Mount Acomplishment Thread

[Astratia]

Wow! I wasn't expecting anything of today, but I got two mounts in under ten minuets!

I logged in and was just outside of ZG, so decided to kill both mount bosses for a shot.
No Panther but....



Awesome!
So onto my winter dailies after a quick hearth back to my Garrison.
After not playing for about 4 days, I noticed I never turned in my dailies from the last time I played.
Well bummer, that's a waste I thought...

So, turned them in and got my present...
and got Grumps!!!

SO I am talking to my brother in law about the moose mount and trying to find a run for it.

"Let me see what I can do.." o_O? ok..."Yea I raid horde now.." O_O

a week later... while on a hunter lowbie for giggles.." So...you up for a moose run in 30 mins?" ...I...yes! "Go park at the instance"
OMFG!!...I log on my main and see a raid invite almost right away "Oh..ok aparently we are killing Archi before going into Mythic today.." O_O Um, how am I paying you for this on another server? "Dont worry, I got ya.."

15 mins later..

I am legit crying....I love my brother in law..

[Snowbird]

[Snowbird]

Ever since i boosted my Pretty Gnome dk called Bitterblue i have not had the energy to get the mats for the Dustmane wolf. When i boosted my dk i had leatherworking and engineering for the mounts so now finally i decided to make the pretty wolf. <3

[Rawr]

So I got 2 mounts today that I'm really happy about

This one Im the most happy about

[Lupen202]

AHHHHHHHHHH


I'll update this later when I actually get the dang thing but I can't even... I'm just so excited.



I have been setting an alarm for 11:30 pst every... single... night... For the past two months ever since I missed this mount the first time due to it being gold capped.... Just so I could get up and check the auctions as soon as they're posted. For this and the zulian tiger, and I know someone else is after the latter.

One down, one to go.

[Snowbird]

Wow thats crazy!! how do u get that much gold if i may ask?? i suck at getting any gold

[Jurz]

I'd like to know how you make that much too! I think the most I've ever had is 100k haha The Zulian Tiger is like my grail mount that I'm destined to never have T.T I soloed that raid ever since it was possible up until they removed it, and even ran it with others before it was soloable and never saw it drop... :'(

[Lupen202]

Well, it's certainly taken me quite awhile - I definitely don't have as easy a time as others - but I get gold in quite a few ways. I don't want to clog this thread with an essay but.. xD

Garrisons have definitely helped. If you get a lvl 3 inn and recruit followers with the treasure hunter trait each week, you can get tons of gold. Some missions award me 600g-4K each with three treasure hunters assigned, not including the rare items like the gronnling or champions honor that I can sell. The shipyard isn't as great but still has potential. You can sometimes get 190-6k gold (the latter being very difficult to get), as well as some profession mats.

I also keep an eye on the Undermine journal for my realm, for cheap items that I can sell for a lot more. For example I bought a star belt pattern for 300g once thanks to the journal, and resold it for 30k+. If you run all cata raids on 25m heroic and vendor everything you can make a couple thousand gold per. I think firelands is the best, it gives me close to 3k per character and if you have multiple alts it adds up. Uhhh... There's also this channel called Mmrrggll gaming that's very useful. Shows a lot of places you can farm for rare items like pets, tmog, recipes etc. like ulduaman.

Also little things here and there... 3-4K from medallions of the legion from Tanaan, 1-3k per WoD rep pet (frostwolf, sethe, etc.), felblight farming, savage blood, crafted gear...

It takes a lot of time - but a lot of it is just waiting for auctions to sell.

[Snowbird]

Thanks for the info hun I hope you get your plauged protodrake!<3

[Lupen202]

eeeee

[Snowbird]

Wow congratz!! thats an beauty mount! me want so bad!

[Rawr]

While fishing for the red and white carps in pandaland, my alt fished up this guy instead

[Snowbird]

So i got a few new mounts lately!.

[Krauth]

So i finally won the Felsteel Anihilator!



After buying the wraith charger with saved up badges of the TBC TW event...


...i had a long long lonnnng week of Timewalk Farming, it took me 4k boss kills in 3 TW events farming 10 hours a day to see the mount!



I also managed to finish the creeping carpet on my tailor alt, a very lucky week indeed!

[Nimrod]

Picked up the Ironbound Wraithcharger after spamming a few Call To Arms last week - but god damn do I hate babysitting group in Pit of Saron, so skipped going any further for the Infinite drake.

Also got the Astral Cloudserpent on my new paladin!

[Boven]

For the past couple weeks, the raid group that I'm in has been working on achievements in HFC. Last night, most of us got our glowy green wolves:

[Nimrod]

So here's some shots of my recent mount acquisitions!

From the previous post last week (or w/e), the Wraithcharger and Astral Cloud Serpent



Also got the Zulian Panther last week!


After not much effort, I got Slabhide to drop the Vitreous Stone Drake:


And about an hour later, Aeonaxx made the mistake of showing up! No more Deepholm!

[s1ncer1ty]

So, a day after licking the Mount Luck Thread for, well, you know... I managed to knock out one of my pre-Legion goals.



Which then led to...



294 mounts, six more to go!

[SpiritBinder]

Gratz s1ncer1ty!!

I know the Blazing/Handmaiden can be the biggest pain to get being right at the end of DS and spine is still dang annoying at the best of times, especially if it's they are the last mount you need to get for the emerald!

Very cool indeed
