Did this in about thirty minutes, killing the trained razorbeaks quite near Aerie Peak. They have a good drop %, are low level so easy as hell to kill, & while waiting for them to respawn which doesn't take long at all you can easily pop down the path to Hillsbrad & kill Granistad, Kudros and the couple of wild gryphons flying about near them for extra feathery goodness.

I hated this quest. Not only were the stupid gryphons spread far apart, but the respawn is slow, and for me at least, the drop rate was horrible. I killed almost 70 just to get the 10 feathers. And my last feather took 20 gryphons. I sincerely hope everyone else has a way better drop rate.

Комментарий от 46186

I also attempted to gather the feathers from the Hinterland Gryphons, but it was too difficult to find any and the drop rate was very disappointing.

After reading a few comments here and on other sites, I tried my luck in Azshara for the Thunderhead Hippogryph's that are located right after entering the area from Ashenvale (you should fly to Splintertree Post and travel the road east). Check here for a map of where to find them: https://www.wowhead.com/classic/npc=6375

The drop rate was quite good for the Long Elegant Feathers, but above all, you have many Hippogryphs to choose from in a relatively small area. Took me no more than 20 minutes.

PS. Beware the giant ;)

Комментарий от Peppermint

These comments are correct. Wasted hours on rare Skylords with crappy drop-rates in Hinterlands. Went to Azshara and got a nice 50% drop-rate from the many Thunderhead Hippogryphs (dark-blue ones) in the southwestern region (southwest of the Horde camp). Well worth the trip!

Комментарий от 38084

good grouping around 17,53...but watch out if you are horde, close to ally territory

Комментарий от Thottbot

There's a bit of gryphons to the far west in that narrow passage by Aerie Peak. The drop rate is ridiculously retarded. I must have killed nearly 30 and only received 5 so far.

Комментарий от Thottbot

Make this quest easier on yourself.

Go to Feralas and kill the Frayfeather Hypogryphs. They DO count towards the quest and definitely drop the long elegant feathers more often than the Hinterlands Gryphons.

There are plenty of them just below the yeti cave around 55,60.

Happy hunting!

Комментарий от Thottbot

I strongly recommend that you go to Azshara. There are Thunderhead Hippogryphs there and in 20min I killed 33 and got the needed 10. Theres alot of them there so happy hunting!

Комментарий от Thottbot

I'd like to add my agreement that these feathers are a horribly rare drop, about one in 8 or so is what I've experienced so far, and I'm only to 7 feathers. If the other areas have better drop rates, I definitely recommend that you go there, because these are bad.

However, I definitely disagree with the previous post about getting the feathers off the trolls of Hiri'watha. I've slaughtered the entire village twice, and while I appreciate all the mageweave and silk, I've not gotten one feather.

Комментарий от Thottbot

The feather's u need frop from the Thunderhead Hippogryph in Azshara, and its lots of them

u will find them on the coords: around 19-56

the Q will be easy =D

greetings Lipton

Комментарий от Thottbot

Just go Feralas and kill the Frayfeather Hippogryph's there. They are loads more of and the drop rate isnt that bad either. They roam @ 54, 64 south-west of the ogres in High wilderness

Finnished there pretty quick :) good luck

Комментарий от Thottbot

Killed about 10 gryphons and nothing dropped (Hinterlands). Teleported to Thunder Bluff, looked in AH and bought 6 for a cheap price. Then went to Feralas and killed 6 frayfeathers- got 3 right away. The last one took about 5 minutes before it dropped but you also get vibrant plumes from these guys so it was worth it.

Комментарий от Thottbot

After reading previous posts I went to try in Feralas. Feather dropped from first one I killed, but then spent 45 minutes not getting any more. Went to Hinterlands where the droprate from the gryphon's at Aerie's Peak was around 1 in 3. Took 30 minutes to finish there.

Комментарий от Thottbot

yes i agree that there should be more gryphs to kill, i ive gained a lvl and almost 1/4 doing this damn quest, and still got 2 feathers to go, i tried feralas, and killed almost 100 hypogrypths, while the xp was good, it gets borinf running around killing same mobs for hrs, then i go back to hinterlands, and ive spent another 5 hrs killing these. theres about 7 ive seen sonewide, and ive killed those named ones too. This quest is the worst drop quest ive seen out of the whole game, ive done 2 lvl 60 alliance toon's, and this one is my horde toon, and never have i seen a more frustratingly BS of a quest, my advice is, if u wanna have fun, skip this quest and grind elsewhere till u can do other quetss here.

