How to easily and quickly farm the AQ mounts

what to do: enter AQ and kill the trash before the first boss, those I kill in the video. I think you can kill the giant statues if you're geared enough.
the mounts got a very high drop rate; there is 3 mobs that I kill, on 3 runs I got 1 green mount, 2 yellow and 1 red.
The nice thing with just soloing the trash is that you:
* do not get saved and can reset in some minutes.
* don't have to roll with the other x amount of people going.
since WotLK I think I've went to like 3-4 AQ runs w/o getting a single mount, and now I got 3 of them in matter of minutes.

O_O.... I don't know about this. I see no problem in killing the ones you killed but come on those drops had to be extremely lucky.. and unless your a rogue you got a pretty big waste of time ahead of you. -_-

You absolutely don't need to be a stealth class to do these - I'd probably say if anything priest/mage have it toughest. Every other class should be able to solo stuff in here. Tanking classes (and possibly others) can also easily handle the big 4-pulls at the start.

One awesome tip I'll offer though - if you're killing the 4-pull of big guards at the beginning leave one alive and zone out each time. The other 3 corpses will still be there but all the mobs will respawn - meaning you can do this over and over and over without getting the annoying 'too many instances recently' lockout.

Hmm, nice. But, im not into this, can you, somehow if you like get all the mounts, use it outside AQ?

[elliotthehobo]

Pull the first pull, kill three of them, run out of the instance, run back in, all four will have reset. You don't have to waste your instance resets on it and its pretty damn easy.

The 4 bug mounts cannot be used outside AQ40 at all, they do count toward mount achievement. Only the black bug can be used outside AQ but it's frickin' rare that can no longer be obtained.

Achievement wh*res only? :P

As Chris Smoove (A.K.A. Smoove7182954) Always says, "Why Not?"

with my old druid i killed the 1st mob you did, pulled them 4 at the back, killed 3 dived out come back in and all 4 are back, loot and repeat.

Those aiming for the Albino Drake NEED these. It's extremely simple, and cuts off a lot of wasted time and money.

[Ruudvan]

Thank you, my druid will get a good head-start towards Albino now

Wrong, I got my albino drake a long time ago without ever even going into AQ

Good trick though OP.

Nice side effect - when killing all mobs up to the first boss you get like 1000 rep for the brood of nozdormu faction (100 rep per mob until friendly iirc).
