Ive heard some people talking about this and since I havent really been bothered to look out for this "premade" pet, could anyone share some knowledge about where it is and (if applicable) how to cap it. Im not a newbie, i know HOW to cap it in theory, but if its anything like the Salke Fur Friend fiasco, then could you just tell me about it? thanks

I'm pretty sure there's one in Pongmei Valley, but you have to get there before the Yeti's charm it, there was a guide written in this forum a little while ago on how to tame it..

i made several runs out there before i let my lvl 20 dire snow wolf go, i didnt see any white tigers. i saw plenty of orange lvl 15 elder or dire (i forget which), but no whites. I settled with charming a level 5 white tiger just west of the southern exit of tanglewood copse. I then leveled it to dire in about 2 hours and 20 minutes in Scoundrel's Rise (north of the Gates of Kryta in Tyria). I used the following build
13 Beast Mastery - 12+minor
13 Expertise - 9 + mask + superior
rest in wilderness survival (forget how much)

Enraged Lunge
Brutal Strike
Predator's Pounce
Poisonous Bite
Troll Unguent
Symbiotic Bond
Comfort Animal
Charm Animal

The first time i went through I got it to level 10 (in one run) after completely clearing the area, the second time got it to level 12 and probably around 75-85%, and i forget if i was able to get it to dire in the 3rd run or not, but if it wasnt the 3rd then i didn't have to go far for in the 4th to get dire. Just attack a creature once and let your pet do the rest with poisonous bite then alternate between predator's pounce, brutal strike, and enraged lunge. While symbiotic bond is up and using predators pounce, you shouldn't have to use comfort animal. The only thing to worry about is the level 17 blight fighters with putrid explosion, once you kill one blight fighter, run back a few steps to get out of the range (and hopefully your pet gets out too). Just keep troll unguent when fighting them as well. This may not be the best way to level but it's what i do for a controled evolution (i've had unevolved pets before due to uncontrolled evolutions and was rather dissappointed).

Ahhh my bad, got my tigers mixed up, thanks for pointing that out. Guess you gotta start from level 5...

skills: whirling defence, charm animal, you will not use ANYTHING else

max out beast mastery and expertise.

need a +15 energy stuff and a vampiric weapon

get out of a town, find a resurection shrine whith a pet camping on it. make sure the pet is ON the shrine, and not walking in circles around it.

make sure that there is no other mobs colse by

step 1: take off your armor, equip the vampiric weapon
step 2: attak the pet, but dont kill it!!!
step 3: let it kill you ALOT of times. the vampiric weapon will speed up the process.
step 4: go to sleep, leave the game runing, you will be resurected on shrine all the time with a pissed off pet
step 5: wake up, take a cofee, and look at the screen. at this point you will be getting attaked by a lvl 20 dire pet.
step 6: Equip the +15 energy stuff, put back your armor
step 7: use whirling defence and charm animal

result: you have a lvl 20 Dire pet of your choise with no work

this is how i got my Dire white tiger. i didnt actually go to sleep, i just went to cook. so when i came back it was lvl 17, but still good, cuz they dont change after lvl 15.. so i just toke it to tombs to mae it lvl 20

Lol maria certainly a funny way to lvl your pet

Now ... wont the guards at the shrines in cantha kill the tiger tho ?

Why exactly do you need +15 energy stuff tho ?

Wolydarg · May 31, 2006, 12:48 PM // 12:48

simple solution, kill the guards =D

That's an awesome way to find a pet, can you pull the animals there or do you need to rezone constantly until you find one camping a shrine?

when i did that i ran to a shrine with no guards, away from a HzH.

and u need the +15 energy, for when you need to charm. the thing is that with 60dp you end up with like 10 energy left, and before charming(10e), i ran whirling defence(10e), so the DIRE lvl 20 pet doesnt kill me while i charm it, cuz it takes a few seconds.

actually, even a plain white +10 stuff will do, but i just had my tarppig stuff equiped

btw, cant give me credit for this. i got the trick from Verona Span and then my Guild leader who gave me more tips

if you pull the pet, when you die, during the 10 secs before you resurect the pety runs to its original place, and you have to pull it evrey time. so just rezone before you find one ON the shrine, then go to sleep

There is a Level 15 elder white tiger it is outside of Jade Quarry(Kurzick) down the ramp,BUT there is a ranger boss that charms it once you see it.

Ranger Rog · Jun 01, 2006, 08:07 AM // 08:07

This was my post explaining how to get a lvl15 Tiger or Crane outside of Matuu keep - http://tinyurl.com/qm2cg
These are the standard orange Tigers though.

May I know where I can easily find a rez shrine with charmable pet?

Thanks

go outside HzH, south side. (Fernande or something)

as you go out die right away. wen you rez, you will rez at a diffrent shrine far away with no guards and a tiger(i got no clue why, but use it before it gets nurfed)

at that shrine theres always a white tiger walking around. sometimes he spams ON the shrine, sometimes far. you gotta map till you get him ON the shrine, and not NEXT to it.

You make me sad that i charmed a level 5 white tiger and leveled it to dire the hard way the day before you posted your way...but mad props nonetheless

Sagaris · Jun 03, 2006, 03:43 PM // 15:43

Damn... I seriously hate that tiger, after 30/40 times it still hasn't spawned on the shrine. I'm still going to get it though.

Sagaris · Jun 03, 2006, 04:06 PM // 16:06

Now I've got it to lvl 7, nearly 8. Downside is that I have to lure it sometimes... cause it wanders off. Ah well.. gues I'll have to stay behind my pc then.

Ok, this is really weird. It used to be South-East of the portal, before I attacked, and now it always runs North-East. Towards the Dredges. Really weird.

*edit, just turned lvl 11. God this is boring. :P

*edit, finally. lvl 15. And Dire. This guide rocks socks. Big time!

Horacer77 · Jun 04, 2006, 04:26 AM // 04:26

I got my Dire White Tiger, I it did right outside of HzH. I just ran out and see if there was a tiger close to the shrine. When there was I just drug 2 mob groups into kill the gaurds (note this though if you dont watch the tiger while you are rezzing the tiger will get stuck behind the npc giving the supply quest. When this happens just run over and get him to move or continue hitting you,he will unstuck), when the gaurds was dead and mobs clear the area I just started the charm and moved to rez shrine cancelling the charm. I proceeded as outlined above. Other than the lil glich I mentioned this works like a charm. Thanks for the info.

m0gden · Jun 04, 2006, 09:30 PM // 21:30

Yeah it worked well the first time. I came back from watching Big Trouble in Little China to see that I error=7'd. My tiger was level 18 when I left too! I'm sitting at a level 17 Tiger right now though it doesn't say dire or anything. I'm tempted to just cap him now due to boredom.
