Sea Turtle is a vehicle in World of Warcraft, and players can catch it with fishing. Of course, you still are able to catch other creatures to be your vehicle; some are hard and cost your much WoW gold, some are opposition. Here we will introduce some information of Sea turtle and how to catch it!
Basic Information of Sea Turtle
Requires Riding Skill 75. Binds when caught.
In water, riding the Sea Turtle gives a 60% increase in your (un-buffed) swim speed. On land, it runs at your normal running speed. C Rage comments, "It just barely outpaces the Hook of the Master Angler. The turtle is maybe five or so percent faster? Let's not even bring up water walking, the turtle is just blown out of the water there."
Catching the turtle awards the achievement, "Turtles All the Way Down".
Requirements
Only personal level 30 is required to ride the Sea Turtle. If you are low leveler, you can buy WoW power leveling service in our site, of course, you still allow buy WoW gold in here if you are lacking of it. I recommend level 77 or above, with an epic flying mount (and Cold Weather Flying trained). This will allow you to fly between pools quickly. Anglers between level 30 and (about) 70 have fewer options for catching the turtle - you cannot safely reach all locations. Some tips for low-level anglers are given below.
In theory, the Sea Turtle can be caught with fishing skill 1. However, lower skill wastes a lot of time, because many catches will be junk items. I suggest at least 300 personal fishing skill before seriously starting to fish for the turtle. You will need an effective skill of 575 (including bonuses from gear and lures) to fish everywhere the turtle is found, without catching junk. No matter what class you chosen, you are able to learn and train your fishing skills, but you may spend some of your World of Warcraft gold. Remember, the turtle can only be caught in Northrend, so you must have felt the Wrath of the Lich King.
Strategies of how to catch the Sea Turtle
There are many different strategies for fishing pools and catching the Sea Turtle mount. In general:
The Sea Turtle is very rare, but the catch is random. Realistically, expect to spend days trying to catch the turtle. You might catch it a lot sooner.
The item is bound to angler, but no confirmation dialogue will appear (this was removed from rare fish in patch 3.1). So you can safely auto-loot and quickly re-cast.
Always keep a few bag slots free: You cannot loot the turtle if you don't have the bag space to store it. So, you’d better to manage your bag before you go to catch it. You also can buy anther bigger bag from merchants by WoW currency.
Each pool contains a finite number of fish. Every 3-5 catches (when the pool disappears) you will need to move on and find a new pool to fish. Avoid sharing pools with other anglers: The pool will just be emptied faster, and you will waste time re-mounting and casting into pools which are emptied before your bobber splashes.
Pools respawn reasonably fast - often after about 10 minutes, but read Pool Spawning for further explanation. If there are several anglers trying to fish pools in the same area, consider fishing elsewhere: It may be quicker to find fresh pools in a different zone. Sometimes the best strategy may simply be to avoid all the strategies everyone else is using! The logical "anti-strategy" is probably fishing Glassfin Minnow School. Just don't tell anyone...
