Mountain o' Mounts: A Guide to Collecting Mounts
Live

par
perculia
Last week, we covered all pets in the game, in anticipation of
La petite boutique des mascottes
. This week, we’ll do the same for mounts and outline some easy ways to collect 100. With the split opinions regarding the recent
Gardien ailé
, it's clear players care about their mounts.
Warcraft Mounts
offers detailed info on each mount, as well a way to track your mount collection. You can also use Wowhead's profiler to track which pets you've collected, and out of the remaining ones, which you're interested in still getting. Our friends at
WoW Insider
also have achievement-themed articles dedicated to obtaining mounts. We've provided some tips on how to acquire all the mounts, from the easy ones to the challenging ones, below. (Note: currency prices listed are the full non-discounted cost. Players Exalted with factions or benefitting from
may save gold on some mounts.) You can also get seven of these mounts from the
Sacoche des mystères exotiques
, but it's a very small chance plus you have to be the right class/role in order to be eligible in the first place.
Here are all of the mount-related achievements thus far. There's nothing new added in for 4.2, but there will probably be some new achievements in a future patch, if the new pet achievements are any indication.
Gardien d'écuries
: Obtain 10 Mounts.
L'écurie se remplit
: Obtain 25 Mounts.
À la tête de la cavalerie
: Obtain 50 Mounts. (Reward:
Rênes de drake albinos
)
Une montagne de montures
/
Une montagne de montures
: Obtain 100 Mounts. (Reward:
Faucon-dragon bleu
/
Faucon-dragon rouge
)
Ground Mounts
At the Argent Tournament in Icecrown, players complete daily quests to unlock rewards from their respective factions. When you become a Champion of a particular race, you can purchase additional pets and mounts from that vendor. Players can purchase 7 faction-specific ground mounts. Most of the mounts look like those you ride while completing the jousting dailies: home-city mounts in unexpected colors. A level 85 should have no problem doing these daily quests; you'll need to do quite a few anyway to finish
Une juste récompense
. Along the way, you'll most likely get Ambassador. If you are changing factions and halfway through the Argent Tournament, buy as much as you can because the entire process will be reset when you switch. It will take you 725
Sceau de champion
and roughly 43 days to complete this mount collection, if you've already gotten the Crusader title, meaning you're guaranteed 17
Sceau de champion
per day from quests.
If you want to learn more about the Argent Tournament, we've got a guide here
here
.
The following mounts cost and 5
Sceau de champion
. For all other races besides your character's own faction, you will need to be exalted in order to purchase these mounts, as well as a Champion of that race. To increase reputation, you can buy tabards from capital cities, as well as commendation badges such as
Ecusson de mérite des Pitons-du-Tonnerre
for
Commission de champion
, if you're deep into Tournament dailies.
Alliance:
Grand elekk rouge
,
Palefroi gris rapide
,
Sabre-de-lune rapide
,
Bélier pourpre rapide
,
Turbotrotteur
.
Horde:
Grand kodo doré
,
Loup bordeaux rapide
,
Raptor violet rapide
,
Faucon-pérégrin rouge rapide
,
Cheval de guerre squelette blanc
.
Five additional mounts for each faction are purchased for 100
Sceau de champion
, meaning you'll have to do a fair amount of dailies.
Alliance:
Sabre-de-nuit darnassien
,
Elekk de l'Exodar
,
Mécanotrotteur de Gnomeregan
,
Bélier de Forgefer
,
Palefroi de Hurlevent
.
Horde:
Raptor sombrelance
,
Cheval de guerre des Réprouvés
,
Loup d'Orgrimmar
,
Faucon-pérégrin de Lune-d'Argent
,
Kodo des Pitons-du-Tonnerre
.
Players exalted with
Concordat argenté
/
Saccage-Soleil
will have additional vendors unlocked; those who have completed
Le confident argenté
/
Les Saccage-Soleil
will have additional Argent Tournament dailies unlocked. Respective faction vendors sell
Palefroi quel'dorei
/
Faucon-pérégrin saccage-soleil
for 100
Sceau de champion
.
Both factions can purchase
Cheval de guerre d'Argent
for 100
Sceau de champion
, obtainable after completing
Champion d'Argent exalté de l'Alliance
/
Champion d'Argent exalté de la Horde
.
Death Knights, Paladins, and Warlocks get lucky with several class-only mounts that they can learn from class-trainers. Sorry druids, epic flight form doesn't count towards the mount total.
Death Knights:
Destrier de la mort d'Achérus
, a reward from
Dans le royaume des ombres
in the DK starting zone.
Paladins:
Destrier d'Argent
is purchased at the Argent Tournament for 100
Sceau de champion
. At level 20, dwarf and human paladins learn how to
Invocation : cheval de guerre
and at level 40,
Destrier
: blood elf paladins have a unique red version of this mount. In the past, you were required to complete fun quests to obtain these mounts, but now they are learned from trainers. Draenei and Tauren paladins have their own special mounts reflecting the lore of their race: for Draenei, it's
Invocation : elekk d'exarque
and
Invocation : elekk de grand exarque
, for Tauren it's
Invocation : kodo marche-soleil
and
Invocation : grand kodo marche-soleil
.
