Can't believe it is true but I just got my mount for my Tauren warrior in US-Herod after 156 multi-boxing runs with my mage! I can finally play this game!

Great mount. A bit of a status symbol in the game (although, by having it, all it means is that you can make it to the end of Strat and defeat Baron Rivendare). As the other comments say, the droprate is extremely low. Entire guilds have broken up because this mount drops.

A very cool mount, if it ever drops, I'll give you the "OK" to officially freak out. This mount is extremely rare and very much seen as a status symbol as jasoncavett said. It makes a tier3 priest jealous, *looks at a lvl60 dwarf hunter in greens*...grr.

Its a great mount should you be so lucky to see it drop.
Definately is something to be admired.
It is definately one of the lowest drop rate within the game at the moment.
UD strath run 141. Still no Mount!
Good Luck!

From what I've heard, it has the same chance to drop as any BoE Epic at level 60 but only from Baron Rivendare. This rumor seems true, as it is most likely the rarest item in the game.

Now it's a bit more easy to get it, as at lvl 70 with diecent gear you can solo Stratholme and try farming it.

Edit: the drop rate is now 1.0% as of patch 3.0.2, up from 0.02% (
source
). I will leave the rest of this comment as-is for posterity's sake.
Deathcharger is a black (per its model skin description) skeletal warhorse mount, notorious for its incredibly low drop rate - perhaps the lowest drop rate of
any
epic item. The
undead PvP mount
is red (unlike all other PvP mounts, which are black) in order to differentiate it from this mount. As of 9/6/2008, Wowhead has seen 3 drops out of 7057 kills...
(3/7057) * 100% =
0.04%
For one run of a given instance, the odds are higher that...
Swift White Hawkstrider
drops (61x more likely)
Ashes of Al'ar
drops (40x more likely)
Swift Razzashi Raptor
drops (28x more likely)
Reins of the Raven Lord
drops (23x more likely)
Fiery Warhorse's Reins
drops (18x more likely)
Swift Zulian Tiger
drops (10x more likely)
Baron's Runeblade
drops (3x more likely)
You are audited by the IRS
You will catch a baseball at a MLB game
You die from slipping in a bathtub
You have a life
If you're in a group, divide the chance by five :)

Can you do a stealth run?
评论来自

Nope, you have to kill the bosses in the 3 ziggurats, then the waves of abominations, followed by a wave of skellys, then finally Ramstein. All this must be done before the gates will open to the slaughter house where the Baron resides.

Does this mount only have a chance of dropping if you kill Baron within 45 mins or can it drop within any time limit?
评论来自

This mount is available to any race, class, and faction. There are no special requirements to get this to drop, it can drop in a 45 minute run or in a 6 hour one, no difference. You must also have the 150 riding skill to be able to use it. It is arguably one of the rarest drops in the game currently.

There are rumors that one in the party needs to be exalted to drop. But this is hardly proven, as much as there are rumors that it has dropped without someone exalted in the party.
Nor did the droprate increase exponentially overtime as more people got exalted.
So, if it's true, unlikely. >_>

Greetings I am Ultrazord of Tichondrius who was one of the lucky ones to get this mount. Just a little info about the run.
It was right after the mount riding skill change so I did have to pay 900g for training (540 now I believe).
The run was warrior, lock, rogue, druid, mage. Only 1 was higher then revered w/ argent dawn as 3 of them were alts helping people get rep for naxx attunement. Rep does not mean anything
We killed Baron with a lucky execute after 3 people died and trash had repopped with no soul stone up. A wipe would have ruined our chances of this dropping. I doubt this matters though. Note though it was almost a 3 hour run so 45 minutes doesn't mean anything.
I won the roll with a 47 of 100. It was group loot and we just said everyone roll need. It was my 5th run on my warrior, though I had done it before on other toons.
Great mount to sit in Shattrah or IF. Even this late in the expansion I still get a few tells a day about it. If you're bored, try farming it, but don't hold your breath.

You can stealth run it, It took me a while but I did it because of that huge undead zerg after ramstein, but basically I stealthed to all 3 bosses, killed them, stealth to the gate, killed the aboms, ramstein, undead zerg with stratholme holy water, then the final 5 elite skelly pull. Went into his room, being a rogue mind you, evasioned, and started beating him down, when skellies spawned, AR and BF so he doesnt consume them for HP, and if you don't kill him by the second skelly zerg, use stratholme holy water yet again, volia~ !
IMO, this takes a while, it may be worth it to some, but others it may not. The run probably took me around 30 mins to do solo.
My gear is on par around Hyjal - BT, so that may be why, but other rogues I've spoken to that have done it, need to health pot and such.
Edit - Takes me 20 minutes now, also an easier strat - after ramstein pops out, run into the slaughterhouse and kill him in there. As he dies, run down around Baron's door and stealth and eat. As those 5 skelles pop, start attacking them. You wont have to deal with the undead zerg, keeping in mind their aggro range is gigantic. I got my mount after the 14th run finally, very lucky =]

i have been farming baron as a rogue for a couple of weeks now. a perfect run can be as fast as 15min, on average it takes me 20min. the large brilliant shards and greater eternal essences are very popular and people pay big gold for those on the auction house so even if one doesn't get luck with the mount disenchanting the lvl60 items yields high incomes :) you can find an uncut video of a typical 18min baron run here:

Quite simply, this is one of the rarest items in the entire game. That includes legendary loot droprates. Do not be surprised if you never even see this item in your entire WoW career.
Even with its farmable status amongst the new level 70 playerbase, it has only become more rare because of the lack of knowledge of pre-BC instances.
Good luck, you're going to need it.

I'm not sure how my post was removed from here, but it dropped 2 weeks ago for me. It was Velen's first server drop. Grats Hordiez!! I lost the roll to a very very happy 57 holy pally, She is now lvl 60 and has been using the mount, congrats to Mistress :)
I have done a total of 31 side door runs to baron for my beast pants which still hasn't dropped but the deathcharger dropped once. The other epic blade has never dropped yet for me.

Very easy as a feral druid.
Soloing up to Baron is easy as pie.
Kill the 3 bosses and all their caster people.
then you can easy take the abominations down 1 by 1.
And then barkskin hurricane the little skelleys down. They will all be dead by the final tick.
Baron is a bit more tough.
The trick is to stay in bear form.
Keep up dps as much as you can and when the skelleys come out swipe will one shot them if it crits.
When low on life just use frenzied regeneration, or pop out for a barkskin regrowth/rejuv
it will take about 8 or so waves of skelleys but ive never died!
I will get his mount!!

My skeleton zerg tactic as Hunter is - Frost Trap in front of gate before engaging Ramstein, nuking him down, misdirection on Pet, Volley on the mobs, sending Pet to attack a random skeleton (with Defensive on), run in Explosive Trap and Holy Water, basically all die.
I put on 2x Tier 5 for the set bonus, keeps Pet up combined with Mend Pet no problem.
I got sword around 30 runs, have cut back to only 1 a day or so, i got abit obsessed with running it.

Fairly easy to solo on my druid. I have a mix of Kara, badge, and ssc loot (spyglass, staff).
I can do the run in an about 20 minutes without killing a single unnecessary mob.
Baron himself is easy, just beat him up, keep lacerate up, and swipe when the adds pop up to down them before he heals.
Run about 10 times in the past couple days, and I only die when I get careless and impatient moving around in the crowded areas instead of waiting for the gargoyles to path away.
Also, Eye of Naxxramas will really give you problems if you get spotted in a crowd.
barkskin + hurricane works wonders on the rat trap, and the undead zerg after rammstein.

According to The Armory (Blizzards own site:
http://www.wowarmory.com/item-info.xml?i=13335
), Deathcharger's Reins has a 1-2% chance to drop. I guess it can be somewhat inaccurate, but considering the numbers are officially Blizzards own, I guess one could count with a drop rate around those numbers.

I really do hate this game sometimes, i DC'd when i had 1 abomination left before ramstein, i logged back in after 1-2 minutes and they all respawned on my $%^&!

Extremely rare... but we dropped the runeblade on our 2nd run when we were bored (Spriest,Priest,Lock - lol nobody could use it), so... everything is possible.
Farming it on a lock is quite easy, just takes more time than classes than can stealth through. You can do it on almost any spec, but Ramstein and Baron can prove being difficult. Best result I got is Felguard SL/SL spec with double T5 bonus, which basically allows you to cruise through the instance, killing everything in comfort. At 1400 shadow dmg, felguard crits up to 1k and rarely looses aggro. Clear only the spiders and banshees on the way + gargoyles. Bosses are joke... well-timed Seed of Corruption on Baron and all is fine. Each run is about 40-50g in BoP blues and stuff + BoE that still sell pretty well on AH - one in one it is not wasting time while trying for the mount
Wrong letter, obviously I meant SoulSiphon/SoulLink/Felg spec

Ive managed to solo Strat with my Shockadin buffed with 830 spell dmg. Its not so bad, ive done the 45 min runs atleast 4 time successfully. The Necros with the life/mana drain kills me however, ive managed not to die on them anymore. Im currently at my 30th run, and hope to see the mount soon. Its a killer cause its taking me roughly 35 to 40 mins to clear. I need to get my gear upgraded and enchanted to do these runs i faster i think. Oh well good luck, hope someone else gets the mount soon, if not me XD.

One may consider farming this item since it's one of the most unique items in game and in my opinion "The rarest".
So far, I have in my own record "307" solo runs since June 2007, I'm a tauren so this mount is worth it for me to get to show off with. But It's not the only reason I've been making all the trouble farming it. As an enchanter, this is a good source of Brilliant Shards that are needed for Oils and old school enchants, so far from Strath alone (using CTRA cash history and Historian) I managed to get what's equal to 170'000g from that place alone in 8 months.
1 run = 8-10 shards, 0-3 Greater Eternal essences, 0-7 Illusion dusts, 0-1 random BoE's (including Orb of Deception and epic BoE's), Healing and mana potions for level 35 (stock your levelling alts with potions :D) 1-3 stacks of Runecloth and chance to the rarest mount in whole game with no arguments.
Time for it for average feral druid: 30mins
If I'm not lucky enough to get it to drop before WotLK, I think I'll switch to farming Swift White Hawkstrider.

Dropped on a random first run (after many months of never stepping foot in Strat) for a guildy because they were "bored".
We have another guildy that has run it multiple times after raid every night for almost 6 months with nothing but a pile of level 60 blues to show for it.

Annoyingly I got my Amani War Bear last night, and my desire to run Stratholme has pretty much depleted, after 300+ runs, I feel it's pretty much time to give up, even if the gold frm enchanting is very high. Personally, I think the drop rate is abit too low, feels like it was something that should of been buffed in the past, I've honestly never seen this on my server or in xrealm battlegrounds and i've played since the game was released. I saw it once on PTR, and ganked the guy out of frustration.

Still farming this, done over 300 but stopped counting tbh. Been asking myself for ages now "Why am i still doing this, it won't drop", i'd of stopped if the gold wasn't so good, on my server Greater Eternal Essence is making 20g+, my luckiest run yielded my 9 Essences, so that's a ridiculous ammount fo gold for what takes me 20 minutes on my Hunter.
I'll keep at it, but I don't expect it to drop, it is really just pure luck.

OK, I have a really stupid n00b question to ask. How the HELL can you solo this as a lvl 70?
A few days ago, I thought I'd have a try to get this (solo):
https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/item=13379
I thought it would be amusing to have. Now, I've never done Stratholme. Quick look on here to see the location of the mob I want and hey ho off I go.
I go in through the only entrance I can find (what appears to be the 'main' entrance). And it all then goes pear shaped. Either in Stealth mode or unstealthed, I can't get past the first groups of mobs without getting splattered. Now, my gear isn't good (greens & blues, no epics yet), so is it possible to get through to the Baron to try and get this mount? (Forget the Piccolo now).
Or do I need to go away get some decent gear and/or some help?

Just confirming that the deathcharger still drops
Just got it on my solo first attempt as a feral druid (tank gear earthwarden heavy clefthoof etc).
My faction was friendly so rep doesnt have anything to do with it droppping.
I did do it in the 45min just but i doubt that had anything to do with it dropping it's just a ramdom drop.
Easy fight swipe swipe swipe like crazy to get skels down fast
didnt need to pop out to heal just used frenzied rejuv.
To anyone still trying dont give up the chance it still there :)

Got the runeblade 1 time as well during the grind.. all in all its extremely rare, but if ur in luck u might get it somewhat faster than the drop rates suggest.

Great money from clearing this, I got 9 Large Brilliant Shards per run, which ends up being about 100g alone with our economy, not to mention disenchanting the greens and selling the grays. So even if you don't get it to drop, just think of all the money you're making :D

Lost track around the 30th run, but it's now at least at 80 runs (and counting), usually around 25 min per run, with the best at just a little more than 20 min. I guess that if I optimized dps with potions, elixirs, foodbuff and whatnot, I would be able to cut at least 3-4 min off that 20 min. I'm a frostmage specced 10/0/51, and in a mix of merciless/vengeful + the spellhaste trinket from bwl (
https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/item=19339
). That trinket together with the Icy Veins-talent, makes frostbolts a 1.72 sec uninterrtuptible cast for 20 sec, great for exactly the fight against Baron Rivendare.

as a warlock it's just pain... 40-50 minutes per run, considering mobspawn waypoints and moblevels...

After deciding I needed to make some gold I thought farming Stratholme for the Deathcharger Reins would be a fun way to make money. After about 40 or so runs over the span of 2-3 weeks I made around 3k-4k gold easily from DEing everything and looting all the silver off mobs. I started to lose interest in farming for the mount and just used Stratholme as a way to make gold considering Large Brilliants and Greater Eternals sell for a hefty price on the AH. Randomly this morning I decided to do a couple runs and on my 3rd run the mount dropped. Nobody in my guild believed me at first until they saw me in IF lol!

Many ppl that solo this are bt/hyjal geared (or i think so). This could BE soloable with a rogue s1 geared. (Tho the 1st time i got there i was killed many times) But in my 2nd try i just died at baron =/ The only reason that s1 rogues solo this is that they have much hp. (i have 10k hp) Anyway,it was a bit hard,took me many mins (around 35 min)

I'm very proud to say I got this mount ;-)
Its imba just so many people that ask where it's from cause they never saw a dwarf hunter on an Undead mount before ;-)
In the beginning i told them how to get it SOOOO many others tried to farm it but as far as i know non got the mount yet! On sunstrider (my server) there are as far as i know 3other alliance people that have the mount i even used to be in a guild where we had 2mounts (me and another)
After a long long time of getting asked where its from i got so sick of it though that i started to tell people i killed the hourse vendor for the Undead and when he was down i looted him and got that horse ;-)
I have it for about 1year now i'll post a picture of it when i figure out how to ;-)
as far as my tactic i just kill the mobs that are in my way i do it in 40minutes 0whipes

After 230 runs my Deathchargers Drops ! I'm really happy this night. I have to say thanks to this thread because many of those posts gave me power to don't give up. That was the phrase that was in my mind all the time: "dont' give up". Also have to say a thanks to my DE partner Heiler who did a lot of runs with me, including the one where it drops. I gave to him as a gift one of the orb of deceptions that i got in Strat.
Class: Undead Rogue (T6 geared)
Average Time: 20-23 min per run
Record Time: Me, Heiler and a hunter: 13 min
Gold: Around 15-20k (3 epics, 2 orbs of deception, tons of boe blues and DE stuff)
For those that will say that im an Undead and would be easier to buy a plain skelly horse i dont care. This is THE UNDEAD MOUNT and i dream with it since my first day in wow.

Today i make a GM ticket about this mount (coz i killed Baron around 50 times and nothing) and the GM say:
"This item does exist yes, the drop rate is very low however, in fact recently a guildie of mine got it , atfer
431
kills"
About the rumor "You must be exalted with argent dawn to have it" he say:
"No that is just a rumor,not true in any way."
So i need to be very patient and maybe min 350 kills to have my favorite mount in game or just make UD rogue and get racial mount

After 1141 runs I finally got it, along with one Runeblade, 6 Pristine Black Diamonds, and countless blues and greens that have been disenchanted and sold.
Oddly enough, it drops the very day I finish upgrading from Lightforge to full Soulforge, figuring that if I ever DID get the mount, I had better have some Death Knight-ish armor.

