if he kills you he does an unique emote "Zaricotl seems much calmer now that it has eaten the remains of (player name)"

Kommentar von Lordship

The bird is soloable by a lvl 56 combat rogue. Don't be afraid of the elite status. Evasion ftw

Kommentar von Jeremypwnz

im just wondering to anyone thats a hunter...... would this be a good pet to tame? because i used beast lore on him and it said tameable. what do u guys think?

Kommentar von Jeremypwnz

should i tame the beast with 300-450 damage, 8k health and 3k armor?

Kommentar von Mister6002

I just killed him ( Lvl 43 druid ) with a lvl 55, hard fight cause he hits hard ( about 0.5k)

Kommentar von 47965

He is SLOW. I'm a 38 Hunter, just kited him from spawn point to Loch Modan solo. Got him to half HP then a level 50 shadowpriest friend flew out to help finish him off quicker. I kited in circles around Thelsamar, no guards helped. Dropped a green.

Is this thing tamable?

Kommentar von kimsta

Sounds similar to "Quezacotl" a Bird-type Guardian Force in Final Fantasy 8.

This is a great-looking and very unique pet. A must-have for any collector :]

Kommentar von crowface28

solo'd as a 48 hunter. smoked my pet in like 30 seconds, and i'm beast mastery so that hurt. He was kitable though, with cheetah and cuncuss shots. long fight, and he dropped some whale cloak, so hrmph. w/e though, good challenge. verdant keeper's aim ftw

Kommentar von 97638

Kited him to Kargath, but no gaurds attacked...

Kommentar von MoonLite

Use Flash Bomb , works like a charm :)

Obtainable from nearby quest: Pearl Diving (quest also gives: Schematic: Flash Bomb )

Kommentar von 117919

NOT daoble as a 47 Shaman, guess ill have to come back later. Frost Shock / EB got resisted waay too much. And as a Sidenote, after I reincarnated, he immediately attacked me again, despite him being Neutral, but he went Red as soon as I came back alive.
And as a response to inscroutibob, he 3 shotted me :P, as lvl 47, last one being a 612 crit or so.

Player Death

Zaricotl seems much calmer now that it has eaten the remains of <Player>.

Kommentar von Bantu

i just soloed him with my lvl41 hunter twink. (31/0/0 specced with tenacity pet).
turn your aspect of the cheetah on, let your pet attack him and run ~3minutes trough the whole badlands without aggroing any mobs. use frost trap to kite him and switch between aspect of the viper and aspect of the cheetah when he's slowed. i ran towards kargath and back where he spawns.
sry for my 'bad' english skills.

Quetzacoatl, the creature the name is likely derived from, is not originally a Final Fantasy creation. The Aztec god, appearing as a serpent with the wings of a bird colored in all the hues of the rainbow; inspired the FF creature, Coatl from D&D, this bird, and the entire Wind Serpent beast family.

Kommentar von 321392

i kno hes in FF8 ive played it dude i made a mistake so i corrected it

Kommentar von Mausabie

WHy is he in lvl 39 area? I died two times from him

Kommentar von 315859

Result of an illicit affair between a Son of Arugal (or maybe a Devilsaur) and a vulture, lol...

Sneaky sneaky overpowered...

Kommentar von 360670

Im a 80 hunter who loves to get rares and get rid of them.My friend had this bird so i decided to take a shot at tameing it.I went and i looked threw the three places the rare cheeta spawns then looked in the southern location and it was right there.I tamed at about 2:23 server time on vek'nilash.So if your looking to tame this pet make sure you use your freeze trap and look out for the adds around it,a wolf attacked me during tame.Good Luck And Happy Hunting! :)

Kommentar von wildowned1995

It is wolfes around him, kill them / get them to him if you want to get him, dont know why he eats us :S

