Green Madexx: The long and still fruitless search HAS ENDED!

Unread post by Samskeyti »

Hello all.
I have been bitten by the Madexx bug, like many of you, and after I managed to get my very first one, a red one which I named Antares, and after seeing all the pictures and screenshots, I decided I had to have green Madexx!
So I started a a hunt that lasted for the past 5 days.

Here's what I found:

10.1. 16:34 Madexx (red) My first one that I tamed.

26.1. 03:28 Madexx (bronze) My friend was still up herbing, and decided before heading off to bed, to do a last check for me and found bronze. he rang me up to let me know, and I logged back on, tamed and named him Oros, after "or" which means golden, and Oros who is one of the MtG dragons.

27.1 14:00 Madexx (red) A random round netted another red scorpion. A guildie came to get him.

27.1. 22:00 Madexx (bronze) This one I whispered a random hunter who came and tamed it, and we now chat quite regularly about the rares we're after. It's nice to meet new people via rares :-)

28.1. 16:50 Madexx (black) This poor scorpion got attacked just as I swooped down to tame. I wasn't very professional in explaining that I wanted the draenei to stop attacking him. He died, and she said she didn't realize that I wanted him for taming. She was sincerely sorry, but I felt sad since it was the first black I ever saw.

29.1. 19:34 Madexx (red) Again! Another guildie grabbed him.

30.1. 06:41 Madexx (red) Now I was getting tired of it! At such an antisocial time, I only found the server's top huntress in levelrange and not busy, and her exclamation when she saw him coming out of the freezing trap was "Damn he's pretty!" It felt good to have rehomed yet another Madexx. I thought, surely now Karma has to come back.

30.1. 20:40 Madexx (blue) After a long afternoon of camping, I had enough. I logged off, had dinner, did this and that... Logged on later, thought, well, just one round, and blue Madexx was there! I swept down and tamed him. I called him Starlight, but it might only be a temporary name.


So now, I still haven't found my green Madexx. I'm tired of camping, when I come across him by luck, but it might just have been the Karma adding up :-)
I'll keep looking though. I know I'll only be camping Aeonaxx on my druid instead, if not this pretty creature. I'm terrible that way :-) But reading the forums, I'm not the only one for sure :-)

I haven't gotten many screenshots, but here's deathwing, who I saw on two consecutive days, once in the Twilight Highlands and Uldum, and the next morning again in Uldum. he was something I didn't think I'd get to see, so it was a pleasant, although somewhat deadly change of scenery.

Aww hell pop for you! Your getting pretty consistent respawn times.. I mean your seeing one Madexx a day atleast which is pretty impressive for Madexx anyways. He likes to hide from me, though he was nice enough to pop up in blue today for me ^.^

Just keep on looking and hell surprise you. I think I had to threaten everything in existence before he popped in a color I wanted and didnt already have. Saw 3 black, 2 red, 1 green corpse, 2 brown and 1 blue over a period of 3 weeks so you are getting pretty lucky.

I loved your deathwing shot by the way.. I was in uldum when he hit me too though sadly tabbed out, came back to find fire and my corpse. Then I just missed him today but I did finally get to see the beautiful sky for once. I enjoy deathwing flying about cause its fun until I saw he killed the king and his poor Sambas :(

Grats on your Madexxes! Green *seems* to appear more frequently than say....blue or black. I do find it odd that you've seen so many reds, though. I know of someone who tamed a red Madexx on my server, but that's the only one. I've never actually seen it in person.

Good luck on green!!!

I wish you all lots of luck getting your madexx colors. He seems to be picky sometimes on what suit he wears. But he is a stylish bug! I'd keep the red and blue ones, though ... black has a strange classic rock kind of appeal.

Update:

I lost track of Madexx and didn't see him for a whole day.
Yesterday afternoon I missed a bronze spawn by minutes and only found the body. But I didn't mind, at least I had a timer, and most of all, it wasn't green!

02.02 18:10 Madexx (bronze) killed by questing paladin
03.02 05:55 Madexx (bronze) rehomed to hunter. It took a while to get anyone interested in poor bronze Madexx.
03.02 13:29 Madexx (bronze) rehomed to hunter. "You're right, he's not very pretty" Poor unloved thing.

Image

Still looking for green.... why oh why green Madexx have you picked my interest!

Because that's how Madexx rolls. :( He's such a tease. Poor unloved Bronze madexx. Caramel is sympathetic.

Right, another few days have passed, another few hunters have been walking away with Madexx... but green is still eluding me!!

I'm now at a point where I don't give up anymore till I have found him. He's bound to turn up at some point.

So here's a few more dates and times, in case they help anyone:

04.02 19:11 Madexx (blue) I can't confirm this one, but as I was coming back from a break and doing a round, npcscan went off and I saw a blood elf huntress happily running away with an unnamed lvl 84 blue scorpion pet. I just assumed that she just tamed it.

05.02 04:20 Madexx (bronze) rehomed to hunter
05.02 16:25 Madexx(bronze) rehomed to hunter

I do need a lucky charm :-)

It seems that when I post in someone's thread about how long I have been looking for a green Madexx not too long afterwards the original poster of the thread gets a green Madexx while I get to keep searching for mine.

Day #49 for me. (a.k.a. 7 weeks)

Good luck.

I need more hunters, IMO.

And I think Pent is the lucky charm that brought me my green Madexx.

Good luck.
I gave up looking last night since weekends are more busy with people questing, so I thought why even bother. This morning I casually checked around for two hours, but no madexx. I didn't have a spawn timer, so I decided to spend the afternoon like my previous ones, draw on one desk, while circling for Madexx every now and then.
I logged in (the guild sees that I'm in Uldum again and gives up hope for any heroic or participation on my part for the next hours. Poor guild, I have been very antisocial the past days.)
I fly a circle, and npcscan goes off: green Madexx! But I couldn't find him! I pressed his little image to target, and he didn't show up! So I thought, it's probably just a hunter who got him last night when I decided to leave it be. I really gave up all hope, and flew a bit in a circle around the area where npcscan had go off, to maybe find the hunter. And suddenly, a wild Madexx appeared in the sand! I shot a scatter shot at him, clicked on potion of speed and tame beast, and then he was mine, and this long long camp suddenly found an end! I'm filled with adrenaline!
Here's some screenies. I don't have any from the wild Madexx or the tame. And now I shall proceed finding a name. :-)


06.02 12:49 Madexx (green) tamed!!!

Waiting for the adrenaline rush to ease off :-)

Thank you everyone, and good luck to all who are seeking Madexx, in whichever colour!
