Commentaire de DarkRyder

The spellscribe is famous mostly for the Black Tabby small pet that he drops. It seems to be available from other mobs (near Dalaran), but at a miniscule drop rate. The spellscribe's drop rate for it is about 15%.

Commentaire de SolarJet

I've seen this rare spawn only every other day in the small shack back right hand corner(most often) and just inside the main room in the main building

Commentaire de Aurora

The Spellscribe can spawn in the following locations: in the town hall centre; inside of the shack to the left of the town hall's entrance; and inside of the house to the right of the town hall's entrance.

Today I found the Spellscribe inside of the house; she dropped a rather poor green staff and, fortunately, the Black Tabby.

Be careful whilst fighting her; every now and then she casts 'Freeze', which is a particularly nasty stun and DOT spell. Try to keep your health very high at all times during the fight with her; she can sometimes be much more difficult than she appears!

Commentaire de Tyrsenus

All Dalaran mobs are alliance-friendly, so alliance players cannot get this directly. It can be sold for quite a bit of gold on the neutral auction house by horde players.

Commentaire de DrCheis

It seems this mob can spawn as either a male or a female, unlike most rare mobs.

Commentaire de 83576

Can anyone confirm whether the spellscribe still drops the cat? I read on another forum that it doesn't anymore.

Commentaire de 104135

I've killed this mob around 10-11 times over the last few days and I still haven't gotten a cat carrier to drop :(

Commentaire de 79734

Can any one tell me the respawn rate on this mob?

Commentaire de 151027

I found him last night dropped a belt for me

Commentaire de 48088

Be warned, this mob has a freeze ability. It is an instant cast, lasts for 15 seconds, leaves you completely unable to act, and it does not break on damage. If you're approximately the same level as this mob, that ability will almost certainly kill you.

Commentaire de 177588

I have killed the spawn twice so far and no cat. However the first one was male and the second was female. I waited 30 minutes after the first kill around 4:30pm and no re-spawn. My second kill on the same day was around 11pm. Sorry I can't give an exact spawn time.

Commentaire de 39966

Respawn timer: 8 hours ?

I've been trying to figure out the respawn timer on this mob, so after first killing her at 3:30am i decided to just stay there and wait. After 6 hours straight sitting there and clicking /target Dalaran Spellscribe macro i spiritlessly fell asleep :( seeing no respawn, however when i came back at 3:25pm the Spellscribe was already back. Thus the respawn timer must be over 6hours but under 12hours, and my guess is that it is equal to 8hours. Have luck grinding!

Commentaire de kalerender

The two spawn locations I have seen so far (have not seen the spawn in the house to the right as you enter the compound) have both been unique spawn points, so you do not need to farm/clear the rest of the mobs while you wait.

Commentaire de 201054

I've been killing this guy/girl for the past 5 days trying to get the Black Tabby. So far I've killed the Dalaran Spellscribe 10 times and he/she still hasn't dropped the cat. That's, at most, a 9% drop rate for me.

Commentaire de Daggerfist

Respawn rate is 10 hours.

Commentaire de mcomommy

I don't think that's how it works at all. I camped out over by her spawn for a while today. She was killed within 5 mins of spawning at 1215. (I had a timer on reminding me to hit the /target macro that went off every 5 mins, at 1215 when I hit hte macro, it targeted her dead body) I set an alarm in game to go off 6 hours after that - 10 mins so I would get a jump on her spawn. At 5pm, having forgotten what time the alarm was set for, I logged in, hit the target macro, and boom there she was. An hour and 15 mins before a 6 hr respawn based on when I saw her body. Still no kitty, though. : / Just the dang belt over and over again. As said above, I'm also thinking it is a random spawn between 3-8 hours.

Commentaire de ForcedPerfect

To all those Alliance players who want this item, but don't want to spend a ton of gold on the AH or spend 6 months waiting for it to even appear, you might want to do what I did.

Make a Horde Death Knight.

Simply make a Horde Death Knight, do the starting quests (3 hours or less) and take the flight path straight there. When you've finished the quests you have all the flight paths, so head to Silverpine and camp there until you have one and zip down to Booty Bay.

Couple things to note, however.

1: You cannot make a Horde if you are on a PvP server and play Alliance. You're stuck with the same faction.

2: You cannot bid on your own auctions. So don't go putting it on the neutral AH and then login with an Alliance character hoping to buy it from yourself. Just get a guild member or someone you trust to get into position while you put it up on the AH for 2 copper.

I've had the mob spawn twice since I made my Horde character yesterday. Dropped the cat second try (however I think I'll get a few more to make some cash). :)

3 hours of doing quests is nothing compared to most farming, plus you don't have to check the AH 50 times a day hoping a Horde has realized it is a valuable item.

Commentaire de 256484

I just cant see the 20% drop rate on that cat. I have been farming this thing for 2 weeks now, killing it at least twice a day, and not one cat. I guess i just have bad luck.

He spawns in the center quite a bit for me, having seen him there about 70% of the time. The rest of the time is split between the other 2 areas. The house on the right, he spawns in the back part of the lower floor, you can see it when looking straight in the door.

Commentaire de 278558

I have actually only seen her twice, both time was in the house to the right as you enter, neither time did she have the cat, i got the staff the first time and the belt the second.

Commentaire de Katrak

Started farming for the Black Tabby today, so far I can report in three kills an approximate respawn timer of 4 hours and 25 minutes.

