Reward from the Achievment : Higher Learning

sdkphoenix의 댓글

The Familiar has the same model as the arcane elementals in Kara except it's smaller, and doesn't kill you. :)

apathos의 댓글

So how do you obtain this pet exactly, is it purchased or rewarded from the achievement?

soterios의 댓글

Sometimes he will arcane explosion. I've only seen him do it once though.

In addition to the random Arcane Explosions (which I noticed about every 30 minutes or so) this pet has a interesting cosmetic feature. The ambient light level for this pet is set to max, as if you had the pet targeted, so that no matter where you are, the familiar is always brightly colored, even in dark areas!

For those of you that want to figure out how to get back down from the tower after speaking with the NPC to get your Familiar, you use your The Schools of Arcane Magic - Mastery item again and it will port you back down to the main level in Dalaran.

Sooo if you really want one these this is gunna be easiest way for you: first log on the moment server is up on Tues(sorry if not possible) check all the books spawn points and note times even if not right book. Second make your self a book club. youll notice people running around or spamming city trying find books make them friends and share when you find a book and have them do same. this reduces running in lag city and makes it so you can hearth there if someone finds book. I had 26 people and we all helped each other. Finally make sure you and your group check back to locations every 3-4hrs after see the books since this was the relative respawn time. having one person per site is way easier and knowing respawns and kepping track saves you time. Hope this helps. Also like add that of the 26 people 10 got there pets. 3 gave up and rest are very close.

So i ran around all night looking for these and got 3. The day after, we had a server crash, and upon logging back in, i got the remaining 5 books. So i guess we can surmise that all books timers reset upon a server reset of any kind.

Forget about camping this, just log in as fast you can, after any kinda server reset.

And I can confirm that your level is irrelevant to being able to complete the quest that rewards this pet - I spent roughly three days on my lvl 40 mage, just wandering Dalaran after getting ported there, and finally came away with the pet sometime late last night.

So just in case you thought otherwise, you do not need to be 70-80 to get this.

I gave my Kirin Tor Familiar the name "Custard" since he resembles cream.
If only Blizzard would implement a system to be able to name non combat pets...

You need to complete the achievement to receive the pet, A warlock summon will bring you to the room, but you will not get the pet from talking to Archmage Vargoth.

Will randomly cast arcane explosions, pet does not need to be idle, my familiar casted his first arcane explosions 3 days after i obtained him while fighting spiders in 25 naxx.

Edit: I have this pet out as much as possible so i can show people my achievement, however the pet has yet to do another set of arcane explosions.

Expect to see a set of explosions every 24 hours

The 12 minute timer is random. Meaning there is a chance he'll do it every 12mins. It's the same mechanism for Willy and his laser beam. Of course, he only does that when there are other critters around. Which brings me to the question....

Has anyone tried to chill in critter heavy areas with this pet? Will the explosions kill rats and such?
Someone with the pet needs to chill in the tram and find out. :)

heatseeker의 댓글

just wondering, I cant seem to see the whole body of this familiar on my pet tab (only the top part of his body is in the square box under the pet tab) whereas the rest of my pets are neatly centered in their respective pet tab boxes, is this normal?

Teriyakijin의 댓글

Combine with Papa Hummel's Old Fashioned Pet Biscuits (http://www.wowhead.com/?item=35223) for the most eye catching attention-whoring pet in the game.

The pet is already one of the largest and shiniest in the game, and it grows to the size of a Tauren, and is slightly larger than a Mage's water elemental. Stands out in raids and major cities.

It also increases the size of the Kirin Tor Familiar's arcane explosions. Be warned - you may get raid kicked if your raid leader said "No AoE" and doesn't believe you when you said it was your non-combat pet...

According to this GM, The Kirin Tor Familiar arcane explosions are a random script.

PS - I censored his name because I don't want Blizzard to fire him for saying something that he probably isn't allowed to say.

