Episode # 23: Mounting up, old style!

Click here to listen to the audio short!

Intro

Long ago, players were given the chance to obtain two very unique, and special mounts! Today we will be talking about how to get those mounts so that you too can enjoy them! Since there is no flying for the foreseeable future, you might as well stock up on ground mounts anyway, right?

Wild Frostsaber

Getting Started

There is a mount for each faction. The Alliance is able to obtain the Winterspring Frostsaber, and the Horde can acquire the Venomhide Ravasaur. The Alliance players can head to Winterspring, and atop Frostsaber Rock they will meet Rivern Frostwind, who will give you the quest "Get them while they're young." This will have you gathering frostsaber cubs and will serve as your introduction to the faction.

Baby!!!

Next, you get a quest called, "They grow up so fast." This quest asks you to return with twenty [Winterspring Cub Whisker]. This item is received by finishing one of the random, daily quests that you are given when you summon your cub. This means that unless you engage in some sort of workaround, it will take you twenty days to polish off this faction.

Alliance Location

Horde Location

As a Horde character, you will need to head to Un'Goro Crater and find Mor'Vek in the southeast area of the zone. You will have a similar line of quests including an introduction titled "The Toxic Tolerance" followed by twenty days of collecting [Venomhide Baby Tooth] 

 

Faction quest givers

What am I working towards?

For Alliance players: Once you have everything needed for "They grow up so fast," you will be exalted and receive [Reins of the Winterspring Frostsaber] and [Cubs First Toy], a cute portrait of your frostsaber cub.If you are a Horde player: after your nearly identical quest line you finally receive your [Whistle of the Venomhide Raptor] 

Another Frostsaber

Conclusion

Times are tough for those of us who enjoy flying mounts, but let's make the best of the situation. No matter what faction you fight for, here is an easy to get, unique mount for you. So go out there and add this one to your collection!


See you back here next week with another tip! If you have a faction you would like me to spotlight, leave me a comment. Take care, and may the light be with you!
