Warcraft Mounts
@warcraftmounts
A field guide to mounts in the World of Warcraft.
The new Sunflare Driftmoth Mount should appear in your collection if you’re a 6- or 12-month subscriber. I’ll get it up on our site later today.
Warcraft Mounts is back! Thank you for your patience and sorry for the delay while we sorted out issues with the site. It's now stable once again. Thanks for your support! www.warcraftmounts.com
A reminder that the June Trading Post has a couple of really gorgeous new Sunwalker eagle mounts (plus a returning goat and cormaera). Sadly, WCM is still down, and in worse news it may be down for a couple more days. This server crash happened at the worst possible time, sadly beyond my control 😣
There are 3 mounts available in this month's Trading Post. The Pyrewood Rebel's Rouncey and Gilneas Loyalist's Rouncey (500 Tendies each) are two colours of a brand new Gilnean horse model. The gorgeous Brown-Furred Spiky Bakar is a returning woofer mount for 325 Tendies.
Week 2 of patch 12.0.5 means 3 more mounts are achievable! Unbound Manawyrm is the meta-achieve reward for completing void assaults in both ZA and Eversong. Witherbark Warbear Mother and Void-Corrupted Hex Eagle are guaranteed from special activities in the Broken Throne ritual site.
Our giveaway has now ended and the winner has been notified. Thanks to everyone who entered! It was great seeing your favourites and interesting that by far the most popular were the Magister's Spell Bee & Unbound Mana Wyrm, both gorgeous new colour variants of mounts from previous expansions.
Former Mythic+ reward mounts are available again! Also available are several previously-unused colour variants of former Mythic+ mounts. A 3400 rating grants you a Timelost Saddle which can be used to purchase 1 (currently, only 1 per season). See our guide: www.warcraftmounts.com/patch12.0.5....
Blizzard has given me one Thunder-Ridged Elekk code to give away! To enter: - Follow, like and repost. - Visit WCM's 12.0.5 mount guide: www.warcraftmounts.com/patch12.0.5.... - Reply here with a link to your favourite mount of the new patch. - Winner picked 28th of April (one week). #WoW_Partner
Here are the 14 previous keystone mounts that are likely to return. I'm guessing the earlier "challenge mode" mounts (phoenixes from Pandaria and yeti from Warlords) won't be included, and they haven't been mentioned. For links to each, see: www.warcraftmounts.com/achievement....
Finally, we have four unused shreddertank colours from The War Within! Shreddertanks were only ever used for Season 2, so there were a number of colours left over.
'Old God Ray Mount' in 2 colours. I'm uncertain how it's going to be implemented. It's in both retail and classic databases, and just decrypted in the latest Classic. So, maybe a promotional or a 💰mount?
Aprll's Trading Post debuts two new & imaginative mount models! The Arboreal Pseudoshell 'plant-snail', and Vicious Snapvine 'flytrap-vine' can be bought for 400 & 600 Trader's Tender, respectively. Two earlier mounts also return: the Spring Harvesthog for 550 Tendies, and Emerald Snail for 325.
Three mounts are also returning in March: the Pearlescent Butterfly, Ruby Butterfly (700 tendies each), and Shimmermist Free Runner (325 tendies).
It's pretty obvious that the new Midnight armoured horse is a faithful update of the original Paladin mount, which dates back to Vanilla. And it's unsurprising that it might be used as an update of that model. What was surprising was that the update was recently swapped in with little fanfare.
FEBRUARY'S TRADING POST is huge! It offers one new mount (the Cloudborn Razorwing) and eighteen returning mounts, as well as many other returning collectables, some at significant discounts! For links to all the available mounts, see our top news post: www.warcraftmounts.com
And yes, It seems there's also a pet version coming, but I'll leave those details to @warcraftpets.bsky.social
Have you completed Turbulent Timeways IV yet? You still have a few weeks (ends 03 Feb). Which mount did/will you pick for your reward? I grabbed the Bronze Corpsefly because I always loved that model! The others can be purchased during SL Timewalking weeks for 5k badges each.
The Feast of Winter Veil is upon us! You have a low chance of obtaining this Rudolph-themed armour set for your Highland Drake from a 'Stolen Present' loot box. This box is awarded by completing the daily quest "You're a Mean One...", given in Orgrimmar and Ironforge.
December's Trading Post is upon us! (still a few hours for Americas/Oce). There are three mounts this month: 🆕Monthly bonus: Jeweled Sapphire Scarab! 🆕The Kalu'ak Crest-Horn (500 tendies) ➡️The Soaring Sky Fox (750 tendies) is new to the Trading Post but was previously part of a Shop bundle.
Burning Crusade Classic Anniversary Edition Upgrade Packs offer two new mounts: the Starspark Netherdrake and Cobalt Phase-Hunter, as well as two companion pets, a hearthstone toy, and a set of equivalent items for Classic.
Legion Remix Phase 3 has begun, unlocking 6 more mounts on Hemet Nesingwary. All 6 already exist, but they have an easier source while Remix is active since 20k Bronze is easier to farm than their original sources. For a full Remix mount list, see our guide: www.warcraftmounts.com/patch11.2.5....
Actually, there are 5 new mounts added in Remix phase 2. Bonesteed of Bloodshed, Bonesteed of Oblivion, Bonesteed of Plague, Bonesteed of Triumph, Arcberry Manasaber. For some reason our lists say they were added in phases 1 or 4 and I’m not sure I can correct the issue while travelling. Sorry.
Remix brings a huge no. of new mounts, & also adds easier sources for rare old Legion ones. For full tables of mounts by source, please see our guide. If your collection is up to date it’ll also indicate which you own & how much Bronze you need for the rest: www.warcraftmounts.com/patch11.2.5....
Now we just need a red and a yellow to complete the mrrainbow.
The October Trading Post brings three mounts: one the monthly (free!) bonus, one new sale mount, and a returning sale mount. So, if you like to collect mounts and have the previous purchase then there's only one that will cost Tendies this month.
Going back over TWW mounts and I just realised this shalehorn mount model was never used, not even for one of its five colours! I wonder what the original intent for it was.
Collector's Bounty ends in just over a day! I hope you got everything you were hoping for. How did you go? At the start I had 16 possible mounts to try for, and ended up getting 14. The average drop rate for me was quite a bit lower than 5% but I'm still pretty happy with all I got.
I apologise that mount collection updating is currently not working. There were changes to Blizzard's servers over a day ago that required changes on our end. Something isn't quite right yet and I'm still troubleshooting it. I'll have it back as soon as I can.
