How to Obtain
Wild Capture
Wild pets are captured, not looted. Find one in Tanaris, start a pet battle, bring it below 35% health, then use a trap before finishing the battle.
Stinkbug: ability choices and unlocks
The table connects Stinkbug to its recorded abilities, grouped by combat slot. Open an ability to inspect its effects and other pets with the same move.
| Ability | Slot | Unlock level |
|---|---|---|
| Scratch | Slot 1 | 1 |
| Flank | Slot 1 | 10 |
| Hiss | Slot 2 | 2 |
| Survival | Slot 2 | 15 |
| Swarm | Slot 3 | 4 |
| Apocalypse | Slot 3 | 20 |
- Slot 1 pairs Scratch (level 1) with Flank (level 10). These share a slot; a loadout cannot use both at once.
- Slot 2 pairs Hiss (level 2) with Survival (level 15). These share a slot; a loadout cannot use both at once.
- Slot 3 pairs Swarm (level 4) with Apocalypse (level 20). These share a slot; a loadout cannot use both at once.
Before leveling this pet for a team, check which of these alternatives your plan needs. Compare its in-game health, power and speed with the requirements of the encounter. A matching ability name alone does not establish that two pets are interchangeable.
