Further confirmation of this drop. Farmed 5 hours last night and nothing farmed 2 hours today and it dropped! My favorite minipet now.

This pet ONLY drops from the Bogflare Needlers.
I killed 400 over the course of 2 days and was starting to get frustrated.
I went out to Zangarmarsh today and got it on the second kill :)
Good luck to everyone!

Have been trying to get me one of these cuties for a while. Took me around 500 kills or so. Really worth the grinding, and makes a nice flapping sound to.
评论来自

it kinda "hops" a little as it goes.. and the flapping is more of a light insect buzz, similar to the needler buzz but less intense
it also cleans its face periodically like insects do
and wings flap fast like needlers
and gives off little spores and dust stuff

As with most rare drops such as this one, the drop rate is purely informational.
Your chances of getting one are __completely random__, and don't improve over time - you could spend a whole year farming just this and never see it, but you could also just kill one mob during your whole time in WoW and get the drop then and there...
It's all down to luck (and a little faith!) - good luck! ^_^

There are 20 spawn points if you don't count the southeastern ones and you can cycle through them.
It took 1837 kills for me - defenitly worth it. Good luck everybody.

I took the opportunity to skillup my melee weapons and fishing while farming for this. Took 1251 Bogflares. But I maxxed all my skills. Fishing while waiting for respawns yielded a couple hundred sporefish, 30 scroll, 20+ ores, dozens of engineering parts. Mote extraction yielded a few primal lifes. A well spent couple days.

Since this was added in patch 2.1, and the kill stats on the mob date from the expansion, the numbers implied here aren't at all accurate (19 in 46k). Chances are, the drop odds are about the same as the Dragon Whelps, ie 1 in 1000 or so.

It took me 191 kills of Bogflare Needlers to obtain this little beauty :) I'm a Joss Whedon fan and fireflies have a great personal significance to me as well, so once I knew it was out there I had no choice but to grind! Thankfully it wasn't too much of a trial.
The Needlers themselves seem to have a pretty nice respawn rate even for a level 70 farming, going from the west coast of Serpent Lake around the north and then picking up the two that spawn on the south side before starting over again. You can usually pull 3-4 of them at once as well, making it pretty smooth sailing.

As others have said this only drops off the Bogflare Needlers, so don't waste your time killing any other of the firefly mobs in the marsh. I found the least frustrating way to obtain this pet was to just kill any needlers I passed by while questing in the marsh rather than grinding them for hours. I probably killed about 80 before it dropped for me. Cute little pet, definitely worth taking a little time out to try and get, though I don't think I could have handled the endless grinding that some people here did.

Weee, I just got mine ... grinded a level on those buggies before I got it too. It's a very cute little pet, 100% worth the trouble in my opinion, and I suppose in the end, determination is the key to success. =) Good luck!

2000+ kills in moderation over the span of 6 days to get this pet to drop for me. There are only 24 Bogflare Needler spawns total, but they respawn quickly and are spread out enough to make for a nice constant flow of non-stop killing, lol. However w/ the low mob count, any competition can make farming these a pain.
All in all, I am glad I stuck w/ it. What a great little pet!!! :)

to be honest..
i was just questing round zangar at level 63 and came across a needler.
when this dropped my immediate thought was that it wasnt that rare of a drop
after about a few hours of questing i threw it on the AH for 150g and to my suprise when i woke up i had 150g in the mail =]
Moral of the story: Good things come to those who least expect it ;]

I was in Zangarmarsh to do an heroic in Coilfang Reservoir, stopped to loot some herbs on my way, killed a bug that was pestering me and voila - firefly. Didn't even know they were out there. Good luck, folks! They're cute :-D

A little tip for people farming for theirs. The 3 Spore Bats in the area give you the nice +30 to all stats buff if you kill them. Helps the grinding go that little bit faster.
2957 kills later and it drops.
The only reason I say the number is to show you there is no point trying to kill steal other people's bugs, the odd 1 or 2 will not make the difference for when you get yours.
Just try to have fun. Good luck.
ps. None of the spawn points are shared so you will always get the above mentioned 24 every lap of the area.

This cute little pet drops from Bogflare Needlers. The "Firefly" doesn't look like a real firefly, but cute none the less. These little guys can drop from your first kill to your 5000th kill. It's at a 0% droprate so you may even never farm one.
Luckily I got mine on the 3rd kill. Nice little guys to have out in main cities. Attracts alot of attention, even from the higher levels.

2339 gray drops, 686 white drops, 66 greens, 2 blues, and one Captured Firefly. It took about a full week of grinding. Competing against other players for spawn points was really the most frustrating part of this. Make sure you REALLY want one of these before you get to work, because chances are you'll be in it for the long haul. However, you will make a good amount of money, and if you're under level 70, a good amount of XP as well - it took me from 66 to 69 and I earned around 500g. Good luck!

I was just sitting here on my lunch reading warcraftpets.com and realized that I have one of these in my backpack. I've had it for a while now. I was just ignoring it because I thought it was a quest item from some old quest in Zangamarsh I'll never finish. Funny. I couldn't have killed more than a few of these. Just goes to show you how truly random these drops can be! I'll hang onto it through. I mean, pass up a Joss Whedon in game reference?!?

