Loot the Corehound!

Kommentar von Schadenfreude

Apparently there is a big lineup at the Kurken, since he counts as a Core Hound as well. Hounds of Culuthas are still demons, though.

Who pulled the firespawn with the Core Hound?

I think a hunter did, but it's tamed now!

Nuff said!

edit: seems like Image shack ate the picture a long time ago. Also, the original comment I had responded to is long gone.

The original image was of the Kurken, tamed, in response to someone asking if it would be a core hound. There was a lot of discussion back in the pre-WotLK days about whether or not the Kurken would count as a Core Hound and thus be tamable by hunters.

Red Core Hound from MC - tamed successfully.

Ancient Core Hound, 62+. Didn’t try the core hound packs for obvious reasons. Duo’d it with the druid in my party, restoration spec’d. Throwaway pet to get you into a resable spot near the first Core Hound, there’s a safe spot along the edges away from the other core hound that pats to the bridge and the maniac surger. Damaged it to start to keep aggro, then tamed away.

Yes, completely tameable. Thank you, Blizzard. I will love you forever for this.

Has anyone tried to tame the Green Core Hounds in Outlands? I think those Guys Pwn...

Kommentar von kaze950

I am so glad the more wolf-like white one can be tamed.

As a wolf/dog lover I was worried about which exotic pet to choose, but now the choice is clear.

I just hope there is a white-model one for horde players to have easy access to. Are they in Northrend or is it only Kurken and Omen?

Kommentar von 183581

I thought seeing T-rex's in battlegrounds would be scary...

Now i'm going to be eaten alive by a giant two-headed doggie...

Kommentar von whitedragon254

This is the reason why we dont have gnome hunters, the core hounds would mistake them for a chew toy after being tamed.

Kommentar von barak0

I would love to tame Omen, to bad he's a demon :(

Kommentar von mgp84

Any idea if Magmadar can be tamed? (2nd Boss of MC)

Kommentar von kaze950

Is there anything more than their special ability that makes these pets worth it? I would've thought exotic pets have better damage/health/armor bonuses, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

Kommentar von Ollias

Ok, so if you spec BM tame a core hound and then spec out to MM or S do you still get to keep the pet?

Taming an Ancient Core Hound 101.

Raid Make up:
51 pt BM Hunter (you)
Healer (preferably druid, but any will do)
Any Pet (optional if you have a druid)

Under no circumstances should your healer heal till step 4

Step 1:
Enter Molten Core near BRD by talking to Lothos if you are attuned or Green Raid portal inside BRD. This may seem obvious, but you would be surprised how many people do not know where Molten Core is anymore. Talk to Lothos to get the atunement quest before entering BRD, its always nice to have an easy atunement.

Step 2 With druid healer:
Dismiss your pet (not abandon). When you enter Molten core you will see 2 giants. On the right giants side, is a lava river and a ledge. Run past the giant and try to jump on the ledge. If you do not make it, do not fret. Get to land and Feign Death. Have the druid stealth and follow you. If at all possible, try to be on the ledge its not impossible to tame a core hound, just makes it easier. If the druid pulls agro, use http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=58984, it now works in combat. Ancient Corehounds see through stealth

Step 2 without a druid healer:
have your healer stand away from you as far as they can. Send your pet to the farthest mob it will go to. Your pet is going to die. While your pet clears the giants and agros a mob, have your healer hug the right wall and drop off the right side where the giant was. Again try to land on the ledge if you can This makes things much easier. You should fd at this point since the mobs your pet just agroed are now coming after you. Get some health and go to where the priest is and fd since again, a bunch of mobs will be trying to kill you.

Step 3:
follow the wall (whether you made it to the ledge or not) till you can not go any further. If you made it to the ledge, you can follow it till it ends and drop off with out agroing any mobs. if you didnt, you will need to send your pet far away, run around that corner and feign death. make sure your healer makes it around there before you do. Otherwise he/she may get agro and die. That area gives you the option to tame 2 Ancient Corehounds with out the risk of agroing any other mobs. Both of them pat, but only one actually pats in the path you will be in.

Step 4:
Build agro by shooting and attacking the core hound of your choice. You will actually have to be under his mouth to do any damage to him in melee range, but he still has the ability to attack you. Your healer should do light healing at this point, just keeping you alive, as long as you are not taming, the corehound wont hit you for too much. After you feel you have enough threat built, start the taming process. At this point, the corehound will hit you for about 2k each hit for about 6-7 hits. Your healer should be able to keep you alive. Without a healer and having only 9.5k hp, i could get to about 3-4 secs left before i died.

Step 5:
do /woot and /cheer because you now have your Red Core Hound that very few people on your server will have.

