We saw the Exodar and Stormwind boat arrive on the other docks at least a dozen times, but the Darnassus boat simply did not come. I opened a ticket and logged out, and when I logged back in later that day (still on the Auberdine docks), the GM had answered. Of course he said there was no bug and everything worked fine. Anyway, finally the boat came and I was able to finish that achievement. Pretty annoying, and the usual denials from Blizzard.Celebrandilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09186466677488312764noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3529183485378908367.post-14035927139767710502009-11-24T20:23:12.571-06:002009-11-24T20:23:12.571-06:00@Celebrandil I forgot all about Feign Death! That ...@Celebrandil I forgot all about Feign Death! That would have been much easier, I concur.<br /><br />@Shaakka very valid points. I considered using tracking but then I imagined that Hunter's Mark would be more accurate. That's another good tip with the starting area.<br /><br />@Wookie7 hey that's a great tip regarding those snacks. I had forgotten they existed. I even know the recipe if I'm not mistaken.<br /><br />@Myka yeah I almost felt bad about the Hordes that were on the boat to Darnassus. But then again, they were also jerks when I attempted Undercity.Darth Solohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01110818057322485070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3529183485378908367.post-35847911463771741172009-11-24T13:09:04.955-06:002009-11-24T13:09:04.955-06:00I was very luck and not died making the Pilgrim...I was very luck and not died making the Pilgrim's Peril achievement. I'm Horde and is a pain, every time, to make these achievements who requires to visit all the enemy capitals. Darnassus and Exodar is the worse, because they are all in islands only acessible for boats. This time, no level 80 is in the way, only a guard in Darnassus was trying to stop me, but I run away and lost the aggro, and immediatelly, came back and sit in a chair and run back to the boat to Exodar, and there, only a low level draenei greet me. :DMykanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3529183485378908367.post-74885575873479124402009-11-24T10:52:26.942-06:002009-11-24T10:52:26.942-06:00I absolutely despise the Turkinator achievement. ...I absolutely despise the Turkinator achievement. It's been so irritating, that I decided against going for this holiday. I literally tried to get it for 3 hours, and got stacks of 31, 33, and 35 before running across someone else and losing the stack. Aaarrrgghhh! And, due to a job and family, I am not sacrificing my sleep time to try to do it at 3am. <br /><br />However, I do have some advice for others being frustrated -- especially non-Hunters. First, get Tracker Snacks -- and turn off any other gathering tracking that you may have on. Tracker Snacks will track all beasts on your mini-map. Next, whether Alliance or Horde, go to Tirisfal Glade. It's more open than Elwynn Forest. The area right next to the Bulwark has a large selection of Turkey's, and since they are the only neutral critters in that area, only they will show up yellow on your mini-map. And, of course, try to do it during off-hours. Good luck!Wookie7noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3529183485378908367.post-30156172646647509232009-11-24T03:39:19.548-06:002009-11-24T03:39:19.548-06:00I was in Dalaran yesterday looking for some rogues...I was in Dalaran yesterday looking for some rogues but obviously they were all being ganked and either fled the city or didn't bother removing the turkey buff. But then I saw a night elf, gnome and dwarf rogue dancing at the fountain, all level 1, all from the same guild, and they immediately removed the buff when you shot them. I could cross three races off my list, and that was very sweet. A really nice service, shows that there are still decent people on my realm.Celebrandilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09186466677488312764noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3529183485378908367.post-14196161151775152632009-11-24T02:57:24.253-06:002009-11-24T02:57:24.253-06:00"as a Hunter it's easy because in additio..."as a Hunter it's easy because in addition to your /target Wild Turkey macro you can throw a Hunter's Mark on the damn turkey and instantly see it on the map."<br /><br />You can simply track beasts. Yep, the turkeys don't count as critters but as regular beasts. This makes things a lot easier for a hunter.<br /><br />Another tip that might work for the Turkey Lurkey: if you're having problems finding that elusive dwarf rogue (or -insert race- rogue), go to that race's starting zone. In my realm, I've found that people are simply rolling rogue alts to help their friends getting the achievement. Chances are they will let you have a shot at them too (I found a very kind dwarf rogue that was just sitting there, removing the turkey disguise as soon as he was getting one, so everybody could shoot him).Shaakkanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3529183485378908367.post-21205758500500427352009-11-24T00:35:08.264-06:002009-11-24T00:35:08.264-06:00As a hunter I didn't care about the Sethekk tr...As a hunter I didn't care about the Sethekk trash, I just ran a bit and then feigned in a safe corner. Got up again, waited until the cooldown expired, started running, lied down, etc etc. Sethekk Halls is small so you'll get to the boss pretty quick and at 80 he's a pushover.<br /><br />If you are Horde, go to the field below the Scarlet Monastery (the one with all the spiders) to get your Turkinator achievement. I got it there on the first try, during busy hours, but I was the only one there. I failed several times trying to do it around Brill.<br /><br />I would have gotten my Pilgrim title yesterday but right before I could shoot my last rogue, someone else beat me to it and I failed to stop the cast. ^^ So my last Turkey Shooter was gone and now I have to wait until tonight to finish another daily.Celebrandilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09186466677488312764noreply@blogger.com
