Mount Acomplishment Thread

However, if you decide to do all the achievements with a small group, you WILL need a full group for the achievement "Holding Hands". It cannot be done with less than 10 people.

This is incorrect. I have gotten Holding Hands 2 manning, across multiple toons. It is so insanely easy for 2 players to do because you'll likely need both toons in order to make the conduit (thus instantly qualifying for the achievement).

Grats everyone on their new mounts! and good to know buttercup!

[Lupis]

Really? Shoot, I had no idea! We always needed ten people, but maybe the raid leader just didn't know? Either way, good to know- thank you!

[peanutbuttercup]

Yeah I was initially under the impression that I'd never get the achievement done without a full raid, and reading comments on wowhead made it sound like the WORST achievement ever (people having to wipe the encounter for hours because 1 person was out of place each time, dead players causing the achieve to go "Nope, one guy was dead, therefore ALL players weren't in chain," pets causing it to bug out). Then on my first trip in there 2 man, we instantly got it and I didn't see how it was possible. But the achievement reads all players must be in conduit chain, not ten players...

Incidentally you can use your pet in the chain to make it easier and it will count. Just have each person assigned to stand in the same position each time to make it go fast. When I do it I first put the pet halfway between conduits along the arc (it's a quarter circle). I stand halfway between the pet and the first conduit. The other person stands halfway between pet and the conduit we're chaining to. As soon as it shorts out, move pet to next arc, repeat positioning.

Ahh, thank God for two computers. I'm on the one downstairs (which I'll actually be getting when mum gets her new computer. The internet problems I've been having on my computer can't be fixed)
Anyway...Rustbound Protodrake!

My adorable little water strider, who I didn't think I'd like but somehow ended up loving.

And one of the coolest mounts in game...the Icebound Frostbrood Vanquisher!

I loved this mount since I first saw someone on it and I'm sooo happy I finally got him! in my head, he was one of Sindragosa's brood who flew down to slay the adventurers who dared enter the citadel, but upon seeing the heroism of the party, he realised he'd made a mistake in going against them. As he laid dying one hunter stopped in front of him, and he shut his cold eyes, expecting the killing blow. It never came. Opening his eyes, he realised that the hunter was smiling at him. Confused, he stood up, watching her cautiously. Her team mates stood off to the side, and showed no signs of attacking him. Gingerly, he nudged her with his snout. The hunter didn't attack, and instead held out a pair of reins. Understanding what she was asking, the vanquisher nodded, before allowing her to put on the reins. He had nowhere else to go, and she was offering him a second chance. He happily took it.

Truth be told, there was no heroic rescuing of the drake. I ran the 25man once with a friend and her guildies, and got most achevs. My guild were offering a hc 25man icc run for invincible. Since the only achevs i needed were received by nuking down bosses or simply completeing it in heroic, I tagged along. I'm so glad I did. I've finally got my Skelly dragon. 153 mounts now! I'm hoping the get all northrend meta mounts, but i'm content with the ones I have. 2 meta mounts in 2 days, yipee!

Seems that my luck of getting no mounts for ages has given out. I've been having mounts fall out my ears recently. I was at....130 ish, perhaps a little less, a month ago. I out my foot down and look where I'm getting myself. Now...if the green proto felt like hatching from that egg in my bags :/ at some point I'll stop spamming this thread with mounts...I feel like I'm kinda shoving it in everyone's faces that I've got these mounts

[Castile]

After MUCH digging (and learning that spirits can be turned in for artifacts duh!) this finally came up!!! After a shitty week of being sick this was an awesome find I had over 130 solves on my Druid (who was my main archy) so I switched to my horde main hunter to lvl her up to 600 for a change of scene, so happy!

[cowmuflage]

I got him yesterday <3 Ugh now I will never need to do that bloody Razorscale dwarf thing again.




If it was not for Openraid I'd have none of these <3

[Doc Privas]

Argent Dawn just went back online so I did my daily mount run...finally <3

[Meggers]

Got my Kor'Kron Juggernaut last week. Guild finally has it on farm and #6 was mine! Woo

[Ëlfdragon]

3 mounts in one fight? YES PLEASE! (2 achievements and 1 rare drop)

Finally, after trying for the last 2 achievements for months, I got this pretty fire birdy <3

I really don't much like this one, and feel Blizz could have done better on it.

And this guy is so pretty as well. I think I found my new main ground mount for my main <3

PS. The random goblin in the pictures is my friend who helped me. He was running circles around me while I took SS's of my mounts. (I guess he's not really all that random then, hehe )

[Lupen202]

So jealous of your flametalon, congrats Been solo'ing Aly on two different 90s to get that thing. I think I'm up to run #50 or so? It's definitely worth it, though!

[Finduilas]

Oh yes, pretty flametalon. I think I should learn to solo this fight too, but I can't make myself.

One of my guilds finally made the last missing achiev for the thundering jade serpent. They were quite inactive during the last months so you can understand my surprise when I saw it in the guild tab.

[Snowbird]

Ohh congratz hunny!!<3

My husband gave me vial of the sands this morning





and a poem to go with it



hard to translate love poems from danish since this one rhymes in danish but roughly translated it says :

wherever you are with me we will fly
high, far, and to all corners of the globe
we draw on an adventure together again
thus, all days become good

[Shaiandra]

A couple days ago I got all the talbuk mounts not bought through pvp stuff, it was a long grind, but worth it :3

[Ana]

GLEEE i was super lucky today..so glad they made that boss so eazy that husband and i can farm it together

[ejpaints]

Onyxia finally gave up the goods after I don't remember how long of farming it weekly on multiple alts. Now to relocate them over to Maly. Azure drake is last one I need for drake collector meaning it might take awhile knowing my luck.

[Arthur]

I got the ram now I have both and can stop doing that dungeon on eight 90s :'D

Well not that he will post it himself, But Wain got a shiny new Pure Blood Firehawk this week! Woop de Woop! /cheer!
And the good news for everyone else associated with this that I'd like to share, is that I can 100% confirm, that this mount dropped from 10man normal!
So unlike Yogg, LK, DW and soon to be Garry, you can farm this end raid boss not on 25HM with a chance it will drop.
Good luck and Happy Farming all!
