Re: Closing thoughts on the Celestial Tournament.
I always wonder, why do people buy biscuits but not battle stones for the tournament reward? Do you really have all flyers, beasts and critters rare but not leveled to 25? Yup. I imagine not everyone is in the same situation but right now I keep couple of spare stones for whatever new pet is next a...

Re: How to obtain rare AH pets without spending RL money
I don't just sell level 1 pets either though, instead, I level them to level 9. The pool of potential buyers is larger, and if anyone is in the market for the achievements for leveling pets to level 10, they only have one level to earn. Occasionally, I miscalculate, and a pet will gain one or more ...

Re: Closing thoughts on the Celestial Tournament.
It's not really the difficulty of the tournament though. Sometimes you have a working team, except you were tired or distracted and pressed a wrong button for your usual sequence and usually it would be fine except you missed and they critted. Not a major deal except now you lost and have to start o...

Re: How to obtain rare AH pets without spending RL money
Also, I'm not sure how much success you'd have with this on a lower pop server where there might not be that many people serious about pet battling, since it does put your pets off limits to any collectors who may not have a lvl 25 pet. My advice to anyone attempting this would be to stick to highe...

Re: Closing thoughts on the Celestial Tournament.
Got all my pets. Did one more week. Then went "y'know, it's really boring to have to restart this whole damnable thing because of one unlucky crit on my 4th fight leaves me unable to beat the last guy before celestials. Again! I think I'll just go kill moths in jade forest instead. Now that I have t...

Re: How to obtain rare AH pets without spending RL money
I just got my Viscous Horror after a whole lot of buying and selling and leveling pets. It was time consuming, but on Illidan (Horde side, US) I managed to buy all my missing TCG pets and that accursed Viscous Horror. It's also the only way I could get those pets since I'm hardly in a financial situ...

Re: pets you want to see in wow
I'd like a Minidan - a mini Illidan who says "you are not prepared" when summoned. Or less silly, I'd love something like a chimera, or a little minotaur, or any other mythological creature not yet covered like a lamia or a cerebus type three headed dog and yes I know, I'm weird and read way too man...

Re: Rarest pet
I'm wondering at what time they gathered the data to make that. Because there was a while where the red carp... all the carps but red in particular.. was quite hard to get. But after a patch made the carps easier to fish up and made them tradeable I can't see it being the rarest. Certainly not compa...

Re: Rotten helpers are already available it seems
Got one on my first character today. Not sure I'm willing to continually cart alts out there just for a spare. I figure this will be the biggest limiting factor. A lot of people will stop once they have one because for most of us it's just so out of the way to get mostly just toys and fruitcake. I'...

Re: Am I the only one finding Spineclaw Crab impossible?
Yes, but using that theory of the flattened economy on your server ... how many pets that I can sell would it take to make the 5-10k? :p More than on your own realm true, but it also depends on what you're selling. I've had some success selling there, but it takes a lot of patience. If you're selli...

Re: Pet 'Patience and Perseverence' posts
Man, I'm not even up to thinking about the pvp fights... I'm still fixated on the Viscous Horror. I'd rather leave that poor direhorn until the very last pet I get pre-expansion. PvP of any kind is not really my forte, I'm kind of awful at it. Viscous Horror, well, I'm not getting it through raiding...

Re: Are there reasons to collect more than one of a pet?
It's so situational I wouldn't be picking up pets for it unless you find you have a real and specific need for it. I did have a second Chrominius for a little bit to help out in the Celestial tournament, but then I found a replacement team that worked and sold my spare. I wouldn't be grabbing extras...

Re: Curious; How much would you pay for...
So basically you're sayin that level 1 pets aren't dupes? Hmm interesting :) It's fun to see how ppl vary in the amount of gold they wanna spend on that pet. :) I for one am probably trying to pay around 100k gold... Always very insecure about whether it's a dupe or not... that makes it "harder" fo...

Re: Curious; How much would you pay for...
According to my records I paid 175k for mine a 3-5 months ago, from the AH, lvl 1. So I was fine with paying that knowing it wasn't a dupe and well, seeing as it was up on my primary realm where over 90% of my gold is. What someone's fine with paying will vary a lot, I have no problems making gold s...

Re: Looking for a Levelling Spot
That said, I'm going to give out [one of] my best leveling spots. Dread Wastes 26.18 50.27 right in front of Gorespine. You can stand in one spot and never move an inch, and battle all day long, and never run out of pets to battle. By the time you finish a battle, more Hedgehogs have already re-spa...

Re: 100k Gold. What to buy first?
Based on previous dupe incidents I'd say the pets most commonly being duped won't go too much lower. I'd also count on Blizzard stopping the dupe at some point fairly soon, and despite what they say I'm sure they know it's going on, they just won't say anything at all until after it's been fixed. Un...

Oh dear, well I guess it's time to buy some more game time cards... there's no way I'm keeping that many accounts or doing that all at once.

Whining is already happening on the 2nd wing that just opened for LFR; It's too long. I spent over 3 hours in that wing and didn't even see the last boss. Too many wipes, too long waiting que, too much trashmobs. If the rest of the raid is like that, it may put off many players and will surely affe...
