Yeah, but artifacts will go in the toilet next expansion anyway. Because "we're going in a different direction".

>not having fishing artifact to turn you into a shark

Fishing artifact - haven't even started that one. Too late now I guess.

inb4 some kinda nerf to the Fathom Dweller, since everyone can get that one.
as opposed to all the other water mounts not everyone can get? help me a bit here... darkmoon thing, seahorses, ...

hell i have a wonderful idea. i want a goblin engineer submarine. make it require 60 soulbound daily cd mats. gonna fly off the shelves i bet you.

blizz pls hire me.

Didn't know there was a Darkmoon water mount. The seahorse that can be used outside of Vash'jir is in Time-Lost Proto Drake camping territory when it comes to time spent, unless you want to pony up the cash to buy one from the AH. Fathom Dweller is as easy as "kill Kosumoth, get mount", so yes, everyone can get it and it takes an hour or two to clear the "quest" for Kosumoth, as opposed to spending ~1.5m gold on the seahorse if you aren't lucky/persistent enough to find Poseidus up.

Definitely in for a goblin engineer submarine, though.

Ah alright gotcha now. Yeah reins of poseidus runs around 800k on my server. got mine for around 300k i want to say, long ago.
I agree Kosumoth "quest" is easy, albeit a bit too much "squeeze through a hole that isn't even there" in a few places. Hat off to those who solved him.
Darkmoon mount is easy as "fish up xxx# fishies" or "buy xxx# fishies in AH" whichever you prefer.

It's actually not anymore, an undocumented change tuesday (documented, thanks to wowhead) made it so Poseidus spawns every 4 to 6 hours now instead of like twice a week. Same with Poundfist.

Price is gonna drop, but not by too much too soon.

Useful to know. I might try to find him up again, but I doubt it'll ever happen; see TLPD.

Yeah, it'll still sell until people start catching on that's for sure. I'm selling mine if I get one (doubt I will cause I'm not camping for 4 hours before I go to sleep)

Last time I remember seriously camping a mob was Humar the Pridelord, way back around Christmas time of 2006 (must have been on holidays at the time), on my Dwarf Hunter no less. Took me 3 days, dodging all the Horde hunters and the long-ass spawn time. Think it was 12 or 13 hours, and it would reset if he had been killed.

So nervous when I finally got him alone, and a friendly Orc hunter ran past me after I had finished the tame, my heart thumping, and he stopped to /dance in mutual celebration i guess. Those memories will likely stay with me forever. Still have that same Dwarf hunter and my original Humar. Can't imagine I will ever delete them.

The plugin that TSM uses to determine AH data, does it take into account (and throw away) the people that make ridiculous posts to try and inflate numbers for certain markets?
