To get this awesome Worgen as Hunter Pet you need to prepare a few things.

Garwal has 14k hp and he turns from wolf to worg at 50%. If you tame him before he transforms then he will stay a gray worg, if you tame him right after he transforms he will turn into the humaoid form then and then right into a worg.
You need to make sure you get him to 50% hp when the taming proces finishes. A simple way to do this is to use the ability Wyvern Sting.

A stinging shot that puts the target to sleep for 30 sec.  Any damage will cancel the effect.  When the target wakes up, the Sting causes Nature damage over 6 sec.

So you bring garwal to 52% hp (7400) and then use Wyvern sting on him. with about 15 seconds left on the Sleep start to tame. 5 seconds before the tame is finished it will start ticking and thus bring garwal to transform just in time.

  • Garwal is Level 71, so you need to be at least Level 71
  • The Quest “Alpha Worg” (Alliance; Horde) in Howling Fjord. If you completed that quest you will not be able to see the worg and thus not be able to tame it.
  • Some way to manage damage to Garwal when the tame is being finished – wyvern sting, a friend damaging him to 50% or whatever method you choose.

Good luck and have fun with this awesome pet!

P.S. I know the UI sucks and that the hutner sucks, I played her las tin 2005 in molten core and she still has some T1 ;-) But when I heard of this I could not resist :-)

UPDATE: Garwal has been fixed by Blizzard, but something jsut doesn’t seem right. His size is is extremely large as can easily been seen in the new video:

    I am getting reports that Blizzard hotfixed taming Garwal this evening. I still have Garwal in his worgen form, jsut on char screen it looks odd now.

    Quote from: Blue (Source)

    “The worgen should not technically belong to any of the pet families and was therefore removed. This means the pet no longer has access to pet talents or abilities. Whether or not similar circumstances with hunter pets in the past have occurred isn’t really relevant. Given the nature of the creature that was tamed in this case, we feel it should not belong to any of the eligible pet families from which a hunter can choose his or her combat companion.”

    Way to go blizzard! Once again you remove anything that can make people unique. The ghost wolf was still my favorite though.
