If anyone knows how this mount will be obtained and has some video/picture links it would be appreciated, this mount sounds awesome, and in hopes its easy to get (unlikely)!

Being downvoted for asking a question ages ago is cool...

Commentaire de VindicoSolus

This mount was originally NOT going to be on the list of account-wide mounts in Mists of Pandaria. However, a decision was made to change this:

Mumper wrote:

We have been discussing this issue the last couple of days and we made the call to make the following mounts account-wide:

•Traveler's Tundra Mammoth
•Grand Expedition Yak
•Mechano-Hog
•Mekgineer's Chopper
•Sandstone Drake
•Grand Ice Mammoth
•Ice Mammoth
•Jeweled Onyx Panther (all color variants)
•Cloud Serpents (all color variants)

At this point, the only mounts that are not account-wide are either class specific or rewarded from PVP. We feel like both these types of mounts should still be character specific.

Thanks for your feedback on this issue!

Presumably it will look like the serpent Elegon.

Commentaire de 902330

It's been confirmed that this can be obtained by defeating Elegon, a very rare drop chance for sure ;)
drops from both 10 and 25 man , normal and heroic , LFR is not included

If you look http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/blog/5773219 there, you will see that the description on this mount is: Astral Cloud Serpent (very rare Raid drop)

Commentaire de 523589

Probably,will be the new mount in Blizzard Store.

Commentaire de 950815

Oh wow.

Commentaire de 952779

Is it 100% drop on heroic?

Commentaire de Feraldps

Does anyone know if you use an that the mount has a chance to roll for you?

Commentaire de Saphiree

Does anyone know if this drops from LFR?

Commentaire de 1047992

Got this last night from 10-man Elegon. It was our first kill, and after many, MANY wipes, we were so lucky to receive this. Very happy with the mount, and as the item says, you need to have exalted status with Order of the Cloud Serpent in order to use it. Good luck everyone.

Commentaire de rhinoloupe

To cut down on the amount of questions...
Drops in both 10 and 25 man in normal and heroic modes. It is not guaranteed; the drop rate is very low. Does not drop in LFR.

There's a NO chance you'll get this with your extra roll from Breloque ancienne de bonne fortune. Blizzard Tweet for proof

You can still loot it even if you haven't gotten the Cloud Serpent Riding skill yet, though you can not mount it.

Commentaire de lillbrorsan

I just got this on our second kill of Elegon on DMF, probably server first, it is so sparkly and pretty :]

Commentaire de 1046955

Well I'll be damned. This thing looks awesome, and pretty much guarantees Elegon will see visits all through MoP and whatever comes next.

Commentaire de Dacness

I can confirm that you can get this even if you do not know Cloud Serpent Riding. I've got this on Wed and still working on rep, should be done tomorrow. I will upload a ss then.

Commentaire de moknathal

I got this mount last week off Elegon. its funny cuz its not listed in atlas or the dungeon Journal. its such an awesome mount. i'm the only one on my server with it so far.

Commentaire de JuiceboxEU

If any priest with this could upload a screenshot of it in Shadowform (Both glyphed and unglyphed) I'd be very thankful!

Edit: Thanks, looks amazing!

Commentaire de 532588

Last week on Monday (10/12/2012) when our guild killed Elegon Heroic for the first time, this mount dropped and one of our lucky raiders got this mount. After he won the roll, he admit not having exalted yet with the Order of the Cloud Serpent. Yesterday (13/12/2012) this mount dropped again from Elegon Heroic, and a second raider (actually our Guild Leader) was lucky enough to win the roll for this awesome mount, and yet again...he didn't have Exalted with the Order. :|
Are we that lucky to have 2 mounts dropping?

Commentaire de 1062011

awesome

Commentaire de 1049090

Confirmed that this mount only drops in 10 and 25 man Normal or Heroic, this does not drop in LFR

Expect between 0.5 - 1% drop for 10 man Normal 1 - 2% 10 Man Heroic, 1 - 2% for 25 man Normal and around 4-5% for 25 man Heroic.

While I am aware that these % are a range, this is info I managed to collect from speaking with a Game Master recently. It also makes sense based on difficulty and would match that of mounts like this which were around in the past.

Hope this information proves helpful.

Commentaire de garangalbreath

The most aesthetically pleasing part of this mount is probably the stars that explode from his center.

