Reference to Super Monkey Ball mirite?

Commento di Nandu

The spell is called "Going ape".

Commento di martinu

You're going Bananas!

Commento di Lysmask

One cool thing with this trinket is that it works with mirror image! 4 monkeys fighting is just awsome :D

Commento di 80236

Just got this today on my paladin. Checking the character sheet after using, I'm not seeing any white damage or AP changes (as hinted by the Going Ape buff)... Haven't really tested the damage itself, however! The effect will be removed if you take off the trinket or try to mount, but doing general combat tasks seem to be fine. The hour cooldown is pretty lame though :(.

Commento di Sannu

Can druids use this in forms?

Commento di Kibanu

One dropped off the air elementals in northeast Storm Peaks for me. I can't remember their names offhand but anyways... I got one. Will use the buff on next raid for fun. :)

Commento di Matti

The visual of this effect is removed when you mount up, but the buff isn't.

Commento di 166221

Was farming leather in Storm Peaks when it dropped for me off a Roaming Jormungar.

Commento di Vashi

If you have the Orb of Deception and this trinket, you can use the Super Simian Sphere first and use the Orb of Deception in the 2nd trinket slot, and you can be the opposing faction in an arcane bubble.

EDIT:Also if you have the World Enlarger that Gnomish Engineers can use, it works in combination with the Sphere and Orb, so use all three and jump on your Epic Flying mount for some sort of confusion to everyone else.

Commento di Alanray43

Seen two of these drop now and both times was in Heroic Utgarde Pinnacle. We were just before Svala Sorrowgrave when one dropped one day, then two days later in approximately the same spot they dropped from trash again..

But as others have stated it is a world drop so best of luck when you see it.

Commento di 107873

The most meaningless shared cooldown?

Commento di 78626

so all it does is turn you into a monkey inside a ball? thats it? the end?

Commento di 242837

If you use this plus the Orb of Sin'dorei from H, Magister's Terrace, you will become a blood elf in a bubble! Not overwhelmed? Well, the bubble is twice it's normal size!

Edit: Screenshot was accepted so now you can see for yourself.

The awesomeness of this trinket cannot be matched with words!

Commento di Iomanip

Dropped today in Heroic Violet Hold off Moragg.

Commento di lorgion

We had this drop in Naxx10 and our tank got it and proceeded to tank while in simian form. It looked quite amuzing.

RE: The modified AP aura, I asked a GM and he confirmed that the trinket had no purpose other than to be funny.

Also, if you're a warrior, use this trinket then pop last stand and both the ape and his bubble will turn bright red.

Commento di 304638

When transformed, you can also use some Baby Spice on yourself to become a mini Simian in a Sphere. :)

For those of you who read "Super Monkey Ball reference" but have no idea what type of Game Super Monkey Ball is Here is the Link to WIkipedia
Super Monley Ball

It is Available on Nintendo Gamecube.

I also have it on my Iphone for fun when im bored.

A very vivid and zany game.

Commento di evankimori

And now we ask the inevitable question:

What has science done?

Commento di Casterphile

Although i know this item is a reference to Monkey Ball, the first thing that comes to mind for me is the praying Draags in the movie Fantastic Planet.

If you have no idea what i'm talking about, check 1:55+ in this little clip here

Commento di 317578

When I saw this effect, the first thing that popped into my head was "Pink Bubbles Go Ape". An album released in 1991 by the German metal band Helloween.

Commento di EazymodeNep

This item just dropped for CTSamurai on Neptulon EU. As the item was being raidrolled for, our masterlooter was going "this person would never, ever say no.." That's when I knew I'd won. :D I'm extremely happy, I'm exactly the kind of silly person who enjoys these items. I look forward to experimenting with this baby! The cooldown is a bugger, but I'll live.

I have the item on cooldown right now, but when it comes off of it I shall try to use http://www.wowhead.com/?item=5462 (the furbolg rod) with it! Furbolg form + vanilla-WoW firewater + monkey ball = awesome, surely!

Commento di Smaragd

Note: The comment above was about to be downrated when this comment was written. Sure enough, the name is a clear reference to Super Monkey Ball.

However, the main bubble in Super Monkey Ball is not pink, and the choice of words around this trinket do not seem so random. The description states "Go wild in a bubble" and the effect uses the word ape instead of monkey or simian. The description could easily be read as "Go ape in a pink bubble," making the visual very likely to refer to the Helloween album, Pink Bubbles Go Ape, which is very popular amongst metal fans.

Some Blizzard artists are known to love rock and metal, thus making the reference even more likely to be true. Samwise, Metzen and (the remaining) Twincruiser all state similar bands as their favourite music.

Commento di VitaDoden

I think this also is a reference to an album released by the German Power metal band Helloween. The title of the Album is Pink bubbles go ape. While the other references listed above sounds equally likely I think that it fits a bit to well with the album title to be a coincidence

Commento di 322667

I got this item from the Hulking Horror on my first kill (Epic lol).

Commento di kimblehmoose

i just got this today, was laughing at it for about 15 mins, nonestop.
got it from a revenant in wintergrasp

Commento di 325140

Just got mine off a Ravenous Jormungar while doing Storm Peak dailies. Extremely rare trinket...only seen like two on my server

Pretty sweet ^.^

Commento di Basmothel

There is an odd bug with certain spell animations and the gorilla inside the bubble. For example, we have a shaman with this in the guild and when he casts Chain Heal while using this trinket, the spell effect fires from a few feet above the bubble, despite the monkey down below playing the casting animation.

Commento di 90549

since druid can go flight form and still apear as an ape in a ball... SUPER FLYING MONKEY BALL?

Commento di 336707

i have The super Simian ball, and when i was Running H- Cot Cos. i used it, To show off and as i was fighting i noticed a few times that i got like a Pet Damg. coming up. and along with a random ( Deflect ) Sign coming up so i have reason to belive that it Defelects Spells (Minor chance) and Adds Like a little pet damg. i am not sure about stats yet. it Also increases attack speed. i have tested it on Training dummys and all i did was normal attacking. i had a Meter that told me what my attack speed was and such. and when i was X-Formed. i attacked faster. i hope this could help people better understand what it does. (Contact me on wow: Name: Chewbaka Server: Mannoroth, im an 80 rogue.)

Commento di 336789

Two good places to farm for it are Onslaught Harbor, and packs of Converted Heroes at The Conflagration. Took me about 17k kills. Gl.

Commento di 247353

Heres a Link to the Ball In Action.

Commento di 303838

Why do people keep downranking when someone states that it could be a reference to Dragon Ball? I know when my guild saw it drop in Naxx, that's the first thing we thought of...

Commento di 306315

remember to keep ur trinket on for 5min when u are using it, or u transform back and have to wait for another hour =[

Commento di 187038

If you are a male tauren, use the usual items to grow like Gigantic Feast, Winterfall Firewater / Elixir of Giant Growth and spells Bloodlust and Grow from the Senjin NPC. And go to Org bank or get 40 tauren to raid Stormwind with these buffs. =)

I hope this help

Commento di 145273

This should answer any confusions about the context of the item and what it references, the Super Monkey Ball reference is for the bubble, the monkey is in reference to the Super Saiyan race from Dragon Ball Z but the German spelling for simian is Sai'an, similar to the way it is used in Dragon Ball, but they both mean the same thing in context.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saiyan#Great_Ape

Commento di Headache

Someone please try this with a shaman. Something like this : Pop the trinket, use some enlarging item on you, then bloodlust ^^ Haven't tried this myself but will try to as soon as I get my hands on one of the Spheres :P

Commento di Poremm

This trinket + Malygos Phase 2 = win

Commento di 339685

monkey bubble owns nax Ö

Commento di 95277

It dropped in naxx a couple days ago for our guild, and bidding got up to 2000g, but the roll winner wouldn't sell it! Looks sooo kool!

Commento di Brutusares

If you use this trinket, then Orb of Deception you get transferred in to your opposite faction + your bubble gets bigger. But the cool thing is. If you have an female character and you use this trinket. You turned into an (male?) ape. And if you then use Orb of Deception you transferred into male opposite faction. So basically you can become male and female with orb of deception + cool bubble. :)

Commento di 358540

You are able to joust with it in the new tourny =) i submitted a screenshot =)

Commento di 232784

Where do these things drop? World drop? Rare chance in a raid/dungeon?

Commento di jessika

This dropped for us tonight in H CoS... and I won the roll! It's a pretty fun trinket, and I haven't seen anyone on my server with it yet!

Commento di jennanoel

use it with an orb of deception, as a female BE i turn into a male draenei in a pink bubble!

Commento di RamRod10

I got this and was bummed at first that it was a BOP item. Then I actually used it and laughed my ass off. It would have been nice to be able to sell it, but the entertainment value itself it pretty high.

