Two days ago, while going through my regular routine of Dailies and Dungeon runs when I was treated with a very surprising treat:
This was at 10:30 at night. I’m pretty sure that I woke up half of my family with my screaming.
The reins of the Raven Lord has a 1% drop since Blizzard added him as a regular boss in the Heroic Sethekk Halls and being the mount enthusiast, I was trying to get this mount for a long, long time.
131 kills. Statically speaking I should have gotten that mount at the 100th kill. This is why I am not a Math major.
It has been a total of 4 mouths of constantly killing the same three bosses just for one item, but it was worth it because I am riding on a boss that I have grown to loath.
It kind of satisfying that the time I got the mount was the run where I killed him before he went into his Immunity phase.
Now I am done with solo dungeon runs until Mist of Pandaria, where I will be strong enough to solo run the Heroic Utgarde Pinnacle dungeon to try to get the Reins of the Blue Protodrake.
I can’t wait to see this loading screen every day after I ding 90
