Introduced with the latest trading card game, March of the Legion. Only obtained by redeeming codes on the actual cards themselves.

Kommentar von Kabuu

This kite acts as an companion/pet. It will follow you around like any normal pet would, and is attached by a string. When you summon it, it appears with one of four random color schemes (red, blue, green, purple). If you mount while your Dragon Kite is summoned, it will disappear. The kite is actually rather large, much larger than you would expect from the preview shots of it. I have yet to see the lightning-strike that was talked about in the preview for this item. Very neat.

Kommentar von Kabuu

Just got the lightning to strike. I would guess it happens maybe once every hour or so. A bolt of lightning hits the kite and then travels down the string and zaps you, shaking your screen. It does no damage. Very neat indeed.

Kommentar von Daldain

Where does it come from and how hard is it to get?
The Dragon Kite comes from the World of Warcraft TCG (trading card game)
TCG Expansion: March of the Legion (Official Site)
Card: Kiting
Rarity: 1/363 booster packs
Distribution: March of the Legion booster boxes contain 24 boosters and cost approx $60 USD (inc. shipping), therefore the average cost of obtaining this particular loot is $908.00. This was the first set that had increased loot card distribution.

How much would I expect to pay for one off eBay or similar?
According to http://www.wowtcgloot.com/dragon_kite.htm (most information sourced from there), the lowest Buy It Now price starts around $100 USD upwards to $135 USD, with the average quantity listed hovering around 10 items.

Facts:

This kite acts as an companion/pet.
It follows you around like normal pets, and is attached by a string.
When summoned it appears as one of four random colors. Red, blue, green, or purple.
Every few minutes or so a bolt of lightning hits the kite and travels down the string to zap you, shaking your screen. It does no damage.
The bolt of lightning occurs more regularly in rainy conditions.
Try giving it to a Druid then fly the kite whilst in flight form.
Fly the kite whilst traveling on the Stormwind-Ironforge tram or whilst on the Great Lift.
Useable at any level and therefore available for twinks.

How do the Loot cards work?
Loot cards are special rare versions of WoW TCG cards found in booster packs, starter decks, and raid decks that have a revealable unique code. Once this protective layer concealing the code is scratched away, a 25 digit promotion code is revealed that can be entered into the Blizzard offical promotions page. These codes work for both US and EU servers.

I have the 25 digit loot code, now what?
All accounts from every region in the world use http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/misc/promotion.html to redeem any and all special loot. This webpage allows you to enter the 25 digit promotion code and also select the region and realm for the character that will receive the loot item.

Upon succcessfuly submitting the above information, you will be presented with an in-game code. Write this code down or print it out; you will need it to retrieve your item. Log into the game with the character that is to receive the item and travel to Booty Bay in Stranglethorn Vale. There, you will need to find a goblin by the name of Landro Longshot. He is located on the lower parts of Booty Bay on the docks, and should be easily recognised due to the fact that he has a distinctive purple shirt and two body guards next to him.

When you find Landro, he will first ask if you are here for a promotion, and then ask you which TCG expansion your item comes from (or Points Redemption); check your loot card if you are not sure which item that is. Ensure you have got bag space to hold the item!

I just posted a screenshot of the lightning strike. I'm not sure if it's just chance, but my kite got struck once every 5-8 minutes in Zangarmarsh when it was raining. I guess that'd make since.

How does this item behave when stealthing?

Kommentar von 67741

I just got mine today. I absolutely love it

Kommentar von 137786

I got this kite some weeks ago, my gf bought 2 packs of cards and gave one of them to me, surprisingly it was a loot card in!

It's a fun thing to have when youre fishing, and I fish alot so.
Havent seen anyone else who has it, i'm on the server Vashj.

Kommentar von Wezagred

I've just gotten this sexy beast a few days ago on Kul Tiras-EU, and I can just say, I love it. I specially love when the lightning strucks :D
I think I'm the only on Kul Tiras who got it.
Just.. It should be avaible to have the kite out while mounted; I hate to keep on summoning it!

Kommentar von 154438

Kommentar von 156620

This pet actually comes with a rope pet leash attached to it thus buying one from the pet salesmen Breanni in Dalaran is useless unless you want two leashes... I wonder if both will show up.

Kommentar von 468765

Aw cute! I want one!

Kommentar von Thestranger

Recomended usage for Hunters and Frost Mages who are attemting to solo dragons.

Kommentar von Shym95

I just simply LOVES this one its like the most epic pet ever! <3<3<3

Kommentar von hotsuma001

I just received this pet and it is by far my favorite pet of all.

Kommentar von Noctemus

Is this companion bind to account or bind when picked? I would really appreciate it would be BoA.

Kommentar von 860927

Some very important information to consider before buying:

1. This pet will NOT follow while mounted. It automatically dismisses itself when you mount up and will re-summon once you dismount. I was a bit disappointed when I found it doesn't even follow you while on a 100% ground mount (non-flying)
2. Lightning strikes in home cities generally occur every 10 minutes, it's pretty cool.
3. It can be used during boss encounters, lightning strikes will also occur at their regular time rate.
4. Each time it is summoned, it has an equal chance of becoming any of 4 main dragon flights. (black/red/blue/green) (Sorry, no bronze)
5. Walking/moving/casting DOES NOT reset the lightning timer. They will occur on time regardless of movement.

