#

still haven't grabbed any inert ash tho lul

daring scroll
#

And here you are thinking of having to do it twice?

rugged raven
#

no, just getting it from the AH when the price halves

daring scroll
#

It might not. With how painful the farming is for some of the items it might discourage the resale market, or at the very least keep the price way up there.

rugged raven
#

I barely managed to do it with the baubleworm. Was maybe 10k ahead total. ☹️

#

already 2,6m on Silvermoon. Not like I have 2,6m to spare 😛

#

Well. The everliving spore is very RNG once a week. And its price wobbles a lot between 200 and 400k. It takes months to sell one anyway.

daring scroll
#

where the pet here is two very painful grinds and a TW raid to get.

#

That we haven't confirmed can be completed more then once on a char.

cold fable
#

at the minimum will be once per timewalking event

#

but we need confirmation

daring scroll
#

Yep, which we can get May 23rd I believe was the next

#

Though I will not be farming inert ash again to find out myself 😛

rugged raven
#

you can't chromie time classic no?

vale geode
rugged raven
#

That's fair. The charms have devalued a lot, AH-wise, so I buy a lot of pets even though I've got enough charms. But not sure if it's the same for US realms.

vale geode
#

well, that would have made more sense to find the end quest and then have to search backwards to Zektar rather than spending 6 months discussing what was supposed to lead us to Zektar from finding the items, which is nothing, no clues, just here's some sus stuff now go dig in the database and wait.

Is the wishwing not showing up in the journal fixed

uncut torrent
#

wait, so it really was timewalking gated? :I

sturdy glen
#

made sense hint wise, just wasnt fun since it meant we reached a point early on in this where we literally could not make progress.

uncut torrent
#

yeah, and hiding something to timegated thing like timewalking imo feels abit lazy

sturdy glen
#

they bumped up the rate that the TW cycles at least. people arent going to be waiting as long as ghost moose

uncut torrent
#

aah thats good

sturdy glen
#

and it gives you time to farm the abyssal drop rate ashes

uncut torrent
#

yeah i had all other stuff done on char before i went break from wow 😛

daring scroll
#

Love how the Wowhead comments are are complaining that the TW bit is the easy part compared to the grinds for some of the other materials.

tacit owl
#

the amount of people camping the cooking pots out in wod is almost comical

sturdy glen
#

it's like that 1 bojak horseman quote but "when you wear secret finding glasses, all the map assets and rocks look like clues"

daring scroll
#

Which is why we always need more people to poke holes at silly ideas and keep people grounded. 😛

sturdy glen
#

dont say poke that implies we were the ones who made the problems appear

#

i point not poke

daring scroll
#

"poke at the holes" 😛

sturdy glen
#

no no poke catscream

#

its not even the cookpot part thats the bad imo, worst is the dam ungoro part 😄

#

the drop is so rare and there's so few of the right named ones. took me like 2-3h i think or more to get the 20 nonstop chasing them with 0 competition

#

imagine with all the blobs of people 😄

daring scroll
#

You got it fairly fast then

#

Even without competition it took me far longer for the Un'Goro grind.

uncut torrent
#

mhm, i was just fly mounting around as hunter and shooting any mob without checking wich fire ele it was

#

if it tags as elemental on my map it dies 😄

daring scroll
#

Yep, did the same, had a good route going too to give me almost no downtime waiting for respawns.

visual walrus
#

It's good that I collected everything in advance, even the excess)))

uncut torrent
#

same, i dont have fomo, i have fear of starting after the blob starts 😄

tacit owl
#

@uncut torrent thats why we farmed them 5 months ago when no one else was:D

uncut torrent
#

yeah 😛 and to me the last item got to the point of "i'll wait till after timewalking to not waste my time"

#

and good thing i did 😄

tacit owl
#

I don't consider it a waste of time, I ended up with 4 mounts I didn't have, a ton of transmogs, and 3 pets. while keeping myself occupied while working

