The Luckiest Hunter Alive!(GONDRIA, LOQUE, ARCTURIS-2 DAYS)
Posted: Mon Feb 15, 2010 5:38 pm
Wow, sorry for any misspells, I'm still shaking...
I was so excited to hit 77 because i knew it meant flight and that meant camping some Northrend rares. Little did I know that a miniscule amount of camping was in the cards for this hunter. I have always been enthralled with the spirit beasts since i started this hunter, and I wasn't bothered by the DPS drop involved. So the hunts begin...
Level 73: 3 days ago
Leveling around in Grizzly and see Arcturis on first visit to Amberpine. Try to power level to 74 quickly but no dice, he is gone
.
Level 74: 2 days ago
Return to Amberpine and camp for six hours before finally laying claim to Arcturis! (Only orthodox tame in my career)
Level 76-77: Today
Questing in Zul'Drak, getting a little bored with all the trolls, and finally get to the Har'koa quests. What a blast these were! I really enjoyed the "mythological" side to all these quests. As you know, when you get absorbed in a questline, the XP flies...so before i knew it I was 77 and on my way to Dalaran. I learned Cold Weather and hearthed back to Zul'Drak. Just for the fun of it, i decide to take a lap, a Gondria circuit. Little did I know that on my first stop NPCScan would boom. Fly back to town (Arcturis was active!) switch pets and fly back. Luckily he is still there! GONDRIA IS MINE ;D
So, now that Zul'Drak is basically drained for me, I head to Sholazar. My original intention was to simply quest around and MAYBE, HOPEFULLY spot Loque, but I wasnt optimistic. I was aware of the dreadful 10-min despawn and his respawn timer. Also his MANY spawn points. Not to mention, I can't afford Epic flight. But the image of Har'koa's beautiful pelt calls to me, and I decide a few laps isnt too bad. 30 minutes later, and im begging in general chat for gold to buy flying. No dice there, so i decide to fly to Dal and beg some more. Wait, no FP at NESINGWARY??? So i set out on the quest to earn my right to fly when I realize I have level 72 Humar out. We are quickly killed by pesky Venture Co. Ruffians. Tired of the whole process, I get on my slow mount and start the long flight to Dal. My path leads through one of Loque's spawns, so i decide, "what the heck, wouldnt make sense to pass it up," and fly on through. BOOM NPC FOUND... so i dismount and prepare. Luckily the spawn is full of yellow gorillas, but there is a problem! My cat is dead. So i revive, praying no one will come along.........Phew *Abandon*! And then the frost trap, and BANG, Loque is mine!
I am level 77 Briaries on Kel'Thuzad (US). High Pop realm so lots of competition....only one thing can be said
PRAISE P. DAWG!!
