Hearthsinger Forresten, Level 57 Elite, Stratholme

June 03, 2009

Hearthsinger Forresten, a neutral Level 57 Elite rare spawn to be found in Stratholme, my favourite instance in the whole of World of Warcraft. Hearthsinger Forresten has at least two spawn points that I know of and can actually be very hard to see so be sure to have a good hunt around if you don't find him at his usual spot. This is the guy that drops the Piccolo of the Flaming Fire (the trinket that makes everybody near you dance) which has all kinds of hilarious/anoying uses. Whenever I get a character up to a high enough level to solo Stratholme comfortably, this is one of the many things I go in there to get. The horde seems to have far better quests for Stratholme than the Alliance do, which is a shame as I just got my Human Paladin to level 80 and have started the grind for Argent Dawn rep and the Baron Rivendare's Deathcharger Mount. Apart from the Icecrown daily quests, Stratholme is my favourite place to grind for gold, (not to mention the tons of Runecloth for re...

Putridus The Ancient, Level 80 Rare Spawn, Icecrown

June 29, 2009

Putridus The Ancient, Level 80 Rare Spawn, Icecrown, finally got him! I've seen him walking around Icecrown a few times, but other groups always downed him first. After calling for help on /1 we soon had a full group, one surprising thing about this rare spawn is how quickly he moves, on my 60% flying mount I could hardly keep up, luckily all the other members of the group had epic flying and soon caught up with him. By the time I caught up the fight was almost over. A very easy fight, even with the many adds that we picked up. I had been following him for quite a while before the group was assembled to fight him. He must spawn on the western side of Icecrown, runs up to the north, turns right, goes through the gate and turns right again and heads south towards Crystalsong Forest. We caught up with him and killed him in the broken front, I'm not sure if he would have despawned at the Glacier enterance to Crystalsong or if he turns around and retraces his steps. ...

Grocklar, Level 74 Elite Northrend Rare Spawn, Grizzly Hills

June 13, 2009

Grocklar, Level 74 Elite Northrend Rare Spawn, Grizzly Hills. This was the first rare spawn I ever saw in Northrend, I had just crossed the border from Dragonblight into Grizzly Hills and I saw him moving through the woodland to my right. You'd think a Storm Giant would be pretty easy to get a picture of, they aren't exactly hard to see, but the screen shot below was the best picture I managed to get of it as it ran east, deeper into Grizzly Hills. I didn't even attempt to fight this one on my level 73 Druid, still mostly wearing level 70 welfare epics. I have been back and looked for him a number of times, but am yet to see it again.

Skul, Level 58 Elite Rare Spawn, Stratholme

June 03, 2009

Skul is Level 58 elite rare spawn that can be found in Stratholme, like Hearthsinger Forresten, he seems to have quite a few different spawn points. He doesn't drop anything as awesome as the Piccolo of the Flaming Fire , but he does drop a lot of different blues and greens.

Stratholme and Scholomance, Piccolo of the Flaming Fire, Hearthsinger Forresten

June 04, 2009

After finishing Blackrock Depths I headed for Stratholme and then Scholomance, I was still grinding for Argent Dawn rep and finally hit exalted today. Now a great many of the mobs in both instances continue to grant rep right up to level 80 the grind really has speeded up, specially for any human charactors. The highest rep pay off is Baron Rivendare in Stratholme who gets you a total of 440 Argent Dawn rep (with the Human Diplomacy racial, 400 for all other races), you get 110 rep for the kill and another 330 if Rivendare's Argent dawn hostage survives. There is also a very slim chance that Baron Rivendares mount will drop. So many people have the Baron's horse now it isn't funny, I have grinded for it on three different characters and have never seen it drop once, yet a great many people seem to get it on their first Rivendare kill. The mini bosses in both Stratholme and Scholomance give 55 rep each (50 for all non human races). I am starting to suspect that...
