I can confirm that it's not a guaranteed drop with the 3-minute achievement (although it would be nice, if you're reading, devs)

However the drop rate could still be higher while doing it under 3 minutes, but it's unlikely.

Comentario de 263674

It's more than likely just coincidence that the mount drops after doing the achievement. It's because people are doing the achievement and accomplish it then see the mount that they mentally link it with the chance of the mount dropping. The reason there will be such a belief is people are trying to do the heroic achievements for the red proto drake and it'll drop enough after people accomplish it that there will be such a belief. Much like the drop rate idea of it being a "sure thing" after killing a certain amount of mobs.

Comentario de 70404

As this has never (to my knowledge) been the case for any similar rare drop item, I doubt doing the achievement will make any difference to the chance to drop.

Comentario de 187038

Comentario de 57465

I can confirm that killing Skadi in under 3 mins does not guarantee the drake drop.

Curiously we didn't get credit for killing grauf in 1 pass even though we did.

Comentario de vampiric161

With the obvious exception of loot that is awarded on time-based prerequisites. For example, the bronze drake mount.

Not really. The corruptor will always have one when you start the instance. The timer just determines whether you get to kill him and get the loot or not.

Comentario de Divinehate

There is no Feat of Strength for getting this mount. I got it today and equiped it and no achievements was rewarded.

Comentario de jaxsonbateman

As far as I'm aware, the dropped proto-drakes (blue and green) both have a 1% chance per loot to drop. IMO, the easiest mounts to get are:

1) Red proto-drake: some of the achievements may seem tricky, but all are doable with a skilled, decently geared group and the right strategy. If you put in the time and effort, you should have no problems getting the drake.
2) Time-lost proto-drake: generally, the mob will spawn once every 2 to 3 days. Then it all comes down to how good you are at camping and tagging. If you can tag it and stay in dps range of it, you get your mount.
3) Blue proto-drake: whilst you have the competition of other group members if it drops, you have 7 times as many chances in a year to get this as you do the green proto-drake. You can also eliminate group competition with enough gold to grease the wheels.
4) Green proto-drake: as previously mentioned, you only get 52 chances in a year to earn it. The saving grace is that there's no competition if it does drop from your egg.
5) Plagued proto-drake: this is one of the more difficult drakes to get, as it involves a fairly difficult achievement - the Twilight Zone. As such, it would be very unlikely that anyone but a serious raider will get it.
6) Black proto-drake: along the same stream of thought as the plagued, this one involves getting the hardest T7 raid achievement - the Immortal. It would be even less likely to see anyone but a serious raider get it.

So with that in mind, if you're looking for a proto-drake but don't mind what colour it is - go for the red. All it takes is a bit of skill and dedication.

Comentario de 219762

I want to know whether it helps improving the drop rate If skadi is shot down in one round and killed under 3 minutes

Comentario de sahar

I belive it dose not metter how many runs you do, it is half confirmed by a gm, that every 90th to 110th run of the server in UP heroic it dropes, I belive its metter of luck to fall on the right one. So basicly, you can run 200 times and you will never get it becuase you wont be on the right server run, or run it once and you will be on the right server run :)
Gl, Sahar-Darkspear Horde, Undead Rogue.

Edit: It was half confirmed by a gm saying this: "It has nothing to do with the times you did it, Sahar. Its all about the times server did it. I can't confirm more than that, I am sorry Sahar."
Next Gm said:"It's indeed have great chances of drope between 90th to 110th time Skadi dies, Sahar."

Comentario de 337748

Proto-Drake's are awesome I love'em

Comentario de Shadowtion

This pretty much has the same drop rate as of all rare-drop mounts in 3.0.3.

But I suppose this would be a tad harder to get compared to Deathcharger's Reins for example, since you only get 1 shot a day, and if you're a pugger, you might actually get a fail group that can't even get there.. Like me *cough*.

Seen the mount drop once in 12 kills. Hunter loaded in blues, that didn't even have 300 riding won it. Rather lame, but well.

Comentario de 128257

i saw in the sceenshots the dragon standing, how would you do that?

Comentario de Jushak

Call it a twist of fate but this mount dropped on the first ever UP run I did on my warrior alt for the tank sword there, after I had given up on this mount on my main.

