Sindragosa -Queen of the Frostbrood-

As you can imagine, a little more excited to post about this than I was about the Princes Kill, but woh... When we first stepped foot into Sindragosa's area, our hearts were in our mouth's with anticipation. Not only had we just got 2 new bosses down which previously we struggled for, but now, we were only 1 boss away from the Lich King himself...

I seem to be posting a lot more about raiding than I am about Hunter related things, which is a sign that good ol' Zukiji is aging, and from some cataclysmic event, may even change from a Dwarf to a Human, though stay tuned for confirmation on that!

Couple of Hunter related shizzness now. Zukiji's stables are now very much Beast Mastery friendly, being full with BM only pets! 4 of which are the Unique Skinned Spirit Beasts, with King Krush as a 'Tag-along' ;D Despite not actually being able to use my stable in Marksman at all now, I'm still very pleased with the state it's in so far. Next on the Agenda, renaming those who need it!

I'm going to make a post later on, maybe even within the next few minutes of this one going out about my personal opinions to the Class Changes which have been shown across various WoW related websites. In the eyes of Lord Marrowgar; 'Stick aroounnndd.... BOOONNEEESTOOORRRMMM!!!1!!11!!!one!!!'

Spirit Beasts

Managed to help another Hunter tame a Spirit Beast today! Here's a picture of 'Frenzyfever' a Tauren Hunter who managed to find me actually on this blog page which is pretty awesome! Gratz to him and his new Spirit Beast!

With the Release of 3.3 merely weeks away (I mean, it has to bee soon, right?) I thought I's do a recap of the Spirit Beasts available in game as of recent and the locations of each! Locations I would recommend people to look for the beasts are in Green ;D

Loque'nahak

The original Spirit Beast, found on the Beta of Wrath of the Lich King is still one of the most sort after Spirit Beasts of the 3 for it's bubblegum blue mouth and sleek looks. This little fellow can be found in Sholozar Basin at the following locations for people who have Co-ordinates with the amount of times I have personally found her in [ ] brackets:

• 70.9 | 71.7 - [4]
• 66.6 | 79.1 - [1]
• 51.4 | 81.6 - [2]
• 31.3 | 66.5 - [1]
• 22.1 | 70.2 - [1]
• 29.2 | 47.3 - [1]
• 36.7 | 29.3 - [1]
• 59.3 | 22.5 - [2]

Best way to go about this is keep circling the area. If you have mining or herbalism skill aswell, you can make some pretty sweet gold from this method :D it's a win win situation!

Gondria

The second Spirit Beast released in patch 3.1, enlightened Hunters across the globe that Blizzard is interested in adding a Spirit Beast per patch! Known for it's 'Spectral Tiger' look, or as the Spectral Tiger Pet, Gondria comes equipped with style and pursuit about it! This ghostly kitty can be found in Zul'Drak at the following locations for people who, again, have Co-ordinates with the amount of times I have personally found him in [ ] brackets:

• 63.6 | 43.0 - [5]
• 69.8 | 48.6 - [9]
• 61.7 | 61.9 - [2]
• 68.0 | 77.3 - [6]
• 77.8 | 70.5 - [1]
• 77.2 | 44.4 - [1]

I have found Gondria quite a few times to say the least, and from what I can tell, mainly on Agamaggan Server, is that it isn't always picked up straight away, or I have a LOT of luck with this guy. The time of day plays a major role in the taming of not only this beast, but every single one, however, I have found at either 00:00 server time -> 04:00 server time it is normally there :D

Skoll

The most recently available Spirit Beast on Live servers is possibly the most noticeable of the 3, being that instead of it being a kitty, it's a Wolf! This electric blue wolf emanates electricity which can be heard by standing near to it, and with all the other Spirit Beasts, has Prowl so a stealthing, electric blue wolf that looks like it wants to go and kill ANYTHING is pretty much very high on Beast Master Hunter's agenda in terms of taming. So far, I have managed to find this beast in 3 locations, however, a friend of mine may have hinted at a 4th hidden location which will need inspecting furthur upon (as I haven't actually seen him there, so if anyone has found it at the bottom location, please, respond!). This metal beast can be found in Storm Peaks at the following locations for people who, yet again, have Co-ordinates with the amount of times I have personally found him in [ ] brackets:

• 27.7 | 50.4 - [2]
• 30.2 | 64.6 - [1]
• 46.6 | 64.7 - [2]
• 54.5 | 54.3 - [?]

This guy has alot of beliefs that he shares the spawn of the Time-Lost Proto Drake or Vyragosa, when I can in fact confirm that he definately doesn't. I managed to find Skoll on the PTR 3.2 a few seconds before the Time-Lost Proto Drake flew passed me, same with on live servers, but with Vyragosa and a few more seconds between each other. Same with Gondria, and all other Spirit Beasts to be honest, it's all a matter of being in the right place at the right time as they can be picked up pretty sharpish.

Good luck hunting Spirit Beasts, and roll on 3.3 for Arcturis, the 'Spectral Bear'!

Arcturis - Spirit Beast 3.3.0

The newest Spirit Beast introduced on the PTR for patch 3.3.0 is Arcturis, the Spectral Bear found within Grizzly Hills. Being level 74 make Arcturis the lowest level Spirit Beast attainable for any Beast Masters out there.

Here are a few screenshots I took based on this new Pet:

Arcturis - Spirit Beast Patch 3.3.0

Location - North of Amberpine

Taming the Beast

I made a video shortly after taming this awesome looking beast, based on screenshots taken during and after the tame. Link to the video can be found here.

More locations are bound to pop up over time, so I'll post them in the comments to this post.
