Thank you, thank you, thank you!

This totally worked. Made a DK on TVC and parked him in Felwood a few days ago. Checked for a couple minutes a few times a day. Just found a Minfernal, and it was even the breed I wanted (P/P). Only saw 2 other people in all the times I checked -- I see more than that each time I look on regular CRZ servers.

My TVC DK has yet to see a Minfernal.
But I keep her parked out in Felwood - eventually I'll see one. :)

I have another suggestion: You can play on a top PVP server like KT where no one cares about pets.~ Haha

I would just like to say thank you so much, made a dk on tvc and got mage port to dal, flew to argent tourny and walked over the scourged whelp, found one waiting for me and caught it and then saw 3 more just sitting there waiting, super happy to finally have this pet :D

Seems like everyone is after the Minfernal. I've seen a lot of DK's with Tamer titles camping them on TVC.
I still haven't seen a single Minfernal, but I did get to 60, sold a Pandaren Fire Spirit, and bought flying. :mrgreen:

Hopefully I'll see a Minfernal one of these days.

Thanks to the original poster for the great tip on this server. Investing just a bit of time to run through the DK starting area on TVC (something I haven't done in awhile, it was great to reminisce) and then parking my DK near the Minfernal, I was able to snag one.

I just parked my DK there... when I would start playing WoW for the evening, I'd log on him first, run around a bit and usually see none (but see a few other 58 DKs). Then when calling it a night, I'd log back on him and check again before logging out. I did this quick checking for about 3 days and grabbed one.

Another great tip! I forgot about "transferring" money across realms via cageable pets :D I would really like to get my DK flying so I can farm some other hard-to-farm pets (Onyxia Whelpling, Giraffe Calf) for rares even if I don't play him past 60.

Went to Felwood. No Minfernals around ...
... but I did get killed by a Hordie. :evil:
Odd you got killed on TVC maybe it's because you made an Alliance toon, I've never been attacked. I did the same thing but as a horde and after checking every now and again I did eventually catch an uncommon and poor Minfernal. Used a stone on the poor one to get a rare. I've also managed to get a Fluxfire Feline rare and a few other rares I needed that are a little harder to come by on my own server.

Don't forget that Ravenholdt is also a non-CRZ realm; no need for everyone to go to TVC.

My husband had every wild-caught pet except the scourged whelpling and minfernal, so I advised him to create a character on Ravenholdt. He started a death knight there this past weekend, and within 24 hours he got both the scourged whelpling AND a minfernal!

If I go to the non-CRZ realm, will I still need to camp for a server reset, or are the pets available at other times?

I parked a 58DK in Felwood for the Minfernal and just checked it periodically and got one after just a couple days of checking a few times daily. I also picked up a Scourged Whelpling and Giraffe Calf on the first tries.

Whoooohoooooo! Many thanks to everyone who suggested Ravenholdt and TVC. I rolled a new toon on Ravenholdt last night, and I have my scourged whelping today! Its only an uncommon, but I am still thrilled. I could not farm for a rare, since my toon is only level 10 and kept getting killed in Sindragosa's Fall...but the uncommon spawned right under me, so it was no problem. The place was swarming with whelpings, and it was only 6 pm EST...no need to look for a reset time. I will either stone this one to upgrade it eventually, or keep leveling on Ravenholdt till this toon can survive. All in all, a VERY GOOD idea to try these non-CRZ realms. :D

(BTW, for folks who are reluctant to risk a PVP realm, as I was....up through level 10, the leveling area seems to be "non-contested", and nobody bothers you. I had no trouble till I went to Sindragosa's Fall, but that was from regular mobs, not Horde)
