This will be the comment I update with any corrections. There are some other infinitely farmable mounts such as rivendare's deathcharger and the stonecore drake, but I'll be saving those for part 2 since they're farmable multiple times a day. For this one I just wanted to go over daily/weekly mounts. I also added timestamps for each mount in the description in case you have some already and would like to skip through it. Also, something I forgot to mention is to pickup some Bear Tartar: www.wowhead.com/item=133576/bear-tartare This really speeds up some of these dungeons/raids. Also, if you have a demon hunter alt I believe they're the fastest out of any class still. Corrections: The pureblood fire hawk/flametalon of alysrazor drop from the firelands(I said this vocally, but the text incorrectly said dragon soul) The blazing drake can also drop from Heroic mode(not just normal) The Sha of Anger now has a fixed spawn point at 54, 65 I missed some Argus mounts that you can get from rare spawns once a day: ptr.wowhead.com/list=54807075/argus-mounts#0-items
For HFC: The quest you showed is actually just the port for the upper part, to get the port to mannoroth you need to do the following quest, which requires you to kill mannoroth 4 times. Also the port only brings you up to mannoroth, so you need to kill him each time.
I spend a lot of time on youtube but barely ever have i left comments on videos. I want to take my time to let you know that your videos are wonderful. They’re interesting, well documented (you can feel the amount of effort you put into them), well structured and they give off a weird but pleasant feeling, especially of the music and the intro. Keep it up!
I feel your pain. I extreme soloed the ZG tiger boss before they changed it. I dc'd just after the boss died. He was gone before I got back in, so I couldn't loot. I opened a ticket and the game master told me there was nothing they could do, and for me to just try again in 3 days. I bet you anything that the mount dropped that time. Ugh!
4th try for me it dropped but my gf cannot drop that thing either, I'd rather had been lucky on Invincible tho, 250+ kills and still counting... (stonecore takes 40 seconds to do the run and reset, ICC.. 19 minutes and must wait a week :/)
Legit so many guides on the internet, wowhead, thottbot and all the other youtubers who make guides etc. on mounts, farming, "how to get". But one thing i love about your vids is you ACTUALLY explain things in depht NO other guide does, you explain every single detail for all new players to understand, your sub counter will be flying soon if you keep making this great content man! Keep it up and thanks for the help and understanding about the mount drops :)
Love your content, MadSeasonShow! A side note: the shortcut quest in the Hellfire Citadel raid leads you to the last TWO bosses, Mannaroth and Archimode, not straight to Archimonde. Keep up the good work ~
Wow this is probably the best mount farming video on RUclips. there are many others as well as others in blogs and wowhead, but they are not as detailed as yours. all information in 1 video! WELL DONE!!!!
Bear Tartare is a food you can eat that gives you a temporary movement speed boost after killing an enemy, it doesn't have to be an enemy that rewards XP, so when farming old raids you can clear to bosses much quicker, saving a lot of time between runs
This is exactly the kind of mount video style I was looking for. Watched it all, but thank you for time stamps for when I want to actually do it. Very well done and viewer friendly!
This is the one WoW video i actually bookmarked for later. Great info, soothing voice and the background music isnt that annoying thumpa thumpa you get with most vids. keep it up man
Couple corrections first the battle bear is NOT 100 percent it is about 98 I missed it once got it second time, after doing everything correctly second if you are a tank in legion YOU CAN solo mythic Kara I do it weekly with 936 IL demon hunter in vengeance. Good luck
Super helpful guide, thank you so much! Also got a rare pet (Zyphyrian Prince) that dropped in Kalimdor, Uldum, Throne of the four winds raid 25 H while I was doing my first run for Drake of the South wind ^_^
superclaw900 ive been farming that since 2015. and im at i think at least 30 runs. the Ashes of Autism have yet to drop EDIT: According to the addon Rarity, i actually now have 76 runs so far.
It took me 200 or so tries to get Ashes, and between 200-300 for Invincible if memory serves me. Only got the latter recently during Legion. The one thing about mounts in WoW is that unless they take it out, it will eventually fall for you if you keep trying. It's the reason that I solo things - so that I won't have to ninja it from someone. Just make sure that you're master looter and everyone understands that it's yours if you go with other people and care about getting it. (Like I was soloing Attumen for the Fiery Warhorse back in the day, and a friend wanted to come because she needed to do something in Kara past him. I made it very clear that the mount was mine if it dropped because I had been trying for so long. It dropped and she was happy to pass on it. She was my good luck charm. lol) Edited to add: It does bug me sometimes when I see people get mounts easily that I've been farming for a while: a guildy did Mythic SoO and got the mount the first time he was ever in there. Lost Ashes back in the day to a roll when someone came with us in a group run that we did weekly. And in my last guild, a guildy took both Mim's Head and Elegon's mount in the same night when my boyfriend at the time and another friend and I were doing our usual old raid runs and we let him tag along. I was really salty about that one for a while because he didn't even know that Mim's Head or Elegon's mount existed! (And the friend and my ex had been farming for Mim's Head longer than I had been, so they should've been the ones to get it. The other guy was a loot ninja, too, and not a team player but I was trying to be nice so let him come.)
This is a great video. I bypassed the group alt switch-aroo thing by multi boxing. That's actually working much better for me; as 4 toons with the same chance to get the mount is giving me a better drop %. Keep these lists coming! I need more mounts!!!