Commento di blackxhope

the Helloween album, Pink Bubbles Go Ape, which is very popular amongst metal fans.
agree with that :)

got the sphere to,pretty funny when you have to tank,and suddenly your tank turned into an ape
also works on flying mount and normal mount

Commento di LordMerlock

Equip this along with a Deputy Pa'trolla Badge and watch the universe collapse around you from the awesomeness.

Commento di jessika

World drop, therefore it doesn't really drop off of a specific mob.

Commento di 430009

I got one of these and immediately thought of the Monkeysphere!

Commento di fjell

got this trinket in halls of lighting today, I play a shadowpriest and its funny to fight in shadow ape form :D

Commento di 204430

I was oh so lucky enough to see one of these drops and even more lucky to win, by one point!
I love this item, I love flying on my magic carpet with the buff on he looks really good on it! =]
I heard someone tell me they weren't dropping anymore so I'm saying dropping as of today(8/21/09)

Commento di 445779

Dropped today on a bronze drake run in Stratholme. I lost the roll, but persuaded the winner to sell it to me...gotta love the new loot feature in 3.2.

Commento di 332243

Why is there so many weird things in WoW?
I'm just asking..
We got the Orb of Deception, Pink Gumballs, World Enlarger, Noggenfogger, Path of Illidan and Cenarius and many more stuff, which I'm too lazy to write.

I bet we will get the opportunity to get a mechanical imp as a mini-pet, in the future major content patches aswell.

Hey that would actually be cool!

Commento di 324197

Saw this drop a few days ago in a 5-man party. I think it was Utgarde Keep. Not that it matters because it's no doubt a world drop epic, though I'm surprised it isn't Bind on Equip. In any case, we all rolled Need and I landed my first 100 on when rolling "Need" so I got my "Needy" achievement in the process. Two for one special!

Kind of a worthless item, as suspected the "buff" is purely aesthetic and it does unfortunately require itself to be equipped in order to keep the visual change. You can fight with it in any way you'd like, but it'll fill one of your trinket slots. That said, it's pretty hilarious DPSing as a gorilla in a giant, shiny purple bubble.

Of interesting note, you can use this item after you win it and still trade it to other people in the party. Using the item does NOT perma-soulbind it to you (this is limited exclusively for those who were capable of rolling on the item when it dropped, as is the case with any BoP item after the recent patch)

The 1 hour cooldown is excessive, in my opinion.

Commento di Repaxan

Disenchanting (1)

The fact that this item has a Disenchanting tab makes me a sad orc :(

Commento di LunaMemory26

Somebody help me! Where can I get this trinket? I really want one! >.<
Please tell me if you know a way to get it! Pweaseeeee!! =3

Commento di 471567

Dropped for me yesterday at CoT while doing daily heroic.
I lost on 'need' roll. BUT i offered 8k gold to the owner and he accepted =)
It's nice to be rich
Now it's miiiiine

cya peace

Commento di darthnabours

I found out that by using this then savory deviate delight and getting on your mount then right clicking the deviate delight buff while still on your mount you can be a monkey on a mount

Commento di kellen

Removed by any type of zoning (mage portals, hearthing, and so on), mounting, and obviously by removing the trinket itself.

If you use any other appearance altering effect (Deviate Delight, Dire Brew, Nogg, etc etc) you will stop being a monkey, and become the pirate/dwarf/skeleton/whatever but still keep purple aura. Now, you too can be a sparkling pirate or a faaabulous dwarf.

Commento di Wowvocate

This + druid flight form = win

Commento di Cthulhu

It's well known that this trinket lets druids fly by popping flight form the the simian sphere.

However, there's another "flight form" anyone can use: Underbelly Elixir

Gather a few elixirs from around the sewers, wait until one turns you into a wasp, then pop your simian sphere to become a flying ape in a ball. Your flight is limited to the sewers and a few choice areas in Dalaran where "no-fly" is not active. Take a look on the underbelly elixir article for my post on where you can fly, and do it with your simian sphere active.

One other thing: The gorilla model doesn't have a location on its model for quite a few channeled beam spells to originate from, and instead they originate from a bit above its head, outside the purple bubble. I can confirm this works for all the warlock channeled spells, drain life/mana/soul, as well as health funnel. The JC fun items that project a beam onto your target do originate form the gorilla's hand correctly, though.

Commento di 9806

Since patch 3.3 this trinket is apparently for Hunters since no one else was able to roll need on the item in the instance (it was won by a level 77 Hunter in Halls of Lightning).

Commento di 59635

I got 1 from Violet Hold heroic last night, dropped from 2nd boss. It's pretty cool, but the effect disapears sometimes without reason.

Commento di 471358

Dropped for me today, Christmas, off of Novos, The Summoner. Three out of my random group hit DE, the other said to hit need so i did and he hit greed! I consider it a perfect not overly awesome Christmas gift from Blizz in a way!

A funny little tid bit to add, i actually just seen this item less than a week ago on wowhead and never thought twice about gettin one!

Commento di GravenTerenas

This just dropped in a random heroic using the LFD system. Everyone in the group rolled "Need" but when I went to do the same, the button was greyed out for me and it would only let me "Greed". Very unimpressed shadow priest here. It's been weeks now since this patch was released, and it's not cool that they still haven't sorted out the glaring issues with loot....

*Edit* Well, looks like they heard me. I just saw this drop again in a LFD random heroic (ToC) and it let me roll "Need" this time! Unfortunately I didn't win the roll, but at least I know that casters can roll on this now. I was healing at the time, not sure if that makes a difference - the mage in the group rolled "Disenchant" and I didn't think to ask him if his "Need" button was greyed out.

Commento di 383764

Got this neat trinket off of trash in Old Kingdom today - The tables say 0%, so very lucky heh.

Is certainly a head turner. Fun trinket to use if you ever do actually get it. :-)

Commento di 498279

just got it few minutes ago cause of the bug <3

2 was able to roll me and someone else ^^

yay

Commento di 461466

Droped in HCoS but leader had roll system on Need before Greed. For some reason Blizzard thinks clothies or at least mages don't need this, so I missed that roll.

Commento di Missrihanna

yesterday i saw it dropping for the first time and i lost it it made me so sad :-( as big dragon ball fan it would be very nice to have some fun in the game. Still can't believe i didn't won it. /cry

please if someone from blizz reads this let us people have some more fun in the game and gives us more change on this one.

Commento di raexx

hmm, kinda suprised that no one has mentioned the song: Helloween - Pink bubbles go ape :)

Commento di 347254

I know what I'm about to say doesn't help anybody get it, provide any amusing information, or in fact accomplish anything, but I felt I should share this. Feel free to rate me down if I'm out of place, but the following people deserve a mighty large shout-out:

Ibizan
Foepaw
Rhyan
Basenji

All from Ravenholdt.

I was doing a queue'd Pit of Saron run when I wound up with these four wonderful people. The ball dropped, we all agreed to Need on it, but for some reason my Need button wasn't working and it wouldn't let me roll Need. I asked if I could just pass and then /roll on it and they agreed. My /roll was highest, and even though Rhyan had technically won the need roll, she went ahead and gave it to me anyway. She didn't stand anything to gain from it, I couldn't pay her for it or in fact do anything useful for her, but she gave it away anyway.

I just want to say that it was absolutely *wonderful* to see WoW players like them. Of course, I wanted this amazing trinket, but more than that, they were amazing people who did the right thing just to do the right thing.

To you four, thank you for being so kind and thank you for being wonderful people.

And Rhyan, I hope you find your Hilt soon. =D

Commento di modrogon

Sign...

With the new LFD/ need before greed system, I'm unable to roll need as a cloth wearer. I've seen it dropped twice.

Yes, I know the bonus is attack power which blocks me from rolling need as a cloth wearer. But at this stage of the game that attack power is really weak. Only use now is the eye candy of turning into a ape in a bubble.

Commento di gostop

Apparently you can use this in any of druid's form. I saw a guy in Dal today using the glitch to stay in flight while staying in this form, so he looked like he was flying in ape form around dal.

Now I have this on my paladin. So I joined on the fun. But he was bragging how he could fly in his ape form while I can't. I then popped my wings and /flex which he simply replied "ZOMG". The irony here is that the gorilla who can fly is envying the gorilla with wings that can't fly.

You can also pop bubble for bubble within a bubble. Or freedom for some kickass disco effect. We eventually partied up and I Hand of Protected him while he was in flight. Made for some awesome screen shot~

Commento di darksoul019

This dropped in H VH and as a mage i could only greed it which was quite @%@#%@ as it seemed the melee could need it thus making it so i couldnt have a fair chance of winning it, seeing its a fun trinket everyone should be allowed to roll need on it..... once again Blizz fails. Not Happy.

Commento di 87273

Just ran a heroic lightning halls and it dropped 3/4 of the way through. After that was done I ran a heroic VH and another one dropped, this one I won! Very lucky indeed. I've ran hundreds and hundreds of heroics and have never seen this drop, hell...I've never even seen anyone use this trinket.

