Ook this quest in the dooker.

Kommentar von vassalation

Gizmo has the debuff Skittish on him. Turn walking on (default bound to num pad /) to catch him easier.

Kommentar von Lisq33

I can't pick up Gizmo, every time I try it says "Failed" and he's running away. Ffs why we are even paying with real money for this neverending bugged game?

Kommentar von iceman994

Go to PVP Warmode. No people there easy to catch and it wont run away. If too many people try it will keep running away. You must be alone to do this.

Kommentar von He11cat

even with walk turned on, Gizmo would run away as i started to pick him up. i found that going into stealth helps

Kommentar von Kapricious

~~If there are a lot of people there, pick one of his spots, then don't move - anyone moves and he runs again. Very annoying.~~

Okay - i take it back, but i'm leaving it just in case - i had to chase him into a wall where people weren't and finally got him.

Kommentar von globalmenace

It seems that you have to dismiss your companion pet, otherwise you cannot capture Gizmo.

This is an hypothesis. But the facts are:

I managed to complete the catch cast 3 times and… nothing happened.
After dismissing my pet, my first completed catch cast bar completed the quest.

Kommentar von Hyrul

Tips to get catch the ever-running raccoon:

- Turn on War Mode. This can be done in your capital city, Valdrakken or Dornogal, from your talents panel. This will make the place (almost) empty, less people to scare him off.

- Turn on walking mode. Default hotkey is / on your numpad.

- If he keeps running away anyway even if no one's bothering him, just wait at one of the places he usually stops. He'll eventually stop right next to you and you'll be able to catch him then.

If you are on War Mode, maybe don't attack opposite faction players on sight, they're probably just trying to get the quest done.

Kommentar von harrisonw

Does anyone have an issue where talking to Sully does nothing but have him say, "Now this is a party! How are ye?"

Kommentar von Vampire2008

A disgusting quest. I think this is a complete disrespect to Sully.

Kommentar von Lushen

Anyone else having trouble getting the instructions from Sully? He just comments on the party. I've dropped and reacquired the quest twice already. Yes, I talked to Breanna and chose 'raccoon'.

Kommentar von priestguy

Best Tips to Catch Gizmo

Other players are NOT your friends while trying to finish this quest. Even if the pet stops within range of where you are standing, if others are around, it will "bug out" as others try to click him...or run away.

Reduce the number of other players around you. Use warmode or even better, have a friend group with you on a low-pop role-playing realm.
After I was able to get away from others, I approached Gizmo using an invisibility potion. I stopped moving as soon as I could range the pet, then clicked on him to loot him. Even though my invisibility dropped when I clicked on him, he did not run away since I wasn't moving.

Kommentar von Kurte

This is the dumbest quest in the history of WoW. It literally doesnt matter what you do, he just runs away.

Kommentar von thebl4ckd0g

This is what worked for me (after sitting there for 30-45 mins. to no avail).

- go back to org, turn warmode on.
- fly out to the location again.
- fly back, port back to org.
- turn warmode off.
- fly from jade forest entry point BACK to the place.
- when I got there, NOBODY was there.

I was easily able to capture him at that point.

Kommentar von Richesse

The person who thought of this quest got to have an as^whooping.....
Anyway, no need for special things.... I just kept following the bugger, after a while I got the chance to pick it up.(##RESPBREAK##)272##DELIM##Uchur##DELIM##

Kommentar von Endslikecrazy

This one is F'ed up for sully damn..

Kommentar von JimiDragon

This is a bizarre happenstance. I was absolutely alone with Warmode off. I went to the gravesite and Gizmo appeared and ran away. I then hit / and walked to Gizmo. I right-clicked him, and suddenly he disappeared and I was surrounded by hundreds of other players. I did not get Gizmo.

It seems impossible to get with so many other players.

Best of luck, everyone.

Kommentar von Dawnmist

Do yourself a favor and get a friend with an alt on a low-pop realm to group up as leader to do this if you aren't already doing it on a low-pop realm. Anyone running, hunter pets out, people mounting up around you - all make the wretched raccoon keep running. If you stand by the panda just down from the flight path, it will eventually stop by you, but it takes a few seconds to catch even then.

