Mount huntFollow

No biggie. I "only" have 8 real toons anyhow, and I'll be wanting to play them all to try out the new talent trees.

I got it about three weeks ago. Had more or less abandoned any hopes of getting it and was only buying the egg out of habit. Somehow things like this always happen when you are least expecting them.

Edit. Also huge gratz on your new mounts! :)

I was in shock a couple of weeks ago when I realized I didn't have all the mounts or pets from the Argent Tournament. I did those, at least in my eyes, to death back in Wotlk, but then again I wasn't much into pets or similar mounts at the time, so I got the tabard for the teleport (awesome every time I need to go get another one of those eggs for the Green Proto), Grundig for the utility, and a couple more mounts. I'd like to go back to farming what I don't have yet, but it's going to have to wait, quite a long while in fact. Tomorrow I'll do the last of those "Go get me 125 marks scrub" MF quests, and overtomorrow, yeah 5 days before MoP, I'll start taking shots at the bloody pet. Doing those dailies is just about how many dailies I can do on a given day before I fall asleep.

Then, MoP will hit with its own many dailies and gearing up, so I'll have to forgo dailies for a bit there as I concentrate on those. Depending on what that brings I guess I'll start looking into the TB fox and the Spectral Wolf from TB (I have 80 tokens, that's it so far only), and when I'm done with that I'll look perhaps into re-visiting those dailies again and grind me all the mounts and pets, which combined should take around what ... Two months? Insane XD.

I'll be all over VP and Stonecore though, I want those two mounts.

I just couldn't resist ....



Your guildie must be having a blast this time round then.

The problem with dailies is not the staggering amount of them IMO, it's rather the VP acquisition rate. Heroics are boring as ... well, rather boring. To the best of my knowledge not one of them drops any mount, which would in itself be a case for me to farm at least those that do. So if you're left in the cold for now in terms of raiding (hope to change that by mid-late November) there's Challenge modes and dailies.

IMO they need to up the VP rewards in some way, be it the 1st HC of the day to 150 or so or completing a full chain of dailies (last quest in most dailies is unlocked after completing the rest) could grant a greater amount of VPs, nothing too great, perhaps 25-50 VPs.

And we need more mounts!

EDIT: About PVE vs PVP servers, I spent a year-ish o a PVP server before moving to my current PVE server and it took me almost two months to shake that feeling that someone was out to get me, as was the case in a PVP server. I'm not a PVP pro, but for some reason I manage to surive (ie kill) 95% or so off attacks when I'm jumped at in PVP servers. I guess people just get carried away or something, but I seldom see people use their CDs properly in world PVP scenarios.

Aye ... LFR ... thing is my main is a tank. I've spent up to 90 minutes waiting for an invite and so far have yet to set foot in LFR. Go figure ...

I did Kara once, never even realised there was a mount until it dropped for me, love the RNG. MGT dropped first time as well, maybe I should try for Anzu sometime... I'm fairly certain I have the VP mount on one of my characters, I'll have to remember to log onto them all. I reckon I ran UP more times than anyone else in the world during WotLK but I never once seen the drake drop. I was in there virtually every single day, sometimes two or three times a day after the LFD was released, but no joy.

I suppose I should get back to farming Netherdrake Rep someday, but there are already so many dailies taking my attention.

I do like the Booterang...

On an almost related note, I went on a rampage through Outlands last night in an effort to obtain both Mounts and Transmogrification peices. I successfully acquired a full set of Paladin tier 4 (King Maulgar was hard, needed help) but sadly didnt get my Hammer of the Naaru. I was really aiming for the dark Purple version of the Paladin Tier 2 Judgement set, but then I decided to solo Maggie and it just escalated from there.
No luck with the Dark Judgement set, and no sign of a Raven mount either, but aoe looting has made it into a very quick source of cash. I have discovered that I can now solo Kael'thas (after quite a few wipes while refining my tactics), so maybe I'll get myself a Phoenix someday.
So for the next few weeks, or months, I will be farming for Anzu and the Phoenix, and hopefully will be able to pick up a few attractive transmogrification pieces. Wish me luck.