It'd be a LOT smarter to farm AFTER Wrath and you hit level 80, it'd be so much easier. That is why I'm not even attempting until atleast 75.

you dont really need the fire elemental for the skelletons after rammstein, you can also use the earth elemental with magma totem and fire nova (and if you do it right, the earth elemental will also tank the black guard), that way you can use the fire elemental against the baron and it will be a lot faster

I must admit that I don't think it's all that impressive looking. In my opinion the Zulian Tiger, Wintersaber, and Qiraji battle tank are all cooler. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to have it, but as far as the coolest mount goes I don't think this is it.

The Battletank is only rare because people had a 12 hour window to grab it; not because it was a particularly hard mount to get. IMO This would be the hardest to get as it has a %.01> drop rate and requires you to spend hours soloing Strat. I'm currently trying to farm 2 >,>

To all those brave fools who are farming this mount, here are some tips:
1: NEVER tell yourself "It's going to drop this time!", or "It's going to drop next time!", or even "It's going to drop in the next 100 runs!".
2: Get enchanting. Level it to 225. If you are serious about getting this mount, you NEED to get enchanting.
3: Create several different playlists of different styles of music, podcasts, or radio programs. Alternatively, talk to some friends over the communication program of your choice.
4: When grouping with another player, ALWAYS have master looter on before fighting Baron.
5: Don't burn yourself out. Only do a certain number of runs per day, otherwise the police will find the collapsed remnants of your face embedded into the keyboard.
6: Think of this as a money making opportunity rather than farming for the mount, because if you have enchanting, you WILL make money, and lots of it!
And most importantly....
7: DON'T GIVE UP!
Good luck, and hopefully you will have a few shreds of sanity left once it drops!

I got it while soloing with my S3 Ms Warrior.
To kill it, i just charged into the battle, used rend, thunderclap and demoralizing shout.
Then i kept MS-ing and overpowering rivendare til the first sekelton wave appeared.
At this point i used retailiation, and spammed victory rush, which got the most dmg on him in this fight.
After the first wave he was around 25 percent, just smacked him down til he was ready to be executed.
Another Skeletonwave came right before he died which i simply cleaved to death.
And he also dropped the mount on my first solo run (had around 200+ runs with a mage friend before)...

I just want to be sure, but do you have to kill the Baron in the 45 minute run to have a chance at the reins?

I'd reccomend anyone grinding this to take up enchanting first. You only need to sink about 100g in it to get it to about 200 skill where you can dis anything from Strat.
With blues and greens I'm making around 60g a run + the cash and cloth drops (I only pick up runecloth and disenchantable items). That comes out about 75g a run, and I've mastered it down to about 15 mins a run barring no Eye of Naxxramas pulls that can get messy. A good hour here nets me 300-350g.
20 runs down with no mount, but 1500g happier :D

I have get my Deathcharger's Reins yesterday evening for my Dreanei female warrior. <3 Damn, I'm so damn happy. I have yelling at street for 10 mins, kissed my dog 3 times and etc. :D
I have Farmed baron with 5-man group preBC like 25-35 times with no drops. Then , I played Horde character and there was no point of having it unless you're a tauren. On my Draenei warrior I did total of 8 runs with my brother (frost mage) who have passed on mount for me!
Basicly, what I did on run then it drops (I know it is a city legend but still :P)? Did most of dungeon with only
Lovely Blue Dress
and 2-hander equiped (I was in a good mood), before I entered a dungeon I began to listen Rammstein (it's not the only group I listen but this music let me own everything, especially in arenas). In fact me and my bro mastered in Strat runs we wiped died both in diferent placed doing this run. :P
Ok, if speaking with less bull@#$%. Mount is a possible to get and it's only depends on a luck and on a Radnom. For intance, on my raiding hunter I have first killed Prince in Kara at the very begining of April 2007. Since that date I have farmed Prince in Karazahn, Zul'Jin in Zul'Aman, Vashj, Archimonde and Illidan. And for more that 1,5 years I never seen any of them drop a bow.
And last thing I'd like to say. WIth lastest changes on WotlK beta Four Horsemen fight in Naxxramax was changed and Baron Rivendare swaped his position with Highlord Morgraine. It is currently uknown, is there will be a valid replacement in Stratholme for him (and if you remeber Blizzard are lifting Amani bear from ZA timed event because for 80 level player it will be an easy loot. Why they can't do such thing for Stratholm?) And will this new Stratholm end boss will drop any mounts. So, if you are want this mount badly - double your effort to get it before patch 3.0.2 goes live.

What's funny is that as a post-TBC player, I never got to run Stratholme at lvl 58-60. So I decided to go back at llv 70 just for the fun of it, and to see what it was like (and an amazing instance it is, by the way).
And that mount dropped of Baron Rivendare. My very first time going up against him. Didn't even realized it was anything special until I rode it in the middle of Stormwind and noticed people's reactions to it!
I've run Stratholme countless times since then (now exalted with AD, to give you an idea, just from turning in scourgestones), and haven't seen it drop a second time.
Strat is easy to solo if you're a Holy Paladin with decent gear. Just remember, on the undead side, that many mobs can prevent your spellcasting or drain your mana. Therefore, don't try to take on too many of them at once and you'll be just fine. Bosses themselves are a zillion times easier than clearing the trash, so that's not even an issue (do put up Shadow Resistance aura vs the Baron).

Skeleton zerg after Ramstein can be avoided. Kill the last abomination just outside the door. As it opens run in and engage Ramstein straight away.
Pull him down to the Barons door and kill. Repeat for the Black Guards (be sure to catch them before they leave).
Easy :)

SO LONG! STRATHOLME! NEVER AGAIN!
Deadhed on Silvermoon server
The mount dropped for me tonight. I thought of you guys and took a screen shot of the instant when it happened.
A little background:
I never kept exact count, but estimate it at between 350 and 400 solo runs. Of course, I'm exalted with Argent Dawn... but I doubt that matters, it easy to get while grinding this mount. There were 10 minutes left on his de-buff when he died. It's just luck....
One weird thing, Rammstein had dropped the same Gauntlets of Valor 5 times in a row previously (BOE T1).... What are the odds of that? Was just a lucky night.
Important! To those who plan on doing the grind for this: Drop a profession and take enchanting, level it to 225 so you can DE everything that drops. You will at least be making thousands of gold while you grind this out.

Hmm I just came across this while browsing through achievements and just wanted to pop in.
I had no idea this mount was that rare, because me (prot pally) and my brother (frost mage) went to strath one night out of boredom and cleared it out (dead and live).
It dropped on our first baron kill. I passed because as a belf I farmed my exalted status with undercity to get the undead mount, he however got lazy. If I had known it was THAT rare I would have rolled on it.
f*cksauce.

What makes this mount rare is the that Alliance being able to have an undead mount. For horde its not as rare because you get one if you have the rep with Undercity. I know this is an obvious post, just keep seeing Horde post saying oh I got this drop and it seemed like no big deal....
Still farming for mine.... Good Luck!

Well, I'm around my 110th+ run, I stopped counting a while back.
I'm normally resto, I go feral for this and the money I've made from enchanting more than makes up for the respec cost.
As feral I can clear it in 19-22 min (23+ if I am unlucky and eyes spawn on me). I've collected around 250+ Large Brilliant Shards, and numerous other enchanting mats, and 1 orb of deception.
I highly recommend powerleveling 225 enchanting for this. The 100-200g you pay to do it you can make up in 2 Boss clears.
Im'a keep trying, its discouraging, but I'm making big bucks doing this ^.^ I'll repost if I get lucky!
-Best of luck to you all, Oom Draenor-Us

Incredibly easy to solo as a 70 feral druid. Cat form stealth around to each of the three ziggaraut bosses, no need to kill any of the trash....watch out for those that see stealth. If you get any aggro bear form and swipe them, you can usually kill your way out of it. In the rat trap use barkskin/hurricane they die in no time.
Once you get to the slaughterhouse, clear it then barkskin/hurricane the undead things. The elites are easy kills in bear form. Go to Baron, bear form--I usually just stack lacerate and mangle and bleed him to death, swipe the skeletons. Nothing to it I can do it in a few mins if I don't pull any adds while stealthing.
Killed him about 20times now, mainly clearing it for gold for my swift flight form--the Runecloth has been selling for a ton lately. No mount yet hope I get lucky.

When you compare this mount's droprate to others in the game, it's important to not forget a very important detail. This is to differ from droprate and rarity, how likely the boss is to drop the item and how likely it is for you to obtain it within a certain span of time.
It became quite popular a while ago for players who cleared the content to solo strat in 10 minutes or so, then running back, so let's say 15 minutes for a whole run. So this drastically increases your chances of obtaining the mount compared to other mounts that drop in raid instances that you can only do every few days or once every week.
So if you have the effort to do 3 runs every day, and you do zg for the tiger every reset it will take as long time to get both theoretically.
Don't take offense people, I just wanted to remind you to consider this fact when you're discussing rare mounts. Though I must honor this mount for the fact of that regardless of how often you've done all these strat runs once that you've gotten it, you would have spent way more time in there than in any other instance which drops a rare mount, when you only count the time that you were actually farming for them.

Finally got mine, 612 runs. Dual boxed a priest with my mage to make the runs faster. Incidentally it takes 511 baron runs to level a priest from 50 to 70 with no xp from anything else.
The grind has other benefits as well. I had enough runecloth to max out all my capital city reputations and made about 75,000g from selling the extra cloth and enchanting materials on the AH.

I am now one happy Tauren!
Somewhere around 25-30 Solo runs only, sorry to some of you trying with no luck after hundreds of runs.
Takes me 30 minutes per run as a warrior, I know some of you stealth classes do it much faster. I got very very lucky to say the least, my overall time spent is no doubt very small compared to some.
Wish I would have screenshot the loot pop-up ...In my excitement I forgot, just wanted to get that beautiful horse's skull into my bags as fast as possible!
One strange thing i noticed, My loot was...
? Silver drop (Don't Remember)
5x Runecloth
1x Scepter of the Unholy
1x Deathcharger's Reins
1x Tunic of the Cresent Moon
No Tier 0 leg drop on that run.

I've currently completed 26 post-patch runs with no luck yet. They may have increased the drop rate, but it's still not something crazy. That said, it really does rub you the wrong way when you see all of these people who haven't invested any time at all and are getting a mount that some people have spent days worth of playtime trying to obtain with no luck.
Grats to those who got it before me, perhaps I'll be less bitter once I've got my own :P

Since patch 3.0 i have run this place around 5 or 6 times to help people get the achievement. I ran the instance about 150-200 times pre patch never saw the mount drop. Since the patch i have seen it drop twice. I would say the drop rate has incressed or i have just gotten really lucky. Lost the roll on both though so doing it tonight by myself so i have no one to roll against.
In my 200 or so runs i have seen the runeblade drop 4 times.
Will edit later once i have done my runs on my sucuss.
-Smiley
EDIT: Today i ran it about 12 times on my own before i saw another mount.
So i do believe that the drop rate was incressed. I still am feeling pretty lucky considering i have seen three mounts drop in under 20 runs.

While lots of folks seem to think that the drop rate has been increased post 3.0, I have seen no hard evidence of it.
Granted, while the sample size is much smaller, a higher drop rate could be attributed to any number of server side factors... to boot, I'm at 3515 runs now, 16 of which have been post patch. I haven't seen the damn thing drop yet.

alot of people have found it as of 3.0..
i doubt itz coz of achievements people have found it (the achievement for clearing stratholme), since it was also rare when people farmed this instance a couple of times per day.

Based on what I'm seeing from
a thread on the WoW forums,
the drop rate has indeed been increased.
I've been following the mount for a while now- mostly because I found it to be hilarious that people were trying to farm the single rarest BoP drop in the game. There's a reason why there are maybe 3 people per server who have it...
...and then you go in there and people are saying it's dropping for them or their friends multiple times in the span of a few days.
I'm sorry, but with
this
item, it dropping that often on specific servers and then seeing that drop spike across all servers isn't just luck. With this item, the chances of such a spike happening are so abysmally low that the only other possibility is that
they buffed the drop rate.
With this item, the same person seeing it drop twice inside of a week isn't lucky- the odds of that happening
even one time
are astronomical.
Looks like I'm eating my words...

Was reading through the comments - and noticed one in particular listing that the Mount had taken the place of the leggings drop for him/her.
I would like to know if this is in fact what other folks are experiencing, as if it is, then there has definitely been some sort of mechanic change from Blizzard. Previously, the horse ONLY dropped in addition to your base three drops. The Blade could potentially take the place of one of the 3 drops, but the horse was an independent roll, and independent of the pre-determined '3 slots of loot' table.

Well, a third has just dropped in 6 days since patch on my server. I simply refuse to believe this is just down to "people killing Baron for achievement". No mount ever dropped in 3 years, with alot of pre-70 Strat runs, and thousands of lvl 70 solo runs by different people (I knew of 4-5 other "hardcore" farmers). 1 Mount maybe, 2... Well would be suspicious, but 3... Pretty much confirmed for me this has been buffed drop chance.

I really wish I knew how you could see the mount drop 4 times. Ive ran it 64 times with no mount and many more before the path with no mount. I've never even seen the sword.

I don't know if anyone has mentioned this before (most likely so), but it's definitely worth repeating:
When you've taken down the pre-bosses to gain access to the Slaughterhouse, you'll have to kill all the Abominations wandering the square to open it up. Once done,
Ramstein the Gorger
will come through the door, before it closes behind him.
However, if you kite the last Abomination close to the door, you can sneak into the Slaughterhouse and fight Ramstein there - thus avoiding the subsequent surge of undeads once he's slain. Also, this door is known to bug occasionally and won't open when it's supposed to - so getting inside ASAP is strongly recommended.
Just be ready to fight the 5-6
Black Guard Sentries
who will spawn instantly where you killed Ramstein. :)

Just dropped for me on my tenth run. Took another friend of mine about fifteen runs. In other words, the drop rate has dramatically increased...

Not so much saying that people who continue to farm it are crying about being robbed (even though it is gay to have people put in so little time and just be that lucky, but such is rng :( 4 guild members have gotten mount since 3.0 within 3-16 total for each person, while I've been in there night and day without such luck), but to the people who got it prior to 3.0 in just a few (few being ~100 imo) runs and think they're special and earned it crying on forums (or in my case gchat) that it's no longer rare and its value is lost. Because like many others I've farmed this mount well before 3.0,and will continue to farm it until it finally drops, I just don't want someone telling me my mount (assuming it ever drops) is inferior because I had a "better chance to get it" when infact I put in more time than them.

I can finally say that I own a Deathcharger...it took me approximately 200 runs between pre-bc, and solo runs during bc. Based on the facts I'd say I'm one of the lucky ones. Good luck to all of you still farming!

only for the past few days ive ran this about 8 times now on my recently dinged 70 ret paladin. i have under 8k hp (like 7.8k or somthing) and the oathkeeper for a wep. i can efficiently run this place in ~25min if i only do dead side. no luck with mount yet but the point is, dont really even need good gear, just some OP talents or smarts not to pull to much at a time. (AoEs and instant heals dont hurt either xD )
if i get this mount, im fairly certain i will just run around the main citys for like an hour waiting to brag to someone...one can dream...

I got mine today, I've been soloing it 11/50/0 in about 18 minutes time - just don't give up. I'm one of the many that have been farming non-stop since Vanilla WoW and haven't gotten lucky until now. 34 runs in total for me post-3.0.2.
Also was lucky enough to score the sword, I guess it's a new good luck charm. Good luck!

This is exciting news for anyone who has their heart set on this mount. Instead of going on thousands of runs just to see a decent drop chance (about a 63% chance of seeing the mount after 1000 runs on the old drop rate) you can now have a fairly decent shot of getting this after only a few runs. Here is a graph of what the odds of the mount dropping after X runs are.
http://img401.imageshack.us/img401/15/baronmountgraphic4.jpg
As you can see, at about 70 runs we hit better then even odds of the mount dropping. If you doing 15 minute runs (hard, but not impossible) you can expect to see this mount in a few weeks of grinding. Still a grind to be sure, but not nearly as horrific as before.
EDIT: To clarify: after 70 runs, you have an even chance of seeing the mount drop
overall
. This does not mean that after 100 runs the mount will magically appear every time like magic. It means that in a group of 1000 people, if they all do 70 runs, the mount will have droped for about 500 of them.

