I found the strat confusing. The first time, I thought I was supposed to swap to Benax when Fancier died. I completely failed. Second time I left Snarly in until Snarly died, and Snarly almost finished the fight himself. Might want to clarify "Until Snarly dies"
forgot to read the notes! corgi didnt die when predicted, creeper died early, still managed to pull it off
Only had a SS Red Viperid, so I thought I would give it a go. Didn't realize that the Viperid was also only level 24, until he got 1900 EXP and became level 25. lol So this also works with SS Viperids as well! XD
I used - Baby Elderhorn Call Blizzard - Buttercup Deep freeze, Call of winter, Trample Trample Trample Deep Freeze Dies - Violet Violance for icelance -
Thank you. This worked very well.

Script didn't work but written instructions were spot on -

took 3 goes, honestly didn't think it would work... -
My snake is SS so yes, and it's dying too.
Script doesn't seem to be working still. His third pet came out with full health and all i have is my backup pet left. Both my snake and Buttercup are SS, so they are definitely fast enough. At one poiint the script swapped to my third pet, so that may be the issue.
Bring back the whelp Blizz!

Wow, that's a lot of different favorite Murlocs! I didn't think it would be so varied, and I completely forgot how many murlocs there are as pets nowadays :D
I'd love to give every single one of you a Bronze Murloc but alas, I only have one. And the lucky roll this time went to ....

SeiriCerin#2343

Congratulations! Check your DMs please for the code :-)

Thank you so much for participating everyone! That's one Thrrrdgl raffled out .... more to come very soon! Stay tuned ;-)




Who doesn't love a murloc, at least one of them, right? The most cuddly of slimy creatures in existence, probably.
With the arrival of the newest murloc battle pet, Thrrrdgl, we are doing a quickfire giveaway for one of them.

Will the code arrive in time? Will it work across regions or just in EU? We don't know!
Doesn't matter, leave a comment saying which murloc pet is your favorite and on Friday, March 21st, one of you will receive a brand new bronze murloc!

Good luck!

You have been tremendous help over the years, thank you.

I am attempting to follow the guide to make a strategy but there is no link anywhere on the site to get to the strategy page. Am I missing something?

Gráinne

Use the top menu to go to the page for the battle for which you want to create a strategy.

You will see an existing strategy - doesn't matter which.

On the right is a pink tab with a plus sign + on it.

Click that pink tab.

Back when I was a noob Pet Battler, it took me some effort to figure out which Pet Dungeons were still worth doing after completion, and which were not. So here is a suggestion for an info to place somewhere on your great site:

Informational note on pet dungeon "sustainability":

Most pet dungeons become completely obsolete once you have completed all objectives and all associated achievements/pets/titles. This is true for: Stratholme, Blackrock Depths, The Celestial Tournament, The Deadmines. Some pets you can buy with the currency from The Deadmines come in different breeds, so make sure you get one of each before you forget about the dungeon.

"Sustainable" dungeons are: The Wailing Critters, Gnomeregan

Pets from these dungeons (via currency, or via random drop from the reward satchel) are tradable, so it is worth doing these two dungeons every week if you are interested in Gold/Euros/Dollars.

As an example, average prices for EU Azjol-Nerub, acc. to undermine.exchange as of 2023-12-30:

Gnomeregan:
Mechantula: 3.5k
Mechanical Cockroach: 16k
Alarm-O-Dog: 64k
Leper Rat: 70k

Wailing Critters:
Young Venomfang: 10k/17k
Cavern Mocassin: 23k/44k
Everliving Spore: 270k

Edit: Fixed realm name for example source; detailed the pet rewards for the two good dungeons; minor other changes; typos. (edited)

Thanks for this. Been thinking about this for a while. I personally only run WC as the added difficulty of Gnomeregan is not worth it :-p

Mot

wrote on 2024-03-30 23:06:15

Yeah, currently WC is the only dungeon I'm running, too. (The drop rate of the Cavern Mocassin isn't bad, and it sells for 20k+ on my server.) Gnomeregan is good, in theory, but currently some discount clowns on my server are selling the pets from there for like 10k.)

Hello, the website says 8-11-2023 is Super squirt day but that seems impossible because pet week has ended by then (EU) ? (edited)

Aranesh

wrote on 2023-11-10 12:41:10

You're right. The calculation assumed it was a super squirt day because technically the pet changes in the morning of the same day that was squirt, but that makes no sense of course. I've gotta look into those cases. Sorry for the confusion!

Alauraa#2331

thank you for the nice reply!

What is the "(edited)" tag for?

I just posted a comment to a strat, then added "Thanks for sharing." and it shows the "(edited)" tag.

IMHO, this tag only makes sense if it appears when the post has been edited after the visitor's last visit to this page. As it is now, it is just clutter, as it does not carry any useful information. (Well, it might tell the reader that the author is a bit stupid or distracted, as he was apparently incapable of posting the entire post in one go ;-)

that is rather rude!!! ever hear of an after thought??? also some phones, tablets, and laptops have an extremely sensitive send button and it may not all get out in one send yet the sender prefers to have it all in the same spot. there is a chance that the author is neither stupid, or distracted... and as far as "incapable" ... stuff happens! after thoughts don't mean a person is incapable or distracted either... which once again brings me to the sensitive send button... but a reader that takes it as that tells me that the reader is judgmental and needs to learn compassion!

Gráinne

wrote on 2023-07-02 07:56:46

I wouldn't call it "rude". I think it's useful to know, especially when you see replies that may not actually seem to relate to the post they're replying to.

