Albino Buzzard

I am so disheartened by the rgn of this pet... it is now my 600 odd battle for it, and have not had it drop yet. I bought one on AH, and am still persevering hoping for a drop so that I can sell it to recoup the gold I spent.. what is it with Blizz that this just goes on and on.. its a hopeless mess...

I find I am playing WoW less and less.

pets are hideous to get. I long for the times when we could just go into an area and battle for what we wanted...

I feel your pain. I have done this battle every day since day 1 and I still haven't had a drop. I'm not giving up though, as I refuse to be beaten by a flipping make believe buzzard!

One day, one day it will be ours and I'll still be farming for Invincible..yep. For the rest of my life.

You are not alone in the no drop group. We know your pain. It seems things either drop the first time or the 1000th. I wish I had a spare one to give to you.

Think happy thoughts and level something with the quest.
That way you arent just looking for the buzzard but leveling something in a different way.

Your struggle is real. I parked a level 100 alt there and only did that quest every day.

He didn't get a buzzard till he was 106!

It will drop..... eventually

This makes me feel bad. I have gotten at least half a dozen Albino Buzzards just by parking a leveling alt there.

I've also had no luck yet. I've leveled TWO level 100's to 104 and now have a low low alt parked there, gaining half a level per day! :lol:

I refuse to pay what these things are selling for on the AH.

Yep, I feel ya. I bought mine after frustration set in. Now I just keep an alt logged out there and pull him out once a day to try and get one to actually drop. :|

600 odd battles on a once daily fight? Even if you had two accounts, that's still not enough time.

I believe the Albino Buzzard came out around October 25th. That's about 8 months, if we figure 30 days in a month, that puts us around 240 possible attempts on a single account. If you double that, 480 for 2 accounts.

However many attempts - this only takes a couple of minutes a day and can be used to level a char. Plus the pet can be traded. One of (too many) RNG rewards in action but not much of an issue imo.

So you're saying he has 3 accounts he's been doing this on. Got it. Doubt it, but got it.