For those who are doing the Dragon Soul mounts, there is also a achievment mount that you can solo if you are interested, i forgot its name but it's preety much twilight Life Binders maiden.
Solid video but I have a few comments: 1. For the Amani Battle Bear as long as you get to the boss holding Kasha by killing the other animal bosses,, kill him, and then free her before the timer you will still get it. You don't need to free any other npcs.. 2. You forgot to include the Deathcharger's Reins from Rivendare in Stratholme. (EDIT: Included in your pinned comment) 3. You forgot to include the stonecore drake. (EDIT: Included in your pinned comment) 3. You forgot to include the mount (Drake of the North Winds) that drops off of the second boss (Altairus) in Vortex Pinnacle. 4. In draenor you forgot to include the mounts that drop off the main 4 rare elites on Tanaan. Their respawn timer isn't terrible unlike the other draenor rares that drop the mounts like Poundfist etc. You are eligible for the cages once per day per boss I believe. 5. You didn't include the mounts from the rares in Argus. Probably worth including. 6. Both drakes from Deathwing drop on H mode. (EDIT: Included in your pinned comment) 7. Sha has a static spawn now. (EDIT: Included in your pinned comment) There are others you missed too but I assume you left out most of the rare hunts like timelost or the purple Alysrazor mount recolor because they are more luck and camping than farming. Also assume you left most rep grinds out as well because those aren't really daily/weekly farms.
Thanks for the info, Cub! I'll be including a lot of these in part 2 since I wanted to keep the daily/weekly farms separate from the "infinite" farms. On second thought, it might have been a better call to include the dungeon ones(strath, stonecore, pinnacle) anyways, but ah well. I'll be sure to get them in part 2. I also didn't know about the daily lockout on the tanaan jungle ones...worth noting. Thanks for the informative comment.
My pleasure. You might want to mention the site simplearmory.com/#/ for people too. In the collectable tab there is a mount section. It will list all the mounts your missing. You can also check the planner and it will list a fairly efficient farm route. I have nothing to do with the site, but I've been using it for a year (maybe longer) and it's helped me stay on track.
Wow. It's so strange to see someone made a video over 2 years ago based on a guide I wrote a few expansions back (I'm the author of the Wowhead guide mentioned in the description). I guess the RUclips algoritme sometimes does work?
Okay so I just watched this video and decided to do a mount run. Got Raven Lord and the Swift White Hawkstrider in just 30 minutes. Thank you so much for the vid !
Wise Burger, you know you can have like 50+ characters per account that can all kill him every week right? Even a full realm of 12 characters could achieve 2.1k kills in a little over 3 years, which is entirely possible.
ICC wasn't working for me, so looked on other forums and found a solve. Tested and updated it, here it is. Got invincible while testing the method! After 4 years of farming him, it was a relief to finally have him drop! Here is the updated lockout method Steps 1-3 if you don’t have healing on your main spec or whomever you want to clear the raid on, otherwise just do all of raid but lich king (don’t have to healing dragon at all). 1. Clear all but the healing dragon and lich king on your main on NORMAL 25 difficulty, or all but Lich King. 2. Create a group in the group finder with your main, still with difficulty set to NORMAL 25, and set to auto invite, and private if all your alts are in the same guild. 3. Log onto a healer who can solo the healing dragon, or get some help if you need. Make sure this character has their raid difficulty set to NORMAL 25 to match your main, and join your own group in group finder with The character you complete the Valythria encounter. Your main will NOT be saved even though he is in the group because this is normal difficulty. 4. You now have an 11/12 lockout on normal difficulty that can be joined by any character. Hearth out, leave group, and create a group in group finder, still with difficulty set to NORMAL 25. Auto invite on will make it faster for you to join your group. 5. Log onto whichever character you want to kill lich king, set your difficulty to NORMAL 25, and join your own group. 6. Zone into ICC. Accept the 11/12 lockout message. Leave the group, then change the difficulty to Heroic after the message saying you are in an instance that you are not a part of. It will ask if you want to accept being locked to the 11/12 Heroic instance, or leave instance and re-enter 25 man normal and switch to Heroic upon entering. Leave instance and re-enter with the lockout saved. (does not matter if you have killed him on normal, it will still switch to heroic.) Do not try to get multiple characters lockouts saved, it will mess up. Kill Lich king immediately after accepting lockout and re-entering instance. 7. Kill H LK 25. 8. Repeat steps 4-7 as many times as you have characters who can kill H LK 25 for as many weeks as you want. 9. Log back into your main, switch the difficulty to Heroic, and kill the Lich King. Once done with your main, the instance will be locked, so do him/her last. Important notes: BOTH the character saving the lockout AND the character joining the lockout need to be set to NORMAL 25 or it will cause problems. The character joining the lockout may NOT set the difficulty to Heroic until after zoning in and accepting the 11/12 normal. If you follow these instructions precisely, you will have no trouble killing just H LK every week on multiple characters while avoiding a full ICC clear, no matter what anyone on here will tell you. It's not a bug or an exploit, it is how the lockout works. The number one cause of any trouble is typically disagreement between the 2 characters' raid difficulties. Always make sure everyone is set to NORMAL 25 before you create or join your groups and it should go very smoothly. Best of luck.