Warlocks:
Palefroi corrompu
, trained at level 20, and
Destrier de l’effroi
, trained at level 40, are awesome demonic horses with fiery hooves. The
Dreadsteed
used to require an epic quest chain to complete; it's no longer completable and players who obtained it the hard way get
Destrier de l'effroi de Xoroth
.
The revamped Darkmoon Faire in 4.3 introduced two new mounts:
While the droprates on these mounts may seem frustrating, all are easily farmable and we'll show you how.
Vanilla
There are three easy mounts and one rare mount to farm from Ahn'Qiraj. When the instance was first released, players had to obtain bug mounts that dropped from trash because normal mounts did not work in this long instance. The
Cristal de résonance qiraji bleu
,
Cristal de résonance qiraji vert
, and
Cristal de résonance qiraji jaune
drop quite frequently, while
Cristal de résonance qiraji rouge
is so rare, it has its own achievement:
Pourquoi ? Parce que !!!
. Even if you can't find a group to clear the instance, you could probably get a few friends and keep reclearing the initial respawning trash.
Rênes de destrier de la mort
, once one of the rarest mounts in the game, drops from
Seigneur Aurius Vaillefendre
. It's the only undead pony model all races can use. This instance is extremely easy to solo at 85--try making a game out of it to see how fast you can clear it out. Rivendare can also drop
Lame runique du baron Vaillefendre
for a fun bonus.
Burning Crusade
Rênes de cheval de guerre embrasé
drops from
Attumen le Veneur
, the first boss in Karazhan, awarding the achievement
Rênes de cheval de guerre embrasé
. It's very easy to solo the handful of trash packs and Attumen--you need to kill the trash because the boss will aggro it all. Engineers will also be interested in
Schéma : Lunette en éternium stabilisé
.
Faucon-pérégrin blanc rapide
drops from
Kael’thas Haut-Soleil
on Heroic difficulty
Terrasse des Magistères
. A level 70 instance, this is again easy to solo with some self-healing abilities. Farming this instance can also reward you with
Orbe des Sin'dorei
,
Jeune phénix
, several rare recipes, and blood-elf themed gear like
Robe sin'dorei écarlate
.
Rênes du seigneur corbeau
drops from
Anzu
in heroic
Les salles des Sethekk
. It was soloable at level 80; it should be even easier at 85. Currently, druids are not required to summon Anzu so all classes have access to the boss--it used to be a boss only druids could summon after doing a long series of quests to obtain epic flight form. Awards the achievement
Rênes du seigneur corbeau
.
Wrath
Rênes de grand mammouth de guerre noir
is a rare drop and 3-seater mount from any of the four bosses in the
Caveau d’Archavon
. The source of much grief in VoA pugs, it's not a bad idea to get a few friends and try farming this mount every week at 85. Awards the achievement
Grand mammouth de guerre noir
.
Cataclysm
Ours de bataille amani
is a reward anyone in the party can roll on for completing a timed run in Zul'Aman. We've got a guide on how to successfully complete the bear run
here
.
Two mounts were removed when old Zul'Gurub was taken out of the game; two new mounts are introduced in the new Zul'Gurub:
Raptor razzashi cuirassé
is a red raptor that drops from
Seigneur sanglant Mandokir
and
Panthère zulienne rapide
is a dark unarmored saber cat from
Grande prêtresse Kilnara
. It's entirely possible to farm these two bosses each day with friends-you can skip most of the trash to get to them, and generally win a BoE along the way.
Seasonal
During
Fête des Brasseurs
, players have a small chance to receive
Bélier rapide de la fête des Brasseurs
or
Grand kodo de la fête des Brasseurs
inside
Coffre au trésor en forme de tonneau
after defeating
Coren Navrebière
for the first time each day.
Archéologie
,
Ingénierie
, and
Pêche
offer unique mounts.
Archaeology
:
Raptor fossilisé
is generally one of the first rare solves players stumble upon. It takes 100
Fragment archéologique fossile
to complete from fossil digsites around Azeroth. In contrast,
Char d'assaut qiraji bleu marine
from
Sceptre d'Azj'Aqir
is one of the most frustrating solves to acquire--it's from Tol'vir digsites, which are accessible only in Uldum after 450 skill. Players report burning through dozens of solves before coming across this mount, which is a pity, as it's the only currently-obtainable bug mount one can use outside of Ahn Qiraj.
Engineers exalted with
Expédition de la Bravoure
/
Expédition de la Horde
from quests and spillover dungeon rep in Wrath can learn how to craft the BoE
Bécane de mekgénieur
/
Mécabécane
. The pattern is fairly pricey to acquire and even worse to craft. Players wanting a mount will have to save up just for the vendor-only parts. It's definitely a fun mount though; the detailing on it is amazing, it carries two players, and grants
T'as vu ma bécane !