All in all a really cool pet. The main thing I disliked was how it can't be seen while on ANY type of mount. Also for some reason during battlegrounds it isn't re summoned when you resurrect. The same goes for every pet, but just another peve I had.

Enjoy ^_^

Kommentar von Ayriela

Info from this news post!

Kommentar von Samaramon1

Just saw it in the BMAH, 15k bid.
I just had to bid, of course.

Kommentar von Deathlord

I bought this lovely fella on the Black Market like 2 days ago on Argent Dawn, 20k bid and the last 5 minutes it went up to 57k... Tho I do not regret it because this pet is stalking my new Pandaren Monk main where ever he goes.

Edit: Changed stacking into stalking, bad typo.

Kommentar von Huennin

Was supposed to be usable in Pet Battles in 5.1 according to (PTR Patch Notes), but as of the release of 5.1 it isn't.

Edit: Maintenance and/or restarts during the week of Dec. 2 appear to have fixed its pet battle status! I was just able to use my kite in a battle, although it's huge compared to other pets on the "battlefield".

Kommentar von 550668

This has a chance to be sold on the Black Market by Landro Longshot.

Kommentar von Tree

As of 5.1, this pet is more animated than it previously was.

The animations have certainly been sped up. For example, it's tail whips around in the air quicker than before, and it flaps it's wings more often. ~~However, it also no longer resembles an actual kite. It does not float up in the air anymore, and instead waddles behind you on the ground.~~ It appears they finally fixed it, so it flies in the air once again. Along with that change, it's a lot bigger than it was at the beginning of 5.1. Pretty cool!

Kommentar von Elvine

As of 12/5/12 Dragon Kite is now a Battle Pet!

Kommentar von trozen

Just won this on black market. 135k. Totally worth it =) its huuuuge

Kommentar von 751581

While they did make this available for battle as of 5.1, some other changes happened to it then as well. Sadly, it no longer changes colors. It is now always resembles Onyxia. It also flies lower to the ground, sitting almost directly on top of your character.

Kommentar von 1016364

This Companion can now offically be used in Pet Battles, so expect the price of this badboy to increase when bidding on the BMAH.

Got mine for 30k btw a few weeks ago =)

Kommentar von 1063197

This just went for 96k on Lightning's Blade (US).

It's really badass, and the actual card you would need to obtain this costs anywhere from $140-$170 on eBay. Looks kickass in pet battles.

Kommentar von jeremyjw

in pet battles this pet will be strong against beast types

beast attacks will be weak against its flying type
and its mechanical attacks will be strong against beast types

unfortunately, it's the only one ive found with this configuration

pity it's so hard to come by

Kommentar von Vizime

Just bought this from BMAH for 125k and I won't regret it. This pet is so awesome, it's HUGE, can be 4 colors and is unique in so many ways.

Thanks BMAH :D

Kommentar von Entilzha2161

I find it to be BS that the only pet that is truly Op against beast pets (takes reducded damaged but can do extra via it's mechanical attack) is only available from TCG. Granted it may appear on BHAH but I haven't seen it yet on my server and since any serious pet battler will want all the OP pets against each class, I feel like this is a way to force people to pay the ridiculous prices this card sells for to have the only true Beast Killer pet. Oh and my list of the other OP pets is confidential but you should be able to figure it out :)

Kommentar von Kawney

Mine stopped changing colors, why?

Kommentar von 664871

47k in my BMAH, should i buy it : / ?

Kommentar von 481004

i have for sale on akama horde side for cheap, pst or mail glasstoker

Kommentar von Maniakra

Is this pet account wide? I see it on the BMAH and tempted to buy, but only if all my toons get it.

Kommentar von Dust

169,100 gold. That's what this sold for on my server's BMAH. The alternative is spending $160 + in real cash to buy the loot card.

The takeaway here is that one way or another, whether with in-game currency or the real thing, you're going to need to be someone of substantial means in order to afford this.

Kommentar von Basilikum

As of patch 5.2, this now changes color whenever it is summoned.

Kommentar von Ziiriith

As stated below, it now changes colours like it should and does actually get electrocuted occasionally.

Kommentar von 1113242

Wanted to add that on 3rd of March on Lightbringer-EU this was on the Black Market AH. I fought hard, and won, with a final bid of 168,000g.

Kommentar von 822315

This is currently the only flying pet with a mechanical attack, i.e. beasts attacks are weak against it and at the same time it has an attack that's strong against beasts.

Kommentar von Stackhouse

I purchased this a few days ago at the BMAH on Echo Isles, for 300k, That's right, 300k. When I got to the BMAH, the Dragon Kite was already at 57k. I took it to 80k. Some one else took it to 120k. Then someone else took it up to 180k. I took it to 200k. Then someone else took it to 220k! I decided to bid it up to 300k. That was as far as I was willing to go. I figured that if someone else wanted to bid more than 300k, then my hats off to them.

