Yeah the dungeon has, not outside

raw violet
#

yeah - fd - full duration fd - diff pets - solo pet - no pet

somber verge
#

fd till you die in front of it? or was that removed on rtail? šŸ˜›

grim sequoia
#

They removed it killing you

somber verge
#

f :<

raw violet
#

brought mobs out and had pet actually die - made sure new red lightning eel dying out there wasnt it too -

#

ive been running with a cloudrook since beta in there

#

only thing id say hasnt maybe been done is 4 hunters with them going in and getting them in the empty nests

#

you probably just have to release them in a certain order though - thats my bet lol

#

one of the very few things ive not seen in here with a concrete this combo has been done - otherwise its probbly been done - look in doc getting big :D

#

pin has doc i think

#

i gotta walk doggo though and some stuffs - gl everyone!!! bbl

tacit shard
#

I also need a walk, meanwhile I'm thinking about what else we could try šŸ¤”

glacial moss
#

we should ask for a clue XD

balmy kettle
#

I imagine one of us is a BM hunter, so we've at least had one of those attempting the simple stuff just in case it can only be done on the exact type of toon that can obtain the pet

tribal arch
grim sequoia
#

It was tried yeah

#

I'm BM Hunter

paper merlin
#

was the play dead pet mourned/cry/all the actions?

grim sequoia
#

That I don't know

lyric spindle
#

I am a BM hunter too šŸ‘‹

#

Any hunters tried drinking cinderbrew and getting drunk to tame? The info on his masters memorial said he loved cinderbrew and gems.

reef stratus
#

I'm going through the dungeon using flare everywhere, seeing if that makes anything show up

lyric spindle
reef stratus
lyric spindle
#

We keep flaring everything 🤣

#

ā€œJust one hidden object…pleaseā€

floral prawn
#

So people have tried taming while drunk?

reef stratus
#

That one room with the cinderbrew spill keeps grabbing my attention, but there is nothing there

grim sequoia
#

Try flaring the cliffs while not inside the dungeon? It'll be awhile before I can test

grim sequoia

#

I see in the list someone listed "Going with an aerthen hunter" did they actully did it. J

Just asking, I am leveling an Earthern.

lyric spindle
#

Yeah they have tried literally everywhere

#

Every corner

#

We need to figure out why she / he is mourning

#

That’s where our answer lies

floral prawn
#

Would be strange to make it a dark iron race only, but then again it would force people to do the quest line.

balmy kettle
#

be dark iron to tame a stormrook?

floral prawn
#

Dark iron dwarf hunter try yet ?

lyric spindle
#

Something tells me he’s not going to be too upset about us being drunk haha

gray ruin
#

sorry, not the dark iron, the new Dwarf race

grim sequoia
#

They're not gonna racially restrict it I don't think anyway

paper merlin
#

It wont have anything to do with race, because then you will have to pay to race change.

lyric spindle
#

It won’t be restricted to race

paper merlin
#

I highly doubt it will need another class other then what hunter have in our toolkit or something we can bring.

#

Voidscarred Krokul is a npc in Argus, people didn't know where to get the void-scarred hammer from. Anyone see if it drops from killing them?

lyric spindle
#

And I think professions can be scrapped too. Unless you can buy the item from the AH

floral prawn
#

Maybe I'll kill some Voidscarred Krokul to see if the hammer drops from them.

balmy kettle
#

if the hammer is specifically an earthen stormrider's, why would it be on krokul

floral prawn
#

Same name as the npc

#

Without the -

pallid prism
#

does a stormrook always flyout of the centre, after killing Kyrioss? can't say I've seen it before

tribal arch
#

does anyone have Unborn Val'kyr battle pet btw?

grim sequoia
floral prawn
#

Have anyone tried using magical pet biscuits or the Kibler bit hunter pet food from cata on it? Just trying to think of everything.

tribal arch
# grim sequoia Ah

because couple things, it's "undead" and "unborn" like the unborn stormrook, plus someone mentioned "noble man" - Val'kyr are considered "unborn" until they vanquish a creature of high nobility.

astral ridge
#

wonder if that exploit of exiting the birb to get to the bombers is getting fixed during maint

tribal arch
#

who knows if its an exploit? that might be part of the puzzle

grim sequoia
#

Oh whoops I replied to the wrong thing

floral prawn
#

The birds rider do we have any idea where his body went? It's a lord of the rings character. Forgot how he died in lotr book but have we checked the ocean floor?

lyric spindle
#

Aradran’s rider?

floral prawn
#

Yeah

astral ridge
lyric spindle
# floral prawn Yeah

We aren’t 100% sure on who his rider is. We are only making assumptions on the statue at Mourning Rise

grim sequoia
#

I checked the ocean floor where he's circling

floral prawn
#

Any under water caves in the area?

grim sequoia
#

Sadly no

astral ridge
rapid briar
#

I did a little visualization of the layout of the nests on the way down. All but the bottom have 4 nests in NE, NW, SE, SW. Bottom has 6; E,NE,N,NW,W - and the stormling in S. There are two variations of empty nests - ones that are dim and ones that are lit.

Rows 2 and 3 are mirror images, flipped horizontally. I haven't been able to figure any pattern here. Just thought it was notable how the bottom is different, the stormling is all on its own, and I hadn't seen anyone mention the dim / lit empty nests.

lyric spindle
#

It’s also hard to work out if we need to complete the dungeon in full…or do we only need to kill the first boss in order to trigger it. Once we figure out the solution

lyric spindle
grim sequoia
#

I'm curious if you even do the tame inside the dungeon, or if maybe Aradan's existence inside is a clue to it's location

floral prawn
#

Malach (named fully Malach Aradan) was an Edain Man of the House of Marach in the First Age. His house name was Aradan, he loved gems and alcohol. From the books

#

The memorial in game said his rider loved cinderbrew and gems

raw violet
#

That’s dope - those diagrams / maps - Ty Ty

floral prawn
#

Is what I was referring to

lyric spindle
#

I typed this pattern up earlier.

