I do not have it yet myself, but comments on thottbot state that it has a charge ability much like that of the hunter pet boar (extra damage on the next attack).

If you are going for this for the pet, don't even bother. As soon as I made it I walked out of Shattrath and tested it on the nearest regular mob... whatever the basilisks are that are just outside the city. It managed to hit the mob twice before dying. It didn't even last the full 30 seconds vs a single regular level 64 or so mob, and it did a total of maybe 700 damage, and this is on a 5 minute cooldown. Not even worth the materials to make it, much less the skill, time, rep and recipe cost.

i think the only reason this would be used is for...
Casters/hunters: kiting a mob and already having enough agro for the boar not to get attacked (for a hunter this is along-side his own pet).
Melle: for the extra damage in an instance, or for farming.

Note: this was not made to tank... u mentioned it did 700 damage in 2 hits? thats alot and if u think about it at a boss fight it might be able to do 3000 damage... that to me is almost like having a trinket that can DOT.

I can confirm to those wondering that this does in fact work in arena.

I decided to make one of these to test it out for the heck of it. I brought it into Alterac Valley and used it on one of the bunker commanders, an elite 69 with good armor. The boar was doing about 50 damage per swing with a 2.0 weapon speed. Then I went and took it against some lower level non-elite NPC's, and it was doing almost the same damage (do the frostwolves have way more AC than I give them credit for?)

Either way, that works out to a boost of 25 dps for 30 seconds - in the ideal situation where it immediately attacks and stays on a target, that's 750 damage or so. If you figure that the Nightseye Panther, another BOP JC trinket, provides a bonus of 320 AP - 23 dps before armor reduction - for only 12 seconds, you could call that a pretty decent addition to your burst dps.

Of course, that dps doesn't stack on top of your special abilities, either, and basically only improves your white dps. It also doesn't live long. I allowed the boar to aggro a frostwolf to see how much damage it could take. It dropped after five bites or so - I'm guessing 500 HP.

So is the boar worth it? If I had to choose between the boar or the NE panther, I would take the boar for PvE situations that don't involve AOE, especially for solo grinding. I've yet to decide whether or not I would rather take the boar over the panther for PvP or not. In battlegrounds, at least, the difference seems to be generally negligible, but I'm not sure how much I'll miss that extra level of stealth. I plan to fool around with it a bit in arenas and see how it goes.

I should also say that the boar appears to be on defensive mode and won't attack until you've attacked the target first. The boar will only use its extra power charge when used from a distance - which means you usually need to open with a ranged attack to get that charge to proc. That should make this an especially solid figurine for hunters, and perhaps also melee'ers who can drop the boar after the first strike and gain the charge if your target blinks/charges away.

The trinket itself doesn't seem to need Jewelcrafting to equip and use, so it *may* be possible to switch out Jewelcrafting at higher levels after you got what you wanted from Jewelcrafting. Dont know if Bliz would patch this though.

Does anyone know if this can be used in a raid instance (indoors)?
For example the Dragonmaw trinket cannot be used in a raid instance, I tried it on almost all but CoT Hyjal.

Testing results:

It hits for an average of 50 damage, and crits for 2x that.

It has a 2 sec attack speed, but it's slow to position itself, so you will most likely get 13-14 hits.

It has one ability Rushing Charge which it only uses when it is summoned at a distance from the mob. Since it's starting away from the mob you'll almost certainly loose a swing compared to if you summoned the boar while in melee range. This ability is made worse by...

It only charges an enemy within 20 yards. If you are outside 20 yards, he just sits there.

It has 450 hp

68 AP is the highest AP on a blue trinket which shouldn't be overlooked

Conclusion: 700-900 damage averaged over the 5 minute cd works out to 2-3 dps which is wholy uninspiring. As a burst damage trinket, a 23-30 dps increase for 30 secs seems pretty nice. So, for a shortish fight where you need a big burst, where the target doesn't aoe, and where you are in melee range, this is the trinket for you!

Hopefully the Khorium version is better...

No one has mentioned that this is easy, cheap and safe (no fails) way to powerlevel Jewelcrafting 370-375.

I don't think that i've ever been as disappointed with a trinket since I crafted an Arcanite Dragonling back in the days of olde.

This waste of materials that resemble a boar hits for around 50-100 damage every few seconds, after a charge that does not interrupt, then simply disappears. With a measly 700hp it wouldn't even work as a substitute target.

It should only be crafted for a skill point at best.

I'll make it just for the 68ap, and even if it doesn't hit that hard, some is better than none, right? How many fights have you been in that have been down to the wire.....you know, the ones you'd have won if only you were able to get just one more shot off? Anyone happen to know what the CD is on this little piggy?

I'm a warrior, and hitting revered with Lower City today, so gonna craft this and test it. Will report my findings here.

The boar is gimp, hits for around 60 dmg slowly, and dies in one hit in pvp. Died in 3 hits from a lvl 68 mob. GG crap trinket.

Comentado por Thottbot

if you ask me the summoning of the boar is simply a bonus, as the AP makes it worth using in many cases.
the boar does have it's uses, namely hunter traps and the like.

Comentado por Thottbot

these kind of pets are not supposed to deal dmg, you guys should be able to do enough dmg yourself, BUT - imagine if a you attack a hunter, he places his trap and... what happens now? you summon your boar to immolate it for the trap! just think about how much the hunter will cry, i already did that many times with the barov trinket and lokseys dog whistle. so its just one more pet to immolate against hunters.

Comentado por Thottbot

Hunters now have 2 pets to chain distance pull heavy hitting mobs with if you sac it

Comentado por Thottbot

possible to use this in arena?

imba 5vs5, 5 boars :P

Comentado por Thottbot

trinket...cd<15min...shouldn't be a problem

Comentado por Thottbot

yeah when you create it it binds

Comentado por Thottbot

tbh its very useful for say holy paladins that have to grind for proffesions or solo questing when they cant seem to get an extra body, the extra damage from the boar might not be much but its extra damage for a holy paladin that doesnt deal much damage in the first place

Comentado por Thottbot

Is it just me or has the boar been buffed? I took a three month break and after coming back it seems like the boar is hitting slightly harder and has more hp. Can anyone verify?

Comentado por Thottbot

Like most seemingly useless items in this game...this boar actually rocks for pvp. Its wicked for interrupting your opponent's heals,casts and flag taking. The best use I found for it was against enemy rogues,drop the boar and watch em waste every cooldown they have trying to get back into stealth. Felsteel boars auto attack > vanish. Armoured boars also look very cool :).

Comentado por Thottbot

Can you "use" the trinket (i.e. summon the boar) while in catform ?

I suppose not. Will do it anyways cause it`s still a +68 AP trinket !

Will have the answer to my question somewhere in 2009 :)

It's going to take you over a year?
