This pet may be used by non-engineers. Players must complete all three escort quests to earn a final quest, [50]An OOX of Your Own in Booty Bay, which provides this pet as a reward. Note that the pet is BoU, so it can also be found at auction.

I finally found the last 2 of the quest drops i needed to get this pet while doing a scavenger hunt for my guild. I was so excited but when I learned the pet i was vastly disappointed to see it was only a uncommon pet. Well, here is hoping to find a Battle-Stone to up its quality.

It's nice that these are BoU but I accidentally learned a second one (had farmed it to sell it) and because they're not cageable, I can't get rid of the duplicate unless I release it. =/

After hundreds of kills, reading pages of old information, trying out completed quest macros and chat requests.... i found the OOX0-09/HL laying on a rock in the

middle of a lake waiting for me to find him.  Just an easy find and follow, no more looking for a drop!

With the amount of hazzle to get this companion, you'd think they would make the companion rarity for pet battles into blue.

I had a LOT of issues with these quests. The Hinterlands one glitched and I had to contact customer support to restart the quest. Then I still didn't get it and contacted them again, and they told me I never got the Feralas quest, which I know I did. For those of you who have issues, you're not alone. Contact customer support and if nothing else they can help tell you which quest you're missing.

You need to do all 3 quest lines with the beacons before you get the pet. Just wanted to clear that up for you :)

This pet was ridiculous to get, post-cata. I got it on my ex-main quickly pre-cata, but last week, it took me 5 days (3 in Hinterlands). Feralas was quick, as listed yeti drop it in a few kills. Tanaris took 100+ kills outside ZF & then I did 2 full runs of ZF before it dropped. Hinterlands was absurd. 200+ kills, then did ALL the quests, then 300+ more kills. Went to BB, showed that I didn't meet requirements for OOX of my own, but turned in tanaris quest, and I got the pet!! Confusing..

Gnarl Leafbrother dropped 00x-22 FE for me in Feralas, co-ords 68.5/47.5, or halfway between Dire Maul and Camp Mojache for those who don't have co-ords.
He was the first kill in the zone for me.

A highborn poltergeist attacked me in Darkmist Ruins in Feralas. Surprise! That was the final escort quest, coming about a year after I'd given up farming for it.

Yeah, Brianni, that is MUCH easier than getting some mithril and some jade. (can you see the sarcasym in my words?)

By the way, this pet should make a nice replacement for the Rocket Chicken, just minus the rockets... and the lots of whispers from players asking were you got it... and the taking off and blowing up...

You can still get this pet in 4.1
The Shattering changed the Ferelas quest, if you did the old one it no longer counts and you'll need to do the new one before you can get the pet.

Once done;
You may also get an error about not meeting the requirements while claiming the pet (I did) just accept the quest again and it should go through awarding the pet.

Arwin, I just got this pet today, and this series of quests was very glitchy for me. I would just keep trying to talk to Oglethorpe Obnoticus until he gives it to you. It took a long time for him to actually hand over the pet, for some reason.

I'm neutral with SWC and have done all the escorts but I'm still not offered my chicken. Do I need to be friendly to pick up a quest? I was able to turn-in at neutral, seems to me I should be able to be given a quest. /sigh

For me killing the yetis in Feralas close to the chicken worked fine, it didn't take too long for the beacon to drop.

In The Hinterlands, I started out killing sludges, but after several tries, for several hours, I decided to try the mangy silvermanes, and got it on wolf #5-.- So if you're having a hard time with getting the beacon from sludges, try a mangy silvermane. I'm just sayin'...

In Tanaris, all I had to do was a couple of runs in Zul'Farak, which is no stress as a lvl 80:)

If you are unsure which quests (of the three) you have completed, the GMs will be able to find out for you so you can keep questing for this pet. Happy farming.

Wondering which OOX quests you've done?

Macro 1:

/run f,z=CreateFrame('frame'),{[485]='The Hinterlands',[351]='Tanaris',[2766]='Feralas'};f:RegisterEvent('QUEST_QUERY_COMPLETE')

Macro 2:

/run local s,t;f:SetScript('OnEvent',function() t=GetQuestsCompleted();for c,v in pairs(z) do if t[c] then s='' else s=' not' end print('You have'..s,'found OOX in',v) end end);QueryQuestsCompleted()

Press the 1st macro, then the 2nd, the game will tell which OOX quests you've done. (Macro author unknown.)

This is the one of the few mechanical pets that doesn't require engineering to create. All you have to do is escort OOX-22, fending off swarms of yetis, gorillas, and gnolls, all the way to the Feralas coast. Then guide OOX-09 through the Hinterlands, fighting oozes, wildkin, and packs of invisible wolves. Next hit Tanaris to lead OOX-17 across half the zone, thwarting scorpids, basilisks, hyenas, rocs, and bandits. Yup, that's much easier than getting a few mithril bars and some jade… but I'm not bitter.