I really do appreciate your videos. Though not all are helpful for me and rather for newer players, it's really great to see how much time and effort you put into them compared to some other WoW RUclipsrs. Thanks for the great content.
are you serious? i dont mean the caverns of time instance, i mean the regular stratholme. the one in eastern plaguelands. the one with scarlet guys on one side and undead shit on the other side. www.wowhead.com/item=13335 how about you go learn your shit?
And yeah, technically you can farm it all day. but theres a 5 instances per hour lockout which i find myself hitting really fast. so i just do 5 runs then leave and cry
damn. I just bought a sky golem. Then I saw the feelsteel annihilatior. Now I feel like having a outdated mount :( How do you get the new golden war frame from legion?
you can also solo mythic Blackhand, but its much harder. make sure in the 2nd phase to get him by the wall with your back facing it by the times he casts Shattering Smash. if he does and you go on the balcony, the fight will reset. and in the 3rd phase, stay as far away from the edge as possible.
I was just casually doing Tempest Keep for some xmog and potential mount drop while watching this vid. It's probably only my 3rd run of this raid in my life and I got my Ashes of Al'ar
Hey madseason. Just letting you know you said the Pure Blood fire hawk and Flametalon of Alysrazor while in correcting its pronounced "A-Lis-Ra-Zor", you said these drop from Ragnaros and Alysrazor in dragon soul 😂 At 10:17 Other then that. Thanks heaps for the video!
I'm sorry my friend but Midnight in Mythic+ (Legion) can be soloed. If you have a tank with decent ilvl ,920, you can clear the first boss and go directly to Midnight. Have been doing it for two weeks now, still no mount :(
8:44 this one is disgusting to farm, i could have gotten it so much sooner than i did if i didnt have to wait for my faction to take control of that place all the time, im glad they havent done anything like that again oh, who else got the smoldering ember wyrm first try? :D
A big tip for Elegon. If you are running on Heroic25, make sure you can do high DPS and drop him before 50% or whatever before he spawns the guy that will 1-shot a geared 110. This can be difficult if on a undergeared tank/healer or lvl100 toon.
you get the achievement for the dungeon before you get the mount that boss is killed last and the follow the npc when it breaks the 3 vases and the mount is in the 3rd vase (so kill "Halazzi" last ) works every time
chainexplorer nah its 92%, not 100, you've just gotten it for yourself and your guildies so much because 92% is still ridiculously high. I had to do it twice as well.
What a retarded comment to make, just because you've never seen it coined doesn't mean it can't be coined, I know for a fact that you can coin it because I COINED it myself. Please educate yourself or look a fool.
I feel like mounts are pointless now. i remember in vanilla/BC when getting a cool mount was actually awesome, but now there are way too many mounts! it kinda lost appeal
Mazxlol To each their own. I still get amazed at some of the mounts i see and i still love collecting mine even though i mostly use my long-forgotten hippogryph.
Flippers true. I am honestly happy for you man, i wish i could once again enjoy the game as well but i completely lost interest to play wow due to WOD/Legion changes ;(
I feel like the only mounts that matter are current content raid mounts, and a handful of old hard-to-obtain mounts (Fiery Warhorse, Mimiron, Invincible, Sandstone Drake).
Are there really many other ways to do a boss with scripted mechanics though? How can there really be any originality in that field. The only mark of quality is the clarity of the guide, of which, Asmongold's were really good!
For Siege. If you got First Aid you can always put bandages on the contaminated water thingy's. It WILL count as healing. Did it with my DH and you should also be able to solo some WOD content, cleared Highmaul and Blackrock Foundry solo
The LFG trick for ICC & Ulduar DO still work, contrary to a lot of comments below saying it has been fixed. First step, log off all characters you want to run through outside the instance. For Ulduar, clear up to Yogg on one character / use an old lockout. Then exit the instance and create a premade group (just a questing group is fine, but remember your alts Warmode needs to be turned on/off the same as your main or the group won't appear). Log onto your first alt, sign up, log back onto the character with the lockout and accept, then log back onto your alt and accept the invite. You can then enter the instance and kill Yogg then hearth your alt out. Your main won't get locked so you can just repeat. For ICC, it's essentially the same. However, after killing the Lich King on your alt, it may appear that your mains is saved to the same lockout when you enter the instance but they aren't. I'm not sure exactly what does it, but you need to keep rezoning into the instance / changing difficulty settings until you're no longer given the "accept lockout" popup when zoning inside. Don't press accept, just exit the instance. Also, once it has worked and you enter on your alt to kill the LK, if the difficulty is on normal REMEMBER TO SWITCH IT TO HEROIC OR THE MOUNT WON'T DROP. Your main will be offline as leader, but after a few minutes you'll be automatically given leader and you can switch it. Hope this helps somebody!
I can't remember what patch it was introduced but Sha of Anger no longer spawns randomly through kun'lai summit, he only spawns at the middle top location show on the map in the video. This was because he dies so fast that if you weren't lucky enough to have him spawn at the location you were camping then the chances of you getting to it before it died was very slim.