#

@rapid briar

neat olive
#

can't find anything

rapid briar
grim sequoia
#

As far as I can tell. Every earthen loves gems and cinderbrew

raw violet
#

Sounds like we found possible inspiration for name at least lol

astral ridge
rapid briar
#

0 - Empty and Dark, 1 - Empty and Light, 2- Stormrook, 3- Stormling

raw violet
#

I’m so sold,on it being with the rooks though lol

astral ridge
raw violet
#

If it wasn’t a puzzle why isn’t it all the same???

lyric spindle
astral ridge

#

Has anyone tried just calling for Aradan at the location he flies in the dungeon but were that would be in the overworld?

raw violet
#

Too much going on with them to be flavor 90% of people would never even notice

rapid briar
analog drift
#

I tried out stuff yesterday with the order of the rooks being released, wasn't successsful. Trying to figure out if there's relevance to the dark/lit/occupied nests

lyric spindle
analog drift
#

They all face counterclockwise except the bottom

formal badger
pallid nebula
astral vale
analog drift
#

Bottom rook's directions are (left=towards center, center=towards baby, baby= toward center/topright/inbtwn, topright=right)

#

Also tried noting the locations of blue feathers through out the area

#

The feathers you grab are also in an odd arrangement

#

not symmetrical the way the rooks you ride are sitting, kinda odd

balmy kettle
raw violet
#

You’d think all the times I fling myself off the cliff and tried to bursting shot him he would respond somehow

#

Anyone try beer goggles in the brewery?

raw violet
#

I’m picturing Ion walking around confused Monday when he looks at dungeon run metrics and rookery has been run a million times more than the most popular mythic dungeon - -

floral prawn
#

What race was the Dev who sent a screenshot of him tamed in his stable?

tribal arch
#

night elf

raw violet
#

Kitchen utensil

balmy mica
rough sentinel
pallid nebula
#

I would Imagine of he is always spawned in outside and his location in the dungeon is just a hint Flare and/or track hidden would be enough to find him as a hunter

Just had the idea if you call for him in say or yell outside the dungeon but in his location that might make him spawn outside, it's just a silly idea tho since I'm starting to run out of them

raw violet
#

Pics are irrelevant

balmy kettle
#

if any race mattered it would be earthen, and that's already been investigated

floral prawn
#

Yeah good that rules out the race specific

lyric spindle
#

It’s weird that N, E, S and W all have x3 no nests

analog drift
#

I'm pretty sure the top one has no dark nests

#

2 lit, 2 stormrook

raw violet
#

It almost looks like how light would come down into the tunnel - except for the two darks all the wayy on the right - they be oddish

tribal arch

floral prawn
#

For the epic edition, you get a choice of a stormrook pet I believe. There's 4 different colors to choose. Would you need 4 people with different colors to be able to interact with the nests? Seems highly unlikely but just thinking of different scenarios.

raw violet
#

Shouldn’t require paywall

balmy kettle
#

it's been tried, doubtful they will lock it behind paying more for the xpac

raw violet
#

Only way I could see if the first tame uses it and the. Unlocks for everyone else to not need

mellow zephyr
astral ridge
raw violet
#

But yeah pets and mounts and looking like kyrios has yielded nothing

#

And the transmog and title - nada

paper merlin
#

What if we need to put candles in the empty nests?

raw violet
#

Multiple toons have tried that was any easy one to check off the list

tribal arch
#

seems a bit insane

analog drift
raw violet
#

The only thing noteworthy about that stuff was it was disabled throughout the beta - was removed from game if you managed to copy over your account data which I did.

lyric spindle
#

Thank god it’s only the first boss…imagine if it was the last one every single time

raw violet
#

So that was some of the first stuff us long timers tried when it went live and we could finally try the collectors stuff out

floral prawn
#

Alright that rules that out. Has anyone tried using the Essence Swapper
from legion or the magical pet mirror toy on it?

raw violet
#

I’ve mentioned to try it - don’t recall any responses

#

I did start using the spyglass in there though lol

astral ridge

#

Also, you can land on the ledges between the rooks and not free them.

raw violet
#

You would have 5 chances potentially if it doesn’t require freeing the rooks somehow

analog drift
raw violet
#

Like if you had to feather stomp certain non rook platforms in order

pallid prism
#

You can get to the bottom without even going down there

raw violet
#

To light them up?

pallid prism
#

kill boss, use the stormrook beacon, then fly back over

raw violet
#

I’ve only done that like once and maybe one or two platforms

astral ridge
#

you can get to the bottom without using a single feather stomp and avoiding the orbs

raw violet
#

Yup

#

Just disengage at bottom

pallid prism
#

the feather buff is only active inside the 'hole' isn't it

astral ridge
#

you don't get the Stormrook Favor buff if you do that, and you don't get the Favor if you use the feather and it does not free a birb

raw violet
#

Which I thought could always be part of- cause we can do that - and have other ways to slow fall

analog drift
#

Well there's one dark one on level 2 and 3 downward, then 2 on the bottom, so it's just which order to land? Or avoid using stomp at all?

pallid prism
#

does the trinket have the same effect as the feathe?

analog drift
#

Nope

astral ridge
raw violet
#

It’s similar though - just doesn’t do anything or have as good reach mechanic

hollow pecan
#

ngl the orbs being there is just weird to me like, I don't see why they should be there from a dungeon layout perspective?

quick oasis
#

Did anyone try this yet?

analog drift
#

You can feather stomp to the top and it disappears too. Only works in the nest area itself

gray ruin
analog drift
astral ridge
hollow pecan
quick oasis
#

Can we get a group together to give it a go? I’m on EU

raw violet
#

What’s the second boss doing when he flies in anyways - throwing the balls and shutting the hole closed with storm shit - what’s the balls - are those the rooks and orbs - is it just the spell for the storm wall - what’s going on there lol

brazen socket
#

the orbs are still there after freeing the birds, so the orbs might be part of the puzzle

analog drift
#

Orbs are at different heights and are on sides of each chained rook in the middle they form a sort of line between the ones across form each other

#

Height goes (lvl 2 SW, lvl 2 NE, lvl3 NW, lvl4 SE)

astral ridge
#

has anyone tried to stealth in and jump in the hole without triggering the rider's dialogue?

analog drift
#

I played around with this extensively yesterday

raw violet
#

Yea - can’t stealth in

#

Although I don’t rmbr if I tried invis pot or camo or both lol

astral ridge
analog drift
#

server's up if you didn't know. Go try things!!

hollow pecan
raw violet
#

Also similar to second boss is what I thought I observed with stealthing

#

I’m gonna get my delves out of the way and then mess with the rooks stuff

#

Oh and I guess we can take throne of thunder off the list in the doc - was pretty easy to check out as far as exploration - so tiny lol

#

And on the outside of rookery side of things I still want to explore new raid a little - so much real estate

#

And void/shadow in some spots

#

And I feel like one of the first 3 bosses that are in lfr had dark or void and explorable areas - so would fit with availability of tame and first blue post

#

But I’m team rook puzzle right now lol :D

lyric spindle
#

Sorry catching up on messages. I was doing my own visualisation/ pattern. Thanks for the awesome maps!

balmy kettle
#

The rook thing is at least grounded in lore, even if it is a little complicated. i dont think we're gonna find the solution somewhere else in the world just because "storm" can be associated to it

raw violet
#

At least we have good maps and pics of the dungeon and rook hole - gg and thanks gain to all those that produced!

tacit shard
#

I'm back, I just remembered that I also saw some earthen stuff in the spider zone, but only a few, probably stolen wears

lyric spindle
#

So according to this the light and dark nests alternate in sequence each layer.

So if the sequence were to continue (which it doesn’t) it would realistically have the light and dark at the bottom of the map

floral prawn
#

I'm kinda low level and haven't done all the quests but there's a waterfall outside the entrance to the brewery with a locked gate. Has anyone unlocked this gate that takes you under the brewery?

raw violet
#

Been brought up

balmy kettle
#

might be mislabed like the one in dornogal

raw violet
#

Has to do with earthen starting maybe?

