Kommentar von Merowlin

Fun "little" thing found in the Stormwind Sewer system.
It's an "albino" Crocolisk.

Doesn't drop anything, normally.

Kommentar von dalle

Horde's more lucky with Gamon.. as this thingy never really drops good stuff (about 1/50 kills, at a pathetic respawn rate) where as gammon tends to drop linen cloth (which can be sold for some neat cash). And according to his loot table he can actually drop some greens and potions. And a lot of vendor loot. Gg, horde wins

Gamon: http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=6466#00Rzc

Kommentar von 55952

No special loot, so don't expect much. Also has a huge HP pool, so it might not be worth the effort to kill it.

However, I believe it's tameable, and susceptible to Freezing Trap - have fun, hunters. =)

Kommentar von haloman800

1st time i killed..... first time i killed him i was lvl 19 and i got a lvl 60 to help, he droped the tooth..... 2nd time i killed him i was lvl 65 and droped same thing... lol not worth it. (p.s. if ur ever on Anentheron pst Golgothaa currently lvled at 65)

Kommentar von 83344

How often does it spawn? I'm sure the hunters of WoW would like to know.

Kommentar von Vollana

i think it's on a 12hr spawn cycle... not sure

Kommentar von 17244

These spawn quite a bit. Every time I feel like seeing one, I just take a ride to the ends of the canals, and 4/5 of the time it's there. I've seen so many now that because I've already got one in the stables, I just kite them into the Trade District.

Kommentar von 92921

I seen a lvl 16 hunter that just swim back of it and he dont attack him O.o i dont try it so dont know he would attack if you swim close too him. So just try. I get help of 1 in lvl 70 and it just dropped the pointy crocolisk tooth.

Kommentar von 82099

this might be a reference to the New York City's urban legend of how there are alligators in the city's sewers

Kommentar von 104455

This named mob doesn't have a rare mob loot table, nor is it used in any quest objectives. Its only purpose is to serve a Hunter as a unique Pet. It has a lengthy spawn timer and can be found at the ends of the Stormwind Canals, such as right outside Stormwind Keep. Unlike most rare mobs, he doesn't wander after appearing, remaining stationary at whatever spawn point it happens to be at. He is also unique in that he is the only tameable mob in the entire game to regularly spawn inside a capital city. The creature is very large, is yellow/brown with a light tint of white coloration on its body.

Three young boys that fish the canals will sometimes talk about the Sewer Beast, but this is in no way an indication of his spawning. Also it has been rumored that the creature is likely to spawn between 8 and 10 AM server time. He is probably a reference to the common urban legend of aligators living in city sewers.

In the World of Warcraft beta test, the Sewer Beast was the largest tamable creature in the world, approximately the length of eight human characters lying down on the ground if lined up head to toe. After pet size normalization, he no longer has that distinction, but is still one of the least-seen hunter pets on most servers.

I just killed it with a 56 warlock... I still remember in low level with my main pala, when I saw this, I got a huge shock and og scared :P xD ...Good old times :P

Kommentar von Glows

On my lvl 14 mage with my 13 warlock friend, we were fishign together having fun and such, my friend deicded to hop in the water and cover my bobber, when he didn't come bakc up from his dive, and died instantly, like in a horror movie when you go under but don't come back up, I jumped down and saw him charging at me, and my friends corpse, I was scared, tried to run, sadly swimming decreases your speed, as for crockolisks, it increases speed, it caught up in no time, one hit us both, would have made a perfect horror movie, I wish I had my fraps turned on... :\

Kommentar von 81465

Someone told me he shares a spawn timer with Timmy. Comfirm/deny?

Kommentar von 121466

saw it at 67.0, 56.9 3 times :) at the same place

This crocolisk is unique in that it has 6 legs instead of 4.

Kommentar von 115120

I've yet to see the giant croc. Everyone always tells me about it, but I still have never seen it. Oh well.

Kommentar von Wario388

I just saw him at 2:25 pm server time. Since I'm only level 39, I have yet to tame him, but today was the first time I saw him, so I'm not so sure I'll be able to get him as a pet yet.

Kommentar von 167512

Yea I've heard about this beast before. I too have never seen it. But I think tonight I'll give it a whirl and see if I can catch him (God it's Pokemon sometimes when you're a hunter).

Kommentar von 42298

LOL, someone must have kited it to the AH, would love to have seen that! This is the first I have heard of this creature, am definetly going to go check it out, love collecting rare pets! Oh, and loved the comment above about the two friends fishing and getting killed, lol, too funny!

Kommentar von 181235

Killed this croc today on my holy pala since none of the hunters around wanted to tame it =(
He was between the Mage and Trade sections of SW.
Kited it onto land to get some good screenshots. Happy hunting

Kommentar von zeakster777

how often does he spawn? i just saw him and killed him thinking that some1 else would take him if i went back to the stable master and put in y pet to tame him.But i do want him as a pet.

Kommentar von pegun1

will it´s hp be altered when tamed or will it still have 18k hp? :)

Kommentar von 199669

I have killed this NPC 2times

Kommentar von zeakster777

He can be found at any of the ends of the canals in Stormwind City.It is random which one he spawns at.He is a lvl 50 rare with 15k HP.It does NOT drop any loot except for a tooth and maybe a bag,but I've killed him 3 times and nothing but the tooth dropped.So you're best bet is to porbably just tame him if you're a hunter,otherwise it really isn't worth your time.Good luck everyone and I hope you have fun taming this guy hunters.

