Battle For Azeroth
Patch 8.2.5 | Posted: September 24, 2019
To spawn the Fresh Jelly Deposit, players must participate in the rare Honeyback Harvester event (indicated by a star icon on the minimap). Both Alliance and Horde are eligible. The event has multiple spawn locations in Stormsong Valley.
Speaking with the Honeyback Harvester will begin the event which consists of waves of hostile mobs. After defeating enough waves, a lootable object will appear and can contain two possible pets: Papi and Sunsoaked Flitter

Legend has it that these purple butterflies came from a place called Devil's Island.
After months and months of attempts, I finally looted Papi on one of my Horde characters. Got it on a 40 wave run.
After lots of farming I just had something amazing happen. A DOUBLE PAPI DROP. I got a S/S and P for breeds. Gonna keep the P and sell the S/S.

Unreal end to the farm!!!
Did not have jelly magnet active. Did not have goggles active. I am exalted with bees. Random facts before people ask questions I know most of these facts are likely irrelevant though :P
Update: Sold the S/S for exactly the region average sale price in TSM 311.5k (:
I just got this today on my horde hunter soloing the event. I think I got to about wave 25 or so.
I've looted the red and yellow ones three times each so far... but still no Papi for me.
Just had Papi drop today at end of bee event from the jelly deposit, no jelly magnet in use (one in inventory), no butterfly net (or whatever it is, not wasting time with it), not sure of how many waves were completed but it was at least 15.
So far I've seen it in P/P S/S and P/B. It sells on Dalaran for 150k to 225k. No idea how you catch it
Trying to get him on 4 characters and from what've I seen, Papi is totally random drop from Jelly Deposit after beating wave 15 or higher. No special items required. It's just a rare loot with no more than 5% drop rate.
For those that got the Papi - did you have the Jelly Magnet buff active at the time? I wonder if that is what makes it drop or if it increases the chance at getting one.
Thanks.
It drops from the events now. It dropped for me and I saw it drop at other events so apparently its not terribly rare. I'm a little disappointed. I was kinda hoping it would be a riddle to unravel using the butterfly net.
This Pet dropped for me today. I can confirm that it drops in Stormsong.
Having done a number of bee events since Papi started dropping I would say the drop rate is about 1 in 20, or 1 in 30, from fresh jelly. I am mostly seeing one person in raid getting it each event.
It sounds like this was bugged. I am also getting quests again off the rares in an event too. So it sounds like its not a one time and done quest.
I came here to say that i ran into someone today with sweet Papi. I asked how it came to be that she had it. She told me she just looted it off the jelly at the end of the event. No crazy secrets done, not even a huge amount of waves. So here's to hunting events for Papi! <3
Someone found one today picking up the jelly. First day doing it too. :)
papi dropped for 2 people in the same event. wave 16 about 20 people in group
I just drop Papi looting the Fresh Jelly Deposit! The event was already started and I wasnt in gruop. I dont know how many waves but a couple after the Yeti was killed. At this point I dont know what to think: maybe Papi was bugged and now fixed, or got a very low drop rate or was scheduled to drop after few weeks...
My reputation is honored, so no Net or nothing else was used by me.
Hey, I've been doing some digging and came across this old newspaper article about a butterfly industry on (the real) Devil's Island. It refers to "the art of capturing the rare Morphos butterfly", suggesting a technique of some kind. Morphos are bright blue instead of purple but they're iridescent so maybe?

Anyway, I searched "how to catch morphos" and found this video which shows a guy using a reflective device with his butterfly net to catch them.

I have no idea if any of this is even remotely relevant, but since nobody's found Papi yet I'd throw up what I've been able to find and maybe someone will have an idea on what to try.
Hoping to find Papi soon!
It doesn't have anything to do with how many waves. Blizzard said "we haven't figured it out yet". Getting to higher waves isn't "figuring something out". I suspect it does include the butterfly net because what other purpose would it serve? It might say it comes the jelly deposit because you buy the net with jellies. Is there a "Devil's Island" somewhere in game?
People are reporting getting to wave 30, but still no drop for Papi. Still missing something, but what?
Edit: Erased my original post accidentally, because it shouldn't make me update it. This happened today, 10/9:
I got papi today on wave 14. I had the goggles on, bumbles out and got the bee-utiful trails buff during the event. I think it may just be bumbles though, as the next event someone got it with just bumbles out. I will keep testing this theory.
