Baradin Fox Farming

I've spent my fair share of time on tol barad peninsula hunting for the very elusive fox kit, and have come to know the area like the back of my hand. I still haven't gotten my very own baby fox, but nevertheless, I figured I'd make it a little easier on those who haven't already memorized the area. Sharing is caring right? :)



Click on the image above to enlarge.

There are a total of 16 spawn points, and sometimes the foxes will re-spawn right after you've killed one.

Players should be careful when killing foxes just south of cape of lost hope since both the horde and alliance graveyards and rez spots are located there. if you play on a normal/PVE server, then ignore this piece of information. :P

So happy hunting everyone. Keep your spirits up even though I know it can be a real drag to have to endure both a very low drop rate and the potential for harassment and ganking (on PVP servers).

Back to the hunt!

  1. I just started Tol Borad yesterday (mostly focusing on the dailies so far, but killing foxes that I came across). This is very helpful, really appreciate it! This grind will be about as painful as the old days of Emerald Whelpling farming I guess, but I'll enjoy it since not too many people are going to end up with this pet. This and the shale spider are unique in that they're BoP drops, and I sort of like that because it sets the hardcore collectors apart from the casuals.

  2. @Harval: "it sets the hardcore collectors apart from the casuals." yes and no, imo. it could also prove that luck is luck/rng is rng and even someone who absolutely has no desire for vanity pets can obtain it just by accidentally agro'ing and killing a fox.

  3. @Quintessence - Well yeah, of course. Still, the foxes are not hostile so typically unless you know this pet exists and are specifically looking for it you won't get it. I have been pretty much the only one on my server killing them so far.

    But yeah, like all pets it's RNG based. I still think it represents things better than the other rare pets since they are BoU. Means something if they ever make another collection number achievement.

  4. Thanks for the map Quintessence :D
    I won't be 85 for a while but the fox kit is my most-wanted pet, so I'm dying to know, is Tol Barad Peninsula a PvP zone on a PvE server similar to Wintergrasp?

  5. @Kintarah: glad i could help! from what i hear, you won't be flagged for PVP on the peninsula on a normal/PVE server. if you head across the bridge to tol barad (where the battle is), you will be flagged though.

  8. I've been farming for over four months.. I still haven't gotten it. :< I've moved on to farming for others- I'm too frustrated with foxes right now! xD