Kommentar von Khyor

ncidentally this guy does not have a unique skin. His look is shared with a handful of other crocolisks, any of which may be easier to find than him.

Albino Croc Skin

That being said, the others are 18-19, 41 (another rare) or 67-68, so if you're in the middle somewhere, this could be your guy.

Kommentar von 199669

downed this beast about 3 or 4 times and for a lvl 70 hunter it is easy to find this beast use track beasts then run around the city

Kommentar von 176212

Funny to see all the noob/lowbies trying to kill it... Im not a mean person so after it killed them 5-6 times i went in a helped... And yes just rank this coment down just wanted to say it :D

Kommentar von TurboX

I read the following quote on wowwiki.com:
"It is neutral to Alliance, so he wont attack you if you swim in canals. He is, however, hostile to Horde"

But as stated on this site, he IS hostile to Alliance, and supported by a previous low-level poster who was attacked.

I haven't been snooping around the Canals much, can anyone find out which site is correct?

Kommentar von 172283

i think he is just for fun :P

Kommentar von maxaslagolis

i dont get it the horde should get a monser too why do we get ripped!=D

Kommentar von Boarwood

I recall seeing him once before as an ally, and he was indeed hostile. He may behave like Zaricotl, and become neutral after eating a player.

Kommentar von AfroNinja

I've seen this guy three times before, the first time he didn't drop anything, second time he dropped a green but a ninja needed it. The last time two low levels convinced me to help them kill it but in mid fight one of them changed the loot to loot master. It was obvious he planned to keep the loot (if there was any that is) so i vanished, left the group and watched them get 'PwNt' ;) lol

Kommentar von 246504

As to the rumors saying that it may not be hostile towards alliance, this may be true as of 2/07/09 i was on my twink mage, accidently had auto run on and ran right into the water landed almost right on top of this monster, although i didn't move it still didn't attack me when i was fairly close, i had an 80 pally kill it for me and it dropped its tooth, happy hunting though. :D

Kommentar von 173812

It can drop a bag, which can lead to MANY funny RP ways :) Maybe it killed an explorer and ate his bag? Maybe his bag fell into the water and no one belived when he told them a crocolisk ate his bag? Who knows ffs

Kommentar von realta

I've seen it twice- 2 years ago and then today, just now. A lvl 65 pally just killed it. It was between the cathedral square and dwarven district.

Kommentar von 336010

Can the Sewer Beast be tracked?

Kommentar von 327764

its back!i've been playin about two years never seen it till this morning.50lvl rare.i was wandering why i never saw it

Kommentar von 320420

DESPITE what the people above me say... he is not hostile to Alliance. I saw him a LONG time ago on my noob warrior and I was really freaked out. But I was curious and went closer, and closer, and even closer until we were going through each other. He/she/it didn't attack me. But because I thought I could get away (like I said I was a NOOB at the time) I attacked it. Hit me for 500.

Also a little note to the high levels out there: If you see it please don't kill it, others will want to check it out too.

Kommentar von 273578

would you to please stop bickering?yes, it is a rare(i belive it has a 20 hour spawn timer, but not sure), but that doesnt mean that some people will not see it multiple times.as for hostility, i cant awnser that one.

Kommentar von 327412

Be carful lower levels just swiming around!

Kommentar von 329570

Just tamed it today! (58 Draenei) W00T! I had been checking the sewers for this one for a little while. =}

Kommentar von realta

Anyone else find it disturbing that a Sewer Beast is in the Canals?

I swim in those Canals! :<

Kommentar von Fruhauf

Justin says: You know there are crocolisks in the Canals. They were brought the swamp as pets, but got thrown in the canals.
Brandon says: Sounds kinda like one of Billy's fish stories to me.
Roman says: I thought I heard something..

Roman says: I don't think there's any fish in these canals.

Roman says: Eww... that's not a fish!

Roman says: I hope that was a fish!

Roman says: Something smells funny..

Roman says: I think I see something..

If you're ever fishing off one of the docks in SW by the 3 boys, they do occasionally talk about the Sewer Beast (among other things). Clearly Roman is the scardy-pants of the 3, and constantly says something related to thinking he sees the crocolisk.

Justin says: There is no spoon.
Brandon says: That's neat.

Kommentar von Gnoktish

When i first started the game i found this guy, after being amazed that a rare lives in SW ( and unknowing that i cannot kill things that are a Skull to me) i gave him a shadow bolt and missed then died. i had a priest buddy look at me and just laugh his a$$ off

Kommentar von 385587

Yes! As of 3:50 PM CST Friday, June 19 2009 I am the proud owner of a sewer beast! I caught him in between old town and the trade district. I ditched my bear and got in the water, put down my freezing trap and 15 seconds later he was mine! Caught on the Nesingwary realm.

Kommentar von 433008

So I'm hunting around SW with my hunter looking for this thing and I can't seem to find him anywhere! Is he stealth or something? Do I have to be in the water to find him?

Kommentar von 422867

having similar problem 2 SivDre

By SivDre - 9 days ago (Patch 3.1.3)
So I'm hunting around SW with my hunter looking for this thing and I can't seem to find him anywhere! Is he stealth or something? Do I have to be in the water to find him?

