Taken from my post I posted on WoWhead. But wanted to make sure people here knew as well.
---------
Just started the camp for this rare today. And I have learned one thing that I dont believe anyone has mentioned in these comments just yet.
I am on a PVP Server. And for anyone else doing this camp this info might come as a little relief if they are in the same boat as me. If your attempting the top-of-the-tree strategy like I am, ( Cords: 27.26, 64.26 ) ,then I will be happy to tell you that right below the tree and a little to your right if your looking at the camp itself, is the flight master for the area. So far I have had three different players try and land on the mountain behind me attempt to shoot me from afar thinking I am completely AFK. (First was an Elemental Shaman, Next a Moonkin Druid, and third another Hunter), all three quickly found out that shooting me parked up in this tree leaves a -very- angry flight master shooting at them from her location on the ground. These three griefers found out very quickly just how hard they made that flight master hit.
Only the shaman was stupid enough to continue to try to poke me. (I guess he didnt think about possibly healing himself back up to full after having ran away from the flight master for the first failure.) And I am not excatly sure what actually killed him....the flight master hitting him a 2nd time for casting Frost Shock on me (I guess he didnt want me to run away from him up in the tree?), or simply the fall damage of trying to land on the tree with me and failing. I guess only he knows. Shout outs Mr. Orc Shaman, you made my camping a little more entertaining.
PS: He did the the "Hearth of Shame" when he rezzed.

I hope some of you out there got the same giggle I did. Wish me luck everyone. <3
