TheWoWDBIf you are like me and can't be hassled for long with this for the mount dailies, look no further.
After been trying with many tactics mentioned on [npc=162458] page, I just went with having 2 level 1 dragonkin pets with strong attack against magic, like tail sweep. Works like a charm, should be down before 2nd pet is down.Edit! At a glance, this should also be doable and better with any mechanical/elemental pets with dragonkin abilities in their first slot. [npc=64899] is an obvious contender.

Description
While fighting alongside you no doubt provides excellent training for our hatchling, sometimes it is better to have him fight on his own against enemies his own size. I know of one such opponent nearby, observing the Amathet near the Obelisk of the Stars. You should seek it out.