I have killed the Baron many times before this change and never saw it drop, but once I saw this post I started some other attempts and got it after my 4th kill that day, finally! :D Too bad it went from a legendary to a common mount though :(
Farming Baron has been very easy as Hunter since 3.0.2. I seem to get less feign death resists (might be just luck), deterrence is a life safer and all the small adds after ramstein are now very easy (two ticks of volley each).
> Click for route <
At 2 you shouldn't use your pet to prevent mindcontrol and at 3 you should pull the pack in front of the boss next to the stairs and kill them. Good luck and have fun!

I've posted a few times in this thread, and am happy to report that after 3620 failures, the 3621st attempt was full of win.
Improved drop rate haters be damned, I'm happy that I finally got it.
Interestingly, it did take the place of one of the three 'regular' drop mechanics, so seemingly the server calculation for the loot table now only processes once in this regard.

I've managed to push it down to about 12.5 minute runs. The hardest part is skipping the aggro pulls from patrols/side ghouls. My usual strat is run to Baronness, Nerubenkan, Malek, and that nets me usually in under 6~7 minutes. The longest part is clearing the aboms, ramstein, 5 death guards + the baron himself. As a ret pally 99% of it is a joke at best. About 30~40 runs in, still no mount. I could probably cut a bit of time off if I didn't kill the magistrate, but its free gold so I might as well.. :S.
Edit: 55~ runs later, and its mine.

Every time you kill the boss there is a 1% chance that it will drop on that particular try. It doesn't matter if it's your first run, your 4th run (how many it took me to get), or your 900000000000000000th try. However it is also easy to calculate the chance of seeing at least 1 in a certain number of try's. The chance of not seeing one on any given run is 99%. So the chance of not seeing one in 3 runs is .99*.99*.99 = 97%. So the chance of seeing at least 1 in 3 run is about 3%. Extrapolate that out to 100 try's (1-.99^100) and you find after a hundred runs and you have about a 63.4% chance of seeing it at least once.

They key to this grind is to never give up. No matter how many times you run it, no matter how many times you think you have failed... you have the same 1% chance to see it on every run.
My order of killing the bosses was Baroness, Spider, Pallid. Going through the rat cage between the two. As a T6 shadowpriest I was able to complete the runs in just under 20 mins on most runs. 18mins was my record while not looting anything.
I made over 3,000g in raw gold doing this farm, probably 200 or so BoE greens, maybe 50 BoE blues, and 3 world epics. Not to mention the 300 stacks or so of runecloth I picked up along the way.
Never saw the sword in all of my runs.
Good luck to all of you guys out there farming it and have went past the normal 40-60 runs alot of people are seeing it in. it will drop for you, just give it time.

I was about to give up until I came here and read all the comments. And it encouraged me anew, thanks for the inspiring comments everyone. I have about 40+ runs under my belt since 3.0 and countless before, never once saw the mount. However, I did get a runesword yesterday. Getting ready to buckle down for another night of farming.
As a Sunwell geared hunter, I can make the runs in about 13-15 minutes. That's with the ability to feign off excess trash mobs, etc. Also, I don't bother looting.
Here's a tip for those that either don't have very good AoE abilities against the undead zerg after Ramstein or who just want to shave more time off of their runs:
As Ramstein spawns, run through him and the open door of the Slaughterhouse and engage him inside before the door closes. But be prepared, the second Ramstein dies, the team of undead guards spawn and will engage you. Once the last of them dies, the second door to Baron will open, saving you the trouble of killing the zerg and waiting for the gates to open manually.

Drop rate has been raised as of 3.0.2. It is now a 1% drop chance.

A lot of people think this is significant. I've run it over 50 times after 3.0.2 came out, no mount so far and I ran it well over 150 times pre patch with similar results (I kinda lost count after a while).
But then I thought about this for a bit 1% essentially means you pick a number from 1-100 (I chose 73) and do roll a bunch of times to see how many times that number comes up. Interestingly for me exactly 99 times. As you might imagine it could take you quite a bit longer or shorter depending on a complex scientific theory called pot luck.
Before it was 1 in 5000 - you could do a similar real world rest and /roll 1-5000 - pick a random number (like 493 or something) and see how many times that comes up.
From what I understand about WoW loot is determined and rolled by the server at the mobs death - for security reasons (if you don't know what I mean - read up on showeq/winseq).
Best of luck - happy hunting :)

Prince Kael'thas is also in Tempest Keep as well as in Magister's Terrace. Nothing wrong with that.
I do not think it is likely that they will remove Rivendare: There are quests and entire dialogues connected to him being in Stratholme. And it does not hurt to let him be there and give people a reason to run an old dungeon.

Im a druid, and im on my 12rd run. Nothing dropped yet. I do the run in 15-20min, depending if i do something wrong.
A notice is that there is a bug, if you clear the pacts before ramstein to fast. The gates will not open.
Ive done this a few times, where i clear everything in two pulls, after that it bugs. Write a GM if that happends and he can teleport you out, or you can run if you want :
So take your time there. GL hunting!

This is a rough guide on how I did it on my Ret Pally (1850ap) for 15-20 mins each run with looting all the mobs. This guide will begin at the second gate when the baron shouts the warning and the countdown starts
1. I go for Nerub'enkan 1st, which you can get without aggroing anything. Hug the left wall, when you reach the 1st 3 ghouls under the dead tree, there will be enough space to cross the road diagonally, passing the necromancers on the right w/out agro anything. U only need to be mindful of the patrolling gargoyles. There are 3 in that patrols this area. Once u reach the right wall, go all the way till almost the rat hole, there's a tree before it and u cross the road again when u reach that tree. Mind the spider that is on the left side but easy to dodge. Once u done nerub'enkan, retrace yer steps.
2. Now ur back to the starting point. To reach the Baroness, If u face north toward the Baroness' ziggurat, there are 3 ghouls on your immediate right. Just after the ghouls there's a wall. When the banshee and the 2 spiders in the middle of the road walk in the driection AWAY from the wall, time your run so it doesnt coincide with a gargoyle arriving (very easy). So, u manage to hug the right wall, but this is not a safe spot yet. Gargoyles still patrols around here. How to avoid this? Between the ziggurat and the wall, there are 2 grps of mobs (2 ghouls and a few necros). Right when u reach the end of the wall, STEP ONCE nearer to the 2 ghouls (so yer off the road), while still hugging the wall. From here u can stop, and wait to run straight to the ziggurat. Be careful of that one pesky spider that sometimes wander near the stairs. Time your run with the gargoyles and him in mind.
3, Now, if u stand atop Baroness' ziggurat, u can see a pack of crates. Notice there is a gap between a single box and the 2 boxes to the right of it? Thats yer non-agro line. Jump over them boxes, and run straight to the wall (keeping as far away from the 3 ghouls + spider there). Hug the wall till you reach the tunnel. Be careful especially on the spider. Sometimes I stil get aggro when that spider is facing the wall.
4. At the end o the tunnel, there's a single ghoul, pull him with to the pack of 2 ghouls not further down. Kill em in that corner. From here if u can time it right, u dont need to aggro the small pack of necros on the right wall (not so easy). But sometimes the spider is pesky (wont turn away from that area) so u might be better off killing the necros. And voila, Malekki the Pallid.
5. From Maleki's ziggurat, u dont need to agro the necros on the right also. Just walk straight and hug the right wall after u r confident of avoiding those necros. Pull the 3 ghouls into the area of anthr 3 ghouls, all along the right wall, and dps them there in that corner where the 2nd pack of 3 ghouls are. And from here u can run straight to the abominations w/out any problem. Then the rest is easy, u guys know how to do it better than i do.
Thats how i do it on a class w/out stealth. Hope u can get it! I got mine after 161 runs :)

I've done the solo run numerous times so I picked up a few things that might help my fellow rogues. My quickest run to date is between 11 and 12 minutes wearing mostly BT epics.
1. If its stunnable you should stun it. Although evisc may do more damage for your combo points you'll end up taking less damage by stunning all the mobs you can. You'll spend less time eating and end up with faster runs overall. This goes especially for Ramstein and his evil knockback stun. 5 Seconds of undodgable hits for 1k+ killed me more than anything else in the instance.
2. Use wounding poison! Not only is wounding actually more dps than instant poison right now it gives you your Savage Combat debuff. Deadly poison simply doesnt have enough time to tick and make great use of its damage potential.
3. Save Cooldowns for Nerub'enkan. This guy annoyed me to no end. Every time he webbed me and walked 10 yards away to shoot me wth insects I died a little inside. To counter this I would burn him as quickly as possible after my opening garrote with AR/BF/SnD/Zerking (trolls ftw) up and pop Killing Spree when he tries to kite me the first time. He usually ended up near death by the end of spree and took just a handful of sinister strikes to finish.
4. Dont rush. It's better to simply run unstealthed past mobs much of the time but at others its simply impossible. Don't push your luck and just stealth by them. It's better than standing there and not moving but it is MUCH better than getting 7 mobs on you in the middle of the street and dying.
5. Avoid the trap at all costs. The rat trap is not fun for a class with no AoE. Not only does it take a long time to clear but it takes a toll on your health. To recover from the hits you took youll have to eat and use up another 20 seconds. We have 2 ways to avoid it however! It is a common tactic to sprint past the closing gates and vanish on the other side. However it is much less known that you can stealth into the trap, hide in the nook on the side, and not agro the bugs at all. After 10 seconds or so the gates open and you can stealth out pest free.
6. Finally, don't give up! With the new drop rate this is a much easier grind and eventually your mount WILL drop.
Keep at it Baron Slayers and happy hunting.

It appears that with 3.0 the droprate has been significantly increased. From 1 in 5000 to about 1 in 100.
This, imo, has lowered the overall effect of the Deathcharger as its far more common now.
Kind of a kick in the shins for those (like myself) who spent many, many months trying to get it and still never dropped.
Its lost that 'Wow' factor.
Oh well, one can only hope that another rare item comes along that can give that wow factor.

Hello everyone here trying to farm Deathcharger. I am personally at 50 runs post 3.0.2 (I'd say at least 100 pre 3.0.2, never counted). Here is what I do and you can use it as a guide if you are a hunter wanting to try and get the mount. Runs are done in PvP gear for more stamina running from ziggurat to ziggurat. Also, I am an enchanter which is really nice AHing the mats you get from DEing.
I am an Orc Hunter and what I do is go in the back door (obviously), dismiss my pet, and run straight to Baroness (don't call your pet for the fight) just DPS her down. Than I pop a swiftness potion and run to the spider boss and feign death, call my pet and DPS him down than I dismiss my pet for the run to the mage. If you are fast enough going through the gate where all the insects pop out you can get by before the gate closes you in. Feign death next to the mage and DPS him down. Pop another swiftness potion and run to the Slaughter House. You can kill the Magistrate Barthilas if you so choose. I kill all the abominations and when Ramstein comes out just DPS down Ramstein. His stun can make the fight annoying at times, easy to get though. The massive army of non elite undead can just be taken out in a couple volleys now that it is an actual AoE. Then when the final 5 elite undead come out I misdirect my pet and send him in and volley/explosive trap them down.
Than it's time for the main character of the show: Baron Rivendare. He is very easy for a hunter, just send your pet in and have him tank, set out an explosive trap for when he summons the 6 adds (volley or the Stratholme holy water works too) you want to kill them asap because he will sacrifice them and he will gain life back. Other than that, it is basically a tank 'n spank. Good luck getting your very own Deathcharger. :)

Here's another pro tip for people farming this. When Ramstein comes out the door you can simply charge through it while it's open. The door will close but you'll be inside. Kill him and the five blackguards will spawn. If you need to eat/drink after Ramstein pull him to the Baron side door (which is closed until you kill the Blackguards). This method saves killing the millions of skeletons, but more importantly it lets you skip the long wait for the blackguards to come out.
EDIT: note that the door will remain closed because you didn't kill the skeletons. To leave you can hearth, invite a friend, make them leader and /logout (when you come back in you will be at the service entrance in a new instance), or the classic ghetto hearth.

Just dropped for me today! Two things were different this time:
1) I pasted the item link from wowhead and linked it in party chat as my friend arrived.
2) We killed him really fast. About 8 seconds. Dropped our first Strat run in 3 days.

Hunters and Rogues: Best tips for quick run.
Both hunters and rogues have high dps and a drop aggro ability. For running this, enter service entrance and just run (potions help a lot). When you get to a ziggaraut, feign death or vanish to drop all aggro'ed mobs. Rogues sometimes have trouble if they pick up a few of the stealth detectors near a ziggaraut, but the ones that followed for a while will be running out of aggro range before it activates. Hunters, dismiss your pet and just call him for the bosses, except baroness, of course. I have a 61 rogue now, and I use this tactic when running with my 70 hunter friend. It hardly ever fails.
Mages:
I have run this with a 70 mage before. She bubbled, blinked, and ran to ziggaraut. Once there, she AoE'd the entire group following her. Then, she just anhillated the bosses and waited for her cooldowns. Kind of unorthodox, but effective.
I have seen the mount drop on Exodar-US server. I then began to hate myself for getting 3 others that wanted a run. NEED? Come on. Make sure if you are running as a group that people are rolling Greed.

Dropped finally after a 10min run with my GF.
First time after the 1 in 100 drop, but did over 1000 pre drop buff.
You can skip alot of the mobs there.
And with SoW or SoL up, you can pull the whole abomination room at once easilly.
Just keep at it.
Now all I need is the Runeblade...

This rumor is not true, as of November 29, 2008. It dropped for me on the first of an assumed 10 runs for the evening.
The Naxxramas Mount however, is still unconfirmed, to my knowledge.

About 40+ runs in now, still no mount.
Farming as an 80 Unholy Death Knight (
https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/talent=jf0GqcZZfM0Itfox0q0fout
) in mostly heroic/5 man blues and epics. That's the same spec I used for leveling and I find it clears Strat amazingly. I skip literally ever trash pull with some careful effort, only stopping to kill the three ziggaraut bosses. I also pull every abom with a combination of Death Coil and Death Grip and AOE (Death and Decay / Unholy Blight / Pestilence) then unleash Army of the Dead. I have my runs down to about 10-15 minutes from gate to Baron death.
My friends keep asking while I'm still going after 40+ runs and no mount, and my answer is that it'd be stupid to quit now. =P
Good luck, happy farming!
Edit: 47 runs and it dropped, I almost hyperventilated. =P Just kidding, but I was excited.

412 runs pre-patch, no dice. 110 runs post-patch and it dropped! During my years-long quest for the mount I received the Runeblade, a few BoE Epics and an unbelieveable amount of BoE blues. Towards the end I stopped looting entirely. The amount of gold I looted since the patch (doing almost entirely Baron runs) was nearly 1,000 gold. The gold I made from vendoring trash was nearly 2,000 and the gold I earned from AH'ing the enchanting materials I got from DE'ing everything is over 5,000g. Happy to finally have it after 522 runs.

This is pretty easy to solo at >70. Even in my terrible gear I had no troubles killing any of the bosses as a protection warrior. Your biggest worry is definitely the gargoyles and the eyes. What happens in this instance is that all the mobs have huge social aggro radiuses so if you accidentally grab one creature chances are it'll bring like 10 others with it. If you can't kill them fast enough it snowballs and you end up dead.
ALSO, I don't know if it's just me but if you die and try to complete the run you'll get stuck in slaughter square after all the aboms are dead. Rammstein never shows up. It's a bug with the instance. If you die just reset.
Here's a video of me running this. It's pretty slow but oh well:
Clicky!

Its defiantly rare.. 65 runs and nothing. I want it for my druid.
Easy solo for a lvl 80 feral druid with mostly blues and some epics.
Atlasloot says its a 0.10 drop rate. not 1% like the sword.

