Can drop Fel-Spotted Egg for a chance at:

Scintillating Mana Ray
Felglow Mana Ray
Vibrant Mana Ray
Darkspore Mana Ray
Docile Skyfin
Fel-Afflicted Skyfin
Aged Yolk

The world quest does NOT need to be up to get an egg.
Always subject to change at Blizzard's whim

Comment by thekaizi

These can drop the eggs even if the world quest isn't up as I just looted one from the other rare cat Varga

For players that, like me, plan to farm the mounts and other collectibles daily, I have compiled a set of macros with the tom-tom waypoints for rares that drop mounts. I used previous comments by others, especially Boxofbeer, as well as Wowhead maps to compile the coordinates.

/way Mac'aree 55.7 59.9 Wrangler Kravos
/way Antoran wastes 61.7 37.2 Blistermaw
/way Antoran wastes 63.1 25.2 Entrance: Houndmaster Kerrax
/way Antoran wastes 65.5 26.7 Puscilla
/way Mac'aree 49.7 9.9 Skreeg the Devourer
/way Mac'aree 33.7 47.5 Venomtail Skyfin

For the rares that drop eggs which may hatch into mounts, companions, or junk:

/way Antoran wastes 64.3 48.2 Varga
/way Krokuun 70.5 33.7 Naroua
/way Mac'aree 44.2 49.8 Sabuul

For rares that drop companion pets:

/way Antoran wastes 65.5 26.6 Mother Rosula Entrance
/way Antoran wastes 50.4 56.1 Urzul Bone
/way Antoran wastes 65.6 26.3 Imp Bone
/way Antoran wastes 52.4 35.3 Fiend Bone
/way Antoran wastes 54.7 39.1 ManyFaced Devourer
/way Mac'aree 30.3 40.4 Ataxon

For rares that drop toys:

/way Mac'aree 43.8 60.2 Crazed Baruut
/way Antoran Wastes 58.6 12 Doomcaster Suprax
/way Mac'aree 61.4 50.2 Instructor Tarahna (3 colors)
/way Antoran wastes 65 82.6 Rezira the Seer
/way Krokuun 52.8 31 Sister Subversia

/way Antoran wastes 77.4 74.9 Portal to Vishax
/way Antoran wastes 61.9 64.3 Wrath-Lord Yarez

Note that not all rares seem to spawn each day. If you discover something that is missing or incorrect, please let me know in the comments and I’ll fix it.

EDIT: After the release of Mac'aree, it seems that a couple changes were made. Puscilla also drops a mount (Biletooth Gnasher) and Kaara the Pale does NOT seem to drop the fel-spotted egg any longer. The macros have been updated to reflect these changes. Many thanks to the people who pointed these errors out to me!

The rares who drop these mounts only yield loot for you once per day. I have created a macro to track whether they have been killed by you during this reset:

/run for k,v in pairs({Sabuul=48712,Naroua=48667,Varga=48812,Venomtail=48705}) do print(format("%s: %s", k, C_QuestLog.IsQuestFlaggedCompleted(v) and "\124cFFFF0000Completed\124r" or "\124cFF00FF00Not Completed\124r")) end

The macro tracks the following rares (since they drop similar mounts):

Sabuul who drops Fel-Spotted Egg found in Eredath at 44.1 49.7
Naroua who drops Fel-Spotted Egg found in Krokuun at 70.4 33.7
Varga who drops Fel-Spotted Egg found in Antoran Wastes at 64.2 48.2
Venomtail Skyfin who drops Lambent Mana Ray found in Eredath at 33.6 47.5

Fel-Spotted Egg has a chance to yield any of the following mounts/pets after 5 days:
Scintillating Mana Ray
Felglow Mana Ray
Vibrant Mana Ray
Darkspore Mana Ray
Docile Skyfin
Fel-Afflicted Skyfin

Comment by Hykon

Does anyone know the last time this rare spawned on US servers? I've been checking periodically for the last 3 days without seeing it. Last one I need for the achievement.

Comment by wicke1991

Lovely how BM pets bug this one out. Literally can't dismiss the pets, Feign Death doesn't work either and the mob just evades until you're literally at the other side of the map.

Comment by paktu

All Rare Elite Spawns on Argus rotate on a ~4 hour window of opportunity. In that time it will respawn and will be lootable. However, when that window closes the rare spawn will despawn, including ones that are pulled already.

The exemption to this rule is when they are the World Quest target. If that is the case, then the rare spawn will respawn throughout the entire window the WQ is available.

There are rare spawns that drop a fel spotted egg, and rare spawns that drop mounts. There seems to be a limit to how many of these will be active at once. At the moment, it appears that there will never be any more than one fel spotted egg dropper and no more than one mount dropper up at any one time.

Fel Spotted Eggs, after the 5 day wait time, becomes a Cracked Fel Spotted Egg, which can either drop a mount, pet, or junk.
The mounts from the eggs are: Vibrant Mana Ray, Scintillating Mana Ray, Felglow Mana Ray, and Darkspore Mana Ray
The pets from the eggs are: Fel Afflicted Skyfin and the Docile Skyfin
Note: you are NOT guaranteed a mount or pet drop. It could still result in a useless item.