Achievement:

Reward:
(Use the book to teleport to a room on top of the Violet Citadal and speak with: Archmage Vargoth)

Archmage Vargoth will reward you with:

Req: (Read the following books, all located throughout Dalaran)

Info:

The books are on spawn timers anywhere from 3 hours to 4 hours

Each book only spawns in one location (so once you find it you do not need to keep checking that location)

Book spawn times are shared with non-achievement books (so you may see a book spawn and it will not be the one you need)

Each location seems to have 2-3 other books (non-achievement) which spawn in that location (randomly)

If you read the book it will disappear within 3min (resetting the spawn timer)

If you do not read the book it will disappear within 5min (resetting the spawn timer)

If an achievement book does spawn, more than one player can read the book and get the credit for reading it. (if they read it within 3min of the first person who read it)

When I find a book I announce it within trade chat so if other would like to read it they can (providing they can get to it within 3min)

Ask around if others are looking for books, group up, spread out to keep your eyes on multiple locations, share spawn timer info (this greatly reduces the amount of running around)

Books (locations):

Location: Dalaran Visitor Center (52.2,55.5), on the floor to the right as you go in, in front of the little table with books on it

Location: Violet Citadel (30.9,46.3), group of bookcases on the right as you go in, Bottom of the left bookcase.

Location: Violet Citadel (26.5,51.7), Up the stairs to the left, on the floor in front of the bookcase, next to the sands of time portal.

Location: Threads of Fate (Cloth Armor shop)(43.6,47.1), Go up stairs out on the balcony on top of a crate to your right as you walk out onto the balcony.

Location: Violet Hold (64.5,52.8), as you go in head to the left and against the wall on the left crate, next to Archmage Timear.

Location: Violet Gate (Crystal Portal)(56.7,46.1), to your right as you enter (northern bookcase) on the floor in front of bookcase.

Location: Legerdermain Lounge (46.9,39.1), Upstairs west room, empty bookcase

Location: Legerdermain Lounge (46.9,39.8), 1st floor western bookcase near the door

If you're a pet collector like me, I'd highly recommend this guide, care of warcraftpets.com.

For those of you who want this pet yet are not willing to camp the books for days, the best time to get the books are the day or days after a patch comes out. Most of the time the servers will be restarted a few times before things settle down and every time the server restarts, the books respawn.

Tuesday maintenance days are also a good time to try for these. Be sure to be one of the first few to log into the server since the books only have a 3 minute window to be read.

Upon completing the quest:

Welcome (class), to my humble retreat. I find this place very relaxing and I have always loved being at home in Dalaran. Sometimes though, it can be a lonely place... such a lonely place.

- I have a book that might interest you. Would you like to take a look?

Amazing! There are passages in here that I have never seen before. This must have taken quite a while for you to track down. If you ever find anymore books like this, I would like to be notified immediately.
Please take one of my Kirin Tor Familiars with you just in case you stumble across anything.

- Thank you! I will be sure to notify you if I find anything else.

This may be a false observation, but ever since I got this, I've randomly heard something humming in the game (it lasts about 15-30 seconds, and happens every once-in-a-blue-moon... but it never happened before I got this little dude).

I think I'm gonna ask a GM about it next time I have a ticket.

Just wondering, what is the significance of this?

Warriorrace의 댓글

I've gotten this guy on 3 of my toons now and I have to say one of my favorites and he really sticks out in raids or just sitting around in cities.

*EZ-MODE way to get this pet*
When you're sitting in Dal doing nothing but talking in trade or guild, and I know we all do it! Just run around and check the spots. There's really no easy way or short cut :D just remember to do it every chance you get.

As of 3.3.5, this pet looks strangely darker. I'm not sure if he isn't radiating as much light as before or what.

Azrilar의 댓글

May I suggest that the "Use" effect is misleading? The text there is more suitable of the yellow-orange tooltip (or whatever the fancy name for it is) underneath.

D3cad3nce의 댓글

I got this 3 minutes before server shut down, found the last book wich was ironicly the introduction novel. Took me 3 weeks of patrolling the spawns everytime i came to dalaran. People keep saying the spawns are every 3-4 hours. I found this information almost useless simply because unless you camp a specific spawn all day you wont know when to check back again, you may find a book already spawned but theres no way to know how long its been sitting there for unread. The fake books that spawn are always worth a read btw. And as many warlocks have stated above, being a warlock it is an AWESOME pet. Happy farming.