.
Tortue de mer
can be fished up in any Northrend or Cataclysm pools. It's extremely rare and grants
À la pêche à la tortue
. The charm about this mount is that while it's slow on land, it's extremely speedy in water, scaling up to 300% swim speed.
While PvP may be offputting to some, the Justice to Honor Point conversion means you should be able to purchase some of the following mounts without stepping foot in a battleground.
The following mounts are purchasable from capital cities, for 2000
. Keep in mind that you are capped at 4000
. It was worse in the past: you were required to turn in specific battleground marks to purchase them, and before that, you had to achieve a high rank in the old PvP system. These mounts are dark and heavily-armored versions of the traditional ones sold in capital cities.
Alliance, from
Lieutenant Karter
:
Trotteur de bataille noir
,
Bélier de guerre noir
,
Bride de palefroi de guerre noir
,
Rênes d'elekk de guerre noir
,
Rênes de tigre de guerre noir
.
Horde, from
Chevaucheur Bork
:
Kodo de guerre noir
,
Cor du loup de guerre noir
,
Cheval de guerre squelette rouge
,
Faucon de guerre rapide
,
Sifflet du raptor de guerre noir
.
Halaa, a PvP zone in the center of Nagrand, is the key to two unique talbuks:
Rênes de talbuk de guerre sombre
and
Rênes de talbuk de monte sombre
. These require a mix of
Gage de bataille de Halaa
and
Gage de recherche de Halaa
to purchase, obtained by killing the opposition in Halaa and looting
Echantillon de poudre de cristal d'Oshu'gun
respectively. These mounts are incredibly difficult to get now because of the lack of PvP in Outlands currently. However, they are in a vivid dark shade not available elsewhere.
Rênes d'ours de guerre noir
is a reward mailed to you upon completing
Pour l’Alliance !
/
Pour la Horde !
. It's very easy to find a pug in trade chat working on these achievements, especially if you attack at off-hours.
Destrier de bataille foudrepique
/
Cor du hurleur loup-de-givre
used to require exalted with
Garde Foudrepique
/
Clan Loup-de-Givre
to purchase; now it simply costs 2000
, although you can only buy it from the Alterac Valley quartermasters. This is a mount many vanilla players remember fondly as the first custom item they obtained.
In
Joug-d’Hiver
, the quartermasters sell
Rênes de mammouth de guerre noir
for 2000
. It's a large dark mammoth with red armor. Just make sure your faction controls the zone, or else you won't be able to purchase it.
Players exalted with
Gardiens de Baradin
/
Poing de Hurlenfer
can purchase these faction-specific mounts:
Rênes de palefroi spectral
/
Rênes de loup spectral
for 165
Recommandation de Tol Barad
.
New to 4.2 are rewards for winning Rated Battlegrounds. / are a reward for completing 75 RBGs in the patch. (At subsequent further levels, you'll receive an identical BoA mount that you can send to more alts.) With the changes to Conquest Points requiring players to do RBGs to cap, hopefully it will be easier to find an RBG group in the patch.
Many reputations offer mounts as vendor rewards. You'll get a large chunk of your mount total completed by raising your reputation with the following factions.
Vanilla
Raising your reputation with all of the playable races will net you a large amount of mounts. You can purchase mounts at any reputation level with your home faction, but need exalted to buy mounts from other races. Quests and city tabards can speed up reputation gains a fair amount. In the past, rare-quality mounts moved only at 60% speed--this has changed, so you can use the simpler models once again. Unfortunately, since Worgen have
Ventre à terre
instead of a mount, the Alliance is at a slight mount disadvantage. All rare mounts cost and all epic mounts cost before discounts.

A major part of Nagrand is the reputation grind to acquire talbuk mounts from the
Kurenaï
and the

which look like the wild talbuks roaming the zone. The riding talbuks aren't armored and cost , while the war talbuks have some armor and cost . They are sold by

Wrath
When coming across
Fils de Hodir
for shoulder enchants in The Storm Peaks, you'll discover they sell mounts as well:
Rênes de mammouth des glaces
for at Honored and
Rênes de grand mammouth des glaces
, a three-seater mount, for at Exalted. For purchasing these mounts, you get achievements as well.
Cataclysm
Forgeron Abasi
sells
Rênes de dromadaire brun
and
Rênes de dromadaire fauve
for players exalted with
Ramkahen
in Uldum.
One of the most well-known reputation grinds, recently changed, is for the
Rênes de sabre-de-givre de Berceau-de-l'Hiver
. Together with the Horde-equivalent,
Sifflet du ravasaure peau-de-venin
, players complete dailies for roughly a month that tend to baby animals, and are rewarded with a unique mount.
In Cataclysm, guild reputation and rewards were added. Guilds that have achieved
Niveau de guilde 25
unlock
Rênes du roi doré
/
Rênes d'annihilateur kor'kron
for and Exalted reputation.