Комментарий от Thottbot

The feathers drops from hippogrifs in feralas around 53.67. got them fast=)

Комментарий от Thottbot

You can also get the feathers from any hippogryph in Azshara. They seem to have a great drop rate. I killed maybe 9 or 10 and got 4 feathers. I would definately suggest going there.

Комментарий от Thottbot

the drop rate in feralas is worse then the hinterlands, ive been here an hour already and havent gotten any from the hippo's (yes im killing the right kind), but i had 3 from the few i picked up in the hinterlands.

Комментарий от Thottbot

Took about 20min...the first 3 dropped a feather. Feralas was way faster thanks.

Av

Комментарий от Thottbot

Wish I'd read this last night it would have saved a lot of frustration. Rode round the Hinterlands looking for and killing gryphons for 3 hours and got 3 feathers. Today I did the same and got 2.
Went to Feralas and killed Frayfeather Hippogryphs and got the other 5 feathers I needed in 10 minutes.
Frayfeathers are just south of the yeti cave.

Комментарий от Thottbot

My conclusion: Every place has very low drop rate...

If ur lower then 46, u should stay at hinterlands or mass farm feralas. (pref. hinterlands cos higher drop rate.)

But if ur 47+, absolutely best drop rate at ur lvl is
Thunderhead hippogryphs in Azshara.

Loc: 18,55. For those who hasn't locs (shame on ya) go to south west at valormok.

Ty, and happy hunting. =)

Комментарий от Thottbot

Im telling you right now , if you dont go below aerie peak in The Hinterlands to do this quest, and your running around all over the Hinterlands trying to find these things, you'll be there for DAYS. Theres bout 20 of these hypogriphes in The Hinterlands, not joking. 10-12 of them are spread out all over The Hinterlands, and about 8 of them are right below Aerie Peak. So you have two choices. Run around all over trying to find those 10 spread out ones. Or go below Aerie Peak, kill the 8 that are close to eachother there , and wait for respawns. I tried the hard way , not knowing this batch was down there at Aerie Peak. It took me 2 hours to get 7 feathers... Then i find this place and get my last 3 in a matter of 3-5 minutes.

Комментарий от Thottbot

Geeez, the drop rate is beyond horrible at both places I tried (Hinterlands and Feralas). But, I quested them in Feralas since it helped with oohhhh, three quests at once. I killed about 60 Hippos for the 10 feathers, but I got 20 of another quest item, 10 of another, and 40 of another. It makes things easier when you are working three at once. I was doing Hippogryph Muisek (Feralas quest) and Natural Minerals (Feralas quest also). Each kill dropped at least one quest item most of the time. I got about 10 that didnt drop anything at all. Its the best spot to hunt if you have the other quests to do as well.

Комментарий от Thottbot

Just in case nobody already saw.. yes they do drop from the Hippogryphs 16,54 and as well they are all over the Hinterlands. But, the Witherbark Trolls at 31, 58 also drop them.

I've gotten two already from killing 5 of the Witherbark's. Uhm, that and the Hippogryph's are good.

The drop rate isn't that good, but they do drop, so don't get frustrated!

Комментарий от Thottbot

I got a better drop rate from witherbark trolls in hinterlands, after killing 15 i got 2...

Комментарий от Thottbot

While I agree the drop rate in Hinterlands isn't that good I managed to find a drop ratio of 1:3. IE: For approximately every 3 Gryphons I killed, one of them dropped the Long Elegant Feather. The two places I grinded them were near Quel'Danil Lodge and Aerie Peak.

Hope this helps.

Комментарий от Thottbot

Location: 16,54 (Below Aerie Peak)
Drop rate = Bad

Additional Information: Buying those items at Auction House might be a good idea, since quests like this just waste alot of your time.

Hinterlands:39 killed 10 feathers

Комментарий от Thottbot

The quest item you receive is 'Long Elegant Feather' and it is not marked as a quest item.
If you are like me and sometimes jumps between quests..you may..eh...end up selling/vendor them...

damn....

Комментарий от Thottbot

"Thindering Hippogryphs in Azshara drop these in almost every kill."

If you mean THUNDERHEAD hippos, no they do not. It is about 1 in 4.

