Tamed him today. He hits for 700-900 every 2 seconds, so I had to try a couple of times. Immune to traps, slowing/stun effects etc, so no freeze trap or conc shot before you start to tame.

I had 6350 hp when I tamed him, and I wouldn't have made it if he hadn't missed on the first attack. Stay as far away as possible, preferrably behind something so it'll take as long as possible before he gets to you.

Pull him with a scorpid sting, every chance of him missing increases your chances of taming him. Use any stamina buff you can get, put on as much stamina gear as possible.

Good luck!

As stated this spider has the body of Maexxna, but the skin tone is slightly different. Being a spider, it can only learn very limited abilities and not having a form of dash is weak in PVP.

It's raw stats "out of the box" are:

275 STA -- 373 including my STA which equalled 4846 HP
272 AP -- 455 including my AP which equalled 114.6 DPS
5028 Base Armor

This put her far above my Ravager as far as Armor/HP. Probably a bug, but when hovering over it's stamina the tooltip reflects the following: "Increases health by 14200". If only... ;D

: Stats are with BM hunter talents -- +10% HP / +20% Armor / +20% Damage / +20% Attack Speed

If you want to know how to tame this spider EASILY, party up with a druid and have them put it to sleep, the tame it, easiest taming ever.

Kommentar von 23143

This spider may be the creepiest mob in Warcraft. He (or she?) has his own unique sound effects, which put the normally creepy spider effects to shame.

He may kill you, but you should try fighting him just so you can hear the noises. Unnerving.

Kommentar von Drakkul

She so far is not immune to fear dont know of some of the other ccs,

Easy to solo-kill as a ret pally. Just beat on him and heal yourself w/o shielding once or twice before you pop the bubble and bandage-->mana pot if needed. Dropped nothing for me tho.

Kommentar von odinsgrudge

Just soloed it as a 65 holy pally. Didn't drop much, few silver and a grey item

Kommentar von 42935

Deathskitter is killable with a frost mage with water elemental. Summon the elemental, run about 20 yards away, then sit there and take a beating while you frostbolt it. When you're at 50% health, iceblock and it will chase after your elemental, getting you some distance again. This can be done twice with cold snap, and is a technique used to kill many elites and bosses that normally are impossible to CC.

Kommentar von 43438

The easy way for any hunter to tame a pet solo is to tame one that has decent stats in the local area, get it so its happy, then ust the pet to take down the selected mobs health that you want to tame. When you have the target down to about 20% abandon your new temporary pet and start taming the new target pet.

Not sure if he has been changed since release, but I just killed him on my rogue and he WAS stunnable. Hits damn hard and has a lot of HP though, I didn't escape with too much extra HP. However I am a full sub spec ATM as the rogue is mainly a pvp toon. Combat I likely could have dropped him quickly.

Kommentar von Shiza

immune to CC - hard as cloth

Kommentar von Brandstone

Not immune to Wyvern sting, tamed her today as level 64 with wyvern sting, and frost trap halfway between us. Watch her patrol path and you can set the frost trap pretty effectively before wyvern stinging. Only hit me a few times, but hit pretty hard.

Kommentar von 36035

killed as 64 fire mage no problem. just blink and fireblast.

mae sure to have best gem up though cuz he will eat through ur hp. kiting him to allerian may help.

Kommentar von 66075

Soloed as a level 66 elemental shaman with earth elemental easily. Picked up 2 adds and took them out as well. Just had to throw one or two heals on the elemental throughout.

No point to it, but did it anyways.

Kommentar von 115582

Was easy to kill as 66 Dwarf hunter, just kited into allerian stonghold FD and then nuked to desired level.

Kommentar von ThaEzzy

Just came by it as a 70 rogue, it can definitely be stunned because I killed it without losing a single bit of HP so by no stretch a tough mob for rogues if you want to fight it. Yes, it is rather creepy though.

Kommentar von Raous

Bah. Tamed him but died of poison 2 sec later ^^

Kommentar von 126019

Solo'd as a 70 arcane/fire mage, not much of a tactic apart from a big nuke and a bit of luck because he hits so hard. I put on arcane power and hit him with a Pyroblast followed by another instant pyroblast, cast scorch x5 and then hit him with a blast wave, and kept hammering scorch throughout the duration. I had to keep up mana shield and then replenish my mana with a pot, didn't need any health pots. Still left me on low HP despite having full spellfire/spellstrike set.

