One of the visually largest pets in the game.

A tribute to Snowflake, the worlds only known albino gorilla whom died in 2003.

Commento di Thottbot

I saw a fellow hunter with this guy last week and whispered him to tell him how cool the gorilla looked. The hunter was kind enough to tell me his "game-name" and where he had tamed him. I had been in the gorilla cave in Un'goro many times and had never seen him so I was sure he'd be difficult to find.

I went to the cave a few times over the next serveral days with not luck. I even tried killing all the gorillas outside and inside the cave in hopes that he would spawn. No luck there either.

Finally this morning I head over to Un'goro for some soil and decided to pop in the cave just to check, since I was there anways. Well I got sucked into finding him and began to work my way into the cave. Once I reached the mini "boss" I turned back, knowing he's a quest kill and not wanting to take him from any of the other players in the cave. I was working my way out, checking my mini map from time to time, when I saw his dot right next to the boss. I had been there not 5 mins before and the only two in with the boss were stompers. I ran back and was able to pull each gorilla easily (as I'm lvl 58 and they're lvls 51-53). After killing the 3 I was alone with Uhk'loc. He proved difficult to tame. You def. need the ice trap because he stomps and throws you backward, interupting the taming. Once it didn't take and the other 5 times he came out of the trap just in time to throw me across the cave. At this point the boss and others had respawned and I had to start all over. All in all it took about half an hour before he was tamed. Also I was lucky enough not to get interupted by any players. He comes with bite 7 and -21 points. The one I tamed was a lvl 53.

I would def. advise you check out the back where the "boss" is first. Also just hang around the middle of the cave and keep your track beasts on and you'll be able to see him if he pops. I don't believe he's triggered by any killings because I had cleaned the cave out several times before with no success. You can tame him solo with no problem, but if you're in your low 50s it may be difficult to separate him from the other 3 without dying a couple times. They criss-cross each other and if you pull agro you'd have all 4 on you. Also there is a pat that came through 3 times during my taming. May not be a bad idea to take a guildie along or spam for some help if you just happen upon him.

Good hunting to you all!

ok guys just tamed him after the server restart today, 4.5 hours after servers were up he spawns. time is approx. popped in and out all day could have spawned earlier but i'd doubt it. hope you guys have as much luck as i did..

PS, make sure yer ready, as in freeze trap down, and within taming range, also DONT try to tame with other peeps around.. just a big hassle unless grouped, and they know what to do, dont ask me how i know. :)

Commento di Thottbot

Just tamed that nice beast with support of a friend. :-)

It was tough: we cleared the cave, but the gorillas have less then a few minutes respawn time. You basically have ONE chance of taming him when your companion isn�t a class that also can lose aggro completely. Because out of frost trap it�s absolutely impossible to tame him, and even if you trap him in combat: as soon as Uhk'loc is out again, he will push you backwards and resist the tame.

The magic trick is to get as far as away from Uhk'loc as you can - of course, you must still be in shooting range. Lay a frost trap. Shoot the shot that slows him down (no English language pack, sorry, but you know what I mean). If the shot misses - feign death and try again. As soon as he comes in tamable range, start the tame - you�ll need every bit of a second. If he resists the ice trap, feign death and try again. Actually no need for aspect of the monkey here; he makes you fly anyway.

Remember: you MUST keep him in that ice trap during the whole taming. Then it should work out well. After several tries at least it worked out well for me. :-)

I�ll add a screenshot later. Really a cool animal, comes with bite 7 and was on level 52. Got two /whispers in the first five minutes about where he comes from. ^^

Commento di Thottbot

Does he spawn in the same spot where U'cha is? Got level 52 today and headed right into the cave, by now I killed U'cha 3 times lol, he's on a fast respawn due to being a quest target.
Uhk'lok wasn't there yet so I logged there. But if he doesnt spawn where U'cha does then I could just camp somewhere else in the cave and wouldn't have to bother with U'cha every few minutes ;-)

Commento di Thottbot

haha i tamed this guy (he was lvl 52) this morning while 2 other apes beat on me. it was funny as hell. i dint think it would stick but it did and then he and i proceeded to kick booty.

with the new patch (adding you AC and stats to your pet) this guy is a sick tank with massive hp and AOE aggro gatherer(once you put it on him)

I toyed around with the thunderers before I found him this morning. As far as i can tell, thunderstomping gorrillas hold aggro much better than most any other pets. They are the only pet's that i can multishot into and not grab the adds (well sometimes).

