Crossrealm rare taming an issue?

Unread post by Fen »

Now that some servers including mine(Turalyon) have crossrealm communitys in certain areas doe's it pose a problem taming rares?

Is it going to make it easier or harder???? with crossrealm does that mean we get more than one chance to tame something that may otherwise take 15+ hrs to spawn(will it spawn more often?)

Or are we going to have the same spawn time on one rare and home that were first of many to catch it at the right time???

Blizzard has said that they have made rares spawn more often to compensate.

Unsure, since the change only applies to "most" of them - it wasn't specified which ones weren't changed.

I heard about the rare times being adjusted last night, but I can't find the blue post that it was talked about in...

Anyone have a link?

I need more hunters, IMO.

I don't remember where exactly, I want to say that Ghostcrawler mentioned it in the Wowcrendor interview.

What concerns me is when NPCscan goes off for a rare and the rare is phased out after I land for a flight. And yes, we've tested it to make sure no one killed it, etc.

Isn't the phasing only in areas that use phasing like Hyjal? I found a spirit beast and called two hunters there, but neither could see the cat that was right in front of me(I couldn't see them, either). I thought it was just a questline thing, not a cross server problem!

Phasing issues like that, yes - usually. Unless they'd done the quests, but you weren't partied and were somehow on different servers, then chances are, it was a normal phasing issue.