You don't need these mounts to push you over the edge for your achievement, but they've got some fun models. They range in price from $60-$700; something for everyone.
The following ground mounts are BoE once redeemed--you can get lucky on the AH and find them. (I've found six!)
Grand ours de bataille
is a reward from The Red Bearon card in the Drums of War series. There are several other bear mounts with similar styles and animations, but this one stands out for its dark body and simple armor.
Œuf de poulet magique
is a reward from the El Pollo Grande card in the Fields of Honor series. It sounds like a chicken but has the animations of a blood elf hawkstrider. It is a very fast chicken that does wonders for your epeen!
Rhinocéros laineux blanc
is a reward from the Wooly White Rhino card in the Icecrown series. It has the skeleton and animations of a kodo but looks like a massive rhino found in The Storm Peaks.
Obtaining the code for the Spectral Tiger card in the Fires of Outlands series will net you the two best mounts in the game:
Rênes de tigre spectral rapide
and
Rênes de tigre spectral
, reskinned nightsabers with ghostly textures. Originally, they ran at different speeds, but that's been normalized in Cataclysm. The rare-quality mount looks nearly the same but has slightly less armor on the feet--it tends to sell for much less on the AH, so keep an eye out.
The following ground mounts are BoP once redeemed--you will not be able to find these on the AH.
Grand ours du Blizzard
was a present for attending BlizzCon 2008. It's a BoA polar bear with a flag-waving murloc sitting on its head.
Raptor sauvage
is a new reward from War of the Elements, a dark orange raptor. It's one of the few ways Alliance get to ride a raptor mount--only other way is to try your luck in ZG.
Tortue de monte
is a reward from the Saltwater Snapjaw card in Heroes of Azeroth. This is a favorite item among twinks as any level can use it. The turtle moves extremely slow, but as the item says "it gets you off your feet."
New
is a drop in 4.2 from
Alysrazor
in Firelands: it's a flaming Anzu and looks awesome.
Quests
Rênes de destrier de la mort cramoisi
is a reward for completing
Réunir les Mograine
after a player has completed
Deuillelombre
and looted the one-time only
Coffre scellé
from
Le roi-liche
. It's a BoE mount that looks like Mograine's mount, a reddish deathknight mount.
Rênes d'ours polaire blanc
can be looted from
Butin hyldnir
, a reward for completing dailies from
Gretta la Médiatrice
in Brunnhildar Village. You will have to complete half of The Storm Peaks to unlock these daily quests.
Rare
Rênes de dromadaire gris
is a guaranteed drop from
Dormus le Collectionneur de dromadaires
. To reach this NPC, you will have to get lucky opening up
Figurine de dromadaire mystérieuse
that randomly spawn in Uldum. There's a large chance you'll find junk, but a very small chance the figurine will port you to the NPC. Rewards
Cribleur des sables éternels
.
Vendor
Mei Francis
in Dalaran sells several unique ground mounts:
Rênes d'ours brun cuirassé
for ,
Rênes de mammouth laineux
for 2175
Points de justice
, and
Rênes de mammouth de voyage de la toundra
for . You'll make a fair amount of gold back because this mount is not only a three-seater, but one that comes with its own vendors so you can sell junk as you quest.
Inséparable rapide
appears to be purchasable with 270 tokens in the new Love is in the Air holiday.
Trotteur printanier rapide
is purchasable during the new Noblegarden.
Sadly, the following mounts are no longer available in-game for various reasons. Some unarmored mounts were removed in early vanilla, replaced by mounts with bulkier armor. Other mounts are tied to achievements removed from the game.
In early vanilla, mounts with little armor were available to players from their home cities. This was changed in 2005 because it was thought that the slow and fast mounts looked too similar. The handful of players with these original mounts were invited to turn their old mounts in for one of the new ones, in quests like
Un nouveau sabre-de-givre
, but many realized the rarity of their mounts and did not. Players who held onto these mounts were rewarded with
Monture de la vieille école
. They are:
Rênes d'ancien sabre-de-givre
,
Rênes de sabre-de-nuit
,
Bélier noir
,
Bélier de givre
,
Kodo vert
,
Mécanotrotteur bleu clair modèle A
,
Sifflet de raptor ivoire
,
Sifflet de raptor rouge tacheté
,
Cor du loup rouge
,
Kodo bleu
,
Mécanotrotteur blanc modèle B
,
Bride d'étalon blanc
,
Cor du loup arctique
.
Because it was felt that these achievements would be cheesed in later tiers with too much gear, the following Wrath instance mounts were removed:
Cheval de guerre blanc de croisé
/
Cheval de guerre noir de croisé
for completing
Une offrande à l'immortalité
and
Palefroi rapide de l'Alliance
/
Loup rapide de la Horde
for
Une offrande à la démence (10 joueurs)
. Other Wrath instance mounts were kept in the game, but these for some strange reason were not.
