I dunno why those elite dragons still exist. I remembered one of them got too close to me and I had to watch my pet die.

The humanoid dragon things that prowl around?
Yeah they're annoying, but not the end of the world. You cna run away from them easily enough, and especially at 80 they need to be surprisingly close before they aggro.
Still not sure what the named one off on that one floating section of rock just off the island is for though...
But yeah as far as I can tell, the humanoid-dragon things don't have any quests related to them XD If you want a drop quest, kill the elite flayers.

yeah, definately watch out for those elite dragons. XD
I did do a good share of finding the eggs, but dailies were what got me most of the rep.

Good luck!

For sure. The eggs are merely a boost to your daily rep income, a bonus if you will, but not the main source. Doing the dailies is the quickest and most efficient way to get the rep. If you just run around trying to find eggs as your sole rep source it will take you so much longer to get to Exalted.
I think the dailies amount to roughly 3K per day, the eggs on average gave me about 1K (4 eggs).

I'm doing pretty good so far on the eggs, I think i picked up 4 this morning, adding to the 5 last night that i got and i think 4 yesturday morning it adds quick. I only think theres 1-2 other people on this grind at any time so eggs are a bit easier to find (especially in the mines I'm having a lot of good luck.
Halfway through Honored so far, Its going suprisingly very well. Dailies are kind of fun too, IE throwing boomerangs are orcs, or poisioning them, or shooting the flying carriers.
I love searching for Eggs too, I wish more rep's had those things around too

If I remember correctly there is a quest about him, can't remember how to get it started tough. He was a bitch to kill, at the very least.

I love the Booterang! I just might go back and do that daily again, even though my rep grind is finished, just for the fun of it!

I was out there last night doing it on my hunter and I had about 3 other people out there as well. I was shocked to see anyone out there still.

When I was doing my Netherwing rep over two years ago, that was when hurricane Ike hit, and my house was without electricity for a day and a half. If not for that, I would've hit exalted with Netherwing in less than the two weeks which became the result. I think I was honored before that. I was lucky though. People in other places in Houston were without electricity for weeks.

i think they took out any quest for that named one when it went live.now hes just there to smack you if an egg spawns on that rock.i dont recall skinning ever dropping eggs like mining/herbing but they may have changed it...

That named guy...I killed him once on my hunter because I figured, hey, named spawn, maybe he drops a quest item...
Pain in the ass to kill even at 80, I barely did it. Sil wasn't geared that exceptionally either, but still....it was crazy. And he dropped nothing interesting.

Or'kaos the Insane is not tied to any quests, nor anything that requires his death. He seems to just be a flavor mob.

I love this nether drake. Its so much prettier and chic compared to those proto-drakes. I'll never bother hunting TLPD again now that I can fly on the Wings of Nether!
Veridian is my favorite color, Onyx comes in 2nd

Interesting info.
I've noticed that the most popular drakes are Viridan and Onyx, and are most ocmmonly used. I, personally, like Azure better...
And fun fact! If you zoom in close on your netherwing, around his wings you'll notice he's shooting lightning bolts! We have little Skoll dragons!

I'll have to check that out about the lightning. The other colors I guess looked a bit cartoony for me, but I bought them all so if i ever get bored I can always switch it up a bit.
I just LOVE the streaks that their wings leave in the air, its really fun to do swirlies in the sky to watch the streaks go around

Azu, I always use the Azure dragon on my rogue
I use Viridian on my NE though, mostly because she had the red/bronze/blue dragons and needed a green one to complete the pattern XP
But Azure is still my favorite.
