Ninth time is the charm! (WoW)

Oh my god, finally. I had given up on ever getting this!





Still no progress on the Professor title (still 18/20), but eeeeeee recipe! Tomorrow I need to look at getting all the mats. x.x Then who the heck do I give it to! I have five possible alts! (Unless it's 85 to use, which it might be, then Keen gets it -- perhaps he should anyway.)

*laughs* I can't believe I actually finally got something from darned archaeology! Supposedly it has a 10% chance of dropping, and I got it from jar #9.

YAYAYAYAY!!!!!!!!! Congrats! <3 <3

I've only gotten one jar yet, so I clearly have a ways to go. Hee! Yay!

Good luck! I've heard two stories of people getting it on the first jar and one on the second, so it's possible you'll get it sooner!

I hope. I'm about halfway through mat gathering for the mount itself. Those truegold bars are a pain. :)

At least you're ready! I'm just looking at mats now. The AH is out of whiptail! Eek!

[identity profile] thistle-chaser.livejournal.com 2011-01-07 05:50 am (UTC)(link)
And I'm an idiot! I bought overpriced things at the AH, thinking I could make it tonight. Truegold transmute CD ftl! :P Oh well, soon! I have two alchemists and can borrow one!

[identity profile] kelen.livejournal.com 2011-01-07 06:33 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, and that is why I'm about halfway through. :P The mats for true gold are insane at the moment too. Finding whiptail is a chore as well. Sigh! Maybe it's a good thing I can't yet make it. ;)

Because I can, and because I saw your post on wyrmrest temple's friendslist again..

I have quite a few truegold bars. I'm willing to trade them, already made, for their mats, if you have the mats for them but need alchemists to abuse. Save some running around, if you'd like.

Oooh, that would be great, thank you! I do have all the mats for the nine I still need! :D I work during the day, but I could meet up with you in the late afternoon/evening/night?

Edit: Nine, not seven. Math is hard at 6 AM! And no worries at all if you don't have that many! It's a lot!

I've got ..22? I think?

Which alt will you be on? I'll keep an eye out, as I don't know which part of my alt army I'll be on with any regular predictability.

[identity profile] thistle-chaser.livejournal.com 2011-01-07 09:20 pm (UTC)(link)
And I'm back down to needing seven! Two people let me have their transmutes for the day, so I got them made.

Keen (Keen-Keen not Kianlar-Keen) is who I spend the majority of my time on, so feel free to poke! He has the mats on hand and ready to go.

Thanks again!

Alright, I'll keep an eye out for you on keen then.

Congrats! Oddly enough 9/10 tries is probably the closest I have ever actually seen WoWhead percent rates to actual drop % rates. Usually it seems like there are some crazy lucky people pushing up those damn numbers.

[identity profile] thistle-chaser.livejournal.com 2011-01-07 03:52 pm (UTC)(link)
There's someone on a WoW comm that keeps posting how she got it on her first jar. If only I could strangle people through the net! :P

I'm working on the technology, we might be there eventually.

*cheers you on!*

Wow, grats! I'm glad you finally got what you were going for!

I still need to get off my butt and level the stupid profession. Bleeeeegh...

[identity profile] thistle-chaser.livejournal.com 2011-01-07 04:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Eeee, thanks! And you don't need to if you don't enjoy it! The rewards are no where near worth the time and effort. If you like it? Sure! If you are willing to do it for the XP? Okay! But there's no need to if you dislike it. <3

[identity profile] kaelash.livejournal.com 2011-01-07 05:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Well hey, it's not like you can't give it to all your alts if you're crazy enough to farm all the mats. ;3 And we all know you are~

I said grats ingame already but... GRATS! 8D

[identity profile] thistle-chaser.livejournal.com 2011-01-07 06:13 pm (UTC)(link)
The NPC mats alone are 30K, so... nope! Can't give it to them all! Heck, even if I farmed all the mats, I couldn't buy a second now now. SO POOR! (...stop laughing! I started Cata at 100K and have 20K now. I feel broke!)

I wish I had farmed more of the mats. I got so excited that I bought everything at the AH last night, including flasks 200% over cost when the herbs weren't available.

Oh well! Keen will be a drake today and I can always re-earn the gold!

I feel, based on the cost of this mount, that it is a good time to bring up the multi-seater flying dragon skeleton of doom.

[identity profile] thistle-chaser.livejournal.com 2011-01-08 02:06 am (UTC)(link)
"multi-seater flying dragon skeleton of doom"? There's a multi-seat dragon mount?

[identity profile] sevataru.livejournal.com 2011-01-09 03:47 pm (UTC)(link)
they're selling for 70-100k each btw.... should prolly get on that ;)

[identity profile] thistle-chaser.livejournal.com 2011-01-09 04:25 pm (UTC)(link)
I wish! On WRA they're selling for 50K and under. INSANE. The NPC parts alone cost 30K, and it takes a crapton of other mats. (Another 20-30K if you buy them all at the AH.)

nice!