Cheers for this big silver nerd

Commento di Thottbot

Just picked this guy up, and he looks great! Thanks for all the very useful info here. I doubt it'll add anything, but here's what I did:

1) Cleared up to the 'doorway'.

2) Found the range where Tame JUST became active, and set a freeze trap there.

3) Stepped back to JUST inside where my shot range was.

4) Waited for him to wander a bit and seperate himself from U'cha.

5) Pulled with a concussive shot and began Tame as SOON as it was available.

6) He came slowly, because of the concussive shot, and hit the trap just as concussive was ending. My trap ran out with about 0.2 seconds left, but since I was standing a bit back of that, he never had a chance to attack me.

So there it is: one attempt, one tame. I should add that it took me three days to actually find him alone, without somebody else ganking him. He looks great and I have yet to see another Alliance hunter with him on Kul Tiras.

Cheers, and good luck!

Camped him for 5.5 Hours. I was in the middle of Taming him when a horde came in killed me and then killed Uhk'loc.

I then got a buddy to camp with me and just over 5 hours and 20 minutes later he respawned and after one attempt i had him. Its worth it tho. Now its time to pick a name.

Commento di Thottbot

I have been after this guy for the last few days since I hit lvl 53, after 4days and no luck I was getting slightly frustrated. This morning at around 9:00 am game time however I logged in breifly and made a dash into the cave and there he was in all his white glory, however I got beaten to pulp by all the other gorillas and didn't have time to come back for him as I had to leave for work.

I came back on at around 19:00 game time and had a look and he wasn't there so I went back to IF to do some stuff, then went back at about 21:00 game time and there he was. There was another hunter there who helped me out with the tame, I dropped a freeze trap about half tame range away and then went back and concussion shot him and started the tame, when he hit the first trap my fellow hunter dropped a second freeze trap just in front of me so he charged straight from one trap to the next and the tame went off without a hitch.
All he needs now is a good name :D

Edit: forgot to add he was lvl 52 when he showed up.

And here's a pic :D and I called him Frostbite

Commento di Allakhazam

damn, i looked for him but i can't seem 2 find him, i only thgat red/brown one (u'kla? something..) how long does it take before Uhk'Loc spawns again? i really really want him ^^ he's the coolest pet ever...

Commento di Allakhazam

By the way, he was level 52 for me.

Commento di Allakhazam

Where if you want him you gotta sacrifice a few hours/maybe days to camp out n look for him, hes not a regular spawn so of course your not gonna see him at first have patience.Im still looking for him.

Commento di Allakhazam

Started my camp of Fungal Rock at 5pm server time. Got to the back of the cave just as he was being tamed by another hunter.

At 1am I logged real quick to check my mail and when I came back (1-2min) he was there in the very back of the cave. He didn't wander at all just hung out in the same spot.

Layed a trap, concussion shot, tame and it took me about 5 tries before I got him without his damn knock back breaking the tame.

So, 5-8 Uncommon spawn he is and I'd say he's worth the wait. ;)

GL Hunters!

Commento di Allakhazam

anyone know exactly what lvl he is and about how long it takes to spawn again?

Commento di Allakhazam

Tamed him today. He was 52nd level and came with Bite Rank 7.

Commento di Allakhazam

Ive just tamed him this morning. After hours of camping over there, I logged out in a safe place inside the cave. This morning when I logged in he was over there waiting for me.

Just had to kill two or three gorillas, then used that strategy of freezing trap, and pulling with concussive shot.

Commento di Allakhazam

Tamed at 12:40 PM Server Time (PST) on Hyjal-US

I am on CST locally, so all times are +2 hrs, apologies for the long post.

Camped his spawn last night from 5 PM server to 9:50 PM server. He appeared as a 53, I was a 52 sadly. I reset his timer, watched for his next respawn (lots of posts saying both 5.5 hrs and 8 hrs between spawns). He did not show up at 3:20 AM server (approx 5.5 hrs after reset) camped the area with absolutely no one in the vicinity for half an hour. Did not spawn (was not on a 6 hr timer).

Re-logged to check the 8 hr timer mark (6:50 AM server). Spawned. Again, 53. Again, reset timer.

Spent the next few hours leveling to 53. Azshara is a great place to level up btw, especially as a hunter. Plenty of quests including the class quest chain to do there.

Showed up for the 5.5 hr timer mark 30 mins early. Waited. No spawn. Assumed the spawn was on an 8 hr timer once again. Stayed to check for a 6 hr timer.

