What is this strange pet you ask? It's essentially Khadgar's head. In a ball. Unfortunately, it is a non-combat pet, which is a real shame!

The flavour text for this pet: "A magical wisdom-filled head in a ball bearing Khadgar's visage, it can only answer questions with a few phrases."

The pet (Wundersamer Weisheitsball) summons Wundersamer Weisheitsball and is a quest reward from the Überall Gegner quest. The item that starts this quest, Merkwürdig summender Kristall, has a chance to be contained in the Truhe der Kirin Tor, the Emissary cache rewarded for completing 3 World Quests.

Ahahahaa!

View in 3D and go through the emotes.

This is the best thing Blizzard has ever done.

Kind of like a magic 8-ball.

I haven't had the song yet, will keep trying.

Kommentar von mcwood

Personally I love feeding him Magical Pet Biscuits and just chilling out in Dalaran while people who have no idea what he is freaks out at the giant head.

Kommentar von BjornMG

First thoughts: Richard Nixon's head in a jar from Futurama.

Khadgar's Upgraded Servant 2.0: now with more Khadgar!

Kommentar von Medapaw

The single greatest thing about his wondrous wisdomball is the fact you can play fetch with it using Apportierball

Kommentar von emeskorlov

Came across a cool little feature of the wisdomball today. I was in my class hall and Khadgar's head says something like " High Priest! I have been looking everywhere for you, I know the head in the ball... I am trying something a little bit different." He then proceeded to gave me the Die Göttin wache über Euch . What was even more interesting about it was the fact that I did not have the wisdom ball out at the time.

Kommentar von stickshift

Old-timer herbalists can bring back yesteryear and pull Khadgar's Whisker from the comfort of their own home.

Kommentar von hitmanhunt

Remember, you can't put this pet into cage. You can sell it only without learning it!

Kommentar von Gigabear

This pet is primarily a reference to the Magic 8-ball, but also seems to reference the Hologram of Dr. Lanning from I Robot which often said "My responses are limited. You must ask the right questions."

You can also use Narzissas Spiegel to transform it into yourself, which results in viewing the actual emotes when asking questions, often to hilariously mismatched results. Apexis Crystals are apparently dance worthy.

Kommentar von Ryjabo

In a future patch/update, this will probably be soulbound when you complete the quest. I accidentally learned it when I was trying to sell it and figured it didn't hurt to ask if it could be restored... here's what the GM told me.

Game Master <redacted> here. I just got your ticket about accidentally right-clicking on the Wondrous Wisdomball and wanting to have that item back so you can sell it on the auction house. I can completely understand why that would be frustrating to accidentally learn it, especially if you really wanted the gold from selling it.

I looked into this for you, however this item and the pet that you learn from it actually weren't intended to be traded at all. There is currently a bug in the game that is allowing this item to be tradeable when it's not intended to be. Since we did not intend to have this item be tradeable, we cannot undo this learning of the pet and restore the item back to you, I'm very sorry.

Kommentar von Grahran

Sadly as of patch 7.2, these are now soulbound and can no longer be placed on the Auction House. However, you maybe fortunate to find one on the AH, if posted prior to 7.2, but once the auction has expired, it will become soulbound, so hurry if you're looking for one!

I found out the hard way and now have 4 in my inventory, and paid 100k for them.

~~I just got mine and found out it doesn't fly with you, it drags along the ground. Khadgar can put his head in a ball but can't make it fly with you? Really?~~

Update: it still doesn't fly in 7.2.5, but you can use Magische Untertasse. That'll make any pet fly with you :)
Update 7.3.5: still no flying.
Update 8.0.1: still no flying.
Update 8.3: No end in sight, still no flying. Khadgar's head continues to rest on a platter Magical Saucer.
Update 9.2.5: It finally happened! It FLIES!

Kommentar von Boxofbeer

To obtain this pet you have to find Merkwürdig summender Kristall that can be dropped from Truhe der Kirin Tor.

