This Grand Master Pet Battle Tamer is right in Veil Terokk.

His pets are:

Darkwing
The Great Kaliri
Apexis Guardian

He is also a vendor that sells Kaliri Hatchling which, when learned, produces Kaliri Hatchling similar to the other pets that are available for purchase at vendors around Azeroth. He also carries Veilwatcher Hatchling which produces Veilwatcher Hatchling

You can see me battle and defeat him here: Grand Master Pet Tamer Vesharr - Spires of Arak

Comment by Tritox

Beating Vesharr is somewhat easy even if you have lowbie pet in your team for leveling purposes or if you are going for An Awfully Big Adventure. For the achievement you don't actually have to use the Elekk Plushie, it can just hang around in team without ever participating the battle. Beating him with two level 25 pets requires some luck but not immensely.

I used the following pets to rough up her pets:

Rascal-Bot with

Phaser
Lens Flare
(the last ability is indifferent)

and Pandaren Fire Spirit with

Lowbie requirements: None

The course of the battle:

Start the fight with Rascal-Bot by casting Lens Flare to The Great Kaliri. After that you want to land three Phasers to drop the bird. If you totally luck out and get critically hit by both Caw and Quills or can't kill him with three Phasers, you might as well restart the battle because otherwise anything can't go wrong later on or you will lose for sure.
Cast the next Lens Flare to Apexis Guardian which in turn will cast Entangling Roots. If the cast missed, you don't have to worry about it later on. Nevertheless, swap your Pandaren Fire Spirit to battle.
After the switch, Apexis Guardian will cast Feathered Frenzy and Entangling Roots might land IF it didn't miss upon cast. Now if the Roots actually landed to your elemental, restart the fight as you won't have enough HP to survive the second Roots. If the first Roots missed on way or another, proceed by casting Cauterize.
You will need a mix of three Burns or Flamethrowers to trigger Guardian's racial resurrection. When the second Feathered Frenzy lands, the second Roots will also hit your Fire Spirit hard. Heal up with Cauterize and then drop the robot for good with Flamethrower.
Open with Burn to Darkwing and then refresh your Flamethrower dot. If you didn't die to the first Shadow Talon and managed to refresh the dot, cast Cauterize once more - Darkwing will also heal up with Consume Corpse. Refresh your Flamethrower once more after which your Spirit will die to the next Talon.
Despite how long your Fire Spirit lasted, when it dies, swap in your carry pet (or Elekk Plushie, optional) and then instantly switch your Rascal Bot back to the battle. Lens Flare and 1-3 Phasers will finish off the bird depending off it's remaining health.

Last tested to work in build: 19243

Comment by mzygi

I used a Celestial Dragon to defeat him, didn't even need other pets. So you can use your Elekk Plushie and and a carry pet at the same time.

Comment by Votaan

I used Nether Faerie Dragon and Fel Flame.

1. Use Moonfire
2. Use Arcane Blast
3. Repeat Arcane Blast until The Great Kaliri dies
-- OTHER: Use Evanescence once Apexis Guardian comes out.
-- OTHER: Then, use Moonfire.
4. Switch to Fel Flame
5. Use Immolate
6. Use Immolate (Flame Breath may also work)
7. Use Conflagrate
8. Use Immolate (Apexis Guardian should die and be revived due to Failsafe)
9. Use Immolate (Apexis Guardian should die, and so should Fel Flame)
10. Put Nether Faerie Dragon out
11. Use Moonfire
12. Use Arcane Blast
13. Use Arcane Blast (Darkwing should be dead)
You have won. This uses only two pets, which is useful if you want to complete An Awfully Big Adventure.

EDIT: If this strategy doesn't work for you for some reason, then use the lines marked OTHER (thanks to gunner2590). This will change some of the turns following, but it shouldn't make much of a difference.

Comment by Iniferia

And you have to defeat him that day, or he won't sell you anything.
Defeated him yesterday and have to do it again for pets today. :)

Comment by Lottie

Just beat him very easily with Chrominius (2,2,2) and Lil' Ragnaros (1,2,1)

Start with Chrominius and spam Arcane Explosion until the first Flying pet is dead
Switch to Lil' Ragnaros and use Flamethrower and then Conflagurate until the Mech pet is dead
Finish off the second Flying pet with Lil' Rag, you might need to do a couple of casts with Chrominius but should be easy to finish.

Comment by Alfa

Located in Spires of Arak (46.3 45.6).

I used a Mechanical Pandaren Dragonling (can get lucky and solo with it), otherwise I use a Anubisath Idol and can use a 3rd to level up.

After beating him, you can purchase two pets. Kaliri Hatchling & Veilwatcher Hatchling

Comment by Aliandrin

A good two-pet strategy is to use an Infinite Whelpling (which will finish off the first bird and take a chunk out of the robot with Early Advantage) and Red Dragonhawk Hatchling.

Comment by ArgentSun

It looks like this is one of the easier Master Tamers of Draenor. Most combinations of the following pets will work:

Dragonkin with Magic abilities
Elemental with a an ability that applies the Burns debuff, and an ability that does additional damage if the target is burning.

Depending how strong your pets are, and what their other abilities are, you should be able to even take a leveling pet with most combinations.

Comment by 912204

Beat him pretty handily with Lil' Tarecgosa (Arcane Blast/Surge of Power/Arcane Explosion), Phoenix Hatchling (~/Ignite/Conflagrate), and Chrominius (Arcane Explosion/Howl/Surge of Power).

I feel like Lil' Rag would have done better here than the Phoenix, just because he's a little more solid, but Sparky got the job done (my Rag is level 8). Lost Chrominius and the Phoenix, but them's the breaks. Tarecgosa was still almost full health at the end. If I had to swap one out for a leveling pet, it'd probably be Chrominius.

Comment by Sybreedx

I've been trying to put together groups for An Awfully Big Adventure, and this is what I've found works for me against Vesharr. And they're cheap/easy-to-get pets.

1. Chrominius - Arcane Explosion, Ancient Blessing, Surge of Power
2. Mechanical Pandaren Dragonling - Breath, Thunderbolt, Decoy
3. Carry / Elekk Plushie :3

Start with your plushie/carry for one round, then swap in Chrominius against The Great Kaliri, and spam Arcane Explosion. I like to use Ancient Blessing around half HP, and continue spamming Arcane Explosion until Kaliri dies.

When Apexis Guardian comes out, switch to Mechanical Pandaren Dragonling, and immediately use Decoy to negate the Entangling Roots. Use Thunderbolt, then spam Breath until it dies. If your Dragonling dies, it's okay. Just finish it off with Chrominius.

When Darkwing comes out, it should be almost dead and an easy win!

Edit: Fixed some more stuff.

How to easily beat Vesharr with 2 pets:
Vesharr - 2 Pet Strategy

Comment by dajagr

I took on Vesharr using Oily Slimeling, Terrible Turnip, and Arcane Eye, although my Arcane Eye really wasn't necessary. You could quite possibly swap in a leveling pet for this slot, or an Elekk Plushie, although I haven't tested this yet.

I started with Oily Slimeling and kept up Corrosion while I used Ooze Touch. This took down The Great Kaliri fairly easily.

When Apexis Guardian came out, I swapped to Terrible Turnip. I started with Sons of the Root to dodge the Entangling Roots, then used Leech Seed when that wore off. After that, I kept using Tidal Wave until Leech Seed was available again. The Apexis Guardian actually took down my Terrible Turnip at this point, but I swapped the Oily Slimeling back in again to finish him.

I kept with Oily Slimeling when Darkwing came out and repeated my strategy for The Great Kaliri and finished up without having to bring in the Arcane Eye.

Comment by 1402000

Beat him easily with:
Spawn of Onyxia
Thundertail Flapper
Chrominius
(in that order)

Comment by 1401769

My team was:

Chrominius
Mechanical Pandaren Dragonling
Infinite Whelpling

Use Chrominius and spam Arcane Explosion until The Great Kaliri dies. This will also damage his other pets.

Switch to Mechanical Pandaren Dragonling for Apexis Guardian. Open with Decoy, then Thunderbolt, and spam the rest of the fight with Breath. If your pet is still alive, use spam breath on Darkwing until your pet dies.

When Mechanical Pandaren Dragonling dies, finish off Darkwing with your Infinite Whelpling. I just spammed Tail Sweep.

Comment by 230574

I did this with a level 18 Shimmering Wyrmling to counter The Great Kaliri; magic had a definite advantage over flying. My Celestial Dragon countered Apexis Guardian, then I used Fel Flame to beat Darkwing. It took me two tries (I hadn't healed my pets beforehand the first time), but I had room to spare. It unlocks him as a vendor and with faction bonuses, you can get Kaliri Hatchling and Veilwatcher Hatchling for cheaper than the advertised price.

Comment by Etreum

Actually, one of the easiest I have faced (relatively).

I used...

Chrominius
Lil'Ragnaros
Disgusting Oozeling

Update: Worked like a charm two more times

Comment by Seana

Very easily beaten.

I used Nether Faerie Dragon, Molten Corgi and Lil' Tarecgosa

Comment by marcblack

This is how I two-pet this dude:

1: Sunreaver Micro Sentry (1,1,1)
2: Carry Pet
3: Anubisath Idol (1,1,1)

vs The Great Kaliri
- Extra Plating > Call Lightning > Laser until The Great Kaliri dies.

vs Apexis Guardian
- Switch to your Anubisath Idol. Apexis Guardian will Root it.
- Deflection > Sandstorm.
- From here on, use Deflection when you have the Root debuff, Sandstorm when off cooldown, Crush until Apexis Guardian dies.

vs Darkwing
- Crush until your Anubisath Idol dies.
- Switch to carry pet > switch to Sunreaver Micro Sentry. Pop Extra Plating > Call Lightning > Laser until Darkwing dies.

Comment by cephadex

This NPC has:

1. Flying (use magic)

2. Flying (use magic)

3. Mechanical (use elemental)

Comment by Noctula

I found this easy peasy with:

1. Chromius (howl, surge of power)
2. Fel Flame (arcane storm, mana surge)
3. Nexus Whelpling (scorched earth, conflagrate)

His pets are:

1. flying: use dragonkin with magic abilities
2. mechanical: use elemental
3. flying: use dragonkin with magic abilities

Comment by Nimel

You can beat Vesharr with this team:

1) Levelling carry pet (can be level 1)
2) Chrominius (H/H) (2,1,2)
3) Lil' Ragnaros (P/P) (1,2,1)

1) levelling pet base attack
2) swap to Chrominius
3) Howl, Arcane Explosion, Arcane Explosion, Arcane Explosion till The Great Kaliri is dead
4) Apexis Guardian enters: Howl, Surge of Power (thx for turning into flying type mate!)
5) Chrominius will die, enter Lil' Ragnaros
6) Just one Flamethrower should be enough to kill Apexis Guardian
7) Darkwing enter, Conflagrate
8) Sulfuras Smash until Darkwing dead
9) profit

Comment by cjane

Chrominius (Arcane Explosion, Howl, Surge of Power)
Bronze Whelpling (Arcane Slash, Early Advantage, Arcane Storm)

Open with Chrominius, use Howl on cd and spam Arcane Explosion (it will hit the inactive pets too). When Apexis guardian comes forth use Howl+Surge of Power (Chrominius will die after this).
Switch to whelpling. Use Arcane Storm, then either Early Advantage (if the guardian takes damage as mechanical pet) or Arcane slash (if he takes damage as flying one).
For Darkwing use Arcane Storm and Arcane Slash.

Comment by 1252871

Of the nine abilities that these three pets have, 6 of them are Flying abilities, so it seemed wise to make sure that when creating the team I would use to level my recently acquired Stormwing, one of the other two would have to be a dragon. The last participant took some thought because I wanted enough power out there to take care of the mechanical Apexis Guardian. So here's what happened:

I went with:
1) Lil' Tarecgosa: Arcane Blast, Wild Magic, and Arcane Storm
2) Ominous Flame: Spiritfire Bolt, Scorched Earth, and Conflagrate

3) Stormwing (Level 11....he will need a few hp as he will get his head handed to him at one point....mine had 702, I believe)

From turn 1, Lil' Tarecgosa vs. The Great Kaliri, he cast Caw, I cast Wild Magic. Beyond that, I can't delineate between Quills and Slicing Winds so just make sure, if you use this team, to cast WM, then AS, followed by a few ABs to end the first bird.

Don't switch out Taregosa, unless you have a very odd relationship with your pets where you bury them when they die. Leave him in to weaken Apexis Guardian, then die at around Apexis's 2nd turn out, which by this time he had cast Entangled Roots and Batter to kill the dragon.

Bring out your carry pet with at least 700 hp because this should be where the Guardian casts Feathered Frenzy, which your carry pet will soak. As long as your carry pet isn't aquatic, you should be fine. If your carry pet happens to be the same as mine, Thunderbolt would be the ability to use for that one turn. Then immediately switch out so that Ominous Flame can round out the fight by using Scorched Earth followed by Conflagrate on the Guardian before their second bird comes out. This pretty much guarantees one shot to kill, and the next to rekill after the self repair.