Ours de guerre amani
was the reward for completing the original 10-player version of Zul'Aman in BC. It looks similar to the current bear mount, but with a stronger reddish tint.
Tigre zulien rapide
and
Raptor razzashi rapide
dropped in old Zul'Gurub. It's a shame they're removed--the new mounts in Zul'Gurub just aren't as colorful.
Cristal de résonance qiraji noir
was rewarded to any player who rang the gong in the first 10 hours after Ahn'Qiraj was opened. This was the result of completing a truly epic questline, memorialized in
Vétéran des Sables changeants
.
Zhévra rapide
was a promotional reward for participating in the Recruit-A-Friend program. It has since been replaced with a flying mount.
Bélier de la fête des Brasseurs
was the original Brewfest mount from 2007 and popular because low-levels could ride it. It's since been discontinued--there's a similar ram model, but the methods of obtaining it are quite different.
Flying Mounts
These mounts are rewards for completing complex achievements--you will find them in the mail, along with a fun note from a major lore figure thanking you for your hard work.
Rênes de drake du vent d'Est
is a reward for completing the t11 meta,
Gloire à l'écumeur de raids du Cataclysme
. This meta achievement requires you to defeat every hardmode except
Sinestra : mode héroïque
, as well as complete specific achievements related to every boss. As of now, these drakes are difficult to obtain and Blizzard has not stated they are being removed--so organizing achievement runs later in t12 may be feasible for more players. As it is,
Amateur de frissons
is incredibly difficult to coordinate.
Rênes de drake de pierre volcanique
is a reward for completing the Cataclysm dungeon meta,
Gloire au héros du Cataclysme
. It's a blue stone drake with hot pink accents. This drake is fairly easy to complete now and working on the meta grants a ton of achievement points.
Rênes de phénix sombre
is unlocked and obtainable from Guild Vendors upon completing
Gloire à l'écumeur de raids de Cataclysm en guilde
. It looks like the (less cool) purple version of
Al'ar
and costs .
Rênes de drake albinos
is a reward from
À la tête de la cavalerie
; a white drake with light blue accents and tan wings.
Rênes de vainqueur couvegivre baigné de sang
is a reward for completing
Gloire à l'écumeur de raids de la Couronne de glace (10 joueurs)
and
Rênes de vainqueur couvegivre lié aux glaces
for completing
Gloire à l'écumeur de raids de la Couronne de glace (25 joueurs)
. Both of these mounts are skeletal drakes with fun details like earrings and unique armor. The metas require players to complete all hardmodes save for
Le roi-liche
as well as achievements specific to each boss. Formerly tricky achievements like
Tout ce que vous pouvez rafler (25 joueurs)
should be trivial at 85.
Rênes de proto-drake rouillé
is a reward for completing
Gloire à l'écumeur de raids d’Ulduar (10 joueurs)
and
Rênes de proto-drake bardé de fer
is a reward for completing
Gloire à l'écumeur de raids d’Ulduar (25 joueurs)
. These mounts are reminiscent of
Tranchécaille
, Thorim's mount who was captured by Loken. They require players to complete all hardmodes (save for
Dans la nuit noire (10 joueurs)
and
On nous observe (10 joueurs)
) and annoying achievements like
Un Nain de fer bien cuit, s'il vous plaît ! (25 joueurs)
.
Rênes de proto-drake pourpre
is a reward for completing the holiday meta,
Voyages au bout du monde
. This used to be the only way one could obtain a 310% mount outside of arena or raiding. It requires players to constantly work on holiday achievements, dealing with RNG and PvP whether they like it or not. Along the way, you'll collect a lot of fun pets, titles, and achievement points though.
As covered earlier,
Faucon-dragon bleu
/
Faucon-dragon rouge
are rewards for completing
Mountain O'Mounts
.
New to 4.2 is
Œuf corrompu de Millagazor
, a reward for completing the t12 dungeon meta.
Burning Crusade
Cendres d'Al'ar
, one of the most coveted mounts in the game, is a rare drop from
Kael’thas Haut-Soleil
in
Donjon de la Tempête
. It's a flaming phoenix dedicated to the memory of Ezra Chatterton, a sick child that visited Blizzards offices with the Make-A-Wish foundation's help. Ezra has since passed away but he lives on in the tributes Blizzard created to him. Sadly, this mount has caused tons of ninja-looting and poor behavior since its implementation. Currently, some classes can solo
Kael
while other players can defeat it with a handful of players. You don't need to kill the other bosses in the instance to activate
Kael
.
Wrath
Tête de Mimiron
used to be a guaranteed drop from 0-light
Yogg-Saron
, requiring you to defeat the encounter without the assistance and buffs of the Keepers. It was changed to a low drop in Cataclysm. Guilds trying to complete
Val'anyr, le marteau des anciens rois
for vanity and fun each week should consider doing this encounter as well. Phases 2 and 3 would especially be a zerg and negate some of the level 80 mechanics. This mount is a flying helicopter head, part-absurdity and part-based in Ulduar's Norse lore. There's tons of gadgets and dials inside the cockpit.