Speak with Khadgar to pick up the quest. You have to find and slay eight dangerous infiltrators (if you ungeared) across the city.
Quest leads to one of the funniest pets - Wundersamer Weisheitsball. You can interact with it and ask the question and ball will answer. There are possible answers under the spoiler:

Knüppel Kuno can be found in the Legerdemain Lounge.
Hannis Gestadegänger stands next to the fountain. Kick casts and dodge rain.
Savash Windrufer is near the stairs to Krasus landing.
Männi Schlich can be found in Ally bank, he just casts shadowbolts, easy frag.
Legendärer Larry - enter Underbelly using entrance under the Violet Citadel, he just sits next to a wall as you entered. This one is hard, dodge ground slam.
Li-An Himmelsspiegel sits next to a building near the Horde bank. Seems, she's the hardest one. Wirbelnder Kranichtritt and Chistoß deal much damage and must be dodged / kicked. You also should kick healing spell - Heilnebel
Unschuldiger Jim can be found next to mailbox at Krasus landing. He uses vanish and open with powerful spells, so better to use any defence..
Schwester Macht can be found in The Arsenal Absolute store on the second level. Pull her to the street to make the fight easy.

Don't look for the Merkwürdig summender Kristall in your bags! I didn't get the item, was about to logoff, then noticed I had auto-accepted Merkwürdig summender Kristall. It doesn't popup a dialog, so I barely noticed it on the side by my quest objectives.

Kommentar von Nymss

"Should I log out of WoW now?"
Let me confer with my sources... no.

The great Wisdomball has spoken!

Kommentar von laeknir

Perhaps a reference to YouTube's "Taliesin and Evitel" wondrous wisdom show (WoW updates, patch notes, other silliness), where they have a Khadgar head floating around?

Kommentar von IAmEnchanted

I can confirm that using Narzissas Spiegel will transfrom the pet into a copy of you, he won't spin but will emote randomly and say the same lines.

the textbox doesn't show up if the character is female though.

Kommentar von Fallerup

this is an obvious nod to Taliesin & Evitel as this is what they use in their videos all the time.

Kommentar von sbensen

Whats the drop rate on this thing? It feels like Ashes of Alar 2.0...

Kommentar von cidershack

Holy crap, what a tedious timesink in old content even. Maybe this pet I skip.

Kommentar von Matekipanda

Still obtainable June 10 2019 (finally)

Kommentar von Kallipsa

Obtained on July 18th. Took forever. Lots of different alts and my main trying. Well over 100 attempts. Cannot Cage/Cannot Battle. Basically only used for counter/summons at this point. Still cool though. Super rare now because you cannot buy on AH. Good to know I can finally be done with these dailies since there is no need to ever get more than one. Good Luck All!

Kommentar von angeleyed

Hundreds of kills and this thing still eludes me....

Kommentar von breakdownbacon

Is this Pet still available? Where can I get this from?

Kommentar von Malvenue

So is this item a toy? I have in on my action bars but I can't see it in my toybox and I don't see an item in my inventory, either.

Kommentar von Gyllbane

It's unfortunate that this, despite being a hovering pet and highly popular/sought after because of its uniqueness, still doesn't follow your character in the air like other flying pets do. I love it, but I hardly ever use mine because the constant spawn -> drop -> spawn -> drop animation gets distracting.

Kommentar von johnnysebre

I farmed this pet because I'm a collector and I was very nostalgic about hearing the phrase "Your sound card works perfectly". I played Warcraft 2 for a long time without sound back in the day, and I remember being around 12 when I got my sound working and heard that sentence in the test voice clip and being super excited about being able to hear the game sounds.

But after I got the pet and spammed him to hear his quotes, he would never say that line! So at some point I made a small spreadsheet to count the number of times each quote was said. We know how RNG is, but here are my results that may show the probability of each quote over 500 attempts:

83 Outlook is certain. Certain death!
69 Reply...hazy... Try again?
69 Let me confer with my sources... yes.
63 Let me confer with my sources... no.
63 Nooooo... yes, actually.
45 Outlook unclear, gather 4289 more apexis crystals and ask again.
39 You will likely survive. Most likely.
37 Not likely... in this timeline.
28 Defeat is assured.
4 Your sound card works perfectly.