Kommentar von Nelfgirl

The Raccoon is in Serpents Overlook/ There is tombstone near a tree and you use the torch to get the Raccoon to appear then you have try and catch him. I saw someone comment in game walk not run. Took three failed attempts before I caught him.

Kommentar von Azynthas

As a mage, I used Invisibility then just walked up to Gizmo and picked him up. If you’re not a mage or a rogue, try a potion - it literally took me 2 seconds to nab him this way.

Kommentar von KuroMikami

Imma try War Mode but this quest is just plain bad imo. Oh well it is what it is.

Kommentar von Gwez

During Mists of Pandaria campaign in Der Jadewald we meet the characters involved in this quest:

As an Alliance character, during SI:7 Bericht: Feuer vom Himmel you play as Sully "Die Gurke" McLeary, covered by sniper Amber Kearnen, and meet the raccoons Gizmo, who is soon shot dead, and Söckchen.
As an Horde character, during Späherbericht: Auf der richtigen Fährte you play as Schattenmeisterin Kiryn, covered by sniper Shokia, who marks Harmloser Waschbär to be shot dead.

Sully thinks it was Amber who shot Gizmo, while part of the community considered that it was actually Shokia. The fact that Harmless Raccoon title "Never hurt anyone" and description "In life, Gizmo never hurt a soul" are so similar can be interpreted as a comfirmation of this theory.

Now, in my opinion, this quest was so poorly written or well thought that ended being quite bizarre. Think it from the perspective of an Alliance player: we've been requested by Shokia's teammates, Schattenmeisterin Kiryn and Riko, to find them a pet and the quest leads us to ask Sully "Die Gurke" McLeary for directions on where he buried his pets, just to raise Gizmo as undead (because now apparently now Fackel von Pyrreth has this power...), give it to the Horde members who participated on its death (or even if not), in front of its former owner crying... just to have the poor raccoon abandoned 5 minutes later. I'm having a hard time trying to understand the motivation or logic of of any of the characters involved, but to add insult to injury, Sully has been one of the NPCs that appeared in the Trading Post during Dragonflight where he tries to pick a new pet but he's unable because he still misses Söckchen, which makes me particularly uncomfortable.

Kommentar von AlexL1118

Every attempt to catch him resets the catching bar in the middle, and I'm getting error message "Failed" together with "out of range", even if I'm standing straight on the pet. After few such failed attempts the pet is running away.

EDIT: I think I understood the problem. The event seems buggy, and we see the pet not at the same place where server sees it. This is why you can see groups of people in different places, and all these people are doing catching movements by their hands, while you do not see the pet there. However, there are rare cases when the visible pet location is identical to the server's pet location. In order to "farm" such moments, I followed the pet and tried to catch it all the time. Finally I caught the moment when the pet stopped for enough time, and the catching bar successfully reached the end; probably because at this moment the visible and server's location became identical. This is how I got the pet. And I did not enable "walking mode", otherwise it would be impossible to follow it.

Kommentar von sabotagemutineer

Waste of time on high pop realm.

Chase raccoon; Runs away
Stay still; Cast to catch fails
Stand where no one is standing; Raccoon never stops there
Turn War mode on; Players attack

Toggle walk mode did nothing.
Standing still did nothing.
Chasing did nothing.

I'll come back when this gets patched, waste of time.

Kommentar von iziezi73

OMFG THIS IS A TEST IN PATIENCE. After you summon Gizmo, WALK don't run, it'll scare him for EVERYONE not just you. Best bet is to pick one of the spots he goes back to frequently and just stand there, try to catch him next time he comes back. Took me nearly 30 min, but i FINALLY caught him. @.@

Kommentar von Totergott

War Mode or not - the dude does the same ^&*! either way. You have to be in the direction of looking at him to even be able to attempt picking him up (at least for me). I've seen people show up and get it in first few tries and others like me who had to sit for as Iong as I did. Also noticed that he does respawn after some time but spawns back at the grave quickly after - in case you're like me who had a raid marker and it disappears.

How I got him was I just stood at a spot where'd often run to and just kept trying and eventually got it.

I also found that when I flew away from the area all my input became lagged until I zoned out.

Kommentar von skinpinch

Forget war mode, forget walk. Just chase him until he runs into the building at the top of the second (middle) stair level and you can catch him there.