Now it might be just the animation, but the mount "feels" like it's faster than the other epic flyers - and seeing as I'm collecting mounts on my main I've tried many of them. I'm quite sure it's supposed to be 280% speed like the rest of them - something another guildie who has it keeps telling me - but still I wonder...

Another thing I found odd is that the icon is that of red proto drake. Searching wowhead shows that all proto-drakes have the same icon, which is shame really.

Finally, good luck to everybody farming for this beauty ^^

By ninkosen on 01/17/2009 (Patch 3.0.3)
the loot of any boss is defined when the instance is created, not when you loot or kill it
so when you put the first foot in the instance, it's already set if there gonna be the mount on your run
+++++++++++++++

Post your credible Blizzard source. No one here is interested in your noob speculation.

Comentario de 344085

In my opinion Blizzard failes on those rare drop mounts... U can go 10-20 runs and never see it drop. Then u go there , it drops and some noob that just hit 80 wins it...

Where is fun there? its based on luck too much... Its too impossible to get.. Same with green protodrake from egg...

Blizzard should make it more obtainable... and drop should be 100% when done with both achievements on skadi, thats my point :P

Comentario de 350981

I was lucky when i was in UP FOR THE FIRST TIME on my Death Knight... I got it first time it dropped!

Sometimes you get lucky! ;D

Keep trying! ;D

Good luck ;D

Comentario de 350986

Me and girlfriend running through with randoms, mount drops, she wins. ><

She opened a GM ticket and gave it to me, and now i have to be extra nice to her..

Still, woot mount :) best lookin flyer in game save for maybe mimirons head.

Comentario de rappydoo21

14 Apr 2009. Pugged H UP and Proto Drake dropped after killing Skadi. Huntard won the roll.
15 Apr 2009. Did H UP w/ some guildies. Dropped again and I won w/ an 85 roll ^-^.
I've never heard of this mount dropping twice in a row, but Im a happy panda.

Comentario de Ghostyamine

I've seen this mount drop TWICE on two different toons. I was lucky enough to get it on one of them. What's interesting is that we wiped once before we downed him BOTH times.

Comentario de 339106

All you people that have seen this drop multiple times are trying too hard to find a reason

"okay if u wipe 3 times while avoiding fire whileeating a banana on the toilet, it drops!1!"
No, you're just lucky.

"k but wat if u kill him in 3 minutes and 21 seconds? Ive seen it drop 2 times and we did that both times! it"
No, you're just lucky.

Also, to see the idle animation easier, just fly to the floor and do /mountspecial

Comentario de 363838

I'm playing as rogue at US Dentarg - Ally.

just FYI, first time i run heroic when i hit 80 is H UP, my PUG group wiped on this boss because i didn't know the fight (i didn't pick up harpoon as told so, i got panicked!), then we fight again and its drop. And i win the roll, the bad news is at that time i can't use that :( (didn't have 5kG for training)

and yes.. this is just another noob's "its drop on X attempt and I win the roll" comment :)

Comentario de Mobbe

But its an extremly rare mob to find. its like 1-2 each day or less.

Comentario de 339106

See above: luck, RNG

Comentario de 365976

While helping my prot warrior friend farm the tanking sword, I had the chance to see this mount drop 3 or 4 times. My statistics on the armory claim I have only done Utgarde Pinnacle 11 times lol... So just hang in there!
Both me and my friend managed to win the mount, yet we still have never seen the tank sword drop =S

Comentario de 179812

Your sir, fail at probability.

When you flip a coin, it has a 50% chance of landing heads up.

That doesn't mean that a heads is guaranteed in two flips. In fact, there's a 25% chance that there will be no heads.

To find the chance of this dropping after 100 tries is (1-(.99^100))*100%, or 63.3967659%

Comentario de 420577

Sick of tards and scrubs who dont have epic flying. I 3 manned this boss and a scrub doing 1k dps got it, oh yeah he didnt have epic flying anddd after he won it he asked me for 3k for epic flying ARGH!