I farmed one for myself (as you can see from the screenshot I submitted) and then I went back and farmed another one to sell to help fund my elite flying mount. I originally put it on the AH for 800 gold, but it sold for 500 gold.
I'de say it takes a good five to eight hours worth of farming to get one of these to drop. Now's the time to do it, before these become more commonplace and the AH price drops.

To explain why drop rates are important its best to start with a little basic scientific fact. The science of statistics is about showing that random numbers always form predictable shapes and patterns. I've taken statistics and here is a simple example of how it works. Write 2-12 on the bottom of a peice of paper. Take 2 six sided dice and roll them 100 times and put an X above every number that they roll. It forms a shape. Every time its the same shape. That is statistics. The more times you roll the smoother the shape becomes. It is not possible to miss one of the numbers. ( as previously stated about the all heads coin toss. Try it and fid out for yourself.)
Now how this applies to WoW and loot drops requires some understanding of the game mechanics. Blizzard has stated that all mobs have the loot they are going to drop decided at the moment they spawn. This means that at any given moment there is a slim chance that one or two of the mobs in that zone have the item you want on them. In silithus you could see what weapon a particular mob would drop because it was holding it in its hand. This means that not every Bogflare Needler in the area can drop your pet. Only the lucky wasp that was "born" with it in its inventory. You must fight for it!
So, in the end, time and luck matter. If you never roll the dice, you will never get the drop. If you roll the dice, the luck comes into play deciding weather you are Unlucky number 2 or 12 on that paper, or if you are the Very lucky number 5 or 6. But in the end, eventualy ALL the numbers get the drop they want. Some are just really, really bored till they do!

I have been farming this pet on an off for about a week and I haven't seen one yet. Today I made a commitment to just farm all day (going on 10 hours now) until I see one. One person comes and goes within a half hour which makes me think they had gotten it. So out of curiosity I go on the alliance AH to check and yup... the person who was there is selling one for 2000g.
I am now up to 2624 kills and haven't seen it. Luckily I am not in a guild and I plan to continue farming until I get one. As a holy priest I don't farm too fast so I've only done about 800 or 900 kills today.
So as many people have said... make sure you really really want this pet before you start the possibly epic journey. Oh yeah... and I hope you people who got it within your first 100 kills Diaf. :p

The Bogflare needlers will always drop either a Fractured Carapace or Twitching Leg. Keeping track of these is a good way to keep track of how many you have killed.

I really wish there were a way to PM people as to not bloat the item information. But this is a necessity at this point. Your math formula (though elegant) is not the reality of what is being discussed. Even with just the quote you extracted. He is providing himself a 19% drop rate simply from trying one more time. That is not the case. He is adding 10% twice and reducing it by 1% (no matter how it was mathed). Using his assumption would make the equation more along the lines of 1/20 = 0.05%. So his second statement would be correct:
If your overall chances didn't improve the more you killed, then for every failure you have, it means you'd be even less likely to get it on the next kill, until you reach a point where it's effectively impossible.
However, that is not the case either.
0.05% is not 19%. So the reality of what you are experiencing from the multiple tries remains the same. That is: You have 10% chance on
each
event. There is no reduction of chance. There is no addition of chance. It simply remains the same through out the course of events. 10% chance each event.
That is why you will see (if you note the remarks to various items) the differences in comments to drop rate from the multitude of wowhead users. Some claim quest items never drop after HOURS of farming. While others state they received it on thier first or second tries. For instance the quest
Are We There, Yeti?
for the item
Pristine Yeti Horn
. I killed 70 yetis at my first drop, then recieved the 2nd on my 74th kill. Though my own personal drop rate (1.4% first drop) is rather low. If you see other comments; some received the item on there 1st and fourth kill (making their first drop 100% and at worst there 2nd 25%) < we know that is not the case.
I make note in some comments. That anyone that has ever been a Dungeon Master for Advance Dungeons & Dragons would understand how the percentages work in monsters and loot. WoW is no different in that area. Killing any type of monster over and over again will not change the actual percentage for the item to drop. The item will retain the same probability through out your attemps. You are just giving yourself another try at that percent base. Believe me. Farming 10% items does not mean ONE of TEN will give you the item. Or Ten out of ONE HUNDRED. ( How ever you would like to look at the "math". ) It simply DOES NOT work that way. Each event is singular, and does NOT affect the prior or later event.

I just wanted to add something in regards to drop rates and farming for this particular pet.
I am a 70 Rogue and was leveling fishing in Zangarmarsh. I aggroed one of these Bogflare Needlers. I killed it. The pet dropped. It was the fist one I killed since I was level 63.
In my opinion, I would kill a couple when you are in the area. I don't believe that grinding for hours will get it to you any faster, you should have plenty of other things to do than grind for the rarest of pets.
Good luck if you decide to go for it, you are going to need it.

according to a blue post. (cant find it). loot is pre-picked when a mob spawns, so you could farm for your life or get on your first kill like every one is saying.
the only exception is quest loot,

Based on these comments I thought it would take >100 kills to get a drop, but mine came after only 80. I'm definately gonna keep him, though there is one on our AH right now for 1250g its very tempting to sell ... I might have to farm for another.

This was actually the first rare pet i ever farmed for in my WoW play time. When I was level ~50 i saw someone with a firefly in org and thoguht to myself, i MUST have one! So i got on my brother's 70 and proceeded to kill ~100 bogflare guys. Got tired. Gave up. leveled up my main a few more times then went back to zangarmarsh on brother's toon again. killed another 100. dropped. sent to main.
I had tried to get one for a friend's birthday a few months ago when i finally dinged 70, buuuuuut... i spent all day killing needlers with no drop. So his birthday passed and i gave up >< I bought him a dark whelpling instead. only 40g!

