[How To] Find the Time-Lost Proto Drake

Okay, first off people are gonna say repost blah blah, im trying to give a more detailed way to find it, been a leecher too long even though i hardly use this site.
Mob and mount info:
Time-Lost Proto Drake Is a rare spawn in The Storm Peeks that drops Reins of the Time-Lost Proto-Drake, witch is a cool mount. BE PREPARED TO SPEND ALOT OF TIME! i got this after 2 months of farming 12 hours a day.
How to find it:
The easyest way is to use a macro this is my personal macro that i use but there are many different forms of it.

/tar time
/tar Vyragosa
/tar dirkee
/stopmacro [noexists]
/run RaidNotice_AddMessage(RaidBossEmoteFrame,"There it is!", ChatTypeInfo["RAID_WARNING"])
/script PlaySoundFile("Sound\\interface\\RaidWarning.wav")

Where to find it:
There are four color coded routes that The Time-Lost Proto Drake follows, The black spots are the best places where you can "sit" and wait. The black spots are for mostly those who want to use the AFK method.

Great place to go AFK no noise some ocasional feet stomps, but 3 paths cross this place.

The most probable place for the drake to spawn is here.

Cheats:
I have made a simple auto-it for those who want to semi cheat there is another one around, but the poster seams to have abandoned the post.
Here is the link UNCOMPILED VERSION IN AI COMPILED VERSION
Easy to setup just keybind your macro to 1 and press "HOME" if you want to exit it. Find a place where there is no extra noise and turn your volume all the way up so you can hear the raid warning if you are sleeping or what ever.
For those who want to know how it works its simple

HotkeySet("{HOME}","_end")
Func _end()
Exit 0
EndFunc
$var1 = 0
$var2 = 0
$var3 = 0
$var4 = 0
$var5 = 0
While 1
$delay = Random(1000,3000)
Sleep($delay)
Send("1")
Wend
Exit

Witch basically spams 1 every 1-3 seconds.
Other things to watch out for while you are hunting:
Dirkee-Spawns around the Terrance, Not very easy to kill but drops some nice gold.
Vyragosa-Replaces the spot of The Time-Lost Proto drake, i would NOT say it shares a spawn timer since my own kill was merely 2 hours from the last vyragosa kill.

Other:
When the server resets the spawn timers n ect ARE NOT affected.
This drake tends to spawn in the x:20 or x:50 minute ranges.

Last at not least please let me know if i can do anything to help make this post more informing, this is my first real post critisism is welcome.

Nice post. Really want this mount and that AFK Auto-It method seems really nice. Although the raid warning sound would probably scare the shit out of me in the middle of the night haha

this was pretty helpful concerning places to sit and wait for it to spawn.

The devil has a bullet with his name on it.

lol. all cheats are technically bannable but in this case, i would say no, there is no way i can think of them detecting you unless you stand still for about 6hours at a time without moving and not going afk. Use your common sence in other words.

Useful post might have to sit on one of those spots while watching a film and hopefully I'll get lucky.

You can always go into interface and turn off auto afk remove. This way you can type /afk and when teh Auto-it spams your hotkey it wont remove your afk
