Comment by Kalx

It is a very very rare drop from elementium nodes.

Comment by Holydarkness

I can confirm this drops from elementium nodes, I got one on my 3rd node i hit but have not seen one since and i have mined like 1000 elementium nodes while leveling

Comment by tmptfate

BEWARE! This pet is tiny. Like crazy small. You might even think your pet summon failed its so small!

I know, its shocking something can be smaller than a Gnome.

Comment by Kalx

Blizzard has fixed it, you can now see him better.

Comment by AntidotE

BOE? BOP?

Comment by AntidotE

it it BoE or BoP?

Comment by Jollef

Nothing says how exactly you obtain one...

Comment by eclampsia

You mine it from an elementium node......BOE
My husband mined one.
I collect pets so I asked if he'd give it to me (cute look, bats eyelashes).
He gave me a very baleful look.

Comment by bleens

Had one drop from a regular elementium node in Twilight Highlands just now.

Comment by waldamos

Gotta Catch Em All!

Comment by smallpwns

Just sold this sucker for 10k on the Khadgar Alliance AH

Comment by Paegan

Got one from an Elementium node Uldum in the first few hours of Cata launch while skilling up mining. I tried selling it for 20k, but a couple more appeared on the AH overnight, so I settled for 10k today.

Rare, but not so rare that you'll hardly ever see it on the AH. Probably will be down to 5k pretty soon, maybe lower.

Comment by Vampilla

Here is me and my Elementium Geode :)

And is not that Tiny ;)

Comment by Daenaria

I would have told your %^&*!-ass no.

Comment by wolfphyre87

any1 know if u learn it can it drop for u again or is it one of those things that once learned u never see it again?

Comment by vailliant

got one the first day 12 hours in while mining in deepholm learned it , and didnt bother selling it, it is a nice pet to add to my collection, havent found another so far

Comment by squareenixfreak1

This doesnt appear to be rare, day 2 on cata launch and there are 8 on the a/h. all selling from 10-15kg. It doesnt appear very rare i would wait until the dust settles on this little guy and then buy it, I'm predicting about a 3k-5kg buyout price in a few weeks.

Comment by linkdiablo

It's not actually that rare, I already got two ... I did farm over 2k veins since launch but we are barely 3 days into Cataclysm and I've seen 5 on alliance AH on Sargeras EU. Trying to get 6k from one and 10k from the second one, depending on purchase rate, we might see these pet flooding us soon.

Comment by WhiteRabbit9182

I got two today while farming elementium in Deepholm. =)

Comment by johnbrown

I too have mined a little over 2000 nodes since launch (Realm First! Illustrious Miner), and I have had 2 drop. Seems to be consistent 1/1000 drop (0.1%) in this very small sample size.

Comment by sappheiros

For all the posts mentioning how this pet "isn't that rare", please remember that it is (as of this post) just a couple days after the expansion, and you have a LOT of people mining a LOT of ore. If you're going to go out and mine 2-3k ore hot and heavy, you're going to see a couple of these drop even if it has the average drop rate of just under 1%. For every server where 3-5 showed up overnight, there are servers where no one's seen these on the AH yet. I would trust the WoWHead drop rate while remembering that a low % drop rate may not seem "very rare" if there is a lot of turnover happening (ie, a disproportionate number of nodes "being killed".)

Comment by ForesightD

The Gnome or the Geode? ;-)

Comment by gigem

Had mine drop last night and didnt even notice it was BoE and then someone told me they heard about it and i could sell it for a good amount. Nobody else on my server has it as of now and none on AH... Dethecus Alliance

Comment by Toldry

Will this pet follow you up when you fly?

Comment by tmptfate

Just to give some perspective to this post I wanted to add something. Here are my mining stats for the first 5 days regarding the pet:

Elementium Nodes Mined: 9491
Rich Elementium Nodes Mined: 767

Elementium Geodes Found: 3 >.<

So as you can see, this pet will only get harder to find as people like me mine less because there are many new things to do in-game.

edit: updated stats

Comment by tmptfate

Well played sir. Well played. =)

Comment by Lalise

Does anyone know if it is possible to get this pet from killing Geodes?

Comment by TrandomKaggus

Exact same situation, except I gave it to her. WHAT UP, NICE BOYFRIEND.