Spiritfire Bolt is the reason for the win...It shreds flying pets to little bits so Darkwing doesn't really stand a chance even though he comes out with almost full health while the Flame is at just above half by now. Scary ending, but my carry pet did go from 11 to 19 all buffed up with snacks and treats. So it was worth it.

Is it me or are these pet battles waaaaaaaaaaaay easier than the Pandaria ones when MoP first dropped. I recall having some real road blocks with a few of those tamers, but now, WoD even has a tamer with a pet that squeaks when he walks and DOES NO DAMAGE! Weird.

Comment by Ofire

Carry Pet
Sprite Darter Hatchling or Nether Faerie Dragon (2,1,1)
Pandaren Fire Spirit (1,1,2)

Vs The Great Kaliri

attack with lvling pet, then switch directly to your Hatchling/Dragon

1. Moonfire
2. Arcane Blast
3. Arcane Blast

Vs Apexis Guardian

1. Evanescence
2. Moonfire

Switch to Fire Spirit

1. Immolate
2. Burn
3. Conflagrate
4. Burn (if fire spirit dies here just send out Hatchling/Dragon and kill it with arcane blast)

Vs Darkwing

There is a chance fire spirit can be alive still, just Immolate if that is the case, then he should die next round

Bring out the Hatchling/Dragon

1. Moonfire
2. Arcane Blast

This strat is slightly RNG based
because the hatchling/Dragon needs to be able to take a hit from Darkwing at the end
so hopefully he doesnt get crit too often

Special thanks to Votaan for his original strat, I just perfected it so hopefully even with slightly different outcomes you can still win.

EDIT: I have found Searing Scorchling and lil' Ragnaros to be the most consistent to win with. Granted they are both slightly difficult to obtain.

Comment by Tintaglia30

I used my Ethereal Soul Trader, which demolished the first pet. With Beam, Soul Ward and Soulrush.
Electrofied Razortooth against the mech. Using Jolt, Paralyzing Shock and Lightening Shield.
And Nexus Whelping against last flying, Arcane Storm then Mana surge. Piece of cake.

Comment by 496978

One of the easier tamers, by a very large margin. Pretty much any Dragonkin will have a field day.

Your classic staple Emeral Proto-Whelp which you use for half the tamers in Pandaria will work here, but you can also put your new Bronze Whelpling to work as well. I personally let the Bronze Dragonflight take care of this with both Bronze and Infinite Whelplings.

Comment by 1332353

This is a strategy that works like a charm.

Nordrassil Wisp(Balance)
Light / Flash / Arcane Explosion

Infinite Whelpling(Destruction)
Tail Sweep / Healing Flame / Early Advantage

Arcane Eye(Power and Speed)
Focused Beams / Drain Power / Power Surge

1. Start with Wisp and cast Flash.
2. Cast Light.
3. Cast Arcane Explosion until the bird is dead.
4. Out comes robot, Cast Flash and follow it up with a Light if Wisp is still alive.
5. Once Wisp is dead, bring out the Whelp and cast Tail Sweep until Robot dies.
6. If Whelp is alive when Darkwing comes out, throw an Early Advantage (not necessary though).
7. Once Whelp dies, bring out Arcane eye and cast Drain Power.
8. Finish off Darkwing with a Mana Surge.

Done and done.

NOTE: I had to do this from memory so I might make modifications to this strat tomorrow when I can record the steps I did more accurately. Thanks.

Comment by 1147009

All 6 Draenor Master Tamers can be beaten with only a Sprite Darter Hatchling, Mechanical Pandaren Dragonling and a carry pet.

Strategies for all 6 tamers can be found here: http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/15353775980

If you follow the order listed, you can carry a single pet from lvl 1 to lvl 25 every day through the Master Tamers and all it takes are those same 2 pets for every fight.

Aviana's Feather can be used to get from Taralune to Vesharr rapidly.

Comment by 1146774

FOR THE ACHIEVEMENT "An Awfully Big Adventure" (2 pet strat)

No one's strat was working for me so I did this:
Kirin Tor Familiar: Arcane Blast, Gravity, and Arcane Explosion
Pandaren Fire Spirit: Burn, Flamethrower, and Cauterize
Elekk Plushie, of course! Cute, useless little guy...

Start with KTF
- Gravity
- Spam Arcane Explosion til The Great Kaliri dies
- Spam Arcane Explosion til your Kirin Tor dies
Now you are using PFS
- Flamethrower
- Cauterize
- Keep Flamethrower active and use Cauterize every time it cools down. Use Burn otherwise.
The Apexis Gaurdian will turn back into Flying so you can wallup him. The last enemy pet is also flying so you're good. AND the last pet's health will be really low because you spammed Arcane Explosion.

I hope this helps!
Good Luck!

Comment by 737521

This was how I managed, after a few failed combination attempts, to finally defeat him.

I used flying pet Blue Dragonhawk Hatchling and easily killed The Great Kaliri starting with Conflagrate and then using Flamethrower repeatedly until the cooldown for Conflagrate came back up.

I continued that combination with Apexis Guardian and got in his first kill before he took out my Blue Dragonhawk Hatchling . I then one shot him for the second kill using my Core Hound Pup's move Burn.

I managed to burn Darkwing and got a one hit on him with Scratch before he killed that pet.

Then I finished him off with Brilliant Kaliri using only two moves: Shriek and then Nocturnal Strike.

Comment by Andromedia

I was able to do this easily with Nether Faerie Dragon (2-2-1) and Mechanical Pandaren Dragonling (1-2-2). You can easily start with or swap a leveling pet in (or 2 pet clear with Elekk Plushie on your team).
I started with my leveling pet, swapped him out after attacking once (he was level 20). Brought in my dragon, moonfire and then arc blast until the first bird died. Swapped in Pandaren Dragonling, decoy, thunderbolt. breath. I just used him until he died and brought back out the Nether dragon. moonfire, arc blast - win.

Comment by Liukkari

This was my combo with Elekk Plushie + Rare Arcane Eye skills 1-2-2 and Rare Fel Flame skills 1-1-1

1turn vs The Great Kaliri use Drain Power 2turn Mana Surge 3turn he should be down.

4turn your Mana Surge hits Apexis Guardian he casts Entangling Roots switch to Elekk Plushie let him die then Fel Flame 1turn Immolate 2turn Conflagrate then just Burn] till dead

I managed cast Immolate on Darkwing before Fel Flame died. Then back to Arcane Eye and same as before Drain Power + Mana Surge

No hard to farm pets was needed for me :)

Comment by CWR03

My preference:

Dark Whelpling with Shadowflame, Roar and Lift-Off
<Filler pet>
Darkmoon Tonk

Rotation:

Start with Lift-off, which gets the most damage in quickly while you take none.

