I finally got one of the mounts the other day - I can't wait to be able to tame one and have a matching set! I love these scruffy bird dinos so much. This is awesome!

I gotta ask a mount-related question...
the snowfeather battlepet questline requires that you fiinsh 3 PvP world dailies.
are there any PvP world dailies that DON'T require any real PvP? I absolutely loathe PvP and if I'm forced to do it I will simply quit.

All the warden tower ones aren't real PvP. It's highly, highly unlikely you'll encounter a player of the opposite faction. It's just like PvE but you're flagged.

This!

The warden towers are just populated by enemy NPCs, and all you have to do is kill them. The towers aren't hubs or anything for players, so unless someone's extremely bored you're probably not going to encounter any of the opposing faction there. I do them routinely and so far I've never experienced any PvP during them, just lots of my own faction grouping up to kill the NPCs more quickly.

Unless your on a PvP server, then people like to keep you from completing the quests, well until they get stomped on a few times atleast. :lol: :mrgreen:

I was finally able to get all three PvP quests done. unfortunately I was not one of the lucky ones whose quest auto-completed after the first PvP quest.

The first one I tried was absolute hell, the Murlock one on the coast of... Azuna? I think?
There was an Alliance trio who decided to camp me. Dying every minute was really getting annoying. I was finally able to finish the quest by sticking VERY close to the outside of the zone.

Then I did two towers, one solo, and one with a random DK who happened to be around. Those just flew by like nothing.

And for some reason, the next quest for my little Snowfeather (buy him a back pack), immediately popped. I thought I'd have to wait another day to do it.

Sadly, now I have a dungeon, and a raid quest to look forward to, blech.

So when can I tame a mommy and a daddy for my widdle Snowfeather? I am SO dying to get the family together.

If you just have one 110, it'll take a couple of weeks.

To finish the entire questline. it is a bit lengthy. Involves raids, dungeons, pvp, pet battles, etc.

Oof, yeah. I highly recommend avoiding the "special" PvP world quests if your goal is purely to finish the falcosaur questlines and focusing on the warden tower ones. The "special" ones are FFA, which means that both factions are interested in being there, and your own faction is as likely to attack and kill you as the opposite faction is. Operation: Murloc Freedom is the worst of the three I've done (I've never done the Black Rook Rumble) because it takes SO LONG to get finished, the mobs are mostly in the same areas and take forever to respawn, and there's no real "safe" area. There's no safe spot in Bareback Brawl either, but the area has a lot of... well, area, so it's plausible (sometimes) to find an area to kill mobs for progress away from other people. There's a "safe" zone in the underground brawling cavern one in Highmountain whose name I've forgotten, that as a hunter I can dip into if someone hostile comes by; makes it take longer but gets it done without having to deal with people who think it's hilarious that a mythic-geared hunter can't/won't fight back.

The Warden Towers, on the other hand, are only worth going to as the faction that currently controls it if it's in the way between the nearest flight path and some other objective (Hafr Fjall or w/e in Stormheim's the only place this comes up), if there's an herb spawned there, or if it was the first few weeks of Legion and archaeology digsites in those areas were turned on for some bizarre reason I still can't fathom (but which I haven't seen happen since that very first archaeology quest week in Stormheim).

Well, or if you see in LocalDefense that someone's doing their world quest and you're the type of person to try and get some "free" "honor" from a carebear just trying to get their emissaries done, but even on the hellscape that is Broken Isles CRZ I don't run into that one very frequently. Might be more common on PvE servers, since that'll typically be the only areas those kind of people CAN get their jollies in, I dunno.

wait, which quest do you mean? the one to tame the Falcosaurs?
or the one for the Snowfeather battle pet / mount?

yes, this I already knew. I just finished the PvP part today.



Ok, so Falcosaurs are supposed to be tamable as of patch 7.1? I thought that patch was already out.

Weird. Sorry about that but I can't fix that page until tomorrow. I don't have all my tools where I'm staying currently. Thanks for bringing it to my attention anyway :)

There was actually an error on the Petopia website. it clearly said new tamable looks for 7.1, but since Wain is aware of it now, it will get corrected. I was just confused by this. I often check Petopia to see what I might be missing out on in new pets.