I'm assuming he is trackable, and the actual sewer gates appear 2 spawn in different locations evrytime, a moving sewer is kinda creepy...

Please correct me if im wrong about the trackability

Edit: Hav also checked at the recommended time (8-10am server time) and still nothing :(

Kommentar von 448042

I found him 58.4 41.5

Was with my friend going to do 25 OS left Track beast on for when I was looking for Skoll then I see a random red dot. First I thought Feral druid THEN Silver dragon mod went BOOM and it was the random Sewer Beast we killed it (yay) dropped nothing (boo)

Kommentar von 464354

I heard about this beast when i first started playing and have been afraid to jump in the canals because of it for a loong time.. I know, im a chicken :D But i get easily scared :D

But now my hunter was 80 and i remembered the tale about the beast so i startet checking here for info about it.
I have been looking for about a week and was starting to belive it was a great scam :(
I was checking the canals in the morning and every hour and spamming /tar Sewer, but nothing...

But yesterday 2/10-09 at 4:20 pm i found him!
Right outside Sw Keep slacking in the water... :)
He only did like 220-280 dmg to me at a time, so it was no problem taming him..

I must say i was a little dissapointed when a saw that he lost alot of his hp pool and actually getting smaller when he was tamed.. Buuhh..
I just got used to the idea of having a 17k big buch of meat attacking and thunderclapping my enemies..

If you are a hunter your Tracking Beast abillity would help alot for finding him, and no, you dont have to be in the water. The red dot in the canals is not easily ignored :)

Me and my brother play wow and didn't think the sewer beast existed anymore.then,right when he said that i saw him.so my bro got on his 80 and ripped him apart for a change.usually its him ripping apart the player!also i tamed deadmire from dustwallow and named him sb jr.(the sb stands for sewer beast)

Kommentar von 493327

Found this creature today at 2:50 realm time (Argent Dawn US RP server)
It dropped the Pointy Crocolisk Tooth, and Skinned for Thick Leather.
Someone I know had actually found him first, thought he was just a normal creature until I told her what it was.
I feel kind of bad that another player and I killed him. Someone could have had him as a pet. :(
Anyway, he does still spawn, so just proof.

Kommentar von 551506

oh my goodness... the last time i saw this beast it was still a (?) to me, now im a 72 and i finally found him, and tamed that sucka! i was so excited!

I've been looking for him too.. not camping out or anything, but everytime im in SW, and bored, i'll run around with my track beast on, down to the end of the canals.. but like i said, its been like 50 lvls since Ive seen him

easy tame, and im a little disappointed that he doesn't keep his elite status like my devilsaur did,

but still a rare pet and the fact its been so long... im excited.

I'm not sure if this was meant to be , but on my level 14 alt, i saw him , moved all around until my mate came , and it didn't aggro.

Kommentar von 575762

I just tamed one ten minutes ago. 3:30pm server time 4/14/10 I heard rumors before about this beast but wasn't even looking for it. i just happened to get distracted and fall in the water!

Kommentar von Evariste93

Was looking around SW for the horde who were attacking when i saw his healthbar show up on my screen. Hopped on my hunter, and jeez he hits hard. Hit me for 250 per hit, JUST managed to tame him with 60 health left...
Might want to group with a healer if you're unsure if you can tame him...be quick, too, don't want someone to kill him as you corpse run.

Kommentar von faeofwind

Passed this guy several times while doing loremaster. He was usually at the end of the sewer just before the keep.

Finally killed him after the 20th pass when he was still there. I Initially left him alone in case hunters were looking, but apparently he's unloved =( So i put him out of his misery and he dropped:

Abjurer's Pants of Spirit
and a grey.

Kommentar von Tarudizer

Oh how I remember the old, old days when I played as alliance and went for a swim.......

....and didn't come back up.

I was just swimming around in the canal and I swam up to the side, and this guy was INSIDE the wall. Snapped me in half and bugged out.

That rat bastard, Im gonna go kill it right now.

So is dere a hostile rare to find in orgrimmar or any other city for that matter

Kommentar von kourampies

Back in 2005, when i started wow, a real life friend lock summoned me to sw right when i started (lvl 1 or 2).

I hadnt even figured out how to walk and stop, sto I fell into the canals, and the crocolisk got me right away. Fun memories :p

Kommentar von pancakemage

I killed this :D I was like hum de dum de dum.. woooooaaaaahhhh! wasnt to hard to kill as an 80 :P

Kommentar von ThoriumGargoyle

I found this guy on my 80 dk in the PTR.

Kommentar von 749745

so he is still available in sw after cata. sweet i thought he got removed. was soo looking forward to getting him on my new hunter when i came back to wow

Kommentar von Lazurianis

I managed to see him on LB AFTER CATA WAS RELEASED Silverdragon went off on my lowbie rogue so I had a group but before I knew it a level 85 Hunter saw him and killed him. So just beware there are a lot of loot $%^&*s out there. "AMG RARE KILL KILL" he didnt even check if he was tameable. -.-"

Edit: He still exsists, got mine merely moments ago, so happy :)

Kommentar von 60610

killed it in cata live, dropped only a the standard grey tooth, is skinnable however unsure if that changed, though i don't see it being any different.