Just a minor one, the skip in HFC doesn't take you straight to Archimonde, it's to Mannoroth first, then Archimonde, not sure if anyone else pointed that out :)
Started playing 4 weeks ago and wanted a cool mount. Got twilight and black drake asap cause they were easy and twilight is kinda cool. I decided to kill sha of anger, kalethas(raid), mylagors, and mogushun vaults for the mounts. Nothing the first or second week, obviously no big deal. Week 3 fricken ashes or Al'ar....Week 4 Invincible WTF thank you sir wouldn't have done this without this video
From the Cataclysm part, you have missed the Vitreous Stone Drake from Slabhide in the Stonecare, and the Drake of the North wind from Altairus in the Vortex Pinnacle.
Awesome info video even in 2020 my Paladin got the Astral Cloud Serpent 1st try. Also I had no idea about the bronze drake drop every group I've ever been in skipped killing that side boss so I never got it or knew it was there.
I wish everybody going for that Swift Zulian Panther good luck! Went there every day for half a year, starting at my 1st toon while levelling when I started in mid legion, and ending with 3 toons. After that I had a break, running it every now and then (once or twice a week) before picking it up again lately, and running it approximately 20times a week or more across 8toons, and just got it the other week. First mount I tried to get, and I'm looking forward to not flying and using it in Shadowlands, that's how much effort I put into it! 😭😂
Great video, really appreciate it. I have quite a few but missing some upon my return..you should do a video on what you can no longer get and rep faction mounts, if you haven't already
Thank you! It’s great video but sadly the “auto accept” has been removed so I can no longer use multiple character to farm mount in your way. This is sad
There is an addon called --- "PremadeAutoAccept" --- which returns this functionality. You do have to checkbox the roles you want to auto-accept as the default is toggled to off for all roles, but once it's on, it's on.
Dungeon mounts can drop in timewalkers aswell btw, got the white birdy thingy in TW, had it tho. So traded it away to a guildie I did it with, he was very happy.
World of Warcraft raid journal says that the Blazing Drake is achievable on all difficulties, and that it is the Life-Binder’s Handmaiden that can only be achieved on Heroic.
I was running icc 25h to get the blood quest for Shadowmourne done on my warrior, and I needed two friends with me to complete it. Once it was done they asked to finish the raid with me for transmog. So OF COURSE invincible drops. Literally the 6th time I had been in there. And of course I didn't win it. Pissed me off because loot is set when you zone in, so if I had made them leave, it would have been all mine. And THEN, the same friend who won invincible was farming firelands with me for transmog, and the mount off of rag drops! But I won that one, thank god.
Got Anzu first try, White Hawkstrider after 5-6 tries, Ashes took me 10 - 12 tries, Black War Mammoth at the fourth full clean (there is a glitch to come in even if your faction don't control Wintergrasp) and blue drake at 7 tries. What a luck ! Edit : I got them all during the same month when returning IG after many years (2011) !
Okay MadSeasonShow is one of my favorite WoW related youtube channels, but I am really sick of people trashing Warlords of Draenor, it really was a good expansion.
This will be the comment I update with any corrections. There are some other infinitely farmable mounts such as rivendare's deathcharger and the stonecore drake, but I'll be saving those for part 2 since they're farmable multiple times a day. For this one I just wanted to go over daily/weekly mounts.
I also added timestamps for each mount in the description in case you have some already and would like to skip through it. Also, something I forgot to mention is to pickup some Bear Tartar: www.wowhead.com/item=133576/bear-tartare
This really speeds up some of these dungeons/raids. Also, if you have a demon hunter alt I believe they're the fastest out of any class still.
Corrections:
The pureblood fire hawk/flametalon of alysrazor drop from the firelands(I said this vocally, but the text incorrectly said dragon soul)
The blazing drake can also drop from Heroic mode(not just normal)
The Sha of Anger now has a fixed spawn point at 54, 65
I missed some Argus mounts that you can get from rare spawns once a day: ptr.wowhead.com/list=54807075/argus-mounts#0-items
MadSeasonShow your background music makes me miss Chrono Trigger
Hi @MadSeasonShow - one thing to fix. Sha of Anger was changed to spawn only on 1 point. One of those 2 Top-Left ones.. not really sure which one
Thanks for this! Makes me want to farm mounts again, even though I already have the 300 achievement.
If you alts are all in the same guild, then you can select private group, so only your toons can join the LFG
For HFC: The quest you showed is actually just the port for the upper part, to get the port to mannoroth you need to do the following quest, which requires you to kill mannoroth 4 times. Also the port only brings you up to mannoroth, so you need to kill him each time.

Have over 325 kills on the dragon in the Stonecore...one time I forgot to loot and reset it. I swear it dropped that run
I feel your pain. I extreme soloed the ZG tiger boss before they changed it. I dc'd just after the boss died. He was gone before I got back in, so I couldn't loot. I opened a ticket and the game master told me there was nothing they could do, and for me to just try again in 3 days. I bet you anything that the mount dropped that time. Ugh!
got him after about 400. never used him after that.
thats nothing bro, leveled 3 alts with my friends. Dropped 3 times always lost the roll to a friend. I level alone since that day.
Talacocheta i got it on my first run back in cata before i even knew the mount existed
4th try for me it dropped but my gf cannot drop that thing either, I'd rather had been lucky on Invincible tho, 250+ kills and still counting... (stonecore takes 40 seconds to do the run and reset, ICC.. 19 minutes and must wait a week :/)

Love your content, MadSeasonShow!
A side note: the shortcut quest in the Hellfire Citadel raid leads you to the last TWO bosses, Mannaroth and Archimode, not straight to Archimonde.
