So far I've gotten one albino buzzard and one porcupette from her (and ironically a second porcupette from a MoP tamer the same day...go figure).

I'm gonna keep an alt on her just for the chance at it but mostly for an excuse to slowly level one.

I started an alt at Crysa at 70. He is now 73. No Buzzard. :P

My Demon Hunter has done nothing but the daily battle with her and is currently half way through level 103. I suspect I will get to level 110 without getting a buzzard, and will have no idea how to play my Demon Hunter....

I started doing this battle on a lvl 80 alt and after the battle today I'll ding 86, still with no freaking buzzard. I've also got no pets left to level with it so it's even more tedious!

Good luck to those who are still waiting for it :)

Worst part IMO is the buzzard comes in 4 breeds. I did finally get one and so did a friend, but neither was a breed I wanted - and let's face it, I'll never actually use this pet for anything, but I still feel the need to be nitpicky. :(

Heh. And when you get to The Broken Isles with it, you'll be up against 110 mobs with your 100 gear. Got one buzzard but I might sell it as they'll never been as valuable as they are now and I've got a lvl 48 alt camped there to try for another one, Which will come. Eventually.

Am I the only one who has this problem constantly? Maybe not ending as 110s, but anything definitely more than 100? The exp coming not only from pet battles, but world events, exploration (a boosted character says hi), old dailies etc.

Even when I tried to not exp before the Isles I ended with a 102.

E: A typo.

So you make some gear or buy some time walking gear and you'll be fine

Yeah, I have an alt parked there in heirlooms. Went from level 40 to level 50 just doing it every day since I got them there.

What is the preferable breed, btw?

Since a flyer and it already has a speed boost with flying racial in my opinion the h/p one is the best. More health to keep racial flying buff longer and power to hit harder

I was looking at either H/P or H/H myself... I think either would be a valid choice. What have I gotten instead? H/B and H/S, of course!

I think the same. I don't have very much experience with the health management on flyers, but the hit points spread here is decent.
Battle Pet Breed ID doesn't know about the H/B one by the way. :shock:

Seriously, is there any pet that is useful, or even would have been useful in the H/S breed? Not counting [pet]Argi[/pet], who's in fact closer to S/S, and the pre-nerf [pet]Pandaren Water Spirit[/pet].

I leveled my level 100 hunter nearly to level 102 just off of her. He is parked there, I log on him, do daily, log off. I have received a Porcupette and a bunch of rare battle stones, but no Buzzard.

I had to purchase it second hand.

179 health difference between the H and P breeds, 29 point difference in power. It is a toss up for me though I do like health in flyers, but as I don't plan on really using it I think a H/P would be fine.

I know my friend rolled their eyes when they gave me their buzzard and my first response was, "Oh, H/S... you need wow token money?" I'd chose the H/B over the H/S in this situation any day.

With newer pets that are harder to get I always double check breeds against the information on the profile page here. Wouldn't want to sell or trade off a pet and then find out later that it was a breed I wanted.

I parked my horde alt in front of the Tamer... I battle almost every day since she was there, My alt was a lock level 38, now she is 42... never drop the Albino buzzurd.

I wonder what level will be my Lock, when finally I will able to drop it! :D
