Darkmoon Faire Pet Battles!

Darkmoon Pet Battles:

We have two Pet Battles available to us during the event, Jeremy Feasel and Christoph VonFeasel. While these can be straightforward to complete given the correct team and strategies, it’s essential to understand that recently, Blizzard was kind enough to set some limitations that you may have missed – after all, they don’t like fun!

New Limitations:

Jeremy Feasel and Christoph VonFeasel are dailies, meaning this can only be completed once per day. Previously, we could log on alts to complete them over again, making farming for the Battle Pet rewards efficient.

However, Blizzard has changed the dailies to Account-wide dailies, meaning once you’ve completed the Pet Battles on one character, you won’t be able to re-do them again on any other character on your account until the following day!

Pet Battles: Sir Galveston

/ Gra1980 / 1 Comment

Pet Battles: Sir Galveston

Pet Battles: Sir Galveston

Today, Wednesday 26th January sees the return of the Pet Battle: Sir Galveston within the E.U region. If you’re unaware, when this Pet Battle coincides with the Pet Battle week bonus (Sign of the Critter), you can level a level battle pet to level 25 in two battles.

Yes, due to this only taking 9 rounds to complete, this is more efficient than leveling pets via your Garrisons Menagerie and the pet battle: Squirt!

For my readers that live within the U.S region, Sir Galveston will be available for you from tomorrow (Thursday 27th January).

Where is Sir Galveston located?

You can locate Sir Galveston within the pet battle arena of Dalaran (Legion). Coordinates [28.24]. He will be available for one day, so be prompt if you want to level many battle pets!

Team:

We’ll need a level 25 Court Scribe [P/S] and a level 25 Surger [S/S]. I specifically opted for these breeds as they appear to return a 100% success rate!

Your leveling pet can be whatever pet you wish. As the pet doesn’t enter the fight, they won’t take any damage, which means it can be as low as level 1. This is an ideal opportunity to level those expensive battle pets.

Skills:

For this to be efficient, we’re going to need a specific set of skills, cue Liam Neesen meme! The skills that aren’t important have been highlighted with an asterisk. Add any skill here, as it won’t be used!

Court Scribe:
  • Stot One: (1) Arcane Blast
  • Slot Two: (*) Any
  • Slot Three: (2) Curse of Doom
Surger:
  • Slot One: (*) Any
  • Slot Two: (1) Stone Rush
  • Slot Three: (1) Body Slam

Strategy:

Thank you to nogulpfrog from wow-petguide, who has shared their strategy. Check out the website for other pet battle guides and strategies!

  • Move One: Arcane Blast
  • Move Two: Arcane Blast
  • Move Three: Pass!
  • Move Four: Arcane Blast
  • Move Five: Arcane Blast (Coach dies)
  • Move Six: Curse of Doom (Court Scribe dies)
  • Select Surger
  • Move Seven: Body Slam
  • Move Eight: Stone Rush
  • Move Nine: Body Slam (Greatest Foe dies)
  • Move Ten: Stone Rush (Sir Murkeston dies)

YouTube Video:

For those that would prefer a visual look at this battle played out, please check out my short video below. I chose the battle pet Naxxy to level, remember, you can opt for any pet you wish!

Sign of the Critter:

Every seven weeks, there’s a bonus event [Sign of the Critter] which gives 100% increased experience via Pet Battles. This event is fantastic when one of the power leveling Pet Battles is also active, as it means we can level Battle Pets to level 25 in two battles!

85% Leveling Buff!

If the battle pet bonus event [Sign of the Critter] isn’t active, and Sir Galveston (or any other power leveling Pet Battles are available), check out the Battle Pet Masters scattered around Azeroth and put those Pet Charms to good use.

Although nowhere near beneficial as the increased 100% experience gained from the bonus event, we can still obtain an 85% increase to battle pet experience by purchasing Pet Treats and equipping either the Safari Hat or the Darkmoon Top Hat.

