I can't believe the Blazing Drake finally dropped! He was the only one I was missing for the [Awake the Drakes] achievement and I am so happy to add him to my collection! I'm hoping the Handmaiden is going to drop soon so I can be done with Dragon Soul. <_<

So many of us getting Blazing drakes, crazy!

I don't know where my luck came from but I'm in shock... Mount #315!!! And just in time for the gold nerf, so I won't have to touch Firelands ever again. (unless I want that druid toy)

Image

I've now gotten the Pureblood Firehawk, Sea turtle, Blazing drake (+ Emerald drake), Giant Coldsnout and Ji-kun within a month. Granted, I bought Ji-kun but normally the BMAH has junk. Thank you RNG ;-;

After a long time soloing ICC with just my Horde 100 hunter I decided to try the lockout trick so I went in 10 normal on a alt and cleared to Arthas only to defeat him four times and I only got the boring RP as a reward till I went in on my 100 baby Worgen, I call her my baby because she is the first hunter to ever hit 90 the normal way and she also doesn't even have a garrison yet.

Long story short the surprise when I looted and this beautiful mount showed up I know I haven't been farming as long as many but to get the second, first is Onyxia, mount I always wanted is so incredible.

Oh my god I'm shaking

Been running it on so many 100s and leveled more with the invasions yet I still get it on my main, who's been with me since BC. So that's kinda cool :)


Edit:

What is this... I never have this kind of luck... two mounts a day apart? My legion luck is going to be horrid.

Image

317 mounts!!

Mount number 318 :)

Still salty as heck at the severe lack of mounts in Legion (each rep should have at least one :/)

My raid group was doing good, got to 12k eyes in 3 hours...then people got stupid and never let raid bosses spawn...so it slowed to a crawl. But I was determined. 6 hours after I started..

Busy few days for me. Just before Legion I got my Grove Warden. Then I picked up the Bloodfang Widow last week after the Mad Merchant spawned and robbed me of most of my gold. Knocked out the last two 10 & 25 ICC achievements I needed to get both Frostbrood mounts the day before yesterday (something I never got around to). Today I knocked out Dragonsoul to get my Blazing Drake and also get the Emerald Drake, and just now I got Invincible's Reigns. :D Up to 272 mounts and looking to finish off Ulduar (another set I just never got around to, just need to roast some dwarves).

So the past two and a half weeks I've managed to cross off seven mounts. :headbang:

Finally was able to make the LW mount the other day :) I love it though I do wish the run speed was the same as the grove warden. Currently it has the Draenor mount syndrome. Super fast animation. Also bummed we don't have a black moose available as that colors really gorgeous.

I'M SORRY FOR THE DOUBLE POST AND CAPS BUT I'M SHAKING

What the crystals look like:

Image

Would not have been possible at all without the amazing discord I'm a part of. These people are the ones that worked together to discover the Kosumoth riddle and hippogryph to begin with, and despite two of them not having the mount themselves they helped me hunt down the last 4 crystals I needed as maintenance ticked closer and closer. Time was running out and I would not have been able to find all 5 without help, especially since 4 of them were in previously unknown locations. Really shocked right now... and so happy... and I hope these amazing people get theirs soon too :(

The crazy part though is that I had gone to bed early and set my alarm for 3:00 am just in case when the servers came back up, it was up like Voidtalon often was. But I woke up two hours before the alarm and just decided to get up and play a bit before the servers went down... and lo and behold...

congrats!! wow those crystals are huge!! really wish spawn points weren't randomn, essentially it spawns almost everywhere lol but havent heard of anyone on US servers getting the mount so I dont think maintenance matters.

thank you :)

And Im US. There have been quite a few US spawns actually, but not since maintenance. First ever reported US spawn was early Friday, then a few more early this morning before the servers went down. Which fits a roughly 48 hour spawn time.

My server personally had two spawns in a one week period. First was Friday at noon, second was Tuesday at 1:30 am which is the one I got.

WohOOOOOooo! a MASSIVE congratulations Lupen, thats seriously so very very cool.
And to any one whom says "omg so lucky!" let it be said, that actually "Diligence is the mother of good luck.", and your work paid off. (As quoted by Benjamin Franklin) :)

Congrats again, and as I'm sure many others are, I'm very envious :mrgreen:

Finished the last of my order hall missions for this guy today and I couldn't be happier! He's just so cute!

Image

This was one of my top favorite mounts out of Legion (the second place being the pvp courser mounts), so I'm just so happy with the result!

Also grats Lupen! I tried to go for that one, but I couldn't find any of the crystals yet lol

SQUID MOUNT! I kind of wish that it could fly... Kind of like an Old God-style faceless mount, but hey, still very very happy with it. Absolutely love the looks of this thing.

Admittedly, I didn't get it to drop. But I couldn't restrain myself when it showed up on my realm's BMAH tonight, and after getting competitive in a bidding war I ended up spending 1.5m. It's more than I had wanted to spend, as I've been saving up for the zulian tiger.. but I figured by the time the tiger actually shows up I'd be able to make some of it back.

That makes 322 :) next week, I'll hopefully get my squid! US has had the pet two weeks in a row now...

For a few shining moments, I thought I'd never have to go back to ICC again. Then I remembered the new pets in 7.1.
