      Wrong. The achievement you mean is Northern Exposure - when you've killed one rare, you complete that achievement and unlock this one.

    It's definitely up there.


    I didn't know this existed until I completed Northern Exposure.

      If you don't want to wear your fingers out, you can use the addon "_NPCScan" at <http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/info12995-_NPCScan.html> to find all of the rares without spamming any keys or clicks.  Just leisurely fly around the zones and let the addon tell you when it finds something.

      It works for all locales, and has the same range as your average targeting macro.  Here's a shot of the options menu with its list of NPCs to find:


      Just be sure to read the instructions!

    I just killed King Krush in Sholozar :-(. As a hunter i had aimed to tame him ( i use a devilsaur as my main pet anyway) but a mage got to him first before i could, so instead i helped her kill him. Better than nothing i guess, i was actually looking for Loq when i cam across him but i think most hunters hate this achievement as it makes the ones we want even harder to get when you guys are all killing them off.

    I'm now going to go sell is ring on AH...most buy outs are 150g, so i suppose some good has come of this even if i feel a tad annoyed. =

      You were probably very lucky, because i had the same thing, but after looking around at the inn, i saw a hunter with a pet that looked suspiciously much like my rare. I still went to the spawn spot, but it was nowhere to be found.

I immediately thotted him, flew to spawn spot, saw him, and then saw him run away from me. took me a while to catch up, and i managed to aggro him just before an ally druid. Soloed him pretty easy as DK, and got me my Northern exposure achievement.

    Yeah, I agree that finding and killing these rares is so addictive!  I was about to get my 4th in one day- and as I was typing out in gchat for anyone else to get credit for the kill too, an orc hunter comes and nabs it!  Grab these when you see them.  Oh well, wasn't the TLPD, got him already so I'm sure I'll see the rare again!  You should just make the macro listed already and spam as you are flying over an area- you might get lucky!  Oh, and on the server I play on, these blues don't sell for much at all! :(

    This achievement is actually easier than most people think. Instead of wasting hours on macros that you have to spam click everywhere you go in hopes that you are in the right place at the right time AND think to spam your macro for target every rarespawn, go get the addon NPC Scan. It automatically scans for ANY nearby rarespawns, flashes an animation on your screen and makes the sound of a horn. You can then click the animatimation and it will automatically target it if you are still within targetting range. The only frusteration to this is if you are on a flight path and fly over one. But it will save you weeks and alot of stress.

The BoE gear sells well and I passed some on to my low-mid 70's alts as the stats prove to challenge any heroic boss drops you might pick up at those levels. I play on Hydraxis server and have met a couple others closing in (4-5 rares to go) but I agree about the title. Clearly WAY harder than the stupid Explorer title...fly/run around the map until you "discover" an area. Please...that was easy as pie.

    but this goofy bird, ive yet to see it wild.  i had a particularly annoying stretch where i hunter had tamed it and constantly set off npcscan.  i had to clear the cache several times a day while this dude leveled in the basin.

    i practically live there anyway.  camping, random fly arounds during the day, checking before i leave for work in the morning...  all for 25 ach points and a mediocre (at best) thing to /flex over.

    i do tire of the hunter qq about killing their pets.  id never kill while one was mid tame, and if someone arrived before me, id let him have it (had to do this with Loque ><) but i dont really see any more virtue in going for a cool looking pet over going for an achievement.  as a hunter, i know they arent going for Loque because of the awesome dps spirit beasts put out, its all for the looks :P