If you're a rogue you can do 15 minute baron runs to farm this mounts.
The most time consuming things are:
Abominations in front of the Slaughterhouse
---
Enter via the service entrance and pass the two groups of skeletons on the left side (you can do this even without stealth on level 80), get through the gates and walk straight forward to the Baroness.
Stealth up to her if you have to, but normally you can avoid aggro now that you're 80.
Kill the Baroness (she doesn't hit hard and her spells usually miss you), kill all the acolytes. Takes under a minute.
Continue your way to either the spider or the mage boss, doesn't really matter.
Use stealth if needed, but beware the stealth-detecting ghouls and the patrolling gargoyles.
Kill the second boss, continue to the third.
You'll most likely pass the trap with the bugs in it. Wait for all bugs to surround you, then use Fan of Knives to get rid of them.
Kill the third boss, make your way to the Slaughterhouse via stealth or without if you are experienced enough (kill the Magister on your way if you want some extra blues).
Now, take your time to kill all the abominations and use Fan of Knives to kill the Bile Slimes coming out of the Bile Spewers after killing them.
Kill the last abomination in front of the Slaughterhouses entrance and hop into it as soon as the door opens.
Kill Ramstein and be prepared for the 5 Blackguards which will instantly spawn (don't bother with the hordes of skeletons, they won't aggro since you're inside)
Clear the Blackguards
Eat if needed, engange the Baron. Use Fan of Knives should he spawn his minions.
Loot, hope for mount. Rinse and repeat.

I'm just letting you guys now that it still drops. Got it today just about 5 mins ago. Took "only" 113 kills. I wish whoever hunts it, good luck!
Few pointers:
-Didnt kill swarm of skellies but afterwards. I killed Ramstein inside the barons house and the elite skellies right after.
-You can skip the plague insects by jumping before the gate and jumping just before the second gate. The insects follow you, but they dont aggro any mobs. This makes it a little bit faster.
Class: Paladin/retribution

Dropped on my
Second Run
, soloed as a level 80 Destro Warlock in mostly 80/late 70s blues and few greens.
Some Tips:
If any Warlocks are going to attempt this, I highly suggest you got Destruction for an extra powerful punch that will kill most mobs in 2-3 Hits.
I only used my Voidwalker on two bosses, Rammstein and Baron.
Be sure to bring plenty of Water and Food, I unfortunatley didn't have food on me so most of the run I was at ~4000 out of 13,000 Health.
Edit: Be sure to bring your Argent Dawn Commission along if you want to raise rep. (For the Achievement, obviously.)

75 Warrior tank, random quest greens and blues fron Northrend with Felsteel Helm and Moroe's Pocket Watch.
Got the mount after dozens of runs with a friend.
Soloing the dungeon as a protection warrior is easy. Simply keep using devastate, revenge, and shield slam. Use Thunderclap when absolutely necessary. For the Spider boss, hold up at one of the corners near the door so that when he nets you, he'll run out of LoS, run back to you, run back out of LoS, and will continue this until he dies. For the Banshee, make sure that all of your friends are out of the LoS for the banshee; if you get an LoS error when trying to attack, you're good. For a 75 warrior, I took maybe 2 hits MAX from the banshee, and for around 500-600 damage each (lol 14k unbuffed). The Frost boss is cakewalk since he's even weaker.
The Abominations are nothing for a prot warrior with heals. Pull the whole area, and Thunderclap/Shockwave like crazy. Without a healer, simply do 1v1. It's fast and easy. Ramstein can be annoying since he CAN stun you, but it's not common. For the undead zerg, simply round em all up and shockwave once.
As for baron, just charge in, devastate, revenge, shield slam, repeat. For the skeletons, just thunderclap once and focus on Baron. He's got a ton of hp, but he hits weaker than ramstein.
Prot warriors are easy mode, so I don't need to say how EXACTLY to fight, since it's child's play and fun. If you are farming rep, try to worm your way through the mobs and fight only the bosses and abominations. It's possible to finish baron runs in under 12 minutes as a prot warrior with my level of gear.
As a great muppet once said, "Do, or do not. There is no try."

Been grinding for around a week or so now, up to 232 runs and no mount as of yet - had a runeblade a while back. As a rogue, runs take me around 10-12 minutes, longest bit is the abominations before Ramstein.
Best of luck to everyone else that is grinding for the mount, hoping that mine will drop sometime soon..

If your chance of flipping a coin and getting heads is 1 in 2, does that mean that flipping a coin twice guarantees it'll come up heads? Of course not.
Think of the Baron's mount as 1 side of a 100-sided coin.

As a tauren player since WoW's release I have dreamed of owning this mount because of the sheer rarity of a cow riding one of the skeletal mounts. Sadly, solo farming this was a challenge, even at 70, as a moonkin and it was hard to gather a consistent group of friends to aid me.
At level 74 I took a break from questing and ended up finding my way to EPL. I spent about a week living in Stratholme and not being a hardcore player I would log in for an hour or two every night and stealth run the instance 3-5 times. After my third run tonight I got it!
This accomplishment is made a little less epic by the mount restrictions for tauren being lifted in the upcoming patch and the droprate of this mount being boosted with the xpac, but oh well! It's mine and I am one happy little cowgirl!

I just thought I would share some of my tips/findings with trying to get this mount.
For starters:
Warrior, Human, level 74 (now 75)
Fury build, Titan's Grip dual 2h weapons
Average quest level greens and blues
Okay, so I've done this run about 30 times so far with no luck. Understandable with a 1 in 100 drop rate. But I do have some suggestions to make it go a little faster - at least for someone with relatively high health.
I'm not going to bore you with the "go in and stick to the left" stuff. This is simply dealing with the final abominations and the Baron.
Kill the abominations as fast as you can (for speed of runs). I find simply making sure the last one I kill is the one on the far, far left. A bile spewer if I recall. I had Ramstein bug out once. Since using this method it has not happened after 25 or so runs.
Eat/heal on the SECOND last abomination as you will need all the health you can get.
When you fight the last one, move to the door where Ramstein comes out.
When the last one dies, rush in and take on Ramstein INSIDE the Baron's area (not actually where the Baron is, but where Ramstein spawns). The door will close with you inside.
After Ramstein dies, the 5 elites will spawn. Kill them (I use my Retaliation as a warrior
Kill the Baron. I save my Whirlwinds for the skeleton adds.
By rushing Ramstein before he leaves his spawn point you do NOT have to fight all the non-elite undead. Which, personally, I found to be the hardest part of the whole run. They spawn, but with the door closed they cannot get to you. Be aware they do not despawn after killing the Baron, so if you have to go back out (which I rarely do) you will have to fight them.

To all the Tauren players out there i just wanted to quote an upcoming change to mounts from the Test realm patch notes.
"Racial restrictions on mounts have now been lifted. Night elves on mechanostriders? Tauren on raptors? You’re not seeing things."
评论来自
Hellsbelle
Tauren have been able to use raptors for a very long time. I guess now they can ride this mount and other undead horse, although judging by how DK Tauren look on the Acherus Charger, unless you wanna look totally ridiculous, stick to your Kodo/Wolf/Raptor. It's like Vanessa Feltz riding a shetland pony.

As a Ret Paladin its rather easy to, at the abomination room, pull them all using seal of wisdom and succesfully keep yourself and your mana at 90% while tanking them at the door, it takes less than a minute to kill them, and its rather satisfying.

For those who think running it 100 times gets you the mount, that's not how probability works.
As an example, a friend of mine (who plays a tauren hunter) and I (troll shaman) have been running this repeatedly off and on since we hit 70. We are over 1000 runs now, probably 80% of those together, and neither of us has seen the horse drop.
Happy Hunting.

This mount is still pretty hard to get but the drop rate was moved up in 3.0.2. Since my main is a tauren it is very hard to get mounts and this is the only undead looking horse one we can get so i believe it should only go to taurens.Rep has no effect on the drop rate also. Happy Farming.

For a level 80 Marksmanship hunter, I find this to be a very easy run. Kill a boss, Volley on the cultist in the middle, rinse and repeat.
Volley's range is just big enough to hit all the cultists and likely kill them in one cast, so that speeds things up a lot.
Same deal with all the abominations, just aggro a bunch and AoE them down. I run into the... the uh... the place where Ramstein spawns *can't remember its name*, kill him, then AoE the blackguards, kill Baron, hope for the mount to drop, get naked and have all the little skellies kill me.
Then I just reset the instance outside as a ghost, and start all over again. :D

as a blood DK (lvl 80) this is cake, even if you happen to run into patrols, you just death strike when ready and other abilities to keep your hp up... I do: baroness, anub, malki, take the "boss" in the corner as well. There is a limit to how fast you can do this. I cleared all the aboms and ramstein and the zerg of mobs coming after and had to wait a min or 2 before the guards came out, so, there is a limit to how fast this can go after you get to the aboms at least. I prefer to do it in 20'ish min. including running back out to reset as army of the dead has 20 min. CD, using this on baron brings him down within 5 sec. I had 2 min. CD on my army last run, so I tried without it, it took long as his mobs heal him when they are killed by his aoe, so.. just wait for your army of the dead CD and then use it.. its cake.
EDIT: last run of the evening, 13 min. I must have done at least 100 by now or very close to it and still no mount:(

As lvl 80 balance druid its a very easy solo-speedrun. Mobs' agro range is very small, no stealth is required. You only kill zigurrat bosses, and at the end abos, skellys, ramstein etc. and Baron. The Baron fight itself is like 20-30 seconds. My current record for the whole run is 13mins, but I was wasting a lot of time with stealthing. Don't stealth, if you still agro, pop barkskin, hurricane, and everything dies around you. I'm trying to make my time better, hopefully I get the mount someday ^^
Good luck to all mount-farmers! :)

If you're like me and hate farming for specific items, try to use other factors to motivate you.
Don't expect it to drop! You can't be disappointed if you have no expectations! Instead I suggest the following:
1. If you aren't already, aim for Argent Dawn rep. You get I believe over 500 rep per run roughly. If you use the Argent Dawn Trinket it goes up to over 1200 with scourgestones. Put the Argent Dawn rep bar above your experience bar and it gives you something tangible to work at.
2. Use this as a money making venture. This is an easy way to make gold. Depending on your server, shards can be a gold mind (if not, vendoring is still on average 30g per run). Some items to keep an eye out for:
- BOE Set pieces: You get a lot of gloves and belts doing this
- Runecloth: At least 3 stacks per run on average
- Essence of Undeath: Not a regular drop but if you farm for a while you may end up with a few. These sell well on some servers.
- Bone Fragments / Crypt Fiend Parts: You'll get a lot of these, they sell very well. Put them in stacks of 30 on the AH to maximise profit.
3. Related to money making venture, you end up looting a decent about of gold from mobs. You can motivate yourself to working towards the gold looting achievements. Sort of a last resort though as those are really slow.
4. Instead of selling Runecloth, you can use them to work your reputations with your cities. This is really useful if you're going for the Mount achievements. You will get thousands of runecloth doing these runs.
---
Some random things you might want to remember before heading in...
1. Keep your bags clear. With just my hearthstone in the inventory, I could do 4 runs before having to head back to LHC to clear stuff.
2. Some items are just better to throw away to save you from making trips to vendor stuff. On many servers Ichors of Undeath are trash and should just be destroyed. Things like Nightcrawlers, Food, Water and Spider parts (the grey stuff) don't vendor for more than a couple silver and are more effective to destroy than to take up inventory space.
3. Making fast runs makes this less painful. A lot of comments here talk about their quick runs. I found however that whenever I tried to make a really quick run, I end up making mistakes and pulling mobs which slowed me down, making the run longer. Make a route, get used to it but don't try to rush too much. Accidents via rushing defeat the whole purpose.
Good luck to everyone that tries, this is definitely within reach with the 1% drop rate. I got mine after 49 runs making over 3000g in the process.

Ok I am really curious. Is the drop rate really 1%? ignoring all of my prepatch runs it took me 54 runs. Including the time at 70 (at 80 the runs were taking only about 10min so :P) I spent nearly 30 hours non stop grinding before my mount droped (ZOMG it actually dropped! :P funny thing is I was just thinking "hmm got time for 1 more run before I gotta go to work") and yet I go to Dalaran and bamn bunch of dks with the mount and a ton of other people. So yea outta curiousity I was asking everone with it and the most anyone needed was 40 runs it seems. Average around 5-10.... Added to this all these posts on wowhead about first runs... I really wish that this mount only dropped from exalted with Argent Dawn. That way you know people worked for it.. I mean my char I got it on is exalted and not from doing the qs, just from grinding that instance. I couldnt count how many runs I did before the patch.. :P and yea i know this post is long but meh it is newyears and I am a tad drunk so on a sidenote HAPPY NEWYEARS! and another side note to those people still grinding and working for it keep going it will drop and it is soooo worth it! this my 70th mount finally satisfied me :D
*edit*
Btw Grats Bloodi you lucky son of a lucky leprechaun :P Reason why I up post you is (so long as you are telling the truth) you all pressed greed. That is something that I (having spent a grand total of easily over 3 days of my life non stop grinding for that mount) would not have been able to do.... In the end I actually refused to go there with friends because I knew that I would have ML on and I would take it. I told those that wanted help getting through the instance (at different levels, belive me I have my experience in there) that I will take them once I have it. Untill then I couldnt take anyone else because I had gone enough times and I could easily solo it... Damn I hate that instance, I love it but damn do I hate it......

I got my mount today after about 20 or 30 runs. At 80, I got the runs down to about 7 minutes as a protection warrior. My path was as follows:
1) Spider boss first, no need to kill anything. Zag right past the casters, then back left between the ghost and the spider. Tuck into the corner so when he roots you he doesn't have anywhere to stand and hit you from range.
2) Baroness next. go in past the ghouls on the right, then charge her, avoiding any gargoyle pats.
3) Frost mage third. I take out him and the adds on his steps at the same time to save time. Target him, use thunderclap and shockwave every time they are up and everything dies fast.
4) Straight into the Patchwork Horrors in the Gauntlet. I gather them all up with demoralizing shout and thunderclap then AoE them down. This is a good time to use
Enraged Regeneration
.
5) As soon as the last Horror dies, Ramstein will come out. Don't let him. Go inside and fight there. When he dies, the black guards spawn instantly and you save the minute you would have had to wait for them.
6) When they are dead, go kill the baron. Either Thunderclap or Shockwave will kill the adds in one shot.
Hints:
1) Trash in the ziggurats -- thunderclap and shockwave was enough to kill the entire group. Gather them up and AoE down quick.
2) Pats are the only thing that will slow you down. Learn where they run and step aside if they are coming at you. At 80, their aggro radius is tiny.

finally dropped for me, been farming it for more than a week now .. wuhu! around 200 runs for it at least... so for those ppl cheering... 1% isn't really alot, but alot more that 0.002%
anyway, on the abom reset thingie... it just happened be4 the run I did where the mount dropped and about a hand full of other times, sometimes they only respawn a few of them and ramstein came out anyway, but sometimes, like in your case he doesn't and its very irritating since (if you aren't a mage or death knight) you have to heartstone to do this as the gate behind you is locked and you aare stuck there.

132 runs and it drops. Was my 4'th day of grinding, path used Spider, Baroness, Mage, Magister, Baron. Overall gold made from selling blues from bosses 2702g. Time spent per run 5-6 minutes. When it says that you did too many instances recently simply return to town and sell your stuff, by the time you are back you can enter again.

just dropped (yesterday) for me after 41 runs (since the 3.0 patch)
looks great, and its handy that achievements track Dungeon boss kills so you know how many times you've been there.

Got my mount today after farming him for about 3 days. Killed him a total of 45 times before it finally dropped.
Earned about 1000g and got all the way from neutral to exalted with the Argent Dawn by turning in rep items.

Today, my raid leader, a level 80 holy pally was talking in gchat about farming the mount for like six months and finally giving up after a few hundred runs, I a little lvl 80 holy priest decked out in naxx epics decided to help my raid leader farm a bit, and while waiting for her to finish her run, I decided to do a quick one of my own. I never wanted to farm this mount because I knew how low the drop rate was, and before Wotlk, I had no valiable AoE. The run took about 20 minutes because I didnt know the way very well (fail, I know) and I did die once by pulling too many spiders who silenced me and aggroed their banshee friends. So I get to rivendare and kill him with a few smite crits and bam, there drops the mount after my second time ever being in strat (first was when I was lvl 58 about what, 2 years ago?)... wewt.
Needless to say that my guildie was furious for a while, but we laughed it off in vent.
Point is: Dont be afraid to give it a shot, all classes have aoe now, and its really easy to skip a majority of the instance and just kill the bosses... plus, it only takes like 15 minutes per run! So give it a shot, I did, and I got a Mount!

