Classic Rare Mounts Guide

In WoW Classic your options for fast travel can seem quite restricted so the use of mounts becomes necessary. For some mounts become another collectible obtaining of which becomes their main aim, others might just want to get the mount that would fit their character perfectly. In both of these cases, players have to spend significant time on the mount they want to get if its rarity is high. Rarest mounts are given as a reward for some significant time and effort spent on the game. You might have to fulfill some complex quest or spend a lot of time farming the same mobs or bosses in order to get the drop of the needed item. For some the most difficult to acquire are the mounts that are connected with PvP, after all, some might prefer to stick to PvE or find competing with other players way too challenging. 

Here we are providing the list of some of the rarest mounts in Classic and the ways of getting them into your possession if you got interested.

Deathcharger

While this mount may have a blue quality it is quite rare, as players have a really low potential for obtaining it. The Deathcharger looks a lot like the standard mounts on the Forsaken faction, it is the same skeleton horse but in this case, it also has heavy armor on and some very large horns that look like they belong to an antelope. As Alliance lacks in Undead mounts this is one of the little options for you if this type of mount is your preference.

Where to obtain: Stratholme

Drop rates: 0.02%

How to obtain: To get the drop of the mount you will need to gather the team for the dungeon that will be skillful and be willing to repeat this run multiple times. Get ready for the repetitiveness. Also, you need to consider that the needed dungeon, Stratholme, is believed to be one of the most difficult in the game and the boss with the drop, Rivendare, will not be an easy one, after all, he is the final one. All in all, you will just have to repeat the runs over and over again until you get what you want.

Winterspring Frostsaber

Frostsaber is another Alliance mount and you will need to be very patient as well but this time it is a reward for the special quest. The length of this task comes from the tight connection with the reputation with the corresponding fraction which is not as challenging as dealing with raids or dungeons.

Where to obtain: Winterspring

How to obtain: To get the mount you will need to dedicate a significant amount of time to farming for reputation points in Winterspring. The achievement of the Exalted level is earned through the completion of repeatable quests designed specifically for this purpose. As you can only get 50 points for each 15 -minutes mission, you will need to follow this work more than 8 hundred times. Though, if you really need a complete collection of mounts, then it will be worth it.

Black Qiraji Resonating Crystal

Is not quite easy to get as well and it is also a reward for the special quest, Scepter of the Shifting Sands. As it is the only legendary mount in Classic, it is very desired by a large group of WoW players. To succeed in this endeavor you will again need to spend the limited time very wisely.

Where to obtain: Ahn'Qiraj event

How to obtain: The mount can be earned by those who manage to ring the Scarab Gong in the 10 hours time limit to get the right to receive the needed mount. You can consider the Scepter of the Shifting Sands as a part of this quest as otherwise, you will not be able to get to this part. In this quest, you will have to face many challenges so get ready for all that will be waiting for you and find the right time as all the 10 hours will need to be spent in the game.

Swift Zulian Tiger and Swift Razzashi Raptor

Where to obtain: Zul'Gurub

Drop rates: below 1 percent

How to obtain: Like the Razzashi Raptor, that we will talk about later, Zulian Tiger has chances to be dropped during your time in Zul'Gurub. The difference is that it can be acquired from the boss Thekal. You will need to repeat the raid multiple times to get the desired item. But if you are already on the task you will also have a chance to get the Raptor mount too. Razzashi Raptor is also a very rare mount (drop rate is below 1 percent) that becomes possible to obtain from Phase 4 and on. The boss that can provide you with this mount is Bloodlord Mandokir.

On the whole, the main problem for both of them is the raid you will need to get a run-through and to add to that not just once. You will need to learn the tactics that will be most effective for each boss and gathering a skillful team can also take some time, so do your best to prepare. And you can not just rely on your team, high-quality gear for your character will also be needed.

PvP Mounts

Where to obtain: Raider Bork in Alterac Valley, Arathi Basin, and Warsong Gulch.

How to obtain: Generally, these black-colored mounts can only be purchased by characters who have managed to get the 11th rank. That generally means that you will have to learn to deal with various other players as opponents that usually are far more challenging than what you have already faced in PvE, especially when you are planning to get to the top ranks. Alterac Valley battlegrounds will become the main location you will spend your time on. 

For each fraction, there are 4 PvP mounts available that are tied to each race so there will be no real choice, though it is a great opportunity to show off your skills in all the possible situations and commemorate the achievement of the 11th rank.

Another mount that is connected to your PvP activity and rather rare is the Battle Charger. To get the right to purchase this one you will need the highest possible level of reputation with Stormpike Guard, which also means active participation in PvP there.

Conclusion

This is far from the whole list, but those mounts represent some of the rarest and desired mounts in Classic. If you are planning on getting any of them you need to be sure you are up to the task as in the majority of these cases you will both need a lot of time and real proficiency in the game. If you wish to avoid the problematic part, you might want to look into Mount Boosting Services. 

If you are having any problems with either Mounts or any other aspect of the game, you can check out the services by CakeBoost. You can also take a look into Leveling as it might be the most time-consuming activity in the game lacking any challenge for those who prefer to get right into PvP or raids and dungeons.