Comentario de INvShika

For the record, the drop % on these rare mounts isn't additive.... it's multiplicative

You have a 1% chance to see this drop every time you kill Skadi. You will NEVER have a 100% chance to see it drop. If you run H UP 100 times, you have a 63.3967659% chance to have seen it once, not a 63.3967659% chance to see it drop on the 100th run. l2statistics

Comentario de 180488

It is interesting (but not really important) to note that the 63.4% chance of it dropping at at least once, and it doesn't rule out the possibility of it having dropped more than once in that time. There is a 37.0% chance of it dropping exactly once in 100 runs, to which we add the 18.5% chance that it'd drop exactly twice in 100 runs, plus... and so on, up to the almost infinitesimal chance that it'd drop 100 times in 100 runs. Or we can use a trick, and subtract the chance that it doesn't drop at all (36.6%) from 1.

Comentario de 254627

So I finally got my Blue Proto-Drake today, about 20 minutes ago and I'm already in love with it! I love the colour and have wanted it ever since I saw someone on it back at the start of the year!

I tried to do H UP everyday but sometimes couldn't due to other things getting in the way but I got a decent amount of runs done. I'd say maybe 20-30, which is quite low if you think about it.

The funny thing about this run is that I had 3 negative people bashing me, two of which were my guildies. One was the tank on the run, he came just for fun and said: "It's not going to drop." which was a funny thing to mock him about after we looted. The second was someone who didn't want to come claiming, "If it does drop you won't win it. :)" Which was also funny. The third and final person was a random person who saw my LFM ad in trade chat and said "You mean the mount with a 1% drop rate? GL..." :)

Keep farming, it WILL drop eventually.

Comentario de 392764

It dropped on my very first run, we 4 manned the boss,everyone rolled need except me who greeded (by missreading what to do)...

what a noob i am...

Comentario de Ishtar

Unconfirmed reports that the drop rate has slightly increased with 3.2. The stats on wowhead say 1.1% but i am unsure if that changed recently.

Comentario de 390886

Yup, yup. I would rather have the Time-Lost Proto Drake or the Green Proto Drake but I'm happy with this guy. It dropped twice for me in one week, but a day a few days a part.

8/9/09 - Dropped - Won the Roll with a 80 something
8/11/09 - Dropped - Guildie Won it

Even though I like the other two proto drakes I mentioned above better and I'm still aiming for them, I have to say that I love the uniqueness of this one, as all other proto drakes have black/brown going up their heads and down their backs with some color, minus the rusted/iron bounded proto drakes, and this one is pretty much has all shades of blue all around, like the mobs that you can kill.

Comentario de DwarfsPwn

This just dropped for my group about 40 minutes ago.. tank won it :X

Comentario de 443617

People should really stop trying to explain probability for the drop. It's a 1% chance per run, simple as that. No matter how much math you do to see how likely it will drop in 100 runs, it's still chance. You can't put numbers on chance.

Comentario de 447742

Odd thing happened today with this but probably just a weird coincidence. While fighting Skadi the warning came up that he was doing his breath but the actual action never happened. This happened on each pass by (he never actually did the breath). A guy running with us who already has the mount said that the same thing happened when his dropped.

Must have been some weird glitch and coincidence because the mount dropped and it was the first time I had seen it. Just wanted to comment on that XD

Comentario de 102243

This is like the next Baron Deathcharger mount. If you're a person that likes to collect mounts, then you'll never get it because it'll never drop. It's dropped before during a guild run for me out of pure surprise, but my then-guild leader won with a lucky roll with me at a close second... Looks great. Wish I could have a mount that not everyone can have!

Comentario de 451986

I have never spent a penny on any optional mounts since vanilla WoW, as I never thought of mounts being a good reason to spend thousands of gold on. Though when running around Dalaran I would see people with the Black Proto-Drake I would say to myself "Damn, that IS one cool ass dragon mount" and kinda be inspired to try to get a proto-drake one day.

Then low and behold...

I go to UP to do my daily quest with a random group, and this mount drops! Never have I seen it drop after countless runs of UP. After five rolls go down the screen... I am the lucky winner.

To conclude, this IS one bad ass mount, for the fact that now in Dalaran I see more Black Proto-Drakes than this one.

Comentario de Ishtar

Bought this after 28th kill. I paid the winner of the roll TONS of gold for this. Worth every cent IMO.