Just finally got this after farming it for a long time, but mainly on one character when the drop rate was increased.
I did it about 250+ times on a couple characters spread throughout my account, but 33 on my main paladin when the drop rate was increased. It's so easy, every class at 80 can do it. L2mouseturn when doing this, it'll help so much and you can seriously avoid 100% of the trash mobs except for the zigs.
Out of the 33 runs, I made roughly 1.2k gold. I didn't DE the greens, or the blues. I just vendored every little thing I got during my 'breaks', and it added up. Just kill the 3 zig bosses + the mobs inside, loot only greens/blues/epics/money, and go straight to baron. It took me about 10 minutes to get to baron and kill him.
Don't give up. The drop rate was increased, so don't get your hopes down. Just remember in the long run it'll be worth it.

As a level 80 Protection Warrior in not the best gear (greens, mostly blues, and epic pants and boots) this place is so simple to solo. My best run is 18 mins (with the agroing adds during spider boss). I can kill the spider and all mobs in zig with 42mins remaining, banshee and mobs with 40 mins remaining, and caster dude and zig with 37 mins remaining. The longest part is killing all the abominations before him. Tip: Kill about two or three at a time and when you have one or two abominations remaining, head to door and kill them, boss walks out and you run in. Kill the boss, then the five skeletons and kill Rivendare. I have no mount yet but I have gotten to honored with Argent Dawn and and half way to exalted with Exodar with all the Runecloth I have been gotten.

Soo.. started grinding this mount, I am on my 33 run. While running pass a guy who also were travelling towards Strat, I asked him how many runs he had, God I felt sorry for him, After the dropprate changed to 1% He had been going for exactly 253 runs.. I mean... Not getting the mount at this state of runs.. Anyone wanna count the likleyness not for it to dropp? You do the math.
Epic dropp from baron, Hand of Edward the Odd, no mount. 45 runs.
Edit: Another Epicdropp from Baron, (not mount) Sash of Mercy at 60 runs.
Edit: 78 runs, no sign of it... Another to my collection of 50+
Edit: 119 attempts, still no mount, starting to get nightmares about baron's lootwindow.

Incredible luck tonight.
I had to drop out of a Sanctum Raid becasue of my latency. Depressed, I wandered into Plaguelands and decided to run for the mount.
I had run it ...mm I think like 8 or 9 times before trying to get the mount and had no luck.
Tonight, I also thought I had no luck as the Draconian Gauntlets were at the top of the loot list. I was moderately dissapointed, but not surprised. I saw a down-click arrow, and clicked it and like squeeked IRL. Deathcharger's Reins! <3
It's complete luck. This time though, I pushed into the doors of his cathedral as Ramstein was still comming out. Killed his royal guard when the doors closed, then went after him without fighting the stupid 1k hp trash.
Good luck everyone. ^_^

Got mine on my 61'st Baron-kill.
It was pretty odd, though. because Ramstein didn't spawn at first, instead all those abominations respawned for me, they kinda flickered up a bit and respawned, exactly after I killed them.
so I had to kill them again. it was worth it anyway, since I got my mount :)

My first solo Stratholme run, and it dropped. Easily done as an 80 Death Knight due to low aggro radii; just hugged the walls and kept an eye out for the Rockwing Gargoyles as they patrolled by.

when farming strat, i find the wait for the black guard sentries can add substantial time to the run. You can rush in when Rammstein comes out, and make it inside the doors so you don't have to wait. You'll dodge the mindless undead mob, but the downside is the black guards will spawn immediately upon rammstein's death, so you have to deal with them right after rammstein. Also, you will be charged by the mindless undead after you defeat baron and run back out of his slaughterhouse, and 1 of the elite ghouls will aggro as well. To make matters worse, if you wipe on the black guard sentries, when you run back in, there will be the mob of mindless undead in the abom square, and they have a HUGE aggro range and will bring 10-15 elite and magistrate barithas with them, if you try to re-enter. TLDR: run in to meet rammstein if you can reliably take him down and the black guards, but a wipe using this method will negate all time gained, and then some.

Mages, if you plan on farming this place, look at my current specc. I respecced *50g >_>* for farming yesterday, and I made the gold back within 25% of a full clear. The investment is WELL worth it. I've made over 300g, 600 Runecloth, an epic BoE *well a !@#$ing lv 58 stole it from me as i ran him, but it dropped regardless* and tons of other crap, in about 2 hours. very nice way to farm if you don't like proffs or grinding in the open where you can get ganked *if you are on a PVP realm*

I've got a question, I'm currently at my 137th run..
Do you need the Argent Dawn trinket equipped in order to get the mount? Or you have to kill the minibosses in a certain order?
I would like to know if I do anything wrong before making 200 runs.
I start at the service-gate, proceeding killing The Baroness, then I kill Malek, going forward killing Nerub'Enkan and at last kill Magistrate, proceeding to fatty's square... enter the slaughterhouse with Ramstein The Gorger, ... kill the Black Guards and then charge for Baron.
Hope it's the right way of doing it?
I know that I don't have to kill The Magistrate, (do beacuse of the money) but thanks for answering!
Currently at my 155 run... no mount yet

I just skip all loot until Baron, as a retadin I usually have Baron dead at 5-7 mins, rets are OP in strat :D
Currently on my 19th run... Runeblade dropped once for me so far...
I mean how awesome would it be to be a protector of all things Light while riding a fallen Charger oozing with dark energy.
I go Baroness>Maleki>Nerub, then, gather all the aboms up consecrate/holy wrath/divine storm. I run into the slaughterhouse when Ramstein appears, get him to 10% drop consecration/holy wrath/divine storm the guards, and run down to Baron and kill him in 15 seconds max. The most time consuming part of the whole trip is that damn hall with the plagued insects... the door wont open for 10 seconds after u kill them and it's just like you're tapping your foot waiting... lol

Running Stratholme for the mount can be tiresome, but keep at it & it will drop eventually.
Here are some suggestions that you may find helpful.
1.
Don't run with your bags full. Pick up the blues, pick up the greens, and pick up the runecloth. Even if you can't disenchant an item; you can vendor it for a good bit. Every 2 or 3 runs you should run back to Light's Hope Chapel and vendor / mail items to a bank alt or disenchanter.
2.
If you're a hunter, dismiss your pet. Those monsters can aggro you even at level 80. You can always run a little bit farther to a safe zone and just feign. If your pet is out, you pretty much have to kill them, and that takes extra time. I probably wouldn't advise this to a warlock though.
That being said I'm close to run 50, and I haven't seen the reigns drop yet... However I've made well over a thousand gold, and I'm sure that will eventually help somewhere. :) I've found well over 20 BoE blues and 1 world epic. It's not the best gold in WoW, but it's not the worst either.

I've managed to get my runs down to 6 minutes each, stealthing in cat form between ziggurats, unfortunately I keep getting caught by the 5 instances per hour rule that Blizzards got in motion.
To avoid this, make sure your runs take at a
minimum
12 minutes.
Edit: For those interested, by killing nothing but the bosses and trash that are needed to complete this run, you gain 373 rep at level 80. To get from Neutral 0/3000 to Exalted, you only need to do 113 runs.

As a prot war I have my runs down to about 8 mins (to boss kill), with 38 mins left on prisoner timer.
Just wondering how that stands up to most other non-stealth classes... I've only been doing a few runs here and there and have yet to see the mount drop.
Pro that they buffed the drop rate tho =D

I have to disagree with Triforceelf. You cant put it up like that. He is saying that you can expect to see this mount drop after a few weeks of farming. First of all, he isnt saying how many runs you have to, so if i do 1 run per day in 2 weeks i have the mount? He is basically saying that after some weeks of farming you are 100% sure to get the mount, and you cant put it up like that. 1% droprate might be great compared to the 1 in 5000 before the patch, but its still just 1% and thats still very low. For all i care you can do 50000 runs and you would still not be sure to get it. Let me put it this way, if the doctor tells you, that you have cancer, and got 1% chance to survive, would you feel lucky?
Im not saying this to disencourage anyone out there farming it right now, just wanted to point that out. Im currently farming this myself, and are on my 84th run, and still no drop. Happy farming :D

The day i got it.. was epic. That was before the patch so the drop rate was still very low. Went there with 2 guildies, one of them was on alt... that was my first run there btw. Obv.. mount dropped.. and alt rolls on it and gets it. I got *!@#ed cos he got Anzu day before on his alt aswell. Anyway... 4 hours later i went back and it dropped again.. this time it was mine:)
Yes.. 2 mounts in same day:)))
Love it... pre patch it was very prestige mount, but now everyone seems to have it.

I would like to encourage all people that still farming it,to keep on with their runs and remind them that it is a great way of making money also.I made about 500-600 gold in about 5 runs.I am enchanter so I disenchant the greenies that drop (Greater eternal essence and Illusion dusts sell high on my server) and selling loads of runecloth in AH (about 8g per stack).So besides a dull,boring run just to kill the last boss,is a very nice way to make money on free time.(I kill only whats necessary).
Good luck everyone including myself! :)

In my personal experience, I do not believe the abomination gauntlet is timed.
It is scripted to send an abomination towards a waypoint at the entrance of the event ever x seconds. If an abomination is set to the gate and finds no hostile targets he will patrol back an additional waypoint, one the opposite side of the entrance from which he approached, and if he still fails to find a hostile target, the gauntlet will reset. I presume this is intended to reset the encounter in the event of a wipe, within the time it takes to corpse run back.
I could be wrong here but this is how it's been for me. I first noticed this when I'd go in and aggro an entire side and aoe tank it, watch one of the abom's stroll up to the gate and then back out and have it reset briefly after.
You can sometimes bug the event by entering the ziggurat while the door is opening for Ramstein, becoming trapped inside.
This post is acting very weird for me, was meant as a reply to Cartographer's comment about not being able to solo it due to taking too long as a holy pally >

Right
, going to do some rumor-dispelling since people are still asking questions:
1)
Argent Dawn rep doesn't affect the mount's drop chance.
2)
You don't need to have your Argent Dawn commission to have it drop.
3)
The 45 minute timer has nothing to do with the drop chance.
4)
No matter how many bosses you kill it has the same drop chance. Kill em all, or only kill the base 4 you're required to kill (not including Baron himself).
5)
The drop chance was raised
from
roughly 1/5000
to
1/100 a few months ago, and there it remains.
6)
The Baron is still in Stratholme, along with bending the space time continuum and being 3 other places as well.
7)
The mount is still in the game.
8)
Yes, really, the mount IS STILL IN THE GAME. You're just unlucky or impatient.
9)
The abomination gauntlet can still bug out. If it does, you might have to restart the instance.
*
10)
Nobody cares that it dropped for you last night after X amount of runs. Please stop telling us.
11)
Also stop telling us that it
hasn't
dropped for you after X amount of runs. This is not useful information to any of us.
12)
As depressing as it is, your drop chance
NEVER INCREASES
. It will always be 1% unless its changed again. That means every time you kill Mr. Baron, there is a 1% chance it will drop. Pretend each run is your first, if you want to look at it that way.
Hopefully people will read this before asking "
Iz mount stil in gaem? I run 395 times and still no drop =[[[[[[
"
*
This bug will do one of a few things:
A)
Despawn all the aboms and leave the gate shut. In this case you will have to hearth or commit suicide somehow (not in real life, though you might feel like doing it).
B)
Despawn and respawn all of the aboms. This can happen multiple times in the same gauntlet, but most of the time you can eventually kill them all and get Rammstein out. However, sometimes Rammstein will not come out and the gate will remain shut. See point A.
C)
Despawn all of the remaining aboms (even if theres only one left, and you're fighting it) and respawn only a few of them. When this happens you can kill the few that respawn, but the gate will remain shut and Rammstein will not come out. See point A.
Very important note:
If you rush Rammstein into the Baron's Ziggurat, you have to deal with the Mindless Undead zerg afterward when you're exiting the instance (unless you just commit suicide).
MAKE - SURE - ALL - OF - THEM - ARE - DEAD
. If so much as a
single
one follows you back into the main instance, it will aggro everything within about 200 yards. Lots of the time some of them will disconnect from the pack and stand off to the side. I didn't know this until I realized I had one following me, figured I'd just kite it since it wouldn't make a difference, then once I was near the bug-trap I turned around and saw everything up to Maleki's Ziggurat running at me.
It was pretty awesome though, watching this incredible wave of undead descend upon me...

For aspiring Deathcharger Shamans:
In Patch 3.0.8, Glyph of Astral Recall cut the cooldown on the spell in half -- get yourself 6+ hours of cleared time, set your hearth to Lights Hope, and speed run the zone. If you do an 8 minute kill, Astral Recall and ride (on a 100% mount) back to the zone, you can continuously do the zone without running into the instance creation cap. 4.5 or so runs an hour is possible, giving you a pretty good shot at getting the mount within 6-10 hours.
Hope this helps!

Running this is great when you've finished dailies and what not and there is not much else to do for the day. Being that all I really need to run is H. Naxx, this is a great time waster. :) I do a few a day and see what happens. In a way it is actually nice that the drop rate has been increased as it gives people motivation to try who wouldn't have pre patch. Good luck to all.

Farming this mount is a pain in the back side.
Solo by a 80 frost mage. 12k hp. Did it for 9 mins and 33 secs.
From the start head to the Baroness, after that head for the spider and last the frost mage. Pull everything in the room with the abominations, ice block until they are all right next to you use frost nova blink out pop your elemental and AoE with blizzard(tip: get improved blizzard :o) And last Rammstein and Rivendare are easy as pie. Gl to the farmers ^^

Today, January 25, 2009, I obtained my Deathcharger after 123 runs or so, 50 pre-patch and 70 post patch~ on my main, and 3 on my Death knight and i ended up getting it on my DK.
Over the course of doing it I had many people tell me "you wont get it, just quit" or I almost quit sometimes and other friends told me to keep going and there encouragement helped me get through it.
All in all, just remember to NOT listen to those saying you should quit trying, listen to those that say to keep going for encouragement. My best advice? Never, EVER give up.

A friend of mine got these on his first run with his mage, and then AGAIN on his 3rd run on his rogue. Took me about 105 runs to get it as a holy paladin, but they were well worth it. My advice to others farming this:
1) Skip lots of trash. Even as a paladin without stealth, a LOT of this trash can be avoided and doing so will dramatically cut down on the length of your runs. Don't gamble with the gargoyles and let them pass when you see them coming, and especially be careful to kill the eyes of naxxramas immediately when you see them shout. In an ideal run, the only trash you should kill is the ziggurat trash, the abominations before Rammstein, and the blackguard that spawns following his death. Even the 3 necromancers in front of Maleki the Pallid are completely skippable by hugging the right side his staircase leading up to him and then jumping off the staircase by either side after you're done killing the cultists inside.
2) If you aggro trash, kill it quickly. The brown colored spiders are by FAR the biggest threat to you, and should always be killed first if you aggro trash. Their webs cause a 6 second silence and root that they are quite capable of chaining, and as a caster this will severly hinder your time while you kill them.
3) Charge Rammstein once he comes out. When you finish off the last abomination run into the slaughterhouse and fight Rammstein inside it. Once he dies the blackguard will immediate spawn ontop of you for a quick kill allowing you to immediate fight the Baron without waiting for the hundreds of trash undead to spawn and die.
4) Once you've killed the baron, unequip your gear quickly and run outside to suicide on the undead zerg you skipped by getting inside the ziggurat before they spawned. This is much faster and safer than running back outside and risking aggroing mobs along the way out.
My fastest runs ended in me killing the baron with 38minutes left on his challenge, try and get close to this number to optimize your time with 5 runs an hour. Happy farming.

