Flying in style, part II

October 29, 2007

Tonight I hit exalted with the Netherwing faction. After standing face to face with Illidan himself and riding back to Shattrath on a Netherwing dragon, I could finally pick up my new mount. Behold the Onyx Netherwing Drake in all its awe-inspiring, uhm, awesomeness:

Working on the Netherwing faction has taken up most of my gaming time lately. So, after hitting exalted, what’s next? I’ll probably work on getting my cooking skill up (more on that in a later post). Also, I’ll start doing more heroics for the Primal Nethers. I’ll hopefully be back in Karazhan soon as well.

The other night I finally got my epic flying mount, a Swift Green Windrider to be exact. It has taken me a long, long time to raise the 5200 gold. I even ended up selling five Primal Mights, that I had set aside for the waist and chest pieces of my Primal Intent set. However, it was totally worth it. The riding speed is super nice, of course. Grab a Riding Crop and you’ll be breaking the speed limit like nobody’s business. Also, getting to 300 riding skill means that I can get started with the Netherwing faction daily quests, the point of these being the nether drake flying mount available at exalted reputation.