After I won that battle at the BMAH, and acquired the Dragon Kite, I must say, this is a incredible looking pet/battle pet. I was at the Shrine of Seven Stars, and the huge electric shock from the kite to me was hilarious! A toon next to me said, "Ummm", then he backed away and ran off! lol! This is definitely worth the coin to get at the BMAH.

Kommentar von hiramloram

Got one last week for 79k on the Nordrassil BMAH.

Contrary to older posts, I can confirm that this pet no longer despawns when you mount. It will trail behind you on your ground mount. It will also trail you if you're on a flying mount or in swift flight form, as long as you don't actually fly. The instant your state changes to "flying" it despawns.

Even though purchasing these TCG pets requires a significant amount of gold, one advantage they hold over most of the stuff bought from the BMAH is that they retain negotiable value after they are purchased. Someone inquired about buying mine two days after I got it. I intend to keep mine, but it's nice to have the option to sell it or trade it for another rare commodity.

Kommentar von Tronski

There seem to be something fishy going on with these at the moment. The auction house on my server is flooded with these at prices between 15k and 35k. Fair enough that these start at 15k on the bmah, but so does the rocket chicken which I haven't seen below 75k.

Kommentar von Midnighttamer

Just got this from my Second Unclaimed Black Market Container for 16k :) bmah even tho you gave me a first container with a ring for druids and im a warrrior lol. thank you.

Kommentar von maely

Is very widely duped now, and so I got around to picking one up for about 17k. Periodically causes a large cloud to appear above your head and then a lightning bolt strikes the kite. It kinda scared me the first time it happened; I thought I was about to get censered by a Boomkin or something.

Kommentar von mojo26

It appears that at some point they changed it and this kite now stays out when you are mounted! Fear not fellow pet/mount collectors :)

It still disappears upon swimming.

Kommentar von 1485525

i saw this pet in bmah and i wanted it so i waited till he switched to 30 minutes but the auction completed within 22 minutes and not 30 wtf i am very angry how can i every get this

Kommentar von bronsta97

I paid 40k off AH for this pet incase someone is wondering around how much they're worth. I've been watching the price of them for over a month,they've been 50k+ on my server an as soon as one hit 40k i took it.

Kommentar von Jeolene

Just picked one of these up on the AH (won't say how much, you don't want to know anyways). I can confirm that this does still stay summoned on ground mounts, disappears on flying mounts, but resummons when you dismount. It is still a battle pet (the Tuskarr kite is the only other) and it does still change colors at random when summoned AND it still does the random lightning every ten minutes. I think this is the best kite among the entire collection.

Kommentar von Nadiv

Another fact
You CANNOT copy its model with Magischer Haustierspiegel

Kommentar von Goodpizza

Even though these were duped a lot in the past I believe Blizzard got rid of a lot of the dupes, or, at least a fair share of them.

Regarding mounting on the ground: Yes it will stay with you on a ground mount, unless you go too fast or meet a hitch in the terrain. I tested on the ground to see if it would re-appear upon dismounting if it disappears when you're on your mount. It did not. I CAN confirm that if all goes well and it stays with you that YES upon dismounting it will stay with you and you won't have to re-summon it. As someone else says it disappears when flying and won't re-appear upon dismounting.

I managed to snag it for 185k on my server tonight. Even with the dupes that's a good investment for the future considering how much they go for usually and will likely be going for 4-5 years from now. Or I can sell it on another server for a lot more and buy a token and some other stuff and make some money in the process. I think I'll wait.

Kommentar von JoeAlder

Blizzard is bringing these again as a Twitch Drop reward for Dragonflight. From November 15th through 17th, watching four hours of any content creator streaming World of Warcraft: Dragonflight will reward you with this coveted pet.

This will probably upset those that paid an obscene amount for it, but keep in mind that it's not stated anywhere that you won't receive another Kite if you already had one, so you can outright sell it to those who missed the drop.

Kommentar von avatarofshadow

This will be one of the items given away for free by watching Twitch streams next month. Here's the link with the information.

https://www.wowhead.com/news/dragonflight-twitch-drops-earn-rewards-watching-and-supporting-creators-329628

Kommentar von Hefalumpy

The pet given to use for the Twitch drop is NOT tradeable, but the one from the trading card game still is. They both seem to have multiple color chances when they are summoned. So, the main difference that I've found is that the one from the trading card game can be crated and sold while the Twitch drop CANNOT.

Kommentar von Sylvaine

So upon hearing the Twitch Dragon Kite drop wasn't unique, I went to sell my other Dragon Kite....but...

...when I caged my TCG Dragon Kite pet, BOTH dragon kites (TCG and Twitch Drop) disappeared from my collection but only one dragon kite was in my bag.

I re-learned the dragon kite pet in my bag and both were popped back in my collection. Weird. So much for at least making a little money...anyone else have this strange bug?