50 rare elite mob, unsure of the XP it would give now as i would assume that's the only thing it's good for.

(albino crocs can be tamed all over azeroth and beyond... easily)

Kommentar von Clopin

I've been hunting this beast since before Cataclysm with no luck, thought it no longer existed when Cata came out until I kept reading comments indicating otherwise. Finally tamed him about two weeks ago with my level 70 hunter, so it wasn't difficult, found at approximately 46.4, 71.0. Turned in the daily cooking quest, turned around, took a few steps and there was a random red dot amid the yellow ones. Put my cursor over it which said "Sewer Beast", jumped in the water and there was the albino crocolisk. Rarest rare spawn I've ever hunted, never have I had to wait so long to find it. I kept reading that he spawns between 8am and 12pm, but I found him in the middle of the night, so the times are in no way any indication of when he'll actually pop up. A friend of mine had actually started doubting he existed anymore, but once he heard that I'd found and tamed it he believed! This beast shows up as a red dot, the only red dot in the canals these days with no Horde trying anything, so he's pretty easy to spot on a hunter's beast tracker. He's still out there and he's a ver unique beast, never really seen anyone else with a white crocolisk. I was tempted to tame a white one out at Stormspire in Netherstorm, but I'm glad I didn't. If you're on Uldaman and see a NE hunter named Taanipu with a white crocolisk named Monty, yes, folks, that IS the SW Sewer Beast XD
Server: Uldaman
Hunter: Taanipu (lvl 70 NE)

Kommentar von sarius

I remember this guy from my very first week playing WoW on it's launch,... pretty sure.

It one shot my friend, we were both really low level and it was was the first "skull" level mob we'd seen. WoW was new to us back then and was all about exploring and learning the world. No Wowhead or Allakhazam, itemlevel, nobody cared about loot, heck I didn't know anything beyond "green" quality armour even existed.

So we saw this guy,.. and kept swimming closer to him, afraid of what might happen. But nothing did... we kept edging closer,.. kept testing its patience...

Then... with sound on full (cuz back then,.. no addons,.. no messing with settings for me) - the croc struck my friend, and 1 shot him,.. instantly killing him with a loud roar.

I absolutely jumped out of my seat in terror.

One of the best memories of WoW I have. Those were the days.

Kommentar von 125477

as of 4/02/2011 this mob still drops nothing but a pointy crocolisk tooth

Kommentar von Malifecent

ok, so I am a level 85 druid, and was swimming around doing the crabby daily, and ran smack right into this guy. Killed him right away, then decided to come here to check to see what info there is on him. So I am reading the comments at my leisure then go back to my game...and I am dead!
....i drowned....and what makes it even worse...is that I wasn't in aquatic form....*dies from embarrassment*

Kommentar von Lazurianis

4.1 HE STILL EXSISTS

I just tamed him moments ago, he is very difficult to find because guards often kill him so be on your toes, im so happy I finally got mine :)

Kommentar von Aaeiyn

I've only seen this twice in my four years of playing WoW. The Sewer Beast, I believe, is one of the rarest mob in the game. The first time I saw it, there was a bunch of alliance toons gathered in one spot of SW close to the canal end, and I only saw it's corpse...not sure if that really counts as "seeing" him. The second time, a friend had to point it out to me, and I saw him alive for the first time, and I killed it. I have yet to find him alive without help from others LOL. I heard that he spawns the same with Lil' Timmy, the rare vendor that sells the white kitten, but I believe this is false because I checked the canals for the sewer beast, either it did spawn, and I was too late, or this statement is false, I don't know. All I know is, it's always a joy to be apart of the viewing of this mob because like I stated before, he's the rarest mob in the game.

Kommentar von charlie672

rest bonus + 25% heirloom bonus + 10% midsummer bonus + guild perks = 14094 xp at lvl 45...kinda good boost when you can solo it as prot paladin

Kommentar von 708527

I just killed him on Draenor tonight approx 1AM server. All I got was the tooth. I saw him all the way in the back of the canal by the entrance to the SW port. He was under the dock where the kids were talking about him. After I killed him, I checked here to read the info on him. Now I feel bad, I should have yelled for a hunter. Oh well, but at least I can say he for sure still does exist as of 4.2. I always had a hunch there was something since I aways heard those kids talking about him.

Kommentar von 873504

THE SEWER BEAST LIVES.

I have a thing for rare spawns, so naturally I had heard of the legendary sewer beast pior to my encounter. However, I never farmed him. But today, a friend and myself were goofing off in stormwind. We would fly up into the air and then remove our mounts and see how far we would fall without dying. On one attempt, as I hit the water I was left with minimal life, and then POOF. I'm dead. I rotated my screen to see none other than the Sewer Beast himself. I quickly respawned and ran back and tamed him (im a 72 hunter). And then took a moment of glory to scream "I GOT THE SEWER BEAST" - He's a cutie and well worth the terrifying death

Kommentar von 787695

Gives new meaning to the term "City life can be painful."

Kommentar von 879728

Saw this beast today @9:45 am at 47,59 on realm Khaz'goroth

Kommentar von kurasii

Was just doing my rounds for Timmy and saw his red nameplate... freaked out, went to go kill him in panic/excitement, and a guard killed him before I could! I think I got the first shot in, but I didn't get any loot from him. I'm a hunter and I guess I could've tamed him, but there literally wouldn't have been enough time.

