This pet drops off of Jadefang, a rare spider located within the Crumbling Depths caves of Deepholm. To gain access to the rarespawn requires the use of an item provided from the Therazane faction daily, Underground Economy. See our Community Guide: Tiny Shale Spider for details.

With a bit of ingenuity, engineers can also utilize Nitro Boosts to reach Jadefang. The belt enchant will sometimes malfunction and launch the player into the air, offering another way up into the rarespawn's cave.

If you are a NE you can get to Jadefang easily. Simply stand below her cave opening and let one of the worms kill you. Once you release you can fly into her tunnel via flying wisp form and rez right in front of her. This may work with other classes as well but I am not sure they stay on the flying ghost mount in the tunnel.

I found this video helpful since I wasn't entirely sure where I needed to be. I waited a week before the quest ever showed up and saw my npc scan go off 3 times before the daily underground economy was available from ricket(inside the crumbling depths) (you cannot see her when the quest isn't available). You cannot track her from above as a hunter or with any buff. You have to into the cave to find her. After I got the quest I followed the instructions!

Finally got this one. I feel kind of bad, but not really. I got up there and there was a NE druid sitting there. But Jadefang was right behind him! So I ran up to tag him and I actually had to vanish at first cause he almost killed me, lol. I was sitting there going pleasedontcomebackpleasedontcomeback in my mind as i got my health back up to try again. Druid still sitting there, then goes "away" and i tag Jadefang again and killed him the second time and got my pet. Snooze you lose, right? ;)

This turned out to be way easier to get than I expected, thanks to Quintessence's guide. I threw myself up there last night, but Jadefang wasn't spawned. Decided to go back early this morning, figuring very few people would be on, and there she was. Early morning might be about the best time to get her, since there is less likely to be competition. I saw other people in the Crumbling Depths, but no one else showed any inclination for flinging themselves into Jadefang's tunnel.

So it may be known I did this on my rogue with nitro boots and Sub spec for shadow step. I would be under the ledge on the white stone and trigger my nitro boots. You would want them to fail. once failed u get shot in the air.best if you already tageted one of the lil spiders before doin since this is alittle fast ^^ once in air shadow step and there you have it.

Also note. JadeFang did a furry attack that was dropping my HP really fast. I killed him with 12% of my health left. Happy Farmin.

If you're on a PvP server be careful of people who are camping the cave - but not for Jadefang! I blasted my way up only to find a party of the opposite faction waiting for me (>_<)Needles to say I was killed, and judging by the few skeletons I wasn't the only one. After I ressurected I logged off and went to sleep. But logging on this morning made everything so much sweeter - Jade was there to greet me :D She gave me a Tiny Shale Spider after I promised to look after it :)

Important to know that you cannot obtain the quest item necessary to launch yourself into the cave unless you have a particularly daily which is phased until you open up the quest chain.

I didn't know about this pet until the rare warning came up for Jadefang, and I looked up information about it after wandering the Crumbling Depths Caves in vain. By the time I figured out how to get up into that alcove (I used the bomb method), Jadefang was gone (killed I guess).  So I simply logged there and checked back the next morning and there she was! The pet was a drop after killing Jadefang.

Just got him. Camped a couple hours last night, logged off...when i came back there she was.

 

I did the Therazane quest string long ago so was unable to use the bomb to get up there.  I did the turn the wifi of and on trick to fly all the way in.  Worked perfectly.  Feel like a cheater...alittle.

I feel kind of bad. I've only just come back to WoW after a couple of years away, so I've been collecting loads of pets, and today was my first chance at the TSS. There was a night elf hunter (I'm Horde) in the cave, trying and trying to boost up to the cave - obviously after Jadefang as a pet. I used the technique in the guide, got straight up in one go, killed Jadefang and got the TSS. Oh well, at least she'll know how to get up there for next time.

This pet is actually easier to get than Pebble . Once you have Underground Economy (and get the bomb) its just a matter of when Jadefang spawns. Underground economy is offered when Pebble is not. Once you have the bomb line your self up with your back to the cave and put the bomb in front of you. Spawns usually every 3-4 hours. You also can find a chest in the cave with Green armor. You must have NPC scan add-on and delete the Cache folder if you saw him before but didn't get him.

if you play on a device with a wifi on/off button this pet can be gotten with out rep grinding! go to the start of the cave and mount/flight form and then turn off and then right back on your wifi and move quick to the cave, it might take a couple of tries but it should work! its how i got mine!

When you've got the quest it is really easy to get up there. I just started farming this yesterday and got it today! My method was basically just afking in the spawning spot while watching a movie or doing other stuff.. I had to mess with enemy players every once in a while but it finally spawned and I was able to get this awesome little guy. Good luck to you all! :)

I managed to blast myself up on the ledge with him by accident, didn`t even know he was in that room. He is cute sure, but a bit tiny for my taste.

Out of all the spiders I've seen, I don't think I've ever seen one quite as extraordinary as this. Although I'm not sure I can really classify it as a true arachnid. For starters, it doesn't have eight legs. That, and typical spiders don't look like shiny gemstones with seven sparkling green eyes. Well, the Smolderweb is kinda sparkly, so I suppose exceptions can be made.
