If you wander into The Writhing Mire in Spires of Arak, you can find an egg in a cave that will spawn a rare mob named Varasha. After you kill her, you can loot a nearby nest to get the Hydraling pet.
I'm not gonna lie, this mob hit my 99 rogue pretty hard. I actually had to vanish the first time because cheat death proc'd. I've been mindlessly collecting treasures on my rogue for the crazy XP, and I just wandered into this cave to get the pet.
Varasha is immune to stuns and incapacitates (gouge), so if you're reliant on stuns and control to kill (and you're trying to get this pet without gear at a level that's less than 100), make sure you're careful about the mechanics. Avoid the poison puddles and strafe when Varasha does her spew move.
If I'd been paying more attention, I could have avoided more of this damage....
To get this pet, you'll travel to the western coast of Spires of Arak to The Writhing Mire. You should see a little "X" on your map that will let you know there's something to kill nearby. It might look like the X refers to a spot on the surface at the water's edge, but that's not the case.
You actually want to go in the cave that's just beside the water. Inside the cave, you'll find a little pedestal and an egg. If you click on the egg, you'll spawn Varasha, she'll come marching into the cave, and you can kill her. After the kill, you'll need to loot the egg again to get the pet.
The Hydraling is an Aquatic pet and he has an interesting skill set. He has some Aquatic attacks (as is expected), plus he has Call Lightning. It should be fun to level this pet and slot him in for some battles...
