if he kills you he does an unique emote "Zaricotl seems much calmer now that it has eaten the remains of (player name)"

Commento di Lordship

The bird is soloable by a lvl 56 combat rogue. Don't be afraid of the elite status. Evasion ftw

Commento di Jeremypwnz

im just wondering to anyone thats a hunter...... would this be a good pet to tame? because i used beast lore on him and it said tameable. what do u guys think?

Commento di Jeremypwnz

should i tame the beast with 300-450 damage, 8k health and 3k armor?

Commento di Mister6002

I just killed him ( Lvl 43 druid ) with a lvl 55, hard fight cause he hits hard ( about 0.5k)

Commento di 47965

He is SLOW. I'm a 38 Hunter, just kited him from spawn point to Loch Modan solo. Got him to half HP then a level 50 shadowpriest friend flew out to help finish him off quicker. I kited in circles around Thelsamar, no guards helped. Dropped a green.

Commento di 87015

Is this thing tamable?

Commento di kimsta

Sounds similar to "Quezacotl" a Bird-type Guardian Force in Final Fantasy 8.

Commento di 10334

This is a great-looking and very unique pet. A must-have for any collector :]

Commento di crowface28

solo'd as a 48 hunter. smoked my pet in like 30 seconds, and i'm beast mastery so that hurt. He was kitable though, with cheetah and cuncuss shots. long fight, and he dropped some whale cloak, so hrmph. w/e though, good challenge. verdant keeper's aim ftw

Commento di 97638

Kited him to Kargath, but no gaurds attacked...

Commento di MoonLite

Use Flash Bomb , works like a charm :)

Obtainable from nearby quest: Pearl Diving (quest also gives: Schematic: Flash Bomb )

Commento di Thottbot

Level 55++
866-1245 damage
3292 armor
7842 health

...

Oh, and Tameable :D

Commento di Thottbot

Blizzard must have nerfed this guy with the last update. 58 pally and soloed him without needing to heal. Crappy drops for being a 55+ though.

Commento di Thottbot

I saw him, and i couldn't resist trying to attack him as a 41 hunter. I just put on aspect of the cheetah and ran away while spamming arcane shot and serpent. You run out of mana but it'll regen enough for you to continue spamming serpent and arcane. I dragged him to kargath and spun him around the big hill infront of the kargath inn to get the guards to attack him. Eventually it gave me some nice exp and a lvl 53+ green helm + ironfeathers. It was fun :P

Commento di Thottbot

If I Read him correctly He didn't technically _solo_ it, He just got enough damage on it, as well as kited it to a place where NPC's were able to assist him to kill it, Think it was beautiffuly done

Commento di Thottbot

anyone know what ui hes using?

Commento di Thottbot

I was out killing some buzzards and he came up on me. After about 5 hits, I was pfficially owned. He hasn't seen the last of me.

Lvl 43 Druid

Commento di Thottbot

Hey guys,

I saw this on my L44 Belf hunter today in badlands, I started kiting it around while my pet was dpsing it and it died quite fast. Really easy to kite, doesn't move that fast! Btw it gave 1590 exp (rested ofc) and some eye patch with 36 nature spelldmg :)

Try it it's fun :D

Commento di Thottbot

Killed him as a level 44 hunter. I kited him pretty easily with aspect of the cheetah. Kited him north into the lower mob zone above and around the lake there. he flies just slower than cheetah, so you can run, stop, autoshot, run, stop, autoshot, etc. got ~1600xp and a Mighty Cloak of Intellect...thought it would be better for a ? Elite rare spawn :(

Commento di Thottbot

I saw him only once when my warrior was around lvl 40 and was mining in the area. He ate me up fast.

Commento di Thottbot

Me and my gf (both 43 hunters) kited him and killed him. Could've done it alone but would've taken a lot more time.

Commento di Thottbot

soloed this on my 56 lock today while leveling up my herbalism. not hard at all, just sent in my felguard and kept hitting it with spells. Had to fear once. Dropped a cloth headband.

Commento di Thottbot

Dropped him today, yes, he's a rare spawn. He dropped a lvl 53 green. Wasn't really worth the trek there.

Commento di Thottbot

Wanna tame this beast and is your lvl too low?

Tame:

Lord Condar (15-16 Rare, Loch Modan)
Dire Condor (18-19, non-rare, Redridge Mountains)
Roc (42-43, non-rare, Tanaris)
Fire Roc (43-45, non-rare, Tanaris)
Greater Firebird (46 Rare, Tanaris)
Searing Roc (47-49, non-rare, Tanaris)

You'll have exactly the same vulture with the same stat's(depending on the lvl) and dive rank 3 you can learn from other's.

