Tried this , this morning. Partly because of Pilgram achieve and for the reins of the mount too .

Im not sure if the new changes have made this harder but I got owned the first time. then I have not tried again. may try later. I think if you try and think of the fight as a long slog rather then a quick down then that may help. I forgot to heal myself a fair few times

This guide is useful but I find it easiest to switch to prot spec and not worry about anything xD..
I use my ret gear exept shield and sword for the trash but on bosses I switch back to ret and equip my 2h sword.. I find the trash annoying especially those mobs that MC you and than the aggro restarts xD..

Anyways got my Raven Lord mount few days ago on my 11th kill

still farming MGT and ZG but no luck

anyways my armory if anyone cares xD

This guy was easily soloable before patch 4.0. Of course I have 4 piece and shadow’s edge with JC and Enchanting maxed.

yeah i think i was just lucky i have not heard of any drop chance increase i had a druid in my old guild do like over a 100 runs and not get it, though you will see more ppl with it simply cuz more classes can solo it meaning more ppl trying

@Maxpro – Not necessarily.

I mean I got the Headless Horseman’s Reins on the first try while I was DC’d cause of that cog glitch.

A lot of people who would get their mount especially on the first try and more likely to say something about it. I know I would and I do lol

If the mount really did drop as often as posts of getting it on first tries would make it seem, then I would’ve already gotten mine and you’d see a whole lot more people rushing to do it every day and getting it. You’d definitely see and hear a lot lot more about it in trade chat or in Dalaran’s streets.

It’s just a matter of luck and I find in this game more often than not it’s you’re either pretty damn lucky or grinding for months.

So I guess Triggap was wrong about it being like the tiger and rivendare Lots of people already here saying they got it on first attempt.

Maybe the fact that we all had them in PTR was a sign of what we’ll see from now on! Birds everywere.

Yeah last night i checked your site again like i do daily for any new information. Upon seeing your Link stating that we now could solo Anzu i decided id give it a try. Well 4 wipes and one Anzu later i had my very own Raven Lord very first run. Thanks for the heads up.

I wouldnt say Divine Storm is useless, if you have a group of mobs, Divine Storm hits unlimited targets like the Warrior’s Whirlwind and it heals you for 25% of the damage done, I would class this as pretty useful, though it would be better using Word of Glory if you only have a few on you. For the fight I would consider using Seal of Truth since Seal of Righteousness hits like a wet noodle and the ramp up isnt too long, when he banishes himself and summons his birds, DS comes in handy for taking them down. He dies quickly anyway so not alot of work needed anyway, the trash is more violent in my opinion, pull too many and they can kill you pretty fast.

did it today and got the mount on first kill!…unlike MT which i have been farming for about 3-4 months now with no drop.

Just an fyi…MT is considerably tougher now with the DS and consecrate nerfs if you’re still going for the mount.
