Oooh, shiny...

Unread post by Comett »

Recently I have been working on levelling my shaman (who I guess is the last of my "primary alts" who needs to hit 85, she's taken the back seat quite a bit recently). As she's resto main spec, and I honestly can't be bothered to go through the same quests for the 6th time now, I decided to level her via dungeoneering.

The levels 82-84 suck the most because whenever you select "random dungeon" you pretty much, 95% of the time, get Stonecore and Vortex Pinnacle. x_x Well at least, I have on all my toons haha. Regardless I sat through the grind and healed the horrible groups. I got VP recently, and it was a bit of a botch group, but I was 5% away from levelling to 84 so decided to stick it out.

Well then - guess what dropped?

I'm not a huge fan of this drake build, however his quiet, all-knowing persona seriously matches my Yowls perfectly. He's also a little "elemental" (being a storm dragon or w/e they're called), which I think suits a shaman. Yowls actually only had normal flying haha so I had to take her off to Dalaran (faction discount) to learn advanced flying. While I was there I gave Yowls a hair cut so now she matches her new mount lol :D

Couldn't be happier... while I collect mounts on my main, now that she has her 100 achieve I'm not too bothered about drops for my alts - I'd much rather actually obtain mounts on my alts that suit them. :D No offence to Yowl's white gryphon, but Mr Drake sort of takes priority I think!

(Not to mention I got Sambas earlier today on my hunter alt - at the time I was grumpy that I woke up so late, but if this is what I get, no complaints now! I feel like going to Vash'jir and putting some time into Possy now, lol.)

Ooh, gratz :D
I've never seen either drake, and you are bloody damn lucky for getting Stonecore and Vortex Pinnacle so often xD I only ever get HoO, Lost City of Tol'vir and so on, boring dungeons if you ask me. xD

Thank you!

Eeeh, it sucks! I'd take those dungeons any day hahaha. I seriously must have gotten VP and SC like... 8 times or so, each, on each alt I dungeon-levelled (so... Tibs, Yowls and Cab)... I'm so sick of them lol XD

But yeah, despite that I've only ever seen the SC mount drop once (that was on like the first or second day of Cata, I think it was my first SC run on my main, or one of the first) and that went to a pug... and this was the first time I've seen VP mount drop, and I won it. :D Haha.
