Vultros


Vultros is a rare level 10 carrion bird (specifically a blue vulture). He used to be a level 26 elite that dropped a very notable dagger called the Talon of Vultros, which was highly sought after for twinks. Since the Cataclysm the stats on the dagger have changed, and it is unconfirmed at this point whether or not he still drops it. Rogues have gotten it out of low level lock boxes, but at this point Vultros only seems to drop the typical green or white item for his level and a decent amount of experience for people leveling.

He would also make a very nice hunter pet for low level alliance hunters who come across him. Up until level 30 he is the only tamable bird in this color.

He spawns in five different locations in northern Westfall. I have indicated these spawn locations with red dots on the map below. Once spawned in, he will not patrol between these points.

Darkmist Widow



Darkmist Widow is a level 37 rare black and red spider that can be found outside of the mine north of Brackenwall Village (just in front of a fallen mine cart) in Dustwallow Marsh. She does not patrol from that location once spawned in. I have indicated where she can be found with a red dot on the map below.

She drops the typical green item and a decent amount of experience for people leveling.

She is also tamable by hunters and would make a nice pet for people who come across her. If you want this particular model and color and are having trouble finding her, she shares the same model and color as couple of other spiders in game. Those are: Zarakh, a level 19 mob for the quest The Missing Expedition on Bloodmyst Isle; Shadra, a level 35 spawned elite in the Hinterlands for the quest Shadra the Venom Queen; and the Black Recluse, a level 85 mob in Twilight Highlands.

Crazed Indu'le Survivor


Crazed Indu'le Survivor is a level 73 rare tuskarr with 14.9k health. He can be found patrolling in eight different areas in western Dragonblight. NPCScan Overlay can be a little misleading with this particular mob. At first glance it looks as if he patrols the entire length just east of Star's Rest all the way to east of Moonrest Gardens. This is not the case. He has seven different spawn points within that long area, and once spawned in he patrols in a small radius just around that particular spawn point, he will not move between these spawn points. He has one spawn point east of the Westwind refugee Camp as well. If you look at the map below I have highlighted each spawn point/patrol area in red. NPCScan Overlay is still quite helpful here in guiding you in a nice straight path over these points.


Crazed Indu'le Survivor is part of the Northern Exposure and Frostbitten achievements. He drops Seal-Fur Spaulders which are level 72 bind on equip leather shoulders with a random enchant. Like other Northrend rares, he also drops Abandoned Adventurer's Satchel, which generally contains about 20 gold, a full stack of frostweave cloth, and often times a few crystallized elements. He also yields a decent amount of experience for leveling characters.

Hayoc



Hayoc is a level 37 rare white wind serpent that can be found patrolling a couple of very small areas east of Stonemaul Ruins in Dustwallow Marsh. I have indicated where he can be found in red on the map below.

He drops the typical green item and a decent amount of experience for people leveling.

He is also tamable by hunters and would make a nice pet for people who come across him. He shares the same model and color as a few other mobs in game, the most easily obtainable being the level 40 Cloud Serpents in Thousand Needles. He also has a twin rare spawn in Feralas called Arash-ethis.

Ripscale


Ripscale is a level 39 rare crocolisk that can be found in Dustwallow Marsh.  He spawns in six different locations and patrols within each one. He does not move between the patrol areas once spawned. I have indicated each location in red on the map below.


He drops the typical green item and a decent amount of experience for people leveling.


He is also desirable as a hunter pet for lower level hunters as he is the only tamable crocolisk in this color under level 82. The only other tamable crocolisks in game that share Ripscale's model and color are the level 82-83 Neferset Crocolisks in Uldum.

Sewer Beast


Sewer Beast is a level 50 rare crocolisk that is unique not because of his skin, but because of his spawn location. He is the only tamable rare that spawns inside of a capital city. Because he spawns in such a highly populated area it can make finding this guy alive quite difficult. His name is also likely a reference to the urban legend stating that alligators can be found living in city sewers.

He does not have the traditional rare spawn loot table. He has a 100% chance to drop a grey item; there is a chance he will drop other items, but it is very very minuscule.

He spawns in five different locations in the Stormwind sewers and patrols in the water within each patrol area. He does not move between the patrol areas once spawned. I have indicated each location in red on the map below.