Rênes d'Invincible
, once a guaranteed drop from
Le roi-liche
on 25-player heroic difficulty, was changed to be a rare drop in Cataclysm. The mount represents Arthas' faithful horse, whose death affected Arthas greatly. When transformed into The Lich King, Arthas raised the horse from the dead. The mount players receive is an undead flying pony with tons of intricate details on its body and armor. For getting this mount now, your best bet is to team up with some interested players going for achievements,
Deuillelombre
, or meta-drakes. If you're not careful and take pugs,
Profanation
could wipe you quickly still in phase 2.
Rênes de proto-drake rouge
is a reward for completing
Gloire au héros
, which should be easy to accomplish at 85 with a few friends. You'll get tons of achievement points along the way.
As covered in the TCG section, looks quite similar to a loot-card reward. However, you can get this mount for free if you stick with your Molten Front dailies. The hippogryph model with fire accents is definitely one of my favorite models in the game--while I prefer the darker and less-armored version, I'm very excited to see that Blizzard has included an accessible version as well.
Rênes de proto-drake bleu
drops from
Skadi le Brutal
on Heroic mode, the third boss in
Cime d’Utgarde
. This can be easily soloable by most classes, with the first two bosses skippable with stealth-like abilities. For the first part of the fight, you will need to kill a gauntlet of mobs that continue to spawn two at a time until his mount
Grauf
is shot down by three harpoons. When you kill the mobs in the gauntlet, some drop clickable harpoons that can be shot up to damage
Grauf
at specific times in the encounter, before he flies down the entire gauntlet to breathe ice on one side of it. For the second part of this fight, simply dps
Skadi
and run away when he does
Tourbillon
.
Rênes de drake bronze
drops from the
Corrupteur infini
, available on Heroic mode only, in
L’Épuration de Stratholme
. You have 25 minutes to reach this boss, who disappears after that period of time. It was easy to achieve right after Wrath came out; should be extremely easy to do with some friends now. The
Infinite Corruptor
drops one mount, which everyone in the group can roll on, regardless of flying skill.
Rênes de drake onyxien
drops from the new version of
Onyxia
, added in Wrath. This is a brown-and-purple mount that looks very similar to
Onyxia
herself. It's a very rare drop and on top of that, you can only try for it once a week.
Rênes de drake azur
is a brilliant blue drake that is found in
Cadeau d'Alexstrasza
from
Malygos
on both 10- and 25- player difficultly. You can reliably farm this mount with several friends once per week, and if you are a hunter, can solo the 10-player version, as described in Wowhead comments.
Rênes de drake noir
is a guaranteed drop from 10-player
Sartharion
with all three mini-boss drakes left alive, granting
Les Chroniques des crépusculaires (10 joueurs)
. You can easily zerg this in a minute with a few 85s now.
Rênes de drake bleu
, which used to be a reward in
Cache du Gardien-tellurique
to encourage players to stay in pug
L’Oculus
runs, was returned to 10-player
Malygos
in Cataclysm when running Wrath heroics became obsolete. It's both possible to see the
Blue Drake
and
Azure Drake
drop at once.
Rênes de drake du Crépuscule
is a guaranteed drop from 25-player
Sartharion
with 3 mini-boss drakes left alive. You'll need a few more players than you did for the 10-player version, but this too is zergable with a handful of friends.
Cataclysm
Rênes de drake du vent du Nord
drops from
Altairus
in The Vortex Pinnacle on both normal and heroic mode. The good news is that players can infinitely farm this mount on normal mode--classes like hunters can use
to bypass the trash; killing only the second boss won't save you to the instance. The trick to defeating this boss is getting high uptime on
Vent ascendant d'Altairus
and negating
with cooldowns.
Rênes de drake du vent du Sud
has a 1% droprate from the
Cœur du vent
tied to defeating
Al'Akir
on both normal and heroic difficulty. It's slightly more vivid than the North drake.
Rênes de drake de pierre vitrifiée
is a greenish drake that drops from
Peau-de-Pierre
, the second boss in The Stonecore, on normal and heroic difficulty. This too is soloable by some classes, with helpful tips in Wowhead comments.
Slabhide's
trick is that he periodically drops some
Fissure de lave
, breathes
Explosion de sable
on the tank, and flies up to drop
Stalactite
.
New to 4.2 is
Œuf fumant de Millagazor
, a drop from
Ragnaros
that's guaranteed on Heroic and very low on Normal.
Expérience 12-B
looks like Gyth from UBRS and drops from
Ultraxion
in Normal and Heroic diffculty.
Suivante de la Lieuse-de-Vie
is a guaranteed heroic drop from Madness of Deathwing and looks like
Alexstrasza la Lieuse-de-Vie
;
Rênes de drake flamboyant
is a rare drop from Madness of Deathwing on normal and heroic mode.