Just some things to note.
1. Red Corehounds have a burning ember sound when you tame them.
2. They also shake the screen when they walk. I think you can turn this off under your options for those that do not like the screen shake.
3. You do not have to feed your pet. Although he is unhappy, just spec http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=53187, it will probably take a couple mobs, but the pet will be happy afterwards.
4. You can not name this pet Princess, blizzard has the name reserved (i ended up naming mine Spike)

Taming the core hound in MC is soloable. I and a friend (he came up with the idea when no one would help him) did it on Illidan server Alliance side.

What you need:
Fire resist pot
Haste pot
Abacus of Violent Odds
Enough Resil to be crit immune
at least 10k hp
any other haste is helpful (but not needed)

As others have stated as you enter MC you can mis direct mobs to a throwaway pet and jump on the ledge to your right and feign there while your pet dies. Drink the resist pot. You now have one minute until you can use the haste pot with trinket. There are two core hounds you can tame...one pats by the ledge you are on and one that is up the path a bit. Either is fine but timing is critical.

Because the timing is so tricky it is best to bring several of each potion.... after the first few tries you well get the timing down and say hello to a new red core hound!

Kommentar von Kirima

As of patch 3.0.3 these pets no longer cause the screen to shake when walking.

Kommentar von 120774

I think these guys should be Tenacity pets. They just look huge and able to take loads of damage. Why not put ravagers in their place, warp stalkers in the ravagers place and core hounds in the WS place?

Kommentar von 267194

This is an out of the blue question, But r these core hounds' basically Cerberus's" The Guard Dog of Hell?

Kommentar von 290507

These guys do make very nice pets, their ability to slow casting time makes a nice BM ability to substitute for MMs silencing shots. they also look awesome.

Kommentar von 330903

the first time i took my hunter to tame the white core hound on azuemyst isle, there was about 6 other horde and 2 alliance waiting patiently for their turn to tame. So all up I was waiting about an hour, that includes the number of ganks involved. :'(...But it was worth it, its so cute and fluffy. :)

Kommentar von wacko

I think Uvurous in SV will more easier to catch than DAMN corehounds @ Molten core.....

Kommentar von 364783

Can some1 tell me whats best beast to teme: Ancient Core Hound, Core Hound, Core Rager, Magmadar, Spawn of Uvuros, The Beast, The Kurken, Uvuros?
And what level is Magmadar when you teme him?

Kommentar von 264991

I think.. with the Core Hound you now really can "Kill it with fire!" Much like the Dragonhawk.. though it's more anti-mage/healer so it seems to me like it would be a decent pvp pet to take out the pesky magic users that tend to make life difficult for anyone that gets caught by their spell.

Kommentar von 74005

Now with all pets at the same Damage, HP, and Armour, its just a question of which one you like best and the abillity it has. With Lava Breath, the Corehound is a Killer for all spellcasters in PvP.

Kommentar von 206160

Bite is melee range
and Lava Breath is 30 yard range.

with all abilities on auto - bite, lava breath, dash, charge etc

If I start my fight, will it fire lava breath first then go to melee, or will it dash and bite and breath?

just curious...

Kommentar von 362885

I just solo tamed him on a lvl70 hunter. I stacked as much stamina gear as I could find in the auction house. I didn't pay any attention to any other stat but stamina. I wound up with about 13k unbuffed when I was done.

Use the videos of people soloing the tame as a guide, they are very good and will get you through this. I waited until I was past the aggro point of the first two mobs outside the lava, but before the core hound's ledge, to take a moment and buff up. I used Scroll of Stamina VII, Flask of Fortification and Baked Manta Ray (+40 Haste and Stamina) while in Aspect of the Monkey. It's a good idea to target the core hound that moves onto the ledge as soon as possible so that you don't have to move around to do it. Once I was buffed, I waited for him to start coming down from the ledge. He will hit a point where he's within tame range, but still around that bend. As soon as you see him hit tame range, pop a Potion of Speed (500 Haste for 15 seconds), this brought my tame-pet down to 14.9 seconds. I pulled him with tame pet alone. He didn't break tame, and I was left with just over 1k hp when I was done.

Make sure you've brought meat for him!

EDIT: I should mention that taming him is not easy. I spent one afternoon getting attuned to MC (I didn't even have the Shadowforge Key). Then it took about 2 hours of trial and error before finally succeeding. The hardest part, I found, is getting your timing just right. Sometimes I couldn't make it past the mobs on the side of the lava. Another time I waited too long and aggro'd the Core Hound as he was coming down the ledge. I accidentally pulled another Core Hound that was behind me coming out of the tunnel. My advice is to be well stocked on buff items (because you might die more times than you expect to) and to not use them until you're sure you're in the right spot to tame. That way you haven't wasted them when a mob gets you. To take as little damage as possible from the giants at the start and the lava you have to swim through, a fire resistance pot and Deterrence are your best friends. However, through my own trials, I found that it was more successful to use Potion of Speed while you're taming rather than a fire resistance pot. Your mileage may vary.

where do you find them?

