The Dragon Killing Is Fairly Simple, Here On the location below




Ok, i've collected information from pages of all 3 dragons; Time-lost Proto Drake, Dirkee, and Vyragosa. All 3 are rare-elite soloable dragons in The Storm Peaks.


And here's the map color-coded





Green dots are Dirkee.
Blue dots are Time-lost Proto-Drake.
Red dots are Vyragosa.

Each dot represents where a dragon has been sighted, killed, or a corpse on one has been found.


Of course, there's no noticable patrol route among them. If you do spot any of them though, please be sure to post co-ordinates and i'll try to update the map. It's no use saying "Well, he was near place X when i killed him", or "He patrolled south of place X and then went east towards place Y", those won't get added to the map.



HERBS:


Using the route detailed below, I was able to harvest in two circuits a total of 6 stacks (120 herbs) of Icethorn and Lichbloom each. In addition to these ~240herbs I gathered ~4 [Eternal Life] and 10 [Frost Lotus]. One circuit took approximately 40 minutes to complete. There were one or two herbalists besides me, so these kind of gains should be rather realistic for all times of the day.



The nodes on the map are from those two circuits alone. I rested the map before starting my first round. This should give you an idea about how many nodes there are to collect.

As a general tip, one should look for trees. It seems that about 95% of the herbs are located underneath the trees. Do not be afraid to leave the marked route a bit if you see a promising group of trees nearby. More often than not, there is a herb over there.

The best single area for gathering herbs is just a bit west of Maker's Engine. This being the area where my route goes zigzag up and down the mountainside. Running a circle around this area alone should wield great amounts of herbs if one doesn't have the time to do a full circuit.


Please note that i did work hard getting this information and would be slightly disappointed if it was a re-post.

You must have worked REALLY hard to find this on WoWHead searching for Icethorn/Lichbloom and copying a comment. No rep from me..