Commento di 178874

Looking at the available data, it seems this trinket can drop off anything as long as it's level 79+ and drops standard loot (no quest-spawned mobs and the like). No raid bosses have recorded entries, so they are probably the exception. Then again, they don't drop standard loot either.

Commento di 348211

lol just got this one in Hals of ligtning. didt know what it was. but it shure looks crasy =)

Commento di Qeeju

Looks rather humorous combined with the paladin ability Avenging Wrath, giving your gorilla wings of golden light.

Commento di 628370

Definitely a Super Monkey Ball reference.

Commento di penguinsane

The description used to say "Go ape in a bubble for 5 min." I am not sure when they changed it, but I assume they did so because people were thinking they meant "go apesh*t". :P

Commento di 136440

Apparently, if this drops in a random dungeon, cloth-wearing classes cannot roll Need for it. :(

Commento di 635594

If your tired of watching Druids with this fly above your heads while your a sad little grounded ape here's a trick for ya! Grab some Underbelly Elixers and wait for the dragon fly effect and Bam! flying Monkey!

Commento di mazhop

Just had this drop for me this morning while farming for skins.

Time to pop out my pet gorilla and go "ape" chit while in form!

*no pun intented of course....

Commento di kabookiejoe

fun thing to do, is go flight form and hover above dalaran, nothing like flying apes.

notice a bit back... This was no longer possible. Not sure if bug or intended change

Commento di Lazurianis

You can fight in combat with this. You can also take damage, had guildie tank HoS with this it was a blast to see a monkey bashing all the npcs skulls out. :)

Commento di 266234

dropped in H HoS, heirloomed rogue got it QQ

Commento di geocyn

this is also usable with Arcanite Ripper for some awesome face melting fun in a bubble :)

Commento di TheGrimHeaper

well just found out 2 humorous things about this trinket, sitting in dal and apparently druids can use flight form while in this form (that's right flying monkeys)

another funny thing as i turned into one to join in the fun, activated my rocket boots and suddenly went flying into the air, now i activated them again for safe measure and it did NOT shoot me into the air a second time who knows why this happened but i will do this any chance i get

Commento di Pengalor

I just got this today but the how blew me away. I was doing Argent Tournament dailies and was finishing up the quest "You did it this time, Kul". I looted one of the Dark Zealots around the cages and a lotting confirmation popped up. I went back to see what it was and, lo and behold, it was the magical Super Simian Sphere! I was just absolutely amazed! I had seen this drop one other time in a dungeon and lost the roll, but I had no idea this could drop off non-elite mobs. Very cool little toy indeed. Funnily enough, I also won the recipe for Bad Clams in a Heroic Trial of the Champion run not long after looting this baby.

Commento di 749685

as of patch 4.0.3 does she still drop this?

Commento di 534473

Has some rather hilarious effects when combined with some of the new flavour items obtained from archaeology.

-Using this plus the highborne mirror will create another gorilla (or whatever else you have transformed into) - but it will be wielding your weapon!

-Using a transformation item to turn into a naga or wisp will do just that, but also, the bubble's size will change to reflect this. The one for a naga is typically huge.

-Using certain transformations will not cancel the bubble effect and still allow you to mount. This means that you can use them, mount, cancel the transformation effect, and enjoy your flying proto drake gorilla.

Commento di 717749

This item works with Arcanite RipperSquartatore d'Arcanite so you can bust out a face melter in your own light show. Add an Elune StonePietra di Elune spotlight for extra epicness. For the full effect, throw down some smoke flares and have a couple friends shoot fireworks. Make an emote or yell macro announce your band name and "Rock and Roll!" and watch hordes of crazed fans come running.

Commento di Nabril

also works with Druid's Flight Form... flying ape in a bubble :)

Commento di 782722

Nope, the post doesn't entirely say much on how to get it. Nor does it offer much in the way of humor. But if you ask me, posts like this definitely belong here.

More people should act like that. I know it won't do much for converting any rude or selfish people. But maybe it can inspire some people (who are normally inclined to be that way) to remember that the anonymous nature of an online game shouldn't be an excuse to just be rude to everybody.

Commento di Jakarro

I have been farming this for a few days myself after ackowledging her drop rate for the Sphere. She has dropped many greens and one blue item. Her horse however did drop Signet of Edward the Odd (Epic DPS ring). I will keep you posted if I should happen to get lucky.

Commento di Lurtzello

I wonder what happens if you transfom into the Sandstone Drake after uting this...

Commento di 819437

Commento di 298971

I made a list of gimmick items which you can use to transform your character into a different form or race or even gender to play around with. I didn't add items like weapons that provide a procc with a transform effect that only lasts a few seconds even though I know about them. My intention was to list all items with controlable transformations. Feel free to let me know if I missed an item!
I want to thank all the people below my lists who pointed out items I missed! This list grows thanks to your effort as well! Thanks guys, you're great!

Anyone else a hunter?

Well what you can do with this and Archaeology is:

Use the trinket, then use Camo, then use Bones of Transformation. I'll post a screen shot of it later :).

Commento di Sinkatze

Can anyone confirm if this item is droped by Sapph? Cause it says on this page, but when I enter to Sapph it doesn't show this item as one of her drops.

Btw if she does drop it, it is the highest drop with 0.3 and she respawns every 1 minute.

Commento di blackbone

For all you seeking the source of the "Monkeysphere", you can reference to this article : http://www.cracked.com/article_14990_what-monkeysphere.html

It explains "what is the monkeysphere". Going into detail how everyone is basically a monkey, and we can have a limited number of real close friends. Well, just read the article for the full story :)

Got this just a couple hours ago doing Utegarde Pinnacle for the Blue Protodrake. Ill be honest, I was more excited when this finally dropped for me than getting the Corrupted Egg from the Glory of the Firelands raider achievement last night.

Commento di Missrihanna

does anyone has a good idea how to get this trinket i'm trying to get it atm more then 2 years and saw it only once?

Commento di Missrihanna

Seen people farming it for years never won it, yes it's very beautifull but this trinket is doomed since blizz fails on making it available for people. I try to farm it for many years and saw it 1 time only but wasn't able to need on it. So it's a real shame that i saw many people leaving wow too.

Commento di 393071

Alright, I've become a transformation addict on my mage. I've started my Simian Sphere hunt with Sapph farming. Did this for a few weeks during off-work hours. This proved to be the least successful formula. I lightly farmed heroic LK dungeons but didn't go hard into it after. Then, by chance, I cross referenced Northrend World Drops with Inscription hunters(Book of Glyph Mastery). A good farming spot recommended was H CoS: You clear to gauntlet but don't talk to Arthas. Gauntlet respawns way faster then Sapph ever would. Currently: I farm every LK Heroic I can.(I avoid or never fully clear Occulus(difficult or impossible solo), Halls of Stone(God, that second to last boss is boringgggg), O.K.(Difficult to solo kill Blood Prince), Utgarde Pinnacle(I avoid killing first boss due to high death rate but clear rest). If my DK friend is online, we team up and 2 man the 3x Icecrown Heroics. So far, my hunt got me about 20+ Book of Glyph Masters, 3 epics(Je'Tze's Bell, Zom's Crackling Bulwark, Namlak's Supernumerary Sticker).

When I get instance locked(starting to be frequent!), I analyze the drop rates for outdoor mobs, Storm Peaks or Icecrown and farm them(Converted Heroes - Icecrown, Library Guardians - Storm Peaks).

G'luck fellow hunters!

Commento di 555424

So today while farming the Chosen Zealots in Icecrown to get my grisly trophies i got a Sfera della Super Scimmia drop, Im not braging about it, just using for a reference that these mobs do drop them and are general easy to farm so might be a good idea for anyone

Commento di citrique

There seem to be a lot of useless comments here, so a summary of good info:

Farming:

- This can drop off any mob above level 79 in Northrend or Wrath dungeons/raids.
- It has a higher chance of dropping off elite mobs.
- It can drop off boss mobs in WotLK dungeon and raid instances.
- It can drop while Timewalking in WotLK dungeons.
- There is no particular elite mob with a higher drop chance than normal.
- Thus far, there is no known instance of this item (or any other toy) being obtained from a garrison salvage crate.
- Sapph does not have the highest drop rate for this item, it just happens that people running the Wowhead client had this drop off Sapph slightly more often than any other particular mob when data was collected.
- The best way to "farm" for this toy is to kill elite mobs en masse. Thus, Zelota Prescelto or trash mobs in heroic instances are the best way to go. Naxx and Pit of Saron are the most popular instances to farm.

Using:

- The buff from this toy falls off if you take a portal or change zones
~~- The buff from this trinket falls off if you remove it~~
- The buff from this toy falls off if you mount, unless you are using other shape changing buffs on top.
- The buff from this toy stacks with various other transform buffs such as Corno per Libagioni dei Vrykul, Burgy Blackheart's Handsome Hat, etc.
- You can retain the bubble effect from this toy in druid forms.
- You can mount with the bubble effect if transformed using an effect or trinket which you would normally be able to mount with, such as Medaglione di Leyara, Burgy Blackheart's hat, etc.
- You can be a gorilla standing on top of a mount by using this, using a transform like Burgy's hat, mounting, then removing the Burgy's buff by swapping back to your normal helm.

