WoW Classic 20th Anniversary Boosting

All the new content for Phase 3 of WoW 20th Anniversary has been available since April 3, and if you’ve been playing the game, you’ve probably already completed some of it, especially if you’re already familiar with WoW Classic.

However, there is still some time until the release of Phase 4, and even all of us don’t know the exact release date yet. So what should you do in the time between Phases 3 and 4 when you’ve completed all Phase 3 quests? Maybe expanding your mount collection would be a good idea!

In fact, the collectible gameplay of WoW 20th Anniversary is very popular because there are so many types of collectible items, including transmogs, mounts, pets, and so much more. But the biggest collectible market is probably mounts.

Perhaps at the beginning of World of Warcraft Classic, players collected mounts mainly to save time traveling between regions, but now in WoW 20th or other servers, mounts are more about decorating your character’s appearance, enriching your collection and making your account more valuable. Based on this, we will introduce you to the 5 mounts that are still very valuable in WoW Classic 20th Anniversary.

1. Horn Of The Frostwolf Howler (Stormpike Battle Charger)

Although there are two names and two forms, you can actually think of them as the same mount, because you can only get one of them according to your faction. When you reach the exalted status in your PVP reputation in Alterac Mountains, you can get this mount, and Horde players would get Horn Of The Frostwolf Howler and Alliance players got Stormpike Battle Charger.

Fortunately, it is easier to obtain reputation and WoW Classic 20th Anniversary Gold than in the past, so getting this mount is not as difficult as in the original game, as long as you ensure that you complete the fixed tasks.

2. Mounts For PVP Rank 11

As the name suggests, this is also a mount that is closely related to your performance in PVP mode - you can only get it when your PVP level reaches 11, and the prerequisite is that you have to go to the faction’s representative in Alterac Valley PVP area and exchange it for 100 gold. The reason why this mount is considered rare is that PVP level upgrade process is relatively difficult, and it takes time to earn gold. So if you want to get it, you must complete all the tasks in PVP mode carefully.

3. Rivendare’s Deathcharger

From the outside, you may think that Rivendare’s Deathcharger is almost the same as most of the skeleton horses that will appear in WoW 20th Anniversary dungeon, nothing special. However, its real special feature is that it does not restrict the identity and faction of the rider, and has a strong universality. For example, unlike Horn Of The Frostwolf Howler, which is limited to Horde players,

However, the tricky thing is that it is also difficult to obtain this mount. It will only drop from the boss named Baron Rivendare in Stratholme raid. Although it is not difficult to find and defeat this boss, the probability of him dropping Rivendare’s Deathcharger is very low, even less than 0.1%! What’s more, when playing a raid, there are so many companions in your team, even if it drops, it is difficult to decide who owns the mount. This is why less than 1% of players in the original game used to own Rivendare’s Deathcharger.

4. Black Qiraji Battle Tank

To get this mount, you need to accumulate a lot of WoW 20th Anniversary Gold and other related resources in advance, and work together with your friends to open Gate of Ahn’Qiraj, to successfully enter Temple of Ahn’Qiraj and Ruins of Ahn’Qiraj. The whole process is actually a very long quest line, and only after completing it and obtaining Scepter of the Shifting Sands can you get Black Qiraji Battle Tank as one of the final rewards.

The trouble is that this mount is only available within a 10-hour window, so if you miss that time or take too long to complete the quest, you will miss it. In addition, any player on the server can start this window, so you may never know the exact time it happens. This makes it almost impossible to complete this quest, and the rarity of Black Qiraji Battle Tank is even higher.

5. The Original Epic Mounts

From the original game to WoW Classic 20th Anniversary, this mount has always been considered the rarest in the entire game series because it requires 1,000 gold to redeem and requires your character to reach level 60. Although you can definitely do this by working hard to accumulate WoW 20th Gold, after all gold has other more important uses in the early game.

After the release of patch 1.4 of the original game, you can also exchange this mount for new mounts with armor, and you should also be able to do so in WoW 20th Anniversary, but the real value is the original version mounts.

