Patch 3.1 Mounts
Quite a few mounts are being added in patch 3.1! This should make the
Mountain o' Mounts (
/
)
achievement a bit easier to complete. However, remember that two of these
mounts are being introduced to replace the
Plagued Proto-Drake and
Black Proto-Drake mounts with the new Ulduar
achievements,
since they're being removed from Glory of the Raider.
Sea Turtle is reportedly going to be 133% in water,
but currently it's listed as 60% in the data files. There has also been a
Venomhide Ravasaur mount added, but no source has been
discovered, so it's probably not implemented yet.
No Patch Tomorrow
If you keep up with the Blue Tracker,
you already know this, but the maintenance notice on login has offered a
second confirmation that 3.1 is not coming out tomorrow, April 7th.
Sartharion +3 Melee Zerg Runs
It looks like Sartharion +3 drake melee zerg runs
are becoming quite popular after last week's report of Russian players
doing it in the 10-player version of Obsidian Sanctum. Congrats to
Pinetree Pioneers on a
76-second kill,
Excesse for a
77-second kill, and Ðeadline for
an
83-second kill. The 83-second kill video is embedded below. Can anyone
top 76 seconds?!
Note: Charlise is an alt and was only brought because the guild's main
feral was not available. Hence the poor dps; not many items are enchanted at
the moment.