#

There’s also locked doors and stuff like that all over the zones maybe future content - world quest involved - or a secret ?

balmy kettle
#

it's blocked by a giant railcart with a huge green rock on it, i dunno if they'd make that the intended thoroughfare

balmy kettle
#

but i cant open it even on the class that can open things it isnt meant to

raw violet
#

The meadery is fair game it appears potentially that’s all I know

rapid briar
#

Added the orbs, body and head direction, and the feathers. Orbs are in a straight line ~45 degrees, Floor 1's and 2's are mirror images. I put their position on all four images.

analog drift
#

The top level has no dark roosts

raw violet
#

And mourning rise and Dhar oztan - and the three shields northern islands

formal badger
raw violet
#

Also maybe release rooks to form a pattern by making platforms dark instead of getting ones light - guess that would be the thing to do unless we put candles in the dark ones

#

Big spider - oh in meadery?

#

I haven’t done much in meadery myself

#

If there’s an obscure mob in there though I’d deftly go kill it to put on the list lol - but I’m team rook puzzle right now so I gotta stay focused :D

formal badger
astral ridge
wooden shadow
#

is there any specific emote you can do that has something to do with storms ? maybe try that one

lyric spindle
rapid briar
hollow pecan
#

AH, perfect thank you ā¤ļø

raw violet
#

I feel like if everyone in discord here just focused on the dungeon for a day and mostly rook stuff or clearing with the buff - I’d say we will know wether or not we need to bring something in lol - just I guess wondering how many people are messing with this and how many are scattered all over kindom come

lyric spindle
#

So does the top layer have no dark nests? Just want to confirm. I have been looking at too many

sacred dove
#

if it is something simple then i think its probably also something hard, because i think we've tried everything that is both simple and easy. something involving speedrunning the dungeon is what comes to mind there. I tried beating the ungeon with the rook's favour buff active earlier but i cleare all the trash up to the final boss before going back and getting the buff in order to do that. I'm not sure if anyone has tried doing it "honestly", or how hard it would be.

I also don't think its safe to think it will be doable solo considering there have been hunter pets in the past that have been locked behind content requiring multiple players.

raw violet
#

Oh in raid - hmm - probably flavor or drops something - I’ve not read a thing about spiders pertaining to rooks though so you got me

formal badger
#

I spent 10 hrs throughout last night all over the isle of dorn and cinderbrew mead was I’m lost hope

raw violet
#

There’s usually a link for why your farming an item

formal badger
#

Just odd they have him tucked away on the right side as you go up to third boss in raid

lusty locust
#

I was thinking something similar, like ya need at least two players so you can kill the bosses or three of them, the first, the void erthen who's enslaved them and the last with the buff, (gotta pause, go back and get buffs as needed) then once last is done, one person teleports out to get to the beginning and get buff again, then second does it, or dies whatever,.

raw violet
#

Like kobolds are a good fit cause they are at mourning rise removing relevant rook items and stuff - in other areas too- so if they dropped something it wouldn’t be super surprising

astral ridge
raw violet
#

Ooooh

formal badger
#

There is the kobold cave at mourning rise but only object in there that you can interact with is moldy cheese

raw violet
#

Yeah. That frickin moldy cheese lol

#

Confused the shit out of me during beta

balmy kettle
#

it will likely come up as "maybe this is something" for years to come

formal badger
#

So many ā€œflavorā€ interactables

lyric spindle
#

So since the top layer has two light nests, it makes sense for the final one to have two dark. Even though it isn’t following the sequence.

So that is the platform we need to work on

raw violet
#

I’m thinking the birbs are the puzzle - if it was an item or something outside we probably actually would have solved it by now lol

#

We’ve had way more people looking around outside for just anything anyways sans Aradan - probably way less time spent on those birds and releasing order and stuff than anything else

lusty locust
#

well getting drunk and reading bagdur's sign doesn't help. sads

raw violet
#

I’m just desperate rambling mode now - don’t mind me

balmy kettle
hollow pecan
#

I'm 100% sure we can also disregard any racial locks and the pre-order deluxe edition bonuses, Blizz wouldn't use stuff you have to pay for to get.

raw violet
#

lol

#

Yeah I know - I’ll tell you what - first thing I woke up and starting reading where I left off (ā€˜the only way to read secret discord pshh) and when I saw someone posted the pebble meme or whtvr my eye started twitching lol

lyric spindle
#

I’m sold on it being the last platform and we need to release the stormrooks in a certain order to trigger the correct pattern.

And notice how the Stormling overlooks all of them?

lusty locust
#

we cna give it a try

raw violet
#

I just saw those 4 damned white dots and reacted accordingly

sacred dove
#

i feel like people have probably spent more time inside the dungeon than outside it but i could certainly be wrong

#

lots of release orders listed on the page too

#

if the solution is simple then i don't imagine the answer involves bringing in anything from outside though

astral ridge
raw violet
#

Which would also imply if the player knew he was talking to,a secrets person - that it doesn’t involve normal,secret stuffs and would mean to me it’s more like;y - yeah - I figured out a certain order and the baby bird flew to Aradan all of a sudden

#

And if it is an order thing - looking from the outside - it’s a small contained puzzle - way easier than elaborate item puzzle

astral ridge
#

if the order is a counterclockwise descent, that's something that could easily be accidently done.

sacred dove
#

how many combinations are there i'm not good at math

raw violet
#

I think I’m convinced though it’s either a challenge tame - so solo and possibly dependent on certain criteria or it’s these birds here with buff and shadow orbs being involved potentially-

astral ridge
#

now if we have to swoop up and down like the cloudrooks do, then that's a puzzle

raw violet
#

But I’m pretty certain it’s one of those two things now.

#

Unless the void hammer is somewhere - I’m throwing away all my spoons right now and only using forks from now on - pfft

balmy kettle
#

til we see it in game i doubt it's gonna help us, at least all the stuff your talking about is present

#

would be a neat lil puzzle

raw violet
#

Exactly

#

My bet is on birbs and we have it done by today

balmy kettle
#

if we're still gonna think on the more complex angles, at the very least we gotta ground it in what we have in the game and not what we find in the uncatagorized spells section of WoWhead

raw violet
#

Plus until you have cool diagrams and overhead shots and colors and stuff - you don’t have a good discord secret - so now that everything is covered

#

Let’s do this!

lyric spindle
#

100% šŸ’Ŗ

tacit shard
lusty locust
#

Okay i've killed Kyrioss. gunna try that suggested release pattern

lyric spindle
teal prism
#

Just something totally unrelated and nothing to do with anything, but:
Aradan backwards is "nadara" which in spanish is the form of the verb "nadar" (to swim) in the imperfect subjunctive tense and is used to express a future uncertain or hypothetical action.

lusty locust
#

tho I'm gunna need a bit more info on which direction to start with

sacred dove
balmy kettle
lusty locust
#

which direction should I face first ? start top row and go counter clock wise starting with which?

analog drift
#

I've done counter clockwise a couple of times

#

I've done facing the directions the rooks are facing, though bottom doesn't have a ton of logic there

#

I just did landing in the dark nests and releasing only baby

#

nothing

lyric spindle
#

If the patterns were continuing in sequence. The dark nests should be next to the Stormling. And zero nests next to the Stormrooks.