Roar to increase damage dealt, then Shadowflame until first pet is dead.

Roar again when Apexis Guardian comes in, then Lift-Off to avoid taking damage from the Entangling roots.

You should be able to kill it with Shadowflame, then when the whelpling dies you can rotate in your filler for one round without it taking a hit and finish off Darkwing easily with any mechanical.

Comment by Ciren

An alternative 2 pet strat that worked very well was using

Kirin Tor Familiar (1, 2, 1)
Infinite Whelpling (2, 1, 1)

Open with arcane storm and spam arcane explosion until arcane storm is up and recast that for the bonus damage. Continue spamming arcane explosion until kirin tor familiar dies. Alternatively, if you see arcane explosions will not kill the kaliri and kirin tor familiar is low on health you can use beam to finish off the kaliri.

By this point the other flying pet should be nearly dead so he will swap in his mech. Bring in the infinite whelpling and use early advantage, it won't have its bonus damage but it doesn't really matter. Healing flame after he casts the root spell as it will do a lot of damage and just spam sleeping gas. If you have good RNG he may fall asleep and will swap to the bird which should die in 1 hit of sleeping gas and be an easy win. Otherwise just keep spamming sleeping gas and you should have the kill.

If infinite whelpling should for some reason die (bad crit RNG) you can bring back in the kirin tor familiar to finish off the other pets.

Comment by 1421180

Infinite Whelpling with Sleeping Gas, Healing Flame, and Early Advantage, can just about solo this. Mine (P/S breed) has soloed it several times with a little RNG help from Sleep procs. Haven't tried the P/P breed on it yet (don't have one), but I don't think it would work as well, as part of the advantage comes from being faster than the Apexis Guardian.

If you get a sleep proc around the 4th or 5th round, because your IW's hp will be down a bit, when the AI swaps in the Apexis Guardian robot, you get to open with Early Advantage for double damage right as it comes in, which also triggers the dragon racial 50% dmg boost, letting your next Sleeping Gas kill it off and force it to use its rez. It'll then entangle you (unless you got another sleep proc off that SG),

If no sleep procs occur, of they occur too early, you will likely need a closer, for which I use Nexus Whelpling. Because its unreliable, can't really use it to level 2x lowbie pets (unless they're high enough to act as the closer of course), unless you don't mind resetting and starting over. Personally I just use a closer, who usually has a very easy task as my IW almost always gets to the 3rd pet before dying. I swap the lowbie pet in whenver it's convenient, either from a sleep proc, or because know the AI is going to use a buff skill.

Comment by 230460

I used a combo of Nether Faerie Dragon and Venus to take out these pets. I had a back up of snail, but never needed it.

With the NFD, I used Evanescence, Moonfire, then Arcane Blast The Great Kaliri to death.

When The Apexis Guardian comes out, I switched to Venus. Watch out though, because the AG puts on a buff that makes it take damage like a Flying Pet. I used Sunlight, Leech Seed, and then Poison Lash, before he died. The AG had died and come back at this point.

Switch back to NFD, hit the AG with an Arcane Blast to kill it. Then you can use the same routine for the Dark Wing as with the Kaliri to kill it.

Comment by Seniya

The line up I used for this battle was Blossoming Ancient, Celestial Dragon and Emerald Proto-Whelp. I was able to almost solo the entire battle with the Blossoming Ancient using Ironbark, Photosynthesis, and Sunlight. By the time the ancient died, it only took the Celestial Dragon 1 hit to finish the battle.

Comment by Koompiis

My 2 pet team:
Onyxian Whelpling (P/B) - (Breath, Healing Flame, Lift-Off)
Arcane Eye (P/S) - (Focused Beams, Eyeblast, Mana Surge)

Start with Onyxian Whelpling
1 Round: Lift-Off
2 Round: Lift-Off Hits
3 Round: Breath
4 Round: Healing Flame
5/6 Round: Breath till 1 pet dies.
7 Round: Lift-Off again for 2 pet.
8 Round: Lift-Off Hits
9 Round: Healing Flame
10 Round: Breath
11/12 Round: Breath
Depending on the crit. the 2 pet can die and do a comeback. Or Onyxia will die before
13 Round: Arcane Eye For Focused Beams till 2 pet dies.
14 Round: Eyeblas when 3 pet comes out
15/16/17 Round: Mana Surge
18 Round: Focused Beams and 3 pet dies.

For those who dont have Onyxian Whelpling,
Spawn of Onyxia Have the same spells and should work the same.

Comment by 1432906

Just completed this for An Awfully Big Adventure and I can tell you that the Blossoming Ancient is the way to go with Sunshine Ironbark and photosynthesis keeping sunshine and photosynthesis up you an solo all his pets. I did have the darkmoon zepplin as a second but never pulled him out. The Blossoming Ancient was purchased from Blizzard store!

Comment by Malachi68

I think people are over-thinking this battle.

This is essentially a one (plus leveling) pet battle if you are lucky enough to have Chrominius (or any other magic pet that has both arcane explosion and a heal). Someone else mentioned Chrominius but the strategy wasn't as simple as mine.

My strategy is this:

Start out with Arcane Explosion. Then Ancient Blessing. Continue with Arcane Explosion until Ancient Blessing's cool down resets. Spam these two abilities.

This will easily kill The Great Kaliri. Chrominius is still alive (with >1100 health) when Apexis Guardian makes an appearance. Continue with same strategy and Darkwing will die at the same time as Chrominius (without ever having come out).

Apexis Guardian is at half-life when you take out a leveling pet. Either you can one attack Apexis Guardian and switch in an elemental pet (if the pet is low level) or use the leveling pet to kill AG. In either case it's relatively quick and easy.

Comment by SpaceGlass

For the casual gamer like me who doesn't have a lvl 25 Chrominius or really anything special, I just annhilated Vesharr with this team:

Rare lvl 25 Emerald Proto-Whelp
Rare lvl 25 Fel Flame
Rare lvl 25 Oily Slimeling

Strategy:
Your first pet should have a magic type move and heal, whether or not it's dragonkin is just a bonus.
Use the magic move first, then heal.
Use magic until heal cooldown resets. Just keep using these two moves. (I was able to take out The Great Kaliri and mechanical thing with just these moves on my Proto-Whelp.)
Once your first pet dies, switch to your elemental. Use Scorched Earth, then Conflagrate. (After these two moves, Vesharr's pet should be pretty low. But it'll prob heal itself.) Use Burn until your Elemental dies or, if you're lucky, you can use Scorched Earth or Conflagrate again.
Switch to any Magic pet and use any magic-type moves to take out the last bird.

Comment by 1022996

Braindead easy strategy for 2-pet. Carry pet won't take damage.