Spawned at 6 hrs. Two interrupts, failed tames, if the ice trap does not last longer than the tame, he will instant-cast a knock-back. Beware. Respawn, without a pet. Tamed the nearest spawn (Thunderer patrol), was standing at the balcony at all times. Immediately abandoned. Waited for U'cha to path away from Uhk'loc. Stood a hair behind the freezing trap. Concussive shot followed by an immediate tame-pet command. Had an extra second left before the trap timer ran out. First time attempted, failed even with the tame timer completing. Second time, success.

Bottom line: Random 6/8 hour spawn. Focus on having tame duration last shorter than trap. Random spawn as a 52 or a 53 but all three times showed up as a 53. Don't rely on a 52 spawn.

Additional note: Fed pet and cleared my way back out of the cave. Kept happiness up and killed mobs in the vicinity of the cave for about 15 minutes. Shortly after reaching loyalty rank 2: unruly message displays on my screen: SERVER RESET IN 15 MINUTES.

Amazing, all that work to manage the spawn timer could have been negated by a server reset randomly as I could have been offline.

Tips: Do make sure to bring ample provisions: mana pots/health pots. I did not use potions, but did have to drink and eat a few times. If you plan on camping the area and not killing, stay on the platform to the left of the cubby where U'cha is (from an entering the room perspective). There is a Stomper that usually spawns there every five to ten minutes or so. Also note, there is a Thunderer pat that spawns at approximately the same rate.

If you decide to sit there without killing (FD cycles) remember that FD no longer kills you if it runs out and that you can avoid everything but the Thunderer pat by standing at the far end of the balcony. There is a gorilla below that will see you and put you into combat if you get too close to the outer edge, but he just evade bugs until you leave combat. Just be sure if you're FD timer isn't up to lay a freezing trap and put on aspect of the monkey. Stand there and take a few hits if the timer is still ticking away. You will regen health while feigned.

Good luck.

What the mod is that they are using to get stats or does it just come with being a Hunter?

Commento di Allakhazam

Lvl 52 NE Hunter. I entered the cave and started clearing using a disposable Thunderer that I just tamed to learn Thunderstomp 3 (btw, bring lots of extra fruit to feed the disposable pet and even more to feed Uhk'loc once tamed). Cleared all the way to the back, but trying to solo this I had problems with respawns ganking me from behind. I had a fellow guildy bring his lvl 60 Rogue to help clear and it made life much easier. Layed a freezing trap, pulled with concussive, started taming, failed, feined. Did this three times and failed. She has a nasty Knockback that interupts taming. Fourth time, perfect, textbook. She comes with Bite rank 7.

Commento di Allakhazam

After farming Fungal Rock for the last 8 and a half hours, I finally got him. He is so kool. Thanks to all who posted here with their tips on how they tamed him, worked a treat. Freezing trap does the trick.

Commento di Allakhazam

is it?

Commento di Allakhazam

A friend of mine was doing a quest in there when he spotted this puppy. I raced there as fast as I could , abandoning my old level 20 plainstrider on the way. Some alliance almost nabbed him when I was really close to the cave, when my friend hit him and had the mage in his group sheep it over and over until I came and tamed him. He was still sheeped when I did, so I didn't get interrupted. It was awesome.

Commento di Allakhazam

I, 53 NE Hunter just tamed him 11:00 Noon approx. Hakkar server time!

earlier on in the day (around 8:00) I cleared the whole cave of gorillas. I waited a few minutes and cleared a few more gorillas, then logged. I got on again at 10:10 and cleared a little more. Then i logged on about 20 minutes later to find that some stupid hunter killed him =(. I heard evry1 say he had a 4.5 - 8hour respawn rate and i was discouraged. I was camping at the balcony, btw. A Gorilla atked me so I feigned. I got rid of him and was bout to log wen i saw on my minimap, Uhk'loc! I was so suprised! well, neway i tried 5 times and on 5th time i got him w/ out taming process being resisted or stopped.

The Trick 2 taming him is go behind the rock on the balcony in the room wer he is and wait. If u see him, tame the Gorilla near u (if its already respawned) and kill un'goro gorilla next 2 him, then abandon. U just got rid of 2 gorillas easily =D. Then put on AOTM and freezing trap. Use scorpid and once hes in taming range (and away from U'cha) use concussive and hit tame. Then if ur lucky u hav him!

P.S. Once i got him, I hearthed 2 BB and quickly flew 2 Redridge and fed him. (always keep him in stable if u hav no food 4 him. I named him Uhkloc 2 honor his heratige =).

