Looking for a mount like Temeraire

Unread post by Iowawolf »

I just discovered Temeraire who is a dragon that fights alongside his British rider in the books by Naomi Novik if no one has heard of him check out His Majesty's Dragon it will tell you who he is and what he does, what I am wondering is what mount in the game best fits him I was thinking Huolon due to him being a celestial like Temeraire but maybe until my hunter hits 90 are there any drakes that also could match him?

ummmm hes shown as a black eastern style dragon (sometimes with gem/stars around the edges of his wings?) right? There are a few ways you could try and replicate that.
the stone/storm drakes from cata are darker colored with crystals on the wings/lightning marks and glowy decoration so the mount from both normal mode 5mans, stone core and vortex, could fit.
A black or dark blue Netherwing drake could probably work pretty well. its got the dark colors and some nice tail frills and the edges of the wings are kind of transparent and glowy. They leave behind a trail when you fly. the rep grind should be too ad as a 90 and you can always hunt eggs.
then if you feel like throwing money at your problem there is the Fel drake. A reskin of the black drake with fel fire and wings fading from orange to yellow to green.

hope you find something that works for you. (now I want to go check these books out :lol: )

Thank you for the replies, I too was thinking of the netherwing drakes mostly the onyx as for them leaving a trail that is new to me guess I need to ride them more lol since I do have them all from way back. The drake from Vortex is another great idea I have to farm it with greater urgency also was thinking maybe the mount I will never see the drake from Onyxia. If the Heart of the Aspects was black not yellow it would be perfect but not the mount from Huolon with the seat and all Temeraire only has a saddle and harness on him. Thanks again for replies and yea go check them out from what I've been reading they are awesome have fun.

This is why my other half refuses to ride cloud serpents; he hates the *chairs* that they have strapped on their backs.

I've been meaning to read those Novik books. Maybe I will after I finish my current read!
