Zandalari vs Beasts of Fable

The four Zandalari pets might just be under-appreciated. I've only ever encountered them once in the queue, anyway. Maybe you saw them more. Maybe what you saw was me, though. Anyway...

They all have very similar combinations of abilities, but only one of those pets can use its real potential in normal conditions. Against the Beasts of Fable, though, these guys really shine for me. Why? Well, it takes 3 rounds to reach their maximum potential. If you use this strategy against a normal pet, that third round just feels wasted.

PTR - New Achievements and Beasts of Fable Update

I was previously concerned that the Beasts of Fable breakdown quests would be a single random daily because only one quest was showing up at a time when I checked the quest giver, but today I greeted her and she revealed all three quests at once, so yay.

With that awesome update out of the way, here's some news about achievements...

Beasts - Recommendations

While reviewing the Beasts of Fable, I outlined several abilities that can be used to easily defeat them, but I didn't go into how to obtain those pets. Here are some very potent abilities for fighting the Beasts of Fable, which pets have these abilities, how to get the pets, and to conclude the post, my winning team.

Fabled Pet Supplies in 5.2

Each day you can do a daily quest that rewards you with a special sack of pet supplies for defeating all 10 of the beasts of fable. I've noticed that this special sack appears to have a better chance at better drops than the lesser sacks do. I'm going to track it, at least for a while, by updating this post each day with what I got, because why not. And for those of you who like to remind me on an hourly basis about how lucky I am with drops, I've provided some ammo for you.

Beasts of Fable

The beasts of fable are not as scary as the hype led me to believe. I've experimented with several different lineups for each of the beasts and most ideas tend to work. I did come up with a few pets that can face any of the beasts easily, so it's no problem to run through them all without changing the lineup. Also, It's no use to try for experience with these pets; with my safari hat on I got 319 at level 20.

Here's a quick rundown of the beasts. I'm not going to link all of those abilities, though, because holy crap.
