![]() Adding old items back now makes it worthless. "This is trash," writes user Azeida on Twitter, in response to MR GM's post. However, for the dedicated collector with a mount tab packed full of different horses, dragons, and so on, this could potentially open the door to those few missing steeds that would otherwise be locked away. For the average player, this would be just a quirky new item with a touch of nostalgia for those who've been around the block a while. This opens the door for some interesting possibilities. Check out the trailer for Embers of Nelfarion, the most recent major update. In a Dawn of the Infinites run posted online by UK content creator MR GM, the party was able to get their hands on Quantum loot, which when used provided gear and mounts from prior expansions. ![]() In doing so, they've picked up some loot that may change the world of mount and cosmetic farming forever.Ĭollecting rare mounts and cool looking gear has always been of the biggest draws to World of Warcraft over the year, whether it's the sinking the time and gold for Thunderfurry, Blessed Blade of the Windseeker back in Vanilla WoW, or farming the Mists of Pandaria World bosses on repeat every week for a tiny chance at a fancy new dragon or dinosaur to ride around on.īut the rarest stuff has always been the loot you can no longer get your hands on! Over the years, several pieces have been removed from the game as content has shifted and evaporated from live servers. ![]() Getting Rid of It: You're joking, right? Vendors won't even accept this thing from you.A small selection of players are playing around on the World of Warcraft public test realm (PTR) right now, trying out the upcoming Dawn of the Infinites dungeon set to launch with Patch 10.1.5. Oh, and if you're not the first to open the gates, you can still get the mount, you just have to hit the gong (which means you need to finish the quest also) sometime within 10 hours of when it is first hit. If you were playing back when AQ first came out, you'll remember that opening the gates requires the whole server- Horde and Alliance- to collect tons and tons of items for "the War Effort."īut after all that is finished (all in a day's work, right?), you can finally take your Scepter of Ahn'Qiraj down to the gates of AQ, hit the gong, and this black bug mount is yours. Oh, and then there's the whole "War Effort" thing. In order to actually finish this questline, however, (which starts in Silithus, if you really want to try), you'll have to go all over Azeroth and do all kinds of super heroic stuff- in short, you'll need to be backed by a guild full of people who know what they're doing. Then, of course, you'll have to get your character all the way up to 60, so you can start the questline that will give you the mallet you need to bang the gong to open the gates. So you'll have to roll a toon on one of the newer servers- yes, there are still quite a few servers out there who have not yet opened the AQ gates. First of all, if you're on a server where the gates have been open for more than 10 hours (which is most of them), you're out of luck. Lots of people can get non-black bug mounts- they drop pretty regularly in Ahn'Qiraj 40, and can only be used in that instance (and not in combat- apparently the bugs are very skittish).īut the black qiraji mounts are very, very rare, and the reason is this: they were given only to players who hit the gong outside of Ahn'Qiraj only during a 10-hour period after the opening of the gates. So you could be in combat (like, in a battleground), start to summon the mount, and as long as you've left combat by the time it finished, you'll be mounted. And while this may be a "bug" (get it?), players are reporting that there's something special about the way this mount is summoned- while you do have to be out of combat and unmounted to actually summon it (like all mounts), you don't have to be either when you start summoning it (unlike other mounts).More on why that's so special in a second. It's called a Silithid Scarab, or more formally, a Black Qiraji Battle Tank.It's the bug looking thing you see above. Well technically, the crystal isn't the mount- it just summons one.They don't come much more rare than this baby- you had 10 hours to get it, and the overwhelming odds are that you didn't anyway.