Wewr! Got mine a couple of hours ago after around 250 runs after the drop rate got buffed and around 1000 before that during TBC. Hard to give out anymore tips than the ones who have already been given out on the countless comments I've read for the past months (Thanks alot for that, by the way, they play'd a really big role on me not giving up on the farm. Really!) but the ones I found the most usefull while grinding this were:
a) Setting your HS to Light's Hope Chapel and going there every 5 runs or whenever you find suitable (depending on your bag space), that way you probably won't have any problems with instance-resets (it also made my gold go up loads, selling the blues that is, made around 15k gold during the 230 runs and I'm not an enchanter);
b) if you're rich enough and/or don't care about runecloth - don't bother looting anything other than blues, it makes you loose ALOT of time;
c) I tried the 2 most common routes, Spider/Maleki/Baroness and Baroness/Spider/Maleki, and the 2nd one proved to be faster in most cases, though I don't honestly think it matters much (also, if you're an engineer, rocket booting whenever they are up is a real time saver, even more on the rat trap. I had 3 pairs that I was constantly rotating).
d) When all abominations are down, just run in with Rammstein like most people already suggested (thanks again, really really helpfull tip), saves you a long-ish wait for the retarded skellies;
e) If you can affort the bagspace, getting naked and own'd by the undead swarm after Baron, running back and reseting in the meantime proved to be surprisingly fast compared to running out and killing the small undeads.
f) Don't you dare give up if you really want this awesomepr0 mount, it's so worth it.
Now I can run around being happy as an undead paladin. Best of luck to everyone who is still trying to get one, RNG can be annoying.

I am one happy enhancement shaman now. I finally got the mount after 139 runs, which 34 runs have been done pre-patch. I never thought I would be farming it again after 200+ runs of disappointment on my horde druid back in TBC..but after assisting my bf to farm the Swift Zulian Tiger with his DK in ZG and seing it drop last weekend, the motivation kicked back in..
I did about 15-20 runs per day in 5 days, it was kinda intensive but I like to keep a high pace when farming.
I'd say that the dropchance is about both luck and determination. You can get the mount by just doing one run or 250+ runs. I admire the ones who have had to put down alot of work to get it, you've kept my hopes up and thus I've kept going..
thank you. <3
A dream has come true for sure.
PS. Runeblade dropped at 120 runs.

It just dropped post-patch run no.33 on a night I really wasn't planning on doing Baron runs and moving rather slowly while watching the San Antonio/Phoenix game. If you haven't gotten it, keep it up. It will drop when you least expect it.

Run #55 and still going, no mount yet but I've made over 1000g vendoring blues. It's nice money even if you can't get the mount. Each run takes about 8-10 minutes (lvl80 SV hunter, Naxx10/25 gear with gorrila pet), avoiding all the trash as usual. For the 2nd zig boss, I don't use my pet so I dont have to worry about the MC. One gorrila thunderstomp and one explosive trap takes care of the mindless undead aoe packs in a split second.
Wish me luck, I'm not stopping until I get it. I took a break to run scholomance a few times and I ended up getting 2 headmasters charge staves, a sawbones shirt and 4 patterns of that one robe. I think my luck is good enough.

197 total runs (and counting) without the mount. I have compared statistics with everybody I have seen with this mount (in major cities, etc.) out of curiosity and have yet to see somebody with over 10 kills of the Baron. Recently A DK in my guild got it on his 2nd run, and the day after a Hunter in my guild got it on his 1st.
They mount up on them in front of me all the time.
I'm sure I'm not alone in this. It sounds depressing for people reading these comments to hear of the horror stories about farming this mount sprinkled in between comments of people who got it on their 1st, 10th, or even 30th run, but to be honest it helped me out when I read these things from other people. It's out there (supposedly) and it's just a matter of time.
On a happier note, here's a tip for those who are in the same boat as me, and occasionally die to the silencing webs as 20 ghouls, banshees and crypt fiends pound your face in because an Eye of Naxxramas chain pulled half the instance to you:
The new graveyard sucks for people farming this, but if you have decent AOE (I'm a Disc Priest so Holy Nova/Mind Sear ftw) you can just walk in there instead of running through the town or over the hills back to the UD entrance, AOE all the skellies down, open the gate and walk right back to the UD side of the instance. Seems to go more quickly to me, I'm not sure anymore, it's all a blur really. But it is a lot more cloth and gold!
Okay enough happiness, this is an absolute nightmare.
:(

144 Frayed Abomination Stitchings later, and a weekend of mindlessly sitting in front of my computer doing Strath, I found myself one. Well that and all the Strath runs I've been on prior to any kind of expansions.
Mind you... Not many will notice an Undead on this mount. =P

The runs took an average of 15m from start to Baron. Making things a little quicker, drag Ramstein back in behind the door he just opened when he comes out. Kill him in there, and you won't have to wait for the doors to open again. Just don't run in there without aggroing him first, or else you'll be stuck. Oh, and the skeletons that spawn when the door opens a second time will spawn right after you kill Ramstein in there, don't be caught off guard.

I've been farming for this every so often and notice sometimes I get lazy and just run through a pack of mobs on my prot warrior. Of course, sometimes I'll get a really crappy disease that will either reduce health regen making food worthless and causing damage over time or a disease that lasts 30 minutes and slows my movement speed.
Does anybody know of any items that can remove diseases? For instance, there was a trinket from Mara that can remove a poison effect and there are venom sacs in LBRS that can remove a poison effect as well. Is there anything like this that for diseases?
Thanks!

As a 80 Survival hunter, the runs take around 12-13 minutes.
Usually, each run will give you a few BoP blues(vendor them) and a few BoE greens. I always send the greens to my enchanter alt, DE them, and sell the mats.
Dust goes for anywhere from 2g to 6g, and I sell the Essences for 10-12g each, and they sell FAST.
I'm at my 65 run right now, and i've made more than 3000g that way.
Still no mount...
Happy grinding, and good luck =)

I've debated responding to this thread - As it is already full of helpful advice and happy people that became really lucky. But then I saw you. And I just felt I had to add onto the "Motivation" to keep on going.
This place is more of a horror story for me. I ended up getting my runs down to about 7-8 minutes a clear. I'd AOE the aboms and run straight through the gates so I could skip the skele zerg.
During my runs, I had 2 friends pick their mounts up on their sub-40 kills. It was disheartening to say the least - but I kept at it.
Since my runs were so quick, I'd end up getting locked out. I'd login my paladin account and run the instance on her as well.
My paladin received her Reins on the 42nd run.
About 9 runs later, My DK recieved hers on the 290th.
As you can tell, The loot is random as can be, And there are people with some horrible (and good luck) and maybe a little bit of both.
If you do want this mount - I hope you do keep at it, It's bound to drop for you at some point or another.
Now i'm a happy owner of 2 of these things.
Good luck and happy farming.

Be careful on the area with the Patchwerk looking guys, while farming this mount. I have gotten confirmation from a GM, and that area CAN screw up on you if you kill them too fast or too slow. Since it's on a Scripts, about every two minutes, one will come. By killing all of the in a matter of seconds, they can just despawn on you, and leave you stuck in there... I found out the hard way.

I don't know if it's been said before, but I've found that runs where you log out inside the instance after killing the boss don't count for the Baron Rivendare kills on the Statistics page.
I'm currently sitting on 300+ runs with no sign of the mount or the blade.

I just got mine today, after 15 runs. Guess I'm one of the lucky few. 2 of the runs however I did not get any loot, and I think that I might know why.
As a deathknight i find it fun to kill the Baron using Army of the Dead, and just watch them kill him. But those two times that I did not get any loot I let the Baron hit me so that the ghouls would aggro on him and kill him, but when they killed him I could not loot him. So if you are going to use Army of the Dead to kill him make sure that you hit him at least ONCE. Or else you wont get any loot!
Best of luck & happy farming!

I just spent 14 hours straight (don't ask) farming rep and this mount on my prot pally, with 500-1500ms ping the whole time. It was painful and required great mental discipline and a ton of coffee..
Anyways a guildie I haven't played with much logs in and asks to come along for some rep, NP! I say "I hope you don't plan to roll on my mount haha" ...Wouldn't you know it the mount drops 1st kill, he rolls need and WINS IT due to some apparent "confusion" as to the seriousness of my comment.
Words are exchanged and he agrees to ticket a GM to have it given to me. 2 hours of standing around later, a GM responds and after having to consult his superiors they have stated that transferring the item over to me//removing his achievement is not something they can do and to take it up with customer service. We put an email in 12 hours ago.. still waiting....waiting...
Damnit I might as well try to farm another in the meantime, and get that last few K to exalted...
Sorry for the wall of text but the moral of the story is: DO NOT FARM THIS MOUNT WITHOUT PEOPLE YOU CAN'T TRUST! GL!
I also made about 1500g in the time I spent there, selling runecloth stacks for 6g by the buttload, DEing the blues/greens and AHing epics.

Have ran this 79 times so far and still no mount, saw the epic runeblade drop once. Will definatally be back at it once server maintnence is up. But 79 times and no luck. Had the abominations bug out on me 3 times, 2 of the 3 times the doors to baron rivendare do not open and was forced to hearth without even getting to kill him, the one time the abominatinos all respawned and had to be killed. Somebody pass on some of the good luck...

DRUID TIPS (mainly for resto/balance)
As level 80 it is fairly easy to weave in and out between mobs without getting agro. If you are lower level you can choose to go kitty and stealth through, but this won't work if you have the disease that causes periodic damage, as the damage will remove your stealth.
If you are killing mobs along the way for rep, they are easy kills. I suggest turning on your auto-loot if it isn't already on. If you are resto or balance, just give yourself a couple HoTs, run around moonfiring random mobs, and then take them to a central location and Barksin+Hurricane. However, make sure you DO NOT get agro on any Crypt Crawlers when you do this (they are the spider-like guys). They will constantly silence/immobilize you and without being able to cast heals or aoe you will die. If you accidentally do pull one, wait for the first silence to wear off, HoT yourself fast, then shift to bear. Immediately kill the Crawler, then just swipe your way through the rest of the mobs while using Frenzied Regeneration at some point and possibly shifting out to heal more. Don't confuse them with Crypt Beats. The Beasts will toss a net on you which makes you unable to move, but they do not silence. Also ALWAYS make sure you have Thorns up, since it will do significant damage to these lower level mobs beating on you.
The 3 bosses at the ziggurats are easy, no explanation needed. When the door opens and you go into the Abomination room, you can pull like half the room, moonfiring each one, then stop to Barkskin+Hurricane. This may not kill them all but they will all be low on health so just cast Hurricane a second time right away. Then gather the other half of the room but leave one alive so you can drink/eat if you need.
When Ramstein comes out, fight him with your back right against a wall to reduce or eliminate the effects from his knockback/stun move. When he is dead and the skeletons come out, HoT yourself and wait a second for them ALL to come out, then barkskin+hurricane. Don't do this too early or more of them will come out and your barkskin is wasted.
When barkskin is back up, kill the skeletal guards. Then head down to Baron. The way I engage him is to cast a Starfire immediately followed by moonfire, then just spam wrath while re-applying moonfire when it runs out. ALWAYS have Thorns up. You will not even need to touch the adds, as they will die from your Thorns after a couple hits.
Good luck hope this helps.

K guys - you all inspired me to keep going with this, so I wanted to share my success in getting this awesome mount! The Deathcharger dropped for me on my 23rd run (a far cry from the time a lot of you have invested, I know) and couldn't be happier. Thanks for all the good advise on trimming down the run times as that definitely made it easier. The one thing I will add is that I got my mount right after the server reset this Tuesday. I have no idea whether or not there was a connection - based upon the previous discussions regarding the random generators Blizz uses probably doubtful. Anyway, for what it's worth I had parked my toon just outside the Service Entrance when I logged Monday night just to see if running it right after restart would net a drop for me. I logged in as soon as my realm (Khadgar) popped and sure enough - it dropped! Coincidence or not, I'm glad I decided to try it and stoked to have my new mount! Keep at it guys - it's worth it!

Okay, i know that comments that include the ammount of times farmed for it not to drop and the " YAY I GOT IT " posts are not appreciated but, i just got it and decided to tell you about something i learned when farming for it.
I probably did around 30-40 runs ( lucky iguess? )
So before i started farming it, i did some research on it, chances, tips and trick etc, and i came across alot of people reporting the Abomination-event to bug if you killed them too fast, and for all of my runs i've killed them in two groups, once the left then the right side, and it didn't bug, ever.
But what i did was, when you enter the room, the door doesen't close automatically, you have to kill one for it to shut, so i pulled one, killed it and gave it a roughly 5-10 seconds after that before i pulled the groups.
Just putting it out there, maybe this will prove itself useful for someone.

Dropped for me yesterday,
I'm a level 80 Gnome mage on Dragonmaw EU.
I didnt exactly hold the count but estimated it was between 30 to 40 runs.
i was frostfire spec, 0/52/19
This is basicly how i did it:
- enter through the shortcut to the Undead side of Stratholme
- Skip the first waves of trash & Magistrate Barthilas
- Head for Nerub'enkan (which is at the ziggurat on the left side after you entered stratholme)
- Kill him and the mobs inside the ziggurat
- Cast invisibility & move on to Baroness Anastari*
- Kill Baroness Anastari and the mobs inside the Ziggurat.
- Blink past several groups of ghouls & Gargoyles to get to the 3rd and last boss you need to get to Baronrivendare.
- Kill 3rd boss (Maleki the Pallid) and again, the adds inside the Ziggurat, then move on to baron Rivendare.
To enter the last ziggurat you need to kill all abbominations first.
What i did was cast a living bomb on the first one, pull some more with arcane explosion and Ice Lance, cast mirror image (about halfway all the mobs). let your mirror image be killed, pull the rest of the mobs, and ice block.
Let them all run to you since you are immune.
When your Ice block ran out, frost nova, pop trinkets & Blizzard them down.**
Sidenotes:
*When stealthed or invisible, watch out for ghouls, they can see you. i Also spotted a mob called eye of naxxramas, it had about 267 health and it warns a lot of mobs
** Be careful with your health, i had several times that i only just survived, using this method is thereby for your own risk.(you might even want to take a healthstone or a runic health/mana potion)
Special tips:
- Skip all trash possible, in several runs i had no trash pulled at all times, this is great for farming the mount, during my trips i was just under the instance entering limit.
- If you pull something, stop and pull it to somewhere you know there will be no mobs, the reason for this because if you pull something it will ALMOST ALWAYS start a chainreaction, meaning that as soon you pull 1 mob/a group of mobs, your probly not done yet.
Enjoy your farming and good luck ^^

Some tips for DKs farming the mount:
-While it's tempting to Death Gate after every run, DG still takes a couple minutes longer than just dieing and running back to the service gate
- if you have it, be very careful using Unholy Blight(at least before the Slaughterhouse). When I started farming, I couldn't figure out for the life of me why I kept aggroing mobs WAY out of my aggro zone.... until I noticed that the UB visuals would go off. For some reason it seems that after clicking off UB it'll do one last tick to the first mob you get near. Be careful.
-AotD is NOT a necessity for clearing the Slaughterhouse quickly; its just easymode(I've actually done it faster with AotD on cooldown). Just be sure to spam Pestilence so you don't lose your diseases.
And to all the people still farming this, seriously don't give up, and just expect not to see the drop for a long time(it took me 112 runs, WAY off from "OMG, first run!1!"). It's cliched, but trust me this mount(and, indeed any drop, like the Runesword which dropped for me 30 runs before the mount) will drop on it's own accord; mine dropped on a run I did just on a whim before bed.
Good luck all.

