This is a very fast three-person mount that carries vendors.

As I read the description, it implies that you can empty your bags and possibly repair your armor just by summoning your mount. Sounds pretty OP :-/ Hoping there's a pretty hefty price tag or requirement attached.

EDIT: 15k gold. Excellent!

You need to gain reputation with the Kirin Tor to get a discount on this mount, it's sold by Mei Francis.

Kommentar von Mayhew

I checked the vendor last night (9/24/2008), and the price is now up to 20,000g.

Kommentar von 56614

This item might be deprecated soon, if not already. Aside from the reference of this item, Mei Francis only has the new Traveler's Tundra Mammoth. Wowhead might be slow with build updates, I'm not sure.

The new price listed of the Traveler's Tundra Mammoth was 20,000g; not 15k as reported above.

Kommentar von frmorrison

This item is pretty fun. It is huge (about the size of two mounts stacked on top) and you can take some other people for ride.

Kommentar von 221060

Used to be Grand Caravan Mammoth for 15k g. Was buggy and apparently removed from the vendor. You can now only get this one, on which the vendors do infact spawn, however, as of the current build others cannot mount onto it.

Kommentar von 164998

anyone know if the vendor can repair...and if possible to have the vendor summoned inside an instance even when mounts cant be summoned?

Kommentar von 174535

Just imagine "fun" of having this mount on the top of a vendor. It's really TOO big.
They should make it smaller or change NPC interaction mechanic IMO.

Kommentar von Icecoldcoke

I heard that the two vendors are a reagent one, and one that can repair items.

Edit : Confirmed. Goblin repair guy, and Troll reagent vedor for horde. Appear to be hostile (non attackable) to alliance, and friendly to horde with no faction to reduce costs on items / repair.

Kommentar von hpavc

What exactly do the other players have to do to mount this? 'use item' open chest type clicking?

Kommentar von 217425

(1) To buy it? Probably any level, although you need level 60 and riding at 150 to use (learn) it.

(2) You can sell items to them, as well as buy items, which include, but are not limited to, food, drink and reagents.

(3) It can be used anywhere you can use other mounts

Kommentar von 217425

To mount it they have to be in your party, and you have to eject at least 1 of the vendors, then they just right click it when in range. Kinda like a siege engine.

Kommentar von Murloc

At neutral it is 20 000, but you get a 5% price discount for every reputation step towards exalted, so at exalted you would get a 20% discount.
Which means 20 000 * 0.8 = 16 000 is the cost of the mount at exalted.

I was wondering, say a tiny little blood elf mounts this mount but a tauren decides to hitch a ride in one of the passenger seats, will the mount scale to accomadate the tauren or will the tauren just look giant on this mount.

Kommentar von MrPsychic1

HOLY $%^&! 16.000g for now according to http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/basics/mounts/special.html

Kommentar von Rathan

Every time you summon this mount you will start with two vendors sitting in the passenger seats. You need to use the pet bar (Ctrl-1 and Ctrl-2) to remove the vendors if you want players to ride along. Players who want to ride will also need to be in your party. You can kick players off your mount the same way you do vendors, or you can simply remove them from your group.

Re-summoning the mount will bring the vendors back.

Kommentar von 137950

I can imagine drive-by on this mount xD

ally vs horde like gang wars, and this is our lowrider :)

Kommentar von 217425

You need a 'new' vendor on it you simply dismount and remount.

Hi folks,
yesterday I bought this mount and took the chance to play some kind of taxi role in low level areas. I went to Stranglethorn and catched up someone who wanted to ride Tanaris. During that way I cought someone that wanted to reach feralas, so i took them for a ride. They were very pleased and impressed and enjoyed the ride. So i did. This mount is worth every penny of its cost, even for the fact that you have two vendors with you. My passengers gave me some gold for the ride and it was very funny.

And to clear something up here are some summarized facts about this mount:

What you need for this mount: The Wotlk expansion, 16-20k gold (depends on your Kirin Tor reputation), 150 riding, LvL 60
There is no level requirement to take a seat
The mammoth takes up to 3 persons, including yourself, resulting in 2 passengers max.
At neutral it costs 20.000 gold, 16.000g at exalted with Kirin Tor
Upon mounting you have two vendors by your side. One for things like reagents and repairs, one for things like food, water, arrows, ammunition, flint and tinder and a Draenic Silk Robes
To dismiss them you have three new Icons atop your action bars. Two to ask them to leave, one to unmount. If you can't see them you could press Ctrl+1 or Ctrl+2 by default.
You can dismiss your passengers by clicking the corresponding icon atop your action bar (left / right seat). Doing so will make them jump out of it. Even wenn falling, but thats not very kind, isn't it? :D
There is currently a bug that if you dismiss the food vendor first, someone mounts and then you dismiss the other NPC, no one else can take a ride. You will have to dismiss both NPCs or the repair NPC first.
No, the money for repairs do not go into your money bag ;)
~~Mounting up and down takes more time than with a usual mount (1-2 seconds)~~
Upon skinning, mining or casting that would usually unmount you automatically will not work on the mammoth. You will only get the message "You can't do this now". So if you're going to farm herbs, mines or something else another mount would be a better choice.
~~The mount has got 5342 HP~~
~~The mount itself is Level 80, so if you ride into a lvl80 mob and you are below the mounts level it will attack you. Otherwise it will attack the mount.~~
~~It seems that speed enhancing abilities like Aspect of the Pack will burst the mammoth's speed, making it the fastest 100% carrier you will see :)~~
~~Interesting: In duels the mount is taking damage when mounted.~~
It will transport the flag carrier in PvP without loosing the flag
~~You cannot be polymorphed while riding the mount~~
You can do any emote you can imagine while mounted, and so your passengers can do. If you dance, you and your passengers will stay dancing until canceled. Really cool!
~~The mammoth does not have any kind of "roar" emote if you press the space bar like the draenei elephant. If you stand still the mammoth just jumps.~~
The mammoth is acting like a common mount now

Kommentar von 247839

Just bought this mount today. My rep wasnt that great, but i got it for 19K. I love the fact that i can vendor trash while out questing, buy water, or repair. Poisons, ammo, what isnt included? i can even buy a 1970's looking dress (brown and yellow).

Taking your a lowbie friend to run him through some dungeon... easy now, no more waiting for that slowpoke to show up.

Get your crack commando tower taking team for AV all in one vehicle.

So far, this is my favorite part of WOTLK. worth the gold if you have it.

Kommentar von 53205

The most fun I've had so far was offering the hunter in my guild who always used to kill me with misdirects a ride..

I told him how the mount won't die from falling damage, and we promptly jumped out of the Dalaran sewer exit.

About halfway down I ejected him. Good times!

Kommentar von Karatir

The mount is not affected by Crusader Aura.

Edit: At the time of the post, the above statement was true. The mount was considered a vehicle and was not benefited by crusader aura. That has since changed.

Kommentar von 245439

As noted above, mount speed increases like Crusader Aura don't affect the mammoth, only run speed increases like Aspect of the Pack. And Crusader Aura never stacks with anything anyway. So 130% is the best you'll get.

Kommentar von benzo

Very nice but 20k! who the hell has 20k i mean gawd damn. Way to encourage some people to use those rip off gold buying websight bravo!

Kommentar von 128968

BEWARE - There's a bug where you can die of exhaustion while mounted on a boat. But it IS as sweet as it sounds. Exciting how OP it is for BGs.

Kommentar von 165115

Kirin Tor reputation lowers the price. At exalted mount costs "only" 16,000g.

Kommentar von 261924

I bought this mount yesterday. To me, it seems the summon time is the same as a standard mount. Dismount time is instant for me. I press the red dismount arrow and I can immediately start running, shapeshift etc.

Vendors on the mount are great! You can even buy/sell/repair on the move. This mount will save money over time by not having to use repair bots and can be summoned inside the instance for Malygos as well. As a druid, I love always having reagents with me and being able to sell junk loot.

I bought the mount for 17k and have no buyers remorse at all. I have a second account and this mount will make it easy leveling alts because they can jump on the mount and have 100% speed.

Kommentar von 173988

On a level 60 toon I purchased and returned this after two weeks for my 20,000g back. This mount has annoying features which are addressed above and which for me stood as deal breakers. Here's a post which includes a screen shot of some of the issues I had with the Tundra mount as well as how I got the refund:
http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=12891212471&sid=1
Screen shot of successful arguement with second tier of Blizzard GM support:
http://www.geocities.com/gnarly_wave/mammoth-refund.gif

Issues:
1. The mount requires too much time to mount and dismount - an extra .5 second - Very annoying. An expensive mount should activate instantly or in LESS time.
2. Clicking forward on the mount upon using it often sends it running in reverse direction from the direction faced upon mounting it.
3. When mounted, there is an odd spot for actually being able to speak to NPC's or use the mailbox. It's off to the left side and is much more difficult than with a standard swift ground mount.
4. When traversing shallow water (puddles, or even the UC canals) this mount ejects you, whereas standard swift ground mounts do not.
5. On any other ground mount you can cast a spell or attack a mob and it automatically dismounts you and you're instantly able to combat mobs. With this mount if you approach and aggro a mob, you can't immediately attack, instead, the mobs are on you while you have to perform the extended, animated dismount. Those precious seconds are often the difference between winning and losing, and in this case are ALWAYS a disadvantage from what we're used to on a standard mount.
6. This mount cannot /follow another mount.