Quite literally the rarest farmable drop pet in the game. It has a 1 in 1500 drop rate as compared to all of the whelplings who have a 1/1000 drop rate. My information comes from

I was lucky enough to see this drop within about 20-30 kills. I set out prepared to farm for hours, just lucky I suppose. I only had 8 Unidentified Plant Parts in my inventory at the time. Kept it, didn't sell. Goes for about 500-1000g on my server (well that's what they're up for on the AH anyway, whether or not they sell is a different question).

I farmed for this pet around week, killed 791 bogflare needlers before it drops. (maybe little more +150 more i think thats before i installed mobinfo addon).
Then I killed 14more and second drops! I sold it at AH for 800g
Now I have around 1800+ kills farming for another one but unfortunately didnt drop yet.

I nearly gave up on finding this item, after spending hours with numerous alts grinding the area the needlers spawn. The other day one aggroes on me as I was extracting a swamp gas and I kill it and this drops.
I love pets and don't think I can part with this, only problem is do I save it for Death Knight or just try my luck at finding one again for another alt.
edit: not about the Firefly but about comment ratings. I've come to find that most of the comments saying that they've found something (whether it be this pet or other "rare" ones) are marked negatively. Even the ones that wish people luck in finding them are. I'd hate to think people are that upset over someone having it that's not them. :|

I farmed it ... 1600+ kills to get it few months back and makes a buzzing sound when it is out. Nice because it wakes me up when i get it out during raids
I have many many other pets but this one is the coolest one and most importantly not everyone has it :))))
What is the point to run around with a cool pet that many many people have: "He sees it, likes it and tomorow he has it :(
And when they ask hey where you got that little felow and you tell them where and how much mobs they need to kill to get one ... then they hate you for that :P
After all there are not that many things in TBC that can still make you feel different when everyone is running in full T4/5/6 and looks the same :)

This finally dropped for me two days ago.
After one year of farming.
This will make those of you who had to kill over three thousand feel much better about the time it took. Those of you who found it by chance on the first or second kills will feel even luckier. For those of you still farming for this vanity pet remember that for every bug you kill, the next may hold your pet.
32,202 Bogflare Needlers. That is account-wide from the first kill until the last kill.
3,000g in vendorable grey items.
2,345 Unidentified Plant Parts
300+ greens
1 blue BoE
And that does not include the help from friends who farmed on their own from time to time in an effort to surprise me. Yes I could have purchased this item from the AH, however I wanted to prove that it was in fact possible for me to aquire an in-game pet through farming (3 years of farming the crimson whelp and am still whelpless). I felt a great deal of satisfaction when I finally saw it come up as looted.
So those of you who are ready to give up and call it quits, remember that it could always be much worse, and that through mathematics or sheer dumb luck it will eventually drop.

drop chance on average is 0.4% which probably makes it the rarest "drop" pet in the game.

I stumbled across my Firefly pet about 15 mins after I started trying for it. Keep in mind that I was extremely lucky and some people spend a looooong time trying to get this pet.
Luckily, as mentioned, the Needlers respawn very quickly, and they are close enough to eachother to gather up and kill in groups.
They are most plentiful along the northwestern and northern part of the lake. I got mine along the North strech, as did another person in my guild... maybe it's a lucky spot...? ;) Good luck!

I have never before farmed for a pet and I just decided to do this when I was in Zangarmarsh.
I read here about the guy farming for it for 1 year and I knew I wasn't going to loot it.
But oh my god, I almost got a heart attack when I saw the little cage in the loot window..
I killed maybe 40-50 of the mobs and I got it!
I guess it's all about luck.
I'm going to end it like everyone else:

For anyone still trying to get this little bug, the thing that keeps me going is if your going for the 50 pet achievement, just remember to pick up glowcaps while your running around, that way once you find the firefly, then you can have enough glowcaps to buy the Sporebat!

There is a quest in the area for diaphanous wings, so you will have a couple 62-64s every now and then annoying you by killing a few of the mobs. After vendoring two 20-slot bags plus the backpack full of carapaces three times, I got my firefly! Took approximately 4 hours.
As with all farming, don't give up, don't question yourself and don't succumb to useless ganking, it will not improve your odds.

