That is the best reason for anything ever! But unfortunately, that leaves the rest of us locked out. Jealous!

To be more specific, it's the loading bar that's freezing everyone else. Would love to know how you got around it!



And we do have a mix, so it's up to you! As long as we can relay messages around, it's all good.

I disconnected and was able to zoom right back in, maybe it got fixed?

Edit. just saw the loading bar... i have no idea. im not using anything special, freshly downloaded PTR client/game and no addons. maybe its destiny, the weight of pandaria on my pandas shoulders. were doomed!

Nope, still hitting the loading bar error.

I've been having that error since the servers were restarted yesterday (when there was discussion about the missing image). Haven't been able to get in on any server since then, even did a fresh install, a fresh install with a copied live folder + patching, and a fresh install on an entirely different battle.net account. Hopefully they'll get it fixed today. So I can keep looking for tracks that may, or may not, exist.

That is bizarre... why me? Now that you mentioned it, I havent seen another player at all. Trade channel has like 20ish. I havent visited the new quest hubs because my purpose for PTR is new pets, i save content for live personally.

Yep, that's why I'm so curious! Would love to know what the handful of you did differently than the rest of us.

Are you in Pandaria when you try to log in? Ive not left Pandaria but I have disconnected in 3 different zones and logged off and back in in the Alliance city, shrine of... 18 eggrolls or whatever it is

I've tried multiple characters on different continents. :/ My main (the sole 90) is in Pandaria.

I managed to get on my nondescript premade 85 hunter and I'm now checking the Sandreaver tameability because I was reading WoWhead's new 5.1 spells and one of them was Sand Trap. That kinda reminded me of Sand Reavers..

It's really crazy.

Sadly, as a 85 - there is not much I can do but check possible old world tameables.

Which is still great, since Caelan's thread is already bursting with information and we've barely scratched the surface when it comes to old world zones.

Indeed

Im still downloading the ptr lol I even copied data from live but its still slow as heck. Playing live while downloading the ptr makes wow not too happy

Hopefully I can download it and the servers will come up so I can come help you guys hunt

True true! But really, can you blame me for wanting to help find Pandaria rares more than Old World ones? x)

I am apparently one of the.. 14? people able to get into Pandaria atm and while finding the rares here is exciting, when I consider that...

I dont even know if they are implemented yet
I dont know if they follow the same "hidden leaving tracks" as the launch rares
I dont know which zone or even which part they are in
I dont know if the new ones will cross paths, although the launch rares did not
I dont know if tracks are hidden from phasing from quests, ala Portent
I dont know if tracks are hidden from phasing I cant change, ala Glimmer
I dont know if I am hot, cold, wrong place, wrong time/build, right place wrong time, right place but phased

Its exciting but frustrating

this is why i hope were given a simple hint. i will gladly do the legwork, have been already.

100% this. Something may be out there in Pandaria, but there might not be!

At least we know we're getting someplace with the new old world rares. And there are new skins there too!

Oh, I wholeheartedly agree though! But still, there's still excitement, as mentioned before by both of you, in trying to find them.


Also, "there might not be!"? Weren't there mesmerizing tracks that were found near the Temple of the White Tiger?

Looks like the silk worm is probably in.

looks like the wine colored silk worm is gonna be a 'rare' if theres datamined track mechanics

Yeah we got told this when we were told about the spirit beasts IIRC.

I think we were only told it would show up, but was never told how :3

It was implied that it would be like the currently known rares.

Thanks for the confirmation that SOMETHING SPECIFIC could be out there, Loki!
