Shadowbat!
November 12, 2007
I wanted to try out a bat rather than an owl (mostly because Bats have bite, which will help dump focus quicker). Unfortunately, the only tamable level 70 bat are the Shadowbats in the Servants’ Quarters in Kara.
So I bought some invisibility pots with the intention of stealthing past the spiders into the bat room and taming one. It didn’t work as well as described because the bats wouldnt pat out far enough to let me tame 1 without being ganged up on.
I died once and at that point a new guildy messaged me, who had just got his Kara key. I said I’d give him a tour of Kara while he was there, because he’s never seen it before. So I took him to show him where all the bosses are (it’s already clear for this week so no problems with aggro). Then after maiden I thought I was going to opera but took a wrong turn. And where did I end up? In a back door to the bat room in the animal bosses!
Having an extra hunter was a big help because of an extra freezing trap, and after only 1 death I was the proud owner of a level 70 shadowbat.
The great thing is it’s almost twice the size of my owl, which means the tanks and melee DPSers are going to hate me even more than before, due to screeching noises and frickin’ gigantic wings. Can’t wait for this week’s Kara

I have Ressin the Needler on 3 of my 4 Hunters. As he grows it does get to really being annoying in PvP especially. Happy annoying. Hopefuly your raid tank can adjust to the flapping wings.

I am glad that you are enjoying your bat! Perhaps I should get one myself some day, but I hate the fact that bats eat fungus and fruits.. just like my gorilla, it’s a pain just to find the vendor.

I used to think the same thing Tensun, but now I’m level 70 and hang out in shattrah all the time, the fruit vendor is as easy to find as any other vendor.
That is the main reason I didn’t tame a bat at low levels though.
I tried to tame blind hunter but he wasn’t spawned any time I went into RFK, so after that I gave up.

I prefer the ZG bat and have had him for a while… surprisingly, he has more armor (11k+ unbuffed) and does good dam @ 143 DPS… not to mention the interrupts from fast attack and screech… he’s a mage eater

All bats are the same now, the only difference between them is their color.
