Patch 7.3.0 | Posted: August 29, 2017
This wild pet spawns one at a time inside the giant snow globe in Ironforge and Orgrimmar during the Feast of Winter Veil in-game event. The Globe Yeti runs very quickly and can be tricky to engage into battle. The respawn timer is roughly 30 minutes.
Level 0: 0 0 0
Who makes them? How do they get there? No one knows, except maybe Greatfather Winter.
You find this pet under the big globe in Ironforge/Org. Click Escape (to bring up the game menu), click on Key Bindings, click the Targeting tab, scroll down to "Interact with Target" and assign a key. Then make a Macro to /target Globe Yeti. Put the Macro on your bar and hit it, then hit the button you chose for Interact with Target. This will target the Glove Yeti, and put you in battle with it. Make sure you use Terrible Turnip so you don't kill it (my Yeti was level 1).
A small trick for people farming it.
First, keybind a key to interact with target (a key close to the enter key is recommended).
Next, if you missed it, start a timer, since i spawns 30 minutes after it was killed/captured last.
Once close to the 30 minutes mark, type this into the chat (but don't press enter): /target Globe Yeti
Once it spawns, press enter and spam the key you bound to interact.
With a bit of luck, you'll get it before anyone even notice it spawn :)
2017 Love u guys and dolls. Following ur advice:
Easy peasy now in 2019. They changed the re-spawn rate, and I caught all three of my Globe Yetis within five! minutes (first day of Winter Veil, at 6pm)
Don't forget to use a target macro and Interact with target key bind. Also as a friendly reminder, the Globe Yeti will be level 1-3. So in order to capture him, you'll want to have a pet with Weakening Blow or Superbark on your team.
Good luck and Happy Holidays!
Thanks for the macro+interact bind idea on this pet.. there's almost zero chance of missing a spawn if you're spamming it. A side tip for those who haven't got it yet, looking at the globe as a clock dial with 12 being north this mob always spawns at the 1 o'clock position just slightly outside the globe and then runs inside of the globe on a southwest pathing.
Hemming - Go into the game menu (same menu used to get to macros screen). Tap Key Binding. Tap Targeting. Scroll down until you see Interact with target. Assign a key. I use shift-=. On high population servers I was not fast enough to make it work. Went to RP server and it worked like a charm
Thank you for all the helpful comments below! - I created a level 1 gnome in a low populated RP realm (Thorium Brotherhood) and ran to Kharanos (flightpath to Ironforge is auto for additional toons it seems) - had my macro /tar globe yeti and my key binding set up - got there and immediately caught one! (very important you use a Terrible Turnip or something equal with weakening blow that won't reduce Yeti below 1 point health)
The competition to snag this guy is tough. Do what I did and create a level 1 alt on the lowest population server you can find. I reccomend venturing into a RP or RPPvP realm as they only blend in with populations of the same server type. Just remember to be respectful! Name yourself something fitting of your race and don't go in spamming Toys that make you into a giant Tauren in the middle of Ironforge!
Just a heads up for anyone who hasn't got this cute little guy, be prepared for a long frustrating time. 1 yeti spawns every 30 minutes and there are players out there that are killing them for fun. As others have stated, check low pop servers. I got 2 in an hour by doing a little server hopping.
The macro and interact with target combo works like a charm! Got him as soon as he spawned.
Looks wise, he resembles the Tranquil Mechancial Yeti, but he's a bit more detailed as he's accented with a bit of purple too.
Just to note it's a wild battle (be quick to click it) the yeti is L2
With Winter Veil starting tomorrow, I have been searching everywhere to see where this lil guy drops from!! A present? The Abominable Greench? Grumpus?! If anyone happens to get lucky and find him, please post!! <3 Thanks.
I am used to seeing the paw over the pets you can battle. This fellow didn't have one, so I never even thought to check.
I was a little redundant with my group - I had the Terrible Turnip (Weakening Blow) and the Molten Corgi (Superbark). Low level - mine ended up being level 3 after I caught it.
More than one person must be able to click on this and engage in battle. I know I am not that fast at zeroing in and clicking also several other toons were in the globe with me. I got first shot all three times I went for him.
First time I was unprepared and took a pet line up too strong and had to let him go. The next two times I got a poor and uncommon but had two humanoid stones and made them rare. Nice pet.
I knew the /Tar and /interact w/tar strat BUT I didnt think of the Terrible Turnip. Good call there. I used a lvl 1 Scraps to chew him down and brought in a lvl 8 cavern Moccasin for the trapping. Got him first trap. lvl 2 Poor Quality. Love this site!
If you're dumb like me . . . definitely take note that this pet is low level (1-3) and don't go in with a team of level 25s. Otherwise you're going to wait forever and hate yourself (for at least half an hour) :(
Dreamshaper, upgrade them to rare with a stone and that will fix the ?? and show their breed. Don't need to level them, just upgrade to rare.
Just wanted to point two things:
1) You can catch him rare quality! yay
2) Sadly there are more breeds than warcraftpets.com lists.. :( So the hunt continues.. I hot P/B, H/S and H/B so far.
EDIT: warcraftpets says they all are P/B.. hmm.. maybe Battle Pet BreedID is lying..?
I got one tonight. Came at 12:45. He sure is fast
Alonso2, thanks to the macro and your instructions I was able to catch it my 2nd attempt (1st using the macro and interaction of target).
Grey quality but nothing a quick rare stone won't fix!
