All the known upcoming mounts of 10.1 and how to get them

[Scumstation]

Heya fellow mountfarmers! So, I obtained quite a few mounts on the 10.1 ptr, and figured out how to get the rest & wanted to share a quick guide on how to obtain all of them. I’ll include both written & video guides.

Keep in mind that more mounts may actually be found once 10.1 goes live. I already have 1 on this list that can't be found in the mountjournal on the PTR, but I've found ingame, so they may or may not be hiding some mounts. Also ofcourse all information is based off of ptr and might be sligtly changed before release, but i doubt it.

Cheers!


Winding Slitherdrake (New Dragonriding Mount)

You get this from doing chapter 3 of the new campaign available. Doesn’t take too long.


Big slick in the City.

Video Guide:

Written guide:

This racing snail mount comes from a Secret reputation called Glimerogg Racer. It starts from Briggul in the southern part of Zaralek Caverns in the small town Glimmerogg, located at /way 44.24 79.95

First you’ll get a quest that requires you to get introduced to Slick, and from there your training of your diamond snail begins.

(Prerequisite to get introduction quest: Complete 📷 Pay to Play & 📷 Favor on the Side from Brogg the Beast at /way 43.79, 82.97)

After this, you’ll get 1 quest a day from Briggul all with the one purpose in mind, to train Big Slick in Da city. You’ll get a Conch whistle so you can summon him as a non permanent mount. Sometimes you’ll need to Kill Djaradin to get snail supplies, sometimes you’ll have to race train your Big Slick in da City around the track nearby, sometimes you Ride on slick in the other Dragon Isles zones to get him accustomed to being your mount, and a ton of other activities.

The quests give you 100 rep each, and they DO benefit from rep increase buffs like the Darkmoonfairebuff & the human racial ability diplomacy.

There is another way to obtain reputation, and that is by showing briggul different Battlepet snails from outside Zaralek Caverns. Once you summon a max level Snail battlepet near briggul, you’ll be offered a onetime quest called Snailspiration:& then the snails name. Completing this will give you 100 reputation. Keep in mind the pets needs to be level 25, or you will not be offered the quest.

Here is a list of all 15 battlepets that help you gain reputation.

Amethyst Softshell, Archetype of Vigilance, Blackchasm Crawler, Microlicid, Mudshell Conch, Predatory Helicid, Prismatic Softshell, Rapana Whelk, Rusty Snail, Scooter the Snail, Shelly, Shimmershell Snail, Silkbead Snail, Spireshell Snail, Zoom

Anyway. To get Slick as a mount you need to max out this reputation, and you start at rank 1, and need to reach rank 5. Every rank needs 700 reputation, so it’ll take you around 4 weeks without reputation buffs & battlepets to reach max rank. & the fastest you can reach max rank is 1 week and 2 days with all reputation buffs and all battlepets. Once you become a professional Snailracer, Briggul will simply hand over Big Slick in da City to you as a reward.



Boulder Hauler

Video Guide: Boulder Hauler 1 Minute Mount Guide | 10.1 Embers of Neltharion | Barter Brick & Boulder

This version of the Shalewing mounts comes from a vendor called ponzo located at

/way 58.09 53.82

in the city Loamm, to purchase it you’ll need 84 Barter Boulders & 99 Barter Pebble.

The barter boulders have a couple of different Sourcers

First you’ll need renown 12 to be able to obtain boulders from any source.

But Before you reach renown 12 you’ll receive barter bricks instead of boulders, from all the sources that i’ll mention now, which can be traded for boulders at ponzo at renown 12.

So

Once you reach renown 3 with the Niffen you can get Bartering quests in Valdrakken from Kayann at

/way 36.47 62.47

Two of these reward you with 5 boulders and can be obtained weekly. What you need to do is bring profession materials & items and trade them with the different profession people in Loamm for barter boulders.

You can also get some from bonus quests that you receive while Sniffenseeking, which is a treasure room hunt you can start here in Loamm.

Furthermore you can get some from treasures around zaralek Caverns & you can also purchase barter boulders for dragon isles supplies from the Niffen Quartermaster

/way#2133 56.38 55.63

You will also receive some barter boulders as rewards for progressing the Niffen renown.

