Yeahhh that’s about right xD I still need my green proto, my north and west drake, argent torment mounts and the ghost horse from TB as well. Then of course there are the lk/ulduar achive drakes, my archeology bug and things like that but they are all on a back burner right now. As for the moment I am focusing more on the raid drop mounts I just started farming and that cursed drake of the north wind. Nearing 70 kills and he’s still being stubborn. i keep track of my top mount hunts on the first page of the thread.

Meggers · **Posted:** Fri Jun 22, 2012 2:08 pm

Most people go 100-200+ kills for the north wind drake. XD

Yeaahhh I should have known it would be a long farm. But my friend saw it drop in normal mode on two of his alts while he was just passing through and won one of them. After my luck with slabhide I was kind of hoping for a reasonable amount of kills- like upper 60s or something xD
100 kills down…..

Not much happened this week, farming lots of valor/conquest/honor to try and get some arena gear. Ran into madexx on my way to farm vortex and figured I’d try him out. I like blue and red skin the most but green is kind of pretty.

One big even that happened is my guild downed deathwing for the first time =) it was only on normal and I had downed him with my friend and his guild a few weeks before but our guild isn’t really full of hard core raiders so this was our first time getting that far. We managed to get him down on the last week of Andy’s time card. (He was the gm and the guy who gave me the computer I have now. He lost his job recently and had to pass guild lead since he will be gone for a while)
We all went in to overtime and went passed the regular scheduled raid time to make sure we got him down before he had to leave

So today I was playing the part of a taxi and flying my friend’s baby hunter all over the place to collect the various flames for summer fest when my egg cracks. Instead of living up to my expectations of more (delicious) aged yolk- I got a dragon instead!
I started freaking out and then my friend started freaking out because I just pulled a proto drake out of nowhere and she didn’t know how I got it since we were in the middle of wintersrping at the time. XD
I have to say that I was pleased with the overall time spent trying to get this guy. Very reasonable farm. 15 eggs.

You're getting up there

Woop!

I have been on an elemental hunt lately. Finally got pebbles but the lil scorching and frostling are avoiding me. =/ maybe when I get them all I can summon captain planet…

*ahem* in other news i have hit 45 exsalted reps ^.^

And last but not least I got my glory of the hero.

I was hoping to get it on the same day as my friend but violet hold didn’t feel like spawning the water ele so she is still one achievement away. She did get her black drake though.

This makes my 4th proto drake and I am working on my rusted one now. two more to go before I have them all! Mwahaha!

My achievement partner also says we should work on our cata heroic achieves now and I quite agree.

hope to get to work on that one soon.

Meggers · **Posted:** Wed Jul 04, 2012 10:29 am

Woo! If you ever need extra dps for the cata heroics gimme a ring ;D I have most of them but still need a chunk.

...wait you're EU aren't you?

SylviaDragon · **Posted:** Wed Jul 04, 2012 2:07 pm

US server, if i can pry my real ID from parent controls i will let you know. ;P

Meggers · **Posted:** Wed Jul 04, 2012 3:05 pm

Don't need REALID, I have diablo 3. So just a battletag.

Anonymity stays in tact!

Royi · **Posted:** Thu Jul 05, 2012 10:11 am

Grats on the red, seriously though, when are you going to make your buttons smaller?????

(or get a bartender addon / ui customization addon)

They're out there! You can do it!

SylviaDragon · **Posted:** Mon Jul 09, 2012 11:49 am

Last I heard you need Diablo for the tags to work though. Has that changed? O.o
And I know! my screen is so massively cluttered. I have been trying new layouts but nothing has stuck. Also im a clicker…. I tend to start missing my buttons when they get smaller >,,>
But all of the error messages and battle/raid text do start to clutter up the screen. Just yesterday I was thinking about giving some layouts another try.

Meggers · **Posted:** Mon Jul 09, 2012 2:40 pm

You do need diablo for the tag adding part, I have it. But you don't need it to create a tag. So if you wanted to add people from petopia to your list and they own diablo 3, there you go.

(Basically you give them your battletag and they add you via Diablo 3 and you accept it in wow)

Well I am at 194 vortex runs. I’m now in zombie mode. I don’t even expect it to drop I’m just running it out of habit. Keep trying to beat my own time. Managed to get one boss down in 59 seconds today without using hero. Just wish the trash wasn’t so annoying.

On the other side of things, I have made it a point to run ZG every day. If I can find another geared hunter I hope to start 2 manning things. Hopefully I can strike a deal with someone so that I get the first raptor and they get the first cat. It was actually the zg mount that made me decide to pay for a wow acc when my trial was up so here’s to hoping that the wait will be over soon xD (also red is my fav color :3)
Tried Qing for ZA as well but that place just flat out eats tanks. I never got past the bear boss and if i ever get that far it takes a good 20 min so I had no hopes of getting the mount. Lots of kind guildies offered to run with me but I could never get them all online at the same time. So today I’m chilling out in stormwind (just got back from uldum :roll:

.) and i'm looking for some glory raids when someone starts asking for a dps for a bear run. Seemed pretty legit. The heals had the bear, tank was well geared, inspections held before he let you in. Overall friendly group with the lead willing to put mount on open roll. I had never finished the heroic before but I had ran the 70 raid quite a bit and things were pretty much the same as they were back then. Needless to say we shot through there in no time at all with only one near-wipe that we easily recovered from. Cleared the place out with 9 minutes to spare. Didn’t think I would win against the four other people but I held my breath as we rolled.
I was more then surprised when I rolled 89- beating the second highest roll of 48.

everyone was a good sport about it and I offered to do daily za runs with the tank since he keeps making groups and losing the roll. :

So here is my latest catch ^.^

Probably the only bear I really like. Was always kind of disappointed that I missed getting one back in bc. LOVE the armor.

P.S: I’m working on a dominos layout now- I swear I will stick with it this time! Didn’t relize just how much space my bars were eating up.

I'm pretty sure there's an option to change the scale of the UI in the interface menu. I remember doing it when I got my new monitor.

Not sure if I've said this before or not but try using TukUI for a UI that's basically already done for you and you can customise parts of yourself to your liking. I think you might need to have over a certain screen size to use that UI though, I'm not too sure, and judging by your screenshots your monitor isn't all that big. Give it a go though! Honestly, I went through so many UIs and addons to find something perfect (I'm such a perfectionist with my UI, it's ridiculous.) and I've been using TukUI now for at least two years. (:

Well after weeks of farming, the hunt is at an end. My sister teased me from day one about how it would take 216 runs to get. As time went on I started thinking about possibly having to kill him 222 times like I did with the raven lord. So when I hit the 200s I could feel that the end was near.
Kill 220 came along and I paused, this run felt different. I looted and guess who decided to show up?

Have to say, me and my sister were pretty darn close when it came to guessing when this guy would drop. Glad to have him in the collection. Never going back there again. I really enjoy the color of this guy and all the flickering lightning. The armor is nice too. :3

Also found a blue madexx today. I seems to have clicked with this one. Named him Insanity.

annnnddd I got about 2/3s of the way through ulduar 25 man for the mount. Getting closer!

P.S I know I said I would change my layout! Dx I’m having issues getting things to load properly. >_>

Royi · **Posted:** Sun Jul 15, 2012 1:21 am

wow nuts that it took you 220 runs for that! eep!

Snowy · **Posted:** Sun Jul 15, 2012 6:32 am

Wow, congrats! How on earth do you manage to do all those runs without going insane?!