And if I recall correctly, the only times he said the sound card quote was at the Violet Citadel, including twice today (out of 4 recorded results) when I was right next to Warmage Silva, which is the NPC you turn in the Kirin Tor emissary quest that can award this toy.

Kommentar von franchy

I'm not exactly sure when this change went into effect, but this pet can now fly with your flying mounts. Should've been like this from the beginning if you ask me.

Kommentar von Valspali

The Strange Humming Crystal finally popped for me, although I wasn't really aiming for it as I was just using the Kirin Tor paragon runs to gain Rep for Valarjar for their mount. 34 attempts so I guess I did grind a bit, but it hardly felt that way now that we are into Shadowlands and I only go into Broken Isles occasionally.

Kommentar von Eveliarix

This is still obtainable as of of 5/11/21. It ended up taking me around 50 turn ins for it to drop.

Kommentar von Facethievery1

I am not sure if the Kara song ever played in Live, but I got the sound card line but no song was played.

Kommentar von Fildrong

From before Dragonflight I am missing only 3 pets I can get in game : 400 pvp honor (oh hell no), 1 million gold celestial calf (working on it) and this one. I have been farming it on 5 alts every time I can try for it for almost 7 years now. Not counting tries but that feels like a lot. I swear when I get this ball I'll use it to shoot at walls.

Kommentar von Arrowstorm

For those of us still farming for this pet after all these years, at least Blizzard seems to have FINALLY fixed the "Like The Wind" quests where it would randomly undershoot your movement. One step at a time, I guess. Hopefully they'll also give us Kirin Tor reputation supply chests to up our chanced for this pet even more!

Kommentar von octnoir

To anyone still farming this...oh boy.

Backstory

Coming off from WoD's 'not enough content', 'no reason to log in' and 'lengthy content drought', Blizzard pulled a full 180 and thensome with Legion where they ~~forced~~ pressured you into doing content every day. If you wanted a chance at those super rare Legendaries that could make or break your spec, then you gotta do your Emissaries. Every day. I got more Legendaries from catching Squirrels in Val'sharah than off Mythic raid bosses.

Gung ho on 'all content every day', In 7.2 they added in the Paragon Reputations with Paragon Chests. Every 10,000 Reputation you'd grab a Schatztruhe der Nachtsüchtigen like chest which had a rare mount like Wilder Traumläufer.

Those mounts were sought after and very unpopular because Blizz made them 1% drops like Unbesiegbars Zügel except it was way more tedious to get 10,000 Rep for the faction vs one raid clear. Due to sooo many complaints, Blizz said they would revisit those mounts because getting 10k Rep and 1% drop was kinda nuts. So a couple of expacs later, they buffed the mount drop rate considerably and we had Legion Timewalking to give us quick and easy access to rep tokens like Insigne der Traumweber which you can funnel to a main or with rep bonuses.

Unfortunately for us, Wundersamer Weisheitsball missed the memo and continues to be a super rare pet averaging 100s of attempts. It isn't from reputation but from completing this Emissary's 3 WQs. One time you could actually sell off the pet but that got hotfixed so the only way to get it is by completing the Emissary on each character.

Tips

Now that we've established a bit of the BS behind this pet's drop (as of Dragonflight's late 2023 10.1.7 patch):

1. A lot of these WQs particularly Like the Wind are bugged. Don't bother playing 'fair'. Takes way too much time.

2. Like the Wind can be cheesed by mounting up beforehand and keeping on your mount. If the course disappears on you, give it a sec and keep on the path.

3. Similarly Magic of Flight can be cheesed by mounting up beforehand and flying to the clickable objective.

4. World Quest List addon can help with Barrels of Fun WQ by letting you mark the barrels with markers.

5. Enigmatic isn't too bad for a quick WQ but some locations have very faint squares so change your graphics settings for it to light up.

6. I generally look at when Kirin Tor is up, when Like the Wind and Magic of Flight is up, and takes about...10ish minutes with most of the time taken up by flying across the zones. I'm not mad enough to take up 15+ minutes by playing these WQs 'fairly'.

Good luck. I'm at 300+ attempts and at the tail end of this RNG Bell Curve. There are raid mounts I've gotten faster and in less time per clear than this.
