Terrorpene & Ankha

Unread post by Curzon »

So here's the story of how I ended up with two Hyjal rares in less than a hour.
I logged onto my hunter and flew over to Hyjal to start the search.
I saw someone camping for Magria/Ankha so I flew over to see if Terrorpene was up...and he was. Swimming in the lava without a care in the world. So I grabbed him.

After taming him, I left for Northrend to check for Skoll...but he wasn't there.
So I fly back to Hyjal to do my dailies.
While doing them, I hear from a guildie in Molten Front that Solix was just tamed.
I had read on wowhead for Ankha/Magria that the spawn goes 2 in Molten Front, then Ban'thalos about 30 minutes later, then Magria/Ankha about an hour after Banthy.
She says that skitterflame was also up about an half-hour ago.
So I start to camp for either of them, knowing they couldn't be far behind.
And low and behold, Ankha appears less than hour after I got Terrorpene.

Yes, the spawn thing seems to be true, so please pay attention.
2 rares in Molten Front, followed by Ban'thalos within half-hour and then one of the cats an hour later.

Congrats! :D

That's so weird, almost the same thing happened to me with the exact same rares. I found Terrorpene and less than 15 minutes later, Ankha was up and I tamed her as well. :3

WOW! This week must literally be Blizz's apology to hunters or something. EVERYONE is taming two rares in 2 hours or less of each other.

I got Ban'thalos and Ankha within 2 hours and helped a friend tame Deth'tilac only an hour before that. REALLY weird. And nice of Blizz, if its their doing. O.o

My main hunter turned 85 yesterday and managed to tame Karoma not even 10 minutes into being 85. So I thought being that lucky I should try for Ankha/Magria because I would really love to add those two cats to my stables, but they weren't there and that area is super busy. So I decided to look for to see if Terrorpene was up just for the heck of it (I didn't want him, but was in the area and thought perhaps I can watch someone tame him) And he was! My hunter could have easily tamed him (but I didn't really want him.... and I prefer someone else tame him who plans to use him) Anyways, I stood there for a minute or two thinking I should "/who" to find a hunter (there were so many I didn't know who to start asking) who wanted him, but then a tauren showed up. Tthe poor guy died at least three times trying (He was 81 and he hits like a truck). In the end, an 85 orc came by and tamed him. I felt bad for the tauren, but I'm sure he will be more prepared the next time around. And those two horde hunters probably thought I was pretty weird to just sit there following it not even trying to tame. ;)

Congrats on the tame!

It actually switched on me, about a few hours after ankha spawned Banny spawned for me. So I think it as usual depends on the server, how long a rare was up etc.

thank you Ashaine and Kurenio!!!!
