At long last!!! (Successful Madexx tame!)

Unread post by Rhyela »

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!!

I finally got him!!! I couldn't have done it without the help of Blooddsurge (who initially let me know the last two times he had spawned, so we were able to narrow it down), and to Phyra, who lent another pair of eyes to our search and provided more spawn times to go off of. He had been killed at 8:49 p.m. Friday night, then last night at 8:10 p.m., just 40 minutes before I got home. So, I checked the area after 6 hours (2:00 a.m. this morning) and he wasn't there, then again at 12 hours (8:00 a.m.), and he wasn't there, then again at 24 hours...and at 8:26 p.m., he popped up right in front of me as I was flying past his most northwestern spawn point. I freaked out. I'm surprised I managed to do it as smoothly as I did, but I quickly tagged him with an arcane shot, laid a frost trap at my feet, and pressed tame. I swear that tame bar took about 10 minutes to go down, the entire time I'm paranoid thinking someone would yoink it...but finally, he was mine! He spawned in brown which was my second favorite color, so I can say I'm very pleased. Green was my first choice, but brown (bronze/gold) was a very close second. Plus he has green details on the tail and mouth, so that's good enough. :D Honestly, I'm just ecstatic that I finally saw him, let alone tamed him! Wow, I haven't felt that shaky, nervous, jittery and like a complete fool since King Krush. Yay! I have named him Vulkoor which is a D&D reference, the Drow scorpion god. I wanted something masculine and powerful, and that just seemed to fit. :3

So without further ado, meet Vulkoor!!! (Crap, just realized I didn't take any screenshots at all of his mob size, I was so nervous and excited!) You can see Blooddsurge's Terrorpene in one of the shots, and Phyra's Sambas in a couple others. :) Such handsome creatures. :3

Thanks guys!!! I'm so stinkin' happy! That was a heck of a camp, though. I think I'm going to take a "break" now by doing some dungeons and leveling professions before I even think about looking for Karoma and/or Sambas. ;)

Good luck, Blooddsurge and Phyra! Seeing as how the past three spawns at least were brown, hopefully he'll show some of his other colors for you guys. And to the other fellow hunter I was yapping to (don't want to reveal your name w/o your consent), if you are reading this, may you also have luck! :)

I took another cute screen shot of him in Stormwind. :3 Can't help meself. If it wasn't night-time, it would look better. Vulkoor says, "Hi!" :D

It was our loving messages and offers of meat Rhy! I just got my Sambas :D:D:D:D

I'd been camping mostly in one spot, flying around every now and again. Two horde hunters came over and sat next to me, so I huffed and decided to do a fly around. And there he was, waiting for me. Gotten a friend on horde to pass a message to both of them saying thanks for making me move.

That made me lol, that's great! Glad you got Sambas! I'm thinking he may be my next, but we'll see. :)

Regarding spawn times...

For about 4-5 days in a row Madexx was spawning anywhere between 9:30pm and 11:30pm server time... then yesterday for some odd reason he spawned at 5pm server... then today at 2pm server... (Guildie tamed him at 5pm yesterday and then another hunter nabbed him at 2pm today... and I was barely missing him the other days between 9-11pm)

He was pretty consistent up to two days ago... any clue of what might have happened? At this rate I won't be getting him til I accidently stumble across him.

If he really does have a concrete 22-24hr spawn time then great... I can at least know when to look (when I am not at work or asleep at those times), but I hate having to either hover over a few spawns or do circles again... I am so burned out of doing that thanks to King Krush and Aotona.

BTW, Madexx... I am pretty upset with you, and I have a feeling that the Blizzard gods are laughing at me and they'll let me tame you one day, but at a cost of getting the only color I do not want... :|

I need more hunters, IMO.