I got the last laugh though, because the guard is now stuck in the water.

Kommentar von 782722

In the 3+ years I've been playing WoW, I've seen this mob once.
I saw it when I first started playing and my main toon didn't even have his first mount. If it didn't happen to be my hunter, I never would've even seen it.

I casually mentioned something in guild chat about some high level croc with a silver dragon portrait just chillin' in the sewer. The guild leader whispered me, then swapped to his DK to come kill it. At the time I thought it was one of the funniest things to see such a mob just hanging out in the main city.

I killed it this morning, it took a while to kill as a 68 dk, it didn't injure me much but it was boring to kill. It does move, not just stay in the grate, when I saw it it was swimming along.

Kommentar von 860132

Just killed it with my 58 DK. Took a while and only dropped a pointy crocolisk tooth... And got me stuck swimming in the canals looking for a way out.. did give a nice chunk of XP though

Kommentar von 1000725

I was in the canals on a hunter trying to tame it when some 85 gnome jumps in and kills the darn thing. Anyone know the spawn time cycle?

Kommentar von 347035

I started playing WoW in 2004, i started a human mage not knowing what the hell i was doing, i levelled it until the point where i came to stormwind when i saw the canals i instantly flashed back to all the platformers i played as a kid, so of course i jumped in to see if i could swim. I swam under the water and saw this huge mob, so i attacked it not knowing what a level ? was.

I died instantly, and when i tried to tell people what happened they all said there wasn't anything in the water that could do that. I type this now, because over 7 years later and a faction change back to alliance and I JUST SAW IT AGAIN. It does exist.

I got my revenge.

Kommentar von Kolbruns

Playing since 2008, I missed the Sewer beast by seconds a few months ago, didn't even get to see him, but my NPCScan went off and a smug looking rogue laughed at me when he'd evidently killed and skinned it.
So today,I'm in the AH on Medivh server when Scan goes off, I get lucky and pick the right canal, kill Mr Sewer Beast and he drops.......(drumroll) a gray tooth. Weeee! I am just so thrilled! Talk about anti-clamactic. Bad Blizz, no cookie.

Kommentar von Clopin

If you see it, please don't kill him, he drops no worthwhile loot and there may hunters trying to tame him :(

Hunters, you can get a crocolisk with the exact same colorings in wetlands. she is called horrorjaw and is a quest objective so has a high respawn rate.

Kommentar von 933665

my hunter got him today i've been playing for 6 years and this is the first time i've seen him

Kommentar von Deihjan

Ah, good ol' Sewie.
I remember back in 2006 when I first joined WoW and I made my way to Stormwind as a level 16'ish NE hunter. This was when Sewer Beast was rare, but not overly so and he'd be up practically every day unless someone killed him. The first time I saw him I was awestruck, a skull-leveled monster of a crocolisk, the first white one I'd seen since they didn't exist in that model in Wetlands or Loch Modan, both zones I had braved a few hours before, and I decided I wanted him for my own.
My journey to level 50 was a long one, but when I finally got there I tamed him almost straight away.

In 4.0.3a I learned that several beasts had gone extinct, and I never did see Sewer Beast again since I quit WoW, rejoined WoW and went Horde, then race-changed back to Alliance. Not until today did I learn that he never actually disappeared, and this rekindled my love for good ol' wheezie.
I'm making myself a promise, I'll go scout him out on my Pandaren hunter as soon as I can, Hordie or not, I need my good old pal in my stable again.

I'm sure other hunters will recognize the feeling I'm currently experiencing; a pet you bonded with stays a friend, through several patches, nerfs, buffs, race- and faction changes as well as switching classes, you'll always return to a favourite friend and trusted companion.
Here's to Sewer Beast, the meanest ol' croc in Stormwind.

just saw him for the first time in all the years i've played (alliance). contrary to a previous poster's comment, he did NOT stay still, but cruised the canal, quickly getting out of reach. i flew up ahead, popped the tame, and a second after he attacked me, i saw his health pool drop to half... and then he was dead. i surfaced just in time to see a SW guard running back to his post. bastard. my prize wasn't even lootable or skinnable! but gosh he was HUGE.
even if i didn't get to add him to my collection of rare and unusuals, i at least got to SEE him 'in the flesh!' :D

Kommentar von Barleduq

Came here to check, so glad to see he's still around. The only time I've seen him has been on toons too low level to even stand toe to um. tooth with him. Ever since I got a hunter high enough to tame, I've not seen him again.

Getting ready to start camping stormwind again...

Kommentar von OvrKill

This guy still exists. Just saw him on my lvl 23 Monk at 3:30am server time.I noticed that it was a rare and that it's lvl was a skull. So i switched to my lvl 90 warlock (thinking he was lvl 90), and killed him (not knowing who he was, i thought i would get a lvl 50 blue or at least something good) but he doesnt drop anything good (i got a grey tooth worth 3 silver). After reading these comments, I now want make a hunter, and just get to a high enough lvl to tame him.

I've only seen this mob once in my WoW experience... and the first time was this morning. I was heading off to the Transmogrification Place, I went in and Transmogged my gear... walked out and saw the nameplate of 'Sewer Beast' then I thought, "What is this?" I jumped in the water, clicked his portrait, and saw he was rare. He was at the end when I caught him, I tried to pull him closer to the dock, but a City Guard had already shot him.