People who want see the "hidden" room you go to after finish quest can get there 2 ways:
#1 warlock summon requires the people summoning you and warlock of course to have found the pet and lept book
#2 recruit a friend summon
a bunch us summoned people there for fun even got a few to delete there hearth stone:P("you cant get here unless delete it") andway its fun place for a private party.

Success!

After a week of collecting the books it all came down to one, The Schools of Arcane Magic - Necromancy.

With a mindset of determination, it came after an embarrassing 12 straight hours of waiting for it. Yes 12. There were two bogus books then finally the real one.

My suggestion to all that seek a book that is being pesky, camp out once if necessary, then when a bogus book appears set your stopwatch and return in about 4 hours. This will minimize your waiting around.

In the end, I have the achievement and yes, another pet for my collection.

Good Luck!

When riding a ground mount or a flying mount on the ground, the pet will keep up with you as you ride. As soon as you take off, however, the pet despawns and will only re-emerge once you dismount.

Can you really still get this thing? I found four of the books pretty fast, then nothing but fake books for months.

After taking an embarrassing amount of time to complete this achievement, I was thrilled to finally receive my book in the mail. To my surprise, though, there was no Kirin Tor Familiar. You must use the book, which teleports you to Archmage Vargoth's Retreat inside Violet Citadel. Talk to him and he will thank you profusely for showing him such an exciting book and give you a Kirin Tor Familiar for your trouble. Why Blizzard doesn't flag the book as a quest item, I'm not sure, but if they had, I wouldn't have taken a day and a ticket to get my little Kirin Tor guy.

For those of you who are obsessive pet collectors, please note YOU CAN NOT LEARN MORE THAN ONE OF THESE.

I was farming the books and started finding spawns of books I already had, so I decided to try for the achievement on three toons simultaneously (I had daydreams of an awesome team comprised only of these little guys). You can get credit for the achievement on multiple toons, but can only have one Kirin Tor Familiar on your pet list.

Figured I'd give all the other obsessive pet collectors out there a heads up before they went to the same trouble I did.

P.S. I'm curious about whether this rule could be bypassed if someone had the pet on multiple toons prior to the introduction of pet battles. Anybody know for sure?

I just started looking for this pet/achievement today. I received it on another account that i no longer play, and was curious on the Sisters of Elune server is there a channel anyone's using for the spawn points.

This little fellow can be acquired by a trial account (f2p) twink. Once you receive the 'Higher Learning' achievement you'll see a notification that you have new mail from Rhonin. Of course you can't actually access that mail. No problem! Just speak with Rhonin and he'll give you a copy of the book. Use it to visit Archmage Vargoth and he'll provide you with the pet.

Probably obvious but you can only get the pet with the character that finished the achievement. I tried using the toy to get to the hidden room and Vargoth was not there; switched to the mage (who found the books) and there he was. Pet obtained!

poosha의 댓글

Crucial info for knuckleheads like me: I tried using the toy in Dalaran and he was not there in his room!
After reading all comments on the toy, the pet, the achievemnt and the Archmage Vargoth npc comments, i realized i was in the wrong DALARAN!
You see it can be used in both versions of Dalaran, but the good old Crystalsong Forest version is the correct one ;)

After quite a looonggg time finally did it ;). It appears that right now, during the SL release, people are too busy to do this achie, so books were up there almost every 2 - 3 hours. Many fakes tho so it took a little, yet, as said - final four books were very, VERY fast to find (again, as said, right now, during SL ;)) comparing to previous four. If u still after this beauty, the time is NOW ! It's a one-time opportunity so GO FOR IT ;). Happy hunting ;).

The Schools of Arcane Magic - Mastery is a toy which you can see it in your Toy Box menu. If you're having trouble to figure it out just open your Toy Box click toy and *puff* you are in secret room.
