Neith's Mount Journal

[Neith]

Well I've been looking for him for a while, probably since I hit 85 the day after Cataclysm came out, and decided that since I finally got my gray camel I would look for him again. Last night I went afk in Deepholm to read a book, and came back to discover that mere seconds ago he had popped under me and someone had gotten him. I figured it out because unengaged and engaged both popped on npcscan. It was kind of a downer I am still kicking myself over it, that I lost him because I was reading a book, I should have had headphones on so I could listen to npcscan instead of hoping I'd catch it on the monitor, now I have learned my lesson, but I don't know when I will see him again. *forlorn sigh* I will keep it up, though. This feels a bit like when I found TLPD's corpse a few weeks ago.

Also, does anyone else keep thinking Aeonaxx is a girl?

[meepitco]

I'll camp alongside you for TLPD...if you'd like, but nonetheless, good luck

[Echo]

Good Luck Neith!! I hope you find both very soon!..and not to worry that Aeonaxx wasn't yours he was full of fleas!

You'll get the next one, hang in there!!

[Sasrei]

GL on your hunt, youll see him again

I also think its a girl and since really the mount that drops looks nothing like Aeonaxx unlike TLPD who looks like.. TLPD I think it just may be their baby or something ^.^

[Neith]

I saw bloodseeker a few days ago which has ramped up my time I've spent out here in Deephom, and while I haven't found Aeonaxx yet, I did get my first in-game harassment by someone accusing me of "fishbotting" whatever that means? Is that like some fancy word for botting? They told me they 'knew what i was doing' and would report me until they saw me banned and I am left kind of confused like eh??? o_O I don't even know HOW people bot. I've reported what feels like a hundred different actual botters and exploiters and hacked accounts during the time I was in Uldum hunting camels, and I am just baffled. One guildie told me I should just ignore it and put the guy on /ignore but my boyfriend told me I should report it as harassment and in-game threats so I've done both and I'm not sure really how else to react to that. It's a little upsetting I guess because I have always been a painfully honest person, I am not the kind of person who cheats at anything ever in my life.

[Kalliope]

Aeonaxx isn't a girl. Aeosera, the stone dragon BROODMOTHER, is his mate.

Well, technically, he's her mate. Like Harkoa and Loque.

[Neith]

I decided to give myself a break for a while tonight, I wound up with THREE horde guys stacking on me in my spot, the one I've been squatting out of all the Aeonaxx spawn spots, I have my one spot that I've never changed, in all the months I've squatted out here. I have a lvl 1 horde guy to talk to certain guys I know on the other faction, but I have a feeling if I ask these guys why they are stacking they will just go "Lolz find another spot lolollol". :-/ Stacking is so rude.

No horse for me this year (for halloween holiday boss).

[Neith]

Wow, my hunting is over and now I have nothing to camp. It's a strange feeling of elation and disappointment. I'm so used to just sitting out in Deepholm and alt tabbing to do other stuff while I listen hopefully for the claxon of NPCscan going off. I'm happy but now I'm not sure what to do with myself. I love my new purple dragon mount, but I'm not used to having nothing to camp... *facepalm*

[Nili]

:O Congratulations!
Yeeey pretty purple drake ftw

[Samskeyti]

Yay!!!! Congrats!! Was it at NE1? I like how you just tested npcscan on you before and then it goes off with Aeonaxx

[Neith]

Thank you! Yes, she (or he?) spawned at the north eastern most corner, NE1, VERY high up! I can't quite remember exactly where I was now, at some point I tabbed back in and was bored and flew to the southern spots real quick, then flew back and I think that's when I found her when flying back to my regular spot between NW1 and NW2 because of where NPCscan is highlighting picking Aeonaxx up on the screenshot. The visual range for Friendly!Aeonaxx is a very, very long ways away, since I was basically at NW1 and saw her VERY clearly way up high at NE1. It was kind of funny, I was so panicky when I finally got close enough to click, I suddenly was like, "Buttons! I need to press buttons! Crap, which buttons?!" I was so flustered!

[Britany]

HUGE grats to you!! Wish I was that lucky aeonaxx drops one of the most gorgeous mounts in the game!

[Neith]

So I've been continuing with the rare hunting and picked up a few more since I got Aeonaxx.

So they are; I finally got the bug mount from Archaeology, very shiny blue guy! It took so long, oh my goodness. I think that was my 400-something'ith solve. Fiery Warhorse FINALLY dropped, but I have no idea how many times I've killed Attuman, and I'm adding in a picture of a glaive finally dropping for the guild because it was very exciting. We've been running Black Temple after official guild raids for a while now to get one of the rogues the glaives for the guild achievement and to get one of our tanks a shield. Hoping we get the other glaive to drop for us before the Xpac :-/ Same rogue has been camping Poseidus a lot and has had some ridiculous luck. He managed to get Poseidus for himself, then for me and another guildie. Then I decided it was time to start farming for Deathcharger's Reins. Now, even though Baron Rivendare is a TOTAL baddie, I guess I have to admit I've had a little crush on him for years, because geeze he must have been a hottie when he was alive, just look at that nose! I have a thing for strong noses.... :p So yeah after 358 runs it finally dropped! Wow. That was nuts, luckily I had like 30 hours of music from Supernatural to listen to, and I was timing how fast I could get him dead which I think was 3:40.

I don't know what else to work on just yet. I have like six argent tournament mounts left to buy because I got Crusader 3 times now and it was exhausting and kind of burned me out on doing the dailies. But I think I'd rather do that, than work on learning how to solo Stonecore just yet.

[Snowbird]

congratz on ur awesome new mounts!!<33

[Snowy]

As Kalliope already explained, it's not possible for Aeonaxx to be female.

Grats on all your new mounts though! Hehe I wouldn't be disappointed to stop camping something. I would feel so relieved and a little weird at not going back to camp the next day but it would feel too awesome when I finally had that one mount I'd been after for ages!

[Neith]

Yeah I keep getting Aeonaxx mixed up for some reason. Probably because the mount itself is such a pretty purple
