Opponents that face this fierce chromatic monstrosity just hope it doesn't have Time Stop!
My absolute favorite for battles. He cuts through the full flying teams like butter.
I like using the ancient blessing every cooldown while chipping away at the team with arcane explosion. It activates the dragonkin damage bonus more often.
Great pet. It can defeat almost all opposing pets if one is careful.
Everyone else already said it, get one of these if you can.
It's a great backbone, it can be a good starter, staller or finisher.
Being a Dragonkin, receiving less damage from Flying and his anti-Flying attacks make him especially effective against Flying pets.
Using Arcane Explosion and Blessing, you can last a while before you go out with a bang with Surge of Power. Or powerhouse it with Howl and Surge, or Howl and Ravage. Or use Ravage and Blessing to last even longer.
Choices enough.
Try using Howl then Surge of Power. It is a great finisher.
I have found Chrominius to be quite a helpful pet in many ways, especially levelling other pets. It just annihilates flying pets, and the dragonkin benefits really assist along the way to give a boost to your longevity in the fights.
I have found Arcance Explosion (#2 ability, Slot 1) that you can get as early as Pet Level 10 to be a tremendous way to beat down all the members of the enemies team. There are many times that I'll just use that, along with Ancient Blessing (#2 ability, Slot2) that you can get at pet level 15.
I used to use Howl in Slot 2, but I found that I could go up against several complete 3 pet teams in a row if I used Ancient Blessing instead. Plus it helps to give you that little bit of an edge to keep healing yourself while your opponent is getting beat down.
Slot 3's ability Surge of Power is good especially if you know you are going to die but you'll get that one last hit in!
If you fly, you will die. -Chrominius
How amazing u are, Chrominius! With Pandaren Water Spirit and Anubisath Idol combat all pets (included Dark Gazer) on Tanan Jungle. I love this team!
Having a "mini" Howl Bomb team consisting of just Pandaren Water Spirit and Chrominius is usually enough to win most PvE battles. I spent a while getting Unborn Val'kyr and find I rarely use her in day-to-day battles as it takes longer and is usually overkill. A simple Geyser>Whirlpool>Swap>Howl>Surge will generally do the trick. If not, just add a Bite before the Surge and that can sometimes get you over the top for particularly beefy foes.
Yes , right it was worth the 8 gold I paid for it at the AH.. :)
Wonderful pet to have as part of a Howl team - worth the gold!
(My Howl team: Unborn Val'kyr, Pandaren Water Spirit, Chrominius)
Down with Stitches, Jr!!
Well worth getting a team of this handsome pup!! With 3 of them its the only team which can kick "The Beakinator's" butt! No fuss no muss.
Can I still get chrominius or do I need to do raiding lvl 100? UBRS is lvl 100 now?
EDIT: NVM I forgot ou can get in from outside
Just a hard working guy and reliabe as can be with those Beast of Fables dailes. I just did those for the first time and I would have to say that it's a tie between this guy and the Kun-Lai Runt as to who was my routine clean-up hitter for those dailes. They are both hard working pets!
Use this guy on the majority of my Beasts of Fable dailies, he's a little powerhouse.
If have 2 strong pets with him I wiil use him last to eliminate the 2 round cool down on Surge Of Power. lol but not afraid to bring him in at anytime. What a power house.
A very powerful pet and an excellent ally! Every serious pet battler should have three!
I bought this pet just this morning after my Flawless Battle Stone sold on the AH (very hapy about the gold I got!), and so far, I like it! I can't wait to level it.
One of the most useful pets in my squad.
Regularly sees action for Beasts of Fable and Pandaren trainer dailies.
When you want a massive bash, Chrominius is the go-to pet
Well, dont tame this boss... like i did. Ill get the loot next week....
One of my favorite pets. Howl and Surge of Power are awesome for taking on pretty much any tamer, but they're especially helpful for the Beast of Fable dailies. Start with Chrominius, and in two rounds, they're halfway dead.
