I'm very arachnophobic... (Kirix)

So when I learned that five of the new rares were spiders, I breathed a huge sigh of relief. That means five pets I do not need to camp. That could add up to days, even weeks worth of spared sanity! Spiders freak me out, even in WoW. The first time I ever tanked Azjol-Nerub on my druid, I didn't kno...

Re: A tale of 7 Magrias (Update: And 1 Ankha! <3)

Thanks! Yay for feral kitty cats. :D Magria and Ankha share that spawn point at the base of the hill to the Firelands portal, right near the yellow tree. I know this because I watched Magria spawn there 7 times before Ankha finally decided to grace me with her presence! They may also have another sp...

Re: A tale of 7 Magrias

So yesterday I "gave up." After another mostly-sleepless night, and then an all-morning camp, my fiance wanted to get some lunch together. I left the computer for an hour, and Ankha spawned while I was gone. I was feeling pretty crushed. After about 65 hours of camping, to miss her twice b...

Re: Giving up hope... Time-Lost Kitty.

HUGS! I super understand what you're going through. I've spent about 65 total hours camping since the patch dropped--this has yielded me SEVEN Magrias. I tamed one and found excited hunter friends and strangers to tame the other six. All I want is Ankha, but she's only spawned for me while on a 5 mi...

A tale of 7 Magrias (Update: And 1 Ankha! <3)

I've now found homes for SEVEN Magrias on my server in my long, arduous, desperate camping of Ankha. Really? What are the odds? Every Horde hunter on Malfurion that I know is now the proud owner of a Magria that I found, and so are a couple of random strangers, since I ran out of hunter friends to c...

Re: Obligatory "Where are you, rare pets?" Magic Luck Thread

Dear Magic Luck Thread, I've been a very nice hunter this year. I've camped rares for friends. I've been polite and friendly to all whom I meet on my taming adventures. I've now spotted and re-homed three Magrias, plus my own. Ankha is the kitty I truly desire, my favorite of all the new pets, and p...

Re: Magria/Ankha .. do they alternate, or is it totally rand

Well, I'm pretty sure that Fate is mocking me for posting this question. I have now found 4 (edit: 5) wild Magrias, back-to-back--one for me, and one for each of my three bestest hunter friends. =/ (edit: and one stranger hunter, since I ran out of friends to tame her and nobody was camping the area...

Re: Magria/Ankha .. do they alternate, or is it totally rand

Thank you all for the helpful info. :) The hunt goes on. 13 hours since last spawn and still no sign of her. Good luck to all you guys who are looking, may the right kitty spawn at the right place and right time!

Thanks, and good luck to you as well! I would invite anyone with any info/"research" that might shed some light on this question to post here, then. On Malfurion, Magria spawned first at 8:40 pm server, then Ankha was next 14 hours later (I'm about 95% sure I did not miss a spawn based on ...

Magria/Ankha .. do they alternate, or is it totally random?

I'm so sorry if this has been answered somewhere else, but I looked through the other spawn info threads and such and didn't see this particular question addressed... Do Magria and Ankha tend to alternate spawns.. Mag/Ank/Mag/Ank etc... or is it totally random, you could get 5 Mags and then 7 Anks i...

NPC IDs for NPCScan - Pogeyan and other new rares?

Does anybody know the NPC ID number so I can add Pogeyan to my NPCScan? She does not appear to be added to wowhead yet. And to make this thread a bit more useful to others, although Pogeyan is the only one I'm personally after... anybody happen to know NPC IDs for the other new rares, too? Thanks mu...

Re: How do you choose?

Congrats on your tames. :) I just rotate them. Usually I'll visit the stable every couple days and swap them in/out. Sometimes I'll assign a certain pet to a specific dungeon, though... for example, I like to use Sambas in Lost City of Tol'vir and Ghostcrawler in Throne of the Tides, cause they matc...

Re: Like hell you can solo Skeram.

I soloed him last night with my Spirit Beast. The first couple attempts were rocky, because I didn't have the positioning quite right. Here's what worked: I stood at MAX RANGE to use the "Move To" command to send my pet to the base of the stairs leading up to Skeram. Pet runs to base of st...

Re: New Pets in Uldum on PTR

I'd be happy as punch if every rare in the game had its own unique skin. I'd also be delighted if, as someone suggested, all the rares had short (30 min-1 hr?) spawn timers, to make them much more easily accessible to any hunter that wanted them. Why?! That would defeat the purpose of a rare spawn ...

Re: New Pets in Uldum on PTR

It's not as if Blizzard made Salhet's lions or whatever tamable and left Sambas as rare. This is exactly what I'm afraid of, TBH. They did it to Humar. And now to Madexx (yes, I know, color-changer.. but it's still gonna look exactly like Madexx when you summon it). I'm just bothered by the whole i...

Re: New Pets in Uldum on PTR

Yeah, I really wish Blizz wouldn't take rare, unique skins and put them on common mobs. This has nothing to do with Madexx specifically. At the very least, make the new common mob a different color. I hurt for the people who spent hours upon hours of their lives camping for a rare pet with a special...

Re: Ghostcrawler too easy?

I think it all depends on your server, the size of its population and how many other Hunters are after the mob. GC wasn't easy for me at all. He took days of camping, swimming in circles around the reef, including a near-miss where I spotted him just as another Hunter finished taming. I got lucky an...
