It took me 2 days and several hours of internet searches and in-game running around to get this achievement because firstly, it’s bugged and secondly, there was no updated information that I could find on the internet.
I originally played this game in 2011 for about a year and a bit before taking an extended break. Recently returning to the game, I was greeted with new systems and many changes. It’s to be expected but I was very disappointed to have lost some unique items that I had spent time acquiring.
There’s a new achievement system and everything I had done previously never counted so now I have to start over if I want to gain the achievements.
The only helpful info was from a random post by Darth_Wicked in March 2015 on the SWTOR community forums:
“I keep getting the Codex entry for the Wingmaw in Balmorra, for both factions. There are plenty of them when you're on your way to the Balmorran Arms Factory. Empire-side, they're called Raving Darkpyre or something.”
What was also confusing was various posts claiming that the Wingmaws were in certain areas without explaining that the areas differ for Empire vs Republic.
To help others get around this bug, I’ve posted a short video showing how to get it. Take note that this guide only shows you where to get the Wingmaw and not the other beasts that form part of the achievement.
You can watch the video here:
You can also follow this guide:
This achievement can be completed by Republic and Empire characters.
- Scavenging Wingmaw Level 33 (Republic – Light Side)
- Ravenous Darkpyre Level 18-19 (Empire – Dark-side)
This achievement is bugged. To get the Wingmaw completed for the Beastmaster of Tython you will need to travel to Balmorra.
For Empire Character:
1) Go with a level 15+ Empire character to Balmorra from the fleet ship or your own ship
2) Travel to the Sundari Imperial Outpost
3) Run right (north-east) along the road and just past the barricade head up (north), find the Ravenous Darkpyres and kill one to get the Wingmaw Codex
For Republic Character:
1) Go with a level 30+ Republic character to Balmorra from the fleet ship or your own ship
2) Travel to the Gorinth Imperial Outpost Skyhopper
3) Run left (south-west) along the road and just past the bridge look ahead, find the Scavenging Wingmaws and kill one to get the Wingmaw Codex
Hope this helps!