Kommentar von 422867

Just killed by lvl 50 hunter wiv croc pet

Beware!
If u look at the silver dragon around his portrait it DOES hav a wing meaning this guy is both rare AND an elite, silver dragons without wings r still rares (so they should still drop at least a green) but they r not elites - meaning they hav less health/armor/dmg

i met this birdy tonight when exploring the zone with my lvl 40 rogue...
...i ran beside him when i saw his uncommon skin and the special naming...
...targeted him and my assumption was corret...
...its a rare spawn...
...i jumped down from my mount and used stealth and enjoyed the thought of grabbing his trophey while trying to make screenshot of him...
...
...however... something went wrong...
...as i was closing him more and more i just got into combat and the freaking bird was aiming directly at me... and pulled like 2-3 mobs with him as well...
... well... damn :D ... wtf? ( i was asking me) ...
... and then i realized the Skull at his lvl position, and the amount of HPs :D

... so what could i do? ...
... i run... :D
... and maybe it was the fate or the Light of Elune which saved me...
... (if you ask me... it was the Shadowmelt... thx to mother nature that Night Elves are born with it :D)

end of story ;)

(then i logged onto my main 80 lock trophy collector and turned the birdy into phoenix... or at least, he was so engulft with flames by my conflagrate :D)

nice pet for hunters

Kommentar von Knabber

you can out-run him if you have at least +15% run speed (you will both move at the same speed, but you will not get hit).

Kommentar von 536265

Lol just killed him on my 56 rogue...god that was a pain. Blew off Evasion at the last second, plus ghostly strike, i stayed alive with 45 health (!) and finished the fight....phew, close one. I had almost been killed by this thing before, i was surprised to see he was neutral. So i did a background check.....does he seriously get "calm" after eating a corpse? xD Guess it sucks to be whatever horde guy walked across his path before me....ouch. That sounds like an epic emote though xD i think i'll drag a couple hordies around to get attacked by him.

Kommentar von Mystery21

This bird, strangely, has the highest drop rate for "Mysterious" Unhatched Eggs. he must make very mysterious eggs that never had the chance 2 hatch. :P

Kommentar von Arxroth

I do wonder if this bird keeps the taunt when you tame it...'
It would be just gloat for enemies.

Did meet this again, and now he remained to be calm... dunno reason.

Kommentar von StaticLgtBrngr

Seems the remains of all the hapless characters he has fed upon over the years have finally sated Zaricotls' hunger as I rode past him several times today while farming mithril and he was neutral to me each time, was he changed at some point or did he simply eat someone that didn't agree with him before I got there?

He wasn't killing between feeds either as there was hardly anyone in the zone apart from myself and I even followed him around for about 10 minutes to see if he became hostile again, but he didn't.

/shrug

Kommentar von 476166

This guy is an @#$%^&*.

Sorry, but... I WAS MINDING MY OWN DAMN BUSINESS. >:( On a PvP realm too! Here I was all, killing birds for a quest, and keeping an eye out for Hordies, strolling along I was. Everything was going my way. One more buzzard left and I was free to leave this god-forsaken wasteland. Then all of the sudden, the buzzard pimp up there ruined my *!@#. And then he has the nerve to calm down. My blood is practically caffeine, and he has the NERVE to calm down. When I came back to my broken, injured body, he spots me again and lays waste to my feeble mortal form!

I'm very sure if I had my sister with me, he would've urinated on her right in front of my dead body while calling me a sissy!

... ARGHPTHHB! **** YOU ZARICOTL!

Kommentar von 430528

NEXT PATCH!

Zaricotl will be returning to the game and will be changing into a brand new white vulture with yellow head feet and tails (Vanilla WoW model)

Kommentar von 393077

Did just find Zaricotl at coords 56,43. This spot was not marked on the PTR map.

Kommentar von Sythas

Tamed this beauty this morning, was north of the current markings on wowhead map around 56,54, was flying on the ground and moved back and forth in a very small circle.

Server: Eonar EU.
Time: Around 10:00 game

Kommentar von Scarabhunter

Tamed at (56.3, 43.4) on Elune at 11:30 am server time. He flies very low to the ground and contrasts with the red dirt very well since his color change to white.

