![]() This mount drops from The Nine in the Sanctum of Domination raid on all difficulties including LFR. Every now and again, though, there’s a mount that drops on non-Mythic difficulty that can be farmed and for Shadowlands that’s the Sanctum Gloomcharger. In the case of the Mythic final boss mounts that’s not a huge deal as it’s already difficult to get them if you’re not a Mythic raider. Raids generally become a lot harder to farm in the next expansion simply because you still need a group to run them and not as many players willing to do so. You’re going to need a lot of help: Sanctum Gloomcharger Korthia is currently still well-populated so if you ask in chat someone may have seen her, but next expansion most players will have moved on so acquisition will require more legwork on your part. Acquisition is pretty simple: find her and /pet her on six different days. Maelie the Wanderer was added in patch 9.1, and she can be found some days in Korthia. Once Dragonflight comes out it’ll likely disappear from the AH so you’ll need to craft your own via the Ascended Crafting system. Originally this was a premium product, but with the expansion winding down and the new cross-realm Auction House for commodities, you can pick up a few of these for under 200g apiece on NA servers - I definitely recommend getting a few at first because landing the glide can be tricky for some. Sundancer is a perfect example of this, not because of CRZ or spawn rates, but because the Skystrider Glider required to get Sundancer won’t be available for cheap on the AH. ![]() Much easier now than later: Sundancer and MaelieĪ couple of the mounts won’t actually become harder in Dragonflight but they’ll definitely become a lot more annoying. Unlike Blanchy it’s not a guaranteed acquisition, but the drop rate is higher than typical for a mount rare so farming shouldn’t take as long as it does for other rares. Fortunately his arrival is announced to all of the Maw, so you tend to have players willing to engage the rare so it doesn’t despawn at the end of its run. The Fallen Charger is similar in that it spawns irregularly - from multiple possible spawn points! - and takes off after spawning. Having multiple players camping on different servers willing to post in groupfinder when they’ve stopped Blanchy made this mount easier to obtain at the start of the expansion, and while most players have obtained the mount already you still see them posting occasionally so keep an eye on it while camping yourself. It doesn’t help that she takes off running after spawning so you’ll need to camp the right spot, and once stopped she only lingers for five minutes. Blanchy’s biggest obstacle is the fact that you need to encounter her six days before you can receive her as a mount. ![]() Sinrunner Blanchy and the Fallen Charger both will have fewer spawns available due to CRZ but they also have other impediments to easy farming. ![]() Once we get into Dragonflight though the number of instances currently running will plummet, and that’s bad news for those relying on cross-realm alerts for mounts with long respawn timers. The more players camping the merrier: Sinrunner Blanchy and the Fallen ChargerĬurrently in the Shadowlands zones you’re less likely to see players from other servers because cross-realm zones (aka CRZ) isn’t fully turned on for new content. Here are five mounts we’ve identified that you’re better off targeting before Dragonflight launches. Typically a new expansion means prior mounts become easier to collect - open world rares like Famu and Hopecrusher become readily soloable - but there’s always a handful that seem to get more difficult to farm, or at the very least way more annoying (and not just because you’d rather be playing the new expansion instead of mucking about in the old one). While the development team was nice enough to post what mounts are going away soon, they are not the only ones collectors should be concentrating on. Shadowlands isn’t over yet, though, and while we wait to go over to the Dragon Isles many players are looking to finish up collecting the mounts from the expansion (or taking advantage of the lull to revisit old expansions for mounts). Dragonflightlaunches on November 28 and with it brand new zones to explore and mounts to collect.