Kommentar von toreador

Killed him as a 70 shadow priest. Just casted PW: shield, VT, SW:P, VE, mind blast, SW:D, mind flay, repeat (Obviously casting pain and vt when they're ran out).
Lost about 3k health. Spell dmg: 1093. Hadn't tried him before.

Kommentar von Skelic

I soloed him easily as a level 66 enhancement shaman. I was just running towards the Bone Wastes as I accidentally agroed him. I decided to give a shot because I always enjoy a good fight.

He was surprisingly easy - I can't believe he is "so hard" for a lvl70 epic mage as kikki described there..

Anyways. I landed a Mana Spring Totem and a Searing Totem - nothing else. Had to heal alot, used Gift of the Naaru and Shamanistic Rage. The poison is a big damagefactor, but gladly we shamans can clean it off.. Ofcourse dropped nothing else than a Dripping Spider Mandible, but the fight was fun - and easy.

Kommentar von Garon132

Its stats once i tamed it were the following -
146 Strength
97 Agility
395 Stamina (275 + 119)
31 Intellect
86 Spirit

Attack Power - 686 (272+414)
Damage - 183 - 212 (DPS: 98.5)
Spell Bonus 183
Armor 6328 (4991+1337) - and lol @ 1337

I only tamed it for fun lol

Kommentar von OhTeeSee

Not for any known quest on live as of 2.4.3

Kommentar von Malanna

Very easy kill. I killed him with my 70 rogue using Evasion, Preperation, then Evasion again. When i killed him i was left at about half health

Kommentar von arkov

Same drop rate as the regular mobs for Netherweb Silk, so don't bother taking him out if you are farming.

Kommentar von 231610

Tamed him today...had a pali to heal me...got some trouble with the aggro...died once...after that i've put aspect of the monkey + immolation trap to keep aggro...easy as cake ^^

Kommentar von 63375

Not stealthed anymore as atleast of expansion patch.

Im sure it used to be stealthed, since i got a huge shock from running into it once

Kommentar von nihau93

solo 67 dru, for what quest is that mob?

Kommentar von 423211

Found him/her ? at 53,64,

Kommentar von Thottbot

tamable, looks VERY nice. immune to freezing trap, so this is a challenge, hits like a rock.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Yeah, the whole frost trap immunity is a pain. Make sure you clear the area of baddies, Aspect of Monkey, equip any damage bubble trinkys you may have. Pull with Scorpid sting to reduce his blows, hit the bubble and get to work. First time was a wild pull, had to FD. Second was a race, he won with a 1700 crit in the end =/. FINALLY got him third try with 250 hp left. I'm a 64 with Rank 13 gear. Probably a little less stressful with better gear.

Kommentar von Thottbot

http://www.wowhunterpets.info/pet/Spider_Orange-Black

So, you want this model of spider?

Either you tame a level 64 elite who hits like a truck or you tame a level 17-18 then level him up. Heh...

Kommentar von Thottbot

haha sounds like you're selling a special edition sports car.

Kommentar von Thottbot

LOL, this pet definitely stands out amongst the other ones. He is hard to miss :)

Kommentar von Thottbot

If you like the look of this spider because he looks so cool, don't waster your time trying to tame him. In the Blades-Edge mountains there are identical non-elite spiders that are stealthed a bit north of the horde base. These are 66-67 but will be a heck of a lot easier to tame.

Kommentar von Thottbot

The stealthed spiders in Blade's Edge Mountains are the same "style" as Deathskitter but they do not have the same look. Deathskitter is Brown and Orange. The spiders in BEM are Black/Yellow/Red. Deathskitter looks much nicer IMHO.

I tamed him at Level 65 and had a Druid friend throw all her HoT's on me before I started. Worked Great.

Kommentar von Thottbot

A hunter channeling the tame pet spell CAN get some assistance so long as the agro does not change from the hunter. While you cannot have someone healing you (since that person will almost certainly take agro from doing it), you CAN tame a sheeped or sleeped animal. I suggest pulling with distracting shot (in case of a CC resist) and have a mage friend sheep it, or a druid friend sleep it.

pull with distracting shot
start taming
have friend sheep or sleep
have friend re-sheep/sleep early and especially if the tame fails.