First respawn was at ~11:56 pm server time. Second was at ~4:20 am.

No tabby so far.

Commentaire de 252463

First kill:1:56 AM server time, Second kill:5:32 AM, Third Kill: 4:05 PM the next day, Fourth Kill: 9:13 PM and the last one I will record is the Fifth Kill, at 1:40 AM. I slept though one spawn time between second and third kill. I targeted him/her from the middle room when he/she was in the room to the left as you enter and has been either in that room or in the middle room since. Hope this info will help you out. Out of the five kills I got 2 Black Tabbies and sold one for 400g to another horde friend.

13 kills now, 4 tabbies

19 kills now, 5 tabbies

Commentaire de KurbStomped

Just killed the Spellscribe at 4:35 realm time. Definitely dropped the cat carrier for me so that was nice. Was in the main room of town hall.

Commentaire de 161764

bah. i killed this bastard 13 times now. and he never dropped cat...

Commentaire de Ilaeria

Would like to confirm that the Spellscribe does NOT automatically spawn when the server restarts, unfortunately.

Commentaire de 326583

I've killed the spellscribe 20 times, the only time the black tabby dropped was the first time.........

Commentaire de Hezar

Totally missed this pet when started farming pets for 75 pet achievement. Today looked it up and went farming. Dropped from first spellscribe :) 67 pets in total now.

Going try and get it from next spellscribe and hit it on neutral ah for 1000g and see if it sells :)

Edit: seems like my usual luck is back. out of 16 scribe kills only first kill gave me tabby. im starting to think that it wont drop if you have already learned it. oh well few more tries.

Edit2: 28 spellscribes later i got it again :) rng must hate me :p

Commentaire de 256123

I've killed this guy 5 times so far on my BE death knight. I didn't feel like power-lvling a new hordie to lvl 30 so I just used the tactic mentioned by ForcedPerfect. Out of the 5 times he's died, the cat has only dropped once. The second, fourth, and fifth times he's dropped a Jewel-encrusted Sash and the third time it was a Channeler's Staff. For me, the respawn time seems to be anywhere between 5 hours and 9 hours.

Commentaire de Oomie

I've been camping this npc for about 5 days or so, killed it like 17 times. Each spawn is roughly 4-5 1/2 hours apart. Still haven't seen a black tabby drop.

Commentaire de 264267

Not to mention the Sprite Darter Hatchling and Westfall Chicken, the latter of which you can only get as a Horde player if you have a friendly Alliance player willing to do the quest and let you take the egg, and the former not available at all as Horde until the next patch where they're reportedly making it a small chance drop off the Sprite Darters.

Commentaire de Brbwyn

As of 3.1 the https://www.cuckhead.com/cata/spell=15067 will drop from the sprite darters.

Sprite Darter Eggs: May now (very rarely) drop from Sprite Darters in Feralas. Note that only Horde characters can attack and kill Sprite Darters.

So what does that say now about the alliance not being able to get this pet unless they pay a fortune, are lucky enough to be on a pve server and get a trusted friend to buy it for them after farming it, or spending the money to make an extra account.

Commentaire de 90955

guide to getting your tabby/2k

1. see where the castle is on the map go there
2. check the house(both) shack and town hall
3. hunters can track this easily its a yellow dot
4. kill it

HERES WHAT I DID to start an operation to get my second epic flyer
i made a horde to try to lvl and i got boared.
when i heard about this i made him spawn camp him and i would log ojn every 3 hours or so and check (hes a hunter) please make a hunter for tracking.
he was lvl 19 so it was easy.
wait.
when i get 2 i hearthed to the sepulcher and mailed them to an alt in bb and transfered. easy
(also if you dont like dks you can make a dk and theyll just butcher em) the mobs are friendly to alliance and the cat goes for 1700-2000 gold on a alliance ah on my server

Commentaire de 346632

You will not believe what I just did.

I decided to go camp there with my hunter, figuring I'd do like most people do and log on every once in a while, spam the macro a few times, then log off.

The second I step into Ambermill for the first time on my hunter, the macro hits him. I look around a little bit and can't see him. So after a while I get the bright idea to just send my pet after him and follow my pet.

Sadly, he killed him in like one shot, leaving me unable to loot.

I'm going to abandon that pet XD.

Anyways, I saw him in the back corner of the hut that is to the left of the main hall if you're facing the main hall's entrance.

Commentaire de hasmik

The droprate may be lower then stated here. I have killed him/her around 20 times now with no cat. (of course, it just might be statistics against me here!)

Commentaire de 351049

My biggest problem with the Spellscribe is that he's always killed when I get there. I've been looking for him three times today (with about 3 to 6 hours in between) and he hasn't been there at all!
I expected having to kill him severals time before I got the Tabby but I can't even get the chance to try...
I guess I'll just have to continue trying, sooner or later I'll get him.

Commentaire de 90955

there seems to be a high drop rate the first time you do it but it becomes low over time. i have killed him 8 times. first time i got it second time i didnt third time i did.

THE SPAWN LOCATIONS ARE:

in the main building

in iether of the houses

shack (unconfirmed).

he is always inside guarded by at least 1 mob on the main building (same pull)
and by 2 or 3 in the houses (if you manage to pull the person guarding the door without pulling the house also if your a class with a pet dont send it in that will aggro it)

if you are going to make an alt to farm this thing do the fallowing: make a hunter the tracking will help sooo much i just happen to have a hunter and it works especially with the pet tank. if your making a dk just get tracking humanoids on a low lvl hunter and check before inconvenience. but that may not we worth your time.