Comment by Hartge

So I am guessing I just got extremely lucky that I got mine from like the 10th elementium node I tapped.

Comment by Stevo88

I got this on my first node :x
Farmed a ton since then though and haven't seen it since xD

Comment by arghi0

I've mined a little over 3400 elementium ore, and I only saw one a bit past the 3000 mark. Very very rare, but still attainable if you're a crazy mining machine!

Comment by Tipsu18

Have mined 5-6k ores and still no pet.

Comment by Zandous

for those in over populated servers, these pets will end up going 100g each in the AH soon :C

Comment by briantorok

Selling for 10-15k on Nazgrel (Horde) atm...I've mined hundreds of nodes, and haven't seen one yet.

Comment by jolkin72

This dropped for me and I thought it was part of a quest so i learned it (coming from a guy whose gold has never gone past one k).... don't make the same mistake i did

Comment by iLikeTurtelz

This is "multi-stone", so It will be barely doable for Chuck Norris to kill this stone with one bird.

Comment by Raynre

Currently going for less than 1k on the AH of Deathwing, seems to be no less than 5 up at a time. Just found my first one today and was wondering what the heck it was worth. Wish I had gotten in while I was going for 20k, but I gave it to my main instead to learn.

Comment by Blizzo

lol

Comment by luckyislucky

i just got one after farming almost non stop since launch give or take a few days. Now the hard part.... weather or not to farm for another to sell...

Comment by Hashis

_i just got one after farming almost non stop since launch give or take a few days. Now the hard part.... weather or not to farm for another to sell..._

If u mined the nodes non stop like u said...why the #### would u farm for it to sell it?what u do with that amount of elementium ore?sell to vendor?

I mined for my main to get JC up and got the pet on day 1 as pleasent surprise :)

Comment by megamech109

Neither, it is BoU (Bind On Use) seeing as you don't equip pets you learn them (by using them) then summon the pets on demand.

Comment by AzagthothEUwow

Just got this guy after "testing" uldum as a new mining route the moment i saw him i was like "whaaaaat" also to mention that the way he droped was because i was siting for a bit when 4 veins spawned instantly nearby, could be a bug since rng hates me.

Comment by Diabolic

Comment by Thekillah

LMAO!

Comment by Hammockguy

Got lucky and found it on the AH for 4k

Comment by Nubx2140

Its probably (to me at least) worth 2k TOPS

im probably going to get downrated for trolling, or being a cheapskate etc etc

Comment by Nubx2140

You guys have all been downrated thanks to comments of no value being said

.......and ganking gamon

Comment by Nubx2140

It seems that.....

*shades*

I was right......

YEAAAAAAAH

Comment by haronto

Unique Features
This pet has a unique model which means that you can't obtain another pet which looks the same. The Elementium Geode does not have any significant animations. It simply floats around, and the outer crystals orbit the geode.

How to get it
This pet is rarely found while mining from Rich Elementium Veins and Elementium Veins. The Elementium Geode is not bind on pickup, so it can be purchased from miners.(##RESPBREAK##)12##DELIM##Sas148##DELIM##

Comment by Nubx2140

WTB People who don't downrate for no reason

Comment by timnog

This thing reminds me of the Crystalline Entity from Star Trek. Hopefully it doesn't wig out and destroy Azeroth.

Comment by Lunthus

No need to be a Mr.Smartypants. :P, It's BoE. BoE is actually Bind when Equipped, but we use it almost how people use PST as the interjection of PSSST instead of Please Send Tell. Basically, BoE is slang in WoW for things such as items that are used/equipped and become soulbound. So BoE is correct and BoU, well nobody knows what that means cause nobody really uses it. For all we know that could be Bind on Umbrella. xP

Comment by Mojorx

my comment, saying nothing, will be here forever.
even after you rate me down, 1,200g and dropping fast
Terokkar =]

Comment by Eroc

I have submitted a screen shot of it (Taurantino) so that you can see it compared to the player size. The other screen shots were too close to tell the size.

Comment by Grydan

I've got this pet on Wednesday Dec. 29th on the first Elementium farming run on that day from the first vein. Then because i was curious, I checked it's price on the AH and they go for an awful 700 gold! price on Ragnaros EU Alliance side.

