Well I finally finished off my S H Rep this morning (I was quite lazy with this one <.<), and officially ticked a Heavenly Golden Cloud Serpent off my wish list... and pretty much the Timeless Isle too (accept for the Ashe hide Mushan /shudder)

Now with being even a bigger lazy bones (/snicker) I have only 500ish more lazy bones to collect until I have enough for the Bone-White Primal Raptor.

After that... I looks like I'll be back to fishing for that.... DAM.... SEA..... TURTLE! :|

This happened earlier tonight. I am still completely stunned and just so glad I NEVER have to grind that place ever again.

Image

Image

65 Rivendare kills it came to. A few other kills on other alts and that but the brunt was of course on my main here! This is the second time I've seen it drop, unfortunately the first time occurred when I was on my other account, opposite faction and in a dungeon group levelling my other hunter.

My shaman also had a stroke of luck once again on Tuesday just before reset!

Image

Image

The last raid drop I got was Onyxia and it was also on my Shaman! She has the luck right now it seems!

I seriously am running out of things to do!

I also made myself a Sapphire Panther and got the Fey Dragon as an early xmas pressie!

AND I finally got round to getting the Amani Battle Bear with a little help from a friend!

Image

I still have 6 more mounts (on my DK at least with the added special mounts they get) to collect to get the 200 mount achievement! I still need 3 raptors, the 3 Primal Direhorns, Zul Gurub's mounts, some engineering, 4 gem panthers, Alysrazor's mount and a few raid achievements so plenty to choose from, they are starting to take up a lot more time though!

I just realised I've been pretty lucky and productive in the last week or so, it wasn't that long since my last post and I STILL have a big one to follow up. ^^;

Congratulations on all the new mounts!
You're lucky about Rivendare's Deathcharger dropping after only 65 times... x)

Starting my mount collecting journey with all the runs I can do while I'm leveling my first toon.

3rd run of Raven Lord.... the bugger drops his reins. WIN! He's my 60th mount, first instance drop (minus the Twilight drake from OS because... well, guaranteed drop).

SO stoked - one of my favourite ground mounts.

Congratulations, Wyal.
The Raven Lord certainly is one of the prettiest ground mount in the game. It's a shame they removed the Zulian Tiger. :(

I was out looking for Krush in Sholazar a few days ago (which was successful, but that's another thread, heh) and decided to grab an egg from the Oracles for laughs. I didn't really expect much of it because during Wrath I bought hundreds of the little buggers and got nothing out of it.

Being the first egg I bought since coming back to the game, I suppose it was lucky, because it spit out the Green Proto-Drake. Just in time for me to get Pandaria flying, too. Suffice it to say I was pretty pleased.

Congrats! I didn't manage to get an egg to hatch the mount until Cata. Enjoy your drake, they are such happy mounts!

Grats on the Green Proto! I should be Revered with them when I do their dailies tonight, so will be starting my path on the Green Proto Drake hunt as well.

Second run of EoE: Blue Drake XD

Now to keep going for the Azure, she is by far my favorite of the original drake model. Can't wait to have her to fly around on.

Thank you Castile! It got even better today.

I got the last skyshard I was missing for Alani after a really long hard grind. And I killed Alani with my husband. I love this mount. The color is really striking.

Image
Image

And because of my skyshard farm I had earned so much gold I could craft the last JC panther I was missing (excpet for black, but I have to craft the other four again for it).

Image

edit:
the mount day now came to an end with my raf reward. I always wanted to have the zhevra and I finally could fulfil my wish.

Image
Image

No idea why the last pic became so big. I uploaded them all at once. Sorry.

So I got a landro's gift box card from family over Christmas.
I turned it in and received a Nether rocket X-Treme. I have always wanted a rocket mount,so I am quite happy currently.
Also grats Finduilas on the mounts you got,that Alani mount is very cool.

Lately I've been soloing old raids I'd never done before -- it's a neat feeling to have the strength to stand against the major characters of the game on your own, but not really know what they'll do or what to expect on the way to them. I'd solo'd Black Temple and Sunwell Plateau pretty easily over the last week (with the little bonus of the Eredar Twins dropping the Golden Bow of Quel'Thalas for me) and tonight I wondered if I was able to take on some of the Wrath raids on my own.

I started first with ten-player Sartherion, who killed me once with my turtle out. I decided it might be better just to out-damage him and push his teeth in, so I swapped out for my spirit beast. This was much more successful, and leaving up the three twilight drakes, I was awarded with the Black Drake mount. Felt pretty good.

That victory made me hungry though, and I decided to try for Malygos as well. Maybe this was a foolhardy choice, but I was drunk on the win in the previous raid so I couldn't be reasoned with. Malygos was a pretty easy fight until the flying section, in which the drake mount couldn't put out the damage I needed to take him down before he caught me. I died twice against him before figuring out a rotation that kept me alive. It was slow going, but finally I got him down. Alexstrasza showed up and offered me the loot for the kill -- and I was knocked out of my chair to see BOTH the Blue and Azure Drakes included! I couldn't believe it.

So, all in all, I guess you could say tonight was a good night.

Okay, so it's no huge accomplishment, but I finally got my Orgrimmar Wolf. Took 200 marks, because I got the Stormwind Steed first thinking it'd turn into the wolf on my horde characters. Nope. Had to do another bunch of dailies, but I'm just happy to finally have it. It's the perfect wolf for my monk!

Gratz Lupis! Thats one of my fav wolves too actually! And the tourny is still a major grind so I think it counts as a big acomplishment! That stuff takes alot more effort (and stamina!) then bowling over some lvl 70 boss over and over again for a rare mount :D
