Azure Crane Chick

One of the few 341 strength birds available. It doesn't come with much of defensive moves. Quills hits for alot. Then use Cleansing rain for a small team heal, but most importantly boost aquatic attacks by 25%. When you go below 50% health you will still hit first with Surge, and that move is further boosted by the rain. Pair it with an aquatic pet for some more synergy. Pretty good vs Crows, you know they will call darkness so do rain and then do surge, they don't get speed bonus.

Aside from al lthe comments for "what is the drop rate on this chick" The breed that I found that works best is P/P, quills are pretty good but need another pet on your team that is fast to balance out and counter oponent, if required.

I have looted 4 of these and 3 came from the same nest location, although I run up and down that area and not everytime I loot do I get one but worth a try. Nest is just right of village pier @ 33.1, 90.02. Good luck!

Have a stone ready. He's uncommon quality when learned (aka green)

Took about 20 nests for me. These are by the area next to the beach around the trees. They look like well little nests :D Fortunately most people seem to pull the cranes and not touch the nests. IF there are cranes up they will aggro to you after looting the nest so beware!

Its the only flyer that has an attack that damages elemental. There's an anoying beast critter in the Lunarfall quest that switches his damage taken from beast to elemental.

Got my first one today after 19 tries... another 5 nests later and a second one drops. Both S/S

Got mine after approx. 30 nests! 

I must be quite unlucky with this one. Almost 2 hours now of running from nest to nest, probably over a hundred by now. Yet, no pet so far.

I've had really good luck with the nests closest to the shore.  People seem to not realize they're there.  Worth checking out! :)

Spending some time on the Timeless Isle (is that possible). I will look for nests after those comments. 

Wow got this on my first nest! Love the pet!

Well, I must just have unbelievably bad luck, I have yet to get one from a nest after about 100 nests, I now own one thanks to a very lucky and kind guild member.  He suggested that there might actually be a bit of a pattern to this after he managed to get 4 in one evening (about 2 hrs of on and off nest raiding).  Not sure if it is, but it is an interesting possibility.

well I'm well over 300 nests now and still no pet =( I swear I have the worst luck with drops! 

eta: over 450 now (likely closer to 500), plus all the nests my bf searched with no luck either. Maybe tomorrow will be better.  

update: Finally got him! Just shy of 700 nests. Only a B/B breed, AND he is learned green quality. But I don't care! He's mine! :D

So don't give up! You'll find yours too!

update2: and then I got a second one 5 nests later >< Same breed. 

Got mine on my 55th Nest, give or take. P/P breed for me, it is uncommon once you learn it.
