And the other one, a rare Furbolg in Felwood

Grub'thor!



Lapress!


...Have I mentioned I'm farming Brood rep

That picture of Grub'thor is gorgeous, Ache. You really have an eye for screen shot composition. Well, you know what I mean, but it's a really nice catch.

I agree, it's a beautiful picture.

I'm awake late tonight due to having slept all day (been sick lately, lots of migraines), so I decided to go cruising around Northrend for rares. Naturally Sholazar's one of my first stops since I have a fondness for it.

I swoop down over the Hardknuckle Clearing and notice a very distinct large white cat prowling around. Sure enough, Loque is spawned. Now, I briefly entertain the notion of killing him since I am working on the Frostbitten Achievement, but being the hunter that I am....I just couldn't do it without ensuring he couldn't find a home first.

I check to see if any hunters are in the area, and there's one 80 in Sholazar. I whisper her to ask if she's BM. She said yes, so then I ask if she'd been looking for Loque by chance.

She replies yes enthusiastically, asking whereabouts he was. I invite her into group so she can find the spot, and within a few minutes Loque has a new home. It was very sweet, she said that she had just transferred to the server and was apologizing profusely for not having any gold to give me as thanks. I told her not to worry and that I was just pleased to see him tamed rather than killed. She continued to thank me for quite a while afterwards, so I know he's got a good home. ^^ Anyways, it left me with a nice warm fuzzy feeling, so it was a good night.

Cool! I did the same a week or two back, and refused the gold that was offered. Next day I got 10 cardinal rubies in the mail!! 0.o

But it was even better to help another BM hunter.

And yes, I will take down a rare if no one is in the area that wants him/her, but only as a last resort. Better than some DK or rogue doing it...

Lol Vephriel--same EXACT story except with Skoll--and no cardinal rubies after I turned gold down like in Fearstalker's!

This hunter, though, was in a heroic, which she left, and when she arrived realized she needed to go to the stable master--she's messed up Call Stabled Pet somehow. I shoulda been nervous someone would swoop down and kill Skoll, but really, it was stupid 'o clock in the morning, so I knew she'd be fine

I hope your sickness/migraines stop soon. Migraines are THE worst thing in the world imo.

been camping king krush for 8 days now , seen it killed 2 times before my eyes .
wish me luck
and about that crazy idea , let me know if u need any help

Regarding the Skoll story, if your hunter buddy has dual spec, she could have swapped specs (and then swapped back) to reset the timer.

I love the pics of the rares in the wild with their tamed doppelgangers at their side. I think that's why I wander around Sholazar and Grizzly Hills with my dino/bear....

What addon do i see a lot of you using for the rare spawn popup frame? I currently have NPCscan, but yours looks different. :O

Hmm, as far as I know most people use NPCscan. Could you point to a specific image, Unggoy?

Its SilverDragon, a sligthly less useful version of NPCScan.

The one at the top of tis page for example, posted by Teigan:

SilverDragon eh?

The one in the center is SilverDragon. If you mean the thing at he top, it's just a normal targetframe. xD

Yeah, i meant the frame in the middle of the screen. :p

Thanks, looking into this addon, and it does seem lees useful than NPCscan, lol.

I use both. I like npcscan but I love that silverdragon gives the targetable button. No /tar [mobname] or frantic looking around needed, just click the big, fat portrait.

NPCscan does that as well. I think also with its latest update, it puts a raid icon over the mobs head, to help in finding it just that much easier.

Reeeally? *rubs chin* *goes to check curse*

Uhm... yeah, I dunno why I'm running both. Just ignore me. Hehe.

Sometimes if I'm on the way to an old-world place, I like to check up on past pets spawn points, or rares, just to watch them, and see if I feel anything towards them that would warrant a tame (for example, on my way to Dire Maul for key runs I'd check up on ickle Snarler).

So I logged into my druid to do a bit of low-level herbing in the Barrens, and who did I stumple upon! I thought he was a slightly bright hyena for the area he was in!

Here we have Snort The Heckler, in his natural habit:



I'll post anymore that I come accross! ^^

That's my Hex! I saw him on a pet website and right at lvl 17 I got him. At lvl 75 I still have and use him!

I have NPC scan but I dont like it... it gives me heart attacks XD (jk but is does scare me) also it dosnt ALWAYS work... I ran right into Terror Spinner and it didnt go off

I recommend Silver Dragon that mod workes for me ALL the time... just my computer is being retarded so it wont work with it
