How Many Pet Charms? 10k?

The new Shadowlands patch, 9.1, is now on the PTR and we have a list of some new battle pets which will be coming in that patch.  There are 45 listed so far in the journal and the most notable of these is the Flawless Amethyst Baubleworm which is listed as costing 10,000 Polished Pet Charms.  That is A LOT!  I am sure I have never even collected that many in total before.  The pet looks quite cool but my goodness it costs a lot, and it's not even unique.  There are three other Baubleworms listed, Turquoise Baubleworm, Topaz Baubleworm and Ruby Baubleworm.  These three pets are listed as costing three different grey items each, which some people have commented will mean they have to turn off their automatic junk selling addons :)  All four Baubleworms will be sold by a vendor in Oribos.

In preparation, I thought I would try and get the 10,000 pet charms before patch 9.1 arrives.  You can get the pet charms from Shadowlands pet world quests, Shadowlands command table, BFA pet world quests and the BFA mission table.  I didn't think that you could do the world quests on multiple characters but looking at it again today you can, although some of my alts do not seem to have them unlocked in BFA and only three are levelled for Shadowlands.  I will not be able to do every quest every day but time allowing, lets see how long it takes.

I will also have a look at the grey items required for the other three baubleworms and see if can also acquire them.  They are:

In other pet related news for patch 9.1 the limit to the number of pets you can have is to be removed. You can still only have three of each pet, still annoying when there are four different colours of the  OOX-35/MG mechanical chicken from Mechagon, but the total number of pets will have no limit up from a maximum of 2000 at the moment.  However it does not look like we will get any refunds for the pet portals that we have already purchased which previously increased the total number of pets allowed, first up to 1500 and then to 2000, and those cost 1000 pet charms each.  Come on Blizzard a refund would be nice and would help towards the 10,000 needed for the new pet, come on...please!

Good luck if you are also going for this and I will keep you updated with how I am getting on.  Happy pet charm collecting.