A few thoughts and tips I'd like to share based on my experience farming this pet:
-As you go through the farming area, and as you enter/leave it, kill all the Greater Sporebats, Sporebats, Marsh Walkers, and Fen Striders you see. They drop Fertile Spores, which can be turned in for Sporeggar rep (most people call this the inefficient method for getting Sporeggar rep, but hey, if you're killing fireflies anyway, you might as well right?). I got a fair way into honored by the time I got my Firefly this way. (I assume that if you're going for the Firefly, you'll also want the little Sporebat pet as well.)
-As you kill the sporebats, get up close to them when they die, so you get their buff. As a hunter, I experimented with how close I could cut it in terms of running up for the buff, and it seems you need to be within melee range when they take their fatal blow.
-When you start farming, choose either Twitching Legs or Fractured Carapaces to keep in your bags to keep track of how many Needlers you've killed. I recommend the carapaces, as they have an 81% drop rate, so you can figure for every 500 you have, you've killed around 600 Needlers. I sold the stacks when I got an even 100, 200, 300, etc. and then wrote down how many I'd sold. By the time I finished, I had sold 1,500, meaning I had killed approximately 1800.
-If you're going to keep the Fractured Carapaces, be sure not to auto-loot anything else that might drop them, so that you don't mess up your count. Sporebats are OK to auto-loot, but the Fen Striders and Marsh Walkers can drop carapaces, so just be careful.
-Keep Unidentified Plant Parts and Strange Spores that you get, as they can be used for Cenarion Expedition rep and Cooking respectively. The plant parts are easy to store as they stack in 200s in your bags (waiting for when they were going to stop stacking was kind of a fun little thing, so I'm sorry that I just ruined it for you).
-This is a very popular farm for people, especially now that Death Knights can start the farm shortly after starting their characters, so expect to have plenty of competition. Obviously, if you can log on during odd times, get as much farming done as you can handle while you have the place to yourself. The experience offers a nice balance actually of alone-time and competitive farming, which is kind of nice in terms of relative boredom and stress levels.
I hope someone finds this information helpful! Good luck farming!

To be honest, I personally dislike such type of comments but.... I've got it today with my 34th kill :D Took me about 10 minutes before it dropped. Funny thing that right before a kill another farmer asked me if I just came because he has been there all day long. We wished a good luck to each other... And then I got it on the next drop.:D
So, happy farming to everyone who reads it, just always keep in mind that dumb luck really exists... And if I could I would swap this minipet's stroke of luck with something's else >.>

I just wrote a script to count the amount of needlers you've killed in one outing. This only works if you keep the carapaces and legs in your bags.
/script local count = GetItemCount(25434)
local count2 = GetItemCount(25436)
print("Needlers Killed: " .. (count + count2))

Caught on kill 657. About 6 hours of farming, more or less, with collecting Glowcaps along the way. I also pushed my exp bar up from 69 1/2 to just over 70.
Collected 20 greens and 2 blues during the farm, and around 60g of saleable junk (including the carapaces and legs).
Good Luck to all collectors.

It seems as if they ALWAYS drop either a fractured carapace or a twitching leg, but never at the same time, so if u combine them together thats how many kills you have. (as long as you don't kill anything else that drops the carapaces or legs). Please correct me if im wrong.

Just bagged one after 408 kills over two evenings which, thanks to music breaking up the monotony, went by in a flash.
Farming this on an Unholy DK was a breeze: zero downtime, fast kills and re-spawns and since I was between lvl. 62 and 64 at the time, some nice XP as well.
I only wish it still had the "Still flying" quote, there really is no reason not to have it included in the "spell" tooltip for the pet.
Now to grind Sporregar rep for the
Tiny Sporebat
. >< If only I could use the 150+
Glowcaps
I collected for rep after Friendly. :(

For the pure fact that this is a reference to the greatest show ever created.
.. I shall have this pet...
:D Can't stop the signal!

And the firefly was mine (1hr 17min :D i got so lucky).
Just to warn you, this i found was a very happy place for bots to farm. Tricking them is always fun...
Best of luck to whoever wants one of these!

WOOT got my SECOND fire fly today ( 1 on my main toon and 1 on my alt ) the first was gotten on my alt by accident. I was questing in Zangarmarsh. ( I was completely SHOCKED ) Then today I decided to start farming the firefly for my main toon.... I was expecting this to take several hours if not a few days maybe even weeks. Landed by the first needler in my sights.... and of course there is my pride and joy my Firefly drops on my first kill! Not many people can say thats ever happened let alone twice!

I didn't know this pet even existed. I randomly killed 2 of these Needlers and it dropped - I had thought it was just a quest-based item that would give me a new quest. Turns out it was a pet! My brother is a pet fiend so I gave it to him for a pittance.
I hope all of your luck is as good as mine.

Started farming this a few days ago, about 10 kills in I looted my first one... then accidentally bound it to myself when trying to move it in my bag to avoid that very thing! >.o;
A very cute pet, though.. well worth the effort.
Looted a second one today on about my 157th kill-- going right up on the AH. :)

I have been wanting this for such a long time. I farmed it when I was still 70.. but no luck. I have seen this on the AH many times for around 1k gold each time... but I didn't buy it. My buddy wanted to get Sporeggar rep, so I figured I would help get him fertile spores and I would loop up north every so often to kill the Needlers. Well this pet dropped for me pretty quick. I didn't think it would drop, but I am so glad it did! I am definitely keeping it for myself :)

I was able to farm a total of three of these at approximately 100 kills each on my mage, I think it was from about June to November 2007. The first one was while questing and I decided to see if it would sell. It sold for over 600g within minutes of listing it, and the buyer asked if I had any more. This prompted me to farm the second a couple weeks later, and the third near Thanksgiving. All three sold for over 600g on the AH. I haven't been able to get another to drop for me on any of my characters on any of my accounts in many hundreds of kills since.
I wish the achievement statistics tracker would show how many times you've killed something that drops each of these specialized items.

Went farming for this for the first time in since Wrath launched. Had lots of unsuccessful attempts before. Killed probably 450 or so before getting a drop. 20 of the Carapaces sells for 1.75 gold, times about 20 or so. The legs sell for 1.9g a stack, and had two or three of them. Also got 15 or so greens, a lot of spores, a ton of sellable grays, 44 plant parts, two lockboxes and I collected while I went, netting me another 20 or so gold at auction. Probably made total 200g. Not incredible now-a-days, but the pet sells for about 1500 on my server. But this one, I chose to keep.

So after reading all the comments, i went to farm this pet. Surprisingly the firefly dropped after the 12th kill. I couldnt believe it, literally almost fell from my chair LOL! On my server it looks like this pet sells for about 2500-3000g, but its just so cool, i think id rather keep it..
So anyone who goes to try for this pet, just stay vigilant, it could drop on the 1st kill or the 20,000th. Seems pretty random, but totally worth it. :)

I went there to farm it, and yay, even in that place there was an ally lv. 67 hunter gold farmer! Seriously, c'mon! Every mini-pet I go to farm I find one of those farmers lurking around.
Btw, I'm in Daggerspine-EU.
Anyone remember Chronicles of the Gold Farmer? well.. I couldn't kill him because he was in my same faction, but I did kill every single mob before he could attack them.
I'll return there to continue the farm.

I've had 2 of these drop in the last day or so. Not sure if they raised the probability of these dropping? Anyway, I didn't know it was worth this much and learned 1 on my character, otherwise i would have sold them both.

I got this pet this morning. I've wanted it for a long while but didn't want to farm it for hours and hours. Whenever I went to shattrath for anything- to help a guild mate, etc~ I'd fly to Zangamarsh and kill all the bogflare needlers- i've been doing this for a few weeks and today it dropped- 57 kills total.
I've been farming for disgusting oozeling forever and got very fed up with it - so this is my new way of farming- just killing what I see when I am around.

I totally forgot about these guys until I saw one on the AH. I went out to Zangarmarsh to try my luck at them. After about half an hour, one dropped. I used to farm the crap out of these during BC & never got anything. Needler-less (ha) to say, I was ecstatic. I though, "Hmm, I'll queue for a dungeon & kill more of these." So I queued up & went back to killing. As soon as the "enter dungeon" screen popped up, I knew I had 30 seconds to kill as much as I could. Luckily there were 3 pretty close. I killed the last one with 5 seconds left & he dropped one more for me.
Just as proof, here's my SS:

I looted this pet while doing quests in zangarmarsh never knowing of its existence or value, i immediantly "learned" the pet thinking it was a common drop. I was then amazed when i found various posts about its rarity and now regret learning it as i could have made 4k gold by my realms auction house on it.
Well i guess i'll have to show it off more often now that i know what its worth.
Good luck to all you farmers.

Alright, I'm really loving this companion now. I've got one on my main, which I got after about 300 kills. That would be a fair afternoon of running back and forward. I was pretty satisfied, no doubt!
So now 1 year later, having unfrozen my WoW account and leveling my rogue further, I decided to give it shot while I was questing there anyway. Within 50 (!) kills it dropped. So that was insane luck, for the second time! But it gets more fun. That being 3 days ago.. My rogue being 10 levels higher.. I went to have another go at it, just to test my luck.
Kill #281.. Another drop! I guess I could make a living out of this. Obviously this one is going on the action house. Though I'd need one on this rogue later on too. Guess I'll be back soon enough!
Anyway, my advice: Don't get demotivated by reading the approx. 2.000 kills that the drop requires, as the drop rate and respawn rate will always be an estimate - a 'chance' that it will drop will always be there, also on your first kill(s). To put it simple: Who says someone before you hasn't just killed the other 1.999 and perhaps decided to give up ;-)

By far the easiest pet Ive obtained! I didnt even have to do anything to get it.. It only cost me all my gold as well as everything in my inventory and bank! Who says all hackers are scum? Not only did I get this pet but also a over 200G worth of random bug parts and unidentified plants.. w00t! :/ Blizzard let me keep it after restoring all my shtuff which was cool.. With the AH prices through the roof on this, 14K for the one's ive seen listed, I kinda want to try and get another..

If anyone else is interested, the path to this pets flying sound is:
Sound\\Creature\\SilithidWasp\\SilithidWingLoop2.wav
Replacing this sound file will mute this pets flight noise. This particular sound is also used for all wasp creatures so muting this will also mute others.
To replace them make a folder called Sound in your World of Warcraft > Data folder and create the same tree path as shown above then place a blank .wav and .ogg file with the same name in the last folder that was created.
Replacing sound files is legal

another couple of notes:
--the strange spores can be used to cook sporeling snacks - a hunter pet treat - so they auction well on my server.
--the glowcap mushrooms can be used to purchase recipes from M ycah the sporeguard quartermaster (clam bar and sporeling snacks). These recipes sell for anywhere from 25-55 gold on my server, so you can make a pretty penny by picking up glowcaps as you farm. *Note also pick up recipes from Doba -- but he will only talk to you after you do the first 3 quests that get you to friendly with the kurenai. These recipes sell for 45g on my server
--I farm mine with a level appropriate toon, that is always on rested bonus. This way I level my toon with double xp while I farm. Just park the toon at the inn and switch to another toon when her rested bonus is used up. I level each low 60 toon farming.
*edited to correct recipe vendor info

Bought mine for 5500 gold off the AH. I read the various comments here first, and then decided that I wasn't in the mood to kill thousands of bog lashes. IMO, its more affective to spend one's time making the gold and then buying it off of the AH. But to those who are willing to grind for this awesome pet the hard way, I have nothing but respect!

I just got one today from only one hour of trying. Made me pretty happy obviously.
Only one other selling at the AH on my server for like 9k. (would have kept it if it wasn't that high)
Lucky too since I was about to stop but i noticed my poison on my daggers had 5 minuets left so i thought I'd at least run that out and got it at the 3 minute timer.
So that's a lesson, never quit too soon. Sometimes a little extra time can be the difference.

I don't see this posted elsewhere, and wanted to give everyone a heads up - there's a quest now where you can get a pet that looks very similar to this one (different coloring, however) - so if the RNG gods hate you, there's always that option. (I believe this quest is out in burning steppes, and is part of a long chain.)

190 Fractured Carapace
37 Twitching Leg
62 Unidentified Plant Parts
8 Green Items
0 Pet
I will go back another time and then repost any results--I am not sure at what point I would give up n buy from AH, because I am cheap n do not want to pay the high prices. This is why it took me 4 1/2 months to dig up the vial of sands recipe on my alchemy--could have just bought mount.

Well I decided to go a different route instead of farming it I decided to buy it on impulse from trade chat for 5K which is a decent price considering this is a pretty rare pet. In order to do this I had to purchase World of Warcraft and make a toon and level profession, in my case it was Alchemy and Herbalism. At first I was clueless but by wrath I had made an alt and leveled Tailoring and Enchanting. Next, another toon and another Alchemist. Enchanting did really well so I made another toon and leveled JC just before cata. Then cata hit and I made more gold than I could imagine.
After you do all that, then you can just watch the AH and buy stuff that is a good deal like pets or whatever. I did not farm for cata, just leveled and bought and sold. So now with my fat toons and plenty of gold I can just buy what I want and keep what I want. This Firefly is # 123 for me. I'll pay 5k for any pet that rare. Glad I was watching trade chat today.

I highly suggest checking the spawn areas for the Bogflare Needler if you see a sudden increase in Captured Firefly pets on the auction house. There were at least two bots running on my server when I went to look, and there are likely many more as I have seen the pets in large numbers on both Alliance and Horde. These pets will be in extremely high demand in the next expansion, and it's not fair to have people cheat to get them!

I am a pet collector in game. About a week ago, after some guild drama, i decided that i would go farm the Crimson whelpling. After a few days, and about 8000 kills later i got him. Happy day! Then, still guild drama, i was like..."Hmm maybe i will try to go get the Emerald whelp." 686 kills later he is mine.
Unfortunately, there is still much guild drama going on. Well, guess i will go farm the Captured Firefly.
I used the standard farming circle, killing all of these that spawn all the way around the lake. They are pretty close together and at level 85 are one shots. However, as a 85 you will kill all of them and be ready to start your next circle before all have had a chance to respawn. Sooo, after about 600 kills, i started coming to wowhead to read anything i could find in between waiting for full respawns. I just got my little booger after 658 kills.
As with any farming, patience and determination are key. Happy hunting. :)

Sold one I got from a LFD satchel for 4.5k... considering it went in 10 minutes, I think I definitely put it up too low. Now that I'm farming them for a friend (who didn't tell me before I sold mine that she needed it), I can see why 4.5k was too low. (This is on Proudmoore-US, YMMV)
305 kills in, 5 greens, 75 plant parts (about 25% drop rate), tons of vendor trash. Hopefully it won't take much longer.

This was the worst grind of my life. I leveled all the way from 61-70 just killing those Bogfire Needlers... Overall I killed 6,253 before that little jerk dropped. I'd like to second what has been said before. Be sure to kill the sporebats and collect the Fertile Spores, so you can get exalted with Sporregar and get the Tiny Sporebat pet while you're at it. Also collect the Unidentified Plant Parts for Cenarion Expedition rep and stop to grab the Glowcaps (you will need them for currency with Sporregar if you plan on buying the Sporebat pet or the tabard) This grind took me over a month, and I can't tell you how many hours. I got exalted with Sporregar way before I got the Captured Firefly to drop! After a while it was just a matter of stubbornness and I couldn't give up because I'd already put in so much time. After it all, the Tiny Flamefly you get from the quests in Burning Steppes is actually way cooler. Good luck to those farming, and be prepared for the long haul!

Hello guys I decided to farm this pet , and after reading some of the posts here wich were helpfull indeed i thought i would add a few words. Eonar Server EU.
I started a couple of days ago no hardcore farming just walking through the spawn area and i did that for 2 hours , got 7 greens and a lot of greys, and i would say i did kill like 300 on that try, next morning rather early i continued and killed 20 more and it dropped, i did see its best to run a full run in the area where they spawn, then fly midways kill 2 more near the bridge right after the Naga area between 2 glowing flowers , rather big u cant miss them ,near a small pool, that gives u little more time to be sure of full respwan when u return to the spawn area.
Drop rate is as what most farmers have mentioned so good luck farming and go get ur Firefly.

My wife had been farming this pet several months ago, just after the cataclysm. But gave up. Today she decided that she is going to go and give it a stab again. After 7, count them, 7 kills, she loots it. I was like "OMG, really? Takes me three days to farm something with the same drop rate and you go there and get it with only 7 kills?" RNG usually does not work in her favor though, so it is just the luck of the draw I guess.

Wow. I was fishing the pools in ZM to level cooking, and i knew these dropped the captured firefly. i casually killed 5 or 6, just to be a dumbass. i &*!@ myself when i looted it on the sixth kill.
Funny thing is, i got my emerald whelping earlier that day after killing 2.6k noxious whelps over the course of 3 days. moral of the story is that probability might not be in your favor today, but it might be tomorrow.

