I almost spent the entire first day doing it too. I ate and drank infront of the computer while fishing....Then, today i cleaned out my guild bank and sold all of the fish. After realizing that they were in high demand right now on my server, i decided to go fish up some. 11th cast and i got the turtle....Some of my guild was trying for it too. I am so excited, i love this thing. But it seems to get you when you least expect it. I actually forgot about it for a while</p> <p>Zone: Grizzly Hills<br /> I was not even looking at my screen that second, I was merely going by sound. After I heard a acheivment sound and a bunch of whispers following within a second. I looked and saw it in my bag, But to my avail, the pool in front of me was not there. Either, i caught it in open water, or it was the last catch of that Glacial Salmon pool.....not sure. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/coralshell-turtle-a-mount/page/5#post-6690 Sun, 19 Jul 2009 21:50:15 +0000 Noellis 6690@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>I had read that Pool of Blood is unconfirmed.

Since many catches from pools in this area net a 'pool fish' and a pygmy sucker fish it's reasonable to say this took me around ~150 - 160 catches from pools to get.</p> <p>I sure hope this is the case when 3.1 goes live. :) Until then, I'll be cruzin' around Dalaran on my little buddy. :D </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/coralshell-turtle-a-mount/page/5#post-5098 Sun, 05 Apr 2009 20:47:38 +0000 Azaguth 5098@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>I'll be fishing it up solely to add to my mount count...at 60% its not worth even taking out in Dalaran though.</p> <p>As a DK, simply path of frost and run over top of the water at 100% increased speed (or 120% if you have 2/2 talented On A Pale Horse), then swim down to whatever depth you need to go to.</p> <p>In order for this mount to be even slightly useful Bliz needs to add some SERIOUS underwater content. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/coralshell-turtle-a-mount/page/5#post-5080 Fri, 03 Apr 2009 04:57:04 +0000 Gummo 5080@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>I think for low-level horde, Vengeance Landing in Howling Fjord is much less dangerous, assuming the turtle can be caught from the nearby Manta Ray pools. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/coralshell-turtle-a-mount/page/5#post-5058 Tue, 31 Mar 2009 12:35:36 +0000 TheTacoMan 5058@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>As a warlock with the hook, i can confirm that the glyphed unending breath does NOT stack with the hook.

It has a few mobs, but these are a non-issue for 80s and it's a really small area with 2-3 pools spawned anytime. Although I can see your point by fishing hidden in The Frozen Sea, I think that's a good point as well.</p> <p>Also, a line of thought: There's a minor Warlock Glyph, the Unending Breath one, that increases the swim speed of people with the buff by 20%. Maybe you should compare that with the hook and a standard 100% mount with water walking?</p> <p>Also, they should either make the mount 100% speed on water or let you fish while riding it. We can only hope. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/coralshell-turtle-a-mount/page/4#post-5054 Tue, 31 Mar 2009 10:38:24 +0000 el 5054@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>Thanks for the update. Does it have any other benefits over regular swimming (or trinkets like the Hook)? For example, people often ask whether one can fish from it - I can only assume not. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/coralshell-turtle-a-mount/page/4#post-5052 Tue, 31 Mar 2009 04:24:11 +0000 C Rage 5052@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>I'm a bit disappointed in the turtle's speed thus far. </p> <p>After swimming around with DarthT...</p> <p>It just barely outpaces the Hook of the Master Angler. The turtle is maybe five or so percent faster? </p> <p>Let's not even bring up water walking, the turtle is just blown out of the water there. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/coralshell-turtle-a-mount/page/4#post-5051 Tue, 31 Mar 2009 03:20:07 +0000 Darthnublar 5051@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>Wanted to post a quick update in the latest PTR built today the Sea Turtle's color was changed and now has a different skin than the TCG one.
