Oh how could I forget my old friend, Cinderface

Image

Also the center area where the celestials are changed a wee bit. Instead of each celestial occupying a corner, now one is in the center facing the entrance. On a pedestal on the edge behind him is Emperor Shaohao. I don't know if Jade Serpent is always in the center or if it rotates or what but this is how it is now...

*ponders the fun that could be had with a tamed pirate ship pet*

Those Monstrous Spineclaws are really lovely. A nice burgundy kind of colour. Are they all still 91?

The Molten Guardian, Dread Ship Vazuvius, and the other mislabeled things as beasts hey do not draw to much attention because they may be like the Hydra and tameable in the next expansion when the level cap goes up and made unique and untameable like the grub worms, hydra, and ooze. And Tsavo'ka <Ghost in the Darkness> needs to be a sha corrupted cat skin that since its rare, allow it to keep the sha aura after taming :-D.

We don't do that here. Anything dubious is reported. If they decide to leave it then well and good.

From what I can tell, of all the mob types on the island (turtles, cranes, yak, pythons, spirits, sharks, crabs, sprites, yaungol, elementals, tigers, cloud serpents, silkworm, frog, cliffwalkers, one eyed swamp beasts, pirateship), turtles remain the only type that does not have a rare yet. Everything else has a rare represented. My foolish heart thinks that would be a great opportunity for the tortos skin to be tameable. If someone knows I missed a mob type, please let me know.

Anyways, more screenshots..

I found the rare cranes again, they spawn in different locations than were I found the original.

This guy is found sitting around the celestial arena looking on. The whole schtick about the edge of the arena is it has NPCs from all over Pandaria that you have met in quests etc. However I don't remember the Monkey King. Maybe a Jade Forest quest I forgot about /shrug

Image

More rares!

Am I the only who thinks Blizzard is getting a little over zealous with rares and elites these days?? I mean it's cool and all but most parts of Pandaria have multiple rares and common mobs have the elite dragons around their names.

I don't think they are. I mean I remember back in the day there being whole parts of some zones that only had elites in them.

The abundance of rares is definitely a new approach to the system. I prefer it, but then again I like collecting all the neat little knick knacks they can drop.

Well his best friend is the last Emperor, so we have all the coolest Legends on our side :D

Note: just joking around. My hunter is Horde and my shammy Alliance, so I see both sides of the Lore. It's really worthwhile :)

I wanted to make a joke about faction favoritism with the Monkey King but I didn't want to ignite a fire and derail my own thread lol -_-

Regarding all the rares... two thoughts (or perhaps three)

Since the idea for the isle is to be one of discovery, we're going to be fighting these rares a LOT. IoTK on steroids. They'll likely be key to getting the coins to upgrade the Legendary cloaks. Good thing I've been practicing on Warbringers...

Blizz had noted that they were pleasantly surprised at the response to the IoTK rares, so we are getting that + barrens together in one place.

The thing I really like about it is that you won't really be tied to daily quests/events, if you want to do a week's worth in one day, you can.

The fact that there are so many rares there will make it truly a place of discovery.
You never know which ones are up. You never know which ones you'll meet. You never know if that path is safe to follow, or will you be jumped by that rare that spawns behind that bush.