Comment by Bowteck

Actually thats not true i bought one on my gnome today and its taller then my gnome know if it was on the ground then its shorter then a gnome but the fact it hovers... Gnomes are still the shortest thing in wow..... Besides Pygmies

Comment by AylaCatpaw

Why is almost everything downrated here? It's annoying, I want to be able to read the comments!

Comment by skywave

4,000 gold on Skywall...

Comment by Celd

Grabbed one for 900g on Frostwolf =)

Comment by Shooples

Before I continue with my post, I'll say this so you don't have to scan my post: this is useless information.

I think I can label this rock as lucky. Very lucky. I paid 1400g for it, prices were high at the time. Declining to 600g. Best 1400g I've spent, possibly. This is an awesome pet, very shiny.

Anyways, I took this pet on the Magister's Terrace, where I would be farming the phoenix hatchling for the next few days. I had the pet out the whole way, and thankfully, the hatchling dropped my first try, saving possibly hours of hard work. Now, I was hooked on my phoenix. I always had him out. And when I decided it was time to farm the Raven Lord, I took my phoenix down to Heroic Sethekk Halls too. I killed Anzu, and there was no mount. Today, I went in when the heroics reset, this time with my Elementium Geode buddy, and killed Anzu. To my surprise: a mount.

Before you go on preaching about your RNG, screw you. This pet is lucky. It's level of awesome is so great, you could hope to be a fourth of it's worth in a thousand years, maybe half if you're lucky.

Buy this pet. Love it. Nurture it. Polish it. Have sexual intercourse with it. By any means, treat it as best as possible. It will repay you in the end.

Comment by TristanNyght

1,600g OR 4,000 on Auchidoun

Comment by ferroz

under 1k on argent dawn, around 850g on the AH right now

Comment by Thunerflick

This vanity pet may cause confusion during the Corborus encounter in the Stonecore on heroic mode. During my visit there a day or two ago, 2 DPS thought this floating geode was one of the adds that spawns after he shoots crystals at you.. ended up wiping because they couldnt kill the last geode... lol

Comment by Mage12322

just 750g on the AH on my server, 2 pages full. Bought one, and oddlyenough, No one uses them but theres lots on AH

Comment by wimbo125

Now on the Auction House, an Elementium Geode pet for only 12000g, well Blizz you know us too well, now it's time for a catchphrase: 'Right-Click to summon your brick'

Comment by Maverickroll

Just picked one up, I was running TB early this morning and there was only two Alliance there (one of them being me) so I just ran around mining Elementium since its a great source of gold and got this pet. Nice to get a rare pet for a change :)

Comment by Thebearer

there seems to be no stats on the percentage of this getting mined from the deposits anyone know?

Comment by zephyresheridan

I mined my Elemental Geode from a regular elementium vein in the Twilight Highlands. Im guessing any vein will do.

Comment by ngen4ev

Just got one while farming.. There was one for 30k but i sold mine for 15k at my server... Rly nice drop tho ^^

Comment by Qlaryx

sounds like a deal breaker to me! ;)

Comment by K0tY

Lol lucky you, on my server price is like 150g, Too many botters on my server....

Comment by Quinnster

Just scored one of these while farming elementium in Twilight Highlands. They only sell for about 700g on my server, though, so I think I'll be keeping it.

Comment by antiflag

Wow, they are upwards of 30-40kg on my server. I may consider selling it instead of making it my 96th pet.

Comment by jek3

I'd like it if miners could dig up a larger version of this (call it Elementium Boulder or something) and use it as a flying mount.

Comment by Soeyrane

I've just looted it on a Rich Elementium Vein. I'm not sure but I think there are more chances of getting it on rich veins than "simple".
I had no idea this pet existed before looting it, and it's just as well actually, because I'd have gone crazy farming it, I think ^^'.

Comment by scrubtok

think the elementium gods were kind to me today. mined 2 geodes within the span of 15 min in Uldum. and my woman mined 1 herself in Uldum. 3 in a day? time to play the lottery!

Comment by Hexagon

These are 65g in the AH on my server, and there's lots of them. You all can stop hyperventilating :P

Comment by calilac

This pet will now fly with you. Yay!

edit: downvoted? really? that's so cute...