#

plus I sold the pet last night for 1mil so it was worth it to me

daring scroll
#

Only 1 mil? 😛

tacit owl
#

it sold in 20 mins, I wish I had listed it for more lol

flint star
#

I'm impressed it went for 1mil. Usually expensive minipets take forever to move on the market.

uncut torrent
#

well if it was recently found i assume it was the "peoplewanting it asap to be that cool person with it"

#

same in every game. doesnt matter if its common as long as its new thereare people flexing them 😄

tacit owl
#

I think the wow head post plus the fact most people didn't know how to cage it worked in my favor because mine was the only one listed on the AH. They still don't have any more listed atm

uncut torrent
#

nice :> i dont have sub atm so cant yoink a free few month sub 😄

warped plume
#

I also just sold my pet

vale geode
#

prices gonna double next week

daring scroll
#

Then we get the next secret and find out this thing is once per a char and has an Uuna like storyline after for later secrets? 😛

vale geode
#

we'll know next TW if the quest resets, might know on Wed if the quest resets

#

tues

warped plume
#

I've already started the grind on a 2nd char

vale geode
#

I need to get into a FL's run for Alys on my alt and there are none. 😾

daring scroll
#

Start one?

#

Just make it clear it is Alysrazor only

hasty latch
#

So, on a fresh "DF" alt with no progress in Spires, I did the " The Shadows of Skettis" quest chain and the NPC still isnt in the town.. what did I miss :\

tacit owl
#

you have to unlock the entire zone

hasty latch
#

Thank you for the info.

vale geode
#

woo hoo, got my 2nd ember on the testing alt

#

this baby better not disappear out of my bags on Tues

vale geode
#

so why would people decline lower geared lvl 60's for a TW raid? you only have to be lvl 35 and the gear scales

graceful moon
#

Because people think it doesn't scale so mote ilvl=better

vale geode
#

poor actual low lvl toons, how do they get in to do the TW raids?

graceful moon
#

Make thier own groups I guess

sturdy glen
#

does the TW loot scale to their level or is it stuck at max?

vale geode
#

scales

#

my prophecy has been fulfilled

#

watch half the raid leave after firebird 😄

daring scroll
#

Gonna apply for it then bail after bird? 😛

vale geode
#

this poor soul is gonna learn the hard way about the bird

image.png
daring scroll
#

Jokes on everyone else, watch his lockout already has the bird dead. 😛

vale geode
#

by Sat the raid groups will say BIRD ALREADY DEAD

vale geode
#

well this is interesting, you have to be lvl 50 to join a premade for TW, wonder how lvl 35's get in to TW

graceful moon
#

they invite someone manually, then they put the 50+ as lead

vale geode
#

sorry, not sorry, but so it begins, didn't even make it to Sat

cold fable
#

if Blizzard is smart they will just make Alysrazor drop it on Normal/Heroic version during Timewalking if they want to keep that aspect of it, otherwise Firelands Timewalking is going to be pretty toxic

#

the other solution is to make it drop from Ragnaros, in hindsight, I can actually see Blizzard doing something like that

#

they did it with the G.M.O.D dropping of Jaina on LFR

daring scroll
#

eh, it should die off a bit though, especially if they don't fix the drop rate for the inert and such, people won't want to do the grind for the pet, so less will be dropping after that boss.

cold fable
#

when it was discovered that the elementals dropped it during prepatch I really thought "man, I need to do this now because if this is big (mount) its going to be a shitshow"

daring scroll
#

And for a mount poeple would do it, but a pet? Far less when they see how painful it is.

cold fable
#

I really thought i had 200iq and started fishing in the lava lake on top of the volcano thinking "maybe it drops from fishing too" but after 50 casts I got only junk

#

but yeah, the Inert Ash is pain upon pain if the area is contested

#

I cannot think of a lot of pets that require this amount of grind

vale geode
#

I really don't think putting it in TW is that big of deal, even as much as I was campaigning against it. The issue with TW is it's in a raid, not a dung. A dung is perfect, people will finish the dung. I understand trying to get people to engage old raids. But putting a drop in there for a component of a pet is not going to do that. It's going to do exactly what is happening, people get there ember and leave and people who want to kill Rag get to be frustrated cause everyone only wants the bird.

rugged raven
#

tbh some people already did that for flametalon, but Rag has its own too.