Breakdown:

After completing your two fights (as outlined in the video above), you’ll find yourself a couple of levels short of level 25. By using Flawless Battle-Training Stones, you can reach level 25! Visit a Battle Pet Master for these Stones!

I recommend not purchasing the [Mystery Bag]. Although the bag is cheaper than buying the Flawless Battle-Training Stone, and you have a chance to obtain two Stones, be warned the Battle-Training Stones from within the [Mystery Bag] are Family Specific!

If you don’t have enough Pet Charms to purchase any Flawless Battle-Training Stones, do one more battle (three in total) to reach level 25!

If you cannot buy any of the above, and the bonus event isn’t live, it will take you four battles to get level 25!

Can I Stack the 85% Buffs with the 100% Bonus Event?

Yes, you can! Be warned; this method is only beneficial if you have Flawless Battle-Training Stones!

While [Sign of the Critter] is active, and using the details above regarding the 85% buff, participate in one Pet Battle with Sir Galveston (or any other power leveling Pet Battles are available) and use Flawless Battle-Training Stones to reach level 25.

I can’t stress this enough if you do not have Flawless Battle-Training Stones, stacking the 85% buffs and the 100% Bonus Event is worthless!

Power leveling Battle Pets with your Garrison Menagerie…

/ Gra1980 / 3 Comments

** THIS GUIDE HAS BEEN UPDATED – PLEASE CLICK HERE FOR UPDATED STRATEGY! **

Ever since the powers that be, nerfed power leveling Battle pets from your Garrison’s Menagerie, it’s been a very slow and painful process to level them. Thankfully Blizzard were nice enough to leave one daily for us, to boost our pets. Sadly, it’s only available once every 15 days, so make very good use of it. The daily NPC we’re looking for is Squirt.

Today 17/09/15 Squirt is here, so don’t hang around, go get as many pet battles in with this NPC before 3am strikes and it resets. The reason this NPC is so desired, is that it’s a 2 pet battle, meaning you can power level a third pet. Below is Peelyon’s setup and tactic.

Setup:
2 pet setup to use to make this easier: Fjord Worg Pup (25) abilities Bite, Howl and Dazzling Dance. Blighthawk (25) Infected Claw and Ghostly Bite. 3rd pet is any pet you wish to boost.

Tactic:
Start with Fjord Worg Pup –
Move 1 – Dazzling Dance
Move 2 – Howl
Move 3 – Bite
Move 4 – Bite
Move 5 – Bite
(Their pet will die)
Move 6 – Howl
Move 7 – Dazzling Dance
(Fjord pet will die) Select Blighthawk
Move 8 – Ghostly Bite
(They’re pet will die)
Move 9 – SWAP! to boost pet
Move 10 – SWAP! back to Bighthawk
Move 11 – Infected Claw
Move 12 – Ghostly Bite
His pet should die here!

If your pet, or Squirts pet uses an ability, which results in a miss, then we suggest forfeiting the match and restarting. The only time to ignore this, is from moves 10 and onwards or if your pet is level 9 and above. A video from Peelyon showing this tactic in full swing can be seen HERE.

I’ve always purchased battle pets cheap and flip them for huge profits, way before WoD came out, but with this daily, I can now buy pets at level 1 extremely cheap, boost them and sell them for large profit margins. I urge anyone, looking to make a low risk – high reward investment, to try this out. To sweeten this further, once battle pets are caged, you can send these to alts on low population servers for even more profit, as there will be higher demand for them. 1 silver deposit cost to post on the Auction House, again proves this to be a very low risk option with a profitable reward.

I found out about this fantastic tip by watching a stream from a fellow Brit, Peelyon on his Twitch channel. He also has a Youtube channel too! He has level a pet from level 1 to level 25 in 10 minutes, which is an amazing feat.

I don’t boast to have the largest pet collection, but with this amazing tip above, I’m working my way there. Stay tuned for further tips and as ever, share your experiences below.