In regards to the line in 2010 "My god, Its full of stars"

Estelyen posted:
"The interesting thing about this rather famous quote is that no one really knows what David Bowman (who uttered the phrase) meant by it."
The it he is refering to is the Monolith that they originally encountered. The Monolith was a reflection of time and space as indicated in an interview Authur C Clark gave prior to his passing before Contact was released. Later we see that there were several thousand Monoliths that were apparently self replicating time and space to create a stable living enviorment for what exactly was never explained. That was to be explained in a third novel that was never written but I would surmise that it was a race that picked Eruropa as its home unbeknownst to humans. Thats the best I can do on that so I hope it helped.

Estelyen on 2012/12/13 (Patch 5.1.0)
More accurately, the quote is from the book "2001: A Space Odyssey" by Arthur C. Clarke. It was adapted into a much more popular movie by Stanley Kubrick, but you won't find that quote in Kubricks movie. However, the quote DOES appear in the sequel, "2010: The Year We Make Contact" directed by Peter Hyams. The interesting thing about this rather famous quote is that no one really knows what David Bowman (who uttered the phrase) meant by it.

Just got my mount last night XD its awesome

Commentaire de Espectron

Quick Question, Can you get this mount via Raid Finder?

Commentaire de 974472

These new dragons are something really awesome .

Commentaire de wowZhenek

So, has there been a confirmation that the mount can be rolled from the coin. I mean, I've rolled there almost 42 times (over all chars ) and I've yet to see the mount either drop or get it from coin. I know odds are quite slim and all but, well, the story with sha/galleon mounts kinda made me worried abit. By saying that I've never seen anyone saying that they got it frm coin either

Commentaire de xerxes615

3-manning this boss as feral druid tank + disc priest healer + arcane mage dps. I wonder if mount gonna show up one day.

Commentaire de Dovie

This mount also makes faint twinkling chime sounds as stars shoot from its midsection.

Commentaire de AlexL1118

Can anybody give mathematical argumentation about where is better to farm it: on 25m or on 10m (provided you have full raid in both cases)?

From one side, in case of 10m you have 2.5 times less people to beat you in rolls. But from other side, in 25m you have 3 times more chance of drop (each boss drops 6 items instead of 2 items).

Just for clarification, does this mount drop from coin rolls in LFR? After reading through the comments on this page and some others, it seems ambiguous and this point does not seem to be specifically addressed.

Arguably the best mount in the Mist of Pandaria Expansion.

I saw this mount dropped earlier in my weekly run. Chances of seeing it drop again ---- maybe after 12 months...

Solo: Elegon! by Mionelol

Commentaire de Sirvi

Being a player that usually is at the mercy of the RNG Gods, I typically lose end tier mounts on rolls, such as seeing Expirement 12B during Cata (which was the ONLY time I ever saw this mount drop) or Amani Battle Bear (had a few friends help me try to get it seeing they had their bears, but a random pug that I recruited manage to win it and rub the winning in my face...was pissed, but I got it a day later)

The real kicker was downing Lich King on 25m Heroic and having my add-on Rarity pop up Invincible's reins to only see ninja'd when some scrub turned the loot to master loot RIGHT BEFORE LK DIED. My very first sighting of this beautiful mount and this happens.

This mount, along with Horridon's drop and Ji-Kun's drop, I haven't seen-and thinking like everyone else was to use their coin rolls to get a chance to have these mounts drop...only to find out about a year later that a post saying that coin rolls do not work. Well, so much for ever seeing this mount drop or winning it whenever I run this raid with random pugs.

So I took a chance on May 6th and did a mount run with a random pug and lo and behold...we down Elegon and the mount was in the loot table (which was weird, whenever a mount drops or the primal eggs drop, the rarity add-on that I have will tell me like an achievement)!

Holy *insert random profanity word* This was the first time I ever seen this mount drop as well as getting the winning roll for it, by 2 points. I rolled a 53 when I believe that the raid leader won with a 51.

So, if your an avid mount collector (like I am with 211 mounts now) don't give up hope.

Interesting note about the /mountspecial animation of this mount...it does the typical rear back and roar animation, but the sound is very different, which when I was testing out the mountspecials for other cloud serpents, it shares with The Heavenly Golden Cloud Serpent.