But because puzzles make things difficult- it is indeed not like this lol

raw violet
#

Maybe one more deep thoughts jack handy quote would do also - "If you ever catch on fire, try to avoid seeing yourself in the mirror, because I bet that's what REALLY throws you into a panic." -

lusty locust
#

has any one done the order of the feathers near the roosts?

raw violet
#

See this seems promising - if there’s so many combos - then now at least we have possible references

sacred dove
#

Releasing only the rooks that had feathers in front of them. Preferably in order if possible (1 feather in front first, 2 in front second)

lusty locust
#

i see one roost hs one feather, another has two

sacred dove
#

this appears in the pinned document

lusty locust
#

oh it has been done?

raw violet
#

The feather amounts - the rooks facing - the state of platforms - rook,no rook, rook facing, with armor without armor

astral ridge
sacred dove
#

Freed according to the number of feathers, so babyrook first the 2 with armor and then the others with 1 feather. Lastly the one with 2 feathers (0-1-2) also tried the opposite (2-1-0)

#

this also appears

raw violet
#

Seems easier to point to rook puzzle than anything else if you ask me

lusty locust
#

okay well I don't need to repeat that if it's been tried before :D

lyric spindle
#

So now we just need to work out the order to release them in…and do we release all or just some? That’s going to be the hard part

tribal arch
#

i've been trying different combos too, nothing yet but I just dont see how this could be it, you get 1 chance at freeing rooks man

#

surely they wouldnt be as cruel as to make you refarm the dungeon each time to work this out

#

the buff actually does a decent chunk of damage so probably just helps the key imo, but I'll keep trying

lusty locust
#

well third level doesn't have a three feather grouping on it so that's def not it

tribal arch
#

5x people with that buff = easier key

astral ridge
lusty locust
#

I've done just releasing the baby no dice

tribal arch
#

tried releasing only the stormling

raw violet
#

I mean - there have been buffs like this before like the container you click in DF dungeon at start to get different buffs but it could just be an added bonus to part of the puzzle that you can use sure

analog drift
#

Maybe it's like mist of tirna, which one is the different one?

lusty locust
#

have we done specific feather to line up with where the baby is?

raw violet
#

I don’t think that cause there’s a useful buff doesn’t mean it’s not part of something else - there’s more rooks than needed to get the buff for mythic - unless they are being kind for wiping and you can grab it again - so 5 times - why not let the buff like previous buffs be taken countless times?

#

Seems deftly more than this is just a buff for helping do the dungeon regardless of difficulty it’s run at

lusty locust
#

guess there aren't enough feathers for that to work. bah

lyric spindle
raw violet
#

BRB - Sammy wants to play some soccer lol

lusty locust
#

have we done go through all teh balls and then release just the baby ?

sacred dove
#

i'm sure a lot of people have tried only releasing the baby and a lot of people have tried hitting all the balls, but i don't know if anyone has tried both in one run

lusty locust
#

bah hitting all of them is going to be challenging

hollow pecan
#

So bounce every orb and then leap to the baby?

lusty locust
#

I can't get to all of them. and for some reason disengage always seens me forward instead of back if I have the feather buff

#

have two more tries :p

tribal arch
#

yea i noticed that disenage makes you go fowrad down there

#

weird right?

eternal frigate
#

Very...

tacit shard
#

but I could be wrong

raw violet
#

Yeah - that buff makes you go forward - which is actually easier right - so just adjust and use accordingly

lusty locust
#

well I couldn't manage to get all the balls in one go and still hop on the chick. gunna have to redo

raw violet
#

In follower - the npcs just spawn at bottom? I don’t remember - they don’t do anything or float down right?

#

I guess I should just keep doing it all solo in case to have our bases covered

keen plover
#

I looked outside the instanced version of the rookery too. Mostly in the spot that Aradan circles around. Nothing!

raw violet
#

Solo is probably faster anyways since you can skip so much stuff

astral ridge
#

this pattern follows the direction of the heads facing and frees all the birds with one feather
notice the head direction change going from 7 to 8 to 9 to baby
Also notice that going from 6 to 7 skips a corner, but there are no birds to free there cause they were already freed.

raw violet
#

Ok so

lusty locust
#

goovy.

astral ridge
#

don't hit any orbs

lusty locust
#

should I try that instead of the orbs?

raw violet
#

Do the balls impede that order- thus making it harder and giving a reason for them to be there

lusty locust
#

that does seem easier

Cause - they just seem pointless to me if there just there to impede you from falling down - too easy to not hit

#

But if there’s an order to things and they make it harder to do that order - that seems to give more reason to there exsistance - certainly within this puzzle box - unless there is no puzzle box here - but there is

#

Why else can we have such interesting pics above

lyric spindle
#

It would make sense to have to release all of them in 5 minutes and not just 1-3 of them

raw violet
#

That’s a thing - that’s not dressing or for show - no way right?

or is the image just not rotated?

Hey, everything is worth a try

lusty locust

okay i'm ready to fleather power here heh

#

so if I'm reading it correctly it's the first two on floor one?

astral ridge
lusty locust
#

then diagonals on floor two?

astral ridge
#

that pattern takes you up and down but always freeing the next one in a counterclockwise pattern, until you get to the bottom and change to clockwise.
Maybe it will work

noticed something odd as I mentioned was looking at - stonevault for the void speaker eirich specifically as its voidy and an earthern. I came across something odd

#

it's ONLY drops in heroic and is NOT in the aventure guide

#

and only 0.5% people dropped it (17 our of 3.7k running wowhead uploads)

hollow pecan
tribal arch
#

the other items are all like 15%+

#

anyone loot this ring? seems odd its only heroic, not in the journal and such a low drop rate

lyric spindle
#

These diagrams are sooo helpful. And it makes sense to have the final birb facing the stormling our final one

hollow pecan
#

Is it even in the loot table for hunters?

lyric spindle
#

But do we re- release the stormling too or leave him?

hollow pecan
#

I'd say try both?

tribal arch
#

and nothing comes up

#

wowhead says its specically a heroic drop only

#

which is very odd too

So, I re-made this video for my bar manager Lori, at Willie's Wetspot Bar in Smyrna, Tennessee. This was her favorite song. The original was a live performance with Dick Clark. The audio was poor quality.

I'm a video DJ, so when I was remastering the track and video together, I found that the original performance was lac...

