You might not be aware that beyond the walls of your garrison lies the potential to amass a collection of mounts, each with their own unique flair and utility. As you’ve toiled to build up your stronghold in Draenor, you’ve also unlocked opportunities to command a variety of beasts and mechanical wonders, from the sturdy clefthooves to the swift wolves, that signify your achievements and status. The Stables offer a path to bond with and train creatures that can carry you to victory, while the Fishing Shack holds secrets beneath its waters that only the most patient can claim. But it’s not just about what you can see; hidden within your garrison’s operations are mounts that require a keen eye for strategic missions and a dedication to the crafts that sustain your forces. As you consider the breadth of your dominion, remember that the true measure of a leader is not just in the battles won, but also in the loyalty of the mounts they command. Stay vigilant, for in the next few moments, you’ll uncover the full extent of the rewards that await within your garrison’s embrace.
Garrison Stables Mounts
Within the Garrison’s Stables, you’ll find a range of quests and achievements that can earn you unique mounts like the Trained Snarler and Trained Silverpelt. These special mounts become yours after diligent work using your garrison resources to upgrade and maintain the stables. As you embark on training mounts, you’ll lasso a mount in training—like the Silverpelt-In-Training—and bond with it through various challenges.
By venturing out into Draenor, you’ll engage in daily training quests. During these, your mount-in-training will be your steed as you take down formidable beasts. This hands-on experience transforms your companion from a simple training mount to an actual mount that represents your dedication and skill.
Don’t overlook the garrison stables mounts that come as rewards for your achievements. As you progress, completing the required tasks, you’ll unlock even more mounts, such as the Armored Frostwolf and Armored Frostboar, each with their own unique flair. So saddle up and get ready to ride—your garrison stables are the gateway to a stable full of majestic creatures waiting for your command.
Fishing Shack Rewards
Venturing beyond the Stables, you’ll discover that your Fishing Shack offers its own exclusive rewards, including the sought-after Reins of the Crimson Water Strider for those who cozy up to Nat Pagle. To snag this mount, you’ll need to reach Best Friends status with Nat, which can be a bit of a fishing marathon. But it’s worth it, as this mount glides over water, making your travels across Draenor a breeze.
As you upgrade your Fishing Shack to Level 3, Nat Pagle can be recruited to your garrison’s town hall. He brings with him the Angler trait, allowing you to catch elusive lunkers without bait. These lunkers can be exchanged for Nat’s Lucky Coins, which you can then use to purchase items like the garn-tooth necklace. This nifty trinket not only increases mount speed but also gives you a bit of an edge during those intense garrison invasions.
Speaking of which, while defending your garrison, keep an eye out for the ironside warwolf—a reward from the Invaders’ Forgotten Treasure. It’s a rare drop, but if fortune favors you, you’ll be howling with joy as you ride this fierce companion through the wilds of Draenor.
Invasion Mount Acquisitions
While securing Nat Pagle’s friendship at your Fishing Shack paves the way to aquatic adventures, defending your garrison from invasions can reward you with mounts like the ironside warwolf, adding terrestrial might to your collection. These invasions aren’t just for defending your pride as a commander; they’re a golden opportunity to snag some impressive mounts.
When you repel invasions, you’re not just doing it for honor; you’re in it for the loot, right? And the loot includes some stunning mounts. Let’s dive into how you can get your hands on these beasts:
- Garn Steelmaw: This fierce wolf can be yours if luck is on your side when you open the Invader’s Forgotten Treasure.
- Giant Coldsnout: Your foes might shiver in fear, not from the cold, but from the sight of you on this formidable boar.
- Smoky Direwolf: Blend into the shadows or stand out in a crowd with this smoky companion.
- Shadowhide Pearltusk: This mount adds a touch of mystique to your collection with its elusive charm.
Profession Crafted Mounts
You’ll often find that some of the most unique mounts in World of Warcraft are those you can create through your own crafting skills. Take the Creeping Carpet, for example; if you’ve honed your Tailoring to level 700, you can weave this magical rug using Hexweave Cloth and Sorcerous Air. It’s not just a statement piece for your home—it’s a fully functional mount that’ll have you gliding across the landscape in style.
Leatherworkers aren’t left out of the fun, either. With Leatherworking also at level 700, you can craft the Riding Harness, requiring Burnished Leather and Sorcerous Air. This rugged mount isn’t just a testament to your crafting prowess—it’s a robust companion for all your adventures across Draenor.
Garrison Mission Mounts
As a commander of your own garrison, you have the unique opportunity to dispatch followers on missions that can reward exclusive mounts such as the Coalfist Gronnling from the ‘Breaker Two’ mission. These missions aren’t just about the gold or resources—they’re your ticket to some of the most unique and impressive mounts in Draenor.
Your followers are key; their traits and abilities increase your chances of success. Remember, the higher the mission’s difficulty, the better the potential rewards. Keep them well-equipped and active, and you might just add an extraordinary mount to your collection.
Here’s a quick guide to what you could be riding next:
- Coalfist Gronnling: Acquired from the ‘Breaker Two’ mission, this massive gronn is a status symbol on Draenor.
- Mudback Riverbeast: Snag this amphibious beast from the ‘It’s a Boat, It’s a Plane, It’s… Just a Riverbeast’ naval mission.
- Corrupted Dreadwing: Purchase with Apexis Crystals after unlocking the ‘Rise of the Corruptor’ mission.
- Infinite Timereaver: A rare drop from any Timewalking dungeon boss during Timewalking events.
Stay vigilant and keep those missions rolling. You never know when fortune will gallop into your garrison with a brand-new mount for your collection.
