Solo farmable mounts?

Unread post by Slickrock »

So, I'm being hit with a terrible case of alt burnout, so I'm thinking of starting to farm some of the solo farmable mounts. So, anyone have a list of them?

The ones I am going to start with are the Kara one, blue protodrake, stonecore, and perhaps the ZA ones.

What others are there?

The awesome Black Drake in the Obsidian Sanctum is easy to solo on 10 man have yet to try 25 solo for the Twilight Drake but it shouldn't be any trouble. Onyxia lair 10 man is another easy solo to do, as is obviously Stratholme for the Deathcharger, the Raven Lord from Sethekk Halls heroic, any from AQ40 most of all the red one which gives a Feat of Strength when gotten, the Drake of the North Wind in Vortex Pinnacle.

Creston has listed quite a few, but here are a few more:

The Eye of Eternity; Malygos is a bit of a pain at first, but once you get into the rhythm for the mounted phase, it's very simple and worth it, as he of course can drop two mounts.

Then there's Tempest Keep for Ashes of Al'ar.

The Vault of Archavon for the Grand Black Mammoth; it can drop from all the bosses.

Magister's Terrace for the Swift White Hawkstrider.

Zandalari Warbringers aren't too difficult to solo either.

It is apparently possible to solo Alysrazor for the mount; can't say that I've tried it, but it can be done.

Didn't see ZG listed yet, which has 2 mounts. Or did you mean ZG when you said ZA? ZA has a mount if you complete the timed run.

Not quite the same, but it'd result in mounts as well: You can try soloing some achievements for meta mounts, though I don't think there's any meta that can be done purely solo (but I could be wrong). I just 2 manned to finish my Ulduar 25 meta last week.

And to answer the above:
- OS25 is soloable.
- Onyxia25 is soloable too but there's really no reason to do it over Ony10 unless you're bored.
- Alysrazor is soloable though it's still a challenge. I was not able to solo it (I never was good at the flying part and routinely plummet from the sky) but was able to 2 man it in ToT gear.

Ones that I've managed:
The Obsidian Sanctum-Black Drake Mount
Karazhan horse mount
Vault of Archavon- black 3 seater mammoth mount
Reins of the Grey Riding Camel-not really a raid but a hunted mount
Onyxia-rediculously easy
Reins of the Raven Lord- also easy, especially on a stealth class, just stealth to the boss that drops him
Swift White Hawkstrider-also easy
Ahn'Qiraj Temple mounts in four colors. not useable outside of it but easy to get

Working on:
Amani Battle Bear-Zul'aman doable with 2-3 earlier, can likely solo on a hunter I think, havent honestly tried in awhile
Ashes of Al'ar -doable solo but a little tricky
Eye of Eternity mounts
Reins of the Bloodbathed Frostbrood Vanquisher-Acheivement mount for glory of the lich king raider 10 man (also do the 25 man?)-almost got this with two players. Just need to heal up that sleepy dragon faster in a heal spec. Ship is the only thing I would think that would be hard to solo.
Invincible's Reins-same as above
Deathcharger's Reins-easy but time consuming to get the RNG to like you
Reins of the Vitreous Stone Drake-Stonecore normal is easy to solo as a 90 geared hunter. Again, just the RNG is annoying

All the raids and instances seem to have been covered so ill add:

I'm currently farming shards for Alani but thats rng more than anything!

The Warbringers too are easy to solo as a hunter with the pet heal buff, SB kindly showed me how and I got all three colours now!

Huolon - every hour or so, can grind rep for the gold serpent while you wait for spawn nearby.

If you don't have the 3 raptors from the eggs you can solo the small direhorns, also can collect bones for the white mount at the same time and the new pet that drops too.