Commento di Allakhazam

i tamed him at 3:20 PST on Spinebreaker. then decided to go check out winterspring to see about getting Rak'Shiri and not 25 min later i find him walking around! i am the happiest 57 hunter on spinebreaker!

Commento di Allakhazam

this right here, is my dream pet.....and guess wat NOT TAMEBLE NOOOOOOOOOOOO

Commento di Allakhazam

This guy is tamable, but it is not easy to do because of his special attack that throws you in the air and interrupts the taming. He was level 52 when I tamed him. It took 3 attempts. He does not come with thunderstomp rank 3, he comes with bite rank 7. You can teach him thunderstomp, which you can get from other gorillas.

The picture on this page is outdated, because where it says "Cannot be Tamed" is absolutely not correct. He most certianly and definitely can be tamed, although difficult.

The other posts which said he comes with thunderstomp may be confusing this white rare spawn with the brown named one, U'cha.

Also, you also cannot "spam" the ability since it has a 1 minute cooldown. Spamming implies repeatedly and quickly, which cannot be done with thunderstomp. You can do it once every minute, if you want to call that spamming, okay, fair enough.

On a side note, thunderstomp rank 2 is powerful enough to kill every mob that spawns after you kill the armorer in Scarlet Monestary. Iv'e done it, put gorilla in aggressive mode, and he killed every one with one stomp, which I control, making it impossible to loot any of the bodies (oh well).

Probably the best way to use the stomp ability is to make it manual where you control it, not on automatic. This ability alone makes the gorilla an unbelievably nice pet to have and quite possibly the most usefull pet to have, at least in many situations.

Commento di Allakhazam

Found the elusive Uhk'loc on the Argent Dawn Server - about 6pm Eastern.. My second try.
He was within a few feet of U'cha, but the two pathed apart frequently.
I found that if you clear the pathway leading the the area where U'cha is, that you can drop the frost trap outside the "doorway"
When the two are far enough apart, and Uhk'loc is close enough, pull him.
I managed to get through 90% of the tame with him trapped, but because I pulled from the max distance.. He was on me as soon as the trap faded.
Three times in a row, he did Uppercut. This breaks tame.
Feigned all three times, but by then, the other apes spawned. Died.
Had a friend help me clear, and 4th try was golden. He didn't uppercut, hit me once, and I had him!
Did this at level 52. He has Bite 7. Good luck.

Commento di Allakhazam

I was in the gorilla caves in Un'goro looking for thorium ore (always two or three small deposits there), when I see the lvl 55 reddish-orange "boss ape" that is always there (forget his name). I wait for him to patrol by and then run over to mine some ore. When I'm done, another ape is there, a white one. I had never seen him before and sure enough he was a rare. I pulled him solo and flattened him. He's the same level as a Stomper gorilla but he will knock you up into the air (and at least once he ran under me while I was flying up so he was behind me when I landed).

He dropped a "Righteous Helmet of the Monkey"... I just about busted a gut laughing! It's nothing special to look at but the fact that it was an "...of the Monkey" item was hilarious (obviously "...of the Gorilla" would have been perfect but this was still pretty darn funny).

Commento di Allakhazam

Just saw this guy - he was a 53 elite.

Commento di Allakhazam

Hi all ! I am just have to ask. You said you tamed this beast, but on the picture above it says... Cannot be tamed !
Have they change that in on of the patches or what is it that I have missed...

Take care...

Commento di Allakhazam

Assuming he doesn't resist a freeze trap, you can hold him for 30 secs without being hit.

Drop 1 trap, and wait 30 secs for the timer to run down, then shoot him normally once to pull. Once he steps on it, run a few steps away and lay another. The second should hold him until the first tame process finishes, but it never guarantees that it will work (fiegning death to get out of trouble if it fails).

I use this process to tame every pet I use (It came into its own when I tried to capture King Bangalash...)

Commento di Allakhazam

Found him yesterday in the cave.....he didn't drop squat. Oh, well. I wasn't looking for him so nothing lost but still a little disappointing.....

Commento di Allakhazam

I was just trying to finish a few quests in Un'goro, just trying to level to 57 so i can start camping Rak'shiri, and there he was. Dropped the frost wolf i picked up in AV, laid down a trap and started to tame. Got him first try since my freezing trap lasts longer than it takes to tame. 2nd rare spawn I tamed without having to camp.

Commento di Allakhazam

i hung out around the area for a day and found it, one hard tame i mean i had some random people haleping me. becaue of its stupid attack that broke tame and the tame failing. Got it to lv 53 but i quit playing for a while so mabye in a few months when i feel like playing wow ill lv it. not to mention some farmor bot lv60 palli called Antistiff is always in the cave.