The rare elites that drop the eggs are:
Naroua - In north eastern Krokuun, from a path at Destiny Point
Sabuul - In Central Mac'Aree, directly north of the center-most teleport point.
Varga - In central Anrotan Wastes, under the spider area and accessible via a fel lava level cave

All of the Mount Dropping Bosses are
Skreeg The Devourer : who drops the Acid Belcher
Both Vrax'thul and Puscilla drop the Biletooth Gnasher
Blistermaw: who drops the Crimson Slavermaw
Venomtail Skfin: drops the Lambent Mana Ray
Wrangler Kravos: drops the Maddened Chaosrunner
Houndmaster Kerrax: drops the Vile Fiend

Anyone have any idea if Sabuul can be tamed in BFA? I would love it as a hunter pet. It's the only Argus panthara that's completely violet.

Comment by MichelleLisa

I finished farming the Darkspore Mana Ray, Scintillating Mana Ray, Vibrant Mana Ray, and Felglow Mana Ray mounts and Fel-Afflicted Skyfin and Docile Skyfin battle pets today. I am on US Frostmourne, Alliance, and I don't believe I ever had warmode on whilst farming Sabuul, Naroua and Varga for the eggs.

As you may know, the mounts and pets drop from the Cracked Fel-Spotted Eggs. A Fel-Spotted Egg will turn into a Cracked Fel-Spotted Egg after it has been sitting in your bag for a total of 5 days. The Fel-Spotted Eggs drop from Sabuul, Naroua and Varga on Argus.

Here's the co-ordinates for the rares:

Sabuul: /way Mac'aree 44.2 49.8 Sabuul
Naroua: /way Krokuun 70.5 33.7 Naroua
Varga: /way Antoran wastes 64.3 48.2 Varga

Many of the comments regarding the spawn timer for the rares talk about how all of the Argus rares are on a rotating 4-hour window of opportunity. During the 4 hours the rares will respawn and be lootable. It is notable; however, that you can only receive loot from the rares once a day. The rares will also occasionally be up as a World Quest (WQ). This just means that the rare is guaranteed to be up during the entire time the WQ is active, as opposed to its usual spawn time/s.

Here's a bit more information about my relatively short farming experience:
To my knowledge, no one is able to track exactly when the rares will be active in every realm. As previously mentioned, I'm on US Frostmourne, Alliance. I live in NSW, Australia. We are currently on Australian Eastern Daylight Time (AEDT, UTC+11hrs).

I have only been farming the eggs for about 2-3, give or take. I did not kill and loot the rares every single day.

It look me a total of 8 eggs to receive all of the mounts and pets, meaning I only got two of the Aged Yolk which is the only trash item that the eggs drop. I confirm that the eggs do not drop the same mount/pet twice. Therefore, it should not take you very long at all to obtain all of the mounts and pets. For the approximate drop % of each, please click on the above links. The longest part of the farming will be (a) figuring out what time the rares are active on your realm; and (b) getting the eggs to drop from the rares. Again, the drop rates are in the above links.

For me, the rares were up at the following time every day (with the exception of days where the rares were a WQ):

Sabuul: 1.56 pm
Naroua: 2.00 pm
Varga: 5.00 pm

I didn't do much experimenting with spawn times, I simply wrote down the time I killed each of them and logged on at that time each day to kill them again. Based on that fact, I believe they do have set spawn times for each realm. Whether they are different, I don't know. I assume they would be due to the different timezones (i.e. if you are in America and logged on at 2.00 pm your time, it may not be up due to the time difference. If you logged on at 2.00 pm my time you may find it up). Testing those theories would take far too much time for any one person.

To conclude:
If you're going to farm the rares for the eggs that contain the mounts and pets, the best possible method for you to follow would be to check the spawn points at various times until you find the rares up. Write down the exact times you kill each rare! Go back the next day at the same time. If they're up, then you know what time you need to log on each day. If not, perhaps my experience will not help you after all.

All-in-all, it is well worth farming these mounts and pets. It's a very easy farm, the drop rates are high and you will more than likely have received all of them after opening a maximum of 10 eggs. If not, again, it's very easy to just keep farming those eggs until you have all of the drops.

May the loot gods be with you.

I just tamed him/her and did not require the fresh talbuk meat

Comment by Shinma76

Can confirm that Sabuul spawns in Mac`Aree at 44, 49 and is now tameable. I was the location and was out of game reading these comments when my WoW icon started flashed red on my taskbar. I popped back in game and there he was, attacking me. I was able to tame him no problem.

Also note, as of 8.3, for someone that had not completed the questline to open the area out here, it took me roughly 1.5 - 2 hours tops.

Comment by Cuffouis

Fel-Spotted Egg turns into Cracked Fel-Spotted Egg after 5 days. Easier farmed on days with associated world quest.

Every time someone dies to the barely-visible bottomless pit between the City Center teleporter and Sabuul, an angel gets its wings.
