What are Spirit Beasts
Spirit Beasts are a unique pet family that only Beast Mastery Hunters can obtain due to Exotic Beasts. This pet family first appeared in Wraith of the Lich King expansion. All of these pets are referred to Tenacity specialization. They are unique due to Spirit Mend spell. This allows them to heal you or your teammates, making them more useful for any type of content. Every Spirit Beast has a unique model that makes them so desired by players. But these pets are pretty hard to get. Most of them are rare spawns with a mini-game or puzzle to tame. You have to make an effort to get them.
We have some guides on how to get other Spirit Beasts, so don’t miss out on them:
How to tame Spirit Beast Aradan
Recently, WoW Secret Finding Discord server member waiting4paul solved the secret of taming Aradan. To do this, you need to:
- Be Beast Mastery Hunter (because without the Exotic Beasts passive, you can’t tame Spirit Beasts).
- Enter The Rookery dungeon (solo, with a group, or as a Follower Dungeon so that nobody interrupts the taming process).
- Defeat the first boss, Kyrioss.
- Stick to the left and leave the Rookery by the stairs, and find Spirit Beast Aradan wandering near the cliff.
- Go down the cliff and dive into the water at /way #2248 29.06 36.21 coordinates and pick up Void-Scarred Stormhammer from the bottom.
- Make your way back to Aradan, pick him as a target, and use the obtained hammer to make him hostile.
- Tame Spirit Beast Aradan.
And that’s it! Congratulations! Keep in mind that Void-Scarred Stormhammer isn’t consumed after use. That means you can tame Aradan as many times as you want. Or even help your buddies!
Five models of Aradan
Aradan has five slightly different appearances. They mostly differ in beaks and feather ”ears”, but you might want to tame a certain one. Aradan’s appearance is generated randomly once you enter the dungeon, so you might need to spend a few tries to tame Spirit Beast Aradan you like the most. So, here are all five models of Aradan that are in the game right now:
A mystery to the community
Aradan has been a mystery for the community since The War Within release when players first saw him. First, players found out that you can use Beast Lore on him to make sure that he is, in fact, tameable. After some time, Blizzard confirmed that he is a new Spirit Beast that Beast Mastery Hunters can obtain:
“We’ve been seeing chatter from some hunters thinking that Aradan isn’t available to tame yet. While capturing this secretive stormrook isn’t as obvious as most tameable hunter pets, we wanted to confirm to those of you looking to tame Aradan that there’s nothing preventing the capture of this spirit beast.
Good luck taming this blue birb!”
— Blizzard
So players started trying different tactics to tame Spirit Beast Aradan and solve this puzzle, eventually. They were experimenting with soloing the dungeon, releasing other stormrooks, killing all mobs of some type, and even drinking themselves into unconsciousness. But none of these guesses ever helped. Still, the community kept trying, and finally, we found the answer.
Final thoughts
Despite being a mystery for quite some time, Spirit Beast Aradan is finally conquered by players. Now, every Beast Mastery Hunter can add him to their collection if they desire to. This was a fun puzzle to solve, and we are waiting for more in the future.