Comment by mimi23

This rock can fly

Comment by ghmaster8

i checked here to see if this pet is worth buying as i just saw it on AH for 140g and it was the only one, so i got it :D even tho i don't think i will ever summon it, and i am not going for any achievements :p

Comment by Amykitty

I just bought it in ah for 15 gold! =DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD I was sooooooooooooooooooooo happy i just had to tell someone about my awesome deal! =))))))))))))))))))) i knew it was really rare and i got bored on wow and something was telling me to check the ah for companions, and I saw the elementium geode for only 15 gold buyout, and i was like, "OMG! I HAVE TO BUY IT!"

Comment by GuitarGuy822

I thought this was BoP and I already learnt this so ive destroyed at least 5 of them from by bag and the latest one about 10 minutes ago i've submitted a GM ticket for after learning its not BoP and sellable

Comment by Falquan

I just completed my 2000th stack of Elementium Ore, without seeing one of these yet.

Comment by viejo

I find it a useful PVP pet, since it floats near my toon's head. A lot of times, I see opponents targeting it, which gives me a slight edge >:-)

Comment by Felzbek

I got this on my first elementium mine I found in Uldum. Only problem I have with him is that he likes to get in the way of my mouse RIGHT as I click on a NPC, or loot a corpse, or mine a nod -.- Either way its a sweet companion to have fly around with you

Comment by zaaljenkins

I've just mined this and dont know whether to sell it or equip it. Advice?

Comment by Grassgrow

have it, love it :DD

Comment by Diabolic

I've got 2 of these within 2 hours of farming and thats total of 5 Elementium Geode's since the beginning of Cataclysm (but I must say I farm a lot. q: ).

Happy farming miners.

(edit: got one more, WTF RNG?)

Comment by thorismud

funny thing about chanse is that when you have a 1% drop chanse you can mine 10 ores and have 10 drops while someone else mines 990 ores and have no drops at all.
10 +990 = 1000 10/1000 = 1% drop chanse
you have to be lucky as well.

Comment by Jozroz

I managed to get it off somebody in an auction house for less than 200G... lol

Comment by Bradraydra

I havebeen farming for this for three consective days and still no avail. :(

Comment by dedicance

I have gotten it twice now -_- but haven't seen it in like forever now its been like a month and i have been minning to get the volatiles i need and haven't seen any other all tho it showed to me in rich nodes so its probably there only it drops...

Comment by Izaac

With the coming of 4.3 transmog, this + Paladin T5 + Aldori Legacy Defender + Hammer of Atonement = Something faaabulous!

Comment by Michellin85

I got mine Elementium Geode today in Deepholm =)

Comment by Broughe

Go my first today in Uldum after a couple hundred Elementium nodes. I used mine, pretty sweet pet!

Comment by Jozroz

Perhaps not. There is A LOT on the market, each selling for just 60+g now on EU's Twisting Nether.

Comment by dedicance

Yeah well downgrade me i don't even come here often and your just doing it for the points oh well have fun little kids...

Comment by illAdviZed17

i picked up two of these in one day. kept one and sold the other for 120g. couldnt sell it for any more than that..

Comment by sloany23

i got this from the 1st Rich Elementium Vein i mined was shocked to find the drop rate is low

Comment by Nepturion

Its not that rare... there is 10 on AA AH atm..
http://eu.theunderminejournal.com/item.php?realm=H-Al'Akir&item=67282

Its an cool companion, the value of this on my server is 60g to 200g which is nice :-)

Comment by Nepturion

seems that Rich has lower drop % farming for quite some time, now:
You receive loot: Elementium Geode.
You receive loot: Elementium Orex2.

Comment by Nepturion

Seems like the Rich vein has the lower chance of getting this companion.
Been farming Veins for many months..

You perform Mining on Elementium Vein.
You receive loot: Elementium Geode.
You receive loot: Elementium Orex2.

Comment by Herboz

I guess I was lucky on the 11/11/11; my level 77 DK mined two of these in less than 2 hours in Twilight Highlands today.

And yes, mining in TH for a level 78 character (dinged with XP coming from nodes only) can be tricky but is very enjoyable.

Cheers.

Comment by Jaycoub

Some nut put this up 100g buyout on the auction house!

