Anyone done the attunement for this yet? Boss-type mob who, if you're attuned, you get a world quest for a mount or pet, with an incredibly hidden and obscure series of things you have to do to unlock it; I'm utterly baffled how players managed to find half these things, a few I could see people accidentally discovering (although not working out the significance; most of them you can't even see the orb, it's just a random cave), but some are insanely hard to find, I frankly don't think they're findable by normal exploring! Thought I'd have fun and start with just a list of coordinates, not to make it too easy... well, that lasted till orb #4 when I hit the problem of cave entrance nowhere near orb location, which was what my list gave, and surely it wasn't going to be out in the fatigue water? Yes, yes it was. So I switched to MMO-C's list which was a bit more informative... still got stuck on #7 and had to Google for more info, as for #9 I had to resort to a video to show me the way through! No way anyone found those by accident, just no way lol. Still it was a fun way to spend 3 hours or so exploring, although I do think the evil insanely hard-hitting mobs inside a couple of the caves are a tad unfair; I had neither enough burst dmg to kill one of them before it killed me, or a silence to make it stop nuking for 600k a hit... only took 3 deaths to get the orb lol. At least the other one was shackleable so I didn't need to find out how hard he hit. http://www.mmo-champion.com/content/5955-Kosumoth-the-Hungering-Guide-Dev-Q-A-Friday-Sept-9-Sept-6-Hotfixes-DLC-550 if any of you fancy a shot, don't be surprised if you need to Google for more detail though lol :-) I do love these super-hidden things, it's fun to see people trying to work out how to find them, no chance I'd get anywhere though, so I'll just wait for other people to find them for me. At least reading comments on some of these explained why I'm failing to find my Adventurer of Highmountain rare mobs, apparently nobody's found two of them (I hadn't looked them up yet, thinking surely I'll run across them if I look harder; since I like exploring it's a fun challenge to find these things without addons on my main!)

Yeah, at present there's loads of people hanging around the boss area at busy times, it seems to be crossrealmed (must be, there were more Alliance than Horde around and I'm used to 95% Horde...), so it's not a problem right now - in a couple of months when most interested people have the mount and pet, it might be another matter though, unless they make the worldquest give something else useful like gear if you already have them! >Btw. I made my rocfeather skyhorn kite today. Very usable toy! > ><http://www.wowhead.com/item=131811> That's a fantastic toy, even after the cd got increased I still use it a lot, saves on wasting goblin gliders! The goblin glider has a longer duration so if you want to jump off a *really* high cliff with control, better to use those, but the kite is great for most things. Also have to mention my most loved and used item of the expansion: Flight Master's Whistle http://www.wowhead.com/item=141605 - port to a flightpath on a 5 mins cd is so so useful, and makes worldquests a lot less annoying when on the ground. I see finding my way to the quest as just a part of the quest really, so that's fine with me, but having to fight your way back out afterwards is pretty annoying; the whistle completely solves that problem for anything that's not underground (so ok, Falanaar tunnels are still rather annoying... :-P )

Its extremely useful! :) That whistle makes the flying skill somehow obselete. -- Peter T.

Do you only fly to flight paths? I fly between locations within
Stormwind, Ogrimmar, and Thunder Bluff in order not to have to
negotiate the maze of streets and bridges (it's pointless in
Ironforge, Undercity, and Exidor, as you have to follow the "streets"
anyway.)

Hehe no. :) but since we cant fly in Broken Isles the whistle makes the flying skill more or less obselete there. -- Peter T.

Yeah, it basically means we miss it much less, at least, I do; in fact I find myself summoning ground mounts in places I can fly now, amazing how quickly you get used to it :-) Very happy with that whistle, it hits a very good middle ground IMO, I'm sure the people who really really love flying will disagree though!
