Thanks to the awesome videos and discussion throughout I successfully completed the Hivemind quest chain tonight. Thanks again Ellay for your videos! A couple notes in case others miss the information:

1. Red monocle do solo. Absolutely get the https://www.wowhead.com/item=54465/vashjir-seahorse from Vashj’ir opening quest chain. I initially did not and regretted it almost immediately. Swimming is just painfully slow when you aren’t on the bottom, plus underwater breathing has to be monitored (unless you were smart and had potions) Because this mount is not account shared if you don’t solo Red Monocle you’ll have to do this on every character. Also the red monocle quest chain takes a bit of gold (~3k?) plus this is a long quest chain!

2. The rest of the monocles no issue doing as a group. Fun and some long but nothing like Red.

3. Petting the kittens use the process that tsincaat (thank you!) mentioned earlier with ISboxer variable keystroke and IWT. Just makes it so easy. Also as a reminder when you get your code from the damage you received clicking the lost cat toy if you have any absorb make sure to add that to the damage!

4. The video series is just excellent. With some of Wowheads steps and images to help it really was a fun quest chain. Remarkable how they solved this, just so many “how on earth” moments.

5. I’m late to the party getting this mount and wish I had taken time when this came out to get it. It really is the ultimate multiboxers mount!
