I logged in this morning after breakfast, I was planning to once again leave wow up while I had other stuff to do online.
I wasn't really expecting I'd see anything, but I decided to ride one circuit just because. I opened a chat window and was going to just type in general "Anyone seen King Mosh today?" but before I could type anything my screen lit up like the 4th of July as Silver Dragon and NPCscan both detected the presence of my long-awaited target.
I dismounted, made sure I had dismissed my pet, and hit my haste-potion-tame-beast macro. I knew attempting to trap this beast was a waste of time, no trap can hold the King of Un'goro.
He feared me twice! He wasn't going to come quietly, oh no, not this King. I had to prove my worth, and even six days of hunting this elusive beast was not yet enough.
I feigned death and started again. This time, I finally had success. At 9:14 am, on the sixth day of hunting King Mosh, after almost giving up a dozen times, patience paid off. I was thrilled.
Of course I couldn't help expressing delight in the general chat. I got some congrats, but sadly it was another hunter who would attempt to ruin my morning. He felt it was his duty to point out that all pets get abilities based on species now, and congratulated me on "wasting my time."
I was very diplomatic, and told him I'd accomplished some good out there, and also got what I wanted. He is free to play the game how he likes, and I am too, it's not necessary to rain on anyone's party. Someone kindly agreed with me, and the rude hunter put me on ignore. So... I win?
I think this is a new record, being ignored because I tamed a rare elite *that no other hunter was seeking* just because I wanted it.
I refuse to let this wet blanket reduce my happiness even one bit, as I dance in the blasted Crater with the King of the Devilsaurs.
