i bet you it looks just like Highlord Darion Mograine one in Acherus: The Ebon Hold as there is no 3D yet

Mount is NOT bind on pickup. It is bind on use. Meaning you can sell it if you want.

Comment by Hoochie

When you kill the Lich King with a player wearing Shadowmourne in the raid, you will get an additional item - Unsealed Chest. After bringing the chest to Darion he will open it up and let you bring the items back to their respective owners to get your rewards :

Reins of the Crimson Deathcharger - A brand new mount that looks like the Death Knight's class mount.
Muradin's Favor - A 10-minute Frost Dwarf transformation.
Jaina's Locket - A portal to Dalaran on a 1-hour cooldown, you finally have your own pocket mage!
Tabard of the Lightbringer - A tabard with a very shiny on-use effect.
Sylvanas' Music Box - A music box that plays Lament of the Highborne.

So I want to know; Does this summon up like a regular mount? (rubbing your hands together until it appears) Or does it have the special casting animation Death Knights use when summoning their mount?

Comment by Teremei

I think it kinda sucks that toons other than DKs can get a mount that looks just like (if not better) than the DK unique mount. I've got a warlock and a pally and I would be #$%^ed if blizz released a new mount that looked like the dreadsteed or charger. But the way things are trending I wouldn't be suprised if they did.

I've submitted a screenshot of a GM reply in-game of the following:

"The Sealed Chest item only drops as long as the person on the Shadowmourne quest line has 'The Lich King's Last Stand' in their quest log. Once they complete the quest, the Sealed Chest will no longer drop."

It's ONCE per Shadowmourne, NOT weekly. This will be a fairly rare item.

Comment by Chromell

According to the GM response in one of the screenshots, I understand that the chest drops from Arthas as long as the person with the Shadowmourne quest DOESN'T complete it. By that it can imply that even if the person completes the objective for the quest, as long as they don't turn in, the chest will still drop from Arthas. Feel free to correct me but this seems to be a valid interpretation of the GM's response.

If you use this on a toon with only 60% rideing would it scale to an epic once you get 100%?

Comment by 542090

since its bind on use send it to a lvl 20 alt and let everyone stare at how awesome you are

I'm sure this will be down rated...but I could care less.

If this item continues to be a "BoU" (bind on use) I don't really see the point. Now that flying mounts are the one thing we use 99% of the time and the fact that we have rings or tabards that port us to all major locations getting rid of down time and there is even random BGs and instances meaning we never need to fly or ride to an instance again. THIS will be even more so in Cataclysm with flying mounts in Old World. Why go 100% when most of us by now should have 310% flyers.

All of these items from this chest are purely vanity and meant for lore nerds. Personally, I hate that this game has turned into a 3-D version of Gaia online. And if you don't know what Gaia online is. Thank God. You are a good person!

Me? I'd get this. Sell it. And be just as happy having up to what ever this thing could fetch since which is obviously going to be in the 100ks range. I don't care if I can hear a bunch of dead chicks singing to me. I don't care that my tabard puts a golden aura around me for 30 seconds. I get that enough from pallies and priests. I don't care that I have a pocket port. Most 10/25s will always have a mage anyway. Turning into a frost dwarf...Does it have any benefit other then dancing in IF or Org getting tells from newbs "wheredja get that?" or "whow where can i find that?". Vanity is the DEVIL.

And truth be told. People enjoy masquerading about town on their pretty steeds. And that's it. THAT IS ALL we do now to show off our hard earned mount and pet farming! This thing is just as worthless as the 100 mount achieve. A blue dragon-hawk...That isn't even 310%. When you will probably need a few 310% mounts JUST to get that worthless flyer. It's an old model with different colors. Blizzard loves to do that. Why people get excited over this BS is beyond me...

lol, someone on my server traded one for a mechano hog xD

I just bought this for 80k gold on Tichondrius US. I have not equipped it yet. I might resell this when blizzard makes it impossible to get.

It is a cool mount and on the same note: mounts and pets / really really rare items (legendaries)are the only things you carry from expansion to expansion.