Btw..... I never saw a rare that dropped a blue or purple item, only green item's.

Bliz should put more extra's on rare's.

Commento di Thottbot

stumbled across this guy today on my 45 hunter

he was doing 400 damage a pop to my elite cat, i'd say he's been revamped ever so slightly =P

Commento di Thottbot

Also when he 'eats' a player he isn't hungry any more and is not attack-on-sight.

Commento di Thottbot

saw him in badlands killed him and like always, as in all rare spawns, for me he dropped a %^&*ty mail green and some grays

Commento di Thottbot

Haha! :D
low lvl priests - dont even try :D
I tried to kill him with my lvl 44 shadow priest.. He resisted all shadow damage... o.O I dont know how it gonna work with someone who's higher lvl then me.. I was lucky and evaded him at the end when I had like 300hp :)

Commento di Thottbot

zaricotl seems to have calmed down a bit now that he has feasted on Moustagg's flesh...

i was so sad when i saw this :(

Commento di Thottbot

walking through badlands as a 33 tauren druid, prowling this bird came out of nowhere and crit me for 1528 (one hit kill)

Commento di Thottbot

After killing a player Zaricotl displays this emote: Zaricotl seems much calmer now that it has eaten the remains of <player name>.

For a short period after eating the remains of a player, Zaricotl will not aggro players unless attacked.

so, as u understand, he can be both Hostile and friendly!

Commento di Thottbot

I ran aross him at 36,65 in Badlands in the dustbowl, hovering around that area.

Commento di Thottbot

Level 41 pally trying to get off a couple more levels in the Badlands. I'm killing buzzards merrily. I look to my right.

? elite carrion bird. I look to my left. 45 elite giant/elemental thing.

Summon charger, SUMMON CHARGER!

I lived, but it's ridiculous Blizz would put a 55 elite in a 30-40 zone. I forget the name of the giant, but it was a rare elite.

Oh, and five minutes later I see a group of about 6 37-42 ogres running around. Everything was out to get me, apparently.

Commento di Thottbot

i was farming mithril and there he was... i wondered if i should kill him (im a lvl 555 Shadow Priest)... tried anyway and killed him very easy just had to fear once and mind flay... dropped the cloth headpiece

Commento di Thottbot

I was running thru badlands going to Kargath on my 38 hunter.I had just finished up one of the Princess Trapped quests when i saw this monster.I guess i targetteted him and then a wolf cause I swear i saw 39 elite rare.When I ran toward him to atk he turned around and killed the hell outta me.I tried to fein but it just made it easier for him.Wasnt happy so i came on my 70 shaman and killed him.Dropped a mail belt 11 agi and 12 stam.just hope that my hunter can use it by 50.

Commento di Thottbot

not a very good pet if ur wanting to tame i tamed him solo when i was lvl 57 did bad dmg and even worse drops if ur looking for a good pet around 55 go to winterspring and tame the frostsaber cubs

HAPPY HUNTING

zakk
lvl 60 (for the alliance)!

Commento di Allakhazam

He's so slow it's easy to just get out of his way.

Commento di Allakhazam

Just running around and exploring Badlands on my 57 lock (I kinda missed that zone on the appropriate lvl) I thought: "I hope I run into Zaricotl so I can teach him a lesson" and here I see him flying towards me! I saw him being a 55 elite and freaked out a bit (thought he was lower) but still attacked him with FG out. Doing all right till that coyote aggroes me and starts munching on me. Still managed to kill the bird anyways and then the FG took care of the coyote. got a green.

Commento di Allakhazam

Soloed him, 54 shaman. Dropped Swashbuckler's Eyepatch of the Wolf.

Not too hard for an elite

Commento di Allakhazam

i am a 53 rogue with very descent gear and i just couldnt kill him.

he crits fro around 200-300 mostly, ben when it's getting close and he is about to die, he parries gouges and kidney shots and crits for 600+.

i'll get him tomorrow when i'm 54 :)

Commento di Allakhazam

Zaricotl seems much calmer after eating the remains of Jukkis.

Commento di Allakhazam

I tamed him today. Barely, died twice then have to use a dmg absorber for the first hit to make it. Other then the cool red with black, hes nothing special. ATK speed 2.0, dps was around 46 and 2800ish hp with 3200ish ac at lvl 55. This bird hits hard, hit me from 300-700+ dmg.

lvl 60 Hunter,

Commento di Allakhazam

so i was just a hapie lil lvl 39 and i was hopping around the badlands lokking for BK to tame and then BAM! dis huge lvl ? red bird pops up and four-shots me and im all like "WTF?1" and so i ask on general "anyone wanna kill dis bird he drops greens (i thot he was a rare, even if hes not he has a good drop rate)" aqnd noone answered so i havent gotten my revenge yet but when im 60 ill be the one eating the remains of Zaricotl MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
or maybe ill let my pet eat the remains, ill bet that will make him hapie

Commento di Allakhazam

Happened back into the Badlands on some other business.
Remembered my "old mate" who'd spanked me on previous occasions.