Was a pretty sad moment... I really wanted his loot!

Kommentar von Kaeldraa

So today I was just hovering in the air on my sandstone and I see a red nameplate in the canals. I think to myself 'Why the hell is there red in the canals? All that's there is fish!" So I fly down to investigate and see a rare crocolisk! (I will admit I almost fainted there.) I killed it, because I didn't want anyone else to, so I announced it in trade and got several whispers saying that I was lying and it was taken out of the game. WRONG! So several people actually came to look at the corpse. I didn't really get much from it, just a tooth, but I wouldn't care if I did anyhow. What matters is that I've been playing WoW for quite a while and seen it ONCE! Never thought any rares existed in capital cities!

Level 43 pala, saw this guy and that he was a 50-rare, said heck whatever, attacked him, two shotted him..
Now I see i should have hopped on to my hunter and tamed him :(

Kommentar von 983833

Saw it today on my lvl 36 rogue, hopped on to my lvl 87 mage and killed it. Surprised it existed too.

Kommentar von Alliekatt

Just got killed by him on my little roguelette... was at the end near King and made the mistake of right clicking him to see how many hit points he has... Where i have throw bound. I didn't worry too much because it said evade, until he swam toward me an jumped up on the area I was calmly standing with my false sense of security. Yes, one bite with his 53k+ eliteness, and I was toast!

My next thought was just logout dead and grab my hunter to tame him, when to my horror, the guards shot him.

Finally found him, after searching for weeks, laid down a freeze trap, began to tame him and some jerk comes along and kills him. Times like that, I almost wish I could PVP my own faction.

Kommentar von clatt87

Tip for my Horde friends. I did a naked run through stormwind on my level 50 Troll Hunter (I wanted it to be glorious and old-school. Realistically you can have someone with a 2-person flying mount drop you in from the top now.) I started at the docks and ended in the shallow end of the canals by the old barracks hiding under the bridge. I then made a level one human and ran her to Stormwind and traversed the canals first thing everytime I would log on. Finally I log on one day and ding NPC scan goes off and there's ol' Sewer Beast swimming back and forth in that short section of canal between the Harbor Entrance and the Old Barracks. So I logged to my hunter real quick, took a very short swim and successfully tamed me a sewer beast. Server is Bleeding Hollow - US, almost a 1 to 1 horde to ally ratio and steady high pop. Just be prepared to wait and be patient. You might have to custom add him to NPC Scan as well and clear cache everytime it goes off for a carcass or one that's already been tamed.

Kommentar von Wimbleton

I've tried to kill him twice now but if you don't kill him quickly, he flees and the SW guards one-shot him. The problem is that even if you have tagged him first and done more than 75% of the damage, you will not get to loot him or get any credit for the kill. It may be a bug or it just may be the designers' sarcastic laughter you're hearing.

Kommentar von FrostWolf219

Ran into him on my lv 20 hunter. I had track beasts on and saw a red dot where there isn't one usually. Read that it said "sewer beast" and went down to see what it was, attack it, and hopefully get something good. I then figured out that the thing had ~30,000 HP and promptly died.

Switched to one of my DKs that was in Stormwind at the time and killed him and only got a grey Pointy Crocolisk Tooth. Talk about pointless.

Kommentar von Darathakhen

Saw this thing while I was chasing Crithto...first time I'd seen the pug so I decided to see if he would show me something good, and on the way just about to the Keep, this huge thing was in the canal. Surprised to see a rare in SW. He didn't drop anything, but I am lvl 85, so that could be why.

Kommentar von Mekrautica

I have a level 90 Worgen Hunter and I found out this morning that this rare Crocolisk, Sewer Beast is in fact still in game and is still tameable. I decided to take a trip thru Stormwind with my NPCscan addon activated. The addon did alarm that it found the Sewer Beast and he was swimming up and down the canal just in front of the Keep. I flew down into the canal at the ready, and while attempting to tame him, a Stormwind Guard was standing atop of the bridge that crosses over the canal was shooting at the rare with his Crossbow causing it to Evade in which was interrupting my channeled tame ability. The Stormwind Guard continued to shoot at the rare, killing it...WTF Blizzard...FML !

on my level 20 worgen hunter i tamed this beast it was level 20 2nd time is coming......

Pretty much, a reference to the rumors of sewer dwelling crocodilians. A connection I made was that the three boys in Stormwind who talk about the creature is uncannily similar to the story of three boys shoveling snow in New York who saw something swimming under a manhole, they pulled it up out of the sewer with a clothesline then beat it to death with their shovels after feeling threatened by the snapping of the alligator.

Kommentar von rentard

He may have been taken out of the game and then reintroduced. Either that or his spawn rate has been raised. I'd only seen him once in about 5 years of play until recently. In the past few Weeks I've seen him 5 times. The first: he was a corpse, second: I forgot to dismiss Loque and he killed him, third, fourth and fifth: damn guards caused him to evade my tames and killed him. I guess I need to see him before they do and maybe use glyph of tame beast.
To those of you who want to kill him, don't! He doesn't drop anything of value and he is worthless to anyone but a hunter!

