How to easily find the Long-Forgotten Hippogryph
DISCLAIMER: Some people say they've been banned for using this, but there's no proof they've been banned from using Yeti Sonar, or even banned in the first place. As with any third party program; use it at your own risk.
This might seem like a no-brainer for some, but using Yeti Sonar lets you find the ephemeral crystals so much faster.
I ran around in Azsuna today and found the first crystal by the Daggerbeak world quest in the cave. I used all the macros on wowhead comment section, but couldn't really find any.
I downloaded the Yeti Sonar program quickly and tried using some of the model IDs. I won't recommend using the specific model IDs, since every crystal it's own unique ID, and there's like 40 possible crystal spawns so yeah.
Therefore you should just turn on Track Objects and open up the radar screen. Zoom out a bit and you should be able to see them really far away. I found two crystals at the murloc camp near the Azurewing Repose and I could see them on my radar even though I was inside the cave. Took me 1 hour running around without it and I found 3 crystals. Last two was within 10 secs of each other at a spot I had looked over 3 times.
TL;DR 1. Get Yeti Sonar. 2. Turn on Track Objects. 3. Open up radar, zoom out A LOT (in the radar just scroll down) and run around the whole map looking at the radar. Use the waypoint macros from wowhead if you want to make a route easier. 4. Loot all 5 crystals that's up and you get the mount in your bag. Don't die or you'll have to click the ones you already clicked again.
The intent of this post is for people who's seen the crystals up really, but user h42 figured a way to keep it running and it'll give you a sound if it scans it on the radar:

My tip to others would be to have sonar going in the background with an advanced filter and an alert sound whenever you do WQs etc in azsuna, I did this and now on the 3rd day it made the sound, took me 10 mins after that to run around and collect all 5.

What's the chances with yeti sonar radar getting you banned? I've never used it but seen it's been up for a long time on this site.
And thanks for the tip

Not sure what the chances are. I haven't read of anyone getting banned by it and I've used it on and off for a long of things for years, like back in MoP for the Tiller rep items and stuff.

Instead of just tracking all objects (which will show all kinds of things including mailboxes, benches, herbs, etc) or finding and adding in the multiple item IDs for the crystals, just type in "Ephemeral" in the text box after checking 'Display Objects' and run around to the known spawn points.
And even though the guy above me is now banned, I will answer anyhow. Yes this is still working just fine.

Great addition! I tried entering just "Ephemeral" and it didn't do much so I just had it show all objects. It wasn't too hard to find it on the radar since it had the longest name on the radar compared to "bonfire" or "bench".