Kommentar von switchxa

This quest is pretty buggy. Clicking on Gizmo constantly fails right away even though he hasn't moved. Tried many time in many locations and had the same issue. I'll come back to this.

Kommentar von Bleakfiber

Whoever at Blizzard decided it would be fun to chase a racoon around, but not let the cast bar finish at 90% deserves a special place.

Kommentar von WillowFae

If you've made it to Serpent's Heart with 60% completion, you're on the right path. If you haven't gotten 60%, exhaust the dialogue of every NPC associated with this quest: Riko, Kiryn, Breanni and Sully. Do not proceed before you've made the 60% mark; the quest has been reported to bug.
- Go to Serpent's Overlook and use the Torch of Pyrreth at a graveyard shaded by an orange tree. Serpent's Overlook will be on raised hills and has a flightpath assigned to it.
- Gizmo will spawn and begin to run. Patiently pursue and continue to follow him; do not attempt to catch him as he will surge forward with every attempt. He will slide down a path and then abruptly go back up. Don't panic. Follow as normal.
- He stopped for me about thirty seconds into the chase and I was able to pick him up with ease.

Kommentar von handyReaper

One thing that helps actually catching Gizmo is to have an "Interact with Target" hotkey turned on under Settings > Controls. When the little hand icon shows up over Gizmo's head, hit that key and you'll start doing the action.

Kommentar von Eirtae

Using an invis potion seemed to help. I used "Potion of the Hushed Zephr" (found in Dragonflight) to get close to Gizmo and it seemed to work out.

Kommentar von Dizenian

Shortly before finalizing my blood pact with Satan to get assistance with finally completing this bulls#!7 buggy quest, I decided to hearth and turn on war mode.

Do that. Go do it right now. Buy a 1 star Hushed Zephyr potion, let the little bastard sit still, and walk up to him while invisible in War Mode. First try once I got back to the area in War Mode. maybe 10 seconds total.

Stop reading this comment. Go do it.

Kommentar von darkanimeangel

Couple tips:

1) It might help you to use a keybinding to capture gizmo.
Go to Options > Keybinding > Targeting > Interact with Target (should be "F" by default)
You'll need to click gizmo initially however, using the keybinding might help as you capture him as you chase him around.
ALSO, make sure you're facing him when you try to capture him.

2) Gizmo the Pure was not instantly mailed to me took about 5 minutes or so.
Thought I would mention it since I didn't see mention of it anywhere else.

Kommentar von Crist2030

Anyone have any idea why the cast stops even when he doesnt run away?

Kommentar von smartgamerchick

Where do you go once you get into Serpent's heart? I went west, tried to count paces, flew all around and I cant find where to spawn the thinig.

Kommentar von Wyspe

For those not able to figure out 10 paces east and 40 south ( like me, I flew around for ages), here are the coords to the grave in the Jade Forest: /way 43.34, 68.76
I'm assuming you still have to fly to the bridge and to the path to the left first for the game to register you are on the right path. Then you can fly up to the cluster of housing south of the bridge, thats overlooking the orchard.

Note: Warmode is a BIG time saver. I recommend you do that. Then toggle slow walk, back up into a spot he stops at and wait. GL. The cast can bug out at 90% for no reason.

Kommentar von Arktane

Hello secret-sleuthing friends!

Gizmo can easily be captured via entering War Mode:

You must enter War Mode and return to the area, as Gizmo will be prompted to move if there are any players nearby moving too quickly.
Once you are there, toggle Walk Mode / RP Walk and tap the forward movement key to inch yourself bit by bit towards Gizmo's location after they have stopped moving.
When at the maximum range, click on Gizmo or use the Interact key and you should capture them.

If you continue to have issues, try using a Trank des verstummten Zephyrs as well. Hope this helps!

Kommentar von Chrisw6129

I just chased Gizmo constantly (no walking), constantly clicking him, and after about 45 seconds of doing this, he just stopped and let me pick him up.

Kommentar von yvell

My Partner was getting a "No Target found" Error and could not spawn gizmo, she had not done any of the quests in the zone so she did all the quest relating to the serpent's heart area and once she finished the quest where the sha disappears she was able to summon gizmo.

Kommentar von Ookiebear

If you're a Hunter, use the Camouflage talent. I spent 35 Minutes trying to grab him, I changed one of my talents to the camouflage talent, clicked the talent, walked up to him and immediately got him on the first try.