Comment by Sykottikks

I've gotten three of these in the past three days farming in Uldum. Got them all from regular Elementium veins. As others have said, he flies with you :)

Comment by Brooklynboy

My base is Dalaran, so one day I went to the Pet Shop {58 x 39} and was looking to purchase a pet from Breann, and there to buy for 2g 21s was a Elementuim Geode ! I bought it so fast....whew! That was two days ago, and it's still with me ! Like the other player said, it's right over your head when you fly, this guy, or girl, will be the only pet I'll need. So I hope who ever reads this will get one too !

Comment by imri500

I just love this pet. There is something about its... "Inanimate-object-turned-to-pet" magic that makes it so lovable and adorable. I just love watching this stone follow me. So much so that sometimes I find myself a victim to "accidents" ... there are to many cliffs in Wow.

As a side-note I think it would be awesome if we got an "Energized Elementium Geode" that has electricity arcing around it and moves around a lot, like, disassembles and reassembles, I do love active pets a lot...

You could also sell it to does pet collectors who are not miners, always nice when they make pets who are related to a certain profession Bind on use.

Comment by Szween

Just bought one of these from the AH for just 100g on EU Ragnaros :)

Comment by martanius

You can earn many golds by farming this companion. Simply farm elementium from Elementium Vein and Rich Elementium Vein in Uldum/Twilight Highlands (if you have 525 in mining you can mine Pyrite Deposit too)

I earned it after cca 100th try. Then you will probably have many elementium ores which can be sold on AH (and pryite too) for high amount (70g per stack on my server) so you will maybe have about 600 ores (with guild perk) so it can be sold for 2100g and some pyrite, you will maybe have about 50-80 ores (100-150 with luck) which can be sold for example 100-150g stack so 600g (1125g with luck).

It means :

Elemental ores = 2100g (cca)
Pyrite ores = 600g (1125g)
-----------------------------------------
2700g (3225g)

And if you dont want you new cute stone you can sell it too for about 1000-2000g on AH! (so you can earn 5225g!)

Comment by Xytrixz

Got this yesterday after about 6 hours of mining in Twilight Highlands, totally caught me off guard as I never knew it even dropped, but now I have another pet ready for MoP >.<

Comment by UlleLind

I finally got the Elementium Geode from a Rich Elementium Vein after 645 attempts on Rich Elementium Veins and Elementium Veins.

The Rich Elementium Vein I got the Geode from was located on the coordinates (51,37) in Deepholm, just north of the Temple of Earth.

Also, while farming the Geode I made about 34k total gold by selling the Elementium Ores on the AH. So it is also a great way to earn gold. The amount of gold you can make of course depends on luck and the AH prices on your server.

I hope this was helpful for some people! Good luck farming!

Comment by Defiant74

Funny was just reading that this is only from mining nodes, i got mine from looting one of the geodes in Crimson expense while doing dailies there. Sometimes they get cought in aoe and this one dropped it. Not sure if that was a bug or what, it is already prob about a year ago and you don't hear me complain :).

Comment by Mustang69

I've farmed well over 500 stacks of elementium and finally, yesterday after almost 2 years (since Cata expansion) the Elementium Geode dropped for me, Twice :)

So dont give up, it will drop ;)

Comment by Karvex

Grabbed 7 of those for around 75g each in cata, and now they are worth over 2k ! I suggest you buy a bunch if they are still cheap on your server because they will become very rare since no one is really farming elementium ore anymore :-)

Comment by dedicance

Someone has been bored and busy lol

Comment by Whitedrache

Just received one in a Marauder's Gleaming Sack of Gold for downing Galleon. Must be quite a few dropping as AH prices for these wee guys on my server has plummeted.

Comment by plokmijn12

I must have gotten a good deal, as I just bought one for 55g. Lucky me.

Comment by Arix0n

Pretty damage against mechanical, but as well against all others.
For example, it's level 8, and with damage boost (second spell) i skip one round, then on second i use third spell, which kills the enemy in one shot (mechanical) and sometimes in one shot on others.
On level 10+, it kills enemy by one shot only if they are uncommon or common (or mechanical). My fav one!
PS: Stone rush deals damage to itself. This is good only to use against mechanical, because on third use of third spell it's suicide. Stone Rush deals circa (MaxHP)/5 to geode on one use.
So i recommend this to you only when you want to fight mechanicals, or you have any other healing pet - or when your other pets are strong, because suicide of this one can kill one of them.

Comment by Arix0n