This macro makes it a ton easier to farm these little buggers:
/tar Bogflare Needler
/cast Fel Flame
Be sure to replace "Fel Flame" with whatever instant cast skill you have. Decided to start using the macro when I went out and there was a bot there, it allowed me to find the Needlers faster than the bots.
Also be sure to pick up any
亮顶蘑菇
that you see. They are currency for
孢子村
and were selling on my server for 6g per. At least when you aren't getting the stupid pet to drop you know you are making a little bit of gold ^_^

After 3 days and over 500 kills still no drop.
so far:
6 greens
1 blue off a rare beast
10 gray weapons / armor
over 100 plant parts
LOTS of carapace and legs which sell about a gold per stack of 20.
Now I know why these are so expensive...
I'll keep y'all informed of the outcome.

This is a new 2.1.0 item drop from a mob. From what I've discovered, this item drops on the Bogflare Needler spawns in Zangarmarsh. I believe it's drop rate is similar to those of the whelplings. I've never run into this mob, but a friend showed a friend showed me, so yeah. Both of my friends got the drop from these mobs and fairly early on, too, and one gave me theirs. That is all.

Saw one in Org, thought it was the cutest thing, and decided to go farm one. Took about 100 kills and one dropped. Then I saw the 450g AH price quoted on Alla and now I am torn between keeping it for me, and selling it for a good boost to my epic flying skill price. I guess I will keep working fishing and farming these flies and see if I can get another! :)

I had farmed a TON of these on my shaman while i was leveling her up and it never dropped... i was just flying over a needler on my druid on my way to pick up a cooking recipe and i decided why not kill it? and it dropped! druids have better farming luck than shamans - its official =D

Saw someone asking about this in the trade channel and came here to see what they were talking about. Sounded cool so just for fun I thought I would try and farm me one when I had some time to kill. Got it in 5 minutes. Not sure if it's really not that rare or if I was just lucky.

This things drop rate is much worse than any of the whelplings, i have over 54 non-combat pets, and this is by far the worst, took me 4763 kills to get mine, farming at least 4 hours a day for over 6 weeks.
I have farmed several of almost every other pet that is farmable in this game and the worst average i have seen is the emerald whelplings. Even with them I average one in about 1200 kills.
My second dropped in a little over 3000 more kills after getting my first while farming for Unidentified plant parts for the guild bank. Sold it for 600g in less than 2 hours on Medivh-Horde.
There will always be people that get it on the first kill, and there will also be people that wont ever get it to drop. That is the nature of percentile math and the reason why casinos make money. anyone that gets this in less than 12 hours of farming for these is lucky.

Does this drop rate only include kills from when the item was introduced? If not, I think the drop rate would be higher then it shows. BTW, I have 2 in 168 kills.

WOW, you guys weren't kidding!
Took me about 12-14 hours of grinding those stupid Needlers to get mine!
If it wasn't for the nice green drops (and occasional blue drop) to keep me going, I would have just given up after the first 6 hours!
But I'll be a happy Mage if I never see another in Outland again!
P.S. Of course I kept it! The time it takes to get it, it's just not worth it to sell it, even for 1000g! I can get that doing my daily quests in less time! :p

Finally got mine today. I don't know precisely how many of the needlers I killed but it was at the least 1000 of them, quite possibly more.
Day 1, Afternoon: 2 hours straight alone.
Day 1, Late Night: 4 hours in competition with an ally mage, we killed each other back and forth.
Day 2, Afternoon: Was constantly camped by same ally mage for 3 hours; got in a few kills.
Day 2, Evening: 5 hours straight alone.
Day 3, Afernoon: Killed around 30 needlers and it dropped.
Yes, this item has perhaps one of the worst drop rates of any item in WoW history. He's a pretty cool pet, and if you desperatly need gold and don't mind possible 10 hour+ grind, I've heard of people selling them on other servers for 700-900g. All you people who bought it for 100g or less are either really lucky or the person who originally farmed it had no idea what he had.

It's not from a quest - this pet is a drop from the
Bogflare Needlers
in northern Zangarmarsh. It was added in the 2.1 Patch. The pet looks just like the Bogflare Needlers themselves, only smaller.
Here
is a picture of me and my Captured Firefly. It took me 168 kills to get it.
The pet's name and the flavour text reference the series "Firefly" by Joss Wheadon.

Be warned before you set out to do this, that the little firefly has a wing sound effect, so if noisy wings bothers you. You may want to think twice before commiting to farming this pet. ^_^

This pet has a near epic drop rate percentage. Don't get too excited when you see folks post about getting it first kill, or first five hundred kills. It could take two thousand to .. anywhere up to ten thousand depending purely on chance. Just keep at it if you're desperate for the pet. It's not a viable way to farm gold, per se. 1,000 gold could be farmed in a day or two mining, rather than a week farming this item.