It's unarguably the most impressive purchasable status symbol, however once you're past that you'll end up using another mount while playing the game, because those issues make this mount a burden and a lemon. Will Blizzard fix this? I very much doubt it. If like me you are dissatisfied, then the route to getting back your gold is to insist that this should not be considered a mount, because it fails to meet the expectations we have from any other mount we have owned. Getting back the gold felt great and I've used it to purchase swift flight for four alts -- much more practical and much more satisfying than having this on one toon. Especially when the only time I used it was to occasionally strut around Orgrimmar. 20,000g is too much to pay for something with so many annoying problems.

Kommentar von Waggo

I noticed a funny little bug.
If you start with first mounting up on your mammoth and then you mount with another mount again on the mammoth and start to run.
Then while you are running, hit the hotkey for demounting/mounting your mammoth, since you are now running, something funny happens. You do not jump down on your other 100% mount, you keep running on with your character, with 100% increased run speed! You can see your mount buff is on, but the mount will not be shown. Interesting.

You can also run while you are sapped by a rogue, pretty interesting that the mammoth can be steered when the driver is not really able to :p

Kommentar von 256408

exist any macro for call "mount" without vendors? for example, i want it use in BG, and dont want vendors everytime up, want free sits for my teammates.

Kommentar von shiverina

This mount carries 2 npc's.

The "Sons of Hodir" reputation mount, Reins of the Grand Ice Mammoth (https://www.wowhead.com/cata/item=44086/zügel-des-großen-eismammuts),
sold by Quartermaster Lillehoff in Storm Peaks (Dun Niffleheim) for 10,000 gold, does NOT carry
2 NPC vendors - as per the item description. The Ice Mammoth DOES carry 3 people.

"Use: <Learning>
Calls forth the Grand Ice Mammoth! This is a very fast mammoth! Allows two passengers to board. Must be parties with the driver.
Teaches you how to summon this mount. This is a very fast mount." No comments on vendors.

ONLY the Reins of the Traveler's Tundra Mammoth (https://www.wowhead.com/cata/item=44234/zügel-des-tundramammuts-des-reisenden) carries NPCs.

"Use: <Learning>
Calls forth the Traveler's Tundra Mammoth, complete with two buddies! This is a very fast mammoth!
Teaches you how to summon this mount. This is a very fast three-person mount that carries vendors.

So get to Exalted with Dalaran and spend 16,000 gold. Because, the 10,000 you spend in
Storm Peaks will NOT give you the Repair and Regeant NPCs.

Kommentar von 230132

I took a portal to Dalaran as a lvl 70 mage, accepted the quest "Learning to leave and return: The magical way" from Archmage Celindra just in front of spawn area, just accepting this got me Friendly with Kirin Tor. Mei Francis was just outside and I bought the Traveling Tundra Mammoth off her for 18999g 99s 98c. It is my understanding that mages start off at friendly with Kirin Tor and can buy this mount at this price without having to farm any rep.

Kommentar von 242856

for most races, this mount will be about the same size as normal ones.

for the few bigger races, grand mounts are smaller than normal ones. yikes :s

Kommentar von ExEvolution

This thing is huge, its gotta be at least 8 gnomes high!

Kommentar von AzGuL

Yeah, just tried it as well - it has definitely been hotfixed.

Kommentar von 193462

Seems there are only 6 types of Mammoths available:

Alliance

Reins of the Black War Mammoth

Reins of the Grand Ice Mammoth

Reins of the Ice Mammoth

Reins of the Traveler's Tundra Mammoth

Reins of the Grand Black War Mammoth

Horde

Reins of the Black War Mammoth

Reins of the Grand Ice Mammoth

Reins of the Ice Mammoth

Reins of the Traveler's Tundra Mammoth

Reins of the Wooly Mammoth

Reins of the Grand Black War Mammoth

Some are more easy to obtain than others.

Kommentar von 69575

omg 2c! That is loads! And as for mesmashudie's comment, no the mount will not scale to size so a tauren with Winterfall fire water and heroism when they mount this will do absolutely nothing to the size though it may cause the Mammothe to tip...

