Those of you commenting about bad mechanics and how terrible this was, the mechanics were intentional, the quests were freebies, and they are an unsubtle reference to something you children out there might not have the nostalgia to appreciate.

Joust was one of the original cool sidescroller video games. It was a bunch of platforms, floating over lava, and you had to take your flying Joustrich around impaling other people ostriches and stealing their eggs. The challenges were: the invincible Pterodactyl, falling in the lava, being hit by other jousters (you panzies lucked out not having to deal with that) and the game play mechanics, which were strongly rooted in inertial physics. You flapped to get air and momentum, you skidded on the ground to try to slow down.

Given that these quests were A) easy B) rewarding and C) entertaining, I see little to complain about.

Be enlightened. It could always have been worse. They could have REALLY stuck to the reference.

Комментарий от NildaHostar

If you had problems with the quests like I did (loads of other players in the cave), just fly to the northern wall of the cave, down low at the lava level you will find Numa Skyclaw with two Aviana's Guardians by his side. Behind him is a small cave that is missed by others and you can easily get the quest done there, since you have no need to fly in there, just run between two rooms. Nice and easy.

i guess i'm caught between two worlds here... i played Joust on the 2600 and i hated it then...

Комментарий от signalfirefly

Honestly, I never played Joust, and I still love this quest. It's hard, but it's fun.

I only wish they'd make it repeatable or something so I can get both pets. :(

There is a whole mess of these eggs on a ledge at 33.5, 56.6 near the ceiling. If you get there this is a cinch.

seem as no-one as mentioned, Reference to a similar game is the 1983,84 tandy cassette game Buzzard Bait. http://www.dragonwiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=Buzzard_Bait

"Prepare to joust, buzzard bait!"

I will never take my flying mount for granted again

Комментарий от TOPACE31

Best quest ever, now all I need is a quest that references Galaga and I'll die a happy man

I got a good laugh out of:

As someone who dropped many quarters into Joust machines in my youth I can honestly say when I first saw the eggs in this quest I had a moment of panic. I just knew I had to get the eggs fast before they hatched and riders came out waiting for their mounts to arrive and pick them up.

Of course that didn't happen, but it's still funny to me that almost 30 years later "knowing Joust fights" is probably more stuck in my brain than "knowing boss fights" in WoW.

And yeah, thanks Blizzard. Joust in 3D was awesome on so many levels for this old gamer.

aim for ledges with walls.

If you go back out of the instance you might not see the location of the quest on the map (since it is in the instance); the portal to get back into the instance is at (Mount Hyjal) 38, 58.

For those who do not have a coordiantes add on you can just use the below macro instead:

/script px,py=GetPlayerMapPosition("player")
/script DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage(format("( %s ) %i , %i",GetZoneText(),px*100,py*100));

P.S.
for those who are unfamiliar with wow macros, to add the coordinates macro just:
1. type "/macro" in the chat to open the macro window
2. click the new button
3. select an icon and type a name
4. paste above code
5. drag icon of macro to toolbar

Not that hard (especially if you remember Joust) the reward is alright as far as vanity pets go.... definitely a nice break from the grinding in the area

Комментарий от 728559

I never played Joust or heard of it until now. I disliked this quest because I has trouble with flapping and getting back to the quest giver. I'm actually quite dizzy and nauseated now from it. Haha. Not recommended if you don't feel well! Luckily there was an achievement and pet reward because it all evened out.

Комментарий от wowitsnic

The only problem with this quest is... It ain't repeatable :D

Комментарий от Meldizzle

If you get car sick or just nauseous easy! i recommend someone else doing this for you! i had to go lay down for the rest of the night because i felt so sick.

Комментарий от paralize24

Sorry but, this quest gave me motion sickness. Next time I will pop a few dramamine to see if that helps.

Комментарий от Kemaria

I LOVED Joust when I was a kid - how nice to see it referenced in WoW. I was waiting for the pterodactyl to appear, though! :)

Комментарий от Jollygood

I'm reading the comments as I go along and I think they fixed the mechanics a bit. I remember attempting this several times right after cata and it just did not work. It's not too bad now.

Комментарий от 560392

For some reason I forgot you can use W,A,S,D to move you character, I was jumping around trying to land on eggs when I pressed W and ran forward..

Комментарий от 65652

Like many people have been saying, this quest is bugged.
It tends to stop flying in the direction you want it to and just goes in the same direction regardless of where you're facing.
I found one probable cause and a solution.

Cause: For some reason, this only happened to me if I tried steering the hippogryph while pressing flap (i.e. pressing my forward key/holding down both mouse buttons while pressing flap).

Solution: Don't press the forward or any strafing keys, just steer with your right mouse button and press flap.
Also, if you are stuck and can't dismount your bird while you're flying, simply unequip the lance. You MAY end up falling to your death but it's the only way I was able to dismount the hippogryph.

this post and make it green so others can see.

Am I the only one who expected to see the eggs vibrate a little, hatch, and bad guys come out of them? I was a little disappointed that didn't happen. And no flaming hand coming out of the lava? Come on! Kids have it so easy these days...

Комментарий от 836182

I appreciate that a lot of players loved this quest chain but personally I have never felt so seasick T.T

Комментарий от 879242

no nostalgia made me sea sick and want to throw up.

Комментарий от SolarJet

My screenshot with the Tauren deathknight flying with the lance was accepted for screenshot of the day on the WoW website, stoked. I'd post a link but since they only display the pictures via flash er java or what not I can't but if you need proof go look for yourself =)

Комментарий от Skyweaver

This is probably the funniest questline I've ever completed in WoW. Thanks Blizz! =D

Комментарий от Blackhawk74

We should have been riding hawkstriders for this quest. It would have helped explained the difficulty in flight too. Plus a tiny hawkstrider pet with a lance wielding knight would have been cooler than a buzzard. Just my 2c.

Комментарий от 837805

Flat out fun - my only problem was it took me a minute to fly normal again after it was done - I kept trying to flap my wings!