Still trying stuff

unless I didn't get the order right.

balmy kettle

nothing concrete, just a focus on the possibility that the jump-down after the 1st boss has a puzzle attached to it

lyric spindle
raw violet

I mean - in a party of hunters - this isn’t like some aquatic dancing thing where we slowly float down in a corkscrew shooting off flares at dark platforms and stomping on birds lol

lusty locust

was really hoping that was it. sads

i was trying to find a better 'road to nowhere' gif but they aren't great

that gif was hurting my head

maybe some one go the opposite way?

tribal arch
#

gotta be a stormrider to bond with a rook right

fervent lily
#

Anyone realize in Nerubar palace there is a webbed "training dummy" you can free and a stormrider pops out, thanks you and hearthstones somewhere? Anyone know where?

lyric spindle
#

Time for me to head off to sleep! Goodnight all and good luck!

balmy kettle
tribal arch
#

perhaps but it specically states stormrider

#

I was a bit cheeky too the devs hunter had several items from stonevault, all blue items, and 1 green ring

#

sus

balmy kettle
#

stormrider is one of the pasts you can select for your earthen during the starting questline, FWIW

tribal arch
#

the ring also seems to have its own icon too, odd for a ring too, usually they are shared/reused

#

just a bit sus

raw violet
#

Yeah - about rider getting released - if your not into the rook aspect - I’d be maybe searching new raid - there’s a lot of area inside to explore and has some possibly related stuff - was released right b4 blue post - and the potential toon that tamed it appeared to be a raider and probably had just raided that day or night before - my observations related the raid so far

tacit shard
raw violet
#

Think I’m gonna focus on rook releasing and then give up until an lead pops up lol

astral ridge
tacit shard
#

That's why I was already rummaging around there, I couldn't find anything,

lusty locust
#

maybe try going clockwise on that graphic

raw violet
#

Going on two months myself messing with this - need a break

tacit shard
#

but you are welcome to have another look

raw violet
#

But to me rooks are enticing lol

lusty locust
#

heh well some one go clock wise since I did counter. :D just so we can sweep it off the table heh

raw violet
#

I. See a few routes I want to try looking at these pics - yummie

astral ridge
raw violet
#

I’ve probably spent the least amount of time in that area actuallyy - usually just try a couple things going down -been focused on solo clearing and mob aspects

astral ridge
raw violet
#

Keeping the buff reserved for killing the bosses and certain mobs - spending time in there will be different for sure

astral ridge
#

I'll be surprised if this is the puzzle, I'm probably missing something, or just plain wrong

tacit shard

I have absolutely no ideas now, I can't see the rookery anymore, blue birb has won for today, good luck with the rook/orb puzzle! puglove

Yeah I think I'm gonna take a break from The Rookery today too for awhile, play some BG3 and clear my head

I even had two of my non-WoW playing friends watch me do a run to see if they had any outside the box thinking

since we all think like WoW players

gunna lean into it's the void hammer if we can just find the darn thing

we find any leads ?

no other ring uses this icon

according to wowhead

so 4 different patterns found
#1283210270193221632 message

fervent lily
#

Is there a way to reset the puzzle without the entire instance? xD

lusty locust
#

doesn't look like it. ya get 5 'tries' if you are the only one in there with the feathers. depending upon what we need to do anyway

humble violet
#

so what is this?

fervent lily
#

But the birds despawn? Dont you only get one try?

balmy kettle
humble violet
#

the pattern thing

balmy kettle
#

one of the current ideas, that there might be a hidden puzzle to the area right after 1st boss

wild cove
#

The most frustrating thing is there's many logical ways we could tame him, but none of them work. We put more thought into secrets than the devs sometimes

uneven moon
#

anyone have 4 people stand in the dim nests with rooks favor at the same time?

analog drift
#

No

humble violet
#

Where doi you find these feathers to release these rooks?

uneven moon
#

the ones that make you fall slow

#

after first boss

#

in hole

astral ridge
balmy mica
fossil tundra
#

Anyone tried to solo the whole dungeon to see if he flies down?

tribal arch
#

true but secret things sometimes have a tiny drop chance right?

#

0.5% would be ok for a mount, why not for a rare pet :p

balmy kettle
#

it varies on a lot of things

#

if it's a very rare drop, is there something meant to direct us to thinking it's relevant enough to farm?

pallid nebula
#

I'm against the idea that it will need more then one person, it just doesn't seem right to me that every hunter who wants to tame him has to depend on others to tag along
but then again I'm completely out of ideas for what else to try . . .

tribal arch
#

kek so i bugged this guy out

#

get him aradan

balmy mica
fervent lily
balmy kettle
#

if you find it in game let us know

fervent lily
#

It was just datamined and no info on it, but has interesting inscription

astral ridge
tribal arch
#

I think we agree this is one of the possible solutions, but we need the WAY to find it first.....

balmy kettle
#

nothing about the item itself is meant to lead us to the item itself

#

since we only know about it through datamining

tender zealot
#

this hammer get posted like 20 times a day here XD

lusty locust
#

am looking :D tried looking for where any stormrooks might be roosting but no luck outside the crystal area

tribal arch
#

like we might know that hammer is the key (perhaps?) but you first need to know how to obtain it

fervent lily
#

Well the tooltip for it is inv_mace_1h_earthendungeon_c_02

#

so maybe from stonevault?

balmy kettle
#

it's the same icon as the dungeon loot from the new zone

fervent lily
#

The first stormrook statue pointed towards an earthen on a hill that mentions armor being hidden in stormvault for us to retrieve from a rider

pallid nebula
#

Unless someone actually finds this "Void-Scarred Stormhammer" in-game I'm going to have nightmares about if for weeks at this point

balmy kettle
#

they are all named similarly even the ones that dont drop in earthen instances

balmy mica
balmy kettle
#

(and we dont see the names of icons unless we look outside of game, where the hints are not kept)

lusty locust
#

Oh? where's that at Gernee?

fervent lily
# lusty locust Oh? where's that at Gernee?

I will SS when im done trying the puzzle again. If you go to the mourning hill and see the statue beneath the grave. If you follow it perfectly towards dornogal there will be a little earthen on a hill next to a tomb. there is also the same earthen rider statue next to him

#

he has interesting dialogue about something being lost in stonevault

lusty locust
#

okay i've got a few more mo before raid

tribal arch
#
/use Hold Stormhammer```
fervent lily

heading to SS now

tribal arch

fervent lily

Weird cave with empty stormrook nests here too

lusty locust

oooooooooooooooooo

tribal arch
fervent lily
#

Same earthen statue as the grave

lusty locust
#

sounds like that's one that you summon with bait?

balmy kettle
#

that show up when you use the bait

fervent lily
#

ah

#

weird that its all next to eachother

tribal arch
fervent lily
#

especially since the same earthen lady statue is here that is in mourning

balmy kettle
quasi scarab
#

it said his (duggen?) frame is in there, is that a reference to the mechsuit thats a rare drop from the stonevault?

balmy kettle
#

i figured frame meant their body

lyric sphinx
#

oh someone else answered - i did try taming them just in case and was not allowed

fervent lily
#

This statue is in the direct path the stormrook is pointing at the original grave

tribal arch
#

not sure those birds are related find them everywhere

#

but maybe its worth mapping a map with dots on where we find em

fervent lily
#

really thinking about checking stonevault for clues on that hammer

pallid nebula
#

I'm desperate I'm in there right now

fervent lily
#

does anyone have the dev screenshot of it in his stable?

