Any luck with Jetwing?
Been flying around looking for this one for a bit now-looking for any tips. Have read and studied everything on WowHead and here.

Yup just got him at 47,47.
Was recording video too, but I doubt you need it.

Re: Any luck with Jetwing?
Congrats!
And huh, thanks! Everything I've seen was putting him closer to the Valorwind Lake, so I've been hugging that area really close. Drat,I'm going to have to camp a wider area than I thought. Was he patting any on your find or was he mostly just in that one area?

Re: Any luck with Jetwing?
Ive been flying between Hiri'watha, Quel'danil, Skulk rock and Alter of Zul for the last 3 hours or so. No idea when it was last seen before I got there so im guessing its on a fairly long timer.Talihawk wrote:Anyone know what sort of timer Jetwing is on?

Re: Any luck with Jetwing?
A lot of the old world rares are. If I see it and any of you guys, I'll holler.

Re: Any luck with Jetwing?
Whilst many old world rares are like that, I don't think that is the reason for why you haven't seen it. You have probably been jumping through different shards (the game can force this to happen).

Re: Any luck with Jetwing?
Got him! Was flying the area and checking the Questing Group finder for anyone in Hinterlands off and on-found a nice rogue who was there and asked if they wouldn't mind if I joined them to check on his server-found Jetwing right away.
He was flying (much faster than the alli-freindly gryphons out there) between Valorwind lake and the Altar of Zul.
Good luck hunting guys!

Wow finally caught him at around 5:30ish am on Dalaran, close to the elven city and the lake. Woot!

Donavan-Dalaran tamed Jetwing at 5:13am realm time, so it maybe a 24 hour respawn time.

Re: Any luck with Jetwing?
Was lucky today and was able to tame Jetwing at 4:30am Alleria realm time. Spawns randomly as I had started camping the same area the last tame was in and never saw Jet, but few a round at around 4:25am and he was flying buy the lake. Seems to have a 23 to 24 hour respawn time, as both have been around the 4:20am EST or 2:20am PST time. Used the Concussive shot, dismount, free fall then disengage trick. Goodluck everyone hoping this helps.

Re: Any luck with Jetwing?
I concur that this guy has a super long respawn time, not sure if it's a full 24h but it's definitely the longest of any Feathermane. I camped a long time (going through a lot of Netflix) and eventually found him server hopping early in the morning. At first lots of Hunters were stopping by but they eventually lost interest when it became clear how long the respawn is. Most of the time I was there alone.
Since you can only hop to people in the same zone, I brought one of my low level characters on another realm to Hinterlands and used them to do the hopping through group finder. You'll have to make sure the other character is on a different realm type (PVE, PVP, RP) or else you may just get put in the same server because of CRZ.

Re: Any luck with Jetwing?
It's probably because you're on a RP-PvP server, and that's only going to CRZ with other RP-PVP in your time zone, where a regular PVE or PVP realm can have literally a dozen or more realms on the same instance of the zone (I wouldn't be surprised if every single PVE realm on a particular data center was on the same instance of Hinterlands). Makes the low level zones feel a bit more alive since you still see players all the time, but lots more competition for Hunter pets!

Yup, big reason I love ED. I hate CRZ with a burning passion.Bendak wrote:It's probably because you're on a RP-PvP server, and that's only going to CRZ with other RP-PVP in your time zone, where a regular PVE or PVP realm can have literally a dozen or more realms on the same instance of the zone (I wouldn't be surprised if every single PVE realm on a particular data center was on the same instance of Hinterlands).

Re: Any luck with Jetwing?
After reading this, I feel a little bad I had such an easy time getting Jetwing the other day lol. I just flew to Hinterlands and there he was, waiting to be tamed. I only saw one other Hunter on my way there, but they weren't in Hinterlands. I am on a PvE realm, so not seeing a bunch of Hunters there was surprising.Bendak wrote:I concur that this guy has a super long respawn time, not sure if it's a full 24h but it's definitely the longest of any Feathermane.

I guess getting Jetwing is the games way of trying to make me feel better after camping Snowblind multiple times and not having him spawn after I destroyed the nest xD at least I have one gryphon finally!
