Wow, that's a lot of mounts, congrats Lupen! Super jealous of the luck, I've had to camp 15+ hours for each of my rare mounts. (And I might need to wait four days for Pathrunner, because I had to submit a ticket!) I never thought of using the group finder tool to get a rare camping group, I might do that if I look for Silthide. And damn, I think I kind of want Nokk.

Also huge grats, Castile, that's a gorgeous mount! Dang, do I want it. I think I'll start that farm up again once I get my two mains to 100.

Iowawolf, very jealous! I need to get into one of those groups, that mount seems neato.

Whee, Pathrunner came home to me this evening! I feel like he has nicer pixels than the current blood elf model...

I got Gorok tonight, I could weep I'm so relieved. I'd been hunting here and there but tonight I settled in with a scouting group and waited about 4 hours before he spawned. I barely got my tag in since some assholes showed up and tried to burn him down as quickly as possible (they weren't in our group and we had people trying to reach him to get a tag in, sadly most didn't make it in time). I hate how rude people can be, especially when it's so easy to share this kind of spawn. Still, I'm glad I was able to get my piggy. ♥

Congrats you two ^^

I just got gorok as well! SO excited. I missed him four times. Two times I saw his corpse just before he despawned, and two times I saw him alive.. but health dropping fast. Some random person would always go and nuke him down before the entire group could get to Gorok. :( Was so depressing.

But finally tonight I found him right outside my garrison. Waited for some people to come (and asked one person to wait for others, who was nice enough to comply)

Long story short finally got my piggy :D

Image

Now I have 6/7 of the rare spawns... Only poundfist left.

Congrats, guys! So exciting to see people getting these new rares. *_* I ended up falling in love hardcore with my Great Greytusk, I LOVE the coloration- not too yellow-tan, not too grey! And the almost tarnished gold spikes are so gorgeous.

S1ncer1ty, your new talbuk is beautiful! I may not be a huge fan of the furry-club tail they've got going on, but they're just stunning otherwise. That big fluffy mane. <3

Eee, congrats Lupen! I'm so sorry you saw him that many times without getting him, I would have cried. D: And I agree Lupis, it's such a lovely colour. I'm really pleased it's not armored either as I find the armored ones lose something to their details with all that extra stuff on them.

*collapses* Another success story from last night for me though, I actually managed to get the Garn Nighthowl. I thought I had been cursed when it came to this mount because for days and days I have been trying to join groups to get it. I would stay in them for hours in line only to have the group disband or fall apart before reaching my turn (once I even got to second in line but nope, disbanded). I had nearly given up but yesterday I managed to find this amazing group led by a bunch of really nice people that had been doing it for literally hours, even though the leaders already had their mounts. They kept it going for others and even though I was 15th in line, I stuck with them and I eventually got it. ;u; This was the one wolf mount I really wanted, it's my favourite colour and it didn't have the strange helm and armor on it (I'm just really not a fan of too much armor, I prefer my mounts plain if possible).

Got to seventh place in a Nok-Karosh kill group before their server reset, so I was dumped out alone and decided to check Nagrand with five minutes before server shutdown.

Welp.

Well... that was agony.

I got in a Nok-Karosh farming group at about 1:40 PM. I was 14th in line when I joined- by the time I was second, I was leading the group. I don't know why. I don't have leadership ability, but apparently I'm good at faking it. The group juuuust about died at that point, and for a good long while I was sitting at my computer crying because I had gotten SO CLOSE and I was going to need to give up again.

And then, finally, we killed the boss. And we got more people. And we killed him again, and again, until the group was running smooth and almost seven hours after I joined, I had my mount.

Image

And as a bonus, about five days back I killed Pathrunner but I didn't get the mount due to a Dominate Mind bug. Well, while I was sitting at my computer crying, my ticket was responded to- and I got a mount in the mail.

Image

I'm gunna go to sleep for about a month now.

Congrats! The garn really is a pain to get -_- between luck, ninjas and whatever else..

I got myself another pretty mount today too .. The Shadowmane charger! He's beyond gorgeous. <3

I had only 5k crystals on hand... I'm already exalted with the Frostwolves, Arakkoa and Steamwheedle, all of which have mounts that cost 5k crystals (+ 5k gold). Not to mention, the legendary questline requires 5k crystals.

Well, I'm not a huge fan of the Steamwheedle boar - I just want it for my collection - and I knew I'd be getting a frostwolf soon from the stables achieve... The first raid tier won't be out till December as well, so the legendary can wait. So I went with the talbuk ^^

Image

I noticed that the Swift Breezestrider's mountspecial uses the old talbuks' sounds. But this guy uses the new ones.

I was in the right place at the right time for Luk'hok -- just questing when up he spawned by the Ring of Trials.

Image

And I finished off the Advanced Husbandry achievement for the Armored Frostboar. He's cute and his butt wiggles when he walks!

Aaaah, I'm jealous, s1ncer1ty! I'd very much like to get my hands on Luk'hok, and I don't even like Elekks. I love that yellow color, though!

Lupen, that tallbuk is gorgeous, very nice!

Apologies for the double post! Apparently, luck is on my side. o.o I just said I wanted Luk'hok, and then when I ran through Nagrand to tame a Snarler... he spawned. On top of me. I feel like the Nagrand rares are laughing at me and my weird desperation to get all the mounts.

Image

Unfortunately people pulled way early so only a handful of people got the mount, but I'm just glad I was there!

Aaaand a little before that, I saw I had 198 mounts, so I hopped on my lock and got myself a dragonhawk. I'm not really into dragonhawk mounts, but it is really ute, I have to say.

Wow finally after soo long of countless hours camping in soo many different groups, camping all the mount rares at the same time, camping only one at once.
Last night i found a Pathrunner only group. So i thought maybe its better to only camp just one for now. So i sticked with that.

Has been sitting in this group for the past 4 hours, wathing tv series, was on my third episode when i tabbed into the game again. And i saw the guy who was camping at the cave said he is up!. HE IS UP AT THE CAVE.
Everything exploded peaople screaming CC Stop attacking!! He said there is allies here NUKing him! Get here fast NOw!. I ran for my life. The other day i was camping to i found Shirni, and got the Spirit of shirni item that turns you into him for some seconds runs really fast. I was up at the very northrend spawn, and flew with this item allmost down to the cave, where i saw Pathrunner going from 40% to 10 in a few seconds!! Then the blessed druid cycloned it to save it for the few lucky ones that made it because of it. I got my hit in at only 6% because ppl where spamming attacks.

Finally got it! Was soo happy! But i felt bad for the poor souls who didnt make it!.

So before i went to bed last night i camped myself at Nagrand. At one of Nakk's spawn points, hoping that he would be up when i logged in this morning. There was no nakk or Luk up. Then i decided to stalk the group finder. There it was a group called LUK'HOK up!!! and i spammed it and started running. Joined in and he had spawned at the Mar'gorks spawn point and i was down south. Thank god there wherent many there and he was inviting in ppl to get it. So i ran and eventually found it. We summoned and got all there. I think we where around 20 something players, and i also got a friend into the grp aswell! :) so happy pathrunner and luk so close!

Oh my gosh, Moila because of your post I decided to check the group listing just now and found a Nakk up! :D That's such a great idea, I don't know why I didn't think to look in the premade finder before.

Congrats both of you! The premade finder tool is amazing for rare hunting- I haven't used it yet for rares, but a ton of friends have had great luck with it. And I always check it every hour or so for "____ UP" groups!
