Myself, I started the grind for the notes to get the mount on May 28th. At the time I had 8 from Southern and 4 from Zadnor left to get, I already had all the ones from Reginae.

Turns out I was already lucky in Zadnor as I only had to worry about Dabog for the 5 star. The rest just were from stuff that hardly showed up. Southern though I had ALL the big 5 star ones to get, and some of the annoying others like Dyunbu.

I thought this was going to take some weeks to get.

Ended up getting all the notes I was missing in 6 days, with the last one, Dabog 2, finally dropping on Wed morning. (That one was a royal pain!) I would say about 20 hours of grinding the various skirmishes, engagements, and instances since the 28th. Did no duels.

So yes, not impossible, just time consuming and hoping for Lady Luck to be on your side.

But hey, we have a long drought ahead of us, gotta do SOMETHING to stay interested in the game, right?

Since that goal is now done, I have turned to trying for those TT cards and learning how to play the card game so I can get that mount.