#

@warped plume The quest is blue no?

flint star
#

Tarjin's quest is a blue ? consistent with other repeatable turn-in quests. It only has in-progress and turn-in dialogue and cannot enter your quest log.

u are taking wrong quest

had the same problem

And don't need to make the group before qing

#

Don't get distracted by the Garrison stuff

#

If you go to the Garrison camp in Spires of Arak, there should be a bird (Percy) with the continuation of that quest

vale geode
tacit owl
#

@vale geode So if they don't over tune firelands is scales to at least 10 and shouldn't be an issue. What I think some people who are making groups are missing is that more players does not = easier kills. I took some friends in there last night ( 8 of us) we listed the group as a firebird only group. we killed her no problem, and everyone left. We then finished the raid the only the 8 of us all the way up to rag in about an hour and a half. It was really easy this time around, as we were missing 2 dps but we still able to kill every boss in there.

Let me ask you a thing: to get the ashes in UnGoro, is any pre-requisite? I grinded tons and got none. Thought im missing anything.

#

Thanks in advance for any clue

#

I got the 10x cookpots items and 15 x Phoenix Ashes, 8n addition

If you want to go mega copium route, they threw this grind in as a decoy – so the powers that be don't tell to ruin more mainstream things copium

inner totem
#

any further with the secret?

violet pine
#

Given the grind of the inert ashes, i think the reward should be a mount, not a pet. There are grinds much less painful that rewards mounts. Just saying.

rugged raven
#

DK class hall pets are obtained at the same time as the mount.

#

I don't usually defend grindy pets… but the grindiest one is definitely the honor 400 duo

sturdy glen
#

Any reward will be viewed as worth it or not worth it, it's just a matter of player perspective.

Idk for me personally it only took a total of like six hours to get everything I needed for the pet. That’s not that bad

Inert and smoldering farms both done in 6 hours? ...hate you 😛

I got really lucky and joined an Alysrazor-only run last night right when my raid let out lol

@ionic cobalt have to also calculate in that watching the calendar time gate.🙃

...nah, still just a waste of time meant to artificially extend required playtime without actually adding content...

And yet this group is proof that it works.

daring scroll

Of course it works, that is why it has been a staple of game design for decades now.

sturdy glen
#

Like we're all literally STILL playing WoW in the year of our Void 2023, we're long past asking if another pet grind is the camel back-breaking straw KEKW

spare copper
#

There must be some prereq for the Ember to drop as I just killed Aly with a group on a toon that had not done anything with Zektar or farming ashes Etc also did not have the neck on that one from Griftah. it did not drop for me.

daring scroll
#

what level is your char?

#

And it is not on the corpse, it goes directly to your bags the moment she dies, are you sure it didn't get tossed in there?

spare copper
#

hmm i will check and its 70

#

you are right! it did just show up! i did get it. Thanks!

vale geode
#

Has anyone checked to see if it will drop on the lowest lvl toon that can do the TW or if it requires lvl 60?

rugged raven
#

wishwing already for 700k on Draenor lul

#

*bid

tacit owl
#

@rugged raven I sold mine for 750k and someone else did for 1.1 mil yesterday

bright comet
#

can you get the pet more than once per char?

#

it had a blue question mark when I turned it in o-o

flint star
#

We don't know yet because you can only get the Glittering Phoenix Ember once per lockout, and Tarjin won't offer the quest unless you have the Phoenix Ash Talisman in your inventory. That said, the behaviour of the quest is consistent with a repeatable quest.

bright comet
#

ooh ok

hasty latch
#

Just wanted to note if anyone has an alt that can't see Griftah, you can skip the obsidian citadel quests if you have already done them. It took me a while to find that out. ✌️

warped plume
#

just finished the grind on a 2nd character

vale geode
#

cool, so we have confirmation that we can indeed have 3 and that the quest flag is not account-wide.