Kommentar von Thottbot

It may look cool in the wild, but thats the only place this pet is any good. He's does a little bit below average damage which is acceptable if the pet is good looking. The problem though is that when you tame it he shrinks to about 1/4 of the size in the wild, he actually looks almost comical, he's so small. Not worth the effort imo.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Just tamed this after 4 deaths with a priest guildie. Prayer of healing plus bubble. Had monkey on, didn't do much good. AOW might have been better to cut some of the heavy poison damage. With my under 6k health it was a major race, I won with 380 HP left in the tank.

It hits for 700 + and critted me for 1300 once.

Sure did shrink a lot. Might trade it in on the red one a bit later. Spiders do a decent bit of damage and last OK with a BM build.

Probably not as useful as a flying noodle with spammable lightning breath, but different at least.

If you're looking for something more immediately useful, the blue widows nearby come with the highest level of bite. You ought to tame one of those first if you haven't learned that skill yet. Oh, and FYI, go grab a scorpid from the bone flats too -- you'll get the highest version of claw from them.

Kommentar von Thottbot

OK, the sound this critter makes may be worth the price of admission. It's a really loud, creepy growl, sounds more like a messed-up lion in a cave. Can't wait to sic it on people in a BG and see the response.

Kommentar von Thottbot

I died 6 times before I got it right. I have a lock guildie with me. This is what I did:

1> Aspect of the wild
2> Lock cast Curse of Weakness +Amplify
3> Cast Scorpid Sting
4> Tame that bithc

She got me down to about 300 hp before I got her. She's so cool! She's got that screechy scream thing that terrifies me.

yeah she's pretty small, but she is creepy as all hell.

Pretty good stats w/o training, too.

Kommentar von Thottbot

I was able to solo this with no special items, though there is a bit of luck, pray for no crits.

Use a obstacle to your advantage. The spider walks pass a very large stone. You can stand out of line of sight and tame through the rock. You'll get to about 1/4 done or more before it gets to you.

Also, there is a large tree on the north side of the large stone. You can 'climb' the west side and just barely tag it requiring the spider to go all the way around the tree. It buys you one, maybe two hits.

I didn't use any shots, just aspect of the wild.

Kommentar von Thottbot

The advantage you gain from this animal:

- cool look
- it starts with 0 trainings point
instead of approx. -28 as usually beasts would have at this level ;)

same look as
Myst Leecher Lv 17-18

for solo taming use aspect of the monkey , maybe the other ice trap which only slows down.

Maybe its a good idea to get rid of your gear, to save repair cost? During taming you have no armor
(- 100 %)
I paid 15g 'til I tamed it.
---------------------------------------------

I didn't know that, thx, sounds logical!

Is it a good idea to get rid of the gear?
What do you think?

Kommentar von Thottbot

I didn't come across death skitter until level 67. I tried about 8 times to tame with no luck. Finally I just set the slowing trap and started to tame from the max range. Got him with no problem. I do wish that pets didn't shrink so much but this is still a cool as hell pet to have.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Pain to tame? Not really, yes it can be tamed and it does go to be a tiny little bugger once tamed. I've tamed the 66 spiders but they are just not as amusing as this thing. Although I am not a fan of spiders (Due to limited moves on them) I do like the unique looks of these new ones.

The sound reminds me of Rodan from Godzilla XD Which makes them the funniest pet in the game to me. Plus they are LOUD, if you have this thing as a pet you'll know what I mean. It is LOUD! Louder than the normal pets in game, nothing else in the game is this loud with this spider.

Tamed him solo with 7500hp, hits for 750s and poisons for 200/tick. Had 2k hp left after tame.

Kommentar von Thottbot

This pet is so worth the work to get he hits like a monster and i trained him as a 66 hunter and even tho i just got him hes eating mobs alive

Kommentar von Thottbot

I actualy tamed it and it is a very reliable pet.

I just got a druid to sleep it and then i tamed it. It's the simplest way to do it.

Kommentar von Thottbot

i also tamed deathskitter, hes pretty nice; starts out with 5028armor (not counting extra armor from me) and 5099 health-without great stamina or natural armor!
very useful and i like him a lot =)

Kommentar von Thottbot

I just tamed deathskitter.

Here's how i did it.