#

any way to see if he had anything on his ui? Ive never seen the ss

quasi scarab
#

it was the armory stable, not his ingame

fervent lily
#

ah

buoyant swan
#

I just woke up in a cold sweat. How tf does a baby storm rook exist?

balmy kettle
#

the dev would not have given away any blatant clues when they confirmed the hunt was possible

balmy kettle
#

they dont want it solved in a day

heavy stream
#

We are going on a month now...

balmy kettle
#

still pretty early-on, for these kinds of things

grim sequoia
#

People cleared the raid faster

buoyant swan
#

Like that's got to be something right? They come from the clouds. They don't reproduce. Or lay eggs. Where's the stormrook eggs?? I ain't seen any.

grim sequoia
#

Their lower half is mammalian

#

I wouldn't expect eggs

buoyant swan
#

But they are listed as elementals. They don't do that. It's an oddity they exist.

fervent lily
#

Im sure weve all noticed by now that in the instance, all stormrooks are facing sideways while the last middle one on the bottom is facing directly towards the baby?

buoyant swan
#

This is all only speculation but it's something g with that little birb.

fervent lily
#

100% agree

#

Im assuming if u do puzzle correctly, little birb give void hammer?

dull kernel
#

There are egg laying mammals (thanks Australia).

buoyant swan
#

But these are animals if pure energy, not flesh and blood.

#

I'm sure Australia has those too. But that's not the point lol

#

If cloud rooks can summon their own from the elemental plane, then maybe stormrooks are returned like Phoenix from ashes. Maybe the little birb could be kyrioss? Idk I'm at my wits end lol.

fervent lily
#

Did the armory post show his name? o.O To see if he was earthen haha

buoyant swan
#

We tried earthen

balmy kettle
#

forget you saw the armory post, it wasnt meant to help us

red light
#

the campaign part about the birds mentioned that calling the stormrooks was shamanism

fervent lily
#

"You must be a shaman to unlock this hunter pet" -Blizz 2024

buoyant swan
#

Exactly, but what about when one of them dies?

wild cove
balmy kettle
#

Have we tried simply saying "F" to pay respects while the birb flies close by?

west breach
dull kernel
#

there is that magic chicken feed item that you need to get a chicken mini pet

pallid prism
#

I'd still use my clefthoof over Aradan, I've tried all sorts, even left my characer there afk just perched on the cliff, paying my respects ha

pallid nebula
#

Okay so there is no hammer in The Stonevault that could be picked up
The only thing in there is this

fervent oxide
pallid nebula
#

well nothing in that dungeon then unless it would be a rare dropp

tribal arch
fervent lily
#

So in Rookery. We have body direction, head direction and feathers pointing different directions on the front of nests. One of these has to lead to the correct puzzle orientation, no?

visual veldt
paper merlin
#

I don't even see it on the loot list for Heroic.

tribal arch
#

exactly

balmy kettle
tribal arch
#

bit odd no?

#

well it has the same pattern as the stuff where you free stormrooks but its thin link

#

what else we got though surely someone has time to do a heroic try drop it lol

#

better than bashing head in rookery might make a nice change

pallid prism
fervent lily
#

So if the stormhammer isnt a "drop" its possible its just not visible until like a puzzle is completed? Like the choreghast puzzles for boosts

#

but in this case a jumpy boi birb game

balmy kettle
#

if it is in game, it could have any sort of prereq

pallid prism
#

it's a container I believe so would be 'spawned' in

balmy kettle
#

right item in bag, right thing clicked

paper merlin
#

Have we used the feather to fly through the orbs? Like can we pop them? Or do we bounce off?

fervent lily
#

bounce

#

Just resetting and trying differnt puzzle methods

#

It doesnt seem the feathers have any consistent layout

#

Yo! I just noticed something on this attempt! When Kyrioss enters he throws down the void balls that trap the rooks below. Im going to reset and see if I can slow mo that cast

#

Not the 4 floaters but like 8-9 blue orbs

hazy pawn
#

yeah, slow it down and note the order

raw violet
#

Yeah - I’ve mentioned that a few times - what is he actually doing there - and I think it’s the second boss that’s doing it while he’s riding kyrios - then he jumps down

fervent lily
raw violet
#

You can go in solo stealth without aggro and have him spawn and just watch un-impeded with a better view

#

Seems like he throws the amount of rooks down there ? So are they pokeballs?

fervent lily
#

I think we can all agree the last one to hit is the baby, and second to last is the one directly across facing baby?

raw violet
#

Sounds good

fervent lily
#

Need to determine which means "Different floor" and which means "That one next same floor" when looking at body positioning vs head positions vs feathers.

#

For anyone that wasnt here earlier

raw violet
#

I’m probably just gonna sit up top and look down while cross referencing this ^

fervent lily
#

thats what ive been doing for 30 mins now haha

raw violet
#

And take a good ponder

#

lol

fervent lily
#

I think we figure out which is first by working backwards tbh haha

steel anchor
#

Did we try observing which rook flies which direction and releasing based on that?

fervent lily
#

Thats hard when not knowing where to begin

raw violet
#

I’d be looking to see if there’s a certain way to do releases or something in an order where the shadow balls either make it the only way to do it or they make it harder to do it - seems like two good routes to try to reproduce and try

astral ridge
fervent lily

so that may mean moving up and down the shoot and possibly not hitting the orbs

Someone has a vid of them all flying out

#

But I’m not sure we would know the order in which they were released - have to ask person - they were using to toons - one to release and the other to capture the birds flying away up top

#

But that video does exsist - it was fun to watch regardless - and if you find it - it’s sped up lol -

Anyone wanna join me and record while I release?

someone else created the diagram,
1st one is where you get the feather, next is level 2 with birds, then level 3 with birds, then the last level. The numbers, I added, indicate a possible order to save the birds in

The head/body layout on the last floor is sooo wack

astral ridge
astral ridge

I think the patterns have only been suggested, I am not sure if someone actually tested them all out

It may not be clockwise, there may be a weird pointing pattern if 7 is 1 in this

astral ridge
reef stratus
#

Playing around with the feathers when i suddenly notice that none of the followers carry the buff from freeing the birds, BUT... the hunter.

astral ridge
#

but the problem is 8 and 9, they are not in corners and only appear to work with clock wise movement at the end

reef stratus
#

thought i would mention it, because none of the other followers got it. Just he. Weird imo

steel anchor
reef stratus
#

And ofc this happens when i am not on my bm hunter but on a druid šŸ˜›

astral ridge
fervent lily
#

Maybe the dark spots are "skip" and light spots are "next"