Keep up the good work ~
BlueEyesDan you can solo Mannoroth as well. altho you need to have a certain amount of mobility and survivability
Wow this is probably the best mount farming video on RUclips. there are many others as well as others in blogs and wowhead, but they are not as detailed as yours. all information in 1 video! WELL DONE!!!!
A quik tip if you're going to run old raids/dungeons: use Bear Tartare, makes it a hell of a lot faster.
Yea, im using it always and it's great :)
Tartaarsaus
Bear Tartare is a food you can eat that gives you a temporary movement speed boost after killing an enemy, it doesn't have to be an enemy that rewards XP, so when farming old raids you can clear to bosses much quicker, saving a lot of time between runs

Wow... That tip about being able to skip right to last boss on all alts after doing it on your main is amazing! This will save me so much time! :D

still farming ashes after 3 years with 20 different level cap chars, fml
I got ashes on my second run lol
Only 3 years? I wasn't using 20 alts though. But it took many more than 3 years for me. Good luck for the next time!
superclaw900 ive been farming that since 2015. and im at i think at least 30 runs. the Ashes of Autism have yet to drop
EDIT: According to the addon Rarity, i actually now have 76 runs so far.
Matsen115 That's not too much. I've done 80 in the last 4 months to try and get Invincible running 5 chars.
It took me 200 or so tries to get Ashes, and between 200-300 for Invincible if memory serves me. Only got the latter recently during Legion. The one thing about mounts in WoW is that unless they take it out, it will eventually fall for you if you keep trying. It's the reason that I solo things - so that I won't have to ninja it from someone. Just make sure that you're master looter and everyone understands that it's yours if you go with other people and care about getting it. (Like I was soloing Attumen for the Fiery Warhorse back in the day, and a friend wanted to come because she needed to do something in Kara past him.

Solid video but I have a few comments:
1. For the Amani Battle Bear as long as you get to the boss holding Kasha by killing the other animal bosses,, kill him, and then free her before the timer you will still get it. You don't need to free any other npcs..
2. You forgot to include the Deathcharger's Reins from Rivendare in Stratholme. (EDIT: Included in your pinned comment)
3. You forgot to include the stonecore drake. (EDIT: Included in your pinned comment)
3. You forgot to include the mount (Drake of the North Winds) that drops off of the second boss (Altairus) in Vortex Pinnacle.
4. In draenor you forgot to include the mounts that drop off the main 4 rare elites on Tanaan. Their respawn timer isn't terrible unlike the other draenor rares that drop the mounts like Poundfist etc. You are eligible for the cages once per day per boss I believe.
5. You didn't include the mounts from the rares in Argus. Probably worth including.
6. Both drakes from Deathwing drop on H mode. (EDIT: Included in your pinned comment)
7. Sha has a static spawn now. (EDIT: Included in your pinned comment)
There are others you missed too but I assume you left out most of the rare hunts like timelost or the purple Alysrazor mount recolor because they are more luck and camping than farming. Also assume you left most rep grinds out as well because those aren't really daily/weekly farms.
Thanks for the info, Cub! I'll be including a lot of these in part 2 since I wanted to keep the daily/weekly farms separate from the "infinite" farms. On second thought, it might have been a better call to include the dungeon ones(strath, stonecore, pinnacle) anyways, but ah well. I'll be sure to get them in part 2. I also didn't know about the daily lockout on the tanaan jungle ones...worth noting. Thanks for the informative comment.
My pleasure. You might want to mention the site simplearmory.com/#/ for people too. In the collectable tab there is a mount section. It will list all the mounts your missing. You can also check the planner and it will list a fairly efficient farm route. I have nothing to do with the site, but I've been using it for a year (maybe longer) and it's helped me stay on track.
Thanks for this vid, played for years and years never saw such a complete guide
Going by the in-game Adventure Guide, the Antoran Charhound can indeed drop from *any* difficulty.
Sometimes I think I just watch your videos for the relaxing theme music at the start and relaxing delivery of the information through out. :D
Wow. It's so strange to see someone made a video over 2 years ago based on a guide I wrote a few expansions back (I'm the author of the Wowhead guide mentioned in the description). I guess the RUclips algoritme sometimes does work?
His voice was essentially crafted to make informative WoW videos. So soothing.
Asmongold also has a guide on how to solo mythic RtK for the mount
What's RtK?
DOQ Studios Return to Karazhan. the mount drops on (and only on) regular mythic
Ah thanks!
Its not hard with tank spec. With Dh easy peasy.
Efkius im a warrior
Okay so I just watched this video and decided to do a mount run. Got Raven Lord and the Swift White Hawkstrider in just 30 minutes. Thank you so much for the vid !
Over 2.1k kills on sha of anger, and over 1.9k on nalak.... one day... one day...
Yep .1 is a little ridiculous imo
its like 1/4k so good luck
World of August its technically 1 in 1000
So you been farming Sha of Anger for 40 years? Lol. Right.
Wise Burger, you know you can have like 50+ characters per account that can all kill him every week right? Even a full realm of 12 characters could achieve 2.1k kills in a little over 3 years, which is entirely possible.
ICC wasn't working for me, so looked on other forums and found a solve. Tested and updated it, here it is. Got invincible while testing the method! After 4 years of farming him, it was a relief to finally have him drop! Here is the updated lockout method
Steps 1-3 if you don’t have healing on your main spec or whomever you want to clear the raid on, otherwise just do all of raid but lich king (don’t have to healing dragon at all).