Kommentar von 156306

Another great thing I noticed about his mount (sorry if it was posted above already and I didn't notice) is that because it is a vehicle, it takes fall damage not you, if you fall off a cliff riding it, it dies and despawns but you take no damage. :D

Kommentar von 293075

I got my "TTM" on 21 Dec for 16k gold. Aspect of The Pack affect the mount, so i travel more fast... 130%... imba in AV Horde travel with 2 players.

Its the best mount if you are hunter!

Kommentar von 102859

Must be kept away from gnomes.

Kommentar von 170847

He's not complaining that there is no way to exit the mount so in his situation, that command would be useless. He's complaining that there is no way to automatically exit the mount the way you can with a normal mount (this was added at some point pre-bc, I believe).

So, lets say, I want to be able to do that. OH NOES blizz didn't put it in! How about a macro!

#showtooltip Divine Shield
/run VehicleExit();
/cast Divine Shield

OH SNAP! It works now!

Kommentar von 278642

Don't get depressed asking yourself why you keep crashing into houses and such. It's because the mammoth's eyes are covered by a big plate of metal.

Kommentar von 125087

it seems that as of Patch 3.0.8 whether this is a bug or not....

The Traveler's Tundra Mammoth takes no fall damage. it isn't hurt, doesn't die, and the passangers don't get hurt either.

a massive downside of this mount is it has no water clearance. if it gets ancle deep you get kicked off. while the PvP mammoth can have nothing above water but "my" own head and still go.

Captcha code: uqq2q

Kommentar von switch89a

These vehicle mounts are odd. You can mount a second mount while riding one. For example I can mount my mammoth then mount my wings of the ebon blade, but i cannot fly. I will get the no fly zone debuff in dalaran and forces me to dismount from both mounts.
Oh and you cannot double mount any mount, for example when trying to mount my wind rider it say you can't do that right now.

Kommentar von 262382

Can you choose by your self, what vendors that is on it?

Kommentar von 146914

I'm not sure if this is just a rumor or not, but I was sure it would be listed here in these comments if it were true. Since nobody has said anything about it after having read all comments, I might as well ask:

Is it true that your passengers can attack while mounted on the mammoth?

Kommentar von 109170

hmm this vs mechano-chopper

functionality vs looks

taste great less filling

ARRRRGH

Kommentar von 235419

I found a bug that allows you to ride this mount even if you don't own one.

It requires a person in the party with the mount (Of course)

1) They summon the mount and then dismount
2) You spam click to enter the mount
3) You're on the mount! :O

Seeing as this is technically a vehicle, it stays around for about 1-2 seconds (The time it takes to dismount)

Kommentar von Vlad

Since patch 3.1, the mount is no longer a vehicle and thus you take fall-damage. It's now a mount + vendors (no special features apart from that). You can no longer target it either, it directly targets the main rider as all other mounts.

Kommentar von 237304

ok, my guild master just bought this thing, and me and him had a great laugh while jumping of the high towers in dalaran.
now we have even bigger plans, and i was wondering if theres any way you can get this baby to slowfall.

Kommentar von 316211

ok to hypitheticly speaking a gnome climbs into the passenger seat on the right and the taurin climbs in on the left... how far can the mammoth go b4 he falls and squishes the taurin? it's the laws of physics people gravity comes into play here. oh well suppose we'll have taurin burgers after this happens...

i forgot to mention when the mammoth falls sideways and crushes the taurin, the great force of leverage will throw the gnome into a wall and most likely splatter him... this mammoth is gonna create a huge mess...

Kommentar von flash70

Changes to the Traveler's Tundra Mammoth on the 3.1 PTR:

Mammoth now behaves like a regular mount and not like a vehicle.
Dismounting is instantaneous.
You will take fall damage when mounted.
"Aspect of the Pack" will no longer boost the mount's speed.
A new emote has been added when pressing SPACE while the mount is standing - the mount will now rise on two legs and roar.

Kommentar von 254627

So I finally got this mount on Saturday, March 7, 2009 after a coupe months of farming. I think it's pretty cool, until it gets nerfed to a normal mount because then I can't jump off of Dalaran and still be mounted and alive when I land.

It's also a good 16kg worth because you get 2 seats, which can carry friends or vendors.

