Pet and mount guides now follow the live game
The pet and mount guides now use the data of the live game. They list 96 pets and 133 mounts. Six pets and three mounts are new, and every racial mount now shows the quest at level 40 that gives it for free.
Your first mount comes from a quest
Blizzard said before the launch that the first mount is free and that the gold goes to the riding training instead. The game now shows how: at level 40 a quest lets you pick one mount of a racial type.
| Mounts | Quest | Faction |
|---|---|---|
| Horses | Your First Horse | Alliance |
| Rams | Your First Riding Ram | Alliance |
| Mechanostriders | Your First Mechanostrider | Alliance |
| Sabers | Your First Feline Friend | Alliance |
| Wolves | Your First Riding Wolf | Horde |
| Raptors | Your First Riding Raptor | Horde |
| Kodos | Your First |
Horde |
| Skeletal horses | A Steed in Death as They Were in Life | Horde |
| Galestriders | Your First Riding Galestrider | Both |
Five mounts that had no known source come from these quests:
Black Wolf,
Striped Dawnsaber,
Black Skeletal Horse,
Lavender Kodo and
White Kodo. Every mount page now names its quest next to the vendor. Whether the quest also works for a second character, is not known.
Nine new pets and mounts
Three mounts are new in the game files, all at level 60 with
Journeyman Riding: the Spectral Wolf Pack, the Verdant Sea Turtle and the Crimson Rooster. On the
Spectral Wolf Pack, up to two party members can join you when you mount.
Six pets are new: Azurky, Pinky, Gill’el, the Blossoming Ancient, which changes with the seasons, the Viridian Lashling and the Frosty Lashling. Where these nine come from, is not known yet. Their pages get updated as soon as players find it.
What else changed
- The Baby Crocolisk drops from Sewer Beast in Stormwind City, in about 4.4% of kills.
- The Condor Hatchling comes from the Shaking Egg, which Lord Condar drops in Loch Modan, in about 1.4% of kills.
- Weevil K. Neevil is the reward of the quest My Little Friends, from level 25.
- The Pet Stone and the Pet Fish no longer drop from monsters.
- The Minimule needs Revered with your supply faction before you can buy its
Packmule Treat. - Minfernal and the
Snowy Wolf Pup no longer carry the tooltip of another pet.
Every pet and mount is in the pet guide and the mount guide, in all six languages.