I myself "farmed" for this by solo clearing Naxx 10 every week on my DK, as every mob in it is elite and it's also a good way to farm gold, abyss crystals, cloth and other enchanting mats. Getting a higher chance for this to drop (off a Stoneskin Gargoyle, FWIW) was just a bonus. However, I have probably cleared Naxx on the order of 100 times (on varying difficulties) since Wrath launch and seen it drop only twice.

Commento di GreenFlag

My hunter had this, and i was extremely happy because i thought no one else had it. After a year or so i went back to my hunter to find the Sphere missing! I was rather angry, and still to this day i have no idea where it has gone...
It's a great looking effect though!

A "friend" from my realm searched the chat for people to farm the Precious Ribbon, and he said the first one was reserved to him, the second one for me. I thought "Well, okay I don't really need it that much anyway..." Then it dropped on our 3rd run, so I was happy it was that fast. On our 4th run, we killed some trash but I didn't notice this dropped. Then he said "/roll". I was like "What?" but I rolled. I rolled 91, then he rolled and he rolled 67. Then he made this smiley ":O" and I just asked, "What did I win? :D" for fun. And he wrote "the roll xD". When we killed Precious, the shirt didn't drop. On the way back, he picked up the trinket. I saw it in the chat because he had ML on. Then I asked "What's that?" (I began in Cataclysm, never really played ICC) and he just wrote "MONKEYBALL". Then he used it and I realised that's a rare trinket making you to a monkey! (I really enjoy random model/colour changers, mounts, and all that) Then I was really happy, because I knew I won it! Then I traded him, but he refused. I thought he was playing games with me, so I just asked him nicely to hand it over. Then he said "You can for the shirt, not trinkets". I told him "We killed this trash together, I won the roll fair and square, just give it to me." And he refused. We had a long discussion about what's fair and what not. I didn't want to waste more time on that, so I went to Orgrimmar. Then I JUST found it how rare it is.

And what's worse it, I got the Orb of Deception (Making the ball another color) and i'm a mage, so I can mirror image it so I can have 4 monkeys. Pretty much everything that can step it up, as far i'm aware, and he took it from me. :-(

If you happen to join such runs, REMEMBER to ask about loot rules for trinkets, low drop rate rare items, etc.!

Edit: I got Burgy Blackheart's Handsome Hat aswell...

Commento di Gigabear

Got this after about 10 hours of actual farming in Heroic Pits Of Saron just resetting trash. I suspect I got it much sooner then I should have though. I believe it did drop from one of the skeletal slaves but it is hard to say as I had Aoe looting and the caster was also in that pile with them.
I choose to farm there for the chance at a battered hilt so I might make some gold. I scored one of those and about 10k in vendor trash gold.

Commento di filletr0n

I'm an avid collector of gimmick items, and ever since I saw this drop back in Wotlk (Heroic Utgarde Pinnacle) and lost the roll, I thought that I would never see it drop again. I'm also a mount collector, so every week I run solo ICC and Ulduar for a chance to get the mounts without the hassle of losing a roll. Today I was doing my routine clear of Ulduar, skipping the trash mobs that you don't need to clear. I killed all the bosses that are required to open the ancient gate. When the gate opens, there's always a pack of mobs waiting for you, so I cleared them in a nano second, like I always do and what do you know, one of them dropped the sphere. I gotta admit I released a high pitch scream like a sissy boy. My opinion is that all the best items/mounts drop when you don't have your mind set on them. The mount didn't drop as usual, maybe next week I'll try to think about work, friends or the weather and maybe Yogg will finally poop the head.

Commento di Getafx

Well.

I kinda stupidly decided to farm this item for the toy box in 6.0. Its been a very frustrating 3 weeks.

I Initially read all the posts on this page seeing people get this item in 50-100 clears of Heroic Pit of Saron and thought I could try and be lucky and do the same. So far I've done over 500 trash clears of Heroic Pit of Saron, and multiple Naxx 25 Plague Wing trash clears (Trash Room before Heigan).

The only good thing about all these clears is the tens of thousands of vendorable greens and gray items, and the staggering amount of frostweave cloth (I'm a tailor) that I've been able to sell for high amounts.

TLDR: Be prepared for a very long farm and hopefully your stubborn enough to keep going until you get it.

Edit: Ha! Within 2 hours (about 15 or so clears of Heroic Pit of Saron) of making this post, it finally dropped. Finally!

Commento di lordphoenix

I got mine today. After about 5 hours of farming heroic Pit of Saron. Excellent place to farm. Tons of mobs you can pull while mounted, lots of gold to gain, cloth to farm and broken hilts drop. I got 3 hilts, 60 stacks of cloth, 6k gold and a damaged necklace in that time.
Good luck to all trying for the sphere!

Commento di Hashupa

I finally got mine after somewhere around 800+ runs of heroic Pit of Saron. This was achieved over the course of nearly a month at an average rate of 30 runs per day and is definitely not recommended unless you're really wanting to complete your toy box in WoD.

First off, any post claiming to have obtained this item after a few hours is not the norm. If you come into farming an item like this, thinking it won't take long, you will get burnt out very quickly. The sphere is like any other random Northrend epic drop and seems to share their drop rate more or less. You might get lucky, but the odds of that are very slim. I found multiples of many other Northrend epics before I ever saw the sphere.

There are a couple ways that people are obtaining this. Some are just running WotLK raids with ample trash, such as Ulduar or Naxxramas, on a weekly basis. Farming certain instances is your best bet and Pit of Saron can be a more lucrative choice because of Battered Hilt drops.

As for the sphere itself, it is currently a trinket, but in 6.0 it will change to an account-wide toy that can be activated straight from your toy box. As of this post, the transformation will disappear if you log out and it seems you can no longer use it in conjunction with other transformation items to become a mounted gorilla.

Dealing or taking damage will not break the effect. Removing the trinket will break the effect. When used with other transformation items, you temporarily lose the gorilla appearance, but you keep the pink bubble! Model size has an effect on bubble size. Using Bussola d'Ottone di Ser Torello + Corno per Libagioni dei Vrykul will cause you to have a very large bubble.

Good luck to anyone attempting this BEAST of a farm!

Commento di Dogmeatman

I started farming this for the WoD toybox. Mine dropped from normal Pit of Saron so you don't have to run it on heroic. I'd run maybe 120 heroics over 5 days then I got locked out when I killed some bosses so thought I would try a normal and it dropped on my first normal. Go figure....

Commento di BMHunterMain

Confirmed to still be farmable in PoS for 6.0.2. I had been farming it for about 2 weeks and finally got it today on live from PoS trash pulls. Good luck everyone.

Commento di zknm7

I remember this trinket dropping off of trash in a Heroic Oculus run back when Wrath was current, and me winning the roll on my paladin. I never could bring myself to vendor it, even all throughout Cata and Mists, and now, with the Warlords of Draenor pre-patch, it has been turned from a trinket into a toy and I can now enjoy it on all of my characters. Good luck farming if you don't have it and keep in mind that sometimes some things are worth holding on to. :)

Commento di Rasorath

I wasn't even trying to farm this. I was working through going through to get the azure proto drake. It was when I took down a mob I couldn't move around that this ended up dropping for me, off of a Bloodthirsty Tundra Wolf.

And then my internet cut out while I was trying to learn it, and for a few minutes I though I had lost the loot. Nope! It is all settled in my toy box!

Commento di thesandbox

Since it hasn't been posted here yet, I'll go ahead and do it:

For those of you farming Heroic Pit of Saron for the fabulous Sfera della Super Scimmia, here is a rough run down of the numbers and what to expect. This data is taken from wowdb as wowhead appears to have insufficient or incomplete information about it (the drops are just a bit high).

When trash clearing the main area you will encounter ~75 mobs, of which ~20 of them are elite.

Drop chances for the relevant mobs are listed as:

Deathwhisper Torturer 0.009%
Wrathbone Laborer 0.004%
Skeletal Slave 0.002%

The majority of mobs encountered will be the Skeletal Slaves (usually in groups of 6 with one Deathwhisper Necrolyte). Since these are all so low, we will be basing this off of the Skeletal Slave drop chance. A typical clear of trash will take you about 3 minutes by mounting up and collecting all the trash, then AoEing them down. If you have an alt on another server, you can run it continuously, 10 times on one server, then 10 on another.