But it's always sad to to see you go from rich to poor. :(

Kommentar von 332502

i just got mine on my blood elf rogue last night, took me a year to save up that much gold, lol

in my opinion, since we pay 16,000-20,000g for it, any money spent on the vendors by another player should be given to the person who owns the mount

and i thought this was pretty weird, the mount is able to be killed in combat

i was in av last night after i got it, and a freakin dwarf comes up, and doesnt attack me, he attacks the mount, i was like wtf, when he killed it, i couldnt summon it for the rest of the battle

i was only able to get back on when i got back to ogrimmar

i personally think this was just a bug

but yeah, just to be safe, dont ride this in battlegrounds, lol

Kommentar von 163674

I haven't seen this error posted, so I thought I'd see if anyone else had the same problem. On the "Pets" tab of the character sheet, when this mount is selected it shows up as the alliance verison of the mount (my character being an orc).
So, I wondered if anyone else had noticed this and if it was going to be fixed in the patch. I paid 16k gold for this mount, I want the correct version to show up in my character sheet. :S

Edit: This has been fixed in Patch 3.1

Kommentar von kireal

Unlike Black War Mammoth this one can pass through low doorways and small gates! I was really glad about it, when discovered. Decided to share, cause it was one of the main reasons why i was not using Black war Mammoth and didnt want to buy traveler's one...
*hug*

edit: not any more :(

Kommentar von Footrot

Here are a few notes about it that I couldn't find answers to when I was hunting for information, as well as probably going over old ground.

Vendors

The vendor sells enough food and water types to cover all levels.
The arrows and bullets sold are equivalent to Terrorshaft Arrow, Blackflight Arrow, Frostbite Bullets and Ironbite Shell.
The reagents include various levels of < insert your class here > seeds/powders/candles and so forth.
Can confirm that there is no faction discount on either item purchases or repair costs.
Once you boot the vendors, you can't interact with them, and they'll despawn soon after booting them from the mount.
Any 'automatically purchase/sell' add-ons that you use will work fine with these vendors.

Behaviour, Appearance and Control

Currently (patch 3.0.9) the mount animates like it's a vehicle, and it does have it's own health pool and so on, but it does not activate the vehicle interface. Instead, your pet bar gives two options for booting the vendors. Booting one does invoke a GCD (at least a pet-based GCD) so booting both off in rapid succession isn't quite so rapid.
The mount doesn't appear to be any larger than any other mammoth, but does in fact have a smaller collision box so it does fit through certain doorways and places that other mammoths may not. You do obviously get graphics being clipped depending on where you're going.
Ignore the misinformation regarding this being usable in Northrend only - it works anywhere that any other mount would.
Just like most other vehicles, the dismounting animation takes a brief moment, and while it doesn't activate the GCD, you cannot cast spells while this quick animation is playing. Hopefully the 3.1 patch that makes these 'vehicle-like' mounts more like normal mounts will change this.
Similarly, trying to cast a spell while mounted on this will not auto-dismount you, regardless of any settings controlling this behaviour. If this really is a major hassle, macro everything to include...

/script VehicleExit()... as the first line, and then spam your spell until it casts. Again, 3.1 will hopefully remedy this.
Your party members cannot directly choose which side-saddle they'll be put on. It seems to prefer to put players in the right-side saddle first if it's available. If you really have a pressing need to put someone in the left-side saddle, only boot the left-side vendor, have your friend hop on, then boot the right-side vendor if you like.
Unlike some vehicles which are 'odd' to control, the Tundra Mammoth is just like any other mount, except that instead of a little animation + sound when you attempt to jump while stationary, this mount actually jumps on the spot.

Kommentar von 332502

i got a question real quick about footrot's comment

so the way this works is, when u first summon the mount, the vendors are on there, then u can remove the vendors to let somebody sit in the saddle, and bring the vendors back at any time too?

i was planning on buying this, but i wanted to clear this up first, i thought u had to choose between multi-passenger or vendors

so all i want to know is, after u boot the vendors, can they come back at any time, or is there like a cool down or something?

Kommentar von 342414

Keep in mind that vendors are always whining when u dismount like "that's how u do, mon! leaving us behind?". That is quite annoying, since it happens every single time u get out of it :S

Kommentar von 324648

awwww this thing would be awesome if i had the cash like really 16000k g like i no if i ever get that much i am gonna buy it just buy it because and be like why the hell did i buy this thing stupid but then when i look at it i just wanna do dailies really bad i guess ill just settle for the wg vendor one but it would be sweet if i could get the one from voa

Kommentar von Wartem

Patch 3.1. On live servers.
It works just like any other mount in game now, just that it got two vendors on it, who can be kicked off. The animation when pressing space while standing still has also been changed, it now animate like the Black War Mammoth. It also scale with your size just like Black War Mammoth (no more rushing into the Orgrimmar auction house). The earth does no longer shake when you move. Simply a normal ground epic mount with two vendors on it... who has switched side! Mojodishu is now on the right side and Drix Blackwrench on the left.

