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:

    I just helped my daughters boyfriend (he rolled a BE) get to lv10 on his brand new hunter, we went to silvermoon hunter trainer (im also a hunter) I personally had the quest start there, but he did not, so we just went back to farstrider square and there it was.

    Your info worked like a charm. The updated comments weren’t even necessary to find the hunter who gave quest. The PPL complaining are idiots and need to learn to read correctly. Thanks for great info.

    Umm… I did what you said and when I tried to tame Crazed Dragonhawk it started attacking me. I didn’t attack back but continued the “taming process”. But when it was done it kept attacking me… I couldn’t attack back (because it was actually my pet) so I died

    Have you ever tamed a pet before? This is how it is done. What happened here is called a bug, because it’s never happened to me with any of my 7 hunters and hundreds of pets. You got a freak incident if this was your first try.

    This guide stands as correct.
