Comment by FelFeyn

Just got this cutie a few minutes ago on live!

Comment by Drizztreri

May be helpful to note that you can obtain the mount on any number of Mawsworn Supply Chests - it does not have to be your first chest of the day to obtain the loot. I received the mount on my 10th or so chest of the day on that toon, ~50th chest overall. I had toons on different realms camped on Antecedent Isle (island on northern part of ZM) that I would periodically hop through, and every 15-20min there seemed to be another chest up on each realm to loot.

Comment by Texasdroman

Got mine on live today. US took about 2 hours 200+ chest

Comment by Slacktivist

Extremely lucky, got mine today - first mawsworn chest I looted on Antecedent Isle.

Comment by Pihalecsmrti

Spectral Mawrat's Tail can drop from any Mawsworn Supply Chest on the island. You can obviously choose the hardcore method and brute farm it with the help of realm hopping (I will write down how to do this), or you can just get it passively with your own pace.

How to brute farm the mount (It's been confirmed you can loot it randomly, and the chests are not once per day lockout):

1. Park yourself at the Antecedent isle. The island has only 4 chest locations, meaning they are abit clumped up.
2. Realm hop with the help of the group finder. There are millions of groups up for the rares. Just join random groups, check if the chest is up, loot it, leave. If the chest isn't up, just leave. Important to note: Wait a few seconds to actually see if you zoned to a different realm. The lag is massive (usually because of Dune dominance rares) and sometimes phasing is abit slower.

How to normally, or how I farmed this mount:

I have 12 alts anyways, and the best gearing option for all my low geared is Zereth Mortis. I kill alot of rares, and since the 3 Dune dominance ones give you free 246 ilvl weapons, I hang there most often. On some I see the chests, on some I don't. The ones I see, I just loot, on the ones I don't, no issue, just log another one or wait abit.

I received the mount on my roughly 60th chest. From all the gathered data so far, I would assume it has a 0.5% ish droprate.

Comment by TheGreatLucy

Got mine Today! Didn't know there is a mount there! Surprised OMG I'M So Lucky!

Comment by Wyo1

why the heck are they adding hundreds of new mounts with each patch. Its getting too much, in BC we collected 30 mounts total and today SL xpac alone has 300 mounts to collect, pure inflation. Back in the day you felt special when new mount was added, now its just one more. The totals achievement hasnt been touched for years now, dont get their strategy on mounts. Pets is similar.

Comment by Daenaara77

Similarly to what Pihalecsmrti mentioned, there is another location for Mawsworn chest farm using realm hopping.

You can find the location here: /way 60.18, 31.07

Three confirmed Mawsworn chest spawns that I found in this location are here:
/way 59.40, 31.39
/way 60.10, 32.35
/way 60.95, 30.55

There are a lot of mobs and it can be quite crowded but I personally found this area much easier and faster to farm compared to Antecedent Isle as the caches here are very close to one another.
It is also best to use a class that has stealth and ability to stealth during combat as you will more likely aggro the wardens when looting the chest.

Comment by Busucel

Received this mount after 308 boxes. Don't lose hope! There are some positives as well that you can think of if you end up grinding for a long time: gold from selling Progenitor Essentia and lots of Cyphers of the First Ones that you need regardless to unlock the meta zone achievement.

I ended up farming around the Dune Dominance bosses as a druid using stealth around the epic mobs. I tried avoiding realm hoping to groups that have less than 5 members already in them - annoying as a leader to have people join and leave immediately but I thought that with a large group that doesn't matter as much.

Good luck!

Comment by skyline33

Was really hoping for a "spectral tiger" type of spectral mawrat...

Comment by Haxan

I was just opening a chest today and got this mount. Didn't even know it existed. And I don't play very often. :D

Comment by Redroach21

It says "spectral", but gives you "colossal", which honestly let me down twice...

Comment by Pierroty

Just opened one of those small chests in the desert area of ZM that just spawned next to me while I was waiting for Iska and boom, there was a mount... okay...

Comment by Danaan

After getting the Mawrat from Iska I decided to circle around, hoping for this one and finally...after 371 chests... it dropped.
I'm so glad that this odyssey is over.

Comment by Richardbro

I have looted 558 chests and still no mount drop. The drop rate is abysmal. If you want to realm hop with the least amount of disruption to other players, I recommend joining Antros world boss groups. They will mostly be auto accepted invites anyway.

Comment by Acapulka

344 boxes and here we are. All made by myself without any group jumping (we are not unpolite pieces of jumpers, right?)
500k of gold on spheres, 2k+ of ciphers, 29k of cosmic flux. In my opinion best way is to do it as druid in bird form.

Comment by DreamerFarrah

After a little over 184 attempts, the mount dropped. Flew around in circles covering all the spots without group jumping or anything.

Comment by Richardbro

Finally got Spectral Mawrat's Tail after 605 chests. The drop rate is indeed around 0.5%. Don't give up, the Progenitor Essentia you can loot will at least give you some gold. Each chest will also give 1% credit towards Patterns Within Patterns so you can at least multitask.

My favorite spot is chilling on top of the pyramid at /way 60 32. There are two chests that spawn on the front left and front right on the base of the pyramid. There is also another chest that spawns ahead below the stairs, to the left beside the cages. The chest on the left base side of pyramid can be looted on the pyramid without aggroing the mob there.

If you realm hop (Antros groups are great, and won't disrupt other players much), you can get a lot of chests here. I averaged 5-20 chests per hour here with no need to fly around.

