Catching Kirix

Hi all icon_biggrin I'm new on this site, but I've heard it's the best for Hunters so I'm going to throw my question out here:

 

Is there anyone that could help me get Kirix? I would really appreciate it! I'm at the Molten Front, at the location where he should spawn. I've been here for hours but still no sign of him, and I'm so scared that someone will get him/kill him icon_sad

 

I'm Pullarn on Twisting Nether btw.

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!

I tamed Kirix this afternoon. He was a major pain in the ass.

I highly recommend stacking haste for this tame. He chews through hit points like nobody's business.

Taming post will be up sometime this weekend.

Nice! Congratz Garwulf!

 

So, I found Kirix yesterday. I tried to tame him using the Disengage approach, but I died… With 0.5 sec left on Tame Beast -.-

So I ran over there again, and saw another Hunter taming him and succeeded…

 

And today I found Deth'tilac. It was amazing; I started attacking and were so happy… Until another Hunter came. He started taming right away (even though Deth'tilac's buff were up). Made me so stressed wondering if he would be able to tame it before me. But I looked it up and saw that you had to take him down to 17 mil HP. So we struggled a bit trying to take him down to that amount of health. But since we had to kite him we had to run around the area, so player after player showed up and wanted a taste of the action. It ended up as a pet to another Hunter… I raged so hard. Why doesn't other Hunters have any respect to one another? Goddamn stealer!!!!!!!!!!

 

So the day sucks atm… I'm so sad…

 

Can anyone tell me the exact percent health and amount you have to take him down to please?

Advanced grats to you Pullarn. Speaking from experience, I can say that you’ll get Deth’tilac when you least expect it. Good luck!

 

BTW, earlier today, I watched a NElf hunter try to tame Kirix. She always failed at the last second. Her solution was to bring out a Core Hound, cast Ancient Hysteria, dismiss… then proceeded with the tame-disengage-tame-deterrence process. Try it out. The closest Core Hound would be Gomegaz at the Blasted Lands (via the portal at The Drag; then to go back, either hearth, or go in the Dark Portal to get to the Org port on the right).
