All is quiet in Sholazar Basin....A little too quiet.

[Harleen]

I've noticed something a little strange while flying around for a little over 12 hours now in a complete circle in Sholazar Basin, that it's really odd that none of the rares have shown up. I've been trying to find Loque'nahak since she was the only Northrend spirit beast I didn't have and I've been trying to get her on my hunter for over a year and some change. Seems like when I tend to pick a day to focus all of my attention to find Loque (even back in WOTLK) I had no success at finding her, yet my boomkin has killed her on numerous occasions. (Hmm. I guess that could be why. ) but I seriously haven't gone to do any dungeons or farm or sit in a spot to camp or even gone to eat. Even as I write this I'm in window mode in auto flight. And I haven't seen any rares at all. Npc scan hasn't detected any corpses. And there hasn't been any other horde hunters. And I've only seen one Alliance Hunter that I've seen around and he's not a threat cause I shot him. But is anyone else having a problem today in the Basin? Like it's one thing to not see a particular rare for several hours, but not to see all 3 in *looks at the clock* 13 hours...I mean come on.
P.S. I apologize for the lengthy post. I blame that on the delirium.

If there's already three other rares up in Northrend, no more will spawn. All the others will be put on a que, until one of them is killed. So, I'd suggest you get a group of friends to sweep through Northrend for Achievement rares, and see if one of the tamable ones become available. I think the timer is on 30 minutes of the last rare killed or so, for a new one to appear (I could be shooting way off here with the timer).

Same on my server, i nearly had to kill all the rares myself in order to make new ones spawn.
Really is a ghostworld in Northrend nowadays.

Yeah, and it's kind of hard to get help when your friends are either too busy doing heroics or questing haha. But I do have some great news. I don't know if someone read this and started killing rares on my server or what. But I tamed King Krush at exactly 3:05pm (right after my post) and Loque'nahak at exactly 3:30pm (both Frostwolf server times on 12/30/10) and I'm still dancing with her. Seriously I'm so happy and it's been over a year and half long stubborn battle between the two of us. Haha. Hope the taming times help the people on the Frostwolf-US server as well.

Now I can go eat a quesadilla!!!

[Victorelle]

yea I was going to go out and kill Northrend rares so the others will pop up

Yeah I had a luck streak getting Skoll and Arcturius out there then saw nothing for awhile then finally King Krush showed up in Sholazar and he's the first rare I've ever seen pop up there in the entire time I've played. I'm hoping to find Loq soon though.
