Yeah this wasn't classic at all

But at least now you know which mob is the PH rather than clearing all of karana with a mage pet

The whole mechanic here for spawning quill isnt classic compared to live. on live you find the 45 sec mob and thats the Pher just have to kill over and over and its a random creature type not always a calf or Lioness. The spawning system here is just whatever they came up with for some reason.

Lioness has always been random. Since when is calf random? There a link to this information?

Lioness has always been random and still is.

The change was to the elephant calf. The calf is now zonewide, random, roaming spawn. Check the patch notes.

Combine this with the nerf to Tracking skill.. and I'd rather camp 3 Rasters than one Peggy cloak.

Hmmm this isn't classic either, is it? It seems he'd be too rare.

Welp, guess I may not be doing Quillmane cloaks for people for 4K anymore. Ha

[zanderklocke]

Still can't find anything in patch notes about Quillmane calf. Can someone link me the info/quote and bold it. I'm probably looking in the wrong spot.

This is how Quill should work:

You know how easy it was to get QM to spawn with the previous static calf spawn? And it still took hours and hours sometimes to get a cloak to drop, and you had to watch out for people constantly sniping QM from you.

Now, imagine how hard it is to trigger QM now. But she still drops the cloak at the same shitty rate.. And people will snipe her even MORE than they used to.

I wouldn't camp a Peggy Cloak for 100k.

With ranger track broken (from what I hear) its basically impossible to farm this atm anyway.

This is why the mage epic used to be extraordinarily difficult.

I just confirmed they both do spawn, and path. All that changed with the patch was ensuring random spawn location of the placeholders.
