[Castile]

Thank you!!! The colours are so phenomenally appealing to me there was no way I could let myself pass up the opportunity. Just gonna...stick a few more screenshots here.

Will she ever ride another ground mount...? Probably not, it's too perfect.

Massive Gratz to you Veph!!

Though it does remind me, I really need to pull my finger out and get my last wins

I probably won't SB. This is my ground mount for now and ever.
And thank you!
In the end I went with the 3v3s instead and it went so much faster than RBGs. Thank god for the OQueue addon or I don't think I would have had a chance!

[Kööna]

Congratulations, Vephriel! That's a gorgeous mount!
I, myself, got extremely lucky last night when I went into the Vault of Archavon in Wintergrasp.
After 189 boss kills on my Alliance toons, I decided to run it for the first time on my Blood Elf Hunter.
Well....it actually dropped on the Ice watcher!:)

[Krysteena]

Oh Gratz you two! I love the Vicsoius skeletal warhorse they added (heh, I'll never get it) and I'm not surprised you made it a goal to get that beauty.
Kööna, considering there's 4 bosses it can drop from...that's a lot of runs for a mammoth. You would've thought a huge Mammoth would drop quickly. It a mammoth for goodness sake. It is a nice mount, I agree. Still gives me a heart attack when I'm sitting on the big guy, and I turn around to see ones random person sitting on him and smiling at me. I tend to avoid riding him in BG's for that. I don't appropriate random people sitting on my mammoth. He loves it.

Side note: Here I continue in the theme of mammoths. Guess who realised they had had enough justice points for a wooly mammoth? Yup. Moi. Not exactly a huge mount achievement, but I'm surprised i had enough justice points for him at all. Now. What PvP mounts do I need to get? Black war wolf, Black war mammoth, Black warstrider, Black war kodo. 8k honour points. Considering the horde never win...this might take a while.

[Krysteena]

Double post, sorry. I managed to get my hands on a Swift Warstrider :3 i now have the white and balck hawkstriders. Ahh, feels good to complete a little young and yang version of mounts. My little black hawkstrider grew up, it seems.

Screenies of him and my mammoth later, maybe tomorrow. Depends how tired I am after tonight's CM runs. I'm torn between the emerald (who will be named Dakota) and the violet (named Hui, pronounced whey) thank God Draenor will give us all four colours...

[Finduilas]

Kayro and I had agreed to do the painful farm for the Dark Talbuks of Halaa. And with the help of a very nice Ally guy on her server who let us kill him over and over again. And me killing her over and over again on my Ally we finally made it. Farming the dust was boring as hell but now we both have some pretty Talbuks to show off. Thank you again Kayro!

[Krysteena]

Yup, basically what Fin said above. Not to mention some frustrating alliance who're far too nosy and seem to like slaughtering naked blood elves.We had some rather large, but not too large, repair bills but it was well worth it. Farming for the powder was horrible. Like torture. Apparently, nothing wants to drop the powder once you get 99...Yet, it was well worth it ^_^

Zangamarsh makes for such pretty screenshots. I've still got the dark talbuk to get, but I'm happy with the one I've got now :3
Then, Fin took me on a run through Zul'aman. I'd tried this myself and failed miserably. However, it went swimmingly meaning I've also got my Amani War Bear? Amani Battle Bear? I can't remember which one it's called (that's kinda bad of me) but I'm one very happy hunter. This sweet mount caused much arm flailing on my side of the screen when i saw him appear.

/flop. That's 134 mounts now. I think my target of 146 shall be reached. Perhaps 150 may be achieved. Who knows? Thank you so much Fin! I'm sorry for slaughtering you over and over, and thanks to the ally that helped us. And that horde dude. I never realized how defensive people got over Halaa. I had a druid call reinforcements in while i was trying to capture it I'm honoured that they thought they needed 5 allies to kill me.

So yes, thanks so much Fin!

[Krysteena]

Alrighty. I hate to double post but...yesterday I managed to convince myself it'd be a good idea to get the rep for the red flying disk. Although the mount is bleh (there are some major issues with the BE crouch. Perhaps it's because her knee is going through her boot and her bow is impaling her. That's gotta hurt right?) it's a pretty cool concept.

Today, I got in my first kill of Moonfang and it's a shame that the mount isn't consumable/permanent. It's gorgeous.

Now. I thought my luck was over. Of course it was. I'd had many mounts these last few days. So I wasn't going to run any raids on my troll druid, just my hunter. However, I realised I was still logged on and hadn't turned off my computer. Logging onto my druid I just decided to run a couple of raids. My druids gear isn't very good and I don't want to send her against Kael'thas yet. I went with my two preferred raids. And...

EEEEEEE!! It dropped! Finally! My azure drake baby boy dropped! funny thing was, when I was in the last phase I was talking to myself as you do and said 'he won't drop the mount. It'll be a blue one' and then when I looted the gift at the end...I saw this sexy beast sitting inside it. And oh my Lordy lord I froze. I then had a spazzy moment. I then spammed a friend. I then looted. And I was amazed at the detail on this beauty. Oh gosh I fell in love when I saw one in Orgrimmar long ago, and to finally get him...I'm so glad I decided to run Malygos on my druid.

