Don't forget, if you have a Terrible Turnip, set first ability to Weakening Blows!!! This guarantees that you will not kill the pet you are trying to capture. Works best to have your Turnip at max level (25) and you can capture any lower level pets including Level 1's and you will never kill it by accident...
Flew around Dry Hills at 1:05am server time, found just one, unfortunately, it's a poor.. :O right next to a Windcaller xD
Caught the pet, and the Windcaller screamed at me "You will pay for my sister's death!" XD so cool xD
I spent three hours looking for a harpy and just one spawned in all of that time, it's an uncommon but I'm happy, I renamed in Exwife.
Found Harpy Youngling after 20 or 30 mins (Dry Hills).... 1st one was a poor and there were a lot of x-relm'ers and after another 20mins I found a uncommon but still no rare.
Finally found a rare one of these, and... it turned out to be male. I don't even know.
This little lady is a powerhouse! She was very easy to capture in Northern Barrens. She leveled up quickly and is my "go-to" pet when I'm farming for rares of frogs and turtles. She might fall under the Humanoid section, but she is a "Sky-Lord" that is very fast and efficient at hunting all Aquatics.
I killed or battled a half dozen pets in the area, then came back and saw two harpies spawn. I don't think killing the critters affects it. You need to free up spaces in the Northern Barrens population for new spawns of any kind. In this case, it does help to go out and do the work and reduce the pet population in the area, not just hang around waiting for spawns :)
These pets do seem to have a bit of a long spawn timer. Keep checking back and you will find them.
The strategy that worked for me was to park a lvl 45 alt there, and when checking, ride around covering all the Dry Hills area, including the entrance by the prowlers/lions, and entrance on the opposite side...basically everywhere you see an adult harpy.
In some ways I think being on a ground mount is better in this case, because you don't have to go through all the trees, land, target, fight. Create a macro to target the youngling, and bind a key to interact. That should help a lot.
Got a green pretty quickly after getting there which is amazing since there were about 6 other aliance and horde there too. I battled all the pets that were around the harpies at the dry hills and one popped pretty quickly afterwards.
Found one at The Dry Hills it was of poor quality but there was a few other people around so I took it for now will try back again for a rare next week proabably :)
Found one up around 7am server 4:20 pst, it was poor quality *update* went back tonight 11/29 6am server time to hunt for a rare found around 15+ up, burned through 10, 8poors 2normal 1 rare. They all seem to have equalized stats (not speedy or ap weighted) I checked 4 others (engaged then logged) that were up 3 regulars one uncommon. It seems like a lot of the 5.1 spawn rates have been fixed, buffed or they were all just scarce due to so many people hunting them yesterday.
Rare harpy found at 23.5. 33.3. Good luck!
One harpy one rare done set match haha
Keep trying if you want a blue. run around the area. That's how I found my 3, and the 2nd one was a rare!
I searched for hours for this pet - and when it spawned, it was only a grey one. That's really sad because I hoped for a green (or even a blue) one. :(
No one but me was in the area but it only spawned one Harpy although I camped the place.
Just got my rare at the Dry Hills on Azralon server at Noon server time. When I arrived there there were many, at least 10. Got my rare on the seventh battle.
i just found a rare on my first one... that spawned under me after 20 seconds... lucky me ;D
Just barely into the lunch hour (maybe 12:08 PM PST) I flew to the dry hills to get one of these, and it was PACKED with them. I'd say about 25 of them. I pulled out a max level pet and a terrible turnip and went at them all. That being said, even with 25 of them there, only 4 were uncommon, no rares, and the rest were all poor/common. I'm happy, none the less.
I did an inital fly through of the Dry Hills area and didn't see any up, so I killed/defeated a couple of the other battle pets in the area. After another 5 min or so I found a couple on the outskirts in the NW corner of the dry hills area, and another one just south of the tower that is south of the dry hills.
For those that are looking around make sure you go around the back side of the trees and into the "inlets" around the base of the mountains. That's where I found most.
Searched for one of these for an hour. Tried killing critters and other bp that spawned in the area as well as some harpies. For what it's worth I didn't really feel that doing this made them spawn. Eventually took a break and came back an hour or so later to find 2 up, uncommon and common.