Linking to those who came here looking for the new 3.3 Authenticator Core Hound Pup.
This page here is about the hunter pet, the one I just linked is for the companion.

Kommentar von 524618

where can u tame one at? Im a lvl 14 night elf hunter and her name is Traciie.

Kommentar von 547908

Hey, just to let you know, I am currently a BM hunter at level 69 now, and I dont know about you guys, but my cunning pets do way more dps than ferocity pets now due to the Wolverine Bite cunning pets can now get. In randoms with some buffs, (like kings on me and might on my pet) on a boss i can pull around 1400 dps, and normally around 52-59% of my dps is my pet. I tested out a couple of cunning pets, and the ones that seem to the most damage is the Nether Ray, and its strange because its CD on its ability is 28 seconds. Strangely enough my Sporebat is one of my highest DPS pets, then followed by the Chimaera and then my raptor (which is my backup pet if the boss does alot of damage to pets.)

So I guess since the change on Wolverine Bite, I see cunning pets the #1 on dps again, but ferocity not much behind.

Kommentar von 265233

I love my core hound, but what would make it even better would be to be able to use them as a cooking fire!

Kommentar von OverlordAxefury

Kommentar von 430528

The Beast will lose his boss tag but the two new guys have it!

Kommentar von viva

Once you go core hound you just don't go back

Kommentar von 492609

Core Hounds no longer have the loud stomping noises for me =[

Kommentar von WorldsEndTavern

Chromaggus can be tamed. Yeah, that guy. The one that wiped your raid. Alot. Now you can wipe other peoples raids.
Sadly he does not turn raid bosses into dragonkin to kill things.
Or freeze people.
Yeah, no curses at all.
Just Chromaggus.
The guy that wiped you.

Kommentar von 438574

Why does it say that "but unfortunately only Uvuros knows Ancient Hysteria."
Pets are standardized, and yes other Green Core Hounds have the ability.

Kommentar von 835647

Just tamed The Kurken didn't even know he existed in that cave til i read it here he is so awesome in looks but other posters are correct my core hound pup makes more noise than this guy. wonder why bliz did that? havent tried him in battle yet i will.

Kommentar von 952139

It looks like Blizzard is giving away core hounds to players who add secure authentication to their accounts.

Kommentar von 1022530

i llove the core hound series is my favorite for the beast mastory Hunter especially with the Demon Stalker Transmog. set It looks amazing im still working on my Boots and Belt of the set im about to get the chest peice from Area 52 in Neatherstorm for 1000 honor points ive also got a matching bow to go with it that i got from Black temple it is a Crossbow that looks great on my screen :) Fruityfetus Dentarg lvl 70 Beast mastory Hunter Alli

Kommentar von Reignac

The drakeadon skin is no longer unique to Chromaggus. A level 49 rare, Chromehound, spawns in Blackrock Mountain near the BRS summoning stone and walks in a circular path along the main chamber. I camped Chromehound for about 2 hours but its respawn may be longer than that, I don't know how long he was gone before I showed up.

Kommentar von grouchomarx

If you are looking for a red core hound: no need to go to MC. Just start the dailies for Molten Front and then there are red ones to be found in Hyjal!

Kommentar von 1075847

I use a core hound and have gave it the Cunning spec: I find this a great combo as it doesn't seem to lose health constantly and it is still as strong as ever: just my point of view/advice for you guys ^^

Kommentar von iM7MDz

FYI only BM hunters can tame and control this pet, if u r a SV or MM dont bother and try to tame it.

Kommentar von 927232

well blizz its 5.2 so when are we going to be able to tam the void terror i know that im not the only hunter that wants one so please for the love of god come on make them tamable

Kommentar von WokkaD

This is all very good about taming them. How the heck do you kill them so they stay dead when there's more than one after you?
The presence of more than one resurects the dead one. This appears to happen even if they are both dead. It also happens when you drag the mob of them away from the dead one :(
The only way i can see is to skin them. This is difficult when you're solo & busy fighting them :( ... or if you're not a skinner.

Collected them all as BM coming back in to WOD just to stampede with a pack of Core Hounds.

*checks for "Runty"*
nooooooo! :c

Kommentar von blueenvy17

There is also a yellow corehound, Gomegaz, that can be tamed before lvl 69 (I tamed on a lvl 57 worgen bm hunter). He is in Blasted Lands, walks a path along the NW edge of the Dark Portal, coords 52.6, 41.8.

Kommentar von Deltethnia

If you tame one of the corehounds from the packs in front of Magmadar it WILL reignite the packs of dead corehounds even after taming. Dismissing and resummoning does nothing. Exiting the raid and zoning back in needs research.