1. Clear all but the healing dragon and lich king on your main on NORMAL 25 difficulty, or all but Lich King.
2. Create a group in the group finder with your main, still with difficulty set to NORMAL 25, and set to auto invite, and private if all your alts are in the same guild.
3. Log onto a healer who can solo the healing dragon, or get some help if you need. Make sure this character has their raid difficulty set to NORMAL 25 to match your main, and join your own group in group finder with The character you complete the Valythria encounter. Your main will NOT be saved even though he is in the group because this is normal difficulty.
4. You now have an 11/12 lockout on normal difficulty that can be joined by any character. Hearth out, leave group, and create a group in group finder, still with difficulty set to NORMAL 25. Auto invite on will make it faster for you to join your group.
5. Log onto whichever character you want to kill lich king, set your difficulty to NORMAL 25, and join your own group.
6. Zone into ICC. Accept the 11/12 lockout message. Leave the group, then change the difficulty to Heroic after the message saying you are in an instance that you are not a part of. It will ask if you want to accept being locked to the 11/12 Heroic instance, or leave instance and re-enter 25 man normal and switch to Heroic upon entering. Leave instance and re-enter with the lockout saved. (does not matter if you have killed him on normal, it will still switch to heroic.) Do not try to get multiple characters lockouts saved, it will mess up. Kill Lich king immediately after accepting lockout and re-entering instance.
7. Kill H LK 25.
8. Repeat steps 4-7 as many times as you have characters who can kill H LK 25 for as many weeks as you want.
9. Log back into your main, switch the difficulty to Heroic, and kill the Lich King. Once done with your main, the instance will be locked, so do him/her last.
Important notes: BOTH the character saving the lockout AND the character joining the lockout need to be set to NORMAL 25 or it will cause problems.
The character joining the lockout may NOT set the difficulty to Heroic until after zoning in and accepting the 11/12 normal.
If you follow these instructions precisely, you will have no trouble killing just H LK every week on multiple characters while avoiding a full ICC clear, no matter what anyone on here will tell you. It's not a bug or an exploit, it is how the lockout works.
The number one cause of any trouble is typically disagreement between the 2 characters' raid difficulties. Always make sure everyone is set to NORMAL 25 before you create or join your groups and it should go very smoothly.
Best of luck.
It no longer allows you to park alts and join group for ICC/Ulduar like in the video to speed runs on alts.
Just yesterday I was thinking to myself that I should see if you had a video on this subject. Perfect timing! Thanks, man :)
Just so u know sha of anger has a fixed spawn point now
Thanks for the info. I'll put this in my pinned comment
MadSeasonShow never pinned it #lmao
lolol
I really do appreciate your videos. Though not all are helpful for me and rather for newer players, it's really great to see how much time and effort you put into them compared to some other WoW RUclipsrs. Thanks for the great content.
Starting from Vanilla but you missed Rivendares Deathcharger from Stratholme
I was gonna point that out! lol How can you forget about that one?! Is the very first rare mount and so iconic.
it's not a daily or weekly farm mount, you can do it all day
its more likely resetable dungeon until lockout from resting to much mount
are you serious? i dont mean the caverns of time instance, i mean the regular stratholme.
the one in eastern plaguelands. the one with scarlet guys on one side and undead shit on the other side.
www.wowhead.com/item=13335
how about you go learn your shit?
And yeah, technically you can farm it all day. but theres a 5 instances per hour lockout which i find myself hitting really fast. so i just do 5 runs then leave and cry
got Astral Cloud Serpent first try, great guide! thx man!
I tried doing the clear all but one boss, but it seemed to saved the toon I cleared up to lk on aswell
same man, I think they have fixed it~ just tried it today :/
i just found your channel today but im already binge watching your content
damn. I just bought a sky golem. Then I saw the feelsteel annihilatior. Now I feel like having a outdated mount :( How do you get the new golden war frame from legion?
Gil Galade you have to reach exalted with Army of the Light, and pay a whopping 500k gold
yeah soon exalted, but short of 500k yet ^^
Gil Galade i have about 500k, but im stingy
Yeah, not sure it's really worth 500k. Maybe i should roll a goblin for discount.
+Gil Galade What's the price on a Communist Jewish Green Midget?
srsly, ur the best wow youtuber, so much respect from here
your videos are so relaxing :D
I want to support you man, but I just cant pay much at the moment. You, MHO, are the best WoW youtuber...
mythic Siege is piss easy to solo now that pretty much everyone has 910+ gear
you can also solo mythic Blackhand, but its much harder. make sure in the 2nd phase to get him by the wall with your back facing it by the times he casts Shattering Smash. if he does and you go on the balcony, the fight will reset. and in the 3rd phase, stay as far away from the edge as possible.
I was just casually doing Tempest Keep for some xmog and potential mount drop while watching this vid. It's probably only my 3rd run of this raid in my life and I got my Ashes of Al'ar
Your as lucky as a lotto winner of this is real which is probably not but if so gratz
Hey madseason.
Just letting you know you said the Pure Blood fire hawk and Flametalon of Alysrazor while in correcting its pronounced "A-Lis-Ra-Zor", you said these drop from Ragnaros and Alysrazor in dragon soul 😂
At 10:17
Other then that. Thanks heaps for the video!