The probability of observing one Sfera della Super Scimmia after x kills assuming all have the same 0.002% probability, is as follows,

P(x) = 1 - (1 - 0.00002)^x

So we have that,

Killing 1 mob

P(1) = 1 - (1 - 0.00002)^1 = .0020%

Killing 100 mobs (4 minutes)

P(100) = 1 - (1 - 0.00002)^100 = 0.1998%

Killing 1,000 mobs (40 minutes)

P(1000) = 1 - (1 - 0.00002)^1000 = 1.9802%

Killing 10,000 mobs (6 hours 40 minutes)

P(10000) = 1 - (1 - 0.00002)^10000 = 18.1270%

Killing 20,000 mobs (13 hours 20 minutes)

P(20000) = 1 - (1 - 0.00002)^20000 = 32.9682%

Killing 30,000 mobs (20 hours)

P(30000) = 1 - (1 - 0.00002)^30000 = 45.1192%

Killing 40,000 mobs (26 hours 40 minutes)

P(40000) = 1 - (1 - 0.00002)^40000 = 55.0675%

Killing 50,000 mobs (33 hours 20 minutes)

P(50000) = 1 - (1 - 0.00002)^50000 = 63.2124%

Killing 60,000 mobs (40 hours)

P(60000) = 1 - (1 - 0.00002)^60000 = 69.8809%

Killing 70,000 mobs (46 hours 40 minutes)

P(70000) = 1 - (1 - 0.00002)^70000 = 75.3406%

Killing 80,000 mobs (53 hours 20 minutes)

P(80000) = 1 - (1 - 0.00002)^80000 = 79.8107%

Killing 90,000 mobs (60 hours)

P(90000) = 1 - (1 - 0.00002)^90000 = 83.4704%

Killing 100,000 mobs (66 hours 40 minutes)

P(100000) = 1 - (1 - 0.00002)^100000 = 86.4667%

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Finally: for a 95% likeliness of seeing it drop,

.95 = 1-(1-.00002)^x -----> x=149,785 (99 hours 51.6 minutes)

--------------------------------------------------------------------
Keeping in mind this in no way guarantees that it does drop. Happy farming everyone!

It would be nice if Blizzard would make this BoE now that it is a toy..... that would make it a nice way to make money, and it's definitely more desirable now that it is an account-wide toy...

This just dropped for me off Sorella Svalna in ICC, although it isn't on her loot table, and she isn't listed on the dropped by tab here. I'm guessing because there's only one of her per run of the instance, it's a lot less likely to see it off her, and just hasn't been recorded yet.

Commento di Qybern

I just calculated the average droprate based on all data availble on wowhead. (I took each drop average and weighted it correctly for the number of data points). The overall droprate I got was 0.002617% or 1 in 38204. For those of you that use Rarity you can plug that in and set it to drop in zone 10 (northrend). Happy hunting.

I just had a very weird experience.

I was starting my long journey towards Loremaster, starting with Icecrown because that's the zone where I did all but ~30 quests. I started doing a quest where I had to kill those flesh giants on the ramparts of the Citadel. I got disconnected from the server, and when I logged back in and checked my inventory, it was there. I didn't notice it drop, but it must have dropped. Probably from those flesh giants, it seems to back up the claim that they drop the most from level 80 Elites.

Hey, buddies. I would just like to thank you for all the information posted here. Whenever I decide to start farming something I always read a lot about it for info and encouragement, both of which I found here.

So after some weeks of filling up my toy box, and overlooking this because it's a world drop BoP, I decided yesterday to head into Pit of Saron with my mind set on doing at least 2000 runs before giving up. I farmed for about 7 hours straight yesterday on two characters. I believe I did about 90 runs or so with no luck that evening. It's possible to go faster than that ofc, but I'm not the most efficient farmer. Today I woke up excited to continue farming (a tv series on another monitor or laptop is a must). I did about 30 more runs before I decided to download the rarity addon and add the Sphere because it's a little bit of extra motivation.

20 runs later an "achievement" popped up. At first I thought it was an exalted achievement (I put on different tabards for rep gains while farming), but it turned out the Sphere actually dropped and the achievement was the addon telling me I had achieved my goal. So yeah, it took me about 150 runs and some 11000 mobs killed. According to the addon this gave me a little more than 20% chance of having it drop, so rng truly was on my side this time.

This post doesn't give any new info, but I guess I'm just hoping it can be a little bit of motivation like a lot of the other posts here. So thanks again and good luck! I hope you all find it soon.

Commento di Faell

Pit of Saron is good, but Naxx is better.

Almost all the mobs in Naxx you will be farming are elite. Elite mobs have a higher drop rate for world BoE's.

You won't get any battered hilts in Naxx, but you will get a ton more frostweave cloth to sell. Blizz nerfed the drop rate of frostweave cloth in PoS due to farmers, but Naxx was unchanged.

Kill the first boss in the Plague Quarter on normal 10 Naxx. Zone out and set it to normal 25 Naxx. You can now clear all the trash between the first and second boss in Plague Quarter, trash before first boss in Military Quarter, zone out, reset, and repeat. Takes 4-5 minutes per clear depending on class. Around 150 mobs.

Good luck!

Commento di fchang69

I often Duplicatore di Manalampo + Sfera della Super Scimmia + Abito da Goren + Restringimondo + Insegna dell'Araldo della Luce at the begining of a BG. The order has a reason for most of it...Pic here

If you use Sfera della Super Scimmia first before another xform item, the purple sphere remains arround you. So if I use Abito da Goren after it, I'll be a goren in a purple sphere...

Even better, you can actually use Duplicatore di Manalampo before any other xform/xform combo, and you'll still randomly blurt out Manastorm's lines while in combat, even though you have another shape...

I apply Restringimondo and Insegna dell'Araldo della Luce at the end while I'm sure Restringimondo can be used prior to anything else for the same effect. Not sure about Insegna dell'Araldo della Luce though...

I also found out that using Duplicatore di Manalampo then Sfera della Super Scimmia on my female Draenei toon, will make her have a male Draenei voice!

I farmed this toy from Naxxramus 25-man trash in about 4 hours (spread across several days).
Naxx 25 has the best clustering of mobs with confirmed drops of the item, and is easily soloed with no interference from other players. There is also enough trash per run that you can farm it continuously without ever hitting the instance per hour limit.

My strategy:

Use a class with high-uptime mobility to minimize travel time between mobs. Rogue Scarica di Velocità+Predatore della Notte is pretty ideal, Shaman Lupo Spettrale is probably second best, Monk/Mage/Warlock would do alright with appropriate talents. Also helps to wear some speed items, like Marchio della Rovina Suprema
First run of the week, kill the first boss in the Spider wing (Anub) and the first boss in the Plague wing (Noth). This gives you access to the larger trash pulls after them.
Thereafter, kill all the available trash in each of the Spider, Military and Plague wings, WITHOUT killing any more bosses (stop upon reaching a boss). All three wings have several trash mobs with wowhead-confirmed drops of the toy. Don't bother with Construct quarter.
Finish your trash clear in either Plague or Military wing and then teleport out, since those have the longest run back. You can teleport to the graveyard by joining and then leaving a group, from LFG or a friend.
Reset the instance and do it again. (While zoned out, Right click on your portrait -> Reset all instances)
Bonus: If you bring lots of bag space and a vendor mount to sell trash after every run, you will net a few hundred gold per run.
Misc: Depredatore di Findle and Corno da Battaglia can be helpful, but not strictly necessary.

Mine dropped from a Deathknight Captain, and I have a screenshot to prove it.
Good luck!

Commento di Ajester

So I've been farming this toy for over a week now on my rogue and am up to 46k kills. I've been doing mostly Naxx 25 plague and military wings with the occasional Pit of Saron trash run or clearing the various other dungeons and have seen 4 different world drops, just not the one i need. I have been using the addon Rarity to keep track and if u do as well keep in mind any disconnects will not keep track of recent kills so you may want to reload ui every once in a while. Wish me luck guys I plan to go until at least 100k :)

Edit-I finally got it to drop in the military quarter at 52k kills! Terrible grind but tbh sprite darter in cata xpac was rougher imo. Addition of aoe looting def makes this less cumbersome. Good luck to anyone who tries to farm the toy.

Commento di Gadrail

Got this while randomly clearing ICC 25 HC i was nearly going to vendor it later ..lol

Commento di lovesky0225

wow!
Today I finally get this item at Naxxramas.

Due to above comment, i decided to farm this item at naxxramas.

My strategy is that killing all the mobs of plague district before 2nd named(I can't remember its name) and army district before 1st named as Lazubius(Is it right spell? sorry i'm not enligsh native speaker.)
I slauther all the mobs and reset naxxramas.
I repeat this pattern almost 48 hours.

after farming I got forty-thousands golds and nearly twenty-thousands frost fabric material and few epic world drop items as Je'Tze's Bell, Signet of Edward the Odd, etc.

To be frankly sometimes i decided to give up this labor.
Because it is so lazy and boring and ^&*!ing hard.

To whom want to get this item
Best of luck to you.