I am a mount collector that is my hobby that's my passion. some people like pets. I like mounts. Just wish I had the legendary bug mount :(.

Comment by khaltak

NONE of the items in the box are bind on pickup, so you can sell them ALL if you want to. My guess is that these items will fetch a very high price on the AH/Trade channel.

I just wanted to clear up any questions as to the purpose of what the unsealed chest is for. I have spoke with gm's on the topic and they have confirmed that the chest is meant for the person with shadowmourne as a way of saying great job. I asked them why would they make the items bopu if they could forsee the drama it could cause, and they responded that blizzard made the items bopu, for the sole reason to allow the wielder of shadowmourne to do with the items as he or she see's fit. They stated that is if they want to keep all the items for themselves that is perfectly acceptable, and if they wanted to give the items away that is also acceptable that it is entirely up to them. So that sums it up, it is soley meant for the wielder of shadowmourne to do with as they want. If you guild is trying to force you to give up the items they are in the wrong, regardless if they view it as a group effort or not.

The only time I really can see a guild having any imput into the loot from the chest, is if they provided all the saronite you needed to get started. Guilds are saying it was a group effort, and we had to change strats to get the quest done for them. Ok first off if the guild didn't provide the saronite, especially before the price dropped that is one large investment the person made on their own. Second, there is really no strat change to do the quest. This is what I mean: The abom is the same regardless, some think you haft to let one ooze not be slowed to get it, well they are just doing it wrong all oozes can be slowed, so no change in that one. Blood Queen: Someone always has to be bit, your just letting that peron be bit second and then they bite the next three after soaking one tick of blood mirror, so no strat change there. Sindragosa: Here is the only slight deviation from a normal strat in that the person has to soak 4 frost breath, but if done correctly they can get the breath and still dps, so no real change there, especially if it's the tank. So that stops that arguement on strat, and I pose this question, would the guilds still be raiding ICC 25 man every week just the same if there was no shadowmourne to gain, yes they would. I know of no guild that is only running ICC to get a person a shadowmourne, so with that your doing what you would anyway so as far a shards go, the guild really isn't doing anything special to help the person, just the loot master clicking to give them a shard drop.

I submitted the screen shot from the gm conversation to be approved, so all can see!

This is stupid. This item needs to be changed to drop more than once or drop for everyone in the raid. As it stands, this is the only rare mount in the game that is nearly impossible to obtain on some classes but not others. Inb4buyit, NOONE on my server is selling it, nor am I likely to ever have enough cash to buy one of these, let alone the other items that come in the chest too.

edit: oh yes, downrank this and don't say why. What's wrong, you afraid you're gonna get flamed for saying something contrary?

Comment by wow112

Comment by tecnomage

Ok I just got this mount today.

Info that i can share:
I wasn´t on the LK kill, I wasn´t on the raid when the DK with the legendary got it.
My guild EPGPed it, for 1000 points each item. I got the mount, even not being in the group atm.

It´s BOE, can be sold on AH, does not give achievment, looks like DK ground mount, but it´s red.

It´s 100% speed (at least mine is....) some ppl r reporting to have it 60%, its not!
As for the summoning... - someone asked it - it´s just like a normal mount.

Subimited a screenshot a while ago... the one on AQ gates is mine! ^_^

Comment by Nerruse

I was extremely lucky to purchase mine for 65k yesterday. For mount collectors like myself, it's a fairly expensive one to get and on some server/factions it is going to be incredibily hard (like alliance on my server as it's completely dead). So if you get the chance to get one, get it now. Tempted to get a second to hold back if I manage to raise the gold.

PS looks neat on a druid

1st of all: Lore is fun, some people enjoy a good story, and WoW /=/ Gaia.
2nd of all: Boxxy plays Gaia Online!

Bind on use -
You can put it in the AH.
You can give it to a level 20.
You could throw it in the guild bank.
You can do anything with this that you can do with, say, a stack of Linen Cloth.
Win.