Thanks! Updating my pinned comment now. Sorry about that.
MadSeasonShow
No need to apologize. You supply us with hours of great free content with no profit.
So, No, thank you.
One of the best mount farming guide videos, very detailed and well explained, great vid looking forward to part 2 for world mounts.
I'm sorry my friend but Midnight in Mythic+ (Legion) can be soloed. If you have a tank with decent ilvl ,920, you can clear the first boss and go directly to Midnight. Have been doing it for two weeks now, still no mount :(
Portuguesewowplayer it only drops on reg mythic.
My bad, i meant mythic 0 :P
Portuguesewowplayer or mythic 1. lol. i think mythic 0 would be heroic. mythic -1 normal
This was one of the most useful videos for wow that I've ever seen. Thank you so much, big props to you!
8:44 this one is disgusting to farm, i could have gotten it so much sooner than i did if i didnt have to wait for my faction to take control of that place all the time, im glad they havent done anything like that again
oh, who else got the smoldering ember wyrm first try? :D
TheDaxter11 you must be angry at BFA then.
Just wanted to thank you, I decided to try the method you mentioned and got Mimiron's head on my 3rd alt :)
Wait race tabards? you mean people didn't do that while leveling?
He mentioned getting your race tabards done but I always do them while leveling
Not everyone levels through dungeons! If you level via questing or other methods, you won't get the rep while leveling.
why would a new player know that?
A big tip for Elegon. If you are running on Heroic25, make sure you can do high DPS and drop him before 50% or whatever before he spawns the guy that will 1-shot a geared 110. This can be difficult if on a undergeared tank/healer or lvl100 toon.
The Amani Battle Bear isn't 100%, is around 95%. I needed 2 runs
wrong its 100 % drop if done correctly I have helped many members in my guild get it a lot
I dont know.. I needed 2 runs and Hirumared said in one of his mount videos that it's not 100%
you get the achievement for the dungeon before you get the mount that boss is killed last and the follow the npc when it breaks the 3 vases and the mount is in the 3rd vase (so kill "Halazzi" last ) works every time
chainexplorer nah its 92%, not 100, you've just gotten it for yourself and your guildies so much because 92% is still ridiculously high. I had to do it twice as well.
MadSeason, my young padawan, you are growing so fast! Like always, keep it up!
I appreciate it, Koen!
No stonecore??
That's farmable more than once a day if I recall correctly - I was going to save it for part 2
MadSeasonShow how? Thought that SC HC can't be reset.
It also drops from normal mode, so you can do 10/hr before you get locked out
The Vortex Pinacle, the dungeon of Uldum also drops a mount in normal mode
holy shit that trick for alts is insane ive been doing it wrong for YEARS. cant believe i just found this video
You can coin Midnight btw.
No you can't
You absolutely can.
You absolutely can't, find me evidence other than one guy on wowhead who just said it without any proof
What a retarded comment to make, just because you've never seen it coined doesn't mean it can't be coined, I know for a fact that you can coin it because I COINED it myself. Please educate yourself or look a fool.
What a retarded reply, you can't coin it and was probably too high to realise
Amazing guide and thank you for not blasting some annoying intro with edm music.
I feel like mounts are pointless now. i remember in vanilla/BC when getting a cool mount was actually awesome, but now there are way too many mounts! it kinda lost appeal
Mazxlol i collect mounts to flex in front of ppl. also for the goal of 300
Matsen115 i used to do that, over time i lost interest and now i honestly dont care and find it silly that i used to care! :D
Mazxlol To each their own. I still get amazed at some of the mounts i see and i still love collecting mine even though i mostly use my long-forgotten hippogryph.
Flippers true. I am honestly happy for you man, i wish i could once again enjoy the game as well but i completely lost interest to play wow due to WOD/Legion changes ;(
I feel like the only mounts that matter are current content raid mounts, and a handful of old hard-to-obtain mounts (Fiery Warhorse, Mimiron, Invincible, Sandstone Drake).
For Blast Furnace you can also be a rogue and "bribe" a guard, it's not exclusive to just a Priest.
what a cool little ability. i dont like it but its gone now :(
starting with vannila yet you miss Rivendares mount? for shame.
I dont even play wow but I enjoy watching these videos
"Asmongold also made a solo guide" Nah, He copied someone elses guide and said it was his.
Are there really many other ways to do a boss with scripted mechanics though? How can there really be any originality in that field. The only mark of quality is the clarity of the guide, of which, Asmongold's were really good!
amazingly thorough, i like that you added links for everything. great job!
I like kfc
Divinexve TriHard
I just ate kfc and was amazing
I really appreciate the work. You're one of my favorite channels! +I love your intro ^^
This may be one of the coolest most helpful videos ever :) Thank you so much saving this video to use from her eon out. Huge tytytytyty
Damn man your channel is getting big. Nice job!
For Siege. If you got First Aid you can always put bandages on the contaminated water thingy's. It WILL count as healing. Did it with my DH and you should also be able to solo some WOD content, cleared Highmaul and Blackrock Foundry solo
The LFG trick for ICC & Ulduar DO still work, contrary to a lot of comments below saying it has been fixed.
First step, log off all characters you want to run through outside the instance.