This time he found I was 56 and specced up.

I'm eating him for dinner.

(found him at 56,60)

Commento di Allakhazam

lol i "found" him on my lvl 36 hunter and he came for me... he killed my pet but i got away, MAN I WAS ANGRY. I logged on my shaman and BOOM smacked his stupid @#$%^ ass to the ground!... got a green req lvl 50 item and ALOT of grey $%^&.

Commento di Allakhazam

getting close to lvl 55 and just wondering if taming it is anything but a waste of time. i know most elite pets are not special other than i color when they are tamed(excpt of course for king bang'lash, the snarler and the like) so does he have any special abilities when tamed/

Commento di Allakhazam

i dono why people are conplaining, hes not even hostile.

soloed with 55 hunter - pet kin bangalash

Commento di Allakhazam

As you can see in the picture, at one time he was very hostile and aggresive... when leveling my first hunter right after release, he made questing in the badlands suck horribly. A guildmate told me now he's not hostile anymore, and it made me sad. :P

Commento di Allakhazam

Saw this bird on Shatttered Hand while I was running toward the stone-whatever troggs.
I was like WTF? Why is he here with 40s and 41s?
Anyone who trains here in Badlands watch out for him.
Couldnt even tell what level he was with my lv 40 hunter.

Commento di Allakhazam

Commento di Allakhazam

If you want to kill this guy you should know:
His speed is around 105%, so you need speed increase to kite him.

He hitted my 43 priest (10% damage reduction) for a little less than 500, you can easily go melee if you are around his level.

Commento di Allakhazam

Im a level 58 Orc Warrior. I was riding through the Badlands when Zaricotl started smacking me, I was thinking if I should ignore it and run but then it dazed me so I killed it and it dropped a Stockade Pauldrons! I LOVE THIS BIRD! ^_^

Commento di Allakhazam

I solod him as a 52 hunter, hes doesn't have that much hp or armor he just hits REALLY REALLY HARD! LOL!

Commento di Allakhazam

Oh my.. Just solo'd this guy at LV39.
Kited him all the way to Thelsamar, no guards helped but I had a clear path.

Got 721 EXP for the kill and a pair of LV50 plate boots.

I kited it in a big circle, using poison, conc and the occasional normal shot. He has such a slow persuit speed that you pet can keep hitting him and you can keep kiting while using Aspect of the Cheetah. Just remember to keep tagging him so he doesn't return to The Badlands.

Edited, Mon Apr 24 23:02:07 2006

Commento di Allakhazam

I trained him today as well. He has Dive Rank 3, the highest rank for dive in pets.

Dive Rank 3 = Increases movement speed by 80 for 15 seconds.

Commento di Allakhazam

ok guys im a 51 hunter and i soloed thats right soloed him using my beast spec i just used auto atk and let beast and my beast skills do the rest i had to heal beast and he died but that was at 1% health

Commento di Allakhazam

dont tame it is a waste. attack speed is 2.00 kill it and hope it drops something good

Commento di Allakhazam

is this mob rare or is it a quest involved bird that allways is there?

Commento di Allakhazam

I ran into him couple days ago while riding through the area in the middle of the map between dustwind gulch, and valley of fangs. It was around 5:30 am pacific time on the uldaman server. I mustve been lucky because barnabus was in the very same area. I actually spotted barnabus on my radar, and hopped off to tame him when zaricotl chewed me up pretty good. Man, he is the size of a dragon ! maybe ill try to tame him at 55 or so, lol.
p.s. i still managed to tame barnabus on the next try

Commento di Allakhazam

i never kited him at all i stayed in 1 spot and let pet tank
at 51 he was 55

Commento di Allakhazam

WTFPWNED him with my lvl 52 holy priest:)

Commento di Allakhazam

easially down with my 59 hunter without losing 1 hp, even thou my pet got pretty bad wounded.... did just drop a lvl30 something green item

Commento di Allakhazam

Omg this guy is easy. I mean, he only hit me for about 100 (w/o shield) and he dropped a SWEET blue (Orb of Deception). Soo happy to get, it made my day.

/cheer at Zaricotl

Just because an item isn't listed on the item list, doesn't mean it will never drop off 'em...

Commento di Allakhazam

I am a 58 night elf hunter with a 57 gorilla for a pet which has close to 6000 armor and I have bestal wrath ability for him. Anyone know if I can solo this bad boy? I heard he hits hard.