Commentaire de insinu8

I have been farming this pet on and off since January. I've mapped out the times and locations of each spawning, the location and the drop. To date, my success rate is this:

Out of 40 spawnings of the Spellscribe that I have seen, I've collected:

20 sashes (50%)
10 staffs (25%)
1 belt (2.5%)
1 axe (2.5%)
9 cat boxes (22.5%)

The trouble is, there is no pattern to the spawning of the Spellscribe. It changes from day to day and from hour to hour. I plotted it in a chart. It's completely random. Some days it will spawn 2-3 times, some days never. The timing of the spawns changes and does not repeat intra-day or inter-day. Also, the location changes as well, in a similarly random manner.

I got 2 cat boxes within 24 hours followed by none for week and a half, despite not changing my hours of play/checking.

Basically, be prepared to be stubborn, competitive (many many people log in/out right in the doorways), and patient....or, have a lot of money. I've sold my boxes for anywhere from 600g on the low side to 1600g on the high side. It also makes a difference whether you buy/sell at a Horde AH or neutral, of course.

Commentaire de 172921

A sweet macro for finding this guy would be something like

/tar Dalaran Spellscribe
/stopmacro
/w > %T <

Commentaire de 370934

Can someone please tell me where exactly this NPC spawns inside those three houses? Upstairs? Next to the fire place? ....
I have been looking out for him for several days now and havn't seen him once. I have this strange idea that I am just not looking into the right corner.

Thx so much! :)

Im go to kill the Dalaran Spellscribe and at the 1 try im found.

Commentaire de 357405

Can someone verify the drop rate of the Black Tabby pet?

I've been farming this guy for the last week and killed him/her about 12 times with no Tabby,either some bad luck or changed drop rates maybe.. not sure..

And one very good way to farm the Black Tabby:

Have an alt character that is high enough to down these mobs with no issues (27+)
Have the alt stand in the center of the entrance on the stone path.
Make the macro "/target Dalaran Spellscribe" and put it on your action bar.
Log in/out periodically (about every 4 hours seems to work well). And click the macro. And if you are standing on the path, it should be in range for all of the Spellscribe's spawn locations.
Now that you know that the mob is there, go and check the 3 locations for your kill.

It seems to work pretty well for farming the mob, try it and have fun farming : )

Commentaire de 130031

Can someone verify the drop rate of the Black Tabby pet?

I had farmed this little guy during the Christmas season and had gotten about one every other week. Starting around March was the last time I've seen this drop. I'm good about checking on the Dalaran Spellscribe twice a day and get at least one kill but no kitten. This long drought makes me think either they might have changed the drop rate or a black cat has crossed my path.

Commentaire de 61787

I have been farming this mob for some time now. The spawn time is quite rare, I killed her at 22:12 then again at 01:20 , then again at 12:10.

14 Sashes in my inventory and only 2 tabbies.

Using a level 30 rogue, stealth, kill, vanish, logout.

Tabbies sell for 1000g easily on Magtheridon-Eu Horde.

Commentaire de 350926

There are my drops of 40 kills of Dalaran Spellscribe

29 x Jewel-encrusted Sash (72,5%)
11 x Channeler's Staff (27,5%)
4 x Black Tabby (26th, 34th, 35th and 37th kill) (10%)

Note: The black tabby is an extra loot, the mob drops the staff or the sash and the kitten.

Commentaire de 51936

i just killed a spellscribe, then decided to grind the mobs around the spawn spots until another popped. (while spamming /target Dalaran Spellscribe macro inbetween kills) took 9.5 hours for a second one to pop...so def confirmed that it can take over 6 hours to spawn. btw, 9.5 hours of farming the same 30 or so mobs in that walled in area is BRUTAL. just log in occasionally to check for it, don't hang around, you're better off leveling up to 30 to farm the other 3 mobs that drop the cat inbetween checking spawn times on the spellscribe.

Commentaire de kynthea

I've been camping the Dalaran Spellscribe for a few weeks now. The droprate on the tabby is not very good. Between spawn times I hunted Dalaran Summoners and got one tabby. I also got a tabby from a Dalaran Shield Guard. I only managed to get those once as the droprate is horrible.

I had my orc death knight sit at Ambermill for hours on end, spamming the target macro every few minutes and checking the combat log to see if anyone else had come by and attacked the spellscribe. I had the sound set so that if there was any combat I would hear it happening and be able to check. Whenever he/she spawned I would check the smaller buildings first and then inside the large one and one-shot kill him/her.

The spawnrate seems to be between 4 hours + 10 minutes up to 8 hours (on only one occasion it was 10 hours, but I think I may have missed a spawn while grabbing something to eat). It was never less than 4 hours. Most of the time for me he/she would respawn after 4 hours and 10 minutes. I filled my bags with the jewel-encrusted sashes, maybe about 10 of the channeler's staff. I did get a green recipe (I'll have to look again to see what kind it was) that isn't on the loot list here.

I didn't get the tabby very often. Maybe one in 20 kills or so if I'm lucky. But I have gone for over 30 kills without getting one.

