  • One day I came to Molten Front just to get a picture, then my npcscan said it found Skarr, then Skitterflame, then kirix and then i thought well maybe Solix is there and he was :P Pretty random/lucky day. :D

  • got em :D , Thanks alot bro

  • Yay new pet ^.^ Got him on the second try, I would have gotten him on the first try if it wasn't for the flying lava rocks.

  • great video, thanks a lot.!

  • ty for this ! did it on first try :)

  • now i have 5 of him :P

  • omg thnx XD 1 try and got it ^^

  • Oh thank man it took about 3 times to learn how but thank you!

  • why wood you tame the big one when you can tame the small once right there where the yellow once are

  • @superkid262 because it lets the hunters in the area who aren't able to do it know ur better then them, just abandon him after the tame and repeat next time

  • @superkid262 And because Solix has a unique skin. The ones outside have the same skin as Skitterflame, he is on the side of Fireplume Mountain, past Kirix.

  • Killed him at the same time that i tamed him ;D skilled there lol

  • I had my rogue friend help slow him, I told him to vanish and started taming him and finished taming him at the last possible second, he had 1 on his energy bar left

  • I want to point out there are only 2 spiders with unique skin, green spiders can be found, they are as small as critters and roam in packs in the Molten front

  • These rare spiders are fun to tame.

    Also often find them because people CAN'T kill them easily :)

  • So taming him can kill him? I was at the end of the tame and he just... flopped over and died???

  • SWEET.... Just tamed him doing exactly what you did man... lol Thank you SOOO much for your awesome vid... Keeping a constant Concussive shot on him totally helped. He got down to 4 energy by the time I got him tamed.. Got close. Only @ 371 score, and I did it just fine. It CAN be done. =) Muradin server =) Whisper Jenesaiquois if you want help and I'm online.

  • Thanks very easy got him first try

  • Thank you! Just got him :)

  • I went to this place with another hunter who could see the spider but I couldn't see it. Will I have to do a certain amount of quests in Molten Front to be able to tame and see this?

  • THIS HELPED SO MUCH BUT AT FIRST I DIED LIKE 20 TIMES!

    

  • I killed him too =( Didn't realize he'd die when the red bar goes down should have finished watching video before trying to tame =(((

  • FUCK I KILLED HIM SOMEHOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­

  • ty for the tip got him on first try

  • Took a few tries, but i got the hang of it.

  • This pet looks 100% like the normal mob ones? >_> Same with Anthriss? >_>

    Is it just me?

  • How do I even get to that place?

  • <3 this made it so easy to tame him xD he one shot me like 3 times then i was like -_- im looking this up xD AND NOW I HAS HIM WOOO

  • Thanks for the very helpful vid, mate!

    :)

    I'm a proud Solix owner now. 

  • DAMNIT!!!! i waited till 10, and my taming bar was just a milimeter away, but he died D=

  • you have to start at 30 energy i start at 28 and he dies -.-

  • Not even one freaking minute ago, i checked if solix is there, found him, checked wowhead, lead to this video, tamed solix.

    Actually insanely simple .. but i never thought of concussive shot.

    You sir just helped me greatly.

  • Thanks for the video! I used Cheetah and got him easy :)

  • FIRST TRY, AWESOME VID!!!!

  • Did this second time thanks to this guide, and the first time i DC'd mid way though o.o

    Cheers :D

  • Worked like a charm. didnt even need the frost trap

  • kiting is too hard !!!!

  • Boooooo yaah Solix is mine. thx dude

  • Just tamed Solix using ur method got him the first time worked very well

  • Haha thnx man i just idd this as i listend to your explaination first pet rare of mine i'm so excited so i cheat but my server is highpop and iwas scared to lose it!!! thnx agian

  • NO! get a druid to Entangling roots him while he's in the lava and keep doing it till like the buff drops off and then have the hunter pull aggro and tame it's so easy!

    

  • @Flyingwolf83 Isn't it just easier to keep concussive up all the time? There are no other mobs to get in your way.