#

has anyone found an emote this bird does special stuff for? all mine does is sleep

weary trellis
#

Yep, my bird sleep everywhere

thorn sentinel
#

So it turned out to be a pet?

#

Had a feeling it would be that or something called "Waist of Space" that never leaves you bags

hasty latch
#

Are there groups for killing the lava birds? This is rough on a poorly geared alt :\

thorn sentinel
#

Literally a Red or Blue version of this same pet you can get for "Free" as a drop from 2 rares in Forbidden reach!

formal maple
#

Could it be like the falcosaur pets maybe where there might be some quests it can give after maybe certain conditions are met? Or like the infinite whelp in the Elisande fight interaction with her mechanics where it's part of an achievement?

daring scroll
#

Be interesting to see if the crowd sticks around after TW is over.

vale geode
#

why wouldn't they, if they have their embers

daring scroll
#

meant in the more general sense after everyone gets their first turn in, If there will still be a crowed farming it not for the current ember but for the next one.

vale geode
#

if they check the calendar and realize Cata TW is again on May 23rd they will be wise and farm a little here and there

tacit owl
#

I bet it will die off in a week. It's the flavor of the month right now and I think the grind all at once is enough to make a lot of people not want to do it/quit half way through. I am going to farm everything again next weekend so I have it all once TW is up again to see if its re obtainable on one account

vale geode
#

Epic already got a 2nd pet on an alt, so we can have more than 1 on our accounts. Next test is Tues to run the quest completion and see if we flag true or false. False is pretty obvious that we can get more than one with the same toon. Which is probably already the case cause it would suck to make people who (for whatever reason) only have 1 toon on their account have to wait for the next TW

tacit owl
#

cant you only get one ember, pre toon, per TW though?

daring scroll
#

That "per TW" is the part in question.

tacit owl
#

Doesn't time walking cata turn into a different timewalking event on tuesday?

daring scroll
#

yep. So, while we can test for the quest flag, we won't know for sure if we can do the whole grind for a new pet again until the next Cat TW which I believe is May 23.

tacit owl
#

that's what I was asking. I killed the TW fire chicken 3 times to make sure only one ember would drop. I got it on the first kill but not on the second or 3rd

daring scroll
#

We wouldn't see more then one Ember per a char this week because it is raid loot, once a lockout already.

viral flume
#

finally 20 ash

vale geode
#

a false on the quest flag on Tues should indicate that we can grind on the same toon in the next TW, but will the ember drop for us a second time can't be tested until then.

#

that was a tedious grind that jesus

vale geode
#

the 15 smoldering are not much better

daring scroll
#

Still have to do those...

#

Putting it off in case it is as heavily farmed as Un'Goro since I play that char with warmode on 😛

fervent bronze
#

the smoldering is off the firebirds?

#

near obsidium?

vale geode
#

I did mine at Scalecracker Keep, more of them there and easy to kite the flying ones to safe areas.

#

and best place to do the griftah feathers is Tanaris where it's nothing but sand

daring scroll
#

heh, I did the Griftah feathers right around Tarjin, though that was to test to see if the quest would show without having the Talisman yet. Running around on the platform with Griftah was another fun spot to farm them.

vale geode
#

I actually did mine in my garrison. The whole time thinking good gawd Tanaris is where I need to be doing this, I could see those so easy.

daring scroll
#

Best would probably be an enclosed room just large enough and empty. Stand on one side feathers spawn on other, run over to loot new feather spawns on other side. I am assuming they need a minimum distance from the player to spawn as I don't think I have seen one spawn right next to me yet...

i've seen them spawn in adjoining rooms in buildings

vale geode
#

up by the OS, I had only farmed 3 in all the questing, elemental storms, key grinds, only 3 ash

#

Scalecracker Keep was much better, don't forget the cave in the wall guarded by daddy ravens. there are 6 phoenix in that cave

#

it's really more of an alcove than cave

fervent bronze
#

il go check it out this seems like hard work for nothing

#

well not hard just harder lol

tacit owl
#

Same, scalecracker keep was by far a better farming area. There are 3 spots where you can agro at least 4 at a time without any other mobs. You can get a nice rotation in that area too where there is no down time.

