I just came back to wow after many years off. To give an idea it’s been since Legion. I came back to my old faithful hunter and just dinged him to 70. Now I want to go back and get some unique pets that I don’t have. I came across that you can tame cloud serpent from the Order of the Cloud Serpent. I looked up a few rep grind videos with the egg grind and decided to start it. I’m not having any luck finding them in game. Has this method been removed since SL? Thanks in advance for the feedback.
You must learn a special skill to tame Cloud Serpents, which is different to the skill required to tame other Lesser Dragonkin. Pandaren hunters gain the skill automatically, but hunters of other races must learn it from the tome How to School Your Serpent, which may purchased from San Redscale at The Arboretum in The Jade Forest. You require Exalted standing with The Order of the Cloud Serpent to read this tome, but the learned skill is account-wide. You can even purchase and read this tome on a non-hunter character.
Do you have any other characters that are exalted?
The method is still there as of this summer, when I used the eggs to get reputation. There should be an add on or list of way points for tomtom that will help with finding them –– it took me a few days. I’m not sure why you haven’t found any. Is there a chance that you’re already exalted?
I’ll give you a little tip some used back in MoP when we were initially starting the egg farm for Cloud Serpents. Turn down all your graphics- especially things like ground clutter and environment detail. Once everything is as low as it can really go- get on your flying mount and fly around the islands/stones where the eggs spawn.
You should be able to see the eggs clearly if you’re flying far enough out that the foliage/bushes don’t load in to cover the eggs until you fly in closer to pick them up. Happy egg hunting!