The chests will stay active for a minute or two after another player loots them but will disappear off the minimap, so be sure to manually check if they are still there. The chests have a respawn time between 5 minutes to 1 hour and 30 minutes.

Comment by Devaal

216 chests! Circle around ALL spawns and physically look because 80% of the chests will NOT be triggered by a rare scanner. Good luck!

Comment by CRYPTsakura

Seems i was very lucky, 66 attempts, just when i saw that mount (which is ugly AF), was rly happy... This was my the latest mount from Zereth i could get (from drops and not counting raid), so i am hella happy

Comment by hellathor

I got this mount but it is not on my list of mounts why is it not there if i got the mount plz help blizz is not help at all all you do i run around in circles trying to get help when there is none

Comment by Oxyia

Currently 300 attempts with no luck. Really hope to get it before i hit 400.

Comment by Deathspiker

Just had this drop for me out my 2nd mawsworn chest while doing dailys, had no idea it was so rare, perhaps this is for those 1000s of icc runs i had to do, pretty cool mount also sadly its just using the hyena rig with the shadehound noises.

Comment by Elitecookie

The addon Rarity says its around 200 tries and then i get it at 199. That's amazing.

Comment by boogg

They always seem to spawn in pairs. 300+ tries and no luck.

Comment by mutiilation

***WORTH READING BEFORE HUNTING THESE CHESTS***

Farming method:

Fly around in 1 direction cycling through the spawn points already mentioned on this comment section.

You will only server hop once you have done the route 3 times and didn't find any chest, there should always be an Antros group around for this purpose (I must stay I rarely had to server hop)

You want to CHECK FOR YOURSELF every spawn point regardless you see the minimap icon, here is why:

-I've seen chests icons on mini map and found the chest somewhere else, this also cleared the minimap icon.
-I've opened chests where I couldn't see any minimap icon (Icon could have been out of my reach).
-I've seen minimap icons and then see the chest spawn right there after a bit, however I don't recommend camping them but flying around instead.
~~-I think spawn points rotate with days, I noticed patterns depending on the day that I was farming this.~~
-I don't know if they spawn by pair and/or whether you need to clear both chest for timer to start, however it does seem they spawn by pair.
-Clearing other types of chest won't have any effect on this.
-There are 1 or 2 spawn points not listed in this thread but are really close to the ones marked.
-I am almost certain that War Mode share CD on both, there was one day where regardless my WM setting I would see the chest icon on minimap but the chest was
nowhere to be found, I spent a whole day coming back and forth and it remained the same until next soft reset, maybe the chest was not marked on minimap
and noone opened due to been on tricky spot (This happened before I learned all the tricks I am sharing.
-I don't really like tracking the amount of chest/rares I've tried before getting something but by the time I am writing this I am close to 100 chests and still no mount.

Comment by Normalusername

Just opened a mawsworn chest for the first time ever and got this mount? Is that normal?

Comment by kyneticwolf

304 chests in and this is feeling super discouraging. Rarity considers me "unlucky", and then I read people with 500+ attempts and I can't help but imagine I'm heading down that same path. I've spent days here flying circles. I feel like I'm going crazy.

Comment by bshild94

400 boxes and still counting.....

Edit: Box 434 finally dropped

Comment by Raincloud

18 chests and then it dropped.

Comment by Alvtron

2 chests and then it dropped.

Comment by NoChill

Still drops on antros raid groups

Comment by Rozeblaadje

555 attempts.. Still wont drop...

Antros raidgroup swapping is how I get the fastest new boxes.

Dont give up lovely people <3

EDIT: 747 Attempts and it finally dropped. I AM FREE.

Comment by CoWmie

Got super lucky with this one, decided to farm it today while waiting around for the Dune-dudes and got it in my 23rd chest according to Rarity.

Comment by Ashwraith

142 attempts today it dropped. Kinda didn't realize this was a mount until this past week I guess, and I farmed the crap out of it off and on all week.

Comment by Frostfirecz

Can it still drop in dragonlands? I have opened like 300 chests and still nothing. Is there a chance they removed it?

Comment by Takrem

I can confirm that it still drops in Dragonflight.
I was very unlucky and got it after 576 boxes.
If you don't want to fly around (like me), I can recommend that you stand on the stone at coordinates /way 48.73 46.12.
There you have 5 chests within reach which you can see on the minimap.

Edit: Does anyone know how to embed coordinates in a comment without "/way"?

Comment by DrBob

got it after 13 tries easy

Comment by Tajnis

got it after 271 boxes.

Comment by kyneticwolf

I gotta be honest, this has been the most mind-numbing and frustrating mount farm I have ever done. I was 600+ attempts when I gave up the first time. Since then I had reset my addons and UI and lost my Rarity count. I've restarted it and currently have 327 attempts recorded. I've been swapping between 3 characters. One WM off, two MW on (one of these on an RP realm). I even at one point had a second account going so I could double loot chests.

Update: I got the mount today after just over 1000 attempts total. 373 attempts since my initial attempts were wiped from Rarity. I know I sound very dramatic but out of 600 mounts this was my unluckiest by far. About 4 hours after making my initial comment... lol.

Comment by LeifiPlomeros

Just got it while doing cyphers of the first ones. Seeing as most people have a hard time farming this I'd venture a guess that the drop chance is higher while the quests are active. Might warrant some further study if anyone is up for it. I was on the quests Keys To Victory, Cleaving a Path and A Matter Of Motivation. Venthyr covenant active at renown 80 on a level 70 Havoc DH if that helps.

Comment by Eowyn26