Chrominius, 1 ?
Nexus Whelpling ? 2 2
Carry

Chrominius: Arcane explosion until dead. Do not be tempted to use any other abilties, it's pointless.

Switch in level pet. Switch in Nexus Whelpling.

Nexus Whelpling: Arcane Storm, Mana Surge. Battle ends, you win.

I've used this strategy ~4 times now, it seems to always work. I strongly recommend it.

Comment by jack2301

Strategy for a two pet kill of Vesharr's pets

I used

Nether Fairie Dragon (breed S/B) (2, 1, 1)
Emerald Proto-Whelp (breed P/P) (1, 1, 1)

Start with NFD

Use Moonfire
Use Arcane Blast
Repeat Arcane Blast until The Great Kaliri dies
Use Evanescence when Entangle
Use Moonfire
Use Arcane Blast until you die
Switch to Emerald Proto-Whelp
Use Proto-Strike
Use Ancient Blessing
Use Breath until Apexis Guardian dies
Use Breath
Use Ancient Blessing when ready
Use Proto-Strike
Use Breath until Darkwing dies and you have won

Comment by Laurosand

Beat these handily with this line up:
1.Green Lvl 25 Nexus Whelpling- 1,2,2
2. Green Lvl 21 Fledgling Nether Ray- 2,1,2
3. lvl 25 Anubisath Idol -2,1,1
Use the Whelpling until she dies on the second pet, then bring in the Nether Ray. He will die right at the end, but not before taking out The Guardian.
Then put in Anubisath idol. Used Deflection once in the fight, sandstorm, and the rest all demo, and he gets the job done.

Comment by albinoette

Taming Draenor is an account-wide achievement, so participation on other characters or factions will still give credit.

This battle pet team will be: 1. The Great Kaliri, 2. Apexis Guardian, 3. Darkwing.
This team is weak to 1. Magic, 2. Elemental, 3. Magic.

Dragonkin take reduced damage from Flying, which is why a Dragonkin that does Magic damage, like a 2,2,2 Chrominius is doubly effective against Flying.
Mechanical take increased damage from Elementals, and a good combo for this is any attack that leaves "Burning" (ex. Flamethrower) followed by an attack that does increased damage against a Burning target (ex. Deep Burn). I used the Blacksmithing pet Soul of the Forge as a 1,1,1.
I used a plain Magic for my last slot, simply because I've had good luck using Viscidus Globule against Flying.

Once you've defeated Vesharr, you can buy Kaliri Hatchling (10g) and/or Veilwatcher Hatchling (1000g). These teach you Kaliri Hatchling & Veilwatcher Hatchling.

It appears that you have to have completed the account-daily quest that day to be able to access the pets sold by Vesharr.
Vesh is associated with Arakkoa Outcasts, so upping your reputation with this faction can decrease the cost to 8g/800g, respectively.
User tale commented (ctrl+click for new window) that both pets come in uncommon quality in a P/S breed (appears some initial PTR data indicated the quality could vary, and some user comments may reflect this original set up).

Nexus Whelpling (2-2-2)
Nexus Whelpling (2-2-2)
Carry Pet / Elekk Plushie

Comment by razzd

For Awfully big adventure I used a Nether Faerie Dragon like various comments suggested. Instead of letting him die to Apexis Guardian on second entangling roots I switched to plushie and let it soak the dmg, used "Itchin' for a Stitchin'", brought NFD back in and was able to evanescence for the next roots. Arcane blast Guardian down, and Darkwing as well.

NFD vs The Great Kaliri - Moonfire, arcane blast till dead.

NFD vs Apexis Guardian - moonfire/arcane blast, evanescence when he entangling roots first time. Arcane Blast, switch to plushie

Plushie Vs. Apexis Guardian - wait til you soak an entangling roots, and "Itchin for a stitchin"

NFD vs Apexis Guardian (round 2) - moonfire/arcane blast until dead, evanescence when he entangling roots

NFD vs Darkwing - Moonfire/Arcane Blast

Comment by Black2u

I have used various combinations all of which have seemed to work well. Sometimes I use a team that consists of Chrominius, Ruby Droplet, and coilfang Stalker, or Chrominius, and two Coilfang Stalkers, and then sometimes I might replace one of the Coilfangs for Clockwork Gnome. One thing you should be aware of is if Apexis Guardian dies and your pets health is even at the halfway mark he has a rez which also hits you for over 500 sometimes in damage. If I have a pet at half health and my pet kills him he has from time to time rezzed right up and then socked it to my pet instantly killing it. Just be aware.

Being Alliance, this is the second pet battle daily I go to after Ashlei. If you followed my guide for Ashlei, you should have a level 12 pet ready to kick some butt by this point.

For Vesharr, we're going to take advantage of his flying pets' weakness - magic attacks - and make use of a P/P Nexus Whelpling to its full potential. Aside from your carry pet, you will also want a Pandaren Water Spirit. If you don't have a Pandaren Water Spirit, you can borrow one from a friend or get one off the AH, but the Nexus Whelpling must be tamed in Coldarra, in Borean Tundra.

Here's my strategy for Vesharr:

Load up your Nexus Whelpling with:

Load up your Pandaren Water Spirit with:

Open with Arcane Storm, followed by Tail Sweep on The Great Kaliri. The goal is to get The Great Kaliri as close to 50% as possible without actually passing 50%, and those two abilities should get you there, as long as they don't crit. Then, use your Mana Surge, which has a relatively small chance to not quite kill The Great Kaliri, which can be a problem, but it's not too big a deal. Just an inconvenience, really.

Once The Great Kaliri is dead under ideal conditions, your Nexus Whelpling should have two charges of Mana Surge left, and your dragon racial should be active. Vesharr will pull out Apexis Guardian. Your second charge of Mana Surge on Apexis Guardian is going to be weak, but the second ability Apexis Guardian uses will transform it into a flying pet, making your final charge of Mana Surge a strong attack, which may or may not kill Apexis Guardian. If your Mana Surge is gone and your Nexus Whelpling is still alive, under any conditions, see if you can't get an Arcane Storm off. Your Nexus Whelpling will surely be dead by this point.

Pull out your Pandaren Water Spirit and finish off the Apexis Guardian with Water Jet. You can swap to your carry pet at this point, whatever it is, and get a hit off on Darkwing, but I personally prefer to let my Pandaren Water Spirit weaken Darkwing first before letting my carry pet finish it off. That said, as soon as Darkwing is out, start with your Geyser, then use Whirlpool. Pull out your carry pet when needed, before the debuffs reach their end, and finish off Darkwing.

If your carry pet was leveled to 12 off Ashlei, gets all the experience from this battle, and you have a Safari Hat on, your pet will instantly be leveled to 16, very close to 17, allowing that pet to survive long enough to get carried in yet more pet battle dailies much more easily.

