Oily Slimeling

Battle Pet· Wrath of the Lich KingWILDPETMagic type
Pet Battle

Source: Pet Battle. These living blobs of ooze lack even the most rudimentary form of intelligence, but that doesn't mean they can't be your friend. Magic type. If you are just stepping into Borean Tundra and are like me in that you are out to capture all of the pets in the zone, start with these slick little guys!

The Oily Slimeling is a wild pet found in Borean Tundra, Northrend, and can be captured by engaging it in a pet battle.

Guide awaiting review

1

Head to Scalding Pools

Travel to the Scalding Pools in Borean Tundra and search the pools of water there for the Oily Slimeling.

2

Hunt for a Rare

When battling an Oily Slimeling, it will call two additional pets to assist it, and those companions are drawn randomly from the other pets found in Borean Tundra — this means you may encounter rare versions of other zone pets during the same fight.

3

Try a Different Realm

If you cannot find any Oily Slimelings spawned in the area after an extended search, try switching to a different realm, as spawn availability can vary between servers.

Tips

  • The Oily Slimeling's NPC ID is 62697, which can be used with NPC scanning tools to help locate it.

  • Acidic Goo combined with Corrosion and Absorb is a highly effective ability rotation that can defeat an opponent pet quickly while restoring the Slimeling's health.