vale geode
#

OS only has 3-4 birds that will drop it, all the others are adolescents and won't drop it, all of them at SCK can drop it

#

well guess the hatchlings do drop it, just at a lower rate

#

but it's around a 4% dr

party syncing with a starter account is truly the best method rn with all this traffic for the inert ash and the sacred ash

violet pine
white wind
# violet pine Sorry for my ignorance: how do you do this?

you create a starter edition acct under games and subs, make a toon (its same acct so you can make an allied race to make it easier on yourself), enter chromie time on that toon, open another game window and log onto the toon you're farming on, invite your noob toon into a group, party sync, then go where you wanna farm in CT

Pass lead then party sync! 😛

#

it doesnt matter in my experience

violet pine
#

Jesus, you are geniouses

daring scroll
#

Oh, and food for thought, before you make that new account, use a referral link for it.

#

That way if you feel the urge you can drop a year of game time on it and get all the refer a friend rewards too. Costs a fair bit, but it does work.

Sorry, 6 month, just read it again and the new Recruit a Friend seems to be only 6 months of loot, huh...

#

oh, is that the wrong quest completion? matjz's comment with 72804 comes up as true for me. 72798 comes up as false

rugged raven
#

maybe this quest is repeatable after all

cold fable
#

Tale of the Phoenix is a turn-in, repeatable turn-in never gets flagged, like turning artifacts for rep in the Expedition Camp. This quest might be repeatable.

#

72804 is another quest that gets flagged when you do the turn-in, if this quest flag stays this reset we will have to see the effects next Cata TW (and have someone painfully refarm the ash on that character) to see if the turn-in is still visible

#

if 72804 stays and someone with it can still do the turn-in again next TW then that flag may mean something for the future.

#

The confusing part is that Tale of the Phoenix appears as a golden ! over Tarjin, instead of the usual blue ?.

flint star
#

Tarjin had a blue ? for me when I did the turn-in late Tuesday night.

he had a golden ! for me the first time, then it should be a repeatable turn-in

#

maybe when they fixed the journal they tidy it up a bit

warped plume
#

so, we could wait until may 23rd, or find out today if this is repeatable on the same character or if something changes with the 2nd turn-in.

#

was able to copy my character to the ptr with the quest done. 72804 flags as true. copying the character over reset my lockouts.

daring scroll
#

Well if it reset your lockouts, were you able to loot a second Ember?

warped plume
#

that's why i'm saying we could find out today. but i'd need people on the ptr to quickly kill alys to check

#

I'd gladly do the inert/sacred ash grind again if i could get 9 people to help.

vale geode
#

was a blue ? for me too

warped plume
#

do we have 9 people who'd be willing to help? I alrdy have all the smoldering ash, feathers, sacred ash, and 5 inert

daring scroll
#

Might need to tap the regular secrets channel? I don't do PTR but there might be others there that aren't in this channel that do if it is just for a single raid boss.

cold fable
#

the quest flag 72804 survived reset on US, we will have to see next Cata TW

vale geode
#

at least that's less than 2 months away this round.

#

@warped plume did your alt who got your 2nd wishwing also get the 72804 quest flag?

warped plume
#

i'll check in a sec

#

yep, both my characters showing true for 72804 after reset as well

vale geode
#

I don't remember if anyone checked alts that have not done the quest to see if 72804 is an account-wide quest flag.

cold fable
#

I think I did when I got it, let me double-check

#

my alt doesn't have the quest flagged

warped plume
#

did blizz forget to turn TW Cata off?

hm. the vendor is supposed to be there for a while for turn-ins but this, dunno

yeah it says i can still queue lol

and my lockout reset

anyone on NA want to see if we can get a 2nd ember to drop?

what time is EU's weekly reset?