1) Got naked in case I fail. Don't want that repair bill.

2)magic dust

3) tamed before he woke up.

It's just that easy.

BTW - He totally shrinks down to a tiny little spider after tamed. Kinda sad really.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Above is bullsht.
He does not come with such resistances.

Your pets will take a percentage of resistances from items YOU are wearing combined with any resistance you train for them.

Also when tamed he is very small but looks bad ass. Personally I think spiders are a waste, nothing really beats the versitility and damage of cats.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Xdannox you're probably wrong about that as I (as well as several other hunters) have tried taming him: he is *immune* to ice trap after many
attempts

Kommentar von Thottbot

I donno why people are complaining about
This pet is easy to tame (aswell are the 99% of the other pets in wow) have your gear on, and if you are below level 70 you might consider getting buffs first, other then that its just to stand there and wathc him be tamed

He does VERY good damage, im a lvl 70 BM hunter with almost full kara/gruul epic, and he does 160dps when im self buffed and pops up to about 185dps after the talent thingy procs

One time at gruul when i was using all my cd's at once and some other grp buffs he had 350dps alone!

This is a very good and good looking pet i would recomend to all fellow hunters out there

Kommentar von Thottbot

Enough about making a stupid Pet. WTF is it really for?

Kommentar von Thottbot

lol! deathskitter is a one of a kind colors and party icon pet. Yes hes hard hitter but easy task.I am a lvl 64 hunt 6.8k life.(taming=armor 0)(doesnt remove scroll-chant-buff etc armor)He does resist traps hits for 700 to 900 + 200 on poison apply.Use aspect of the monkey and get ready haha. on the way where he passes u simply gona see some broken trees separated in 3 i tamed pulled him around 2 logs making him take 6 seconds to reach me then taming it at 7% hp left on a lucky miss. !Poison killed me ! haha u might wanna sit fast to eat after.
But u know what my advice make your damn life easyer :D And get a healer for that spider or massive agility :p! As a troll gotta tell u she is hella tiny but very aggressive

Kommentar von Thottbot

This pet is really good for DPS it seems to do more Damge then my Ravager but petopia says otherwise so i would say getting this.

Kommentar von Thottbot

I tamed him by myself one day, died once then another time with a add. finally i got him but he shrunk down to the size of a peanut once i tamed him. I say he is only good for a show pet otherwise the mosters might as well just lift up their feet and stomp on him.

Kommentar von Thottbot

FYI, he is immune to freezing traps witch was also a pain in the ass because I use freezing traps whenever I tame something.

Kommentar von Thottbot

just in case everyone thinks its such a good idea taking off ur armor to kill him. yes to save on repair costs, BUT i did it not thinking, and once i was dead i realized that i had like 2000 less health when i took all my armor off :P and at this lvl im sure u have enough money to may the fairly small repair cost this will give u. unless u die like 300 times, lol. still working on it now, waiting for my bubbles trinket to CD. as MANY people have said, IMMUNE TO FROST TRAPS (yes both of them) proly a good idea to have someone else there to help ya, i dont right now cause its the middle of the night and no one is on :P shrinks so much it looks like a non-combat pet, lol, but oh well, nice for instances and stuff, wasy to click around. good luck to everyone trying to get one. :)

Kommentar von Thottbot

For those saying take off all your armour to save on repair bills...

DON'T.

Think about it.. where do you get your +stamina from? i.e. your health? If you're dying while fully geared, you'll only die harder without any gear lol. Keep your extra 3k or so health, it may very well save you.

Not to mention agility for dodge rating and such.

And like someone else said, at this lvl a couple of gold from dying shouldn't hurt your wallet too much ;)

Just tamed him now, and I was impressed by his health and armor.. can't wait to get him fully loyal and leveled :)

Kommentar von Thottbot

very easy to kill for fun - kite him to alleran stronghold.

Kommentar von Thottbot

I tried to tame with help of priest. DONT TRY IT cause if you have less than 6k hp it kills you even if you have stam buff. If you have druid as your friend ask him to help you. Druids can put beasts and dragons to sleep for 20-30sec. Its very useful.

Kommentar von Thottbot

WTF i used beast lore he has 22k hp lol and like 600-888 damage what a beast lil pet too bad i'm 63 i'll get him next lvl =-P...