The above 5 mounts are just rarer, so if you just want to increase your travel speed by mounts, you can definitely consider other easier-to-obtain mounts. But if you are a veteran player who wants to enrich the game collection, it is definitely worth working hard for these 5 mounts!

WoW 20th Phase 3 has been open for some time, and the estimated opening time of Phase 4 is the spring of 2025, and it may be officially opened soon. The content of Phase 4 Rise of The Blood God is equally exciting. It will mainly open two contents, Zul’Gurub Raid and The Dragons of Nightmare World Bosses.

Zul’Gurub Raid is the first 20-man team dungeon launched in WoW 20th Anniversary. It is also considered a catch-up team raid, allowing players who are a little behind in progress to grow quickly. The difficulty and mechanism of the raid are more friendly to players and guilds, and the reset time is shorter. Zul’Gurub Raid offers rewards including 20th WoW Gold, gear, and two mounts: Swift Razzashi Raptor and Swift Zulian Tiger.

Zul’Gurub Raid

Zul’Gurub is located in the northeastern portion of Stranglethorn Vale, east of Lake Nazferiti. It was once the capital of Gurubashi Trolls, but was eventually destroyed by civil war and corruption. Centuries later, Atal’ai Priests returned to Zul’Gurub to summon Blood God, Hakkar, for evil purposes.

Zandalar Tribe now seeks adventurers to help them stop this summoning. Zul’Gurub Raid resets every 72 hours (basically every 3 days). Alliance players can choose to enter Zul’Gurub from Duskwood into Stranglethorn Vale, or go north from Booty Bay. The fastest route for Horde players is from Grom’gol Base Camp in Stranglethorn Vale.

Boss Overview

In Zul’Gurub Raid, you must first defeat the five high priests before fighting Blood God, Hakkar, because these five high priests will provide very powerful buffs to Blood God, Hakkar. Killing the corresponding high priest will make Hakkar lose the corresponding buff. If you challenge Blood God, Hakkar directly, it will be very difficult.

The buffs provided by each high priest to Hakkar are as follows:

• Aspect of Jeklik (High Priestess Jeklik): Causes about 1500 AOE damage and silences everyone in the area for 8 seconds, an average of once every 21 seconds.
• Aspect of Venoxis (High Priest Venoxis): Corrupted Blood will cause about 450 damage to the team every 2 seconds, and the frequency of activation is relatively high.
• Aspect of Mar’li (High Priestess Mar’li): Launched against the target with the highest hatred, Gouges for 2 seconds, and clears the hatred of this target. Tanks are required to accumulate hatred in turns.
• Aspect of Thekal (High Priest Thekal): Hakkar’s attack speed is increased by 150%.
• Aspect of Arlokk (High Priestess Arlokk: Usually launched on the target with the highest hatred, stunning it for 6 seconds.

Zul’Gurub Raid Loot

Boss Loots

Each high priest has a separate loot pool, but some loot is shared:

• Band of Servitude
• Seal of the Gurubashi Berserker
• Belt of Untapped Power
• Blooddrenched Mask
• Cloak of the Hakkari Worshipers
• Gloves of the Tormented
• Might of the Tribe
• Sacrificial Gauntlets
• Zulian Headdress

The loot in Zul’Gurub Raid is very rich, including various weapons, gears, rings and amulets and WoW Classic 20th Anniversary Gold. Because of space limitations, the following are some of the more important loot:

• Seal of the Gurubashi Berserker
• Swift Razzashi Raptor
• Swift Zulian Tiger
• Warblade of the Hakkari (Main hand) & Warblade of the Hakkari (Offhand)

Non-Boss Loots

Zul’Gurub will also provide a new set of armor for each class. Each set contains 5 pieces of epic quality gear. However, the sets themselves are not boss drops in Zul’Gurub Raids, but are obtained through quest rewards and reputation requirements with Zandalar Tribe. Instead, you need to collect loot to craft the armor.

These armors are:

Once you have reached enough reputation with Zandalar Tribe, you can add enchants with specific class properties to your Helm or Leg slots at Zanza the Restless. Here are the enchantments:
