I believe this will be similar to the Netherwing quest where you must bring the egg to them. Edit: Why downrate speculation?

Kommentar von Salroh

Yes, this quest is similar to collecting Netherwing Eggs for a reputation boost.

Like the Netherwing Eggs that were scattered around Shadowmoon Valley, the Onyx Eggs are scattered around Windward Isle.

But unlike the Netherwing Eggs the reputation gain for the Onyx Eggs doesn't change after the first turn in.

Hopefully a feature that will not change.

Edit: Also forgot to mention that the rep changes with whether you're in a guild or not. If you have a guild with the Mr. Popularity rank 1 perk that gives a 5% rep bonus your turn-in is now worth 525. For a guild with Mr. Popularity rank 2 perk that gives a 10% rep bonus, your turn-in is now worth 550.

About the respawn time, it's not something like there should be a minimum amount of eggs all the time. Unlike mining nodes, fish pools, etc, looting an egg does not force another egg to spawn.

A good example after a server restart eggs run out in a few minutes - thanks for the relatively small spawning area - and it often takes about an hour to spot a new egg. So the Onyx Egg pool can be easily depleted (as of now, b15913).

I have been compiling screenshots for the egg locations on my blog and will add more as I come across them.

Onyx Egg Locations

Kommentar von kpwuzhere

The eggs spawn mostly on mountains on Windward Isle. You can do this quest all the way up to exalted with Order of the Cloud Serpent.

~~Note: The eggs will disappear when you hit revered so collect what you need before you turn them in.~~

Sorry about that. They are back up and lootable :)

How do i get this quest? i have been searching also went to the NPC and nothing cant find quest or eggs, would really like to get exalted to /target Order of the Cloud Serpent

Kommentar von 1037012

Node tracker addon, like Gathermate2
records the spawn location of the egg.

Kommentar von 367551

But is it a quest that you have to accept or you just randomly find them and turn them in somehow? ive been looking for 1 hour and found nothing.

Kommentar von 1037311

How do you actually get this quest? Do you have to find an egg first?

Kommentar von Pinkiepieisfly

To everyone: You can find eggs, there is no quest for them until you obtain an egg first. My boyfriend and I were searching for eggs for a while before we finally saw one.
If you don't see eggs, /who the area and all the level 90s there would (most likely) be why. In fact, I saw two people with cloud serpents already from farming so much!

Good luck, the eggs don't sparkle and their spawn rate seems terrible. But they are big, black eggs so you can see them easily, and also note that sometimes they can be hidden in grass on mountains or whatnot, so mousing over grass/trees/etc. helps!

Kommentar von 367551

Anyone know the exact spawn rate? i just found some eggs and wanted to know how long will they take to spawn now?

Kommentar von Gempalm

I can see two eggs and can't pick them up at honoured. Also, my dragonling doesn't give me quests. GG blizz!
Ahh, 2012, when calling out bugs and half done work was inundated with downvotes. Look at us now, huh.

Kommentar von 534648

I was unable to loot the Onyx Egg as of today, 10/3/2012, I have yet to complete the starting quests, will update after I do. A druid got the egg that I could not loot, so I know it was lootable. I reloaded after not being able to loot it, still no dice. Is anyone else having this problem?

Edit: After completing the starting questline and getting to the dailies I was able to loot the eggs.

Kommentar von 1039666

Didn't see it mentioned here but would a targeting macro work on these? It's been so long I can't remember if the Netherwing eggs worked like that. Thanks!

EDIT: After finally finding one I can verify that spamming a '/tar onyx egg' macro does nothing. Happy hunting!

Kommentar von 534648

If you use the addon Gathermate 2 it will show all the nodes on your map. Makes it easy to know where to look until you get a hang of it!

Kommentar von 1041401

Ok - quick question, ow and thanks for all the info but any ideas on why the Onyx to Goodness quest may not be available?

Kommentar von Thorzhammer

You collect an Onyx Egg and Elder Anli automatically has a blue ? above her head. You hand it in and the ? is removed until you find another egg. There is no quest for you to "take", just simply find an egg and hand it in.

I received 600 rep for 1 hand in. Human Paladin, level 25 guild.

Kommentar von Aaygo

Have GatherMate with dozens of spawn locations. Been looking for days at odd hours when there's hardly any people around, yet I somehow managed to not find any eggs. In this regard this is nothing like the Netherwing eggs. Those were easy.

They either nerfed the spawn rate into oblivion or I need glasses to see them.

Kommentar von 396878

I just logged in at 5:30 to do my cloud serpent dailies after the reset at 3 (or 4). I found 10 onyx eggs in various spots, but they were all easily visible. I'd recommend trying this if you are up late, seems like the spawn timers reset and you get the first harvest.

Kommentar von ebMusicMan84

It appears that you are unable to complete this quest after reaching exalted. I currently have two eggs in my bags, and am 240/1000 exalted, but Elder Anli does not have a blue question mark for me.

Kommentar von Draggoth

Once you hit exalted you can't turn in anymore eggs, this ques won't be available even if you have more eggs in your bags.

Kommentar von Tybudd33

What about the Großes Belobigungsabzeichen des Ordens der Wolkenschlange, does it give you double rep on turn ins?

Kommentar von PvtDeth

I wish there wasn't so much Ghost Iron in this area. It doesn't really look anything like the eggs, but at a glance and from a distance it bears a resemblance to a Netherwing Egg. I spent so long looking for those things that when I'm in search mode, I still get excited when I think I see one.

Kommentar von 1071569

Ive gotten the luck of the draw on a medium server quite a few times now (meaning i collected 14+ eggs) from what i have asked, people tend to only go nuts and camp and gather them, on their first 90. They need loads, and will of course do it frequently, well i didnt even need to ask, its common knowledge since they can get the 100% rep increase for other chatacters on the account so each egg can potentially give 1200 rep. even at Reverred you only need 14 or so, and do the dailies.

Although as a note, i think the spawning is really messed up. As in, some could respawn in fewer hours than others.

Kommentar von 998027

Luckily now it's been 5.1 for a while, and on my Medium Pop server, I found 6 randomly in the middle of the day.

There seems to be far fewer people farming them now, since Order of the Cloud Serpent rep is so easily obtained. Dark Soils still seem to be getting farmed pretty rapidly even on a Medium pop server, but these Onyx Eggs, despite their terribad spawn rates, are just lying around waiting to be taken now.

I can literally go at any old time of the day every few hours and find an egg or two. So far I've found 6 on my first day.

Kommentar von Pervy

A small note about these who have time and are frugal. You reach 90 and then pick a different egg on various alts, completing your collection.

Kommentar von 1088528

Day 65th, still haven't found any bloody egg.

Kommentar von 1094693

I have noticed that the higher I fly, a lot of the bushes and grass disappear from the graphics. This tends to make it easier for me to see the eggs. The eggs stay visible much longer. I definitely found one in some bushes that I probably would not have seen otherwise. Graphics are on low and visual distance is set on fair

Kommentar von cherylgroover

The easiest way to find them it to go to Windward Isle, Northwest of the Arboretum. Up on the peaks of the mountains you will see trees clinging to the side of the mountains. Any place that you can land is a possible place to find them. They are grey with darker grey swirls. I found 7 in a matter of minutes. Since MoP has been out for a while there are not as many people farming them as there used to be. Good Luck!

Kommentar von Rj23

Having problems seeing the eggs? Try this: Go to your game menu, select graphics, look under environment and change both "Environmental Detail" and "Ground Clutter" to the lower setting. This will clear some of the ground clutter and better help you see eggs.

Kommentar von Untamable

I recommend going early in the morning. When I go in the afternoon on mid pop server there are none eggs and in the morning I find 1 per minute.

Kommentar von 1121861

can i not get the cloud serpent dailies until i get exalted with shado-pan? that's pretty stupid.

Kommentar von 1128753

Do they still have this quest and is there any other prerequisites other then watching your egg hatch? I've watched my egg hatch and I see the eggs but their is nothing when I hover over them. I can't pick them up. Can anyone help me with this?

Kommentar von Yogilaw

Just a note (ok it may sound obvious) for those who have asked.

This item is for accelerating rep gain only. These eggs are useless after you have reached Exalted with OotCS! You can still pick them up (?) but cannot turn them in to Anil at the Arboretum.

Quite why they can still be looted after max rep is achieved only Blizz will know.

Kommentar von 1200668

OK, I am confused. I have collected an "Onyx Egg" and it is in my bag. When I speak to Elder Anli, she will NOT take it. What am I doing wrong?

Kommentar von mrswarden

This has become so lame. Every single toon you grind to 90, you need to be exalted with the Order of the Cloud Serpent. Granted it is easier when you get the commendation. But honestly, you turned MoP into a rep grinding torture fest. This one was the easiest to get exalted with until you stopped the repops of the Onyx Eggs. Can we not have just one faction we don't have to spend days upon days getting rep with? I did this with 5 toons and it only took a matter of hours to get this done. I come back with a 6th and it is slow going and tedious. It gets to be mind numbing and boring after 50 passes and no eggs show.

Kommentar von haus

If you want an easy way to see all the egg locations on your mini map and regular map there are two downloads which have made this childs play for me.

Gatherer - This one shows node locations on your map and minimap.
GathererDB - This one updates from a centralized database (WoWHead) of node locations.

This works for all your herb/mining as well as special items like these eggs and the Dark Soil to pick up rep items from those too (which are also on the island).

Kommentar von Vatrius

A quick an easy way to hand in bones if you have alot:

Bind interact with target on keyboard.

Use this macro
/script SelectGossipAvailableQuest(1)
/script CompleteQuest()
/script GetQuestReward()

Kommentar von OneMoreBook1268

Was searching through mods on Twitch and found this "Cloud Serpent Onyx Eggs Coords-TomTom. I had no clue where the fraction was located for the rep. But now after reading this informative guide and comments I'm so glad I installed it!

Kommentar von ohatcheejack

I've been looking for these every day for a week & found one, LOL

Kommentar von Illidana

Each egg grants 750 rep points, but a whopping 1500 points with Zeichen der Nebel buff. So you can get from Revered to Exalted with 14 eggs when buff is active.
