I once had two of the damn things drop in back-to-back trash packs in AQ40 while working on Brood of Nozdormu rep, and I gave them to two guildies who were nuts about collecting mounts, because I am a nice person.
The red is sufficiently rare that it's the subject of its own achievement (technically a feat of strength), Why? Because It's Red. not so much so players estimate that the drop rate off any given trash mob is 1% at best. Where you'll find it The four bugs with which you're concerned - the red, blue, yellow, and green - all drop randomly from trash mobs in the Temple of Ahn'Qiraj (better known as AQ40).ĭrop rate The blue, green, and yellow bugs are all very common drops, to the point that you'll be thoroughly sick of seeing them over the course of a single run. Thankfully, the other four are a bit easier to get. The Black Qiraji Battle Tank was the highly coveted mount given to each server's Scarab Lord(s), and the Ultramarine Qiraji Battle Tank is a maddeningly elusive archaeology reward. There are six Qiraji Battle Tanks in the game, but only four drop in a raid. Combining The Ambassador and Mountain O' Mounts.Otherwise, there are more than enough pure drops to keep us occupied today Blizzard's always been fond of making unique mounts the potential reward of difficult raid encounters, and you'll get a few extra feats of strength if you nab some of these beauties. I'd initially expected to include mounts like the Ulduar proto-drakes and Icecrown frostwyrms, but they're really more the result of a series of achievements rather than encounters themselves. Today we're going to look at mounts that drop in (or, in one case, as part of a quest within) raids. This week, we return to flogging the guts out of bosses that might puke up a horse. Every Thursday, The Overachiever shows you how to work toward those sweet achievement points.