The spawn time seems to be about the same on the PTR (Patch Test Realm), although for the most part it was every 4 hours + 10 minutes. The droprate on PTR seems to be worse for me, but it could just be that I'm having bad luck.

I hope this helps.

Commentaire de 307435

confirmed the horrible drop rate. never ever 19%, more like 5 or something for me. But well, it takes like half a minute to kill this guy and when he finally drops the tabby, you'll get your easy ~1k gold (on my realm at least)

Commentaire de Supahtoons

Here's a macro I use to help me find it if it's up.

/tar Dalaran Spellscribe
/use Shadow Crystal Focusing Lens

Replace the Shadow Crystal with any other lens that you wish.

Commentaire de 155982

I have found him three times so far and the black cat has dropped once. What I found helpful was to grab the npc number, 1920 and add it into my npc scan addon. I set my dk on the steps in the middle of the three places and the range is far enough that when you sign on, if the spellscribe is there then it will set the addon off. If not, you don't have to worry about checking each house.

Commentaire de Keiser

I am shocked that I have yet to see this mob even once since I am on a very low pop server. My warlock is parked on the steps here and I've logged in to him a few times a day, have the Spellscribe in NPCscan and I have a macro that I spam.

Once he spawns will he despawn at all like some rares or just hang around until killed?

Edit:
And after continuing to check this mob for 6 days I have seen him 4 times, checking for him on average 3-4 times a day. I assume it's still farmed even on low pop servers, I even ran into a few people here that were level 40+. Exactly as the droprates would suggest, I looted 3xJewel Encrusted Sash the first few times and this last time I got the Channeler's Staff (shouldn't it be called the Spellscribe's Staff?). The last time I also got my Black Tabby!

If you have a spare high level character that you can park for a week it is one of the easier rare pets to get since you don't need to grind, just log in, hit a macro, log out.

Commentaire de 120428

I'm a regular BT farmer by having a toon sitting in the area... every time i log on/out i check along with in-between toon changing... I've switched realms 2 months ago and started up my farming again. even though i kill the spellscribe about once a day I've not yet received a tabby... if it's just bad luck IDK, but I'm thinking things might have changed. i use to get the tabby about 1 in 5 kills. I'm wondering if the drop-rate changed? is the drop-rate different on other realms? or even do they still drop from the spellscribe? i have about 30 belts now and no tabby. anyone else experience this lately? I like to asume i have bad luck do to what would be the point of a 6-8 hour spawnrate otherwise. another point i like to make is that the spellscribe doesn't always spawn in an exact spawn time (such as 6 hours, or 7 hours and 43 minutes)... I've test this many times.

Commentaire de 394999

I prefer to leave my brothers well-geared level 35 priest to wait.Check in regularly,but usually i get 1 to 5 spellscribe kills a week,always managing to get one black tabby.

Commentaire de 481132

Here's a perfect macro for you to farm Dalaran Spellscribe.

/tar Dalaran Spellscribe
/stopmacro
/tell YOURNAME > %t <
/run PlaySoundFile("Sound\\Creature\\Patchwerk\\PAT_NAXX_AGGRO02.wav")

Basically all you need to do is spam this macro and watch TV or something. And when you hear Patchwerk's voice, you've targetted Dalaran Spellscribe.

Commentaire de 551498

didnt even know this was rare drop, looks like im going to use this instead of my Core hound pup :D

Added the Spellscribe to _npcscan, and am hovering in the area with my 35 warrior. Running dungeons to pass the time.

Fingers crossed!

Commentaire de lun471k

Just got him, Sadly he didn't drop the famous "Black Tabby". Got the Staff though. Uploading a screenshot.

Commentaire de 568686

I don't want to sound like I'm bragging, because I'm not. But I have gone here many times to farm the black tabby pet from the dalaran spellscribe and have killed him about 12 times. Only 1 of those times did I not get the pet drop, which surprised me a lot because I had gotten it every other time. So idk, the drop chance may really be that low and I just got extremely lucky. I sell each one on my server for 450-500g usually.

Commentaire de 569819

37 kills thus far and still have yet to get the black tabby. 100% drop on the sash though.

Commentaire de TheLittleOne

Well, this is a great way to make money if you have 80's on another server but you just started a new server. I really wanted dual spec for my priest for discipline/shadow but I was only able to about 500g from selling herbs and potions. I made a DK and parked her right outside the Spellscribe spawn. I've killed the Spellscribe twice and that Black Tabby has dropped both times now. I hope I keep getting lucky, I got the first one to sell for 500g.

The only thing I'm not sure about is the respawn timer. I read that it was 6-8 hours, but I later read it was around 4 hours. I checked very frequently between 6-8 hours and didn't find it. It is very possible if it spawned earlier someone could have killed it already.

Good luck!

Commentaire de xetsog

Commentaire de Konstantinus

With the institution of Patch 4.0.3a, all of the Alliance npc's in Ambermill have been replaced with Elemental Servitors - not sure if any of them will drop the Black Tabby, but it seems unlikely. Stay tuned, and if you've got any tabbies, you might want to hold onto them for a while... ;)

Commentaire de weehooligan

Since the shattering, these no longer spawn in the walled town - there are no Dalaran mages there at all, just elementals.

Commentaire de ne0nex

As of The Shattering (4.0.3a) this mob is effectively gone. I waited for a while at the area where I had previously farmed the cat and did not see the mob spawn. Doubtful that they kept the mob spawning among all the Elemental Servitors that have taken over Ambermill.

