It’s been a good couple of days for attaining mounts!
Yesterday I got the final Skyshard I needed for the mount off Alani.
And today, I was running my last toon through the daily “Zul’Gurub Raptor Grind” and fussing to hubby about having run it enough times that I should have gotten the drop already, when lo and behold it dropped! I’ve run that for the past month on 4-5 toons a day. Yes, persistence is my key… and it pays off, usually sooner than it did here 😛

Nice! Grats on your presistance paying off!
Thanks! Always nice when it does! Now I just need to find the Pygmy Direhorn and the Tiny Red Carp… along with the other mounts I’m still seeking 😀
Always fun to have something to chase too!
Grats on both the mounts :). What will you be going for next now you have the dino?
I think my next goal will either be the Stonecore and Vortex Pinnacle mounts… or the bones for the dino mount.
Yay on both mounts! I don’t think I’ll ever get Alani… I am too lazy to farm.
I basically just did the Golden Lotus dailies every day on Askevar [actually probably 75-80% of the time] and occasionally on alts when they became BoA. I never farmed mobs for them.
About 3 came from mob drops and the other 7 from the box at the end.