#

nvm, it's for Mists TW

#

interesting that Cata kicked off this back to back TW event

warped plume
#

i was only able to get 4 people into the group so i wasn't able to see if it'd actually let us into TW FL even though the TP npc is still up

vale geode
#

might need to run our feathered friend through these TW's

#

it's only a couple of hours till EU reset, it might disappear after their reset. But it might be like the Legion one that stayed up.

vale geode
warped plume
#

yeah, i've listed a group to see if i can get 9 ppl.

vale geode
#

did you ask in wow general for volunteers

warped plume
#

I have not

vale geode
#

sigh, now we wait for May 23

warped plume
#

we got a grp but it did not let us queue

vale geode
#

ok, so wishwing will do a timestop animation

flint star
#

It just freezes its animations because it can't fly and sit at the same time.

vale geode
#

I tested that, and it would do it both while I was mounted and not mounted.

#

it would be sleeping and sit up and freeze for a few secs and then face plant back to sleep

flint star
#

I haven't noticed that behaviour yet without something causing it to cycle into flight mode or it not resolving its flight mode before attempting to run an idle animation, but I'll keep an eye open for it.

#

And you're sure you weren't mounted? Because I got it to do that by waiting until it idled; forcing it to cycle into flight mode by mounting up on Otto until it snapped into its frozen animation; and then dismounted so it'd resume its regular animation.

vale geode
#

it just did it while I was in flight form sitting on the ground not in flight

flint star
#

So you were mounted.

vale geode
#

i'm in the druid legion hub in my flight form but sitting on the ground not flying

flint star
#

If you are on any sort of mount, even ground mounts, even on the ground, that model of minipet cycles into its flight mode.

#

Ohuna Companion, Wakyn, Ashenwing, Wishwing Phoenix, etc.

vale geode
#

ok, so went out of flight form and he face planted on the ground sleeping

flint star
#

It freezes animation in a mid-flight pose because that's how the game is resolving conflicting directives on what animation it should be in.

vale geode
#

this bird sleeps too much

flint star
#

They're all narcoleptic.

#

I keep having to resummon them because I stop for one second, they fall asleep, and don't wake up to keep following me.

vale geode
#

yep, I let him cycle through his animations and as soon as he went to sleep I went into flight form and a he did timestop

vale geode
#

the crater is still packed with people

Just gotta say imo it's bad etiquette to kill a phoenix but not kill the feather and leave it to bait other players to clean up your trash.

rrlk5nfb9end7fd4u62l.png
vale geode
#

But if you kill the feather the phoenix you just killed can't rise from it's ashes and be reborn.

daring scroll
#

Just think if Blizz handled it a different way, if you don't kill the feather the reborn phoenix could drop loot. It would also drop a feather to respawn. An unending cycle of loot pinata...those poor birds endlessly slaughtered...

rugged raven
#

Kill it 144 times?

daring scroll
#

oh damn, hadn't even thought about if they had the loot changed based on how many times it respawned...

#

Some crazy possibilities...and some evil trolling if someone kills the feather before the respawn so the whole cycle would have to start over...

rugged raven
#

The Korthia elemental says hi:)

#

(not kill-based but definitely trolly)

vale geode
#

smoldering ash seems to be dropping better, or it drops better for lower lvls, I already have 5 and have only been at it for about 3 hours.

#

just turned lvl 62

#

farming scalecracker keep

vale geode
#

yep, better drop rates at lvl 62, already at 10

formal maple
#

Btw have we figured out if u can get the ember more than once on different alts? I saw some discussions earlier but all i got is confused.

#

Or is it once per account sorta thing

#

I know the TW is over at this point but i just finished farming out the other stuff and 700k sounds like decent cash if you can farm it out again when it's cheaper

vale geode
daring scroll
#

I believe it was getting the pet more then once on the same char that was in question? I know someone was trying to get another Alysrazor run going while TW was still active but don't remember seeing if they were successful.

vale geode
#

nvm, I'm on an alt

daring scroll
#

Lol.

vale geode
#

we were not successful, it gave an error listing everyone in raid individually saying we don't meet the requirements.

daring scroll
#

ah

vale geode
#

this was after Cata TW was over but the Cata TW que vendor was still up with the que option.