Commento di Allakhazam

why could'nt we tame it !

I bumped into this Ape while I was doing the U'cha quest (he was in the same room) I ganked him pretty easily (lvl 60 with epics^^) he dropped a green cloth belt with eagle stats (int/sta) sold it for 1 g on AH

Commento di Allakhazam

This is a beautiful beast and a great pet from what i've seen so far, I just got him today as a 58 hunter, camped him for about 2 hours, and JUST as soon as he was mine, a horde team of 5 rolled through the entire cave killing everything, thank GOD! Best of luck to all the hunters out there trying to get this magnificent ape!

Commento di Allakhazam

Camped Fungal Rock for about 6-7 hours, I washed the car, made dinner and did the dishes while I waited. He spawned back in the back of the cave where Uh'rah (or whatever that 55 gorilla is in the back). Came with bite 7. Keys to training him.

1) He does not come with thunderstomp, so train a thunderstomper before you train him or else you'll find yourself having to make two trips.

2) Found him in the back of the cave near the other high lvl gorilla I forgot his name. He was in a really confided area. Lots of gorillas near him. When I tried to train him I got alot of attention from the other gorillas. I had to time it right but I trained him first try.

Commento di Allakhazam

this guy tameable? he's not listed in the beast "family" section.. if so anone know stats?
may have to find out myself if noone knows..

Commento di Allakhazam

First time i encountered this guy i was amazed by him , I wanted him so badly. However i was a 51 and he was a 52. =[ Dam - so I lvled up to 52 and went back to get him. I waited for about 3 hours and he finnally showed up, but this time he was a 53! OMG WTF was i ever pissed. So im now going to lvl up and try again. Hopefully i dont have to wait so long. He is such a cool pet and the gorrilla in my opinion is the best pet to have when soloing...Thunderstop takes all the aggro and i never get hit once when im with my lvl 51 gorrilla from Feralas.

Anyway I will post back when and if I get him. Wish me luck, I can see why he is hard to tame due to his ability to send you flying in the air, and of corse makes you restart the tame.

Commento di Allakhazam

just to clear things up, is he a mob that you have to summon or is he just a rare spawn like brokentooth ?

Commento di Allakhazam

why does it sxay cannot be tamed?

Commento di Allakhazam

planned to get this guy at 53, as i thought he would be that lvl,
found him and his hairy red friend while grinding the cave, totally by luck, he was 52
really no decision between him and his non rare counterpart, hes an awesome pet

heavily recomended!

Commento di Allakhazam

wow is he really larger than a troll?

Commento di Allakhazam

This cool guy is tameable as of 1.9:

Standard ape, nothing special as far as stats/abilities except that he came w/thunderstomp rank 3.

Pretty cool pet though :)

Commento di Allakhazam

I started lucky, I looked here to see where he was, went in the cave, and there he was. So I started taming him, when lo and behold, a crew of players barges in and kills everything, including my monkey! Claimed "They received no message" when I politely asked them not to kill him as soon as I saw them. What can ya do though besides be angry.

Commento di Allakhazam

found him today, he is one level to high for me to tame, so i go out in un'goro to kill a few mobs to get the level. finaly got 52 :), go in to tame him and i see a flippin mage kill him :(.

anyone know the respawn time for him ?

Commento di Allakhazam

Tamed this guy about a week ago. I watched the pattern all the apes were going in and waited
for him to get closer to entrance dropped trapped and tamed him just as trap timed out.
Very easy. I was 53 and he did not come with thunderstomp. I tamed a lvl 53 black thunderstomp gorilla outside to get trained in it before i headed in.
He is very cool pet and has been a good tank.
Only a couple on my server that I've seen.
Get a lot of comments on him.

Tamed him february 16, on the Kilrogg server with my 60 hunter. Took me 2 frightful attempts to tame. hes so awesome looking with his blue skin and white fur ^^ i even get a few comments here and there about him.

Commento di Allakhazam

I first discovered uhk'loc when I saw him on another hunter. I asked where he was etc and told him I'd train him by the end of the weekend. He loved how he was under the impression that he was the only one who had him. When I showed him mine, the first words he typed. "noooooooooooooooooooooooo".

Commento di Allakhazam

I have to wonder if he is even still in game. I've been sitting in his room clearing since about 9 server time it is now almost 2 server time. no sign of him and the hunter who was here when I got here said she'd been sitting about as long. So he MAY be gone.
