Mount Acomplishment Thread

[Golden]

Don't tell Sonnie...

But my Hawkstrider dropped! *happy dance* After 32 kills.

[Lupis]

Yup, I'm a Worgen. ^.^ That mount is my new love. Now I just need the Raven Lord to go along. xD

Grats, Golden!

[Royi]

Grats on the Primal Nether!

(in b4 Azu uses that stupid line!)

[SpiritBinder]

I can finally put Storm Peaks to rest, last night I was finally able to put my hunt for the tlpd to an end.
Its was a blurry 4:04am when he spawned but I'm just glad the camp is over.... now for Aeonaxx

142 and counting....

[Vetiver]

142?!?! aughhh i'm so jealous!

i just hit hit 125 last night after becoming exalted with my guild and buying the dark phoenix and sambas mount. still a lot of work to go!

[Cerah]

Not a rare mount, but still a great accomplishment, IMO. I finally got my Violet Protodrake!




I love this drake! She's so pretty -- purple's my favourite colour.

I also had enough Honour Points to get the Red Skeletal Warhorse, the last Classic pvp mount I needed. These two mounts bring my count up to 96! Only 4 more to go now!

Grats! Have you gotten all 4 AQ bugs?

[Cerah]

I have the Yellow, Green and Blue ones. The Red still eludes me.

I'm thinking of just grinding AT badges and doing dungeon runs for the last four -- unless a new way to collect mounts comes out in 4.2.

[Miraga]

yay! :3

The Red one I found to be pretty easy to grind. Simply put, its about a 1% chance of any drop. There are 11 mobs before the first boss. Simply join a raid with a friend doing something else, go inside, clear up to first boss. Then run outside and hit "reset all instances" and then all the beginning trash will respawn. Takes maybe 5 minutes or so to do, and in theory you should have to do this about 10 times. I think I got my Red one on the 4th or 5th run, maybe 30 minutes.

Every mount helps when going for 100. What sucks most is once I got 100, I realized that I dont even care for that Red Dragonhawk. Oh well, fun drive for the acheivement at least.

[cowmuflage]

Thats true every mount does help. My 100th on Cow was the yellow AQ40 bug lol have like 114 now and am kind of angry theres no new ahcieves now >:(

[Sherbe]

Yay! Today I finally got Raven Lord, well over 50 times killing Anzu. I'm so happy, I'm actually more into WoW now. It is such a gorgeous mount, really!

[Magnakilro]

I am now the proud owner of the Subdued Seahorse mount ((the Poseidus one)). XD

I love the colors on him ^_^ My Sea Turtle is happy to finally take a break.

[Golden]

OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG!



50 hours of camping and he's finally MINE! <3

[Valrose]

Wow, congratulations Golden!

[Agravaine]

I'm still stunned at how random it was... well, my b-day's 3 days away, so maybe not so random... I take the portal to deepholm and head to Therazane to grab the dailies when I spot a stone drake. "That's no stone drake..."

Hmm, pic sequence is backwards...

Note: You need to be facing front to hit him. Pretty much a straightforward burn 'im down fight.

[Vasken]

Seven months of pain, agony, determination, repair bills up to my armpits and a zillion ICC25 runs...



Fffffffffffffffff. Was absolutely dying for his mount for so long! Ironically, "Been Waiting a Long Time For This" was the last achievement needed and took two months to grab!

And someone else dropped, too!



No more Sethekk, ffff.

[Shlee]

I flew into TLPD today.

When I say flew into here I really do mean I near enough collided with his face.
Was heading to my usual camp-spot up on ze' cliffs when all of a sudden I hear this BADUMBADUMBADUMBADUMBADTISH!. For a second I'm just 8U-ing at the screen and then WAIT, WHAT. THERE'S A GOLDEN TOFFEE DRAGON- FRRRFFHHRRR MARMALADE DRAKE HAS APPEARED!
Dragged him down to Bor's Falls and popped so many arcane shots into him I don't think he could have seen straight.

... Then flew home via turtle-rides and zeplins with Vasken's druid for company!


Hur. Posing in Sen'jin.


Have decided to name him 'Captain Shinysides Bluegum Vollatus Vinegar Marmalade-Dragon Esquire'. Or Volly. Volly works too.
Vasken. Please teach me how to make screenies look as awesome as you make them look. o3o

[Vasken]

Beb deserved that drake so much, fff. IT'S SO PHWOAH.

Vasken. Please teach me how to make screenies look as awesome as you make them look. o3o

They don't look awesome... I butcher them D8 It takes all of one minute fosrs.

Step 1: Grab 'dat blur tool. BLUR 'DAT BACKGROUND.



Step 2: Abuse 'dat DODGE 'N' BURN TOOL for additional contrast.



Step 3: Layer Adjustment -> Gradient map. PICKED A CRAZY PURPLE/YELLOW GRADIENT AN' LOWERED 'ZEE OPACITY.



Step 4: Scribbled on top of the drake on a seperate layer, blurr'd it and then changed the layer setting to colour dodge. Used Diffuse Glow to add WHITE SHININESS.



Step 5: SHAAARRRRPEEEEEEEN. Shlee turned out fuzzy tho'.



One minute!

[Ara]

Finaly got exalted with the guild last night, and could buy the Dark Phoenix from the guild vendor. <3
Glad they are fixing the graphics in the next patch, cos right now it´s painfull to look at it if you target youself or someone else who´s riding it. o.o