Here he is with Krysteena and I am not disappointed. 25 runs, around about. Wow I'm so happy a good way to end a day of nasty nasty dailies.

[Finduilas]

Congrats on Azure Kayro! He's one of my alltime favorites and Findu's default mount atm!

I finally have my fossilized Raptor Mount! After what felt like a gazillion of fossil digsites he finally came up.

[Castile]

Grats everyone

I'll just leave this here... <3<3

[Krysteena]

Grats everyone

I'll just leave this here... <3<3

*flails arms* congrats he's gorgeous! I much prefer this model over Anzu myself, but that's just me. And I'll probably get attacked now I've said that :/

I'll have to start farming Alystrazor actually. I just need to bare a few more LFR's and I can farm but...LFR's ewwie. I must say that your transmog suits him quite well

Edit--got me ma sexy dark Talbuk, after finally deciding to grind the other 90 bits of powder I needed. At least taking Halaa wasn't a pain. Normally the alliance get very protective over it. Also, despite thinking the real grind would take about a week, I'll be exalted with the tillers and dominance offensive tomorrow. Maybe Friday, depending on if I'm busy tomorrow or not. Sexy Grand armoured Wyvern here I come! <3

[Kööna]

Congratulations, Castile!
My boyfriend and I are actually trying to get both mounts from the Firelands for me.
50 something attemps so far with NO mounts at all. : )
I WILL GET THEM BOTH.....eventually.

[Krysteena]

No screenies yet, as my silly computer has completely given up on google chrome and I can't get the update because I need google but google won't work and oh Lord it's frustrating! I've had a good 3 days finally completed rep grinds and got the goats and fancy wyverns. That's 5 mounts. Then, I got a black war wolf. Make that 6 mounts. Then, today, we got Fin her last CM achev and we all got our Phoenix's together that's 7 mounts in 3 days. I'm so happy!

I joined a nice guild do once I get to exalted I can grab a scorpion and a dark Phoenix. This means I'll be making 150 mounts by Draenor, plus a little extra. Once I get my computer up and running google I can edit for screenies. We had some nice ones if us in a group, and Moila joined us in her fancy robotic head too

[Finduilas]

I will just join Kayro in the Phoenix Madness and post a few pictures for us. I'm really proud we made this! Thank you again for all your help and getting me the last two dungeons!

First up is us right after getting them, left one is Kayro on the Violet one, then me with Findu on Ashen, Mozag on Crimson and her fabulous tanking partner on Emerald.


Here Moila joined us on her phoenix


And that's the top view of our beauties

[Krysteena]

I'll make a new post, as I've got some other mounts to show too. No fancy screenies of our Phoenix's, like Fin's, as my computer with the screenshots won't connect to google chrome do I had to go downstairs, make to screenies and then upload them and now I'm writing this on the iPad. Otherwise I'd be showing all the lovely screenshots I got so, these are all quickies and look pants. It's the best I could do.

Representative goat! His name is Dusty! Goats are surprisingly cute mounts and I spent half an hour wandering around on one the other day <3

Meet Sunstreaker. Don't judge in the fact he's named after an autobot. Uniqueness is everything! He's called Sunny in my head, but those who love transformers know he hates that name a nice little detail on this grand armoured Wyvern is the fact that there's blood on his claws. Okay, it'd not a nice detail but it's a detail all the same. Only on the front ones, but I was so amazed when I realised

Here's a mount I never thought I'd get. Never one for raiding or guilds, I admired this mount but never found a guild I liked the sound of. I'm shy and a casual player and no more. I PvP on the side, but otherwise I've no intentions of becoming a hardcore player. However, I found a really nice guild and thought "heck, why not?" So, I joined. 2 days of dailies and I'm exalted. This means I also got the scorpion (who's got a much louder mount special than the amber one) but I don't use him really. The guild banner puts me off. This mount is gorgeous, and I love him! He hasn't got a name yet, but I'll think of one.

Meet Hui! This lovable, fluffable (that is now a word, no questions!) ball of feathers is the result of blood, sweat, tears and a month or so of my Friday evenings. For him, I've got Fin, Mozag, her amazing tanking bud, an awesome hunter and Fin's Mage/hunter/whatever class he is now buddy to thank! So...thanks so much guys! I couldn't have done this without you! hugs all around! I'll also thank Falconcrest for helping me decide his name.

Alrighty, I'll be making 150 mounts by Draenor for sure. Just gotta grind anglers rep...ew. I'm also hearing weird noises from outside my window. It's like a horse or two are going down the road but they're dancing. It's a distinct rhythm and it's got me so confused. Wait...is that the Queen's anthem I hear? Either I've got a load of soldiers on my road or someone/some people are dancing to the Queens anthem. Even the cat is concerned.

[Mozag]

No need for me to post screenies, since both Kayro and Fin went ahead and did it, and mine are bound to be shoddier anyway. Thank you to you both; it was hard work, but so worth it in the end.

Maybe I won't quit healing for good after all.

[Castile]

Grats ladies on the Pheonix One mount I prob wont see so mega happy for you all!!
