What's the speed of this mount?

280%, like the normal epic mounts

I'm more interested in what the Nether Ray is like at this point.

Earning 5k gold sucks. I was really hoping that by going through this quest line you would be able to achieve an epic mount without the need to spend gobs of gold. At this rate, probably not worth the trouble if you still have to buy the riding skill.

So are the quests just repeatable collect x and kill y to gain rep after the intial chain? Does the chain take you into any of the instances? I'm just wondering how possible this will be for me since I am not a raider. I'm hoping you will not need to go into any of the Raid instances to get this.

Jesus. If i hear one more person QQ about 5k gold...

I earnt about 3.5k gold just getting to freekin level 70. Without tradeskills, without visiting the auction house. I just got that much from vendoring greens and quest reward money.

Seriously...man...dont complain.

Its SO easy to farm 5k gold...and anyway. This is intended as a reward for those who allready got their epic flying mount, not an easy route for the lazy beggers that want everything without any effort at all.

Stop QQ'ing and start farming and you'll be surprised how fast you get the money. I got mines about 2 days after i dinged 70, which was about 9 days after TBC release.

Joni, the poster in one of your links, has published a small guide in another thread. Worth checking out:

@7 Erm no the netherdrake was first just said to be a reward to those who got exalted with Netherwing, not a reward to those who already have an epic flying mount and imo 5000g is hard to earn so why do you go fuck yourself

Am I the only person more interested in the trinket than the mount?

I loves me some trinkets!

I agree with Dabura on this one. You're probably one of those people who sold the Mage books for 300 gold then complained when your grouped Mage didn't have the 70 food/water to give you. Quit yer bitching. Other people have a worse time grinding for gold than you do, so if you want to help alleviate the trouble why not share the wealth.

You say how long it takes for a non-human, what about a human?

That is such a cool event at the end! A feeling that a reputation with a group gets you more than gear and instead is shown by them saving you. I am definitely doing this.

Grinding gold is EASY in outland...as long as you're smart about it. Use your professions, kill the right mobs (Nagrand Ogres are my favorite), farm some motes...in 3-4 hours a day I make about 80g, not counting selling stuff on the AH on a low pop server. And you can always, at lvl70, go out to someplace like Tyr's Hand and kill easy stuff for big bucks and

Good luck grinding as a resto druid.

Go respec, you act like it isn't an option. Hell, don't respec and farm with some of your friends, or even better! Get a damage set gear (feral or balance it doesnt really matter) and farm with that w/o respeccing. Tada, you can now kill stuff.

PS I'm also a druid, I've been that route before

If the netherdrakes were easy to get, then they wouldn't be so cool.

Level 70 in 9 days? Get a job and move out of your parent's basement.

Im a 50 point Resto shaman and have an Epic flying mount and about 3k gold in the bank and I raid. I play about 3-4 hours outside of raiding which is about 10-12 hours a week. If you arent playing more than 4 hours a week as a casual you are considered inactive.

Just from doing the quests in shadowmoon I made 500g. With the new quests in 2.1 patch if you cant make 2k gold off them alone you are a nub and need to delete your account and go play another game so we can stop listening to you QQ.

Casuals stop spending your money on useless crap and learn to save. People that QQ about 5k gold for flying mounts are the sort of people that max out there credit cards at christmas and wonder why there financially screwed for the rest of the year.

Take your QQing to some one who cares, my minature violin is in the shop.

Y'know, I was walking around Hellfire the other day and boom, 50g just fell into my pocket. In Outland, even the air is made of gold.

It's easier then the 1k you used to have to pay for the ground epics pre-BC. I know the gold sellers haven't dropped their prices since BC came out and you may actually have to farm a little for access to the BEST mounts in the game, but life is hard for all of us.
