This is an overview covering
EVERY
Mount and Pet in the game. Intended to guide your leveling and give you some help farming Mounts and Pets at lvl110+. There are a lot of things you can do to minimize repeating content later on and enable a head start if you are keen on collecting.
If you’re looking to track your collections, Wowhead now has the
Battle Pet Collection Tracker
and
Mount Collection Tracker
! To use the tracker, simply import your character to view your collections.
You can read more about how to use this feature here!
This could be considered the Prelude and Overview to my quadrilogy of expansion/location specific guides:
The Littlest Mountain
A Few Hours in Azeroth
A Week in Shattrath
A Fortnight in Dalaran
A Month in the Maelstrom
A Season in the Mists
A Graduality in your Garrison
Decades in Dalaran (Coming Patch 9.3)
A Nice time in Nazjatari (Coming Patch 10.3)
A Relaxing Time in Revedreth (Coming Patch 11.3)
I have not included anything you cannot get if you started in Battle for Azeroth
Pin one of your Characters to your Profile here on Wowhead and you can easily check which Pets, Mounts, and Achievements you are missing in this guide
You really should hover over any coloured text, especially
NPCs
as they will have a map. Speaking of which, check out the map pins, they are a summary of everything in that Tab. And if you see a
it goes to another excellent guide with more details. Ctrl+Click is your friend.
Prep
You can follow this guide if you are a new player,
none of the tips below are going to slow you down too much. Both Boosted and Seasoned characters looking to fill gaps will find what they need without having to worry about the leveling plan.
All else being equal the absolute best character you could choose would be:
Human
for
Diplomacy
and one extra mount only Alliance can get
Paladin
for Tank, Healer, or Damage.
Heart of the Crusader
, and access to six extra mounts not available to other classes
with
Engineering
(2 mounts),
Tailoring
(4 mounts),
Fishing
(5 mounts) and
Archaeology
(3 mounts )
This choice will give you access to 21 "extra" mounts compared to say a
Blacksmithing
/
Mining
Blood Elf
Warrior
, and the highest number (12) on a single character. This will come in handy later on as you edge ever closer towards
A Horde of Hoofbeats
Note however that at some stage you will need a low level
Worgen
,
Goblin
, and
Pandaren
for unique Pets, and one of each of the
Allied Races
for unique Mounts only they can obtain.
You will also need a lvl100-110
Druid
,
Shaman
,
Warlock
or
Demon Hunter
,
Death Knight
,
Rogue
, and
Monk
for pets only they have access to via their Class Halls. In fact, every class has its own unique mount(s) to collect there.
One of these characters will have to be into
Leatherworking
, and you need a couple of cross faction PvP participants, and
then
you could collect everything in the game. Well if you if you have enough gold you can...
You are going to need roughly to buy most of the Mounts and Companion Pets. If you visit
The Mad Merchant
you need another and some of the Mounts on the
BMAH
could cost millions each too!
But don't worry about that right now; a whole world awaits us after all. May the drops be ever in your favor.
The Plan
This plan is fairly simple, highlighting everything you can cross paths with to maximize the number of Mounts and Pets possible on your journey to lvl110.
Now that Zones and Quests scale to your level the Levelling Plan will sound very strict, you have a lot more freedom to pick which Zones you switch to when. It may feel weird to future players, but I will keep the breakdowns as originally intended for the sake of completeness and brevity.
Level/Zone Range:
Getting Started
As pets generally don't have a level requirement there are actually a lot you can get at lvl1.
But unless you have a lot of gold stashed somewhere, or real life money, between lvl1 and lvl9 you will probably struggle to make enough coin before you get to lvl10. When you get to your Capital make sure you visit
Audrey Burnhep
or
Varzok
for a "free" pet (and in the case of
Goblin
,
Worgen
, and
Pandaren
a unique one), and you could start collecting Wild Battle Pets. You really want to wear Heirloom Gear
for this if you are leveling.

Battle Pets
Here you will find a list of unique Battle Pets and Tamers per zone, within the character level range of this page (and on later pages, by expansion). It's everything you could
collect while levelling, and is
not
a list of every Battle Pet per zone, just the earliest chance of uniqueness. Hover over the names for a map, but many pets can be found in multiple zones. The brackets next to the zone indicate Pet Level. We'll remember to count these guys later.

Leveling Plan
As a new character you don't have many options, follow the Quest Chains out of your starting zone and onto the wider world.
You are guided pretty closley, and can't really deviate (or you will die, horribly). Try to get to your Capital City, grab your Faction Tabards
and possibly start some professions. For each subsequent pageI will include things you could be doing or Zones you should be visiting to save you some time later on.
The map is intended to give you a visual overview of where to find the pets and mounts mentioned in each page. Hover over the pins. There is always something useful to be read in the comments so they are worth a click. Due to the scale of the map these are not always 100% accurately placed but should do to give you an idea.
The Progress Bars indicate how far along you could be towards the collection metas:
A Horde of Hoofbeats
and
Master of Minions
These will grow on the assumption you are the luckiest
Human
Paladin
to ever play the game and collect every Mount and Companion Pet possible per page. Remember that for Mounts this is per single character. The Page Total is included, and if you hover over you will see the running total and the Collection Achievement range you are in. Think of it as a timeline as you go through the guide.