Comentario de Dotdotgooose

Just because it drops for you on a first run doesnt mean the drop rate is higher. Yes, something dropping on the first run could be a 100% drop rate, it could also be a 0.000000000000000000000000000000001% drop rate. Achievements, speed of the kill, none of this will effect it. It will always be a 1% drop rate.

Oh, and a 1% drop rate doesnt mean you get it in 100 runs. it means every time you flip a 100 sided coin. If you flip a coin twice you are not guaranteed to get heads and tails because the coin does not have any sort of memory.

Comentario de Sofiah

This mount dropped for me today, i got outrolled by 6 points. I still cry

Comentario de corinth

My second run on my Shaman of H-UP this dropped, I got out rolled so after the instance I offered to buy it from the winner worth every copper I paid imo.

Comentario de 459670

I just got this today, didn't expect it ever.

Comentario de 354963

I think it might be better to have it drop on your 100th or greater run. That way, all the gold you made running UP 100+ times can help you pay for Epic Flying.

I've done the achievement several times and it just randomly dropped for me last week. I don't think it has anything to do with the achievement.

Comentario de 473344

I farmed this HC like f**k to get this mount. I was gutted that I lost a drop to a friend, and then again to my guild leader. However after the patch it became tradeable to anyone in the group, so he gave it to me :p Which was really nice of him :) I was chuffed after that, as I wanted one so badly xD but it did take a long time. It dropped from Skadi just before the server closed down for maintinence. A friend told me that the drop chance increases slightly at night, but i'm not sure whether this is just a rumor or not. Good Luck :D

Comentario de 447837

Got it from the 2nd run and won it with a fair need roll :) I suppose they have increased the drop rate since so many people are getting those. They are pretty common in ToC areas tbh...

Comentario de lagvanas

Got this today :D whoo:P

Comentario de 481796

you guys are going about this the wrong way a 1% chance does not guarantee that you'll see this mount at least once per 100 runs

the chance that you'll see this mount drop is 1% no matter how many times you run it you could run this instance once a day for the whole year and each run will still be a 1% chance of seeing it

So there's no guarantee that you'll see this mount out of 100 runs or even 459 runs it's all a matter of how the game plays out your odds will never get better so all you can do is keep running this instance and hope that your roll is higher then everybody elses or carry a bunch of cash to payoff the person who did out roll you when the proto-drake does drop

You all phail at math btw

Comentario de Xhougnaamn

To calculate the probability (p) of an item with x chance of dropping to drop over n number of attempts, plug your numbers into this equation:
p = 1-((1-x)^n)
To calculate your probability of seeing this item (which has a 1% chance of dropping according to Wowhead) drop over 365 attempts (every day for a regular year), turn 1% into a decimal, .01, then:
p = 1-((1-.01)^365) ≈ .974

So your probability of seeing this item drop in 365 attempts is roughly 97.4%, which is very good.
However, in a normal group of 5 participants, assuming all roll on the mount, you actually have a 20% chance of obtaining this item every time you see it drop. Due to this, you must also factor in the number of people in your party (represented by a):
p = 1-((1-x/a)^n)
p = 1-((1-.01/5)^365) ≈ .518, i.e. your chance of actually attaining this item under these conditions within a year would be 51.8%.

In a regular 5-man group, it would require 347 attempts just for the odds to be on your side (over 50%), and 1833 attempts to have an greater or equal chance compared to if you were to solo the instance for an entire year (approximately 97.4%). Your best bet would be to either wait for the level cap to be raised so that you can super-humanly solo this instance, or offer a significant amount of gold to the person who wins the roll on this mount. I prefer the second option.

Please remember that just because you are on your 365th attempt does not mean the chance that you will see the mount drop on that attempt is 97.4%. This is the probability that it will drop in a number of attempts, not for any individual attempt. The chance for this to drop for each individual attempt will always be, for as long as Blizzard does not change the drop rate, 1%.

In addition to all of this, for comparison purposes, the approximate chance that you will be able to attain Reins of the Green Proto-Drake within a year at maximum effort is 65%.

Edit(s) - 02/05/2010: Made changes in my math to accommodate the change in drop rate on this item; Fixed a couple mistakes/typos.
Edit - 01/11/2011: Not sure how this has gotten almost half as many down-ratings as up-ratings. I thought a simple formula would be pretty useful information, but maybe not. It's completely accurate mathematics.

Comentario de 490158

My last sybscription expired in February and I didn't play wow till November and a couple days ago i went to up hc and and the drake dropped from Skadi.2 bad i wasn't that lucky on the roll.then tomorow i went to up again and skadi dropped the drake again!i didn't get him on the roll but then i thought that blizz put the drake to drop every time when u kill skadi in the past patches so i wasn't that mad,but the next time i saw that it didn't drop and the grp member sayed that it's very rare to drop and i was disapointed.2 rare things happend so quickly and i didn't get them.now i'm going every day in up lol :) i hope this might give u some inspiring to go to up and try ur luck.this should be i think the easiest way to get a proto drake

Comentario de Saan

The only problem with the theory that it will drop 100% over an amount of runs is that it can't be true because the drop rate does not increase each run. That would be nice, but it's simply not the case. The drop rate is specific, so once you run it, than the next day run it again, it's the same chance it was the previous time. The loot choice is automatically reset, so it's completely random. And no the achievement does NOT increase the chance that it will drop.

This mount finally dropped for me last night. I ran this instance over 300+ times in my wow lifetime with 2 different toons and never seen it till last night. The chance of getting it also slims more when 5 people are needing it. It may drop 1% of the time but that 1% get divided by 5 when you have a group. haha All four ppl kinda hated me after I won it. The time from that boss to the last was pretty ackward lol.

I was very lucky to get this at the same time I got both achievements from Skadi, it is a very nice mount, and I get a few comments on it when people see it.

Comentario de 129446

Either I've had extreme luck with this mount, or they did actually up the dropchance in 3.3.
In my 6 last runs on my paladin tank it has dropped 4 times (too bad I fail at rolling), and in one out of two runs on my rogue. Thats 5 times in 8 runs, and seeing I've run this instance on heroic probably about 100-150 times over my various 80s prior to the new LFG-system and never ever seen it, I would assume something has changed.

...or I've just had insane 'luck'. It's a very good looking mount nonetheless, only beaten by the Plagued imo, which is no longer obtainable.

Comentario de 380599

you're just extremely lucky. ive ran this everyday since 3.3 came out on 3 differnt toons, and I have yet seen it drop once. I have run this insance atleast 200 times and ive never seen it.

Comentario de 190596

I just got mine today - Jan 2nd. This is the second time I've seen it drop and the first was last week but I was on an alt, this time I got some friends together that agreed to pass and I let them bring in fresh 80's for badges and it actually dropped and I had to shake my head and look at the screen again to believe that it actually dropped.

And of course the first time it dropped the DK that couldn't break 900 DPS and didn't even know what speed the mount was nor did he have epic flying won the mount.

Avoid the cross server/LFG tool if you're trying to farm this mount, if someone from another server wins it they can't trade/sell it to you.

You can easily 3-4man this with a decent healer and a good tank, so don't keep thinking you have to find 4 other people willing to pass, It's good to have friends willing to help and that will pass if you ever happen to see it, and if it doesn't drop you still get badges so I always had people willing to go.

I now have 104 mounts, and 4 Proto-Drakes, Red, Blue, Green and TIme-Lost Proto-Drake !

For fellow mount collectors here's a list of all my mounts www.warcraftmounts.com/user/collection.php?id=12792, I use warcraftmounts.com since I don't have to create a new link every time I add a new mount like I would on wowcollect.com, I use both sites though but I'd rather not update the post on here every time.

I'm still farming ZG, Sethekk, Kara. 4 years and I have yet to see a single ZG mount drop.

Did random Occ the other day for my Expert Drake Raider and got the Reins of the Blue, the next day (today) I ran UP for all 3 achieves and rolled and won on this first run through! Someone crunch the numbers on THAT! Still 1kg away from epic flying too haha

Comentario de Maddroxx

theres one small detail that i havent seen mentioned. at is you still have to Win the Roll. Even if it drops you only have a 20% chance to win the roll. so if you take that into effect and factor in the drop percentage rate, a single persons odds of getting the moubnt to drop and win is like .020% at best.