Kommentar von ucantkillme

funniest thing happened to me i was doing a 2v2 in dalaran sewers and theother team didnt leave the thing that you spawn in and eventually if you dont know what happens it will shoot you out if you stay in to long well they got shot out but they had a friend the sewer beast came flying out behind them and there was no hunter on there team it was a resto druid arms warrior comp so i was kinda shocked it just slammed right through the floor and was gone
then i preceeded to win my arena lol
just thought i would share this random thing with you guys (:

Kommentar von 1371352

Probably the only rare to spawn inside of a major city on Azeroth

Kommentar von Zefram

Still around, saw him today near the prison.

Kommentar von Philster043

The Sewer Beast still exists. Just saw it and tamed him this morning.

I was quite surprised to see it while on my little level 17 paladin though. Glad I checked wowhead to see what it was for - then I realized, hey, my dwarf hunter collects albino animals (white bear - Avalanche, white wolf - Frostbite, etc.), and this guy was perfect for the collection!

Kommentar von Sarineth

Tamed him this morning at 3:51am on Argent-Dawn EU

Kommentar von 784981

Tamed him today on Uther (US) around 11 am est. Seward looks great!

Kommentar von 994776

After 9 yrs trying to get this elusive creature, I finally tamed him today on Cairne around 9:30AM! I thought it was a myth cause I hadn't even SEEN this beast and as I was coming out the transmog building I saw a red bar that said sewer beast and it took me a second to realize what I was seeing. I nearly choked on my coffee as I rushed to abandon one of my pets to tame this guy. Goes to show you find things when you're not even looking! I'm so happy! I was literally telling my newbie friend just last night how I've been searching for him for 9yrs and wasn't sure if he was real. I can't wait to tell him when he gets on! So, in conclusion, never give up, the myth is real and he's still out there!

Kommentar von YoungCaesar

just killed it .

Kommentar von Punka21

I just used my draenei shaman's Astral Recall, glyphed to go to the earthenshrine in Stormwind. She is level 60 as of right now. I mounted my Dread Raven, and flew toward the dock where the fishing dailies are given. I noticed a white crocolisk swimming in the canal waters, and flew down to kill him. I soloed the level 50 beast, and I will keep his pointy crocolisk tooth in her bank forever. (I got my revenge on him for killing a different alt of mine, roughly level 20 at the time, a few years ago.) He still exists as of January 21st, 2016.

Kommentar von Junabee

Step 1: Play with your significant other, on your loomed level 32s, roam around stormwind.

Step 2: Spy a really neat looking rare spawn roaming under the bridge between Trade District and Old Town.

Step 3: Engage in a long, terrifying battle that feels like a raid boss - your rogue tank takes 40% of her hp per auto, you might actually run oom despite your heirlooms.

Step 4: Be proud that you managed to kill a big, scary skull elite!

Step 5: Go to wowhead to see what its loot table was, since what you get is awfully disappointing.. and then feel absolutely terrible and post a public apology to hunters.

My bad!

Kommentar von Weasel609

Just killed it on Ravencrest @4:25 realm time didn't know what it was for and thought it would drop something cool.

Kommentar von siley

Spawned between Cathedral Square and Dwarven District. Killed at 2:15pm on Alexstrasza. Dropped nothing of value.

Kommentar von dimestorecandy

I don't think the city guards are interested in the sewer beast anymore. I kited it past several guards until it reached the end of its pursue radius and returned to the canals. I repeated this in different directions three times and no NPC ever aggroed toward it. So, unless the guards only attack it if its not already in combat, I think it's no longer vulnerable to NPCs.

Kommentar von kendallzemp

spawned noon today 1/7/18 at 69.0, 64.8.

Kommentar von Imthree

saw it this morning at ~6:30am EST

sadly, i only had an alliance hunter at L44 and the game wouldn't even let me try to tame it : (

Kommentar von Barleduq

Fourth time I've ever seen this critter: once too low level, died; once corpse; once on the wrong realm; today, on my mage, Silver Dragon went off. I choked on my drink, logged out, crossed to my linked realm, got on my hunter, ported from Stormshield to Stormwind, dismissed Arcturis as I came out of the mage tower, then had to fly across stormwind to move one of my pets to the stable, and nearly choked again when I saw it was STILL UP.

Tamed 2:15 am server time Shu'Halo.

Anyone know what the spawn timer is?

Kommentar von AnrDaemon

Macro to locate the beast quickly:
/target Sewer Beast
/cleartarget

Level up to 60.
Get a flying mount.
Fly around canals spamming macro.

(Took 2 weeks, but my lil huntress now a proud owner of one.)

A tip: The beast no longer spawn in the western expansion of the city waterways. (The park cascade.) Only in the main canals system.
Personally took her behind the dwarven district, right between bridge to the cathedral and the boat.

Kommentar von Char

About a year or so ago at level 90 on my hunter, npc finder went off. After a min of trying to actually find him, i see the albino beast. my hearts pumping, among other things, and I start taming. 98 percent through, a guard snipes it dead. (Not sure if they could do that or if some player was being a D as usual). Needless to say, i was angry but the next week i caught him, started taming right away and got him to 100%. he wasn't a very impressive appearance so i pretty much permanently stabled him. Now I'm looking at petopia and I see there are 5 other pets with this appearance.
http://www.wow-petopia.com/look.php?id=crocodileskinalbino

So now I have to consider that if he's the same as those pets that i can get anytime, I should free up the slot in my stable. God knows after 10 years of xpacs and rares, those 5 tabs are not close to enough space. Spirit beasts alone nearly take all 5 tabs and I won't remove any of those. I'm never camping arcturis again!