To get the 99 pebble, you just need to trade 1 boulder to 100 pebble at ponzo.


Seething Slug

Video Guide:



This mount is a reward from a hidden treasure in the Zaralek caverns.

First thing you wanna do is head to Zaralek Caverns and to the westmost area, the Zaqali Caldera. The treasure is located in this area. To find it you’ll have to gather three Seething Orbs. Whenever you click one of these orbs you’ll gain 1 stack of Insidious insight. Upon reaching three stacks you’ll see a system message across your screen saying “ You hear a dark hiss from the Northern Shrine” and the treasure will be visible to you. But first you have to find the orbs, they are quite small, and they don’t shine at all, unlike most interactable objects. Also they have several different spawnpoints. So far 7 different spawn spots have been reported, included the spots i found, and there’s probably even more. I’ll have coords for all the spots listed at the end of the post, and i will update whenever a new spot is found. Anyway, these are the 7 known locations so far. If you’re having trouble locating the orbs i can recommend dying and flying around as a spirit, as the zaqali caldera is an area that is filled with elite mobs, and has a semi flight restriction in form of a stacking debuff that will demount you when it reaches 10 stacks. Also all mobs disappear in the zone when you are dead and far away from your corpse, so your vision will not be blocked by mobs. On top of being hard to find, they are sometimes not up at all, but if you find 1 orb, there will guaranteed be 3 orbs up. So when you’ve found 3 orbs, and gained the three stacks of insidious insight, head to /way #2133 32.33 39.35 and you’ll see i bigger orb inside a shrine. Click it and you’ll get the Seething Slug mount straight into your bags.

The IMO easy to get mounts of 10.1:


Igneous Shalewing & Subterranean Magmammoth

These are bundled as they have the same source, but different amounts of currency needed.

These mounts are sold by a vendor called Saccratos in Loamm, the Niffen city at

/way #2133 55.9 55.37

The shalewing is sold for 400 Coveted Baubles & the Magmammoth is sold for 100 coveted baubles. The Coveted baubles are bought, from a vendor right next to Saccratos, called Spinsoa. He sells them for Unearthed Fragrant coins. Unearthed Fragrant coins are primarily earned through rare public events in the zaralek Caverns. These events range from a ton of different stuff, but primarily feel like funny worldquests. They reward with dirt-covered pouches, some of which are rare quality and some of which are epic. The rare pouches contain 2-3 unearthed coins each, & the epic contains 5-6 each so you’ll have to complete quite a few. You can find the rare events pretty much all over the Zaralek Caverns, you’ll have some in Glimmerogg, some in Loamm, some at the zaqali Caldera and some around Aberrus. They can be completed daily and will be marked on your map with a little horn when you’re close to an ongoing event. Another way to get some Fragrant unearthed coins is the public event Researchers under fire. This even happens once every hour, in the middle of Zaralek Caverns

At /way 47.58 56.75

For completing this event, the first time every week you’ll get a bag called researchers gift, and in this bag you’ll find about 15 unearthed fragrant coins.

And while we’re at the researchers under fire event, i might as well mention



The Cataloged Shalewing.

This mount has a chance to be contained in the researcher’s gift, which was the first treasure you get weekly from the researchers under fire event, which means You can only get 1 researchers gift every week on each character, much like the grand hunts, you’ll get a worse treasure for repeat completions, where there is not a chance to receive the mount

Morsel Sniffer

Can be purchased from the Niffen renown quartermaster at renown 18 with the Loamm Niffen, for 800 Dragon Isles Supplies


Cobalt Shalewing

This beautiful nightmare inducing sporebat is a mount that comes as a drop from the rarespawn called Kairoktra, located in the Zaralek Caverns at this location:

/way #2133 42.23 65.26, you can kill this Rarespawn once a day per character for a chance of it dropping, the dropchance is presumably around 1-5% as with most previous rarespawn mounts. The respawn timer is unknown, but it seems to be extremely long, as i usually only saw this rare twice a day on the ptr. I suggest using the dungeon finder tools to see if any groups are up for Kairoktra, if it’s not up on your layer.


Felcrystal Scorpion

This will show up in the trading post at some point. For now it’s been officially added to the mountjournal.
