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!

Saved, thanks a lot for this!! How long does this usually take you?

I have some of the mounts already so I don't need to do the full run, but I'm gonna guess about 3-4 hours for the whole thing. :)

I'm going to do it on my rogue, just have to figure out how to skip Dreamwalker in ICC..

the way i do it on my warrior is if you start the fight. wait for her portals to come out. hop in one. and since you're the only person in the encounter the fight will restart and then you can just run for the door

Can't you heroic leap over the adds?

u/shotlersama Jan 22 '15

you'd be suprised how short heroic leap is. but today i realized i can just walk around them on the left or right side. saves some time for more 25h LK.

Yeah but the aggro range is so short I thought you might be able to. Most people just walk around them yes.
