Damn, some of you guys play the way I do. If we were on the same server we could all get together and farm little phoenix pets in that Sunwell dungeon. 

[Rendakor]

It's actually the phoenix mount that drops in Sunwell; the little phoenix pet drops in Magister's Terrace (off the same boss, actually).

Phoenix mount drops in the T5 raid in Netherstorm, which is the Naaru spaceship, not Sunwell.

I think by Sunwell dungeon he probably means MgT, rather than the raid

Whatever, I have the Karazhan flaming horse mount! Who needs a silly Phoenix?

[Lakov_Sanite]

headless horseman mount?

[Paelos]

No, The Attunemen Mount from Karazhan, Midnight. It's a flaming undead horse with fangs. Arguably the coolest ground mount I have in the game.

[Lakov_Sanite]

I know, but isn't the headless horseman mount the same model, except it flies?

[K9]

Same model, different skin I think.

[Paelos]

Same model, different skin I think.

The key point is that the horse has FANGS. It's a vampire horse that's on fire. Win! 

[Lakov_Sanite]

But there's a vampire horse on fire "that flies" with the new mount speed changes, I really want one now.

[Paelos]

That horse has no fangs. Not a vampire.

[Typhon]

I wanted that horse to be cool, I really did... maybe it's really cool in-game?  I bet that's it.  Those pictures make it look stupid.

[K9]

I should probably have a go at farming him on my priest. Not sure how well it would go, although the new changes to disc and such might make it easier.

[Sjofn]

I did Karazhan roughly TEN ZILLION TIMES and I never once saw that motherfucker drop.

[Chimpy]

I did Karazhan roughly TEN ZILLION TIMES and I never once saw that motherfucker drop.

I saw it twice. When I got it, and again a few months later. Of course, the second time I didn't actually see it because unique items wouldn't let you see the roll icon back then.

[Paelos]

Those pictures make it look stupid.

That's fine, I'll just feed your opinions to my flaming vampire horse! 

[Lantyssa]

My green proto-drakes scoff at your vampire horse.

(Seriously, it's just so much cooler looking.  My Druid didn't ever use flight form because green proto-drakes are awesome.)

Is searing totem broken?

[Shrike]

Is searing totem broken?

No, just tempermental as hell.

If this is referring to its behavior (or lack thereof) on dummies, it's not broken, it just has some issues with dummies (though, let a critter walk by and it's kitty bar the door!). What I suspect is going on is the dummy is showing up to the totem as tagged from the umpteen bazillion people that were beating on it before you got there. It won't attack a tagged target--ostensibly to prevent it from breaking CC. Also, it won't attack until you throw a flame shock on. It likes flame shock--like draws to like, apparently. Or if it sees a critter. It has a real hate-on for critters.

[Ashamanchill]

Hey! So do I!

[Sheepherder]

It's an intended feature.  It's won't attack a target not attacking you unless you "mark" it with flame shock.  Doomguard/Infernal works the same for Bane of Agony and Bane of Doom on a warlock.

[Rasix]

Heh, two full system locks in the past 3 days.  I'm guessing some of my "updated" addons aren't working too well.

[Selby]

Heh, two full system locks in the past 3 days.

There's some bugs that cause some people to crash out when zoning that are not necessarily add-on related.

You are correct. I'd have called it the raid if I meant the raid. Couldn't recall the dungeon name or the name of the Island. Quel'Thas of WTF it is.

[Azazel]

Yeah, this. Doing godforsaken crazy things like zoning into an instance can (and frequently, have) caused whole system freezes for myself, guildmates and friends.

Oh, that thing. I've seen them about occasionally. I probably would never choose to ride it myself, but glad you enjoy it if you got one.

[Shrike]

Frost dps for death knights is the shiz-nite. Two hand, of course.

Unholy was giving me hives. Clunky, weirdo priority and pet management. 

A switch to frost had a tolerable priority, hits like a frieight train, and actually can burn rune power like no tomorrow. Kinda miss death coill, but 10k frost strikes makes that a vague wistfulness that's easily forgotten with the next 15k pt obliterate or 8k howling blast (and that's so going to get nerfed; crazy stuff).

[Rasix]

My crashes have both happened during the horseman event right when someone starts it.  Could be something in 4.01 acting oddly with the event.  I didn't have a problem with it last year at all.

It probably isn't my addons, but I'm being safe.  It's weird having no idea what sort of DPS you're doing.

I made macros, but you'll also be fine if you don't mouse over the pumpkin thing.

Raven God mount FTW (finally dropped for my druid after farming it night after night for months)

I think Blizzard looks at your characters and the RNG drops a mount for the character least likely to be played. My rotten DK got Rivendare's mount on her 3rd run through Strat UD, the brewfest kodo 2nd run and the headless horseman's mount first time - and I have only log her on for these events :D

Right, thanks a lot.

My paladin got the Headless Horseman mount!

 

I would've PREFERED it on my death knight but whatever!

[Typhon]

Maybe you could be an Eeevil Paladin?  (or Veterinarian)

[Lantyssa]

My paladin got the Headless Horseman mount!

Hate.

Nah, actually happy that you got it on the third year of trying.
