I haven't been playing long but one of the issues I have constantly is these darn Wyverns that were added for BCNM drops.

whereas I am thankful these have been added for the drops to be in the game, they should at the minimum *NOT* aggro. If you want to keep them as aggressive mobs then might I suggest putting them somewhere specific/out of the way? BCNMs were always designed for the players to seek them out not for the fight to seek out the players. :(

You could just as easily get aggro by many mobs out in the field. As these "OWNM's" are sight aggressive, you can save yourself by running behind them or use invisible if you really find them to be an obstacle to progression.

Once you get the hang of where majority of them are, you will have an easier time avoiding them. As Sinclair said, they're sight aggressive so just wait for them to move and move behind them if you must go a path where one is. Good luck!

I completely agree with Etrigan. A lot of newbies have trouble with these. Put them more out of the way. It makes the server look bad. Newbies think they're bugs, or they don't know they aggro. They end up dying to something that wasn't in retail. That's something that should be avoided.

Observe: Large wyvern-like creature, scary lookin'. Eminates an aura of danger and uncertainty. Unable to gauge strength when /check'd.

Option A) Poke it

Option B) Don't poke it

That's fine for zones like Valkurm where it's out in the open. Not so much when it's lurking in a blind spot around a corner in Palborough Mines. It'd be nice if some of them were moved to more convenient spots, but probably not worth the trouble. Live and learn. Or, in this case, die and learn.
