I won't spend time discussing that add-on here, but once you've familiarized yourself with it, and if you're comfortable editing your own saved variable files by hand, here's a route that captures all the eggs:įor those of you not familiar with Routes, but who are using TomTom or a similar waypoint add-on, here is a list of macros that will show you the way. I highly recommend using the add-on Routes. You should use a 310% mount, the Mount Up guild perk, and zoom your camera all the way in so you're viewing the world in first-person. You'd do well to supplement this with the normal dailies, particularly once you hit Revered. With more and more players becoming aware of the eggs, competition is fierce, and this may not be viable as a way to fully grind the reputation. Rumor is the spawn rate has been nerfed since then (it was considerably higher than Netherwing Eggs or Everfrost Chips, so it may not have ever been intended to be that fast, but it definitely was at the time of this writing). When I did this, the respawn rate appeared to be in the 3-10 minute range (possibly quicker). I see many players swooping low to the ground to check for the eggs that spawn on the ground-this is not necessary, and wastes time.īased on my experience, it seems that up to two of them can be spawned at once, randomly choosing between all of the available spawn points. Note that the game loads in all objects and NPCs within a radius of you, no matter their altitude. There are a few eggs that spawn on the ground, but you'll be able to see them from all the way up at the mountain level. In general, the eggs spawn high up on mountaintops, usually around the edges. Once you've found your first one, you'll know what they look like. The eggs themselves are gray in color, which varies depending on the lighting. Once obtained from the world, they can be immediately turned in to Elder Anli for the repeatable quest Onyx To Goodness, which rewards 500 reputation for Order of the Cloud Serpent (550 with the Mr. The eggs themselves do not start a quest. Similar to Netherwing Egg and Everfrost Chip, Onyx Eggs are a way to circumvent the normal dailies, allowing you to accelerate your way to your lovely cloud serpents. I'm assuming that either the spawn rate is going to be adjusted or the number of 90s is going to take care of it, but if you've only got one or two guys in the area, you can easily get a couple thousand rep for 30 minutes or so (the typical rep gain rate doing the dailies is something like ~1250 per day).Ĭomment by AllaraOnyx Eggs are world objects that spawn in the Windward Isle in The Jade Forest, the primary area where Order of the Cloud Serpent dailies are conducted. in between two mountains, on top of a rock formation or in a pile of bones, etc. If you have all the top tier flight talents and some extra mount speed from your class, you can inspect all of the egg sites in less than two or three minutes, so I ended up finding it just as useful to strafe around the mountains at semi-random.Īlthough the eggs typically spawn in the grassy parts of the mountains, they can uncommonly spawn closer to the ground, i.e.
The eggs can only be found in the confines of Windward Isle if you are on a mountain and it says something else, you won't find any eggs there. There's no particular pattern to their respawn rate and the actual area in which they spawn is very small. they spawn on the sides and tops of some pillar-like mountains, and there are only five of them. You don't need to get a map at all to find these eggs, it won't really help too much either because of the fact that the locations are mostly vertical, i.e. Doing both of these, I went from the opening dailies to Exalted in around four hours, shaving off about 20 days from the intended grind. Also, upvote Ospreyfalcon! Without him, I wouldn't have even half this list.Ĭomment by mooshimanxI don't know if its just the respawn rate or the lack of competition this early in the expansion, but I found around 15 of these in less than 5 minutes in the wee hours of the morning, and was getting around 2-3 every 20 minutes with several other players competing for the eggs earlier in the day. I got my first gold achievement~<3ĮDIT 2: Added Drakkena (commenter below)'s location.
#Onyx for mac rat finder mod
The coordinates should be the same regardless of the mod used.ĮDIT: Short edit.
Comment by TharamaThanks to Ospreyfalcon's (commenter on this page) extremely helpful blog with screenshots, I was able to acquire many eggs, some not screenshotted on the website and have listed the co-ords in a TomTom friendly fashion.