  • @DeadlySlob But if you Roots him in the lava he loses his energy and then you can just tame him :3

  • @DeadlySlob Worked like a champ for me!

  • @DeadlySlob Also, throw up aspect of the cheetah so you have that speed advantage on him. I was far enough away and had concussive shot him so I think I only received 1 hit.

  • Worked like a charm for me! Just a few things to know beforehand, though...

    - COMPLETE THE QUEST "ENDURING THE HEAT!" Otherwise, you'll have unstable fireragers spawning around you constantly, making things all the more difficult.

    - BEWARE THE FIREBALLS JUMPING FROM THE LAVA! You'll see shadows on the ground where fireballs will leap from the pools of lava and land. If you have Aspect of the Cheetah on, this WILL daze you. If this happens, Deterrence + Disengage away from Solix for room.

  • Thank you so much for the guide, just got him today!

  • thanks big help, got him on mannoroth about 2 min ago

  • Dude, thank you so much! I was starting to think I couldn't solo him.

  • Thanks for the intel man. Just tamed him 30 seconds ago!

  • Thanks! Laid a Ice trap, shot CS, started running laid snakes, keep CS up, repeat. I waited until he was around 35 energy - at this point he was going after my snakes from a trap i just laid so I hit him with CS and started taming and by the time he reached me, he was tamed.  Took no damage.

  • Thanks man!! it worked perfectly :D

  • i just got it for 2 min ago!!! YEAH TANK YOU SO MUCH!

  • fuck yeah got him right after watching this!

  • Got my Solix on Thanksgiving! :) Thx for the easy vid! Love my spider.

  • Tx for this vid helped alot, tried it a few times before watching this. After watching this vid i one shotted it :D Tx again

  • haha Didn't even know about him.. was doing my dailies and was all wow this guy hurts... underneath I saw "beast" and then the silver-dragon on its face and was like... ITS.. ABOUT... TO GO... DOWN...

  • I subbed. I like ur vids cause u make things easy and simple. i havent made a hunter yet, but after i saw this vid, im TOTALLY making one! thx!

  • Worked like a dream..Took 4 deaths but followed the vid and worked...found it better to start with a Serpent Sting then hit Concussive straight away..and just watch the Concussive debuff wear off and hit again..I started taming at 50% and no worries at all about health...I think the Serpent Sting actually helps to get his energy down to a decent level

  • Very nice tutorial. I had no problems getting him. Kind of luck has it cause I got him and Magria in the same day.

  • I picked a good time to do dailies lol. Solix was just chillin, so I went ahead and tamed him. Nice video! Thank you :)

  • I failed forgot about the energy and ended up killing him

  • Awesome video! I just followed your strategy, I died 3 times, but by my 4th try using your strat perfectly, I finally tamed the mofo spider!

    He's an awesome looking pet! Thanks again.

  • how do you concussive shot whilst running sideways?

  • Concussive shot really helped me tame it, thanks! xD

  • Thanks Bro! Just caught him on US-Mannoroth! Turned 85 and already have him and Terropene caught today! lol

  • Thanks a lot for doing this video, I just tamed him with your instructions :3

  • i just got mine to thanks

  • Great video just got him today cheers mate!

  • oops

  • Got him! Thank you :)

  • Ty for the vid, worked like a charm. :P

  • tamed him thanks to this vid

  • Thanks for that mate. Ran into him and quickly googled how to tame and came across your vid. Worked perfectly. Thanks again

  • Dude, awesome video, totally works

  • god damnit i wish i saw this vid before i actually met this guy, i made him run out of energy and lost him... FML

  • ugh.. i found him on my warrior and went on my hunter to tame him but he was in a different phase =/

  • entrapment for surv works... he was stunned for a short time while i got over half the cast off b4 he strted at me by the time he got to me i tamed him

  • He died for me :/ I though he had 100% spawn because he was always there when i did my daily

  • Comment removed

  • Great video, watched it, tamed him :-D Thanks :)

  • ΓΕΙΑ ΣΟΥ ΡΕ ΕΛΛΗΝΑΡΑ THANATOS ΛΕΓΕΤΑΙ Ο ΤΡΟΛΑΣ ΧΑΟΟΧΑΟΧΟΑ

  • Woot just Got him so Happy

  • Thx mate! It was easy!