#

on the diagram

#

if moving counterclock

reef stratus
#

went for baby birb first, then the others going from down to up

astral ridge
fervent lily
#

1,2,4,6,5,3..... is how im looking at it from this one

round cape
#

lol, well the hunter doesn't show up if you're playing a hunter so no wonder we didn't notice

yeah you can't get the same class, i guess except for druid and pally

ask the follower hunter how to tame birb quick

I think that is just a distance thing

nah garrick is a hunter

i was thinking about the stormhammer, if it's related - the thing is, we hvave to work like we didn't know about it

warrior tank dev must have designed this

Hubby and I are running The Stonevault, going to take our time and see if anything sticks out

tribal arch
#

raid time for me soon I resume the hunt later

round cape
#

i'm thinking along the lines of... Aradan is mourning the 1st boss, which is Gorren's rook

#

so perhaps the hammer was Gorren's idk

#

because Gorren is corrupted by the void, thus the void-scarred hammer

astral ridge
#

so after the bolts are shot down the shaft the orbs should be up, they are not, eyes of the beast still shows nothing down there

round cape

if only hunters could use maces

I havent personally. Stuck on the puzzle

bottom floor head/body orientation makes no sense

steel anchor
fervent lily

What if the feathers are meant to indicate order? 0,1,2

astral ridge
#

you can not run the follower dung, pulling the large group of mobs first in order to leave the mini-boss alive till last, the npc's will run and pull the rest of the entrance

fervent lily

wdym?

astral ridge

watched the druid healer run over to the birds and pull the mobs back into the corner, thus pulling the mini-boss

fervent lily

Why are we wanting to try and save the mini boss? o.O

astral ridge

ahhhh

wont let me

astral ridge

but you have to pull those channeling the orbs away, I can do the left side, but the npc's pull the miniboss

no confirmation on baby first

that'd be neat

i find sus that the whole area before you jump into the last boss pit is a complete circle

Has anybody tried to fish in that pool while having the buff you get from releasing the stormrooks?

astral ridge
#

one of my hostile birds fell into the pit during the boss fight and landed on the grate, I jumped into the pit to avoid her big beam (it worked, didn't get stunned by that) and I guess a bird died while I was in the whirlpool

hmmm

hey

#

if you kill kyrioss while he is flying in the middle

does his body fall to the platform

yes

astral ridge

#

i was having an idea but sounds like bs now

#

however something else took my mind

#

this pet is kinda sus

#

reminds me of that rare from Bastion

#

you needed to use a glider to get to it

astral ridge
#

you can also start the fight by jumping into the pool if you cast Bestial Wrath and then jump in

drifting bough
#

and then ride it

#

so what if you need a buff to ride it as well

tacit shard
#

Guys you should read the list, I see things here that have already been tested, like letting the miniboss live ^^

astral ridge
balmy kettle
#

Most realistic to check is "were they a BM hunter"

astral ridge
#

maybe some of them were tested before the blue post and will work now

tacit shard
astral ridge
tacit shard

I think all on the list got tested after blue poste

#

and wouldn't make any sense to me if you can supposedly tame birb without any problems...
How could we come up with that... you can do everything right and still not be successful because of something like that 🤨

cursive spindle
drifting bough
#

one thing that i noticed was that the video displaying the birb going down first accidentaly freed a rook, so that kinda throws it off a bit as a potential clue

lyric sphinx
#

pls not more griftah

small creek
#

Any ideas which keeper the archivest report in that oztan is talking about? It just mentions a keeper to the west subduing the stormrooks...

Im guessing west is uldum? Any keepers there?

drifting bough
#

griftah has nothing new except the shining purple thing

#

if that thing ends up being the hook imma end myself

didnt end up being anything when it showed up in DF at least

I had the conduit in my bags from the main quest while poking the dungeon yesterday but nothing worked. But I was thinking maybe there’s something a feather or clickable item where lufstela hangs out?

tacit shard
#

Can we somehow summon rain?

blazing crown
#

Seems unlikely to use a random 6 expansion old item as well (although might be other newer things)

tacit shard
#

because I read somewhere that they like rain/water

astral ridge
#

the druid has the buff, but hers is expiring faster than mine, I still have 2 mins left

#

no other party members have it

#

there's that new water ball thing

#

people like to leave them all over dorn

tacit shard
#

I could be wrong, but i think it says that rain makes the stormrooks happy ^^

eternal frigate
#

It does yeah

fervent lily
#

We need to solve rook puzzle so we know if it has anything to do with it haha

eternal frigate
#

Rain and thunder, they feel peaceful in such weather

#

And it "heals" them

woeful rock

Storms, specificaly. Lightning heals them

#

The trails for me runs cold after you read Olbaerg's notes on Cloudrooks and it leads you to Rambleshire. Rableshire just has notes on Ramolyths.

The scroll in dhar otzan has some interesting lore on the stormrooks, I feel like one of these is a hint somehow

Opened up the spellbok and started clicking lol

I wanna know what the significance of porting to Stormsong is with the griftah coin

raw violet
#

Only thing I don’t think I tried personally were barrage and scatter shot

#

And I didn’t bother with scare beast cause multiple people said they tried

wild cloak
raw violet
#

Only really semi productive thing talent wise are the traps and snares and interup shots that have target circles to place/throw

#

And beast lore works on Aradan

quaint ore
#

They would've had to prepare long in advance if it was connected to this.

raw violet
#

Even started testing different abilities on the mobs with Jo results so far

fervent lily
#

I dont think the feathers on the roosts have anything to do with the puzzle. If you eyes of beast under boss before killing him, no stormrooks or baby have spawned yet, but the feathers are there. IF the "event" doesnt begin until boss is dead, one could assume the feathers wouldnt be there yet

raw violet
#

Here’s a good question - why do the two rooks fly out after boss and when the hole opens - how’d they get free?

#

Is it just a visual cue - free da birbs

fervent lily
#

We need like 10 people to all try different birb patterns at the same time xD

eventually we will get it

Then how many people believe the stormrook tunnel IS indeed a puzzle?

ive been trying to slowfall over with specifically a cloudrook before killing anything in the dungeon just to see if neutral aradan is hanging out over there somewhere but i am a bad pilot and i seem to die as soon as i step off the ledge

I just wish the moss piles worked

#

There is no reason for dung progression or an achievement linked to freeing the birds that we are aware of. That's a lot of work put into that atmosphere, especially with a tamable pet in the dung.

balmy kettle

adding the npcs?

i think i have exhausted my own abilities there though lol

#

You can actually kill those Skardyn bombers that are down there

astral ridge
#

and once you hit the bottom of the chute you trigger the next event in the dung, that's why I think if we free the birds correctly and come back up he will be there.

fervent lily
#

Is there any way to do the rook tunnel while the bombers are active still? To shoot down aradan?

#

Or any way to get their ability

arh wasnt aware of that but that seems an odd way to go down tho

Disengaging off a stormrook is unintended.

that wouldnt be it then as anyone could do it, plenty have a slowfall ability or toy

I was trying to see if using flare down there showed anything, it did not

wraith magnet
#

I didn't even know that was considered a glitch, considering the option to dismount the rooks is there and the bombers are killable enemies

quaint ore
#

It's dismounting at a specific point allowing you to bypass the death zone.

wraith magnet
#

I still find it weird that they made it so the bombers can be killed by the character, but I digress, and I won't consider it a possibility going forward

in my whirlpool jumping run, I did get one of the hostile rooks trapped under the edge of the top grate and it de-spawned when the boss died.

