Pegasus cloak loot rights - Paying 8k
 
The cloak basically needs 4 people to help with hunt nowadays. This can essentially boil down to 2k per person to hopefully finish it in an hour or so.

PM me to discuss this further.

Just so you know, the cloak doesnt drop every time QM spawns. You will be lucky to see one QM spawn every 45 min or so given the patch changes, and it usually takes at least 3-4 QM spawns to get the peggy cloak, unless you're super lucky. I got two cloaks in four hours before the patch, and now I can only assume it will take longer. Good luck getting someone to do that for 8k.

come at me with 50k

Hm... seems like that was what someone paid just last week.. I know cloak doesn't drop every time. Since it was 4k before, I figured double the price would suffice.. In either case. Keep comments like "good luck with that ridiculous price" out of someone's thread in EC forum and PM them instead. I did say to PM me to DISCUSS it further, as in.. 8k isn't my final offer.

I like how my price of 4K became the rule of thumb for everyone on the server. I just made up that arbitrary amount (which was 3.5K at one point) because most people used to charge 5K, and I wanted nonstop business ha.

If you are helping with your cloak, only need 3 people, so 2K a person would be 6K.

3 people on spawn points and one bard/druid/ranger killing the calf and lioness placeholder...which are a bit harder to find now.

I'm showing Alorae, who has another thread somewhere about buying a cloak, how to find placeholders probably some time this weekend. Maybe you two could join up.

Zanderr I remember when you started this Service! I seem to also remember showing you the spawn mechanics! I can't remember though if I was on Kaptan(druid) Brewdal(bard) or Handsom(monk)!

Good to see you kept up on it.

I needs me a cloak too <3

I wasn't quoting your price of 4k as the standard, Zander.. I honestly felt that was the most fair price with the amount of time put in. I believe for services like this, a 2k(max) per hour rate is acceptable since that's twice the amount someone can make "consistently" (meaning things like Hill Giants cash flow, not items like Fungi/FBSS) whilst farming something else. I actually paid 2k (voluntarily) to the druid that helped me obtain cloak pre-patch last time although it figures he hasn't been on since then.

Someone else is selling services for the cloak for 15k at this time and I am not totally sure I want to spend that much yet. I would really like to hear from some people how long it takes to spawn Quillmane now as opposed to a month ago.

Zander, I am lvl 1 currently but that's why I was paying for 4 people. Although I can at least sit at a spawn location at that level so maybe 3 is doable. However, with the current state of finding PH's, would two people be a lot better nowadays to look for them?

I would be down to help Zander, I am still in need of one since our days just before the patch with IB

You could easily guard one of the south spawns and have a placeholder killer run over when Quillmane spawns.

In regards to two people doing placeholders, it might be easier to have two but not entirely sure. I believe the lioness and calf are both wanderers in the same area. Not sure if two people running around checking mobs in the same area would help much more. Honestly though, bard would probably be best for this. I'm thinking about making a guide about this in which I highlight placeholder regions and corrected Quillmane paths because the wiki is somewhat wrong on Quillmane's pathing.

Most useful tip that I don't care if people know about I'm done selling cloaks for cash. Placeholders can be targeted by a hotkey with the macro "/target #" with no quotes. This will automatically target the correct lioness and calf (Only one of each can be up at a time, and they will continue to spawn regardless of Quillmane spawning). Seriously, this is the most important thing to know about spawning Quillmane. This was necessary to figure out which lioness to kill in the past, but eventually I didn't need it anymore because I memorized all of the random pathing the lioness could do. I can show you these pathing a for free in game or I'll make a guide if there is enough interest.

My theory about new calf is that is similar or maybe even identical pathing to the lioness in terms of spawn spots. This will need to be tested. However, the hotkey macro still works to target the calf.

P.S. Sorry about assuming you were quoting my price; it was just a coincidence that the price you listed was the price I had in my thread.