  • does he do moredamage than regular pets?

  • Not actually gotten round to taming this guy yet but thought I'd just say the explanation in this video is very nicely done, makes me feel confident to try should he make my NPCscan go off again, thank you :)

  • i did this and thought it was really dissapointing and that you guys had lied to me, but then i noticed i have glyph of concussive. it slows him to walking speed all the time so you just have to sit there. theres no challenge to it tho so try it the hard way first :D

  • Nice video. I solo tame Solix and my method is I was on aspect of the cheetah and lay all 3 traps down then shoot concussive shot at him and run away...While running away, I keep laying any trap that is available so I can keep aggro on him. Once his buff wears off, I went back to tame him and he is mine :) without using deterrance or any haste pot or macros

  • i tamed it just liek that =O ty!

    

  • Thanks, paniced the first time and died all over the place. Opened up your video from Wowhead, and understood that you don't actually need to make any damage to him. Just spam CS and kite around. once he was @ 50 eneryg, I casted tame (w/o deterrence, though) and got him no problems.

    Thanks, thumbs up for you!

    (Funny fact: once I ran out of the cave, proud with my new pet, I saw an enemy paladin killing Anthriss...)

  • Thanks, it's very helpful. Just tamed this creepy fiery spider on the fifth attempt without aspect of the cheetah/pack, just Concussive Shots + 2 Ice Traps and tons of running around. A Deterrence + Tame Beast macro helps A LOT.

  • i tryed to tame him for first time but i killed him :|....

    i started at 20 energy....

    if you want to tame him start with 30-35 energy

  • Didn't know 'bout the energy, THEN I watched this video -_-*

  • Found this pet, tried taming with a friend hunter who showed me a tactic, but then when I was in the middle of taming an orc hunter just came up and supposedly "killed" him =(

  • I just ran across him @ 4am on my server... freaking nobody around. I had a free and clear shot without other ppl tryin to steal him or horde killing me or anything.... and I didn't know about the energy thing. I thought I had to kite and pound him down to low enough hp that his buff would drop and I could tame him, like deth'tliac. So pissed off... I basically had a free shot @ him and I just blew it by killing him. :(

    Fail WoWhead community for not having a post up to about that.

  • @CharBroiled04 If he dies, he will come back in 6 hours. 

  • Comment removed

  • @DeadlySlob

    Seems like you're correct about the 6hr spawn timer. I originally saw (and accidentally killed) him @ 4am server time. That means he was back up @ 10am, figure it took a few min for someone to notice him there and kill or tame him, respawn again 6hrs after that, putting him sometime around 4:15-4:45pm.... started camping around 4pm. Got up to go grab some cereal (just the box, I didn't even put it in a freaking bowl), and he spawned in the 10 seconds it took to get it. He's mine!

  • Thank you kind sir!

  • ya me and this hunter didnt know about the energy, he died.

  • omg thank you so much man got him in three times :)

  • The video was great, after several failed attempts i watched this and first try got him. Thanks

  • After 5 times getting blasted by lava, tripping over my feet and a hefty repair bill a fab healer came and helped me. Thanks for the video you made my year

  • dude i lagged mid kiting and he just died when i was back on

  • dude i attempted 10 times without having watch your video and i got dead following lots of strats after seen your video i tame it in the first attempt , i almost tough that i killed solix because of the energy but realize that i tame it in the same moment that energy went to 0 and my pet came dead to me so i resurrect it and i had it GREAT STRAT

  • tamed him without dieing after i watched vid, i actualy got him to 30ish energy, 1 last concussive, disengage then spammed tame, didnt even touch me :)

  • Comment removed

  • Thx for the help. It spawned and suddenly all the hordes were yelling and stuff (i'm alliance). Watched a hunter noob it out on it, shooting it once, then trying to tame. Like a pro, I ran in, concussive shot it, started kiting, kept concussive it until the energy level was 25 - the hunter respawns right when my tame is succesful. None of the other horde touched me even once.. Pretty sweet of them. That was 2. Could have gotten deth'litac too but got ninjaed when I almost had him. Sick.