Spawns: 54,64 (most common) or 53,57

Respawn: 6.5 - 8 mins

Dropped: (first blue drop according to the data here at time of post)

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Soloed as 69 frost mage. Basically pingponged aggro between myself and my water ele (let him get first aggro and spam Frostbolt til it peeled off on me, then kited it around while the water ele got aggro back and so forth), cold snapped and did it again, and he was dead before the second water ele expired.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Solo tamed him yesterday as a 66 hunter, first try. Just started tame at max range, used dodge skill, and a dodge up trinket. Resisted all his dots and it went smooth. Had an add near end of tame and was stuck in combat till it was dead before I could feed it or train it growl. As a pet it came with nothing, and his hp's dropped to 5500 ish.

Edited, Jan 28th 2008 8:32am by wirebite

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Yes, he is tameable solo at 64, although it is very, very difficult, as he is immune to Traps, Concussive shot and Fear. He also hits very hard and has a nasty poison DoT. Normal hits were 750-850 and crits around 1500.

After dying 6 times, I eventually got him, finishing on under 50HP. Had to put on all my +Dodge gear and pull at maximum range after using Deterence and the Defilers Talisman that absorbs 500 (ish) damage.

With a Priest Shield before the pull it would be considereably easier, depends how much of a challenge you want. ;)

The pull is easier from the West side of his patrolling range, as the East side is a bit close to a few Tree elementals and the timing is a bit trickier if you want to avoid aggroing one.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

i soloed him as 63 paladin

Kommentar von Allakhazam

As a lvl 64 lock. Was kinda hard but straight-forward.
Send in felguard, cleave on. DoT him, then siphon life to Felguard. The guy hits very hard so had to literally spam siphon life, with only a few moments to replace my DoTs.He didn't aggro me, and I finally brought him down, with 80% of my health lost just through siphon life... Got a green item, some tunic. He must be a quest target but I don't know what quest. Not the hardest elite all in all. Terrokarantula is much harder, I ccan't solo her.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

A pain to taim at 65. hits like a truck, poisons, any assist will disrupt the tame. Max distance, paladin aura, dodge aura, and I got him. kind of unimpressive as a pet, but he looks sexy and very tiny.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

he is tameble, get lots of Hp tho as he crits alot.After he got tamed he gets smaller.
good luck

Kommentar von Allakhazam

i was actually able to tame him when i was lvl 66 but it took a 70 priest and a 65 shaman

Kommentar von Allakhazam

anybody knows about the respawn rate ?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Soloed him. Took me to 40% life. Started fight with charge, popped Zerk Rage, Sunderedx5, popped Recklessness, Bloodthirst + Whirlwind... and he was dead.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I found the only way to tame this mob was with Wyvern Sting. Quite easy using that method although I did get close only using druid and priest buffs, along with aspect of wild. When I finally did tame him, I was shocked as to how much he shrunk. No more than knee high and about the height of a gnome from tail to the ends of his front legs. Immediately after taming he retains some nice resistances but soon looses them after his first death or recall. He does not retain any abilities either. Without training, I currently have him at lvl 64:

Str: 114 power: 272
Agi: 112 damage: 145-172 Nature Resistance: 4
Sta: 255 armour: 5006
Int: 31
Spi: 86

Not sure it was worth the time and effort. Although the damage he does is good and would probably work quite well with a beast master.

Is it immune to sheep also ? - if no - no probs - just have a friendly mage pop along

if yes ..

what about shaman's earthbind totem, for slowing him down ? that in a combo with the before mentioned priest to pop shield and heal meanwhile.

dunno if pala's have some stun or slowing abilities that works.

I just tamed him with the help of a pally to heal. DO NOT try to tame this guy solo if you want to get him. he dots can't be trapped or stunned and hits like a truck.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

He really does hit like a truck. Ate through my frost shield in one or two hits, couldnt frost nova him to try an ice lance him (70 Frost Mage)
Got him down to 20% so not impossible just quite hard.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Solo tamed him yesterday. Got a priest & druid buff first, & equipped everything I had to boost health. Got right down to the wire, I died from his poison just as the timer ran out for taming. Lol, wasn't even sure if I'd tamed him til I rezzed myself & clicked call pet, but there he was, considerably smaller, but still cool looking. A priest or druid along to HoT you would be very helpful, but possible solo.