Good luck, and have fun. Happy hunting!

Elekk Plushie "An Awfully Big Adventure" achievement hunters..

Requirement
Chrominius - 2,1,2
Elekk Plushie - 1,1,1
Nether Fairie Dragon - 2,1,1

Chrominius: Arcane explosion until The Great Kaliri dies
Chrominius: Howl
Chrominius: Surge (wipes out what HP the Apex Guardian has left)
Chrominius: Usually dies at this point but don't worry
Nether Fairie Dragon: Choice between using Arcane explosion or Moonfire in any order to finish off Revived apex guardian and Darkwing (who also has low hp due to Chrominius's arcane explosion spam at start)

No problem. :)

Comment by Zeneo

You do not need to actually "use" your Elekk Plushie in battle for you to get credit for this part of An Awfully Big Adventure. You just need to have Elekk Plushie on your team.

Comment by Keventh

I just finished battling Vesharr and noticed one thing about his second pet, the Apexis Guardian. It comes out and shows, not as Mechanical, but as Flying. After the first attack, it becomes Mechanical. As the battle progressed, it would swap back and forth between the two. Note: I'm not talking about the attacks it makes, but it's actually pet breed changes.

Comment by VolRath217

My strat

Chrominius H/H
Mechanical Pandaren Dragonling S/S
Any pet with Mana Surge (I use Shimmering Wyrmling B/B)

Start with Chrominius

1) Howl
2) Surge of Power
3) Recovering
4) Recovering

What happens next depends on your health. If you're above 400-ish
5) Arcane Explosion

If not:
5) Howl

At this point, if your speed is equal to the Apexis Guardian (like mine is) it's RNG whether you go first or not and whether you die or not. No matter what happens, it's fine. If you're still alive, use Arcane Explosion until you're dead. When you're dead in any event, switch to the Dragonling.

Use Thunderbolt on Cooldown, fill in with Breath and use Decoy when he casts Entangling Roots. Your Dragonling should still be alive when the Guardian dies.

Once Darkwing comes out, keep up the same strat: Thunderbolt on cooldown, use Breath as filler. If your Dragonling happens to die, bring in Shimmering Wyrmling and cast Mana Surge to finish him off.

Comment by Mao75

For beginners: Warbot and Crusher works perfectly, both purchaseable (Warbot at Dalaran, Crusher at garrison town hall).
Warbot begins, deploy armor plating first, then mines, then rocket it until you have to redeploy armor. Most likely the Great Caliri will trigger the Self repair (mechanuc abilit) but you will kill it after comeback.
As soon as you can (you will be under 100 HP) deploy mines again, they rocket until Warbot dies. Thanks to the landmines, the second opponent will be on half life.
Crusher always goes this way: shell armor - body slam - crush - body slam - crush - crush - shell armor and the cycle goes on.
You have a chance if too much criticals will find you, that Crusher dies before the end. If yo, hope that your third pet can deliver the last 200-300 dmg.

The robot enemy pet switches between flying and mechanical type. Gift is strong against flying; Snowball is strong against mechanical. This is why Winter's Little Helper is great for this fight.

For Elekk Plushie achievement:

By Malachi68 (1,613 – 2·15) on 2015/01/21 (Patch 6.0.3)
I think people are over-thinking this battle.

This is essentially a one (plus leveling) pet battle if you are lucky enough to have Chrominius (or any other magic pet that has both arcane explosion and a heal). Someone else mentioned Chrominius but the strategy wasn't as simple as mine.

My strategy is this:

Start out with Arcane Explosion. Then Ancient Blessing. Continue with Arcane Explosion until Ancient Blessing's cool down resets. Spam these two abilities.

This will easily kill The Great Kaliri. Chrominius is still alive (with >1100 health) when Apexis Guardian makes an appearance. Continue with same strategy and Darkwing will die at the same time as Chrominius (without ever having come out).

Apexis Guardian is at half-life when you take out a leveling pet. Either you can one attack Apexis Guardian and switch in an elemental pet (if the pet is low level) or use the leveling pet to kill AG. In either case it's relatively quick and easy.

Also works with Chrominius and Emerald Proto-Whelp

Comment by Hrotha

Want a true soloer? Get your Ruby Droplet out and have no issues what so ever. Easily carried two levelling pets with it.

Comment by Roesia

I used the following:
L25 Rare P/P Iron Starlette - Wind-Up, Toxic Smoke <doesn't matter>, Supercharge
L25 Rare H/S Crimson Geode - Spark, Amplify Magic, Elementium Bolt
L25 Rare B/B Jade Oozeling - Ooze Touch, Corrosion, Expunge

Iron Starlette
- Wind-Up
- Supercharge
- Wind-Up
- if not dead yet, use Toxic Smoke for final hit before final mech death

Crimson Geode
- Elementium Bolt
- Amplify Magic
- Spark x2
- if not dead, repeat the above as per cooldowns allow

Between the Iron Starlette and the Crimson Geode, I was able to kill all three pets, didn't even using Jade Oozeling.

Comment by pipopoke

1. Just spam Arcane Explosion with Chrominius (and an Ancient Blessing here or there).
2. Apexis Guardian will kill Chrominius.
3. Thundertail Flapper's Thunderbolt should kill Nightwing.
4. Lightning Shield and Jolt should kill Apexis Guardian.

Comment by Rhowena

Because of the type change from Feathered Frenzy, it's actually possible to down his entire team with nothing but magic abilities:

-Carry pet (no level requirement)
-Nexus Whelpling (P/P or P/B) with Mana Surge and Arcane Storm
-Arcane Eye with Psychic Blast, Drain Power and Mana Surge

Attack once with your carry pet and swap to Nexus Whelpling.

1. Arcane Storm
2. Mana Surge
3. Mana Surge continues (The Great Kaliri dies)
4. Mana Surge continues
5. Arcane Storm (this hits during Feathered Frenzy for a decent chunk of damage)

At this point, Nexus Whelpling dies from Entangling Roots. Swap in Arcane Eye.

6. Psychic Blast (this will also hit during Feathered Frenzy and should do enough damage to activate Failsafe)
7. Drain Power
8. Psychic Blast (this or the first hit of Mana Surge will finish off Apexis Guardian)
9. Mana Surge

Darktalon will be dead by the time Mana Surge finishes

Comment by Jimmyjoeisdabomb

Almost killed all three with only my Anubisath Idol. Used a Son of Animus to clean up half of the last guy. Very easy, could definitely carry a pet through here.

Comment by Astralon

So far everyone has been writing their own strategy for defeating the guy and missed out something important:

Doom and Gloom! Dooooooooooom and Gloooooooooooooom!