No more jumping from the Dalaran tower. /cry

Kommentar von 124899

Maybe it's changed, but last week (prior to patch 3.1), while waiting to go into Naxx, I clicked on someone's mount who was definitely not in our raid, and I mounted her mount just fine. Surprised me! I think I annoyed her too, she started running all around the place, circling and jumping - it was like an impromptu bull ride woo hoo! I could not click anything to dismount / exit, and finally got back on my own two feet when she dismounted the mount. For a time there, I thought I might miss my raid hahaha.

Kommentar von 96433

I can't wait to get this mount. It is great way to earn money from people who do repair from you. My guild mates got fortune on this :)

Kommentar von captainstarbucs

Just got mine today! Be warned though, you will be whispered by alot of people asking for a ride! Also, it's no longer a vehicle, so don't attempt to jump off of dalaran and expect to live like I did.

Kommentar von Sardoche

That's my dream. When my friend pushed me back into wow, he got this and we always traveled with this remarkable mount. Now i got what i was suppose to buy and farming gold for it. I have patience and so far my gain of per month is 4k gold. I'm planning to have it soon summer.

Kommentar von Luminaire4192

Try having someone get on the mount with you when they're on a reindeer mount, you'll be in for a surprise.

Kommentar von sabot7726

I bought this for the full 20k and don't regret one copper of the decision.

I did however have to take a look around in order to figure out how to eject people from the back. I have a highly customized UI so my minimap isn't in the right spot, therefore the picture of the mammoth you'd normally use to eject people is out of sight on my screen.

After reading a bunch, turns out you can either use a minimap mod like sexybot and update the lua code to make the mammoth icon movable, or you can use this macro I made. Push it once and it will ride the mammoth, push it again and it will ditch the righthand troll vendor so a friend can ride:
/run if IsMounted() == 1 then EjectPassengerFromSeat(2) else CallCompanion("MOUNT",4) end

Now if I could only figure out how to add it to my cold weather / I am in dalaran or not / can I fly here or not macro and combine the two somehow:
/script if (((GetZoneText()=="Dalaran") and (GetSubZoneText() ~="Krasus' Landing")) or (GetZoneText()=="Wintergrasp") or not IsFlyableArea()) then CallCompanion("MOUNT",4) else CallCompanion("MOUNT",2) end

The reagent vendor is Mojodishu.

For all you curious RPers out there, she does not sell RP robes like the Alliance version.

Cheap shot, Blizz.

Kommentar von 400524

I spose...But..For 20k..They should make a buff or something that goes on you when you equipt the mount or something..a buff...While on this mount you are unable to be stunned or something like that

Or.. They could have made the ground speed 125% making more people want the mount then more people would know about it..work for 20k gold..play longer more subscription blizz gets happy we get happy we got a faster mount...

Plus this mount is very helpful to alts or something all good :) i love it i got one and im going for the other mammoths aswell

Kommentar von chicers

will this mount beocome a level 40 epic ground mount in patch 3.2 and will the price be dropped any i cant wait for 3.2 i am only level 44 so level 40 epics should be alot cheaper because unless you have a main then there is no way to make that much cash maybe it wil be a 1/5 of the price hopfully

Kommentar von 386145

Costs 20, 000 gold. Drops 1, 000 gold for each reputation level with the Kirin Tor, reaching 16, 000 gold and exalted.

This mount has 2 passenger seats which are occupied by 2 vendors at mount summon. The goblin repairs and sells reagents. The troll sells food, water, and ammo. The vendors sell/repair at full price, no 20% faction discount and therefore many people, including myself, like to buy my reagents and repairs at places where I have the faction discount, like Dalaran.

However, there is no faction discount for selling items to the vendors so the vendor are useful for clearing out your bags. And you can do it while on the go.

Prior to my purchase of this mount, I had the Grand Ice Mammoth so I didn't need a 2 passenger mount. However, it was this or the bike and this one lets me sell to the vendor so I went with it.

Hopefully in the future they will add faction discounts to the vendors, at least for the owner. Until then, this mount isn't much different from the Grand Ice Mammoth.

Kommentar von Solenar

And me sadly, was 16k short =P

Kommentar von Malma

How the hell do I eject a vendor of the mount? and can I get it back if i change my mind ?