Good morning all! Any new leads?

You know it’s bad when you dream about the birb 🐦

Going off the stormrider enjoying cinderbrew and gems, if the brew is the cinderbrew you can buy in front of the meadery dungeon, what would the gems be?

balmy kettle
#

There are vendors in dornogal

quasi scarab

the ones like the earthens eat instead of food ^

#

i had a stack of 10 each color but it didnt seem to do much of anything with or without being under the influence of cinderbrew

fervent lily
#

So the Epitaph. "Was wearing stormrider armor but was removed.... been bashed by a blunt object"... I could guess the blunt object is the yet to be found "Void-Scarred Stormhammer". Is it possible we need to locate the armor and the hammer and equip them ?

wraith magnet
#

I was looking at the Infused Cinderbrew item because I thought it might protect from the deathwalls (it doesn't) but weirdly all of the NPCs where you get it have the Streamlined Relic buff, which is a delve buff

i've been completely smashed on cinderbrew haven't found anything new so far in dungeon

so that's like 20 brews

Has anyone been drunk in the stormrook cave?

would wearing stomrider armor mean just the transmog, or literally wearing the armor?

oh - Gorren shoots like 20 of those orbs down hole before yelling and jumping down :| must be him just casting the stormwall spell so you cant go down? or is he the puzzlemaster?

Yeah the one ya pointed out Gernee

oh there's one of those little wooden gryphon carvings in this corridor umm

Maybe you could somehow pacify the enemy stormrooks without killing them? (I don't play hunter, so not sure if possible)

lusty locust
#

it' probably just random prop

fervent lily

No other epitaphs or anything in Kriegvals delve. Checked every inch of it

I..found an unexpected room. neat. the kindling parlor

In dorn?

yeah it's probably been discovered befoe buncha npcs in here like manastorm

so if you start the figth with Gorren and run to Aradan, Gorren will teleport to you, i killed him at Aradan. nothing happened but it was interesting

lusty locust
#

okay going to go look at that other location

wraith magnet
#

Am I wrong or does that statue look a lot like Bagdur's?

hollow storm
#

is there any "capture" skill? as in literally called "capture", since the blizzard post says "capture", not "tame

fervent lily
#

Stormrooks traditionally have bindings?

Gorren is no longer resetting when he pulls out of his room?

oh lemme go back and see if I can find it.

the void balls do 441,150 shadow dmg to you - and parasols and other floaty methods work to help fall onto them if needed - it will toss you side ways too - i jumped off withy no spped buffs and i fell through it at first and got launched sideways near the bottom of it

hollow storm
#

We’ve been seeing chatter from some hunters thinking that Aradan isn’t available to tame yet. While capturing this secretive stormrook isn’t as obvious as most tameable hunter pets, we wanted to confirm to those of you looking to tame Aradan that there’s nothing preventing the capture of this spirit beast.

Good luck taming this blue birb!

entrace to corridor is 69.02, 5.35

k i was gonna say yeah its possible to leave them alive

which leaves me to believe the statues are just decoration

has anyone tried clearing the first boss not from a queue and then leaving the dungeon without it resetting to check the open world?

fervent lily

I might be blind but I dont see a birb statue in kindling room

lusty locust
#

it's on a book shelf

fervent lily
#

ooo now I do

#

yooo thats wild

#

that lines up perf with original statue

lusty locust
#

does it?

fervent lily
plain cargo
#

I think the original post provided a hint with the specific use of the word "capturing". You still could have put "Tame" there and it both read and sound grammatically correct - especially considering they use Tame/Taming in the same post.

fervent lily
#

the second line is where its pointing now

lusty locust
#

huh

balmy kettle
#

it would just kinda sound clunky to use the same word that many times, if they really wanted it to stick out like a hint they would have stuck to either tame or capture

fervent lily
#

must find third statue xD

lusty locust
#

I'll look along that missing line then

fervent lily
#

same

hmm - i seem to get different dmg numbers - not sure why - with favor buff and no feather buff ig ot hit for 451,442

New statue 57.04 35.39

you can apply buffs to the rooks too - they get the water gun effect/buff on them

#

ive been trying to hop down hitting each void ball one after another but it isnt easy - last one is hard to get but super close

fervent lily
#

New statue 47.31 44.64 on shelf behind brann

lusty locust
#

yeah hitting all the void balls on one pass is hard I didn't manage to do it before ran outta feathers

wraith magnet
#

This is silly but has anyone tried using the /beckon emote on the rooks or maybe just the stormling before setting them free?

lusty locust
#

i did not emit at the chick yet. just kyrioss and aradan. he basically flies away as soon as you despell him

#

New statue 52.17 73.37 .... they might be leading me in circles tbh

lusty locust

i don't think the statues are it. they aren't interactive at all

or its a really generic common isle of dorn decoration and you will be finding them everywhere

I will check pc soon it wont let me check pins on my phone

balmy kettle
#

we dont have any confirmed steps just yet, could be a lot of different avenues of obtainment

i boosted a hunter, since it's a spirit beast it's safe to assume if there was a class/spec requirement to even interact with what we need to it would be BM

i also wanted to be in the pic when we eventually find how to tame it

ohhh that makes sense

they did it to the person over Jenafur, they'll absolutely do it over this (sadly)

balmy kettle

it is safe to assume everything we need to figure out the hunt is in the game right now, available in the client

#

if anyone mentions a hammer, dont ask we havent seen it in the game yet

lilac zealot

gonna take a break and get some food, this bird makin me hungry

if it doesnt let us tame it soon, I'm makin chicken wings.

#

best practices would be to rule out everything in expanding circles; ie, do every possible thing only available in the dungeon before expanding to toys and zones outside the dungeon

fervent lily
#

If its really as straightforward as "do puzzle right", id think someone, somewhere would have accidentally done it?

rocky dove

someone did

#

they havent shared the solution

are we sure they aren't fibbing?

It doesnt help to rehash it

So doing the quest on an alt hunter with Olbarig, the one with the mourning cloudrooks, i think this might be a clue.

#

it says they arnt mourning, they are calling out to their departed kin

balmy kettle
#

i think aradan is mourning at least

tacit shard
#

I just hope that everyone who tested stuff was BM, since it is a spirit beast after all ^^,

hmm - was nothing - when you get down to bottom it is weird - before that its easy to make a counterclockwise pattern of releasing birds and how they are facing - it all works but bottom is odd

was there more than one ingame text about Duggen from the stonevault?

he's 73 for my lvl 77 hunter

Is there any other way to tame a storm rook ? if yes has anyone tried bringing one close to him, if he s indeed not mourning and calling out to his kin maybe bringing one to him will lure him ?

sadly he's the only one set tameable all others are set as elementals