I laughed so hard when I saw this!

It could be a reference to the recent single by the Rolling Stones though.

Comment by Tyrnade

With this tactic, you don't even fight Darkwing. It dies from collateral damage. I've managed to beat him 9/9 times using this composition:

1) Chrominius (2,2,2).
2) Any pet with Thunderbolt.
3) Carry pet / Elekk plushie (500 health should be more than enough).

Against The Great Kaliri:
Round 1) Start off with Chrominius and use his Arcane Explosion ability.
Round 2) Use Arcane Explosion again.
Round 3) Use Ancient Blessing.
Round 4+) Spam Arcane Explosion until The Great Kaliri is dead or until Ancient Blessing is off cooldown.

Against Apexis Guardian:
Round 1) Start off with Arcane Explosion.
Round 2) Use Surge of Power, because Chrominius will die on the next turn, but that's fine.
Round 3) Swap in your carry pet. Keep in mind it will take some damage, but shouldn't be more than 300.
Round 4) Swap in your Thunderbolt pet, which will finish off the already injured Darkwing.
Round 5) If Apexis Guardian is still alive at this point, he should be at very low health, so just finish him off.

Comment by EmCee88

Tried a lot of strats from this post for An Awfully Big Adventure but in the end was forced by RNG and impatience to put my own team together; thought I'd share because I found this a frustrating one to pull off with a two-pet combo.

In the end, this is the line-up that works for me maybe 85% of the time. Fair warning, though, RNG can leave you one hit away from a win, stuck with a lowbie who just can't make it. :(

Team:
1) Chrominius with Arcane Explosion, Ancient Blessing, Surge of Power (though third move doesn't matter)
2) Crimson Whelpling with Breath, Healing Flame, Lift Off
3) Elekk Plushie or levelling pet of your choice
To be safe here, if you're not after An Awfully Big Adventure, make sure your low pet is at a reasonable level (around 10+) so it has some firepower, which should bring this up to nearly certain success.

Rotation:

Chrominius to start. Arcane Explosion as often as you can, Ancient Blessing whenever it's off cooldown - generally I use it when The Great Kaliri uses Caw, to mitigate some of the extra damage. This rotation wipes out The Great Kaliri and has the added benefit of reducing Darkwing down to low, low health in the backline.

Apexis Guardian switches in, maintain rotation. Entangling Roots will soon overcome Ancient Blessing's healing, so if it looks like you're on the verge of death try to squeeze in a Surge of Power, though this isn't essential.

When Chrominius dies, bring in Crimson Whelpling. Here again you want to heal as often as you can off cooldown, and the key is to use Lift Off when you're hit by Entangling Roots to avoid its high damage. Crimson Whelpling should have higher speed and this can therefore be used the turn after he's entangled you, so you know the avoidance isn't waste. Otherwise just spam Breath until Apexis Guardian is no more.

Darkwing is on low health already from Chrominius's Arcane Explosions, but it can and will pull off large heals with Consume Corpse. Luckily, he will use Anzu's Blessing for the buff on his first turn, so you have a bit of extra time. This is where RNG plays a factor - if your turns mean that Lift-Off doesn't come off cooldown at the start, he will heal up and you're basically racing with Breath and Healing Flame (and Lift-Off whenever possible) to down him before he downs you.

Warning! 85% of the time this works well and Darkwing is downed quickly and easily, with ample time to switch in your levelling pet for a turn, but there will always be a few incidents when he's at around 10-20% health and your carry pet is so low it quite wipe him out.

To reiterate, this is not a 100% effective strategy! However, if like me you found the others listed here just weren't working, it's definitely worth a shot, as it's by far the most reliable two-pet team I've managed to find so far.

Comment by 1456400

There are probably some better pets to win this fight but, for those who don't have special pets, I was able to win with Leopard Scorpid, Emerald Turtle and Curious Wolvar Pup. (In that order, both level 25 rare quality).

Comment by enough01

@Sybreedx his strat worked very well,

I tried it, but in an different way, hope this will help you to

I started with Elek and then switched to Chromi, howl arcane arcane till he's dead
Mech decoy thunder, breath breath.

When the seccond mob for the seccond time entangled, bring Elek, He/she/it can take the damage 3 rounds, bring Mech back decoy, thunder.

Chromi can finish the last mob.

Have a nice day

Enough= Enough

Use Brightpaw, he one-shot The Great Kaliri and Darkwing. However, you do need 2 pets that can hold their own on
Apexis Guardian and The opening of Darkwing before he heals himself to full health. I used Dark Phoenix Hatchling, which could have taken out Apexis Guardian with one more turn. I also used Moon Moon, Moon Tears healed Brightpaw a bit so he could crush Darkwing. Maybe I got lucky, but Brightpaw hit Darkwing for 2285.

Comment by Deien

Changed my strat for leveling any pet or doing Plushie:

Chrominius - Arcane Explosion, Ancient Blessing, Surge of Power 2-2-2

Mechanical Pandaren Dragonling - Breath, Thunderbolt, Decoy 1-2-2

Carry Pet: always nice if it can do any kind of damage spell on the back row like Cyclone, or put a debuff on them, or a spell that gives a buff or heals to your team. Every little bit helps but make sure the spell you choose only keeps your pet in combat for 1 round and does not help Vesharr's team!

The fight:
The Great Kaliri opens with Caw, causing no damage just boosting Crit chance.
Open with Carry Pet for one round casting the spell you have chosen.

Swap in Chrominius for round 2 and spam Arcane Explosion. When Chrominius is down more than 500 points in Health use Ancient Blessing, and then cast Blessing every 3 rounds as it comes off cooldown while you continue spamming Arcane Explosion until Kaliri dies.

When Apexis Guardian comes out check Chrominius's health. If 500 or more, cast Arcane Explosion - if not, skip to Surge of Power
Next cast Surge of Power

Mechanical Pandaren Dragonling.
Cast Decoy
Cast Thunderbolt
Spam Breath on anything left alive

Comment by MeekaArch

For this I used Nether Faerie Dragon, Wild Jade Hatchling and Chrominius.

NFD- Arcane Blase, Life Exchange, Moonfire

WJH-Tail Sweep, Roar, Liftoff

Chro-Arcane Explosion, Howl, Surge of Power

I started with Moonfire and used Arcane Blast until my health was low then used Life exchange. Rinse Repeat until dead then brought in WHJ, started with Roar, then used liftoff on cooldown and just used sweep until dead then brough in Chro and just had to use Surge of Power.

Good luck!

