Level 10 Blood Elf Hunter Questline Walkthrough

February 12, 2007 By Gitr 61 Comments

I couldn’t find any quick information on who it is that starts the questline to tame my first pet, so I’m making it. I remembered that for my dwarf hunter, the trainer was not in Ironforge, so I figured that the trainer for Blood elves would not be in Silvermoon. Wrong.

Upon reaching level 10, hunters gain the ability to tame their pets, after completing a questline. The questline starts with Oninath in Silvermoon (84,26). He sends you to Farstrider Retreat to speak with Lieutenant Dawnrunner (60,63).

The kind Lieutenant sends you off to tame a Crazed Dragonhawk. I just ran out the door to the North and tamed one right away. Nice and simple. Run back and complete the quest to pick up a quest to tame an Elder Springpaw. I spotted a level 8 to the West of the Retreat and tamed it. The final taming leg is for a Mistbat. This one took some running. Follow the Dead Scar all the way to the border on the river. Staying on the East side, there are some mistbats on the other shore. I had to settle for a level 10 and tamed it (barely) to finish the questline.

I ran back to the Retreat and went on back to Silvermoon to do some pet training. When I went back out into the world, I tamed a level 9 Elder Springpaw and we can hunt without stopping. He has more HP than me and does about 11dps already.

Update with screenshots:

Due to the vast number of comments on this post and people e-mailing saying that I’m wrong, I re-rolled a hunter again and here is exactly what happens when you hit 10 as a Blood Elf hunter.

At level 10, I ran to Silvermoon and went to the above-mentioned location of Oninath. Lo! There is a ! above his head.

He offers me the quest in addition to his normal hunter trainer abilities.

Here is what the quest says to do:

Here is the lovely Dawnrunner at the above-mentioned location:

    No.

    I’m beginning to wonder…are you a Blood Elf? Maybe that’s it. I’ve been through 3 Belf hunters, all the same. We have 3 hunters in the guild over 10 now, all the same. Call a GM if this doesn’t work.

    Confirmed thanks a ton, I wasted alot of time trying to figure this out by myself being my first time this helped alot. Orinath is in the Silvermoon Hunters Lodge in the Farstriders Square (northern most building, he’s on the right as you go in)

    Awesome, would’ve been wandering around forever without this. As soon as I finished it up, went through the translocator to Undercity and tamed me a Worg!

    ummm. Sure, I’ll help you, but I feel like having some fun with this.

    First, you need to tell me who so I don’t go spend 5 minutes looking for everyone else.

    “Speak with Halthenis in Silvermoon City.”

    Ok. Go to Oninath. Now look in the opposite corner of the same room. /ahaha!!!!! Lookie there! Who would have thunk there’d be a pet trainer in the same room as a hunter trainer?

    /raises hand

    Sorry for poking fun at you. I feel better now. Thanks for helping the others out with the same question.
