abilities of a frost mage.

Priests can access a pet called Shadowfiend. This spell becomes available at level 66, and is accessible by all priests, although being a shadow priest makes the Shadowfiend a little better.

Non-combat pets are either rewards (being online on Nov 23rd 2008: the Blizzard Baby Bear) or purchased like Siamese Kitten sold outside Stormwind. Non-combat pets can also be dropped by certain world mobs, or be given as a reward for certain quests. Some can also be bought at the Blizzard store for real money.

In Mists of Pandaria ( the new Expansion coming September 25, 2012 ) non-combat pets will be able be battled against other players non-combat pets (similar to how Pokemon works). As a part of this, you will be able to tame some critters in the world to use as non-combat pets to fight other player non-combat pets.

Answer 2

To get a pet, you have to do a certain quest as a hunter. To get this quest, you have to be a level 10 hunter and get is from the Hunter Trainer.

After you complete this quest, you get an ability called 'Tame Beast'.

You can then tame a beast after 20 seconds (when the spell is finished).

Your pet will be unhappy and disloyal after it is tamed. You have to constantly keep feeding it and keep fighting with it to train it and improve its loyalism.

Answer 3

If you are referring to "How does a Hunter tame a pet in WoW?" the answer is:

You have to be level 10, then you can go to the starting trainer and receive a quest from them to go tame several beasts. Upon completion of the quest line you will receive the ability to tame pets :D

Answer 4

As a Hunter you should have an ability called "Tame Beast" in your spellbook under the "Beast Mastery" tab. When you encounter a beast that you can tame, simply target it and cast Tame Beast.

Your character will begin channeling the spell while the creature attacks you - if you finish the cast the beast is tamed.

Note that no one must be attacking the creature to be tamed, and interference may break the channel. It is wise to use a Freezing Trap to lock the creature in place for taming as well.

Not all creatures can be tamed - for some exotic species you will need the 31st point in the Beast Master talent tree (obtainable at level 69) to get these.

Answer 5

There are two types of pets: combat pets and non-combat pets.

Non-combat pets can be bought in most major cities, found in various dungeons as random loot, and given away by Blizzard as prizes, such as buying a collector's edition upgrade.

Combat pets are trained by hunters. All the hunter has to do is click on the ability to capture a pet and hold its attention for about 15 seconds, without dying. The Freezing Trap works well for this. You can not tame an animal higher level than you. Different pets have different fighting abilities.

Answer 6

The animals in the game are:

#1 = noncombat companions which are small animals that are just with you for looks which can be found in some vendors; usually kids running around with a small pet following them, or from the auction house which can be located in big cities.

#2 = mounts which are animals/creatures that you are able to ride at level 30 and above. They improve your speed. Examples of mounts are horses, wolves, birds, gryphons, tigers, bears, etc.

#3 = Pets which are animals/creatures that only hunters, a type of player in the game, can tame. Pets include cats, wolves, birds, serpents (snake-like creatures), bears, etc.

#4 = Minions which are creatures (sometimes animals) that are "tamed" by only warlocks, another type of player in the game. Types of minions are usually demon like creatures but can have some animal-like features.'

I hope that answered your question because I'm not really sure what you're asking heh...

Answer 7

to tame wild beats you have to be a hunter and know Tame Beast which i think you learn at lvl 10. not all beasts are tameable so you should first cast Beast Lore to find out. some beast are exotic and you can only tame them if you have the last ability in the Beast Mastery spec, Beast Mastery. you can also only tame beasts that are either the same lvl or a lower lvl than you are

Answer 8

Only certain classes have regular pets that can attack. Hunters and warlocks have permanent pets that are part of their damage abilities. Mages and death knights can get permanent pets if they are speced and glyphed right. Priests and shaman can both summon very temporary pets that damage mobs and heal the owner (these do no last very long).

Answer 9

You can buy one from a vendor such as the moth lady in Exodar, Owl Lady in Darn, Cat Lady in SW, or you could go in the AH and just buy some. Or some quest reward you with pets.
