Saturday was like any other day. I woke up ‘early’ as always, just before 10am. I head into the office and Ariia my partner is flying up to do the daily. When NPCScan goes off. She flies down kills the rare and countiues on to the daily run. Normally I wouldn’t care but the rare was from Zul’Drak, where Gondria spawns.
I haven’t before this point spent any great time looking for any of the spirit beasts. But why not give it a go today. I know a rare in the area was killed at just before 10am, and they could well be linked on a 4-8 hour re-spawn timer. So 3 hour after the kill I log on to the huntard and re-spec my pvp spec to good old BM. Ariia comes over and joins me for an hour or so before she gives up out of boredom.
About 2 hours in I was about to give up as we had to go out soon, and then bam. NPCScan starts going crazy. There she is, in all her glory, Gondria. I fumble around to try and dismiss the pet I have, lets face it no one like devilsaurs much anyway. I grab a trap and start to tame her. The whole time thinking some ass is going to fly in and kill her. It seems to takes forever but she is mine.
Its funny how I never cared for Spirit beasts that much, because they seemed like far to much effort to get. But I now find myself camping Skoll’s known spawns. I have been bitten by the spirit beast bug. I must have them all.
This is going to be one long week.
Ain’t that the truth