And in the cases where it doesn't matter, it does no harm. (edited)

Mot

wrote on 2023-07-02 10:36:07

Thank you, @Gráinne, for addressing the topic of my comment.

You are right, the tag can be useful if the post has been edited after a reply has been posted.

And that brings me to a better solution (my suggestion to apply the tag only after the visitor's last visit to the page is not really helpful in this case):

– Add a grace period: Apply the Edited tag only if the edit was made later than, say, 3 minutes after the original post. (This is not uncommon on forums, e.g the Discourse software has a setting for this.)

– Ideally, add the date of the edit, so, if we see a seemingly incoherent reply, we can clearly see if the edit might be the cause.

When I go into strategies it automatically picks one type and I can't pick that I want all types. Anyone know what to do?

Are there teams/scripts for the Eastern Kingdoms/Kalimdor daily pet battles? Trying to level from 1-70 with just pet battle dailies, and would like to level up the most pets I can efficiently. Thanks :)

Gráinne

wrote on 2023-05-15 11:52:52

There are not. The six highest are listed in the Misc->An Awfully Big Adventure menu anove, but not lower. The others will be wiped out by pretty much any Blue Level 25.

But, honestly, dailies through EK and Kalimdor are not worth doing. Only very low level carry pets will get any XP, and that not very much. And it's a lot of travelling time.

You can get very good character XP and some pet XP - better than EK/Kalimdor dailies, at least - from wild battling.

But what I would recommend is to put War Mode on, and park your alt at the pet area in Legion Dalaran.

Legion Dalaran repeatable tamers are up maybe twice a week on average, BUT when one is up, you can get full tamer XP for each battle for your pets, so a pet levelled in 4 battles, and also excellent character XP, with no travelling time, and you can repeat as much as you want while the tamer is up.

See the Powerlevelling Guide https://www.wow-petguide.com/Guide/44/Powerleveling_Guide for more about levelling with wild battles, and the Legion Tamers.

This has been bothering me for awhile and want to ask: Has anyone else been clicking the link to go directly to the comments section on an article page and instead it only scrolls down to the middle of the scroll sidebar for that web page?

Gráinne

wrote on 2023-05-14 21:40:34

Yes. Same here :) But only on long articles like this one.

I'm guessing Aranesh will pick up on this, but it really isn't a problem.

Hello All,
I seem to have run into a problem with Magpie website. My browsers list Magpie as "unsecure" and say the certificate has expired. Does anyone else have this notice?
Thanks

Update; Thanks for the reply and all the hard work. If not for this website and all the info it provides I probably would not be doing any pet battles. Thanks once again.

Gráinne

wrote on 2023-03-15 19:38:31

Yes, I see the same. Looking at the cert, it expired yesterday. I have flagged it in the DIscord, and I'm sure Aranesh will fix it.

Meanwhile, I wouldn't let that stop you using Magpie. There is no confidential information being exchanged, and nothing that is prone to malicious use. Anyway, the SSL still holds; it's just that it's dur for renewal.

Hey, sorry for that. I've renewed the certificates now. Thanks for the poke. I'll set myself reminders for the future so it won't happen again :)

I am having trouble with what teams show up when using the "Rematch" feature on Xu-Fu when finding out what teams to use. For example, when pulling up Stratholme suggested teams it suggest a team that is further down the list and low rated by community. When the top rated team for that specific battle has like 100+ likes and I even have all the pets for at 25 its not suggesting it when clicking the rematch for the whole dungeon. It just suggest the latter (Even one of the pets suggested is one I don't have max level). I can of course just go to that specific fight in the list and just find the best team suggestion, but it'd be super helpful to have that best team already suggested in the FULL list for the entire dungeon. In my Xu-Fu settings, I have, "Script, Level, Breed, Staff Pick, Fast, Long, & Shop" in Preferred and everything else in Unfavored. Am I doing something wrong or am I just overlooking something? D:

Gráinne

wrote on 2023-02-25 19:38:29

Why do you have "Long" and "Shop" in preferred? It will then favour long strategies using shop pets.

I don't know which battle within Stratholme you're talking about, so I can't check.

My preferences are

Preferred: Staff Pick, Fast, Level
Neutral: TCG, Breed, Shop, Script
Unfavoured: RNG, Long, Tricky, Unobtainable

Now, that might not be the ideal choice for everyone. I can certainly imagine some people Unfavouring Breed, Shop, and TCG, and/or Favouring Script.

But if you try it again with those preferences, you might get a better selection.

Is there any way to automatically blacklist pets from another team in that group so it doesn't use it in "random pet" slots from other teams in that group? Hope it is understandable english is not my first language. I'm asking here because idk if there is a general chat forum, if so let me know.

Gráinne

wrote on 2023-02-20 20:50:06

I *think* you are thinking of Rematch, and dungeons.

Your question would be: is there a way to tell Rematch not to fill an "Any Pet" slot with a pet that will be used elsewhere in the dungeon. Is that right?

If so, the answer is no. When Rematch sees an "Any Pet" string, it does use a random pet.

What I have done in cases where the strat uses "Any Pet" is to import the team into Rematch and then manually fill the "Any Pet" slot with a pet of my choice.

If I have misunderstood your question, please clarify.

Magpie is broken for me. Am I the only one? Have trouble loading character and if it does load there is an error about old auction data and Blizzard API not working with no auction data being shown, only the error info. Thanks

EDIT: Thanks for all the hard work you guys do. It is very much appreciated.
