Time-Lost or Aeonaxx or Sandstone drake?

Unread post by Chimera »

I like them both and while ive been very diligent in getting Vyragosa time-stamps im wondering if i should go for a different mount.

All in all im really only camping cause i want a protodrake and time-lost seems the easiest and attractive (very picky about their colors) but ive been doing heroic Utguard Pinnicle for the blue protodrake on the side.

I already have the player made mats for Sandstone Drake, im just 5k gold away from having my goblin go buy the vendor mats but then im about 3k away from having a chance at someone making it for me since my goblin is a beginner archy (she does have the necessary alch skill though-- i think).

Aeonaxx i want because hes an interesting challenge and thats kinda the only reason i want him... other then that hes a flying mount and thus a nice change as well as an addition to my mount collecting and he is nooooowhere near as hard as Time-Lost.

Camping Aeonaxx would also allow me to fly over the tunnel network Jadefang spawns in seeing as i still want the mini-pet version for Termarya (my Jadefangs name).

Pretty much im just asking if i should keep camping Time-Lost or if i should camp Aeonaxx and do heroic UP once a day instead of camping Time-Lost since he is veery.. veeeery annoying to camp.

Even with the new knowledge of how to camp for him, i remember now why i gave up on it. I dont do well camping things that have spawn points like him (not that theres a lot, its more the space between them when you consider how large Storm Peaks is) and his ungodly long patrol routes that do circles around the entire western side of Storm Peaks @_@

I dont think NPCScan detects Jadefang unless you're INSIDE the tunnel.

Huh. It never went off for me if I was not in the tunnel.

NPC Scan is not affected by walls or borders as long as you can target the mob. Jadefang can be manually targetted if you're around outside the tunnel, and she will alert if you fly nearby.

You don't even need npcscan to see if Jadefang is there--fly directly over her spawn point with track beasts.
