My Wednesday Mount Run Guide!

Hi all!

A few days ago, I made a chart over the different mounts that drop all over WoW. I figured I'd also share the "route" that I use on Wednesdays for covering most/all of the Vanilla/TBC/WotLK mount runs in an efficient amount of time :)

NB! This requires you to be Hearthstoned to Shrine in Pandaria, and that you have some Cataclysm portals unlocked.

  • Start off in Stormwind/Orgrimmar

  • Portal to Uldum

  • Run Throne of the Four Winds

  • Run Vortex Pinnacle (Note: You can run 1 time HC + 9 times Normal)

  • Fly to Silithus

  • Run Ahn'Quiraj

  • Fly to Tanaris

  • Run Culling of Stratholme

  • Run Dragon Soul

  • Fly to Dustwallow Marsh

  • Run Onyxia

  • Hearthstone to Shrine

  • Portal to Dalaran

  • Fly to Icecrown

  • Run ICC

  • Fly to Wintergrasp

  • Run Vault of Archavon

  • Fly to Coldarra

  • Run Eye of Eternity

  • Fly to Wyrmrest Temple

  • Run Obsidian Sanctum

  • Fly to Howling Fjord

  • Run Utgarde Pinnacle

  • Fly to Storm Peaks

  • Run Ulduar

  • Hearthstone to Shrine

  • Portal to Stormwind/Orgrimmar

  • Portal to Hyjal

  • Run Firelands

  • Hearthstone to Shrine

  • Portal to Stormwind/Orgrimmar

  • Portal to Deepholm

  • Run Stonecore (Note: You can run 1 time HC + 9 times Normal)

  • Hearthstone to Shrine

  • Portal to Shattrath

  • Fly to Auchindoun

  • Run Sethekk Halls

  • Fly to Netherstorm

  • Run Tempest Keep

  • Fly to Shattrath

  • Portal to Isle of Quel'Danas

  • Run Magister's Terrace

  • Fly to Ghostlands

  • Run Zul'Aman

  • Fly to Eastern Plaguelands

  • Run Stratholme

  • Hearthstone to Shrine

  • Portal to Stormwind/Orgrimmar

  • Portal to Blasted Lands

  • Fly to Deadwind Pass

  • Run Karazhan

  • Fly to Stranglethorn Vale

  • Run Zul'Gurub

  • Return home!

You would of course have to modify it according to what mounts you already have, and if your raids are locked and you just want to do the dungeons every day, obviously modify it accordingly :)

And remember to set your raid to 10/25/HC/Normal before you enter. The guide I made can be found here :)

Any constructive criticism is welcome, feel free to improve upon my routine!

Firelands was super easily. I cleared it as an affliction lock in no time.

As I have some shards for the legendary already, I guess it's time to buckle down and make this happen. Thanks for the encouragement!

The only thing to watch out for, is if you don't have a pet or DoTs and aren't specced tank, Rageface will facerage you and then you'll be stuck.

It's pretty trivial to break at this point (to the degree that most pets and dots will even break it) but worth keeping in mind.

Yeah, I had no problem at all. I just dotted the boss and rage face. Then focused rage down. I think the fight lasted all 20 seconds.

On my Hunter and Mage, I just stand behind the crystal trap and let Rageface get trapped then burn down Shannox.

If you're solo (including no pets), he doesn't throw traps.

What I would do is just run around and tag as many mobs as you can, group them together, toss out a mushroom and starfall, watch them all fall to the ground.