Commentaire de 486262

Does anyone know if Dalaran Spellscribe even exists as of 4.0.3b? There are only Elemental Servitors in the area now. I really don't want to have to farm the Dalaran Summoners at 0.9%. XP

Commentaire de 791031

I no longer see the Spellscribe at the locations pinged on the map. >:(

Commentaire de razxion

From what I can tell you need to complete some quest lines and unlock the gate to get into the other dimension. There's dalaran wizards and such after you do so instead of the elementals.

Commentaire de Hellwing

Can anyone confirm that the Spellscribe can spawn once you've done the questchain? Working on it now since I tired of farming Stormpike Dwarves in Hillsbrad.

Commentaire de faeofwind

This NPC is no longer in the game.

The quest chain to begin unlocking Ambermill begins at the start of the zone. You have to do the previous 40 or so quests to get to these. Once you have "unlocked" ambermill, you will eventually get ported to the Dalaran Crater. The summoners are there, but so far no one has seen the spellscribe.

Once you return to Ambermill, there are NPCs all named 'Ambermill -something-'.

Once you have completed this quest chain, there are no longer hostile mobs in the area.

For anyone stuck on quests like i was (51/55), run into Ambermill's main building in the back and 3 NPC's will pop up and offer new quests.

The black tabby is now a zone drop in Hillsbrad with a reported 1/10,000 drop chance.

There is a comment stating that Yetimus has dropped a few, but it's not officially confirmed to be the best mob to farm yet.

Good luck! Wish I spent more time farming this before the Shattering....

Yeah, I've been hunting too the maine coon, and I have a good news : there is a 2nd respawn.

It's in the main building, exactly in the same room than the named boss (archmage alteric I think). When you enter, there is 3 seats in front of you. Between thoses there's a second respawn :)

Commentaire de Thottbot

I killed a spellscibe (in Shadow Council realm) and he dropped this cat carrier (Black Tabby), I havent been able to find this black tabby carrier on any databases, and since the spellscribe usually drops the maine coon, I am assuming that in this new 1.6 patch they changed the name. after all the maine does look like a black tabby. although I didnt see mention of this in the patch notes for 1.6. has anybody had this drop before?

Commentaire de Thottbot

Well, I used to have a Maine Coone, now I have a Black Tabby... And I didn't change anything, but went to 1.6

*sigh*

I liked my Maine Coone, but due to the filter I could never tell anyone what it was called without it being filtered, so I suspect they just changed it.

Commentaire de Thottbot

I found him at 62,62.
And only horde can kill him (friendly with alliance).
There are two minions (16 and lvl 17) with him and one lvl 17 voidwalker.
Before killing him you need to kill few other Dalaran Warder�s
Good luck for hunting :)

Been wanting to get my hands on that cat for over a week now, gone back there, camped the spot, shot her about ten times now and I keep getting that silly belt or that wand. It's like the game knows... :P

Going to keep trying till I get that darn cat. And it's not even for me...

Commentaire de Thottbot

I think you may need to reset the numbers above or something since something must've been changed in a recent patch. I've killed the spellscribe about ~18 times now, having it drop the uncommon belt 10 times (55%), the channeler staff 3 times (16.6%) and the cat 0 times (0%). Even if the cat were to drop on next one, the percentage would still be only about 6%, much below the 17% listed above.

I'm beginning to wonder if Blizzard removed the cat as a drop from this rare mob.

Commentaire de Thottbot

I confirmed today that this spellscribe spawns in THREE spots; 1 in each house next to the hall, and inside the hall, as of 2.1 you can use the macro '/target Dalaran Spellscribe' to auto-target the spellscribe (good for thru walls) but it will target anything else if there is no spellscribe

Commentaire de Thottbot

Been camping...still no cat. =/ It's been male each time for me though!

I don't think the respawn time is *super* long, I've been farming SFK and then coming back to look for this guy and he's usually there, so...I dunno.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Does the cat still drop? I've been farming the spellscribe semi-regularly for the past week or 10 days and I have yet to see it drop once. I've killed him/her about 20 times so far. It's making me sad. =(

Commentaire de Thottbot

The spawn time for me was 4 hours exactly, give or take two minutes.

No cat, in two tries. Hopefully I can get one in a day or so of trying.

Commentaire de Thottbot

I can confirm the above. After camping out for a while, I managed to find him/her (both sexes were present) three times. Got a sashes every time, and on the third time, the cat carrier finally dropped. I am guessing from my experience that the respawn time is somewhere around 2 hours.

The macro "/target dalaran spellscribe" was invaluable. I starded using it after the first two times and it saved me from having to go in and fight just to see if the MOB was there or not.

Now I need one more cat carrier, this time for Booty Bay AH. Then I can finally leave this place again and continue my leveling.

Commentaire de Thottbot

the spellscribe spawns in 3 locations... the main building and both of the houses next to it within its its stone wall suroundding it. whether or not they each have their own re-spawnrate or seperate i dont know right now, but i hope this helps you farm him/her.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Omfg, I finally got a chance to kill this thing and my damn imp one-shot it -.-! so pissed...

Commentaire de Thottbot

I'm currently camping this mob on 2 servers, and my friend has been camping it religiously for a few weeks now.

Spawn rate is roughly once every 3-4 hrs, can spawn either in town hall or either side building. A /target macro will pick it up from any of the possible locs if u stand on town hall stairs.

So far ive killed it 7 times, and received 4 cats. Though I think ive been fairly lucky, because my friend has killed it many more times and says the drop rate is closer to 20-25%.

Commentaire de Thottbot

14 kills yields 10 belts 4 staves zero cat

Commentaire de Thottbot

Note: Only Horde can kill the Dalaran Spellscribe. It's also located within the walls of Ambermill in Silverpine, there are only 3 buildings buildings inside this area. Level 20's mobs so bring someone 30ish and higher, this will make things easier on you.

Step 1: Make a macro "/target Dalaran Spellscribe" and bind it to a key. (This will target through walls so you don't have to run around unless you want to and I find it's easier to push a button on my keyboard rather than my mouse.)

Step 2: Park your toon in front of the town hall. (You're safe if you sit in between the 2 light posts.)

Step 3: Grab a good book or have a friend to chat with while you spam your macro button.

Step 4: Once the target is spotted, it will be either in the town hall, or to the right on the first floor of the big house or to the left in the small house. Run around until you find them and kill kill kill!

The Spellscribe is either male or female but of the Human kind. It also spawns 4-6 hours after it was killed. So if you got your first kill in, log back in 4 hours later and wait because it is really close to spawning again. The most you will have to wait for spawn time is 2 hours.

I've killed this person 3 times in 1 day by following this method. I have no life so yes I can wake up at 4am and kill them. Sadly I have killed them 6 times in the last week and haven't gotten anything but the Jewel-encrested sash. 100% drop rate on that bad boy so I continue stalking the poor mob. Good luck to all!

If you don't want to go extream and wait for hours and hours for this mob to spawn, just log in every few hours and see if it's appreared. If it has, congrats!

Commentaire de Thottbot

I dont have the time to camp it so I parked one of my toons that I dont play alot and log in from time to time.

2/11 sash
2/13 sash
2/13 found dead
2/14 sash
2/14 found dead
2/28 staff
3/22 CAT Woot!
3/23 staff
3/27 sash
3/28 found dead
these were just random times I logged in,ran macro and found them.I usually check 2-3 times a day and they arent there

Commentaire de Thottbot

also I want to add that it will spawn in several locations inside the big building and in both smaller buildings located inside the wall

Commentaire de Thottbot

Wildhammer-alliace-about 1-2k a cat, PvP Server =(

Commentaire de Thottbot

I hate all of you who get the cat first drop...36 tries and no cat. Just the damn staff...This is going to turn out like my SM armory run for the tabard...

Commentaire de Thottbot

ive gotten the cat 4 times out of the the 13 times ive killed that spellscribe as for the respawn.... i dont think it has a set time because i have found it to be anywere from 4 to 8&1/2 hours but i dont know, maybe im high or something it also may be that there r multiple respawns
well, happy farming :)

Commentaire de Thottbot

I have a lvl 23 BE Warlock . Used my Succubus, Eye of Kilrogg and the "/target Dalaran Spellscribe" macro.
On Feathermoon (RP - US) here are the times (server times) I logged for the Spellscribe:

On Nov 15th 2009:
Spotted at 1:05pm, killed at 1:16pm <got the cat (1st try too!)
Spotted at 5:45pm, killed at 5:50pm <got the cat (lucky 2nd try)
I logged in from 9:30 to 11 server, and NO Spellscribe, so logged off--too long a wait. I may have missed a spawn.

On Nov 16th, 2009;
Spotted at 2:25pm, killed at 2:28pm <sash, no cat
Spotted at 7:10pm, killed at 7:15pm <sash, no cat
Spotted at 11:20pm, killed at 11:25pm <sash, no cat

I'd like to mention, I got the sash when looting the cat as well. From my estimate the spawn time seems to have no clear pattern, but an every 4-6 hour interval seems plausible.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Has anyone seen a spellscribe since patch 3.3?

Commentaire de Thottbot

No! I've been checking twice a day and I haven't seen him since 3.3. I usually catch him once a day, but he's been missing :(

EDIT: Yes, just got him tonight, alive and well - but no kitty :(

Commentaire de Thottbot

Before 3.3 I used to kill him/her at least once a day with reasonable drop rate on cat. Since 3.3 I can still find him/her but I have yet to see the cat drop. Not sure if its a fluke or if they changed the drop rate.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Yes it still spawns and yes it still drops. No the drop rate hasn't changed either. Just there are tons of people farming him/her now, so may seem that way.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Saw it today (22 Feb 2010), it dropped the cat (which I gave to my husband as a belated Valentine's Day prezzy). Saw it 4-5 days ago, it dropped the sash. Today, it was in the main building (the same one with the named guy that I'm too lazy to look up), before, it was in the building on the right. I'd seen it in the side building before, about mid-January.

Commentaire de Thottbot

After 5 visits I finally found him using that macro /target Dalaran Spellscribe works wonders :) droped a freaking sash though =/ I will post again when he spawns next.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Just killed this *!@#$. On my friend's Horde toon camping.. Firt kill got the damned sash. /sad face Glad I now know the spawn timers. DK logged in right after me only to find a dead body.. he has 11 kitties currently..

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Passed by on my way to Tarren Mill and decided to try my luck. Found him in the left house inside the walled area of Ambermill. Got the belt, a random Green and a carrier. I'll comeback later on my way back to try my luck again and sell the next one. He's elite though, just to add.Pic Here. Find Humanoid ROCKS.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

No respawn after 3 hours... I am assuming it will be a 6 hour spawn

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Just killed her, she spawned inside a house. He didnt drop the cat :S

I was helping a mage with a quest and he got a belt so im happy ;)

Commentaire de Allakhazam

please tell me how you can kill these guys to get the cat if you are alliance

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Is this guy in live or what? Anyone know? Hello?

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Dropped:
Channeler's Staff
Cat Carrier (Black Tabby)
The hunter in the group knew I was keen for it and handed it over to me without hesitation, thats what you gotta love about some great players in wow.
Shout out to Ketzer from Dark Iron - You rock mate!

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Cat carrier? i dont think so. I killed him 8 times and he kept dropping his retarded sash nobody cares for. I'm dissapointed.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

I killed him and got the cat and the belt :) Both times he spawned he was protected by a conjurer and a warden, and in the small building to the left. Happy day :D

Commentaire de Allakhazam

I currently have this for sale on the Magtheridon server at the booty bay AH for any alliance or horde that would like it. It will be used to get myself some mount training.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Respawn time? I want the kitty BAAAAAAAD!
Good present for a friend, considering hes obsessed with maie coons, looks just like one.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Ambermill is where he/she/it is. I've killed the spellscribe 3 times already and twice I got the Channeler's Staff and the Jeweled sash/belt or whatever the third time. I want my cat too. Not sure on the spawn rate. I just come back periodically. So far once he was in the fortress once and on either side of it in the huts the other two times. Track Humanoid is nice.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Went there with my shaman alt and killed the spellscribe, didn't dropped it, so I logged out to try it some other time. Got it on the third kill and it looks lovely. :)

Commentaire de Allakhazam

I've only killed him once, but he dropped the staff for me. I'm going to keep trying for the cat though, who knows, maybe I'll get lucky. His respawn time is ridiculous though. I would believe it if it was once a day. : /

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Ok, is there *any* way for an alliance to engage in combat on this mob? I've tried warring every faction possible. I want a kitty :(

Commentaire de Allakhazam

I killed the guy in the northern most building ( the 1 to the left of the town hall if you are looking at it) waited 1 hour to see if he would respawn, no he didnt. I went to ShadowFang Keep for an hour. I come back and still no respawn. I assume this guy doesnt leave from inside the walls

For people who dont want the story above.

2 hours and still no respawn.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

This guy is either triggered or has a very slow spawn time. I killed him once and got the belt and I've been waiting for about 30-40 mins and he has not yet respawned.

Edited, Mon Dec 20 03:44:54 2004

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Ok, this person I found in the house to the right of the Town Hall. Killed her once, and got the Sash. Waited literally an hour, and she didn't respawn for me. And I was really hoping for that cat. :(

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Just killed this today, in the right hand house, at the back of the first room as you enter the "walled" area.

Dropped cat and sash.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

got the cat on first drop.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Just because no one has said it for a while:

- Is a rare. Not elite, though.
- Spawns in one of three places, one in each of the buildings in the small town at the back of Ambermill.
- As you enter, on the left, s/he can spawn in the back right corner of that building.
- As you enter, central, s/he can spawn in the big room in the back.
- As you enter, on the right, s/he can spawn on the first floor, hidden behind a little wall dead central as you enter the building.

Each of these spots is near several other mobs, so come prepared to take on 2 or 3 of the same level enemies at once.

Has a long, long spawn timer, some say 6 hours, some say longer.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

I've gotten two of these in one day from these mobs. I wouldn't bother with camping if you're looking to snag a Black Tabby. I usually just go there about every 3-6 hours if I'm not doing anything else important while I'm playing.

About every other time I get the cat. Yes, I hate the Channeler's Staff and that stupid Jewel Encrusted-Sash but It's more than worth it. >_<;

Most often I find the Spellscribe in the house on the right in the very back of the room on the first floor. The second most is in the main manor in the room with "what’s-his-face-wizard" for "that-one-quest" directly across from that rooms entrance. Thirdly I've found him in the building to the left in the middle/right of the hut. The sex seems pretty random but both have dropped it for me, multiple times. I hope that helps. Personally I've never found more than one of them at a time, but I'm not going to say it's impossible. Maybe Dragonblight just has hordes of cat crazy people that kill them too often, I don't know.

I also didn't know about the /target dalaran spellscribe, but I can't wait to use it. Once on my lower lvl 14 hunter I ran by and tracked humanoids, that was nice knowing it was there without running in and killing myself. So I hopped onto my lvl 60 warlock...my highest, feth you! *laughs* Anyway...It was still there when I got to it. *Love my faster mount!* I got the cat that time as well. Really I'm usually a very unlucky person especially when it comes to rolls. I get crit’s all the time in D&D unfortunately they are critical failures. Heh* My point is, yes for most it seems to be a 1 in 3 drop. No it's not nerfed, YES IT STILL FLIPPING DROPS! If it ever stops dropping I'll be the first to be on here whining and wailing about it, believe me.

Also they are almost always surrounded buy an entourage.

