Swift Springstriders - Unite!

Unread post by Snowy »

Grabbed your Swift Springstrider yet and want to show it off? Or want to rant about how it's not dropped for you yet? Do it here!

I know lots of people have mount journals of their own and like to post their successes in there, but here's a thread dedicated to our lovely little white strider of Noblegarden-ness.

And no, I haven't grabbed mine yet. :c Me and the boyfriend went egg hunting last night in Bloodhoof Village as soon as the event became available at midnight and he got one to drop in under 40 eggs! He wouldn't stop teasing me about it and he wasn't even aiming for the mount whereas it was the first thing on my mind, even before the achievements. -.-

Very much yes.


Also; I want to rant about how entitled the "campers" are about the people actually running around "stealing" their eggs.
...They don't belong to anybody but the person who clicked faster.

And I did both camping and running around.
((Running around was faster despite being on a high pop realm. I just got bored and wanted to compare the two.))

Oh my god I was worried someone might have something like that happen to them. xD Poor you! I'm just over 250 eggs now, still no mount but MILLIONS of rabbit's feet. o.O

I only managed 3 from the 500 eggs I cracked.

Gave one to one of the campers actually running around while people complained about him "stealing" eggs in /1.
Poor guy.

I knew it was going to happen though, so I laughed it off. xD I didn't get any rabbits in my eggs, but bought three, and the two new ears, for 400 of the chocolates. I kept 100 of them, so I have food when I get low on health. xD

I actually have eight spare rabbit's feet from the eggs... o.O I was wondering if the drop chance was higher than I thought or if I was just *extremely* lucky.

Oh well, money for me. c:

I'm going to do ~100 eggs/day, so hopefully the competition will be less as the week goes on.

I found that camping the area in Falconwing Square made it very easy to get a lot of eggs, I quickly gathered enough for the mount in just a few hours.

Now for the actual achievements!

LOOOOOOOOOL OMG YES! I've been seeing like "U BITCH!" "WTF!" "U SUCK" "GTFO" all morning in yell. Durr durr just because you are too slow to run around and get the eggs doesn't mean that the egg spawn you're camping is ~ALL YOURS~


got my birdy, had to pay chocolates for it. XD

At least you can buy it if you don't get a drop.

I got it for my gnome priest. I've been waiting for that eversince this mount was announced! :D

And while I was at it I also got her the Noble title so I had to gather a total of 655 eggs. In those I found:
4x Spring Rabbit's Foot
8x White Tuxedo Shirt
5x Black Tuxedo Pants
1x Elegant Dress
4x Spring Circlet
8x Spring Robes

Ah, why do those last two have to be BoP? I hate just throwing stuff like that away. XD

I admit I'm a camper. Just don't like running around. >< But people are free to take them if I'm too slow, they're putting more effort into it after all.
Either way, picked up 100 eggs today and got a robe, a dress and a tux shirt. Hoping to get that mount, even if I don't particularly adore it. xD I'm weird...

*Eye twitches at the sight of Cow not putting a captial letter on her pets name* :|

Grats all you guys! And I also prefered to camp Lupis. I would camp the general area near and around the cart with the b'elf woman whining about her cheese in Falconwing Square. I must have farmed over 700 eggs today because I spent 500 on the mount, 100 on the two new circlets they added in (Black and pink) and 100 chocolates just for eating for the achievement. I now have everything possible from this event and the only achievement I have left to do is the rabbit ears one. (Which requires PvP since not enough people hang around in Dalaran anymore, b'aw.)
