Dire Horn Tome
It took me about 2 hours to finally get the tome to tame the dire horn. It cant believe the drop rate is to the tome. But at least one thing is good i almost have all the different color dire horn pets now.

Re: Dire Horn Tome
Congrats! It took a long to drop for me as well. The little pets are super cute though!

Re: Dire Horn Tome
Took me about 15 kills and 3 pets (2 of which were the same). A friend of mine got hers on the first kill.
Should probably mention that my gear is fairly poor since I have the worst luck with drops and only have 2 pieces of heroic dungeon gear with the rest being pretty much quest gear. Tue dinomancers aren't hard at all, and only had to silence shot them once for each one. I could pull 2 at a time without much problem.

Re: Dire Horn Tome
I got like 5 pets and then finally the tome in 10-12 kills. I also had no problems soloing the guys at my Ilvl of 485 and all Raid Finder gear. Most of the time, they never even got to use their heal.

Re: Dire Horn Tome
Took me about 6 kills to get a tome, which is good because it was really hard to kill those guys with my hunter "skills"
I got a red direhorn, good luck to everyone still trying.

Re: Dire Horn Tome
Got mine after ~30 kills. Which took me quite a few hours because of how populated Proudmoore is. Lol.
Ended up with one of each pet and 3 or 4 extras.

Re: Dire Horn Tome
I was shocked when the Tome dropped for me after only about 10 kills, usually RNG is much, much less forgiving.
The island was busy, but surprisingly there was never a wait for Dinomancer spawns, there was always some up somewhere, so most people just went around in a rotation.

Re: Dire Horn Tome
It was crazy on WrA. Pretty much every spot was being camped constantly so I waited a while and went later. It was a bit better and I found a spot that wasn't too populated.
It took me about 2 hours of farming to get my book, but I got 3 pets. Since no one was around, I farmed a bit longer for the 4th pet. I ended up with several extras too.

Re: Dire Horn Tome
I'm so glad I stayed up to get mine then! Only me and 2 other hunters on the island when I went to farm and i think it took an hr? I got all 4 pets (several times lol! didn't even know they dropped so was like "hey omg!") and about 40 bones. Got my book and tamed my gorgeous blue direhorn and a yellow devilsaur (just cause i liked the look of em
).
I'm going to assume it will be swarming this evening as every hunter on Barth realises what they have to do lol!

Re: Dire Horn Tome
I spent almost all afternoon helping folks farm tomes. It honestly wasn't too bad. We all got all of the pets. I tamed a blue direhorn, though I'm torn by the green one... Can't pick between golden or black/blue devilsaur.
I got mine within an hour.

Re: Dire Horn Tome
Eadgyth got it after 57 kills, Mozag after 2, and Lazuli after about 30 or so. I still have one more hunter to do, and am desperately hoping for good luck with the drop as it was rather frustrating and I have countless mini-pets now as well.
