Catching Kirix - Hunter Pet Discussion - Hunter Forums

Welcome to the Lodge, Pullarn.

I’m offering two approaches:

Easy Way:

With a Core Hound, stand on a floating rock. Once Kirix is almost in range, cast Ancient Hysteria, dismiss your Core Hound, then Tame.

Pro: easy and fast

Con: too easy and fast and not worth the challenge; could be a glitch

Awesomesauce Way:

Be in Aspect of the Wild. Tame Kirix. Wait until he does Bouncing Charge (he tosses you up into the air). At the peak of that toss, cast Disengage. Once you land, wait until Kirix casts Magmatoxin – take note of his cast bar. Halfway that cast, cast Deterrence and immediately follow that up with a Tame Beast. (I suggest also taking Potion of Speed and Basilisk Liverdog to buff Haste).

Pro: you’ll feel proud that you’ve tamed Kirix in a spectacular way

Cons: lots of room for error: you might Disengage into a wall, or worse, off the edge. Needs perfect timing to execute.

Good luck!

I think I'll go with the Disengage approach. I don't have a core hound anyway.

But does anyone know how long spawn time Kirix has?

Right on!

The new spiders and spirit beasts have a spawn time of 6-17 hours. At most 3 spiders can be up at any one time. 

Skarr and Karkin have a spawn time of 2-5 hours. However they share the same spawn spots and spawn locations.

Good luck!