I would like to add my strategy for 80 DK's
Best strategy that i have come up with is, enter the instance through the side gate, once you have entered the instance the first few groups of mobs avoid them and head to the other locked gate straight ahead to start the baron timer.
Once your inside the main area of Stratholme hang a left, avoid any mobs and pats as the fly by and head to the first boss, hug a corner near the door of the Ziggurat and nuke him down, you will get the occasional web trap which is ok, just wait for him to come back to you, once you have killed him clear the trash inside the ziggurat, now to move to the second boss
Once again zigzag through the mobs to get to the second boss, kill her quickly, i have always found between 1%-50% health she will attempt to posses, gets irritating after a while, once you kill her kill the trash once again inside. Now to move to the 3rd boss
Zigzag through the mobs again and approach the 3rd boss, which ever style you want to do it do so, i take the mobs on the stairs and him together, kill him and kill the trash inside again. Now to move to the Abominations.
When you have reached the Abominations, you can do this which ever way you want as well, my way of doing this is pull all the mobs in the entire room, once there condensed in 1 area cast Army of the Undead, cast your diseases and start taking them down, your zombies will all more or less die leaving 1-3 Abominations left standing, easy to take care of since there health should be low anyways, once you have finished the last Abomination, run inside were Ramstein is and kill him inside, once you have downed him inside skeleton ghouls will spawn and you can easily take care of them, now off to Baron.
Baron should only take you 30-45 seconds depending what skills you use, my best way is cast diseases and hitting him with countless Obliterate, Heart Strikes, Rune Blade, Death Coil from the Death Trance spec (since its free when it procs), and the occasional Death and Decay for the skeleton mobs he summons, once you have downed him loot and repeat if necessary.
I figured with each run, if you can bypass all the mobs should take you anywhere to 10-13 min., i can get to the 3rd boss in roughly well under 5 minutes, figure roughly 15 min per run, you can get 4 in per hour so that makes for great timing and a quicker pace you have to get the mount, and while you in there any loot you get, take it, sell it to vendors or AH what you can, depending on how many times as well you run in a day you can make alone over 600g+ in a small amount of time.
*Be weary on a few things:
-for increased production times use Unholy aura, it will help you navigate the instance quicker
-Army of the Undead unless your spec'ed into Unholy, will have a 20 minute CD, thus allowing you to pull half the room if not more (depending how gutsy you are) until the CD refreshes on your next run.
-carry a couple of cure disease pots with you just in case if you pull a mob or 2, your health should be good since you can sap life from mobs in any spec, but bring what you want
Usually after about 4-6 runs (depending on your bag space) use your Death Gate, and fly to Light's Hope, vendor your trash, mail items to your bank alt (if you have one, or to any toon), and continue farming
I've been after this since well before 2.0 on my mage and have only seen a couple people with it personally, I myself am still after it after 30+ runs on my DK and over 150+ on my mage, i'm not gonna post when i get it because i think its unfair for some who devote years to getting this mount and get nothing then a ranting twat comes in and brags he got it on his first run, well grats for you and who cares...
That is my strategy on this instance as a DK, hopfully its helpful to some of you out there, Good Luck and Happy Hunting...

Farmed this 40 times on my pally since 3.0 and on run #26 with my DK I finally got the mount.
In regards to the slaughterhouse bug, I found that if you clear the right side first, you shouldn't have any problems with the instance bugging no matter how fast you clear it.
As a DK, I clear the slaughterhouse in 3 pulls and with looting all corpses I can manage a full run in around 12 minutes.
1st pull I run in the slaughterhouse and grab the Abom's in the middle and with my pet on passive start collecting all the mobs on the right and AoE them down. Loot.
2nd pull there's usually only 5 or 6 left so I grab all but 1 and aoe them down, loot.
3rd pull I grab the remaining Abom and pull him back by Rammsteins door so when he dies I can loot him fast and run inside before the door closes.
Note, Every attempt that I've tried clearing the left side first with my 70 pally when clearing was a bit slower, resulted in Abom's respawing and bugging the instance. So I never tested it as a 80 because i lost a good 5 attempts at the boss because of it.

I don't know if it's been done, but here are your chances of getting the mount.
0,99 = your chance of NOT getting it each run, assuming the drop rate of 1% of wowhead is correct.
1 - (0,99)^x = 0.5 ----> x = 69 runs to have a 50% chance of getting the mount.
1 - (0,99)^y = 0,75 --> y = 138 runs to have a 75% chance of getting the mount.
1 - (0,99)^z = 0.9 ---> z = 229 runs to have a 90% chance of getting the mount
1 - (0,99)^a = 0,99 -> a = 458 runs to have a 99% chance of getting the mount.
1 - (0,99)^50 = 39,5% chance of getting the mount in 50 runs.
1 - (0,99)^100 = 63% chance of getting the mount in 100 runs.
So to all those who are at their 100th + run, you're unlucky, but not THAT much. Hope those maths didn't discourage anyone!

However, make sure you DO NOT get agro on any Crypt Crawlers when you do this (they are the spider-like guys). They will constantly silence/immobilize you and without being able to cast heals or aoe you will die.
Not a problem with druids. Just shapeshift and the root breaks, freeing you from silence as well. Still an annoying time waster.

The mount (and possible even the runeblade if you're farming for that too) take the slot placement of the class pant drops for the dungeon set 1 on Baron's loot.

115 runs in and i'm still drity. It was SO FANTASTIC to get a runeblade 4 years after it was a good weap. I wish it was the mount on that 4xth run that dropped instead of the runeblade. This is silly. Everyone i've inspected is under 20 runs that have the mount.

Took me 22 runs :p Im a lvl 73 warlock with enchanting. I made over 2 k gold from the runs were I killed about 10 mobs every run over what’s needed to get to the baron. The runs took between 13 and 20 min each depending on how good I was to avoid getting the trashes aggro. The great eternal essence sells for about 20g each on my server thou the large brilliant shards and illusion dust only goes for 1-2 each and sadly those two are the one you get the most. I bought righteous orbs on the ah and sold crusader, + 9 sta on bracer and + 9 dmg on 2h enchs on the ah. That way I more than doubled my income from large brilliant shards and illusion dusts. I got alot of runecloth too ofc, I sell those when the ah price is about 7-8g per stack. TBH I wouldnt mind waiting until run number 100 before I got the mount, in that way I would have been forced to make like 10 k gold so I could afford the Reins of the Traveler's Tundra Mammoth :) On the other hand there might be alot better ways of making money at lvl 80.

5) As soon as the last Horror dies, Ramstein will come out. Don't let him. Go inside and fight there. When he dies, the black guards spawn instantly and you save the minute you would have had to wait for them.
Note: MAKE SURE YOU AGGRO RAMSTEIN BEFORE YOU RUN IN THE DOOR
I was taking this guys advice so I ran in the door. I ran right through the fat SOB into the corridor and the door closed behind me separating me and Ramstein. I waited 10 minutes hoping the door would open seeing as how I was closed off from both Ramstein and the Baron. Having only 15 minutes left on the ultimatum I used my death gate to return to Ebon Hold, flew to Light's Hope and boogied non-stop back to the service entrance. I was back inside and still had 8 minutes left on the ultimatum. Unfortunately the main gate was now closed separating me and Ramstein once again. So everything was in vain as I had to run out and reset the instance. >.< I would test your theory once again this time with aggro, but I'm not taking the chance.

Currently in my 206th run at the time of this posting, got the Runeblade, but no mount yet, incredibly easy to farm as an Unholy DK though, run past everything gank the boss, Death and Decay the adds in the ziggurat, when one dies, corpse explosion to speed it up, get to the abominations, and just bomb em down, and corpse explode the bile spewers to take the adds out immediately, and run in with Rammstein, drop Death and Decay and Unholy Blight right before he dies, blow him up, and the AoE kills the adds as you loot Rammstein, which is smart since he is guaranteed to drop a BoE green, which if you get disenchanted sells for a lot.
257th run and it drops, keep in mind that the loot table isn't ranked in item quality, it was between the 2nd and 3rd blue Rivendare drops on the second page of the loot, and just keep at it, he STILL does drop it and it will drop for you eventually.

150 runs, it is making me loathe this game- I can't even imagine what it must feel like for those much further into the 100s or even 1000+. I don't even want it anymore but I would be more upset quitting after all this time put into it.
I got the useless sword on the 12th run. Vendored.
I really don't get any hope from reading these comments and for anyone thinking about doing this sort of thing, if it isn't something you've done before- don't.
Will give my tips/advice on running it when it drops. Peace.

Well ive done 750+ runs in all. Since they've up'd the drop rate close to 150 runs. I have bad luck with mount/pet drops though so its not a big deal to me. Ill get it one day just might take me way longer then those in my guild who have gotten it after 5-45 runs.

well... just like most of the people i have had a hard time getting this mount, but today i ran it, like ussually and didnt expect anything... and there it was!
i am a lvl 80 combat rogue, heres some tips
-i always killed baroness first then maleki and sprint across to the nerubian boss, if you sprint and get away from everything, you can vanish safely.
-after you go through and kill the spider you just run back through the trap gate(the one you sprinted passed) and aoe the bugs there.
-next go straight to abominations, its easy to gather them all, use evasion,adrenelin rush, and aoe em down, if you need to you can vanish.
-save one guy for last, take him by the door, and kill him, after this just run in and kill ramm. and then the skellie guards will spawn, aoe them down/kill them in any way you want. then baron opens the door
-kill him , again and again and again, as long as it takes, and never give up.
(the abomination room can glitch up, in which case, if they all de-spawn, you should NOT ATTACK ANY OF THEM, wait untill they all come back, then you can start slaughtering them. if you kill them right away there will be about five to kill, and attacking them will close the gate, killing them all will not open the door to the house, and you will be stuck there... thats when you need to run to all the crates and aggro the bugs, this keeps you from having to hearth, but you have to do the instance all over again.
if you do this right you can slim down the run times to <10 min a run and soon enough that mount will be yours.

This is very easy to solo as any class at level 80.
I have farmed this for a few days now on my fury warrior with heroic blues and some raiding equipment. The instance itself is no problem at all. You can skip
all
the trash and only go for the three bosses needed to open the door to the two last bosses.
To run this fast as possible, don't forget to get your key to the backdoor and try to avoid as many trash as possible. However, if you want the loot or if you are boosting someone it will of course take alot longer but you will still get the job done!
EDIT: After running it a few times today I have noted all my runs and my total time from start to finish variates from 10-11 minutes. A tip is to bring speed potions and equip items to increase your running speed to really get it done fast as possible.
Also, watch out for the cadaver worms debuff when running this. It ticks for 150 damage every ten second and gives you a 100% reduced health regeneration rate which can be annyoing if you cannot abolish it or have items that removes it.
Good luck!

Did about 30 runs before i got the mount. I consider myself real lucky with drop.
Each run usually takes me 7 mins i bring about 8 abominations on one pull and kill them off then bring the remaining abominations just outside baron's slaughterhouse and kill them there.
I do this so that when the door opens and ramstein comes out i quicky move inside and fight him in there.
Just make sure your back is not facing the exist or you will be thrown out. This way i dont need to kill the small skeletons and have to wait and eternity for the doors to reopen for the black guard sentry.
When im done i take my death knight portal back to ebonhold if i got few bagspace or i just run back the normal way.

Indeed, I can confirm this.. When Ramstein appears or atleast aggroing the Abominations, the back gate closes. This means leaving the instance will instant fail your run. And running into the chamber without pulling Ramstein will lead to lockdown and failure.
So be smart and always make sure you pull Ramstein.

Got it tonight after 900 runs pre-WotLK and 317 runs with the increased droprate. So it does exist!
The formula someone posted showing there's a 99 % chance to get it with around 450 runs really helped me keep the mood up. Just continue the farming and don't pity yourself. All you hear is about the people that get it in under ten runs etc. But that's just because most people quit before those 450 runs. Just stay in there and good luck!

just a quick overview of the flesh-golem glitch just before rammstein if you're grinding for the mount;
there is a known glitch that, when only afew of the golems're left, they'll all despawn, respawn a second later, but even if you kill them all, the door doesn't unlock and rammstein doesn't appear. this glitch, obviously, sucks :p but you can avoid it by doing the following;
1) slow down on killing the golems. i would much rather stop & drink for 30seconds than haveto hearth & reset >.<
2) there are *some* issues with *temporary* pets, ie. shaman elementals, mage mirror images, dk ghouls. but as far as i know, not with either hunters or warlocks
3) location? i've heard from others they only have the problem if a golem reaches the locked door, i personally haven't, but it's not too much trouble to avoid this :]
gl mount farmers! XD

I was running a friend through Strath last night. I told him before going in to fight the Baron that if the mount dropped it was mine. lol. He didn't want it on his alts anyway. Well I was very happy to see that the mount had dropped and it was all mine. I checked my stats to see how many times I had killed the Baron before getting it..... The magic number was 4. I love the 25% drop rate. lol

If you get exalted with the Argent Dawn and still haven't seen the mount drop, keep collecting those

and use it on a Bind on Account shoulder for your alts.

Very easy to solo as a feral druid also (catform). It's better walking near the walls than stealthing for avoiding mobs, because some of them have stealth detection and as far as I see, they have bigger seeing range in stealth than normal. All you have to do is kill the 3 bosses, then in the abominations room, go in a corner, buff yourself with Mark of the Wild and Thorns (if you aren't buffed already), make sure you have full hp, put Regrowth and Rejuvenation on you (yes, even if you are feral), make sure you dont have cooldowns on your health potions (pref. to use Runic Health Potions), pur Barkskin on yourself, go back in catform, activate Dash, get all abominations on you, build 2-3 combo points on one of them, activate Savage Roar, then use Tiger's Fury and Berserk (exactly in this order), and after this spam Swipe until they are all dead. If your hp is going down, use a health potion or Survival Instincts. After they are all dead, go back in cast form, use some Healing Touch on yourself, kill Ramstein, then the skelets with Swipe, the 5 guards then the Baron :) Good luck!

The good things about this is you get loads of money, loads of rep (extremely fast with trinket!) and loads of runecloth of this!
I've did about 24 runs with no luck so far, but i have gotten over 1000g and got exalted with Argent Dawn and got The Achivement Argent Champion (:
So never give up! and you will get it in the end!

ok to clear some things up about this mount:
This mount still drops (now as some 3.09 or some other patch it now has a drop rate of 1%)
It doesn't matter what your Argent Dawn or Crusade reputation is, the drop rate depends on LUCK
Im still farming for this on my lvl 80 feral druid here's how I'm doin it: (KEY REQUIRED)
1) stealth past service entrance skeletons until you get to the main gate then open it
2) when the Ultimatuim begins, stealth past the undead until you get to each of the crystals
3) remember to destroy each crystal, you gotta kill the non elites inside
4) when the Baron Yells that the Slaughterhouse is open, go in (killin Barthemis or however u spell his name is optional)
5) at this point there are 3 ways to do this, i like goin into dire bear form and aggrooing every undead in this room, then use Beserk and Mangle em to death when the boss comes out, just a tank n spank only special move is a pushback that stuns
6) kill blackguards and then confront the Baron, when he summons his minions, you can either kill em and make him gain no health, or ignore em and let him regain health if your an 80, this shouldn't be much of a problem to you since you can kill him before he casts Death Pact
REMEBER THESE THINGS!
Gargoyles can be a pain in the ass, learn their patterns and avoid them
Some undead can see through stealth (represented by a floating eye) if your rouge or in cat form, stealth normally, but with caution
Lastly, Keep an eye on the Baron's Ultimatuim, if you die, you have to restart the instance again, and the only way to fight the Baron is if you beat the final boss (Ramstein) before the counter expires
Hope this was helpful

80 dk blood
As lvl 80 u shoudn't have problem to do it. Only one annoying thing are mobs debuffs.
If you're not plating class (as me) with ability to decurse u may have some problems.
First: this (
Ghoul Plague
) debuff may slow you a bit making a way to Baron more slowly. It's use by Plague Ghouls.
Second: disease that (
Cadaver Worms
) stops your HP regeneration and is doing damage every 10 sec. Eating is not restoring HP while this debuff is active.
My tactic is: run from Service Entrace (u need
Key to the City
) which drops from
Magistrate Barthilas
. Go past skeleton and zombies and open next gate. Then, the debuff The Baron's Ultimatum will appear to you. If you'll kill Baron in 45 minutes you'll grand 300 rep to Argent Dawn (+100 from Baron).
Run left to next Ziggurat, kill boss (Nerubian) and kill Acolytes. Run back and run to Zikkurat on right, kill Banshee and Acolytes. Run to next Zikkurat and kill boss and Acolytes. Now, you'll hear a Baron's yell that all Ash'ari Crystals are destroyed. Run to Baron's house. To enter it, you need to kill all Abominations before it. You can do it by 2 tactics:
1. First (faster, but harder) aggro few abominations and kill them.
2. Second (slower, but easier) aggro one and kill it.
When you'll kill all Abominations the boss will come from house -
Ramstein the Gorger
. Kill it. After that a big wave of Mindless Undead will come. Just AoE them.
After that you need to wait until gate to house'll be opened. KIll 5 elites that will come and entry House to kill Baron. Kill him, loot him and be very disapointment. Again.
Ran it 22 times and didn't get it right now.
So (1-(0,99^22)) chance of seeing one. That's 19,8369% chance of seeing one.
BTW., my record in running it is 9 minutes. Counting from, when The Baron's Ultimatum debuff appears.

