Beat Jeremy Feasel Darkmoon Faire Master Pet Tamer


Each month when the Darkmoon Faire arrives, you'll get your chance to fight against Master Pet Tamer Jeremy Feasel and his pet menagerie. There's a daily quest that rewards you with a bag of pet goodies and the chance to obtain the Darkmoon Eye, which is a pet that matches one of the creatures you'll face when you battle against Feasel.

Feasel's pets may seem unbeatable at first with their heavy-htting attacks and an annoying stun (stuns seem to be just as annoying in pet battles as they are in PVP, right?), but if you bring the right pets, you can actually use Feasel as a leveling trainer each day during the Darkmoon Faire. He's located on on the western side of the Faire:


Jeremy Feasel's pets include:

  • Judgement, a Magic pet which is a giant eyeball (this pet's name is Blizzard's spelling choice)
  • Honky-Tonk, a Mechanical pet which is a Darkmoon Tonk
  • Fezwick, a Beast pet which is a Darkmoon Monkey

To fight Feasel's pets, you'll want to use:

  • Onyxian Whelpling
  • Fel Flame
  • Almost any Mechanical or leveling pet you wish



The Onyxian Whelpling makes mincemeat out of Judgement with its Scorched Earth and fire attacks. Honky-Tonk is no match for a butt-whoopin' from Fel Flame. Your final pet - whatever it might be - will probably only need to use one or two attacks against final pet Fezwick. That's how strong the Whelpling and Fel Flame are against this team. Generally, your attacks will be (with a few extra basic attacks thrown in if you need a bit more firepower):

Scorched Earth > Deep Breath > Conflag > Burn > Immolate > Conflagrate > BURN BURN BURN!

Just set everything on fire against Mr. Feasel. Also, don't forget to switch in your last pet for some attacks! Sometimes your Whelpling and Fel Flame will be so potent against Feasel's pets that they'll 2-man the entire operation.

Tip: If you don't own an Onyxian Whelpling because you weren't around for the event a few years ago that granted the pet, don't worry! Some alternate pets you may use include:

  • Crimson Whelpling (drop, available off the AH)
  • A second Fel Flame (easy to get a second Fel Flame in Shadowmoon Valley)
  • Spawn of Onyxia (spawns right outside Onyxia's lair in Dustwallow Marsh)

Also, if your pets aren't blue-quality, don't worry! As long as you bring the right team, you can beat Feasel! Once, I used a Fel Flame, Fluxfire Feline, and a green-quality Wild Crimson Hatchling that I was leveling up. It's also a good idea to level up any mid-level Mechanical pets you have since they'll have the best chance at defeating the monkey at the end with their attacks.


Easy peasy.

Remember: DO THIS DAILY EVERY DAY! You have a chance to score your very own Darkmoon Eye. And, once you have this pet, keep doing the daily! You can cage it and sell your extra(s) on the auction house!

Here's a video of the fight. It normally goes better, but this time Feasel's pets really whooped me:

Hallow's End New Pets and Toys


With the arrival of patch 6.0 comes several new pets, as well as updates to the achievement system related to the popular world events like Hallow's End, the Lunar Festival, and Winter Veil. In addition to the Sinister Squashling and the Feline Familiar (which I'm sure you already have, right?)  2014 brings two new pets to the Hallow's End event, as well as some toys and a crazy awesome Lich King costume.

Toys and pets cost 150 "Tricky Treats," which you get from visiting candy buckets around Azeroth and the dailies at major cities. You'll find quests for Alliance around Stormwind and Goldshire while Horde quests are located in the above-ground courtyard of Lordaeron and within Brill.



Your new pets are Widget the Departed and the Cursed Birman, which are two ghostly cats. According to flavor text on the Cursed Birman:

"One of this cat's nine lives has returned to haunt the living by yowling loudly when you're trying to sleep."

And, regarding Widget the Departed, the flavor text says:

"Not even death would stop this kitten's insatiable curiosity."


You'll definitely want to participate in some dailies each day during the Hallow's End festival if you're aiming to get both pets, as well as a toy or the Lich King costume. I found that my alts that were at least level 70 with most (or all) of the flight paths on each continent were best for farming up the 150 required treats.

I used my 87 Alliance priest to farm up the 150 treats for the Cursed  Birman and my 72 Horde mage to get the treats necessary for Widget. I'll probably farm up the Little Wickerman toy with my warlock main (another 150 treats), and am farming the "Exquisite Costume Set: "The Lich King" with my rogue alt. You'll need 500 (!) treats to buy your Lich King costume.

Tip: Do you already have the achievements for visiting all the candy buckets across Azeroth? Even though achievements are account-wide, don't worry, you can still track your progress if you have an alt who can visit the candy buckets.




Just click on your achievements for Hallow's End, and you'll see little green check marks for the buckets you've already visited. Makes it a LOT easier finding the buckets you haven't visited since every flight path stop won't always have a bucket... it's rather annoying to land somewhere in the middle of Kalimdor and see a few lonely tents and a couple of NPCs with no candy buckets in sight!