kind willow
#

There's a known bug with the cinder for the TW token quest not dropping from Ragnaros and people having to open GM tickets to receive it. Perhaps they left the questgiver up for a short time to give people chance to wait for GM responses and hand in.

rugged raven

The questgiver being up for the next day is normal, not so much the queues tho 😄

Not sure if im more grateful of the pet or the bagspaces i desperately needed back! 😂

I got really lucky today and got 5 smoldering ashes drop within 15 mins at the slagmire. This last week ive been lucky to get 1 per hour so this was a really nice surprise today. Anyone else had an increase in drop rate?

yeah had a rough go at it today farmed for about 2 hours got 0 at Scalekracker Keep. ugg gonna be a long grind

warped plume

If you have a tank spec avail on what you're playing, you can easily farm up 8-15 in 1 hour. the method i used to farming 200 of them was 10 runs of neltharus an hour, doing the right side wing with all the phoenixes in 1 pull (takes 2-3min per run). it's around 20-25 phoenixes in 1 pull.

#

was able to do it even on a 340 tank as long as the difficulty was on normal

rugged raven
#

No spec will deal with the crowded Un'goro unfortunately.

#

and I tried to Chromie Time myself without an extra account, no bueno 😂

warped plume
#

yeah unfortunately. just gotta pray someone lists a group with it being a dead/empty server

kind willow

yeah, it's only really meant for tanks to do for those who have a tank spec avail to their class.

the mage had no issues at scalecraker, had a route where I was only on the ground for 3- phoenix, fly into the ones in the air and they will follow you to the cliffs

rugged raven

Isn't there a group of phoenixes you kill for the tuskarr quest southwest of scalecracker?

#

Carrion Phoenix

@warped plume thanks for the tip DH is the one I mainly play and have farmed other stuff on so that works. as for @kind willow thanks as well for the spot. I have killed so many over time (Rep Farming in that area and only have 1.... Ugg love my bad RNG) I have terrible luck farming stuff like this in open world be it rare drops or mats/items like this. However have had decent luck with mount drops like Ashes, Invincible, Baron in Stratholme. I got alot of those rather quickly. I guess its ok in the end.

To be fair.... We dont know that yet. It could eventually lead to something else where its required that you have either the Necklace from Zek or that you need the Pet itself to complete something. so far the only thing we know is the pet. could be more already in game that we have not found or could be added later with this requirement being the first step in the totality of it.

vale geode
#

is anyone hanging onto a Glittering Phoenix Ember till next TW to see if the raid will drop another one if you have one in your bags?

spare copper
#

I have one on multiple toons. I didnt plan on holding them but farming had been so brutal for the other parts since solve that I have not done it so if I still have them in there I can test.

vale geode
#

I think it's only relevance would be for pet farmers. If you can only have 1 in inventory at a time then it means you better do the grind and turn in before next TW or be sol that round.

spare copper
#

right. worth finding out at the least for others here that will farm it. my guess is it wont allow it but maybe I can see if I run it and dont get one with it in bags. but then turn it in if i can get one then. would link it to per TW 1 can drop possibly.

vale geode
#

if a 2nd one does drop it will also let us know if the quest is a 1-time quest for each TW.

spare copper
#

yep

rugged raven
#

I still have one but that's more my unwillingness to farm Inert. I suppose I can always copy this to PTR, finding the group however… 😛

I have one too I plan on hanging onto

received a 2nd glittering phoenix ember on the same character

hmm

#

are we sure this was repeatable?

#

I don't have the option for a 2nd turn-in

rugged raven
#

Thank you for your sacrifice, may your fire lore shine brighter than the Fyrakk's flames 🫡

#

Does /run print(C_QuestLog.IsQuestFlaggedCompleted(72798)) say true?

warped plume
#

we did have a quest flag when handing in the first tales of the phoenix quest. I don't have the pet on me since I sold it, unless the pet is a requirement for a 2nd turn-in? otherwise, why can I buy the items again??