I have never posted on these msg boards but farming for this thing is making me do so. I wnat this pet for my main and my alt was 1 bar into 68, like 25k/750k to level. farmed it to 750k/750k, killing thousands of those, no drop. now im 1/2 into 69 and still no drop. well over 1 million experience farmed , about 6 boe blues, at least 100 greens, plant parts x 500+, and no dam bee. you ppl are so f'ing lucky who got it under 100 kills. ok back to the bees...

found a link to this page from another comment on thott and thought i'd have a shot at farming one. killed 97 making the circle around cfr a few times picking up glowcaps on the way, it dropped unexpectedly just when i was getting bored.
the fluttering buzz sound does get quite annoying after a while, i'm standing in shattrath feeling like i'm in un'goro. it's comparable to the sound of a paper streamer tied to an electric fan, but in my opinion preferable to a whelp's flapping wing noise.

To summarize:
This drop is REALLY hard to get.
If someone comes on here and complains he must have killed 30 or 40 of these guys and still hasn't dropped, they need to be removed from society permanently.

This pet was MUCH easier to get than that damn Blue Whelpling (Azure Whelpling?). Maybe I just got lucky but I got it after about 4 hours or so of off and on grinding. It took me a few days of grinding to get my Blue Whelp. This is a cool little pet and worth the time to get. This one and the Tiny Spore Bat are head turners. I also got a fair amount of money and a couple of nice greens to sell. Good luck :)

i dont know exactly how many kills it took me to get it, as i had prolly killed about 30-40 of these mobs before i decided to install the MobInfo addon. i killed 346 bogflare needlers after i installed MobInfo so i guess i killed some 380 needlers for this to fall
location of the needler that dropped the firefly x:46.08 y:35.63. thottbot map is accurate on mob placement.also this dropped after patch 2.3.2, so answer is no, they did not remove this pet with patch 2.3
still photos do not really show how cute this pet is... u gotto see it live.....

It was a hard 113, because one of those chinese account levelers/rare item farmers was running that belt 24/7 (litterally - I tried coming back at different times of the day to grind the place alone, and he was ALWAYS on, and NEVER responded to emotes, whispers, yells, etc), but, it was worth it.

So I never told myself I was going to try to get the Captured Firefly.... I just got done reading about it to see what actually dropped it. Well so Im running to do a quest and I see the bee that drops it. Remember I told myself I would not waste time killing them to get it. Well I said to the heck with it at least ill get exp. Well my first kill it dropped one... And to top it off I got a Shadow Pearl 30 min before that.... So I believe in all of you. You can get it...

extremely rare pets are what i would call status sybols, but if you have bought it from the auction house. not so much. a pet collector has pets not for utility, but for accessory. therefore when i get people msging me saying im a moron for wasting all my time farming i merely laugh.
bottom line: people who are too ignorant to understand the thoughts of pet collectors dont deserve your attention, anyone who farms for hours on end to get something that they so much want shouldn't be put down for it.
so congrats if u get this because it requires ALOT of time and effort unless ur plain lucky.

I'm interested in purchasing one of these cute lil guys, but I don't know how long I can put up with the "buzzy" sound. So if anyone with a firefly pet would care to experiment with the sound options (turn emotes off, sounds in background, ect.) to find out what category the sounds falls under that would be great!
Obviously post the results here :D
THANKS!

FINALLY! I got it! I have about 49 hours of grinding in for this and about 3200 kills on Area 52 server. I got it after 7 hours that day with 500 kills in for the day. There was another horde grinding there also and two alliance had just dropped in. I had told myself and the other horde player I was giving up when I leveled to 68 (I was three kills from leveling) and had wished him luck. The next kill it dropped! This pet is pure luck!
Good luck to everyone who really really wants it! Persistance pays off! He's so cute! =)
I got mine off the middle needler in the mid-island area at 45.35. =)
-----------------------------------
Went back last week and looted another one of these for a friend of mine who had recently transferred servers to join me. (As a thank you gift.) This time it took me 9 hours and around 800 kills.
NOW, the interesting thing I noticed was --- Marticar (the elite marsh walker) spawned in the area right before I looted this. ALSO the time previously above with my first loot, on the day that I finally looted that firefly, Marticar was in the area. (He had not been in the area on the other four days I had grinded.) Hmmmm.

Thursday, 20 March 2008. Walking around, killing things for exp. I was a level 66 lock with a VW. Killed one of those stingers because he was in my way. Almost didn't check the drop. Something made me check, there was the Captured Firefly. Plan to sell it on the Mok'Nathal AH on Saturday, 22 March 2008, 500g buyout 1000g. Thottbot suggests 607g 57s is a decent price. It's decent enough for me. I've always had luck with their prices. A few months ago, found a nice trinket. Thottbot suggested 200g. Put on AH, 3 hours later, 200g. Works for me. Will return and provide final price for your info. Wish me luck.
Regards,
666

I was doing some mining in the area and flew by these guys. Decided to kill a few just to see if I got lucky. About 20 kills later it dropped. Couldn't believe my luck.
Think I'll keep him :-)

I've farmed this pet a few times for friends as gifts so I know the difficulty in getting it. But the other day I was in the area about to go farm the schematic for the repair bot when I got asked to go to kara by a friend. My friends rogue needed gear so I logged out near the bugs, then to my friends account did kara, ect... Logged in later that night and a bug attacked me, killed it and got a firefly. Got a good laugh and sold it for 650g, Woo!

Approximately 800 kills and I got one of these. Am working on selling it now as well as trying to get another one for myself. I will edit with my sell price when I am able to sell it.

Best vanity pet ever. Particularly nice since the model is actually a wasp or yellowjacket, and I went to Georgia Tech. I just wish I could rename it "Buzz."