I add a screenshot. https://imgur.com/a/Cmv5h2L

Commento di Pannick314

Hi guys! First of all thanks for all the helpful comments!
After nearly 12 years of playing this game I decided to make an account on wowhead just to comment on this and share my story.
Something incredible happened! I started farming with the method described bellow at naxx.. I only did a few runs (1,5k kills) there on my rogue. I was only running arachnid quarter ending it at Faerlina. In those kills I got 2 Je'Tze's Bell, no luck with the toy.
I had another char (my mage) at Pit of Saron. There I farmed on and off for some hours per day for 3 days. I did a bit more than 3k kills there. (Total naxx+PoS kills=4782). I have to state that I am running WotlK dungeon and raids since it was current. Never saw the toy.
To get to the point, in these 3 days I read some comments here under some raid mounts and I thought to try equiping the Talisman of true Treasure Tracking while farming. I went to farm for the first time Throne of the Four Winds. On the 7th kill in total and first of my mage I got the mount. After that the next 2 days I was farming with the neck on Naxx and PoS. The run before the last one awarded me with my first battered hilt, and the exactly next one, the super simian sphere. Pretty damn lucky I would say! I was prepared for more than 50k kills. I want to encourage every farmer to put this neck on! I know it most likely is a placebo and rng was on my side this time, but it just feels too extreme and surreal to be just random. I wish everyone the same luck and happy hunting!

Commento di 1635686

Didn't even know this existed until it dropped today off of a frostwing whelp.

Commento di SoLoR1

Farming this crap so pisses me off... Farming this on and off for last month, killed about ~70k mobs in PoS and Naxx, got 15+ Battered Hilts, probably every other BoE world drop (some of them 2-3 times), yet this toy (only toy left to get outside 3 seasonal and TCG ones) eludes me. Sooo annoying when only thing to farm in this game are mounts with under 0.05% drop or TOY with 0.01% drop.

Commento di YourNameHere

Got it today after ~17k kills (+ those ones before installing/customizing the rarity addon). Dropped from a bat in Naxx 25N - the packs just after the first boss in the plague quarter.

Commento di oscar1995

I'm still in shock.
After farming for many days in Naxx 25N i grew tired of my poor luck. I was at 34k kills (counted with the Rarity addon) and decided to head over to this comment section too see if anyone had discovered any new farming method. I stumbled upon Pannick314's comment about the Talisman of True Treasure Tracking and though, why not.

I head back to Naxx 25N, enter the Plague quarter and run my usual path, gathering all trashmobs between the first and second boss. The moment I loot the Rarity addon flashes before me. The FIRST item I looted since I equipped the necklace was the very Super Simian Sphere. I just can't believe it.

If you're on the verge of giving up the farm just try with the necklace and see, for it might hold some powers after all.

Commento di Henne8210

A while ago i were farming Ulduar for the Mimiron's Head mount. Totally oblivious about the Sfera della Super Scimmia, it dropped from one of the titan mobs guarding the passage to Keeper Thorim! Video proof: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wAaQmk9-Pbs

You're now able to mount with this toy without the buff being removed.

Commento di Apphrodite

Can confirm 7.0 it still drops from Naxx 10m plague quarter 90 mob, bat pull aoe all at once before the 2nd boss. Took me 26k kills :) good luck! you are gonna need it!

Commento di Mikzon

I wonder if this was the precursor to winston in overwatch...

Commento di Priestseven

I decided to try and farm this toy from Chozen Zealots in Icecrown, here are my stats.

I had 5 accounts open while farming so these stats are for a party of 5.

There are 44 Chozen Zealots in the building to the right of the ICC stairs, they have a 2 minute respawn timer and for me took about 30 seconds to pull and kill.

I farmed only for an hour roughly, which was 25 resets. equalling 1,100 kills.

Loot gained:
Frostweave Cloth - 2,058
5 Blues
Roughly 3k gold from vendoring/gold drops

Many green items dropped but did not count since i was just vendoring them.

Without the comforting feeling that these do in fact drop the Super Simian Sphere, I would rather run Naxx.

Commento di christiantroy

This toy also drops from Northrend timewalking dungeons. Got mine from Halls of Lightning trash.

Commento di Magirock468

Can confirm as well that you can obtain it from WotLK Timewalking dungeons.

Commento di Erare

This can be a brutal farm. I used the Naxx method, kill first boss in arachnid quarter, first boss in plague quarter, no boss in military. Farm all the trash in those 3 quarters thereafter without killing any more bosses. Rinse. And. Repeat.

438 times over 3-4 weeks. 209 lootable mobs per run. 438 runs x 209 mobs = 91,542 mobs killed (+ who knows how many from my very long WoTLK career).

438 runs x 6 min / run = 43.8 hrs (Probably closer to 50 hours)

It finally dropped in Plague Quarter. Couldn't tell you which mob, mass loot. Bats, maggots, hulking dudes.

I got these Purple BoEs:
5 signet of edward the odd (Purple BoE)
2 wapach's spaulders of solidarity (Purple BoE)
2 Je'Tze's bell (Purple BoE)
1 sword of avool jin (Purple BoE)
1 zom's crackling bulwark (Purple BoE)
1 namlak's supernumeray sticker (Purple BoE)
1 sash of jordan (Purple BoE)

And these blue BoEs + Other oddities
10 torta's oversized choker
9 jcrecipes
8 shimmering girdle
6 titanium lockbox
7 wristguard of verdant recovery
8 grips of the warming heart
9 damaged necklace
2 cracklefire wristguards
2 gwyneth's runed dragonwand
1 twisted puzzle ring
1 condor bone chestguard
1 skullcage of eternal terror

The way I see it, Super Simian Sphere has about the same chance or maybe a little less to drop as the 7 purple BoEs. You can expect to see a purple BoE 91,542/13 boes = 1 boe every 7,041 mobs or so.

I think I had bad luck with this. The number I kept seeing was 1 in every 10,000 mobs. I think it's more like 1 in 25,000-50,000.

Do everything you can to increase movespeed. Also, I was able to use Monk Transcendence in 2 spots, plague and military, to shave about a minute off each run.

Good luck and keep hold of your sanity!

I didn't know this thing even existed until today. I was in ICC 25 farming for the battle pets when this dropped from a from a Frostwing Whelp trash right before Sindragosa.

Commento di Zemorak

Dropped today in Onyxia's Lair(25)

Went into Onyxia's Lair today and as I always kill every stray mob everywhere even if it is a level 7 sheep in Elwynn Forest just because it just might drop something rare. To my surprise Sfera della Super Scimmia dropped from one of the Onyxian Warders patroling the path down to Onyxia. These mobs are not listed by Wowhead as a source of drop but as people have mentioned it drops from elite mobs tied to the Wrath of the lich king expansion.

My 75th Onyxia kill on this toon, still no luck with the mount. But this certainly made my day!

Okay, an unusual question here - I pretty much do UP HC daily for the blue proto drake mount, but not always loot every mob, so...

If the toy drops for you and you don't loot it, do you receive it to your mail, or is it lost forever? Anyone have an idea/ has received the toy to his mail?

Commento di NatalieWright

I wanted to give up so many times while farming this. I have played since the beta for WoW, and have tried on and off since Wrath to farm for this toy. My NPC kill total is likely somewhere around 500k+ overall. I finally got this toy though a few days ago after 108,045 kills in Naxx off of one of the mobs in the Plague quarter, probably a bat. I would switch between my DK, Druid, and Monk because they could all port back to their class halls and vendor things without having to run out. I was starting to get the feeling that it wasn't going to drop, or that somehow the loot had maybe changed after Blizz added all the scaling to older content. I can't tell you how excited I was to finally see the toy drop. I'm just missing 2 farm-able toys in the game now...The rest are from the card game and BMAH. Good luck, be sure to start watching a new show or something while you farm for this!

Commento di Zorach

Today i ran my daily ICC and first it dropped from the trash mobs in the stair of the vampire boss.
10 min later i went it on my monk and it dropped again from the fleshrippers on my way to festergut. What is this blizzard? i cant get mount but i can get 0.01% drops two times within 10 min...

Was going to give up but there it dropped :) I have many alts so the trash reset on 30min was no problem.

This just dropped for me from either a Naxxramas Acolyte or Naxxramas Cultist (Grand Widow Faerlina's boss room).
I lost count on how many runs. Just confirming it still drops.

Commento di Lahshen

Confirmed drop in 25 man Naxx in Patch 8.1 from elite mobs in the Plague Quarter. This toy drops off of any elite mob in WOTLK dungeons, raids, and outdoor content.

If you're up for the task of farming this awesome but very low drop rate toy, here's my setup for fairly good efficiency. Be prepared to do at least 40hrs worth of total clears, easily in the hundreds of resets. (I didn't count specific resets as I did mine sporadically over several months.) Be advised that this is easily one of the worst grinds in the game. But after a while, you should start to get the hang of how to best pull all of the mobs and you can semi-autopilot it.

