pretty self explanatory really. I can't seem to get the time correct for the pets. I've got the coordinates (at least i THINK they're accurate) and I'm high enough to catch the one i want. can anyone give me a specific time range for them (all of them) in either server time or Central?
I'm that weird person who has been playing since 08' and never reaches endgame because I keep going off the grid for college. And, you know, The Sims 3 happened... b:chuckle

Also, anyone notice that they fixed the old "Fox veno skin color glitch" from back in the day? LOL when did that happen!?

    Well I know the times are all reseted after Maintainance, so if you place yourself at one of those places before maintainance, then come back on after maintainance you may have a chance in capturing one. Then if you are unlucky you should note the time and wait 12 hours for the next respawn.

    ok well it depends on what you want
    if you are going for the tabby plumdrop, lemme tell you there is no way you'll be able to get it without -x% casting or speed food (from apoth skills) at your current level. sorry but that is the truth because alot of lvl90 venos will show up & have their tame maxxed & have lots of -x% (i ran into a veno with -36% channeling trying to tame the cuddly pup b:surrender)

    if you're going for the snow hare, you're in good shape. not many ppl care about this pet, idky its a very good pet; it tanked qingzi b:chuckle
    but it respawns every hour or so.

    if you are the at the spawn site then be sure to bring a clock with you because if you dont get it, you will need to record the time of the either death or tame time. yes, evil venos will "booch" on the DDing of the pet so then if you tame earlier than them, you wont get it.

    also, targetting is very very important because the faster you can click on it, the more time you have to tame it. do NOT rely on pushing the tab button to target a rare pet. its very random & not good if your trying to outtame higher lvl venos. it also helps on where you stand. i've noticed that at night pets will spawn in a slightly different spot than they do during the day. its a big deal if your trying to outtame someone tho :P

    if your trying to find the time that the pet spawns. well #1 & im sure you know this, you gotta be exact. no not x:15pm x:16pm is even more exact ;] #2 this server is a EST server which means that it goes along with the east coast time. so add or subtract that to wherever you live & then go to the spawn site (server time) 5:30 to 7:30. yes that is alot of time but you will be more accurate & once you know the spawn time, you wont have to wait that long again as you will only come 15 minutes early prior to spawn time. because even tho that its typically exact. one time, (cuz imma nerd & i need to be there like half an hour early :P) the pet i was tryna tame spawned at x:17 when the last time, someone killed it so its death time was x:32. im not sure if that was due to to the server crash or not but that is a big deal because no one was there b:pleased but as i was DDing it some veno swooped in, tamed & left .__.

    i highly suggest as well, that even tho you want whichever pet now, that you wait for a bit until you can tame it without getting outtamed because you might become frustrated with no luck & its been a while since you've been going to spawn site at the right time. if you have high lvl veno friends or venos with lots of -x% casting, you talk to them, cuz 2 venos are always better than 1 ;D

    the rare pet business is a very catty one & i believe that we should do sth about it cuz its only the mean ones who've made it this way :\ but what is there to do? its not like we can regulate who gets what when because there's just so many ppl who want a rare pet

    you can whisper me ingame too :] im artymis :P (this is my first time to post sth onto a forum for pw so idk how it works for icons & stuff) b:quiet

    I believe the server time is pacific time. Look at the bottom of the forum. It show to be 3 hours behind my time and I am in Eastern time zone.
    e.g. It shows 5:45.... It is 8:45 on the east coast

    yeah sorry, this is under dreamweaver so i just assumed that it would be under EST :\
    but if you are in a PST then subtract 3 hours from that definitely :]

    That is true for the forums, however server time is not the same as forum time necessarily. Dreamweaver is an east coast server, and therefore it is on EST. Just watch when the races start, they are available at 9:20 PM to enter on server time, and you can enter at 9:20 PM EST.

    To OP: Just wait till you are a higher level. There is no need to get a rare pet, and once you get your Tame skill maxed, you'll have a chance.