Rênes de l'émissaire du Crépuscule
is a reward for completing the Tier 13 meta achievement.
Les rênes du Cavalier
is only obtainable during
Sanssaint
inside the
Citrouille remplie de butin
from killing
Cavalier sans tête
the first time each day. It looks quite similar to Attumen's mount.
Brise-cœur X-45
, one of the rarest mounts in the game, is found in
Boîte en forme de cœur
upon defeating
Apothicaire Hummel
for the first time each day during
De l'amour dans l'air
. It's a bright pink rocket with leopard-print upholstery.
Alchimie
/
Archaeology
,
Engineering
, and
Couture
offer unique mounts.
Alchemy/Archaeology
:
Fiole des sables
, teaching
Drake de grès
, is a very expensive BoE mount to craft--the Cataclysm equivalent of the
Mechano-Hog
. It requires, among other things, 12
Vrai-or
and 8
Sables du temps
which cost . Not counting any discounts, you will spend on materials. You will also need to find an Alchemist who can craft the drake to purchase these items and make it for you. Alchemists obtain this pattern through archaeology, namely digging in Uldum until getting lucky with the contents of a
Vase canope
. This is a two-seater mount and awards the achievement
Fiole des sables
.
Engineering
:
Machine volante
(Eng 300) and
Machine volante à turbo-injection
(Eng 375) are two mounts only Engineers can use, from Burning Crusade trainers. However, it is possible to level Engineering solely for the mounts, learn them, and drop the profession--you will still keep the mounts in your overall total even though you cannot use them. These mounts have tons of mechanical wizardry and fun animations--it always seems like they're going to fall apart.
Tailoring
: Like Engineering mounts, you can learn these mounts and then safely drop the profession. The pattern for
Tapis volant givré
is sold by
Frozo l'Illustre
, a gnome mage in Dalaran, for 6
Orbe gelé
. Tailors can also learn
Tapis volant
(300) and
Tapis volant magnifique
(425)--the mats for these both are incredibly easy. Enjoy your very fast rug!
Flying mounts from reputation vendors is another area that will give you the bulk of needed mounts.
Rênes de drake rouge
requires Exalted with
Accord du Repos du ver
for . You can increase reputation by doing related quests and equipping
Tabard de l'Accord du Repos du ver
in instances.
Rênes de proto-drake vert
has a rare chance to hatch from
Œuf mystérieux
after 3 days, an item requiring Revered with
Oracles
to purchase.
Players exalted with
Garde-ciel sha'tari
can purchase the following mounts for :
Raie du Néant bleue
,
Raie du Néant verte
,
Raie du Néant violette
,
Raie du Néant rouge
,
Raie du Néant argentée
. There are daily quests and mobs by Skettis you can kill to increase your reputation.
Also in Outlands is
Aile-du-Néant
: we've got a complete guide to that faction's lore and reputation gains. At Exalted, there's an interesting series of events that results in you flying to Shattrath and choosing a drake for free; you can buy the remaining drakes from
Camelot de drake Hurlunk
for . They are:
Rênes de drake azur de l'Aile-du-Néant
,
Rênes de drake de l'Aile-du-Néant cobalt
,
Rênes de drake de l'Aile-du-Néant onyx
,
Rênes de drake de l'Aile-du-Néant violet
,
Rênes de drake de l'Aile-du-Néant viride
,
Rênes de drake de l'Aile-du-Néant pourpre
.
Hippogriffe de guerre cénarien
requires Exalted with
Expédition cénarienne
. It costs and grants
Hippogriffe de guerre cénarien
. It looks like the typical Alliance mounts by Kalimdor flight masters--navy blue with red accents. Players can increase their reputation quickly with
Armes de Glissecroc
, but at 85, it's probably faster and cheaper to clear out
Le caveau de la Vapeur
quickly for reputation.
From the Argent Tournament, there are two mounts:
Hippogriffe du Concordat argenté
/
Faucon-dragon saccage-soleil
requires exalted with
The Silver Covenant/ Sunreavers
and 150
Sceau de champion
, while
Hippogriffe d'Argent
, a brown and white hippogryph, costs 150
Sceau de champion
from all other racial vendors at the Tournament.
Like the ground mounts, these range widely in price and availability, from super-common to extremely-rare.
TCG
Fusée-de-néant X-51
and
Fusée-de-néant X-51 X-TREME
are rewards from the X-51 Rocket card in Servants of the Betrayer. Redeeming this card will give you both BoE mounts--the rare-quality version used to be a mount that flew at a slower speed. They're both fun rockets with engineering gadgets and neat details.
Drake tacheté
, from the Mottled Drake card in the Worldbreaker series, may have the same icon as the
Bronze Drake
but it looks nothing like it. Players often worry that the mount will be 'ugly and bronze with stripes,' but in reality there's a ton of subtle details--black wings with purple accents, all sorts of rust on the bronze body, green and brown spots covering the drake. Some people have even commented on mine that it looks darker than the
Black Drake
.