General premise:
Naxx 25 man (has the best accumulation of elite mobs)
5 level 100-120 alts all parked outside the entrance--try to pick ones that have a Loot-a-rang (if the toy drops and you don't loot it, it won't be mailed to you) or speed gear/abilities/blinks if possible
Clear Plague wing up until the second boss (but do not kill second boss)
Clear Military wing up until the first boss (but do not kill the first boss)

Because trash in Naxxramas does not reset instantly with the reset instance option in Patch 8.1, your character must exit the instance and wait for 30 minutes before trash respawns. To combat this, I cycled between 5 100-120 characters. Start with Toon 1, and clear up the second boss in the Plague Wing. You can easily just pull aggro on all the mobs in any given room all at once and just AOE everything down without much effort. After clearing up to the second boss (but do not kill the second boss, as this will cause all trash between the first boss chamber and second boss to no longer respawn. All mobs prior to the first boss will obviously not respawn after the first boss is dead.), run back and clear up the first boss in the adjacent Military wing (but do not kill the first boss). Without any sort of special speed set gear, this should take you ~7-8 minutes from start to finish. Exit the instance and swap to Toon 2. Do the same thing for Toons 2-5. By the time you finish on Toon 5, Toon 1's trash should be reset. Repeat! Do yourself a favor and have a vendor mount: so you can easily sell all the tons of worthless items you're sure to accumulate after a clear.

Ta-da! You're now a glowy purple monkey boi and probably never want to step foot in Naxxramas again.

Commento di Turowai

So it was bugging me that the 'Rarity' Addon didn't track this, so added it (via custom) myself.
I added it under 'drops from NPC's', and used the ID's of the current 66 mobs that have confirmed dropped on wowhead. I know this isn't completely accurate, as other mobs can drop it (ie, practically anything in northrend)... but this at least gave me a decent starting point (and vague estimate). Plus it would flash up if/when it does drop (so I notice it!).

Anywho... I just wanted to post this line of text for anyone else wishing to add it to their own rarity. It's the ID codes of all 66 mobs listed on wowhead as have dropped it. just c+p it as here:

Item ID:
37254

NPCs:
30286,26625,29874,29832,29931,29822,29768,28838,28580,28582,27960,27971,31161,34728,34734,29338,37148,37663,37034,36829,37038,37012,37027,37126,37532,36724,37666,37662,36811,36808,36725,37228,37595,37017,32175,16194,16037,16020,16168,16165,16146,15975,15976,16163,15974,16036,36886,26727,26805,30453,30680,30681,27636,40419,34137,33822,33819,33431,33754,33823,34198,23956,23960,26555,26696,28368

i like super simian sphere

Commento di Faell

This method won't work for everyone, but I was finally able to obtain this toy through multiboxing five accounts. I was able to hyper spawn Dark Zealot and Dark Ritualist mobs in Icecrown since they are quest mobs. I would kill for 12 minutes and then fly around looting on all of my characters. Corpses despawn after 2 minutes unless they have a rare or epic item on them, in which case they last for 30 minutes I believe. It took me approximately 4 hours, in which time I attained 4 BoE epics, around 50 BoE rares, 8 titanium lockboxes, 2 damaged necklaces, and then the toy.

You could also do this with a premade group so long as you organize where each person will stand. I would say you need at least 4 people to cover enough spawn points to create a hyper spawn situation.

Good luck!

So finally we found the Sphere. Twice.

After a very active WotLK career, with each and every Achievement completed, all battle pets and mounts obtained and almost every transmog, this toy just eluded me.

Reading all these comments here, I tried my luck for a while in Naxxramas and Fossa di Saron. Got nothing there.
Running instances seems just too ineffective. You run most of the time around without actually killing anything.
Then you kill the enemies within a second and loot and wait a minute to reset the instance.
Even with a lot optimization, you have still a lot downtime.
We needed a more brute force method here.
So after a short research I found this spot in Corona di Ghiaccio (37, 23) where there are Combattente Mjordin fighting each other.
The good thing about this spot is that you have always at least 3 enemies up. No matter how fast you kill them.
But there is also a downside. This is a quest area. Often players visit to do their quests.
If you kill everything too fast, you essentially make it impossible for them to finish their quests.
You should switch to a RP shard if you don't want to get annoyed whispers or take breaks and let them do their quests.

If you want to try this out here are some tips:

have at least one balance druid in your group, since they can reach all targets, except two
37.20 23.90 is a good position for a balance druid
plater addon is useful to check the range
be at least 2 players to cover all spawns, or you will have to move if you are alone
hunters can Riporto all targets from about the center. you don't need to move
hunter loot macro:
#showtooltip Fetch
/cast Dash
/cast Fetch
Depredatore di Bottino Automatico is also an option. just like with Riporto you reach all corpses (direct or indirect) from the center
loot often (every few seconds) to get also loot from the corpses >40m
corpses despawn after 2 minutes, unless at least a rare item is inside. then they stay longer. did not measure it, but 10-30 minutes is my guess
if you want to be sure not to miss any epic, run around every 10 minutes and loot everything by hand
melee are useless
learn the transmogs from the greens and sell them then, noone buys them from the ah
dejunk addon helps with selling

And here some statistics. We all love numbers, don't we?

We needed to farm 2 Sfera della Super Scimmia.
We were 5 level 110. Level should not matter much, but be at least 80 to be on the safe side.
Overall we looted 416428 Combattente Mjordin to get 2 Sfera della Super Scimmia. First dropped after about 290k.
On average we looted 3150 corpses per hour and farmed about 30 hours in total.
All greens were ilvl 89 to 100. Even right at the end we still found unlearned greens.
Some greens are rarer than the sphere! Yet worthless.
We've seen a lot of rare drops and these epics:

Based on this, I would argue the Sfera della Super Scimmia has the same drop chance as any other ilvl 100 epic.
For motivation: p=1-(0,875^x) tells you the chance that your x-th epic will be the sphere.
Epic #13 and #21 were our spheres.
Further I postulate that any npc that drops any of these 8 epics, can drop all of them.
So be creative in finding other instant respawn spots.

Commento di ToniaPat

I'm happy to say that this freaking toy still drops! I've been farming it for more than 2 years on at least 2 toons by doing the trash on Naxxramas 25. However, it just dropped for me today,out of the blue, while doing Utgarde Pinnacle Dungeon on HC for the Mount. It dropped out of some random thrash!
All i'm trying to say is don't give up, and ALWAYS LOOT EVERYTHING -and i mean everything- WHEN YOU ARE DOING WoTLK DUNGEONS AND RAIDS!

Commento di Lowong

I did the Naxxramas trick for 14 hours non stop.
- Kill the first boss of The Plague Quarter on 25 man: Noth the Plaguebringer.
- Get out of the raid.
- Reset all instances.
- Convert to 10 man.
- Kill all the trash before each first boss on each quarter (6 minutes run).

And I tried the Battered Hilt farm in the Pit of Sauron dungeon for 1 hour.
- On heroic mode kill all trash mobs possible without killing any boss.

So ... I did not get the toy Super Simian Sphere.

Does it still drop on instance mobs?

Hey , i would like to share my own experience with this item.
First of all i am an active player since TBC. I farmed dungeons and raids so many times that i cant event count.
I never seen this item drops , not only for me, but also for anyone else. Before 3 months i decide to start farming for this item.
I can truly say that it was one of my worst decisions ever!
Anyway , i read the comments here in wowhead and decide to do the Naxx 25 thrash farm. I killed first boss at Arachid and first boss at Plague area.
I clear all thrash till second boss at the quarters i mentioned before and the thrash packs at Millitairy.
In every run i killed around 200 mobs.
So finally after 3 months of almost daily farming , it dropped at my 986 run through Naxx 25.
If you count the mobs that i killed , they were around 190k.
Every run took me around 6 mins (Brewmaster monk with speed bonuses and the teleport) , so i spend around 99 hours of farming inside Naxx 25.
The toy dropped as my 32 boe rare item. Also looted these :

3 signet of edward the odd (Purple BoE)
6 wapach's spaulders of solidarity (Purple BoE)
5 Je'Tze's bell (Purple BoE)
3 sword of avool jin (Purple BoE)
4 zom's crackling bulwark (Purple BoE)
7 namlak's supernumeray sticker (Purple BoE)
3 sash of jordan (Purple BoE)

Finally i recommend to anyone that want to farm for this Toy to grab all the patience and energy they have cause its really one of the most difficult farm inside game.
Thanks for reading my post. Good luck to everyone!

Commento di ElmaSaenji

The toy dropped for me today in the Icecrown Citadel (25hc) from spiders between Valithria and Sindragosa. First time the toy dropped for my main character in WotLK so I learned it already but it dropped for my alt anyway.

Commento di Izztastic

I started farming this because the fact that it is collected by 10% of profiles on Wowhead seemed high and bothered me that I don't have it as an avid collector. Plus I have a lot of nostalgia for WotLK. Before starting, I had guessed the drop chance was ~0.01% which didn't seem too bad to obtain. However, after crunching some numbers from Wowhead drop data, I suspect the drop chance is between 0.001% and 0.002%, and more likely the lower bound than the higher.