For Ulduar, clear up to Yogg on one character / use an old lockout. Then exit the instance and create a premade group (just a questing group is fine, but remember your alts Warmode needs to be turned on/off the same as your main or the group won't appear). Log onto your first alt, sign up, log back onto the character with the lockout and accept, then log back onto your alt and accept the invite. You can then enter the instance and kill Yogg then hearth your alt out. Your main won't get locked so you can just repeat.
For ICC, it's essentially the same. However, after killing the Lich King on your alt, it may appear that your mains is saved to the same lockout when you enter the instance but they aren't. I'm not sure exactly what does it, but you need to keep rezoning into the instance / changing difficulty settings until you're no longer given the "accept lockout" popup when zoning inside. Don't press accept, just exit the instance. Also, once it has worked and you enter on your alt to kill the LK, if the difficulty is on normal REMEMBER TO SWITCH IT TO HEROIC OR THE MOUNT WON'T DROP. Your main will be offline as leader, but after a few minutes you'll be automatically given leader and you can switch it.
Hope this helps somebody!
Ulduar and ICC still work but Dragon Soul and Mogu'shon Vaults and others do not.
I can't remember what patch it was introduced but Sha of Anger no longer spawns randomly through kun'lai summit, he only spawns at the middle top location show on the map in the video. This was because he dies so fast that if you weren't lucky enough to have him spawn at the location you were camping then the chances of you getting to it before it died was very slim.
That Diablo music near the end hit me right in the nostalgia
I would like to see more druid travel form options. Letting druids select mounts to be travel forms would be neat, too.
fantastic MadSeason :D this is going to help me big time! thank you for taking the time to do this video :D
Just a minor one, the skip in HFC doesn't take you straight to Archimonde, it's to Mannoroth first, then Archimonde, not sure if anyone else pointed that out :)
Started playing 4 weeks ago and wanted a cool mount. Got twilight and black drake asap cause they were easy and twilight is kinda cool.
I decided to kill sha of anger, kalethas(raid), mylagors, and mogushun vaults for the mounts. Nothing the first or second week, obviously no big deal. Week 3 fricken ashes or Al'ar....Week 4 Invincible
WTF thank you sir wouldn't have done this without this video
From the Cataclysm part, you have missed the Vitreous Stone Drake from Slabhide in the Stonecare, and the Drake of the North wind from Altairus in the Vortex Pinnacle.
Nice guide, will have to try this guide! keep the cool guides MadSeasonShow
Awesome info video even in 2020 my Paladin got the Astral Cloud Serpent 1st try. Also I had no idea about the bronze drake drop every group I've ever been in skipped killing that side boss so I never got it or knew it was there.
I wish everybody going for that Swift Zulian Panther good luck! Went there every day for half a year, starting at my 1st toon while levelling when I started in mid legion, and ending with 3 toons. After that I had a break, running it every now and then (once or twice a week) before picking it up again lately, and running it approximately 20times a week or more across 8toons, and just got it the other week. First mount I tried to get, and I'm looking forward to not flying and using it in Shadowlands, that's how much effort I put into it! 😭😂
Great video, really appreciate it. I have quite a few but missing some upon my return..you should do a video on what you can no longer get and rep faction mounts, if you haven't already
I know it's not a daily or weekly, but the one mount I can think from vanilla dungeon or raid, Rivendare's Deathcharger, should be worth a mention.
Thank you! It’s great video but sadly the “auto accept” has been removed so I can no longer use multiple character to farm mount in your way. This is sad
There is an addon called --- "PremadeAutoAccept" --- which returns this functionality. You do have to checkbox the roles you want to auto-accept as the default is toggled to off for all roles, but once it's on, it's on.
You should also mention regarding Skaldi that you can run pass the first two bosses in the instance.
Dungeon mounts can drop in timewalkers aswell btw, got the white birdy thingy in TW, had it tho. So traded it away to a guildie I did it with, he was very happy.
I got the Charhound on my first try and heard the drop rate is actually not bad. Super cool mount.
Was that Chrono trigger music, excelent video man, cool edits, thank you
I'm collecting mounts to get the 200 mounts dragonhawk. Just what i needed, Thx man!
Hope it helps...good luck!
World of Warcraft raid journal says that the Blazing Drake is achievable on all difficulties, and that it is the Life-Binder’s Handmaiden that can only be achieved on Heroic.
Love all your guides, always helped me.
6:00 actually no, the bear is a 92% chance drop, it is not a guaranteed 100% drop, even beating the time limit.
I was running icc 25h to get the blood quest for Shadowmourne done on my warrior, and I needed two friends with me to complete it. Once it was done they asked to finish the raid with me for transmog. So OF COURSE invincible drops. Literally the 6th time I had been in there. And of course I didn't win it. Pissed me off because loot is set when you zone in, so if I had made them leave, it would have been all mine.
And THEN, the same friend who won invincible was farming firelands with me for transmog, and the mount off of rag drops! But I won that one, thank god.
Got Anzu first try, White Hawkstrider after 5-6 tries, Ashes took me 10 - 12 tries, Black War Mammoth at the fourth full clean (there is a glitch to come in even if your faction don't control Wintergrasp) and blue drake at 7 tries. What a luck !
Edit : I got them all during the same month when returning IG after many years (2011) !
Okay MadSeasonShow is one of my favorite WoW related youtube channels, but I am really sick of people trashing Warlords of Draenor, it really was a good expansion.