Commento di Allakhazam

me and my friend stummbled onto him and he chewed us a new one as he we fed him. We rezzed and decided for revenge. We are both lvl 40 hunters and the bird hit the floor without any trouble dropped a really nice green mail helm for us later one! ^^

Commento di Allakhazam

came across him as a 52 marksman hunter while I was visiting the horde dragonscale leatherworker. saw the silver dragon, thought "cool - rare mob, I'll have a piece of that".

tried the standard "send the pet in, let it get aggro & then shoot holes through it". Normally works fine against a 55 at my level & spec. After I'd finished dying, I looked at him properly & the mouse-over description came up as an elite beast, despite the silver dragon (?). Go figure - I'm fairly sure none of the other silvers I've fought have been described as 'elite' on mouse-over, so presumably he's one of those rare exceptions.

anyway.. i came back & decided to kite him instead, the words "phat loot" hovering around in the front of my mind. was going fine until I accidentally ran through an elemental while I had aspect of the cheetah on & got myself dazed (he's fast - you want to have a movement enhancer on or he'll catch up with you, plus he was significantly better at resisting my wing clip than a 70th level warrior I'd been hitting during a PVP free-for-all a while prior).

third time lucky. kited him halfway across the badlands to just outside Kargath, where I'd been intending to let the guards deal with him, but by which point I'd killed him myself (lets have a quick round of applause for DoT shots).

out of which I got a bunch of junk and some Wanderer's Bracers of Power. what a gip. other than the warm fuzzy glow of killing a rare (elite) 55, he's not really worth killing unless you're such a low level it's already an educational exercise in how to make the perfect kite (cos it'd be an absolute bugger of a job if the standard mobs in the area routinely attacked you).

oh, and apparently the quest item he used to drop exists no longer, and from my experience that's true - nothing but the one green & garbage greys. and i got 1754 xp, but 877 of that was rested bonus.

Commento di Allakhazam

Kited from Badlands all the way to Dun Morogh as a 34 dwarf hunter. Looted a lvl 50 cape of the monkey which I sold for 8g!

Commento di Allakhazam

Haven't you seen my movies? WoW, that was a good one. It ate me! A freakin buzzard ate me!

Edited, Jun 13th 2007 4:25pm by Wuggums

Commento di Allakhazam

Killed as a 49 Hunter. I had a 48 priest who was helping me but pulled hate and died within seconds and then she or he left the party so it was just me and my pet for the whole fight. I kited it around the little mountain a couple times before it died and it dropped some Green Shoulders and to my surprise i get the greed/need window and im like "wtf i dont have a party" so i click need and that stupid priest who left the party won the need roll when he/she wasnt even in my party and then they put me on their ignore list.

pretty stupid...

Commento di Allakhazam

He shouldn't be a pain in the butt, he's not agressive.

Commento di Allakhazam

Not aggressive my foot...was riding through the Badlands (lvl 42 Warrior) when all of a sudden this buzzard and a wolf attacked me. Didn't think anything of it...figured I'd just shoot right by 'em. I was dead just as my feet hit the ground as I fell from my mount...got the message "Zaricotl seems much calmer now that it has eaten the remains of Guderian." Well, as long as he's calmer now I guess it's all right then... ;)

For anyone who is interested, dropped 2 greens from 1 kill -

Imperial Red Pants:

Unexciting battle with a 70 Mage, as you might imagine. lol

Commento di Allakhazam

i was running through badlands to see if there was an alliance camp and i cba to fight the mobs and i was running and got killed then i suddenly saw
Zaricotl has now calmed down that he has eaten the remains of me i was like wtf? is that a player? and i checked on me macro /find and /who and found out it was a stinking buzzard! i was pissed :P

Commento di Allakhazam

I got a few lvls on this guy as a 60 hunter but seriously think you guys are making this guy sound harder than he is. Downed no prob dropped a green belt :(

Note: didnt notice any special abilities other than the obvious harder elite hits. Was hitting my scorpid between 150's mid 200's

Commento di Baracuda

Killed at level 40 as a hunter, drop was not worth it.

Commento di Eiskalt

Kited and killed as a 40 hunter. I ran him towards Ironforge, and he instantly despawned without letting me loot. :( Will update if a GM is able to do anything, but maybe be careful where you kite to.

Commento di squiretoad

The first time I saw him (luckily in the distance), I wondered if he was tameable since he's a really colorful bird. Glad to hear it, a new target to replace my current carrion bird at 55 or so if I still have him.

Commento di OCretribution

Is there any point to this mob, or is it just something for hunters to tame?

Commento di maglen69

There is ZERO reason a lvl 55 silver elite should be in a lvl 40 zone.