#

i'll check

#

false

rugged raven
#

monkaS that's odd. Are you in the middle of his questlines? maybe this interferes?

warped plume
#

it didn't for the first turn-in for anyone. I just did the one quest just to make sure it's not bugging out. still no tales of the phoenix 2nd turn-in

#

going to try & relog

#

nope still no 2nd option for the turn-in

image.png
rugged raven
#

this is weird, the ID I provided is this very quest

warped plume
#

72804 which matjz said got flagged for the turn-in is still true for me

cold fable
#

so that flag is to prevent you from doing the turn-in again

#

strange way of doing stuff

warped plume
#

well that sucks

cold fable
#

wait, you have 186 smoldering phoenix ashes? you can scratch phoenix genocide from your to-do list

warped plume
#

yeah i farmed up 200 before we found it

vale geode
#

So 1 pet per toon! @ionic cobalt

#

And selling the pet does not reset the quest flag.

ionic cobalt
#

now question is is it one pet per account

graceful moon

per toon

vale geode

I still have an ember on am alt, still gonna check and see if it will drop with 1 in your bag when I log in tonight.

Guys, I've killed at least 100 Scorchling Elementals in Un'Goro by now. I have gotten 0 ashes?! I read and re-read the guide and there seems to be no pre-requisite?

#

Am I supposed to do something before I get these to drop?

daring scroll
#

Well...if you are killing Scorch'L'ing Elementals, then your problem is you are killing the wrong ones.

inner marsh

typo

#

sheesh

daring scroll
#

Scorchlings are actually a mob in the game, so just making sure

inner marsh
#

this drop rate is absolutely mental

#

or I am just incredibly unlucky

daring scroll
#

It can be horrific, though from what I read they added it to the drop table of the other elemental there too.

inner marsh

I just got 1

after 55mins

I got 1

So it is easier now then it used to be

I am killing the Blazes too

went back to Val to turn WM on, completely uncontested

each mob is mine

Then yeah, get a good route going and settle in for the long haul.

Then be thankful that both types of mobs drop the ash now.

While others bragged about finishing in a few hours.

at the current rate

I'll need 20hrs

are the other parts of the grind easier?

I have like three smoldering ashes in my bag rn

All the painfull grinds can be done at any time, reccommend doing them early and spacing it out to not go crazy, then you can grab the Ember next TW when you get the chance.

there is no phoenix mount?

all for a pet?

Yep, all for a pet

don't make fun of pets. you can do stuff in the world with them. a mount is mostly a +1 you'll use like 20 max.

though when it comes to pets, the % wouldn't be way off. this little cutie is a bit too generic for such a grind!'

did a little tiny bit of testing on the 10.1.5 ptr with the updated drops, didn't get a full 20 for a pet but I did get 10 inert phoenix ash in 20minutes with the new change.

i really wish they would let us que for timewalking raids...i feel like ill never get this pet bc of how hard it is to get a group

tacit owl
#

You kinda can, they are just listed under the custom option. It's usually not hard to find a group, you just need to type in firelands or Alysrazor under the custom tab during that timewalking event.

daring scroll
#

You can always start your own as well, just remember to be clear that you are just after Alysrazor. It would be quite rude to let people think you are doing a full run only to drop after the one boss.

harsh owl
#

Ive never done it period, so i wouldnt be comfortable crating a group. I know you can find groups, but it would just be simpler if i could que, that way im not rejected for any reason.

daring scroll
#

Timewalking raids are not like raidfinder. Difficulty wise they can be far more demanding. Also, being able to queue would absolutely suck as you would likely be tossed in as a backfill after Alysrazor with all the people that would queue for the raid then leave after that fight. Using the group finder and setting up a group just for Alysrazor is far more straight forward and far less time consuming.

vale geode
daring scroll
#

Yeah...but then it would ruin the clue. 😛 They might also have to change the vendor value then? Isn't it higher then the typical loot if running it as a legacy raid?

Does the quest show as completed? If so, maybe make a ticket? Or check stable master if they have that pet (though I severely doubt it because stable master pets can't be traded)