Faucon-dragon amani
is a BoE reward from Twilight of the Dragons.
Hippogriffe corrompu
is a BoE reward from the Crown of Heavens--a fel hippogryph.
Hippogriffe flamboyant
, from the Blazing Hippogryph card in the Wrathgate series, is a beautiful maroon-and-gold bird with fiery hooves. The
Flameward Hippogryph
looks similar, but the feathers are orange and the mount has more armor.
Blizzard
Palefroi céleste
, a sparkly pony loosely based on
Invincible's
skeleton, is a $25 mount that scales with riding level and is BoA, meaning all of your alts can benefit from it.
A recent addition, the
Gardien ailé
, also for $25, is a majestic lion with white and purple wings. It too is BoA and will be mailed to all toons upon purchase.
Fusée de tourisme X-53
is a reward people received for participating in the Recruit-A-Friend program. It is a two-seater silver rocket.
Destrier de Tyraël
is a reward from Blizzard's
'Annual Pass' promotion
for Diablo 3.
Class Mounts
Palefroi ailé de la Lame d'ébène
is a Death Knight-only mount with a unique model of a skeletal gryphon. It is sold by
Commandant de l'effroi Thalanor
for in Acherus, unlike other class mounts that are much cheaper and obtainable from class trainers.
Vendor
Alliance: Gryphon vendors in Dalaran, Borean Tundra, Hellfire Peninsula, Shadowmoon Valley, and Stormwind sell gryphons for and :
Griffon neigeux
,
Griffon doré
,
Griffon d'ébène
,
Griffon rouge rapide
,
Griffon violet rapide
,
Griffon vert rapide
,
Griffon bleu rapide
. They scale with maximum flying skill now, so you can use the simple and formerly slow models for real. In addition,
Mei Francis
in Dalaran sells
Griffon neigeux cuirassé
for which looks like the gryphons found at Wintergarde Keep.
Horde: Wind Rider vendors in Dalaran, Borean Tundra, Hellfire Peninsula, Shadowmoon Valley, and Orgrimmar sell wind riders for and :
Coursier du vent fauve
,
Coursier du vent vert
,
Coursier du vent bleu
,
Coursier du vent jaune rapide
,
Coursier du vent rouge rapide
,
Coursier du vent violet rapide
,
Coursier du vent vert rapide
.
Mei Francis
sells
Coursier du vent bleu cuirassé
for .
In addition to the spectral ground mounts, players who enjoy Tol Barad can purchase
Rênes de drake du vent d'Ouest
for 200
Recommandation de Tol Barad
.
World Drop
Rênes de proto-drake perdu dans le temps
is a guaranteed drop from the rare mob
Proto-drake perdu dans le temps
in The Storm Peaks. This mob shares a spawn timer with
Vyragosa
, so it's pretty rare to come across even in Cataclysm.
Rênes de drake de pierre phosphorescent
drops from
Aeonaxx
, a rare mob in Deepholm. Initially friendly at first, players jump on
Aeonaxx's
back to defeat it, then looting the mount. To learn more about respawn times, visit
this thread
.
These following mounts were given to players that achieved the rank of Gladiator in past arena seasons. Initially, obtaining these mounts was the only way players could get 310% flying. They are:
Drake du Néant rapide
,
Drake du Néant impitoyable
,
Drake du Néant vengeur
,
Drake du Néant brutal
,
Wyrm de givre du gladiateur fatal
,
Wyrm de givre du gladiateur furieux
,
Wyrm de givre du gladiateur implacable
,
Wyrm de givre du gladiateur courroucé
,
Drake du Crépuscule du gladiateur sans pitié
,
Drake du Crépuscule du gladiateur vicieux
.
The mount rewards for completing the 10- and 25-player versions of the t7 meta,
Gloire à l'écumeur de raids (10 joueurs)
, were removed (although the drakes for t8 and t10 content remain):
Rênes de proto-drake pestiféré
and
Rênes de proto-drake noir
.
Aquatic Mounts
There's a few mounts in-game that only work underwater. Even though the new content in the Abyssal Maw was removed in 4.2, there's still good reasons to have an aquatic mount. It's great for herbing in Vash'jir.
Hippocampe de Vashj’ir
is a quest reward from
La chevauchée abyssale
, one of the earliest quests in Vash'jir. This mount only works in Vash'jir and allows you to speedily navigate the zone, home to
Cercle terrestre
quartermaster, the only place to farm
Voile d'Azshara
, and several fun rares.
Rênes de Poséidus
drops from
Poséidus
in the Abyssal Depths and Shimmering Expanse in Vash'jir.
Poseidus
is on a long and unpredictable respawn rate; you can track it
here
. Fortunately, the mount is BoE and a few have made it to the AH. It's your call whether you want to spend gold on a mount that only works underwater. (Edit: I shelled out for it yesterday, it's definitely fun to parade about the Stormwind Canals in style.)
