Nasty wolf! Quick, defeat him!
Luckily that's not too hard.Version 1: Bring an Unborn Val'kyr (2 2 1) and Ikky (2 1 1):
- Curse of Doom
- Haunt
- Bring in Level Pet (optional - gives about 700-800 XP)
- Swap to Ikky
- Black Claw
- Flock - Hungry Icefang dies
- Mop up the random critters with your remaining pets. It's super easy.
Version 2: Alternatively, a Zandalari Kneebiter (2 2 2) and any Level 25 pet can do the same mostly:
- Bloodfang
- Black Claw
- Hunting Party
- Bloodfang - Hungry Icefang dies
- Swap to your Level Pet
- Swap to back to your Kneebiter or your third pet and kill the remaining pets off, they are easy prey :-)