Комментарий от Thottbot

First off, at least for the Horde, the Hinterlands and Feralas are *very* connected quest-wise. Certain items you wouldn't want to hunt up in the Hinterlands can be easily pulled up in Feralas, and vice versa. So don't be afraid to fill up your quest log with both.

Second, virtually every type of gryphon and hippogryph will drop Long Elegant Feathers; it's not merely a case of a single group. This is because they're actually a trade item too, and can be used to make the Admiral's Hat, among others. So whichever drop rate is highest is what you can use.

Finally, if none of these pan out, you can buy and sell the feathers on the Auction House; they're not bound.

HTH.

Комментарий от Thottbot

150+ kills and counting.... 9/10

Комментарий от Thottbot

If you are tired of not finding any feathers in hinterlands from the hippogryphs i found plenty on the hippogryphs in ferelas cords are around 55,61 if you dont have cords thats in the high wilderness....gl :o)

Комментарий от Thottbot

ive been on this quest for ages now been to feralas tried hinterlands and azshara and ive only got 5 from all those places i got a feather in 1 and evey 20 kills shocking drop rate been here for over 6 hours got the most drop rate at hinterlands 1 in every 5 but there arent very many around only about 5 roming hinterlands

Комментарий от Allakhazam

I don't see how so many people are having difficulties with drops.

I grinded ~30k xp off hippogryphs in feralas with a friend using the muisek quest item to take away every other kill, and I had them within an hour. ~20% drop rate (100+ kills). Plus hippogryphs have decent drops.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

kinda strange, but after 20 kills and no feathers, i just said !@#$ it, and then later on i was in azshara killing thunderhead hippogryphs for a totally different quest, and they were also dropping lots of these feathers.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

got em all in hinter had to look pretty hard and drop rate is pretty bad. good thing im a hunter and it made it a little easier.

they are all over, no centralized loc to report.
maybe best spot was just s of aeire peak but still horrid drops

Edited, Fri Mar 24 15:45:27 2006

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Far gryphons around 15.5. Drop rate is like 25%.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Dont even bother with this quest. I must have killed 25 gryphons in the Hinterlands and recieved 4 feathers. I then moved to Feralas and killed at least 25 more at 56,62 and only recieved 3 feathers. Yes I am killing the right ones.......i must have wasted 3 hours on this quest. I am a 50 rogue so the killing is easy.....at both locations the drops are terrible. Just abandon it and move on.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

i get 9 feathers from gryphons in Hinterlands through 1 hour, then drop rate drops and looking for last one very long... 20 kills and none feather, madness...

Комментарий от Allakhazam

i found many of them close to aerie peak, there are always 6 or 8 wandering in that area... i killed those, then waited for a respawn, killed again and i was done...

btw those in that area were lvl 40 or 42, so this quest can be done easily even low level...

Комментарий от Allakhazam

I followed the advice here and went to Feralas.
A few thousand in XP just for traveling to the spot.

Within 8 kills I had the last 3 feathers I needed.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

for this quest i strongly recoman azshara..even though the thunderhead hyppogryph (around19.56) are lvl 46-48 the drop ratio is excelent...in my case about 75%...so good luck

Edited, Apr 26th 2007 1:55am by Samfi

Комментарий от Allakhazam

I get stacks of these when farming hippogryphs in Azshera, just west of the horde flight path area.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

As the post by 'ihavenoname' suggests..look on the AH if you cant be bothered to spend an hour finding these things. Loads on the AH for 30sp a pop. Quest took me all of 30secs, the hardest bit, being when i went the wrong way going up the slope to the post box in UC. Hairy moment, but after i circeled the main area once, i found the box, calimed by feathers, and rejoyced in the ease!

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Razorbeak Skylord in hinterlands was not instant for me. Took a few minutes for respawn, and wandered between 51.46 to 61.56. After killing it four times without a drop, it was also no better than the rest. Running around zone in circles to find the other gryphons was not convenient either.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

They drop off the gryphons in the Hinterlands - just a low drop rate. The drop rate in Feralas off the Frayfeather Hippogryphs is around 20%... well worth the time to go there. Much larger population to kill in Feralas without having to run all over Hinterlands looking for an occasional gryphon that likely won't drop the feather.

The quest is silly to require 10 feathers and then tell you to hunt gryphons... bad design, for sure.