Kommentar von 655509

Zaricotl, the Fel Reaver of the Badlands.

Kommentar von 742619

Tamed him this evening, he was neutral to me, an Undead.

Kommentar von 149563

As of this writing, I'm currently waiting for it to spawn so that I may tame it, but I notice wowhead has the mob as neutral to Alliance yet hostile to Horde.

If that's indeed accurate (and once it spawns I'll know for sure) isn't that kind of odd?

Kommentar von Kavaria

Ran into this guy the other day on my lvl 44 Hunter. He is no longer an elite as most of the comments on here suggest that he was in the past.

Checked to see if he could be tamed and was delighted to read that he's tamable. Unfortunately when I went to do so I received the message "Not high enough level to tame." Which was new for me, but then again I've only tamed two pets thus far.

So I leveled through the badlands and came back at now lvl 48, but he's disappeared! I cannot run into this bird again for anything it seems. My Hunter is currently placed to where I can simply log on her and check if Zar is around, but in the past 5 days there's been nothing.

Not giving up though! Just wish there were more comments about his spawn times.

EDIT: Finally tamed him! Checked for him a couple times throughout today and he finally appeared at 5:50p realm time on Mok'Nathal. He also was still neutral to me.

Kommentar von rhandric

When he becomes aggressive he emotes: Zaricotl starts flapping its wings and sqwaking loudly. You have a feeling that you are about to be its next meal!

Kommentar von littleminx

Ran into this bird this morning but i couldnt tame him as was only lvl 45 so i killed him :( but 5 hours later i retured and there he was and i was lvl 48 so tamed him :D very happy now x

Kommentar von 1015976

I wanted to tame this pet on my level 50 hunter. So I came here around 9pm server time he wasn't here. I played a couple of bgs and stuffs while I was roaming in the region, he wasn't spawning!

I was about to logout for the night and all of a sudden he shows up in front of my face :O! It was 11:48pm server time!

He was HUGE before tame of course. But he's still a very nice pet! Really unique!

Good luck to all.

Kommentar von Zyroes

Since I don't see it listed anywhere, I'd like to add that his respawn time is approximately three hours. I found his corpse right after someone else had killed him, and decided to wait for him since I liked his skin.

He also spawned as neutral if that's worth noting.

Kommentar von Albaharmamar

Since most of these comments are pretty useless and don't offer any help in the taming of this beautiful bird, i'd like to say his spawn time seems to be around 3-5hrs. i waited for 3hrs before he spawned, but i can not say for sure how long he was not there when i arrived.
He spawns right in the middle of a popular questing area so he is often killed or tamed shortly after he spawns.

Kommentar von Hugulin

He spawned me at 11:50 pm, npcsan off. As Squidbillies is on.

Zaricotl https://youtu.be/029qemBMf9c?t=81

Kommentar von DrCheis

Deathwing's appearance in Badlands must have traumatized Zaricotl. Not only did he lose his pigmentation, he also lost his elite status and his level advantage over the other mobs in the area. He is now an appropriate challenge for players casually questing.

Kommentar von penguinsane

Sadly, with the release of 8.0, Zaricotl's skin has been changed from the original white with black feathers and orange face/legs/tail. He is now an off white with dingy yellow face and tail, no longer with the black tipped wings. He was the only buzzard with that particular skin, so now it is no more. He is currently the only buzzard with the new white skin at least, even if it's not as nicely colored as the other.

Kommentar von increditha

TomTom waypoint quick copy/paste: /way Badlands 56.6 44.0 Zaricotl (flying just above the ground around here)

Kommentar von 2343249

I have tried to tame Zaricotl for my hunter for several months now and she's never there. Also all other rares in Badlands and Burning Steppes are totally gone. I have no idea if this is a bug or botting but there sure is something fishy. I would love to know if someone can verify they still exist.