Aggregating the drops for the 12 most-killed mobs on Wowhead at the time of this post:
Drop % = (Drops / Total Kills) = (248 / 15,031,069) = 0.00165%

I only use the 12 most-killed mobs to mitigate the bias that mobs without a recorded drop are not included on wowhead. In other words the drop percent from wowhead data is inherently upward biased for a rare world drop like this .

Any tips for those folks who obtained this toy intentionally in recent years is appreciated!

Sphere is still drops, got it today via Naxx grinding. I would like to share my system:

1) The quickest way is to grind monsters in Corona di Ghiaccio, (37,21) but you need some friends there, to make them spawn SUPER quick. And, ofc, an owl. Loot is personal so do not wait that your friend will share a toy with you. Being the quickest this way is also the most BORING, because you just stay on 1 place and click 1-2 buttons every second like a robot, and then looting corpses once per 10 minutes.
2) I found much less boring is to switch between grinding in IC and raids. So I did next: I put a druid in the IC , at 37,32. Then I leveled up 3 monks on 3 different servers, and put them near the naxx. Why 3? Because every run in Naxx is 2 minutes 9 seconds long (+- 10 seconds). And there is a 10 runs/hour/server limit so I just switch between 3 monks, doing 10 runs in naxx by each, and when the first monk has still the limit, then I switched to the druid I left in IC, and grind mobs for like 10-20 minutes.
Why monks? Because you can use teleport to cut the HUGE part of the route back, and also they are very quick (2 charges+60% speed after 2 charges+dragonflight ability).
You can take a look on the route there (not my video): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e-AUUb1YkJ0
Before I tried Pit, I tried only IC grinding, I tried Ulduar as well. I decided to take 2 more efficient (mobs/minute) ways and just did one after another.
I think the super efficient way is to use Multiboxing with like 5 accounts, but ofc its prohibited by policies now, so I would not recommend it.
Good luck and make something else in the game between farming sessions, do not forget that games should be fun!

I am pleased to confirm, this item still drops as of patch 10.0. Here is the screenshot for proof: https://ibb.co/8DCD3qM

I farmed this using the Zelota Prescelto method, which i personally believe is the best method after having tried most of them, and i will describe in detail my experience farming this and what i believe is the optimal way.

Before going into the meat of the topic, i would like to reiterate that this item drops from any max level WOTLK mob, and has the same loot chance as any other epic BoE from that expansion. This means that the most effective way to farm this is to maximise the amount of mobs you can kill in a specific amount of time. Keep also in mind that with an item this rare, percentages and drop chances are of limited assitance, as in someone extremely lucky might get this toy in a few thousand attempts, while some unlucky people reported over 250k attempts. It's just how RNG works when chances are this low. Personally, i have been relatively unlucky as it took me 177k attempts, which i think are a lot, and in the process i managed to obtain a total of 22 other epic BoE's.

WIth that out of the way, for this method i had 3 friends helping me, but you can alternatively sub 3 extra accounts (you don't need to buy DF or anything). Whatever the case, i wouldn't reccomend attempting this unless you have at the very least 2 friends (or extra accounts) willing to help you, 3 for maximum efficiency, anything more than that is pointless, as is trying to do it without any extra account/friend at all, but more on that later. Basically, what you want to do is head over to 44, 77 in Corona di Ghiaccio, and farm Zelota Prescelto mobs over and over. The thing is, once you kill these mobs they respawn in roughly 2 minutes, so the effective way to farm them is to have your friends (or extra accounts) create characters on different RP realms, move them to icecrown and using a simple whisper macro together with the addon autowhisperinvite have them invite you in turns to keep killing the mobs. That way they can be fully afk for this, as long as they don't logout. Ideally it will look something like: enter the room, stand in the middle, attack or taunt a mob on each side, and they will all come to the middle. Kill them with an aoe ability, loot. Get invited by the first friend, kill them again, loot, leave the group, get invited by the second friend, so on and so forth. I found that, since it takes roughly 2 minutes for the mobs to respawn on your original server, the sweet spot is to use 3 friends/accounts, as it will make it so that you pop back on your realm just as the mobs are respawning with little to no downtime at all. Using more is pointless because when you are killing them for the 5th time on another shard they will basically already have respawned on your server therefore gaining you no time at all.

For information, i timed myself for an hour with a different amount of friends helping me shard to different realms, and i found out that i could realiably manage:

alone, 1200 kills/hour
With 1 friend, 2200 kills/hour
With 2 friends, 3400 kills/hour
With 3 friends, 4500 kills/hour

these are of course approximate numbers, but if you are going at this solo, and you are serious about obtaining this item, i strongly reccomend considering getting the 3 extra accounts, as they will speed you up massively, regardless of the actually amount of kills it is going to take. To conclude, i believe that this is the best method because the drop chance of the Sphere is the same across all mobs that were max level back in WOTLK, just like with any other BoE, therefore, using this method you can kill roughly 3 times the amount of mobs you would do farming instanced content like Naxxramas, which would also require you to use several characters in order to avoid the hourly lockout issue.

Finally, on the positive side, i think this is also the most user friendly method for semi afk farming, as it requires minimum amount of movement required, you can even choose to not loot the mob to make it even easier, and simply check if the epic is there before going onto the next shard.

That's all from me, happy hunting, and don't give up!

I just got his while levelling my lvl 25 mage. Dropped from a trash mob in UP while in a LFD random Lich King dungeon.

Commento di Skisly

Well folks - I finally got this toy today. What an insane journey! It took me 176k kills of Zelota Presceltos.

As I was doing it without shard hopping I cleared the entire room 4000 times and waited 140 hours or 6 days for respawn.

The best class for doing it seems to be the Balance druid: stand in the middle and cast on one side Pacificazione and on the other side Fascio Solare. This way no mob is being killed and they all are coming to you.
After they arrive simply cast this macro:

/cast Sunfire
/timer clear
/run C_Timer.After(128, function() FlashClientIcon() end)
/timer play

It starts a stop watch to show you the time since your last kill. It also lets the client flash if you're on desktop and the respawn has been finished.

The toy itself is absolutely worth it - unfortunately the CD is a little long.

Edit: Of course Fuoco Solare only kills all the mobs if you have Fuoco Solare Migliorato.

It seems like with patch 10.1.5, the drop rate of this item has been drastically buffed. In a matter of two weeks of people farming Naxxramas for the new goodies, Me and 3 other guildies have had it drop, as well as a twitter user claiming they had 2 drop in one Naxxramas clear. It may just be there's just more reports of the item dropping since everyone is clearing content where the item drops again, though.

Commento di SilkCharm

Running Utgarde Pinnacle for months. Dropped today from elite in Trophy Room (the elite next to the lamp you light for Gortok Palehoof encounter). Being running Utgarde Pinnacle on alts forever and didn't even know it was a possible drop. First run since update.

Commento di Vealuna

Randomly dropped from Ingvar (Wrath Classic). Played the game for nearly 20 years and it's the first time i've ever seen it drop.

Commento di Emerno

Dropped from a Stitched Giant by Grobbulus in 25m Naxx.

Commento di Serephem

Dropped last week from a mob in the gauntlet after Noth in Naxx 25 last week, THEN dropped again on an alt on the trash before Patchwerk yesterday.

Commento di Moiraley

dropped for me today in a timewalk halls of lightning

Commento di SavageKato

Unintentionally got this out of Naxx25 today. Been running 10 alts/week farming up Lamented pieces for T3 gear. Got this in around 50 Naxx runs, skpping military wing and not full clearing trash.

Obviously you can't really judge it off of one person's drop, but I've seen others posting that they've got it in Naxx as well, so it might be a viable farming method to get both lamented pieces and this toy. Lamented pieces sell for 200k+ (get maybe 1 per 15 naxx runs) , so you can farm a bit of gold while potentially farming for the toy.

Commento di Richmond79

Got from Pit of Saron (normal) trash mobs after endless farming for some of the shared BoP drops like Titanium Links of Lore belt - so a good place to farm for more than one thing. Just ran around the main quarry and gathered every mob - one shot and then ran out and re-set without killing any bosses

Commento di Alterraia

After 15 years, not farming consistently, but running WotLK content, I finally got this to drop farming Naxx trash for T3 mats. Was never expecting to see it.

I have 39 lvl 70s, 35 of them (excluding DHs & Evokers) leveled through all the old zones before they changed leveling. I could not tell you how many kills of eligible monsters I've had over the years, but the farm I wasn't farming, is finally over.

Got it today with Naxx strat (trash after first boss Plague Quarter) after 99095 kills.

Had a DH with Onyx Annulet (Wind Sculpted Stone) to make it slightly faster running forth and back to reset.

Took me 5 months of almost daily grind.

To anyone still farming this: don't give up.