Kommentar von nothealing

Hmmm....if you get this on a 49 twink.... please take a break and go outside :P

Kommentar von 447664

this mount is awesome..but..i dont know how to carry 2 more ppl..can someone tell me please

Kommentar von Malvard

As an Engineer with Repair bots and a Mechano hog, I see this mount as a giant, though useful, piece of steaming crap.
I HIGHLY reccomend the mecho-hog over this any day of the week.
its WAY more original than the mammoth, wich is boring as hell.

Even if you don't have repair bots, this thing is really useless, because u cant pull it out in most instances, and if your gonna go outside, you might as well fly your epic flyer to the repair npc in about 20 seconds.

but man i wish my hog carried 2 passangers, One in side car, one behind the driver

Kommentar von Blarnay

I think it should be noted that while it can make traveling in cities difficult, the height provided allows one to run through small rivers and streams that a smaller mount would otherwise swim (and thus slow down to swim speed).

Kommentar von popyyy

how do i get the vendors on it? all i know is that it can carry 2 people

Kommentar von mixter

the vendors will give you gold every hour....you just need to press ALT + F4
or set up base camp with /camp

Kommentar von 333489

As of patch 3.2.2 /camp only works in a main city or while RESTING! please remember this!

Kommentar von wye43

Just as with all vehicles with multiple seats, you get a small portrait under the minimap, hoover your mouse over the 2 yellow dots to see the names of them, and right click and "Eject <name>" to kick them off.

Kommentar von wye43

After an year I finally decided to get it. I never did a better choice in my 5 years of wow playing.
It changes the way you are playing - its simply amazing - a must have mount. Save gold, farm your ass, you will cherish every moment with this mount.

Kommentar von wingman

If you're using a bar addon you won't be able to see the eject button, type:

/run for i = 1, 2 do EjectPassengerFromSeat(i) end

ingame to eject your vendors so that your friends can get in

Kommentar von 43546

When you buy this you get 2 people, and a mammoth for 20k gold. Dosnt that mean that you just bought 2 slaves? Didnt know the kirin tor approved of slavery :P

Kommentar von DrAwkward

My favorite thing to do since I got this mount is to run through a group of mobs and once they start chasing me eject Hakmud. The visual is hilarious.

Kommentar von Voldtekt

Just as the Cenarion War Hippogrpyh, and the "Of the Shattered Sun" title, along with others, from TBC and Vanilla WoW, this has been implemented to attract the attention of players and to get them to spend their gold on it. They use items, rewards and titles like this to balance the amount of gold on one server. Other than repairs, buying the odd item from a vendor, and reagents, most gold on servers is recycled back to players on said server, so eventually people are going to say "HAI, I HAS 100000000000000000 GOLD AND NUTTIN TO DOES WIT IT"... well, along those lines if they have bad grammer. Getting players to spend their gold on things like these limits the probability of a total monopoly being carried out on a server, and prevents 'Johnny Never Went to School' from getting his 100000000000000000 gold.

Requires Level 40

Hmm....*buys for level 40 alt to make people go "WTF."*

Edit: There we go (now with a working link)

Kommentar von Watuwant

so you gonna pay 16000g to buy this and run a taxi service for 5 silver a trip...

man you signed a bad bank loan. I hope you get a goverment bailout

Hell, I'm from the US and I'm hoping you're not referring to a Gov't bailout from the US.

Kommentar von 536612

Doh! what did you expect? anti-money?

*sarcasm*

Kommentar von 539691

I don't understand why people buy this. You can get one at the prize of 8500 gold if you're Exalted with the Sons of Hodir. Only minus is that you don't get the vendors and that it's white instead of brown.

( I prefer white myself =P )

Kommentar von magik8ball

I always feel bad whenever I use this mount, knowing that I just stranded two NPCs.

Kommentar von Office

Imagine a Gnome with it and a Tauren at passenger seat! :)

Kommentar von Shaheed

how can you use the vendors?

Kommentar von Esilenna

Can anyone confirm that this mount still has vendors?

Kommentar von Daylos

With the expansion coming, is there any change in the price of this mount? I want to double check to make sure the price doesn't drop like duel speccing did right before I dropped 1k to get it done. Thanks in advance.

Kommentar von 415049

For those of you who use the repair vendor but not the other one, this is quite a nice macro;
#showtooltip Traveler's Tundra Mammoth
#show Traveler's Tundra Mammoth
/cast Traveler's Tundra Mammoth
/in 3 /run EjectPassengerFromSeat(2)

Kommentar von Zero22

is this really not affected by crusader aura?

