0 of 9 steps done ·

Before you hunt a rare

Make sure your current pet is stabled: you can't tame while you have one out, dismissed or dead.
Rares are often elite. Bring traps, Concussive Shot and full health, and start the tame at range.
Rares share spawn points with normal beasts and can take a long time to appear. Check the spot, then come back later rather than waiting all day.
Use Beast Lore on it before taming to check its abilities and attack speed.

Classic rares under level 30

From Classic. These may be at different levels or places in WoW: Forever, or not tameable at all: check with Beast Lore.

Lupos (wolf, around level 23, Duskwood): famous for dealing shadow damage with its attacks.
Humar the Pridelord (cat, around level 23, northern Barrens): a rare lion look.
Echeyakee (cat, around level 16, the Barrens): a white lion spawned by a Horde quest from the Crossroads area.

Found one?

Post the name, zone and level in ONN chat. Rare spawns move fast once people know.
If you run the ONN Reporter addon, beasts you see help fill in the ONN zone maps for everyone.

Tips

Rare pets aren't stronger than normal ones of the same family: they just look different, and some attack faster.
If several hunters are waiting for the same rare, be polite and take turns.