Comment by S7orm

Setup for leveling a pet:
1. Anubisath Idol (1,2,1)
2. Chrominius (x,1,2)
3. carry pet (no requirements)

- start with Anubisath Idol vs The Great Kaliri
- cast Stoneskin and refresh it every time you have 1 stack, cast Crush otherwise
- Vesharr brings out Apexis Guardian
- after Apexis Guardian casts Entangling Roots you use Deflection, otherwise keep the same priority as against The Great Kaliri
- Vesharr brings out Darkwing
- switch to carry pet, Darkwing will cast Anzu's Blessing
- switch to Chrominius
- cast Howl > Surge of Power
- you won, 20-21 turns required

If you're a scrub like me or just a newbie, and working with a lot of not so great pets, but want an elekk on your team or otter leveling pet, try sunreaver then nether faerie. It's luck dependent, but I got it on the first try.

Comment by tokidokifish

My go-two two pet strategy has been

Nexus Whelpling with Tail Sweep / Mana Surge / Arcane Storm
Enchanted Lantern with Burn / Flash / Light

1. Start off with Arcane Storm
2. Cast Mana Surge
3. Mana Surge continues

The Great Kaliri should be dead at this point, bringing out Apexis Guardian

4. Mana Surge ends
5. Tail Sweep
6. Arcane Storm (this should be the round that Apexis Guardian casts Feathered Frenzy)
7. Tail Sweep until Nexus Whelpling dies, if it hasn't already

Switch to your leveling pet, and then immediately to Enchanted Lantern

8. Burn until Apexis Guardian dies
9. Flash once Darkwing comes out
10. Light

Darkwing should die. If it doesn't, just use Burn.

Comment by Holyyfield

Slight variation from one posted below for people who don't have Chrominius:

Set up:
1. Anubisath Idol (1,2,1)
2. Mechanical Pandaren Dragonling (1,2,2)
3. carry pet (no requirements)

- start with Anubisath Idol
- cast Stoneskin and refresh with 1 stack remaining, Crush otherwise
- Vesharr brings out Apexis Guardian
- after Apexis Guardian casts Entangling Roots use Deflection, otherwise keep the same priority as before
- Vesharr brings out Darkwing
- switch to carry pet, Darkwing will cast Anzu's Blessing
- switch to Mechanical Pandaren Dragonling
- Thuderbolt on CD
- You can Decoy after Darkwing casts his damage buff, otherwise, Breath Spam

These worked for me:
1- Emerald Proto-Whelp ( Proto Strike - Breath - Ancient Blessing - Proto Strike - Breath )
2- Mechanical Pandaren Dragonling ( Decoy - Thunderbolt - Breath - Thunderbolt - Breath )
2- Oily Slimeling ( Expunge - Corrosion - Corrosion - Absorb - Corrosion)

Comment by SchlockN

Well, Vesharr used to be not that bad. Now, every time I get a pet combo that works, it works for a couple of weeks, Blizzard does "maintenance", and then it doesn't work.

Right now, the only two pet strategy that works for me is:
Nexus Whelping (P/S) 1,2,2
Mechanical Pandaren Dragonling (S/S) 1,2,2
With a min lvl pet of 5, The higher lvl the pet, the more assist you have against RNG

Nexus Whelping:
Arcane Storm
Mana Surge (1st Pet dies)
Arcane Storm
Tail Sweep till Nexus Whelping dies
Swap in lvl pet and swap out

Mechanical Pandaren Dragonling:
Breath until 2nd pet dies
Decoy
Thunder Bolt
Breath until 3rd pet dies

It can be close so the higher lvl'ing pet is a safer bet

Comment by helic0pter96

For An Awfully Big Adventure, I used:

- Lvl 5 Elekk Plushie (587hp)
- Lvl 25 Chrominius (mine is 1644 hp / 276 power / 260 speed)
- Level 25 Arcane Gorger (mine is 1506hp / 281 power / 273 speed)

Started with Elekk Plushie (But you probably don't need to), then switched to Chrominius.

Used Arcane Explosion once
Used Ancient Blessing
Arcane Explosion until Ancient Blessing was off cooldown
Should be able to kill the first pet and Vesharr's last pet with Arcane Explosion
Used Surge of Power when I believed it was the last move before Chrom would die

I only needed Arcane Gorger to kill off the middle/remaining pet:

Deflection
Feedback x 2 or 3 (I can't remember how many it took to kill him
**I did use Drain Power toward the end; I think this was the move right before he rez'd himself
Deflection when off cooldown (if needed; I believe I used this right after he rez'd)
Feedback to finish the last pet

Sorry this isn't put together super well! I'm still experimenting and didn't record everything.

It was close but worked out using these level 25 pets;
Celestial Dragon (1,2,1)
Stormborne Whelping (1,2,2)
and Mechanical Pandaren Dragonling (1,2,2)
When I do this again, I'll lead with MPD using decoy and then swap to CDragon.

Started with Celestial Dragon (lvl25) against Darkwing; had Flamethrower, Ancient Blessing, and Moonfire.

Then switched to Lava Crab (lvl 23) against Apexis Guardian; had Burn, Cauterize, and Conflagrate.

Finally switched to Golden Dragonhawk Hatchling (lvl 25 - with Quills, Conflagrate, and Flamethrower ) against The Great Kaliri but it died, then switched back to Celestial Dragon to finish and win the battle.

This guy, yeah not a fan of him that much if at all.

Pets needed and in order:
1. Nether Faerie Dragon
2. Fel Flame
3. Chorminius

1. Nether Faerie Dragon (2,2,1) (Use during battle: 2-2-2-(Great Kaliri dies, enter the Apexis Guardian.)
2-2 or 2/1) (If you can get off another Moonfire in ok, if not you'll be fine, but then the Nether Faerie Dragon dies.) (Enter your Fel Flame.)
2. Fel Flame (1,1,2) (Use during battle: 2-1-1 (Apexis Guardian dies, Enter Darkwing.) 2-1-1-1-1-2-1-1-2-1 (Fel Flame dies.) (Enter your Chorminus.)
3. Chorminius (2,2,2) (Use during battle: 2- Only add 2 if Darkwing is not dead after Surge of Power.)

Hope this helps, good hunting everyone.

Bring in your Mechanical Pandaren Dragonling
Turn 1 Breath
Turn 2 Thunderbolt
Turn 3+ Breath until Apexis Guardian resurrects
Then: Explode - your small pet gets the full experience points :-)

Nov 2023 - Carry strat (can only boost 1 pet, but can be a lvl 1 pet):

lead with carry pet - use an attack then swap to:
Lil"tarecgosa (2/2/2) - Spam Arcane Explosion until dead.
Swap in Stormborne Whelpling (1/1/1) - Thunderbolt, Call lightning, then tail sweep until win.

Works great for me with any carry pet.
