Warcraft Mounts: A field guide to mounts in the World of Warcraft.

Trading Post ~ March

A montage of in-game screenshots of mounts for the March Trading post. Top row: two flying quilt mounts. Like flying carpets but with a quilt-like texture in a triangles-and-diamonds patchwork pattern, some squares have moons on them. The corner tassels are like lance-shaped leaves. Top left: Comfy Bel’ameth Flying Quilt: in fuchsia and blue-purple. Top right: Comfy Silvermoon Flying Quilt: in lighter and darker reds. Bottom row, from left to right: Pearlescent Butterfly - a seemingly mechcanical butterfly with opalescent eyes, metallic edging, a gorgeous leadlighting-style wings in a gradation of yellows, oranges, fuchsia and blues with brass edges. It sports a crown on its head with a yellow, magnolia-like flower in it, and has a simple metal spear in its front right leg. Ruby Butterfly: A similar butterfly mount to the above but with crimson wings and eyes, a metallic dark blue body, and a red flower in its crown. Shimmermist Free Runner: An Ardenweald dreamrunner mount (a unicorn with an elegantly curved sickle-like horn. It has a white body, shading to purple in its lower legs, purple hair on its legs, tail tip, and a mane of cyan grading to purple at the tips. Its horn has the texture of a rich brown piece of wood.

The March Trading Post introduces a snuggly new mount model - the comfy flying quilt - in two colours. The purple Comfy Bel'ameth Flying Quilt is this month's bonus reward (simply cap your Trader's Tender coin earnings for the month), while the red Comfy Silvermoon Flying Quilt can be purchased for 550 Trader's Tender. Three previously-available mounts are also returning: the Pearlescent Butterfly and Ruby Butterfly are 500 tendies each, while the mystical Shimmermist Free Runner steed is a modest 325.

Paladin Charger updates are now live!

A 2x2 comparison of Midnight updated appearances for the WoW human and blood elf paladin class mounts: the Charger (top) and Thalassian Charger (bottom). Originals on the left, with a teal arrow pointing to the updated versions on the right. The model is a fairly faithful update to the original (which dates back to Vanilla!). In both models the mount is a horse with bright glowing eyes, golden plate barding over much of the head and back of neck with long metal spikes along the ridge, golden metal shields on the shoulders and base of neck, metal coverings over the hooves, and a heavy coat over the body in race colours, with gold detailing. The Charger (human, top) has an Alliance blue coat. The original has very pale glowing eyes, but the update has an orange-gold glow. The Thalassian Charger (blood elf, bottom) has a Horde or Blood Elf red coat with an orange eye glow.

With little fanfare, the human and blood elf paladin mounts have just been updated! The human paladin Charger and blood elf Thalassian Charger steeds now sport gorgeous, updated looks that are remarkably faithful to originals that were over 20 years old. A new white colour variant, the Relinquished Scarlet Charger will be obtainable after Midnight launch.

Midnight Looms

The end of an expansion is nigh. The Midnight pre-patch begins this week! There are three new mounts (that we know of) and only one is available during the first week: the stunning, purple Anu'shalla, Shadow's Guidance should be available straight away to anyone who has collected 600 mounts usable by a single character on their account. The two other mounts: the teal Retrained Skyrazor and citrine Light-Forged Mechsuit can be obtained through the 'Twilight Ascension' event in the Twilight Highlands which begins on week two (27th of January). Please see our patch guide for more information, and have fun!