Comentario de 532020

Can you only get this if you use the random finder or can you select specific? I know in Oculus, you have to use the Random finder for a chance at the drake.

The drop rate listed (1%) is for all normal runs and heroic runs combined. Since this mount drops only in heroic, the drop rate is actually higher.

Could be a coincidence but have seen this drop twice in the past week. Both times while getting doing it under the achievement time. Now that he only takes 3 shots to get down maybe more can speak to drop rate when getting achievement.

I have seen the reins drop twice this week. Two guildies have seen it in the past week as well. Probably a truly weird coincidence, but maybe the drop rate was increased by quite a bit. If that were the case, I'm sure we would have had confirmation by now.

EDIT: Since I posted my comment, I have not seen the reins drop again. I've approached the fight many different ways and nothing. So rest assured, it was a coincidence and nothing more.

Just got mine about 5 minutes ago. All 5 of us rolled and I rolled a 98! Where are these rolls in ICC 25m? I'd like to know!
Beautiful looking mount, a nice addition to the collection of Proto's. It drops when its past 3pm and the sun is covering the mountain in the background, look for the murloc %^&*ing in the wind on top of it....then your mount will drop :P

i was just upgearing my rogue and i got very lucky i saw this sweet mount drop and won the roll and in my next dungeon (heroic: CoS) i even won the bronze drake ^^. (now i just need to get money for the epic flying skill :S)

Im curious do anyone succesful farmed it solo ? I mean class which are able to do that. I have started today and going to farm it until it will drop.

Comentario de iSocom

i got the drop last night, about the 6th time i've ever ran that dun. 3 ppl rolled, luck went my way for a change! :)

Comentario de IbFeeshin

@ Johnnyp, I try to solo it on my lock every now and then and a well geared pally or deathknight should be able to with ease.

Comentario de Rensje

I've been spending weeks with my guildies running random heroics and trying to get all the achievements for Glory of the Hero done. I really wanted that Red Proto-Drake so bad.

I was down to one achievement yesterday and we had already failed it once, so now we were doing more randoms in hopes of getting into Gundrak again so we could try it once more. One of the instances we ran was Utgarde Pinnacle and sure enough, this mount dropped and by a stroke of extreme luck I won the roll. After months of running this instance almost every day, it finally happened when I least expected it.

This is by far one of the most awesome types of mounts you can earn in this game, regardless of its colour scheme, and this blue variant is easily one of the prettiest!

The drake dropped for me yesterday evening, i was screaming with caps "GIEF MOUNT!" before the pul.So it dropped and i rolled 97 and now i am on blue wings and sh1t

Comentario de Chodgra

Dropped for me. Won with a 95 roll....didnt even have fast flying at the time!

Comentario de 295244

First time in awhile I been lucky. I was leveling my druid and decided to log on my pally before the random reset, got in right before this boss and it dropped. I was excited and I won the roll. At first I did not realize it was a proto I thought it was just a blue drake like from oculus/malygos. Anyway really liking this mount and for everyone whos farming it just remember things happen when you least expect them :P

My girlfriends swears that everyone has to live through the fight with Skadi for the drop to have any chance at occurring. While I don't give the idea any merit, I was wondering if anyone else has an opinion concerning this hypothesis.

Comentario de NeroRain

Didn't see this posted, but found out today that you can skip the first two bosses (Svala Sorrowgrave & Gortok Palehoof) if you just want to do a quick Skadi run. Just have to blast through some of the trash before you get to him.

Comentario de 47839

Party member found this in the loot bag out of The Oculus.

Comentario de 93865

Skadi is easily soloable by a protection paladin; I did it in full T8.5. In T10 it's a breeze.
Blue proto drake dropped for me on a solo!

Keep Shadow Resist aura up as it is the Witch Doctors which do the most damage. Freedom out of the nets thrown by the Harpooners. Shield Wall and Holy Wrath if many adds are up.

Comentario de Chromell

Today (04/13/2010) I, Chromell of Llane server will have my 100th kill on Skadi to see (or not) the drake drop. With 1% chance there is no telling how many tries it will take for something to drop, the only way to find out is to keep doing it. Until then, I state: the drake is a lie.

- edit -

It dropped today on my 104th run and I'm quite disappointed for I didn't win T_T

Comentario de mofolis

2nd run on my new lvl 80 warlock and the bloody thing dropped, i was gonna pass as i didnt have the riding skill but i thought sod it why not, all needed and i won which made me go and buy the riding skill but since then all i get is /w saying omfg your so lucky with that blue drake.

I'm very happy today :-)

Comentario de 197204

0/68. Never seen it drop at all. I've been 2 manning it lately with a prot pally (I'm a huntard) Hopefully I see it soon! Really sucks that you can't buy it in randoms, because I'd offer 5k for it... if I could trade gold cross servers...

Comentario de tiprun

I have seen this drop twice in two days, won it once and my friend won it the second time around.

Made me wonder if the drop chance has been increased or anything, going to run it tomorrow and see what happens.

EDIT: I have ran it another six times and nothing, so I'm guessing it was just a pure stroke of luck.

Comentario de 589025

I have run this a bazillion times on my warrior and never seen it drop, first run on my fresh lock and it drops (to be won by some scrub pally). Also with the 3 min achievement. God, it is so beautiful and I am so sad right now.

Comentario de 425876

I got this Mount on my Second run so was extremely, extremely lucky there !

Especially as three party members rolled a need for it.

Comentario de Shercko

I have seen this drop 2 times in my time, 2nd time was 3 days ago when I actually won it. All I can say is this: The only bad thing about this mount is seeing someone else with it!

Comentario de Quafrinhage

Since this mount was available well before the new Dungeon system was added, is it safe to say that it will still have a chance of dropping when using "Specific Dungeon" to enter UP?

Comentario de Oshiri

Dropped for me on my 8th run of Pinnacle. Was just doing the daily with my friends. Rolled 98 on the drake. I was on skype with my friends too so I could hear their reaction. Priceless.

Comentario de 459745

got 2 of these on my 2 mains :D was well happy wen i got the 2nd

Comentario de Chlorure

Lost this mount 8 times in around 25 runs. Some of you will think that im "OMG SUPER LUCKY" to acutally have seen it that much but quite frankly, I would have prefer not seeing it that much.

The last I saw got looted to someone that already had learned it (so he needed on it), and deleted it in our face because "If you are not going to pay me 20kg for it, too bad scrubs".

Blizzard needs to fix this. You shouldnt be able to need on something you already have learned

Comentario de doomlove

Many of these maths would be true, if the drop chance was stated to 1%.

But in this case, wowhead has calculated drop chance to be around 1% because of the statistics.

Proto-Drake dropped 1262 times out of 99436 kills. So it has droppet about once for every 100 runs.

If statistics hold, it will drop once for every 100 run, as some people guessed.

Blizzard could have set the drop chance to 0.5% or 2% or 99%, just if so, most people have been extremely unlucky!

Anyway, this statistic could be that 98174 groups have killed this guy with no luck, and then the last 1262 groups in a row, saw it drop.

Point is, drop chance of the Proto-Drake could be allmost any %. But statistics say that if you kill this guy 100 times, and no others on your server does, in between. You will see it drop once. Statistics are often right...

Comentario de Allakhazam

A rare 1-2% drop from the penultimate UP boss. It is possible to skip the first two bosses and go straight to him. I got mine off my second ever run when Skadi was hard, and people used to comment on it all the time. It's the same as the ones you ride in the Storm Peaks quests and very cool.

Comentario de ninjaperch

368 Attempts. Months of runs. Multiple Toons. A mount I will probably never use.

I’m the mongrel that dared to intrude here. Now I shall never return.

Comentario de Judgeanubis

This mount is my white whale. I have over 1.5k runs on skaddi, and no drop, havent even seen it drop once. My friends have come to the joke that its a rumor and murmur but not real. and that my friends who have it just painted their proto drakes blue.

Comentario de Azzinothed

This is the only rare mount in the game that doesn't give an achievement from dungeons and raids with exception of the Azure Drake from Malygos doesn't either. Every Vanilla and TBC and WoTLK rare mount still gives an achievement and many are much easier to obtain.

Comentario de nesshimself

Can anyone confirm if this can still drop in gammas? Terrible luck on my daily runs, but I don't know if it's RNG or just from running gamma.