Here's a thought... ADD HUNTER PETS TO THE APPEARANCE SECTION, BLIZZ! On hunters, the stable should appear just like pets and toys but each pet tamed is collected as appearance skins. i.e. you tame the sewer beast or one of the other 5 with the same appearance, you unlock the albino beast pet skin. Petopia already did a lot of the work.

I saw this thing at like 1:30 at night it just swam right by me. I damn near greased my drawers!

Tamed today 7. jan 2019 DarkspearEU

Kommentar von Punka21

I had a fight with this beastie on my level 53 human paladin earlier today. I would have left it for the hunters had it not been for the fact that I was riding a water strider on the canal waters while doing the "steal fish from barrels" daily, and by the time I noticed it, I had aggro, so I had little choice but to fight it or die, as it was doing decent damage. I eventually prevailed without any help from guards or curious players. Since I was less than a bar away from level 54, I actually leveled up from killing it. Of course, it dropped only a tooth worth three silver, but I was just happy to be alive.
Anyway, this is the third time I've seen it, and all three were on alts level 60 or below. I commented on the first time here already. The second time was only about a week ago, and I unfortunately got aggro with a level 33 dark iron monk. The first and second times were both on Durotan, and this one was on Ursin.

Kommentar von OwlGirl

Has this beast become more aggressive since patch 8.0.1? Iv've been killed by him. One of my fiends too, and I've seen him several more times.

Kommentar von Maggieis

He's still there and tamable. Just got him on my hunter today. I know he's not truly unique anymore, but he's fun to have.

Kommentar von Nibelsnarf11

Why the hell would they make something this op spawn in the middle of a capital, just died from it so annoying. Luckily there was aa priest nearby to resurrect don't know what i would of done otherwise.

Kommentar von AgniChai

Came after my 47 priest while I was just walking along the canal and not even in or on the water. F*cking thing came out of the water, followed me over to Robby Flay, nearly killed me, and no guards attempted to kill it. WTH? Why is it here?

Kommentar von Xenoheals

After the Shadowlands prepatch level squish he is now level 50. Time will tell if he scales as far as 60 once the expansion launches.

Kommentar von TerribleAtGames

Just got an unexpected combat experience with Kanalbestie with my moderately undergeared lvl 43 Schurke. This Croc was scaled down to my level, and came running towards me from max distance without being pulled. Despite being same level, he did no logged damage on me and was straight onehit by a single melee autoattack. The log says:

Your Melee hit Sewer Beast 22,735 Physical. (32,297 Overkill) (Critical)
You killed Sewer Beast.

However, the kill did not gave me any xp or anything but a Spitzer Krokiliskenzahn.

Finally tamed on 12/30/2021

Kommentar von Zarinja

While playing on one of my alts and waiting for the Crown Chemical Co. queue, I happened to notice one of the Stormwind boys, Gil, talking. His first dialogue was "My feet hurt" followed by "Is it True? Are there really crocolisks in the canals?" which I couldn't remember if it was a regular part of his dialogue or not. Wondering if this was somehow an indicator of his spawn (and I don't know if this has been mentioned on whether it is or isn't, I couldn't find a comment on it), I flew around the canals and sure enough, Big Boy was over between the Cathedral District and the Dwarven District. Scaled up to level 50, and quite a huge chunk of health for it.

Thought I would share this! Don't know if his dialogue is linked to the spawn, but that'd be neat if it was :)

Kommentar von rabidwargamer

Been playing for 14 years, give or take a few months, and I never saw the Sewer Beast till today (May 06, 2022). Never even knew it existed! Was derping around Stormwind on a lowbie warrior and I saw the mob. Silver icon = insta-charge. Was a much tougher fight than I expected, with "tough" being relative.

I love uncovering little tidbits like this, even after all this time.

Kommentar von UnkindPriest

No one has ever seen an alligator in the sewers, not because they are not there, but because they do not leave witnesess...

Kommentar von gumby760

I saw him just now on Shadowsong for the first time in probably 6 months. He is still around.

Kommentar von Hrazmadul

Found it in the canals with my Evoker. It's level 70 and has 903K HP. I had to bravely run away when I had it at 50% and myself at 1%.

Kommentar von Anistole

The sewer beast is still spawning as of Dragonflight. This was actually my first time ever seeing it in over 10 years of playing.

Kommentar von DaggersEdge

I killed the Sewer Beast on my level 61 character today. It scaled to my level and I ended up receiving 10,000 XP for it, which was definitely unexpected! I doubt that the Diablo event going on currently had anything to do with it.

Kommentar von YoungCaesar

Found it & tamed it at 01-07-2023 around 22:15.
Second time i spotted it in +10yrs world of warcraft.
I regretted the first time i didnt't tamed it.

Good luck Hunters :)

Kommentar von Whild

He has the same appearance as Rotgrip in Maraudon, who is also tamable by hunters, so if you're not able to find this guy head over to Desolace.
