Breakfast Topic: Your WoW goals

A Druid, a Hunter, and a Core Hound Go to Strat Dead
BigRedKitty — ... he only has 40k health.” So, of course, we grabbed aggro from Core Hound. /ashamed But a quick Feign Death and reposition resulted in us smooshing Baron before the second wave of skeletons caused any problems. We beat the timer with three minutes left when Baron hit the deck! We would’ve had more had we not been noobs and actually killed the acolytes in the Ziggys at the appropriate time and not had to run back. No, his mount didn’t drop, thank goodness. Can you image the horror if it had? “We ...

No One Can Do it Better
airee.net — ... Furthering my nostalgic pursuits within the game, many of us have taken to visiting Stratholme multiple times throughout the day in order to acquire the Deathcharger’s Reins from Baron Rivendare.  It may seem silly to spend our time doing this when we could be otherwise preparing for the expansion, but we find it ridiculously fun and there are people in our little group who joined following The Burning Crusade’s release, meaning that they had little opportunity to explore many of the dungeons that existed before the expansion’s release.  We’ve ...

You Want an Original Death Charger, Right?
DeathKnight.info — ... is making ground, but what hardcore Death Knight wouldn’t kill to have the original Death Charger? Yes, I know that Horde will have this option easier, but it still won’t be the same unless you get it by knocking ...

So Many Mounts and Nothing to Ride!
airee.net — ... I’ve always enjoyed trying to acquire many of the special mounts available within the game.  The Deathcharger’s Reins, the ...

Death Knight on a Baron Mount!
DeathKnight.info — I’m not going to call this a world first or anything, but Siggo on Mannoroth sent in a picture of his Death Knight for the Newborn page and low and behold he is sitting atop a Baron Mount! congrats on your mount! Anyone else farming this now? ...

Another Level 80 Ding. And running with a Spirit Beast.
steady shot — ... (normal difficulty) because it has a good range of loot, and our pally tank knows the place like the back of his hand from grinding the original Stratholme instance for a fancy horse . The team was ...

Happy New Year 2009~ (and hi Raven Mount^^)
Frostbolt, a World of Warcraft Blog — ... Lets say this is a late Christmas Gift for me It was either this one or Baron’s mount (Deathcharger’s Reins), but I also had a terrible luck with drop rates over there :S ...

Let’s Ride
Almost Evil — Sometimes it is nice to just hang out in a city.A Traveler’s Tundra Mammoth, two times Mekgineer’s Chopper, and a Baron’s Deathcharger … is not a bad showing.

Guest Spot Tuesday
One Among Many — ... or quest farming can net you some neat name tags in your spare time. This is assuming, of course, that the game keeps you that interested to play for reasons other than gear. (I know quite a few readers play on RP servers, so I'll take it for granted that you do things besides raid.) Personally, I've got a short-term plan to farm Stratholme (the old one, post-Culling) for Runecloth, Argent Dawn reputation towards the title, and a shot at the mount and Feat of Strength. After that, finish up any outstanding Outland heroic ...

Around Azeroth: Worth the wait
WoW.com — ... Baron Rivendare's mount may be significantly easier to get in Wrath of the Lich King -- it's now a 1% drop as opposed to the previous one in five thousand chance -- but it's still quite a grind. After winning the rare steed, Mat decided to immortalize his new prize in a few screenshots from around Northrend."The scene is all that the game is to me," he writes. "The desire to explore the beautiful world of Azeroth and discover truly epic moments like this." I hope you and your horse are very happy together, Mat. But not in that way. ...

Scattered Thoughts
HuntsmansLodge.com | A World of Warcraft Hunter Site — ... Although I do enjoy soloing old content, I haven't done much of that since WotLK was released. It's possible I may cover some solo Huntering topics aside from pet taming, but not likely. I did my fair share of solo dungeoning just before WotLK while trying to attain the Baron's Mount from timed Stratholme runs (which I never saw), and the ...

We’re Back!
WoWenomics — ... Astute readers will notice the glaring omission of fish on the above list. That’s right, in an extended vacation that included a solid 19 days of fishing I didn’t catch a single fish. The guys next to me caught fish. The people that worked the fishing boat caught fish. The little girl who went out fishing for her first time with her daddy caught fish. But, it seemed, it was all a RL version of Deathcharger’s Reins for me this time out. ...

Zarhym drops hints about Onyxia encounter, mount drop rate
WoW.com — ... That said, you probably shouldn't expect to just waltz in and get your whole raid outfitted in matching black drakes. The mount drops one at a time, and the drop rate is pretty low. Think pre-nerf Baron Rivendare's Deathcharger mount low. ...