Kommentar von Benegesserit

The food vendor has not been updated for Cataclysm despite normal vendors selling the new food. :(

Kommentar von valfader

I am not sure if this is intended or not, but currently this mount does not have vendors on it anymore. At least not in Hyjal.

Kommentar von Eihrister

Does this mount change as well when you're in Shadowform as a Priest? Or does it just consider you as a passenger? In the latter case, the mount probably won't get the Shadowy look as any other mount would?

Kommentar von 796131

I was wondering if you get to keep the gold from the vendors on this. like say if someone would like to repair there gear then would you get that gold from that repair?

Kommentar von BlizzardB

Here's how I did it and I farmed it for someone else with only an honored discount in Dalaran:

As a level 85, you're entitled to enter Tol Bared. You are required to be a skinner and at max level for this to work, however. For my sever, Skullcrusher, people price Savage Leather at around hundred gold per stack. I don't know how it works for Alliance players, but I imagine they'd enter a similar or the same way as the Horde do. Go to the swamp area in Tol Bared above by taking a right outside of the horde base camp and another right and you should look on your map and find it there after that. People doing dailies come through there all the time to kill crocs for Tol Bared commendations. These people often loot what they kill. This means all you have to do is walk up to the body and skin it. There are tons of crocs and their respawn times are very fast. Go around skinning as long as your faction has won and you'll get tons of money selling it on the Auction House. I made around 13K in 2 days. Outcome may vary because I put in a lot of time in to killing them and skinning. You might not and spread it over a week or so. But you make a lot of money.

Kommentar von 634637

Sons of Hodir have one that doesnt have vendors for like 10000 cheaper.

Kommentar von ghmaster8

but if you are in a lvl 24 guild you'll have a 10% discount which means, the lowest price you can buy the item for is 14k :D

edit: that is like buying the hog from AH and its better then the hog.. in some cases at least, i personally wouldn't want to be too big :p

Kommentar von ghmaster8

with no vendors.

Kommentar von 829438

Please note that guild level 24 (Bartering) reduces the price by another 10%, bringing the rock-bottom price of this mount to a "mere" 14,000 gold. Such a deal!

Also, while no faction lowers the prices on the on-board vendors, Bartering does apply to these vendors.

Kommentar von elrich4rd

i love hace this mount on my druid,, so big! i like to repair anywhere,, but theres a problem.. this vendors only sells food and mana 19000 mana over 30sec from LK expancion and now we are on cataclysm maybe its a good idea they sell food from cata with 96000 over 30sec will be more usable and reliable..

Kommentar von 783385

Bought it today for 14k, exalted with Kirin Tor ofc (very easy to get with badges).

Edit: bartering removed 2k.

Kommentar von 60456

This item was added in Wrath of the Lich King, so the vendors only sell vanilla up to Wrath of the Lich King items.

The vendors does not sell Cataclysm items, so if you think you will get your personal drink vendor, think again.

The best mana drink sold is the Honigminztee.

Kommentar von iwillmoou

This mount requires level 40 to learn.

Kommentar von thirteene

Anyone coming back here to purchase this mount, should be aware that per blue post (too lazy to look it up) we should be expecting Bind to Account Mounts in the near future. This being the case, I am actually going to partake in this Gold Dump so all of my toons will have access to it.

A more relevant comment is that if you happened to miss WotLK you should potentially be able to create a new Goblin and get it to Dal for the full 20% Korin Tor discount without having to grind old dungeons with a tabard or just do a JP dump (Be sure to join your guild for Bartering). Just keep in mind that blue posts are intended updates, and not garenteed to happen.

Kommentar von Piperfawn

Loremaster's best friend, but it would be nice if Blizz updated vendors on this mount to sell Cataclysm food and drink, since we're in late Cata now.

Kommentar von Guy19

I generally use this (when able to mount) when I'm trying to clear up bag space, far from a city (like in a dungeon). Other items you could use for the same purpose include:

/ Gildenherold, if the requirements to buy have been met.
Argentumgrunzling / Argentumknappe, if you have a Zügel des Argentumponys.
Jeeves, if you're an engineer / one's present.
Mobile Banking, if your guild's high enough lvl.

Hope the list helped, feel free to add items I may have missed. :)

Kommentar von VindicoSolus

This mount was originally NOT going to be on the list of account-wide mounts in Mists of Pandaria. However, a decision was quite recently 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!