However, I HAVE gotten them from the gryphons... so if you're so inclined... good luck.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Don't waste your time killing gryphons. Go to Feralas and kill Frayfeather Hippogryph's drop rate is great. You can find them at 54,61 in Feralas.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

The drop rate in Feralas has decreased significantly but overall it's still doable there. I would say to get all 10 it took me about 1 hour there.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

it was easy at level 44 and i had to escort a dude that was in the cage in the back of the lodge. =P this part is for a group.:]

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Drop rate in Feralas is terrible. Hubby and I did Natural Materials and a hypogriff kill quest there, and we now have a total of 10 feathers between us both. This was several hours of killing, over the course of 3-4 days. I would estimate 1 in every 50 kills, you get a drop. Haven't tried Hinterlands yet, but I am hoping it is better than Feralas. We also checked AH but there were none there at the time.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

As stated before, Ferelas is the place for this quest. Killing in the high wilderness there are tons of hippogryphs. The purple (as opposed to the blue) drop the feathers at a one to two or three drop rate.

Also useful for the natural materials quest as these guys (blue ones too) drop the metallic fragments you need 40 of... very handy!

completed as a lvl48 lock destruction spec in an hour and a half (both natural materials and this quest) once i got to ferelas (had owlbeats in hinterlands done already)

Комментарий от Allakhazam

I had to go to Feralas and kill Frayfeather Hippogryph's to get the feathers. They don't seem to drop off any of the Gryphons you find flying around in the Hinterlands. Drop rate was decent in Feralas.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

I made a similar post in the Natural Materials quest thread in feralis.. but just so you know the easiest way to get these 10 feathers is not to kill griffons.. go to feralis and kill hyppogryphs down the western side of 'The high wilderness'.

They drop the feathers too and there are HEAPS there all clustered up.

Edited, Mon Apr 3 02:05:32 2006

Комментарий от Allakhazam

The Long Elegant Feathers are also a Tailoring ingredient, which is why they'll drop regardless of whether you're on this quest or not.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

anyone thought to look in the AH to see if you could just buy them?
I know the quest probably isn't worth going to org to buy them but i'm a quest freak and MUST finish it!

Комментарий от Allakhazam

I play on the PvP Eredar server, and I can testify that the Hinterlands are a waste of time for gathering feathers. In about a half-hour of running around over every inch of the Hinterlands, I found one, ONE skylord and he didn't even drop. You're far better off going to Feralas to take out hippogryphs or even better, go to an AH and search for a batch of these feathers up for sale. I got 6 this way, another 2 from Feralas (proof that Hinterlands' a waste) and the remainder from a skylord. This is definitely a quest you need to show some savvy in completing, not just grinding mindlessly.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Razorbeak Skylord also drop Long Elegant Feather and since it's a quest mob the respawn time is almost instant... got 6 feather on 8 kill so far.

Комментарий от holyglutes

Farmed the Frayfeather Hypogryphs in Feralas (coords: 55/61) for roughly 30 minutes in order to get the 10 Long Elegant Feather. The drop rate is not great. To my experience it dropped every 4rth mob or so.
Keep in mind that you can also buy the Long Elegant Feather in the AH, so have a look before starting grinding.

Комментарий от jfoobar

Yeah, the older comments talking about the high droprate in Azshara are not remotely true anymore. When I picked this quest up, I was already 5/10 from my previous questing in Feralas (including some grinding on the hippogryphs there). Not feeling like going back there again or hunting the spread out gryphons in Hinterlands, I went to Azshara. I was on my 10th kill before a feather dropped and it did not improve much from there. All told, I had to kill about 45 to get my five feathers.

The good news is that there is a nice concentration of them near the horde flight point (and alliance as well I believe) so they are easy to get to and kill. Just don't expect a great droprate.

Комментарий от Desarc

There are too few Gryphons in Hinterlands, and the Feralas area is often crowded with people doing other quests which require the same Hippogryphs, so I found that the best place to get these is the western part of Azshara. Even if the drop rate is not great, you can pretty much just keep going until you're done, since there are many spawns and they are not very contested.

Just watch out for the elite Cliff Walker, especially if you are on hardcore.

Комментарий от borcar

Did this in classic in Azhara as others pointed out. Head to the open area near the horde FP 17,53. Decent drop rate not great but respawns fast. Watch for elite giant, the ground will start shaking if he is near.

Also anecdotal but I had some really good drop luck coming here 3 sought after high level greens that pulled in just over 100G on AH for all of them.