Don't give up! Yes the sash drops like mad but you've got a 66.7% drop on that as opposed to a 17.0% drop chance. Come on now it's not like it's the Shadowfang. :p

-Go from UC via Flightpath to the Sepulcher in Silverpine Forest.
-Run down the road towards SFK, take the road to the left a bit before the one to SFK. THE AMBERMILL.
-try the /target dalaran spellscribe I guess or just look in each house. Or if you're a hunter just track the bastards.
-If it's there rejoice...if not hit your desk a few times...then leave and come back later. It has to be there sometime. You can't be that unlucky....right? O_o

GOOD LUCK! ^_^

Commentaire de Allakhazam

I've only spent a couple of nights on this, but I did get a cat and here are some observations:

The first time I found this character was 2 nights ago. I just ran through for about an hour killing everyone within the walls of the compound. The first time I found her she was in the shack to the left of the entrance into the compound. She dropped a sash. It was late so I gave up for the night.

The next day for the second kill I learned of the /target trick, so I camped at the opening in the wall that surrounds the compound and logged in every once in a while to try it. I tried logging in and using /target dalaran spellscribe every once in a while and just to check to see if it was working I would /target dalaran mage and my character would target a mage. I never got the spellscribe to pop up with the /target command. After about 3 hours of this I decided on a whim to go in and clean house and the spellscribe was there, in the house to the right. This time it was a man and he dropped the cat (and the sash).

Between the two nights I played a patch was issued (3.3.2). I'm not exactly sure but I think the first time I saw the spellscribe it was a normal NPC, and I'm certain the second time I ran into the spellscribe he was an elite NPC. Also, if you are going to try /target you may want to physically find that person and kill him/her and then try the /target command to make sure you are not misspelling his/her name or leaving out capital letters and kind of get a feel for the range of the command with respect to the spawn point (note: I've only read that you can target dead characters but haven't tried it myself). Just use some patience; park a toon out front, log in every half hour or so and either clean house or try to get the /target command to work. It's better than the alternative of buying one at AH. We looked after I got it and the only one there was selling for 900g.

Edit - After looking at the second screen shot of her here and reading up on rare/elite at wowwiki: http://www.wowwiki.com/Rare_mob I remembered the difference that struck me. When I encountered the spellscribe last night he had a gold dragon with a wing, and so I think in my first encounter the spellscribe had a silver dragon and that is why I didn't notice it. I'll try to find him/her again a couple more times and get screen shots.

found in house at 62, 62. got cat on first kill.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

where is this guy? i want a cat

Commentaire de Allakhazam

I killed a spellscibe (in Shadow Council realm) and he dropped this cat carrier (Black Tabby), I haven't been able to find this black tabby carrier on any databases, and since the spellscribe usually drops the maine coon, I am assuming that in this new 1.6 patch they changed the name. after all the maine does look like a black tabby. although I didnt see mention of this in the patch notes for 1.6. has anybody had this drop before?

Commentaire de Allakhazam

I can confirm the above. After camping out for a while, I managed to find him/her (both sexes were present) three times, once in every house in the keep. Got the ashes every time, and on the third time, the cat carrier finally dropped, so for me the drop rate is 1 in 3. I am guessing from my experience that the respawn time is somewhere around 2 hours.

The macro "/target dalaran spellscribe" was invaluable. I starded using it after the first two times and it saved me from having to go in and fight just to see if the MOB was there or not.

The kitten is so cute, it made all the work quite worth my while even though I did not get any leveling done.

Now I need one more cat carrier, this time for Booty Bay AH. Then I can finally leave this place again and continue my leveling.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

I haven't bothered collecting the cats up until now, but I got my cat on my first spellscribe kill :)

Commentaire de Allakhazam

The only realistic way you can get the cat if you are Alliance is if someone on the Horde side puts it in a neutral Auction House (Booty Bay or Gadgetzan)... Considering that the people who get it on the Horde would be around level 25 or so when they get it means that they probably wouldn't be near such an AH, nor would they know the value of such a cat, so it would be pretty hard to get it for Alliance. Nice cat, btw...

Commentaire de Allakhazam

he does not drop the cat anymore nor the staff. He only drops the belt I am sure of this now. I always kill him and get the retarded belt. Always.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

I came here specifically looking for the cat pet. In a rare bit of actual good luck, I got both the cat carrier & sash off the first one. I already had a better belt so I put that on the AH, but I kept the cat for myself. Looks nice! Mine was in the rightmost house inside the walled area (toward the back), guarded by a couple other mobs. I also had to kill about a dozen mobs just to get to the house. The /target macro is invaluable, as others have posted. Once I cleared out all the outside mobs, I sent my vw straight in at the spellscribe. It was able to tank just well enough to avoid getting killed by all the mobs (spellscribe, warder & his adds, & a caster + vw minion), though even at lvl 23 it was kind of a tough fight. Most mobs were 16-18, spellscribe was 21. Even before I got to loot the corpse I was set upon by 3 other wandering mobs, thank goodness the vw's are so good at tanking & holding aggro.

Looted a chest on the way out, again not without a good fight. Nothing of real value there, except some copper ore.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Spawnrate: 1 every 184 minutes. Camped these guys for over 3 days. No kitten.

Make a new character, go looking for the bloodstones - Dalaran Shield Bearer (I believe that's the name) drops one after nine or so kills.

There is a new dent in the side of my computer.

(Don't worry - steel case from a mid-80s Tandy. Could probably stop a small-caliber bullet.)
