I spent most of my evening and an hour or two this morning trying to get this quest line done to not only get my Katy Stampwhistle Mailbox Toy .... cuz let's face it, who couldn't use a mobile mailbox??? .... and my Mailemental Battle Pet because..... honestly .... I'm obsessed with Battle Pets....
ANYWAY ...
I subscribe to a few Battle Pet YouTubers ..... but I adore HazelNuttyGames ... She has a YouTube I will add at the bottom you can watch. I look at her videos first ... so most of my pet teams is from her suggestions - or a combo of hers and other peoples depending what I found that worked for me.
I had also looked it up on WOWHEAD .... Lost Mail Quest Line
Basically - to start out the quest, you camp ONE PARTICULAR mailbox in the NEW Dalaran (Broken Shores) .... it's the one right outside the The Violet Citadel, at the bottom of the stairs leading up to the building. The "LOST MAIL" can be found on the ground. The spawn for it reappearing is thought to be around every 3 hours. But it only shows up at that mailbox, just that one. So you will probably find people camped, waiting, and then it's like Black Friday when it appears. Toons punching each other, feet in faces, the cows, holy moly ... they hit like a ton of bricks!! But the undead are easy to break. Just saying....
There is two OTHER ways to get a "Lost Mail" also .....
1: You can buy it off the AH .... This is what I did ... because I got tired of camping for it and got crushed by too many cows....
I actually got mine for 26K last night. (this is on Uther/Runtotem)
2: When someone completes the quest (completing up through the SHORT Game) ... they then get the Katy Steamwhistle Toy (your new portable mailbox!) ... and you also get a "Lost Letter" (the pet you don't get until you do the LONG game, 30 letters in a minute) ... now you might wonder, what the hell you are going to do with that damn letter when you just finished the quest line, butttttt..... If you like someone, like if they are your friend, and you know that they need it too, you can wave it around in their faces .... and tell them to start sucking up to you ... and you might share. OR ... you can post it on the AH for a little extra cash. Now, when this first became available I saw the "Lost Mail" up on the AH for over 100K ... now I got mine for 26K ... so depending on your market, you could make a few copper anyway ... So your new "Lost Letter" is to share or sell...
I already sent mine to my husband.... because, well.... if I didn't I might end up with divorce papers even though he told me to go ahead and post it on the AH <--- it was a trick.
Once you got the "Lost Mail" ... your first stop is the Black Market Auction House Lady (Madam Goya) down in Dalaran Underbelly ... after you do all that, you go visit the mailbox, because the next part of your quest goes there (you don't get anything from Madam Goya)...
So go to your mailbox and pick up your next step. Then you go to the Dalaran Mail Room....
So this is the ONE and ONLY mailbox.... see the grassy knoll there.... well, you walk that way and about where the dragon is (up in the air) ... is about where you want to go (but on the ground)
So you keep walking .... through the graveyard.....
And when you come to the Pet Cemetery (watch out for lil Gage! You never know!!) .... anyway, look to the right....
You'll see this tube that comes up out of the ground. (See the post above where I wrote Pet Cemetery... that's part of the gate around the Pet Cemetery) ...
When you get in there, it's kinda Harry Potter like... which makes me squeel like a fangirl ... cuz I'm weird....
Dude has a lot of "lost" gold.... ummmmmhummmm ... just sayin.....
and when I saw Pepe!!!
So first you bop around the room clicking on the flying envelopes.... super easy.
Then you are told to get a bag of solid stone (which is in the Mail Room, sparkling) ... and you need to (click on) the bag of soild stone (which makes you move like you are walking through molasses) and you gotta go toss it through a portal.
So you click on the tube to exit. It doesn't matter if you mount up or what you do, you won't move faster. Anyway - once you get back out to the ONE AND ONLY mailbox ... heehee.... you hang a left. I literally went the entire circle ... so you hang a left at the mailbox and you run all the way down to that ... what is it, I think ... a bank right? Anyway .... you run all the way down to the end of the line, and then when you get into the little courtyard, you'll see the gate to the left ... and once you get up to it, you'll see a little stone button appear on the bottom of your screen and you just click on it, and the bag will be sucked into the portal....
Then you run back to the Mail Room....
Then you are sent to get "forgotten loot" from
Then if you know a mage, make nice and offer cookies, and see if they'll port you to Theramore, and then catch the flight path down to Feralas
After a little bit of back and forth, Johnny wants you to go pay respects to his horse.... So that sends you into Eastern Kingdoms....
So once you click on Mimiron's Head, you can head back to the Mail Room ....
Once you are back in the Mail Room you have to play a mini-game of the mail sorting variety ...
You need to get 15 pieces of mail, correctly in the tube of the continent the zone and town are in.
You get the zone and town on this round.... and you need to get 15 in one minute ....
Once you complete the short game, you get some goodies.... you get the Katy Stampwhistle Toy and a "Lost Letter" to share/sell.
In order to get the Mailemental Battle Pet ... you have to continue and play the LONG game....
This time you only get the town (not the zone) ... and you have to get 30 in one minute. Yep, that's right!! You barely got 15 before, it took you a few tries? Yeah, well .... good luck! It took me several hours.
I did do the WeakAuras thing...but it does't help that much. If you are looking at the cities, you won't have enough time to get 30 of them... it helped in the sense that it helped me learn the cities. So after 400 some hours .... nah, I did it for several hours last night, and then about an hour this morning. But I wrote them down several times in hopes that my brain would retain something....
There is a code out for WeakAura (WeakAura2) ... we couldn't get it to work,but my husband did. There is another in the comments that DID work for me, but it has a lot of blank spaces (you'll see what I mean if you use it) ...
But in order for me to learn the towns, I had to write the lists down a couple of times. In the code that works, there are some abbreviations and misspellings .... just a warning ...
HERE IS THE LIST - each continent has 10 cities