Kommentar von Kittytreets

how frustrating. I stopped chasing him after a while. I worked with a bunch of others on my server doing this quest. I hope this helps and they fix it soon, because this part of the quest is not fun.

Watched his dot on the mini map and we all stood still in this spot where Gizmo finally stops for a while: /way The Jade Forest 43.15, 68.20
I used camouflage and toggled walk to approach him. He stayed in the same spot as long as people didn't move.
Seemed like our attempts to catch him were interrupting each other. It kept saying, "failed" and "out of range."
We took turns trying to catch him and were able to get him.

Kommentar von Cilelienea

Seriously. Use War Mode.

I spent almost 30 minutes trying to catch him without war mode with people all around.

Tried War Mode and I was alone, grabbed him immediately.

/way The Jade Forest 43.15, 68.20

Kommentar von Haxan

Logged in 7 in the morning and did this quest, no problems! I was alone and could walk up to the pet and catch him right away, no chasing around. Didn't use any warmode or change of walking style, those things do no affect at all.

I don't see this mentioned anywhere but after you finish the quest you get sent a message from Riko in the mail with attached for your pet collection.
Apparently Riko finds him stinky :(

Kommentar von Saralainn

My advise to make sure you are ready to go to Jade Forest, get to 60% on the clue meter.

Kommentar von Jerodast

Well my Draenei priest is not going to raise a poor deceased pet raccoon from the grave to give it to some rando undead stranger and her monkey! There should really be some actual role-playing options on these...

Luckily you can skip this on one character without blocking access to later Guest Relations storylines, and you can still get the pet on an alt who is more down with raising stuff from the dead.

Kommentar von mikenj27

ATTN Priests: Cast Levitate on Gizmo to catch him easily.

Kommentar von SunStorm

This is literally one of the worst quests I have had the displeasure of doing in my entire experience of playing WoW. Have any of you played Fallout 76? Ever done the quest where you literally wait in line at the DMV? I would rather do that than catch some raccoon.

Kommentar von MysticalStrawber

This quest SUCKS. I feel that bliz needs to make it phased... so that no matter how many ppl are in the area Gizmo ONLY reacts to YOU. Theres easily over 20 ppl where im trying to do it and he will NOT STOP RUNNING! Im not going into WM cause f pvp. Just fix it!

Used the Torch and Gizmo appeared, and ran up the hill.
Ran up the hill and stopped once I saw him.
Used invisibility on my Mage.
Walked up and clicked on him.
Done - back to the Celebration.

Kommentar von WokkaD

If you have the Unheimliche Kiste as an active pet, it WILL eat when you give it to Riko!

Kommentar von giovannileanza

I don't know if this is a reference but the quest name reminded me of the classic 1988 C.O.P.S. (Central Organization of Police Specialists) cartoon.
Every episode's title would start with "The case of..." The show has one of the coolest intro's ever. Here's a link to a whole playlist with pretty much every episode.

And remember, "it's crime fightin' time!"

Kommentar von Slynki

If you're having issues with Sully "The Pickle", you're probably like me and recently did the Codex of Chromie and forgot to leave the raid group afterwards. It seems the mystery progress bar needs to be at 40% before Sully gives you the dialog option, and talking to Riko or Kiryn will not advance the bar if you're in a raid.

Kommentar von Damonra

I did this on my druid. Tried on my DK after, but couldn't finish it. Didn't have trouble with the other anniversary quests. Does anyone know if its a bug, or another issue?

Kommentar von Uroshnor

I had no luck catching Gizmo at first, tried various methods, and what worked was simple: get reasonably close to him and then inch forward using the W key. Just barely tap it so you go only one step, and then wait 2 seconds before hitting the W again. It's the wait that's the key, apparently. When I did this I was able to catch him the first time I tried it.

Kommentar von Mindsoothe

My Journal: The Case of the Fur-Getting Wicket

"Riko wants me to find a pet for him and Kiryn. I should ask them both what kind of pet they want."

I love the easter egg here about Riko and Kiryn. During the Mists Remix I recall Riko had a crush on Kiryn and kept asking her to remove her mask and professed his undying love then ran away when he saw it was not a mask but her undead markings LOL.