  • Great guide thx for the help :)

  • wow great video. wish i was able to get it but i'm not good at kiting...never kited anything in the 4years i've been playing. I was able to get the crab and the black cat. i'll keep trying. thanks for the video.

  • Both Skarr and Solix were up just now. Got on my hunter, managed to tame Skarr but then I was like, "omg, how do I get Solix though?!" Googled, found this video.... and now I've gotten 2 molten front unique rares in 1 day. :) Thanks man!

  • Thanks a lot, this vid helped very much in taming him. :)

  • FUCK I AM SO MAD RIGHT NOW, WAS DOING IT THE RIGHT WAY BUT SOME FUCKING METEOR BLOWS ME UP AND SENDS ME RIGHT OUT TO THE FUCKING LAVA THEN I LOOSE THE CONTROL AND HE DIES CUS OF LOW ENERGY LIKE FUCK!!!!! @@@

  • i drained his energy to 0 like a champ

  • Get conc shot glyphed profit.

  • I FOUND THIS GUY YESTERDAY AND FUCKING RAID TEAM CAME AND KILELD IT FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • tytyty this help me tammed him

  • ty, just got it :D

  • good video but the intro was wayyy to long i had to sit here and wait while solix just watched my hunter lol

  • i failed to get this spider plenty of times when a hunter helped me, he wasa nice guy helping me get my solix ;p And after Solixwas tamed i got my last rare from Molten Front, Skitterflame.

  • Thanks deadly, tried forever to get him and was getting nervous seeing another hunter around when I have a 2min cd on ress. Got it within seconds after watching this video! Keep up the work man thanks alot.

    

  • at 2:28 mount?

  • I had less than 2 secs left in my tame and 4 aliance members drained its energy to 0.

  • OMG I LUV YOU THIS HELPED ME SO MUCH!!! I got it cause of this vid!

  • Thank you so much for this! Was able to tame him easily using this method! <3

  • To all fellow hunters: Please do not be a jerk and kill this or any other beast when another hunter is trying to tame it. I've seen it happen far too often. I can see another player interfering when they don't know what you're trying to do, but for another hunter to intentionally kill a beast while another hunter is taming is just shameful. Some even mock the other hunter afterward. Please have a little honor and respect. Far too many people already don't respect "Huntards" without us behaving

  • Hi Thantalos :>

    

  • I got this dude the other day and the next morning I helped another hunter tame him he didn't even know he was there:) I have kirix solix and deth tilac so I just need skitterflame iv actually saw that one 3 or more times while camping skarr which I now have and it always ends up getting killed. I also got ban thalos only 5 more and I'll have all the firelands rares:)))

  • "1 of the 3 new spiders," is it really that ? (:

  • @actiglow You didn't finish hearing me. One of the three UNIQUE spiders. Red and Yellow spiders can be tamed from the regular mobs. Green could considered not rare because of the Cinderweb babies. But those are not up all the time either.

  • @DeadlySlob oh, my bad  *facepalm*

  • the only hard thing about taming this spider is making sure id does'nt die. start at 25 energy and u will tame him for sure easily. 30.. risky if u got less than 130k hp

  • a guy killed it when i was 1 sec away from getting it thats just so sad im so angry right now i mean how can peoplöe do this?

  • thanks for taking the time to show this, very helpful.

  • where does all the mobs go?

  • FFS, so i just did the concussive shot run, and when he was around 22 energy i tried taming him, but it said this beast was already being tamed :S

  • Wow this video really helped i tried once (cause it was my first time seeing him) and feigned death because he got me easily then came here watched the vid and bam 1 minute later Solix is mine. Thanks for this awesome vid

  • SOLIX IS MINE

  • Comment removed