I've been told by a few people, and i'm not sure if this is true or not, that only the sword or the mount can drop at one time and that if the sword drops, then it pretty much resets your probabilty for the mount to drop again. Once again, i'm not sure if this is 100% accurate, but it seems like something that could be worth looking in to.

Started farming this mount last week, doing 2-3 runs per day or there abouts. Was on my last run for the evening last night when it dropped, 26 runs to get it, stacks and stacks of rune and also a load of rep.
Just keep going if you aint got it yet.

The 1 in 100 doesn't mean you will definitely get if you kill him 100 times. It means you have a 1 percent chance each time you kill him. Killing Baron more than once doesn't increase it.

Took me about 40 runs, approx. 10-15mins a run on Ret Pally, virtually no chance of dieing. At lvl 80 mobs don't aggro unless you get very close, just make sure you time running through certain areas right so u don't pull pathing mobs in back of you, besides that, quite easy. Pull the last abom near the door so you can quickly run in and kill Ramstein without waiting for all the skelly mobs, besides that, not much else you can do but stay positive, did 40 runs in about 2-3 days. Logged on at 2am and gave strath another go to make some extra gold for 3.1 dual-spec coming out in a few hours, now got the Deathcharger ready for Ulduar tomorrow. Anyway,
it's all luck
, 1 or 1000 runs, still 1% every time u reset, i was fortunate enough to get it on #40, can't complain. GL if you choose to stick with it, i can't see myself ever wanting to ride on another mount.

My method was going in through the service gate, skipping the mass of mobs in the first room by simply walking around them, and sneaking to the baroness. The bats seem to have a little patrol route, so if you time it right, you can jump to each boss without aggroing. Then I would backtrack to Nerub'enkan and finish off Maleki after. I'm not saying this is the quickest/easiest route but as a holy priest I could make my way through the instance without aggroing anything. Of course, there will be a few times where you'll snag a bat flying by.
As a caster, if you ever have a spider mob attacking you, be sure to kill it first. They stack silences on you that CAN lead to your death if you have a group on you. It can be resisted but has a 75% chance to hit. The banshees also silence but it seems to miss quite often.
It's a 1% drop no matter how many times you run it. It can be your 1st run up until your 300th. Try not to burn yourself out or it's easier to give up. I farmed three times in a row usually when I got a chance and then gave it a break.
Good luck!

Just started doing Strat runs for this mount. As a level 80 prot warrior in pre-Naxx blues/purples it's a breeze...
After some of the awful grinds for the rare non-combat pets I figured this wouldn't be too bad :)
I didn't time my runs but I estimate I can do a Service Entrance to Rivendare run in maybe 15-20 minutes. That includes looting, but I'm not trying to avoid everything, just most of the unnecessary mobs.
Some suggestions:
The undead's Cannibalise racial, and the warriors Enraged Regeneration both work great if you need to regain some health during the Cadaver Worms disease (should you get it). Just time them between the disease ticks. I haven't used any pots or food yet (I won't bring them next time - more bag space for loot)...
If you want the loot as well (who doesn't ?) and you have engineering rather than enchanting, take some repair bots and a MOLL-E (portable mail-box) along. That way you can vendor the trash/BoP stuff and mail the BoEs and other good stuff to an alt mid-instance. MOLL-E has an 8 hour cooldown but if you use it when your bags are totally full you save yourself a run back to Light's Hope Chapel.
Take big bags - the more space you have the more runs you can do before needing to go back to LHC :)
And finally, don't get frustrated and don't give up. Keep at it and the mount *will* drop for you.

Ok, so far I have done 26 runs with no luck.
Each run takes ~9-13 min. including looting.
Becaus im a dk I use death gate to go sell my stuff and then run back, this adds about 5 min to the time.
So it takes about 14-18 min. per run.
I just loot the bosses i have to kill, and just vendoring this loot( No AH) I get about 40g per run.
But once you put your BoE blue's on AH that will add about 10-20g to that 40 seeing as i got a BoE blue almost every run.
So 150-160g per hour while farming for it, IMO that is pretty good money.

At 167 kills right now, still no drop.
80 rogue. Depending on how distracted I get (and if I run in to a pesky Eye of Naxx), each run, back door to Riv, takes about 6-10 minutes. Generally about four runs before all my bags are full. Making a killing in gold. AH the Runecloth, send all greens and BoE non-world drop blues to a sharder, AH world blues for twinks, AH chanting mats, holy hell it's a nice money maker. I did this four days straight (about 30-40 kills or so) and I managed about 6k gold. Hope this thing drops soon enough. Then I can stop being confined to this one space and make my gold farming go quicker :3

Got it this morning at around 1am. 5 months and 177 kills later.
All I can say is, I'm very glad I never have to go back there again. Ever. When it drops, it's so surreal after so many times like that. I Seriously sat and stared at my monitor for a few minutes, and it didn't even hit me until after i snapped into reality that it had dropped.
It's possible. don't give up hope and try not to think about it when you're doing your runs.

Feral Druid Farming Strategy
Gear
I assume new 80s can survive this fairly easily. I did this as a new 80 and while I definitely had a Leatherworking advantage my gear wasn't much better. Quest greens and blues should be fine, albeit they won't be able to take as much risks
General Gauntlet
One phrase stands out in my mind everytime I run this instance: Better safe than sorry (DING DONG). At one point or another you're going to overestimate your leet 80 aggro radius and try to slip through a crack you simply can't slip through. Before you do attempt it, answer this: If I aggro something, will it waste more time to kill it than if I just waited?
If you do happen to aggro something (and I'd wager everyone does), kill it at the spot you aggro'd it, unless that spot is hot. Dragging it along will simply result in more mobs to kill (due to engaged mob radius, which is larger than usual and will tag more mobs along).
I assume rogues farming this don't use Stealth very often. While usually if you can get by without using Stealth as a Feral it's better overall, we have another option for those times when groups are just too crowded and don't seem to be getting much better any time soon: Feral Charge. Stealth, select a far away target, and jump behind that sucker.
My preferred order is Baroness, Nerub, Maleki. My general reasoning for this is that the choke between Baroness and Maleki is simply too tight. If you find it faster to go do another way, then by all means, go for it
If you do go Baroness, Nerub, Maleki, I find it best to save your Sprint for the porticullis. After you Sprint through (which should be quite easy), quickly Stealth to avoid having to fight the insects that spawn
Baroness
Bosses are easy enough at level 80. These are just minor strategies.
You can either Mangle, Rake, Rip or just Mangle until FB. Both strategies work and depending on how you play one might be better than the other.
Nerub'enkan
Mangle, Rake, Rip or just Mangle until FB.
If rooted, quickly shift out and back in. This will save time and decrease the slight likelihood of Nerub accidentally pulling a nearby group
Maleki
Stealth past the group on his stairs
Mangle, Rake, Rip or just Mangle until FB.
Make sure to keep him in melee range. If he even moves back a little bit, he could pull the mobs on his stairs.
After killing his acolytes, make sure you stealth back past the stair group.
Acolytes
Simply gather them up, wait a moment, then Cat Swipe. Shouldn't take more than 3 or 4 to take the group down.
Abominations
Gather as many as you can in Bear Form and faceroll Swipe and Maul.
While gathering, try to keep a course. If there's an abomination that's off your course, use Faerie Fire to bring him over. Use Feral Charge to quicken moving between abominations.
While running, remember to use Swipe! It will deal extra damage to the abominations running behind you.
Ramstein
Mangle, Rake, Rip or Mangle until FB
Remember to take him inside the Slaughter House to avoid fighting the Ghoul Army
Black Guard
Switch into Bear Form and Swipe them down. You can try Cat Form, but I prefer Bear as it gives me some rage for Baron and Cat Swipe simply takes too long to use.
Baron
Simply kill him in Bear Form. When he spawns skeletons, wait for them to gather around you and just Swipe. You should kill all of them. His attacks most likely won't be able to hurt you at all.
If you want, you can try it in Cat to kill Baron faster, however if you're caught without energy for Cat Swipe it's going to hurt your time if he can regenerate.
Aftermath
You can either unequip all gear, walk out into the wandering Ghoul Army and get killed, or stealth past the Ghoul Army and make your way back to the entrance.

I got mine today after about 30 run.
I made runs only after patch 3.0.2, and only at level 80.
Usually I made a full farming run (runecloth, righteous orb, etc...), but this time I use a service entrance, and went straight to baron.
Always like deathchargers so I'm very happy to get this nice mount.
Maybe an Alliance player looks more cooler on a deathcharger, but I think my Blood elf mage is very proud to ride this mount.

Ive gotten this run down to about 8 min now, and after about 400 runs still haven't seen the mount drop. As a Naxx 10 geared Ret pally, i find it really easy with the 3.1 changes to hit the 8 min mark.
http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Destromath&n=Eckozealot
The only annoying part is the abominations at the end. I pull the entire right side of them, keeping Sacred Shield up and using Holy Wrath, and of course the normal rotation. Then grab the left side and pull them all up to the door, there should be about 5 left if you do this right. Burn them down and run through the door as soon as it opens, and kill Ramstein. Then, kill the guard and drop baron. Run out the door after looting, and 1 consecrate takes care of the regular zombies that come after you. Head past Malek's and Baroness's area, and you should be able to get out under the 8 min mark if you are fast.
Hope you all have better luck than i have to get this damn thing to drop!
One other thing, i use SotM and JoL the entire time and have absolutely no issues, and the dmg output is superior to any of the other seals. I don't think Ive ever dropped below 50% health. Now granted, i Pally Stealth (run in a big circle around) all the mobs and just hit the bosses and the essential groups.

I hate to sound like one of those thottbotters but this is the story:
I just hit level 80 on my Death Knight, and so I opened a death gate to Ebon Hold to learn my level 80 spells. My Hearthstone was on cooldown, and I was waiting for my friend to finish Wintergrasp. So I flew over to WPL (I'm alliance) and ran a quick run of Stratholme. (Me and my friend were going to power level his RaF characters through lots of instances including Stratholme. I was hoping to pick up this fabulous mount along the way) So I'm doing Stratholme alone, engage Baron Rivendare within 10 minutes of starting the gauntlet. I beat him up. And I anticipate crap loot, but I right click his corpse anyways. To my utter shock I see the purple Deathcharger's Reins. I was ecstatic.
Needless to say, I was extremely lucky, and probably won't be getting the Green Proto-drake from a Mysterious Egg anytime soon.
One thing to note is, I was prepared to do as many runs as needed to get this beautiful mount. Keep that in mind, the goal that you have, the finish line is well worth it. 1% isn't such a small percentage when you can do a run in 10 minutes or so.

80lv Rogues shouldnt use stealth coz a lot of mobs can see invisible ppl there and may lure a lot of trashes wich is time waste, much faster and easier is just run next to them.

Should be a joke for most classes at 80. As a resto druid that dual specced feral and picked up some bad offset gear, I can solo this in 8 minutes on average. Stealth does help, but it's mainly just a precaution. I could just as easily walk past everything.
The most annoying part is Slaughter Square (room with all the abominations). To save time I round up everything at once in bear form, then aoe it all down in front of the door. I'll run straight into Ramstein before he gets outside so that I don't have to wait for the door to open again. Then I go kill Baron and grumble when the mount doesn't drop again.

This is not a trick, I've used it for the past day since I originally read the above posts. I haven't been infected once. The only problem you might have is ever now and then rats/maggots/insects come out, and you have to kill them. I'm sure if you didn't kill them fast enough one might give you something. 159 runs and counting...patiently...

This mount is very easy to farm at 80 as any class. just be careful of the patrolling gargoyles in the Gauntlet. heres a map on the path i take(in stealth but it should work with all classes).
https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/maps
NOTE: this map is for speed runs and i complete runs in about 10-15 min as a mutilate rogue with decent gear. should be easy for any class. i haven't got the mount yet but i'm farming for it as much as i can.
TIPS:
1)Put together a play list of music you like. You will be there awhile and its good to have music to pass the time while farming.
2)Never Speculate and say it will drop "This time" "Or the next time". there's a 99.8% that it won't
3) It's good to bring food that gives you a "Well Fed" buff. these can make all the difference in your runs and more damage is very good.
4)IT WILL DROP! Just be Patient and it will drop eventually and it will be worth it.
Hope this helps and happy farming :D

If you pull all the abominations at once like I do, don't fight them on the stairs right next to the door.
I don't know if it does it everytime, but the one time I tried it Rammstein bugged and walked through the door without it opening, thus I had to wait for the ghoul army.

Ok so I was messing around with the crates a bit more, it turns out you can open 3 crates before the gates and not only open those 2 gates but the gate to the slaughterhouse, and in that area with all the aboms you can open some more crates and open the gate to barons room, you can literally kill baron without killing anything else in stratholme except maybe some @#$%roaches, I have no idea if this alters the droprate or not.
Edit: Messing around a little more and I found that you can make the doors to the side of the slaughterhouse (the one with the green portal) both disappear but the portal doesnt port anywhere.
评论来自
Quanta
You don't need to kill anything, actually; you can go straight to Baron Rivendare without fighting anything else in the instance. The same bug that makes the gates to Slaughter Square disappear will work on almost
any
door or barrier in the instance, including the ones that lead to the unused instance portal.
Essentially, you get the first two gates to disappear as normal, then you run towards Slaughter Square. Head right along the wall and find two or three of the crates to open. This will remove the front door of the slaughterhouse, and the door to Baron Rivendare (I recommend finding a third, as the bug can sometimes remove the cage that holds the Argent Dawn prisoner instead, forcing you to go back).
Basically, the bug will remove the nearest door or barrier to the crate. I went on a mad crate-opening spree during one of my runs and found almost all of the doors in the instance had been removed, even though I was opening crates on the other side of the instance.

Finally dropped for me on my 155th run. It really seems like you either get it on your first few runs, or it takes forever. Whenever I saw someone on their deathcharger I would armory them to see how many runs they did. Most got it in less than 10 runs.
Something to keep in mind is that if you actually loot everything you kill, you can make a decent amount of gold. I would do about 3-4 runs to fill my bags with bop and cloth, then go vendor and AH the stuff and make about 100 gold. It does make it take a bit longer(15-20 minutes per run) but at least you feel like you're getting something for the effort.

How to do it in 3 minutes (no hacks)
1. Run to Magister
2. Detonate all the Aid crates around him you can find
3. The door to the Slaughterhouse will open as if you just killed all 3 bosses.
I know, you won't believe me now. But try it. Thank me later.

A trick with Patch 3.1:
Destroying any "trap" boxes will despawn the nearest door doodad. "Loot" four trap boxes in front of the slaughterhouse and Baron's room will be wide open, without killing anything.
This may be fixed in a future patch though, maybe even in 3.1.1

I used to think most of you guys were just really unlucky and I thought to myself, 'I'm not gonna be like these guys, it's probably gonna drop in 10 or 20 runs'. Well, lo and behold, I'm at over 50 runs with no drop. Thankfully that 'bug' is still working after the latest patch. Very helpful. Good luck to everyone.

Everyone, just remember:
Random is Random.
Just because you run strath 100 times does not guarantee you a drop.
Theoretically it will take around 400-500 runs to even get your "chances" to 99%. It's mostly based around luck; But don't let that stop you.
Happy farming.

Great mount, and the fact that it gives an Achievement is just the icing on the cake.
I got this mount today and when it dropped i nearly had a heart attack.
One of the coolest-looking mounts in the game i must say.
Got the mount by skipping all the bosses.
This is how you skip all mobs and go straight to baron:
Enter through the side entrance
Hug the wall to the gate
Open the gate, walk through it
Head left, being careful to avoid all mobs
Pop an AoE at the gate trap with all the insects
Stand in front of Magistrate
Look for crates around him
Open 2 crates
Slaughterhouse doors should be open now
Head through the doors, avoiding abominations
Look again for crates
Open 4 crates
Enter Barons room, Kill him
Rinse and Repeat!

i have barons mount. farming this was a nightmare. took me 71 kills. people that get it there first 20 are lucky. i did acouple runs with a friend and it took us about 4-5mins a run.( we split up) going solo i could get a run down to 8-13mins depending on if i pull a mob or two. im a level 80 death knight in 25man naxx gear. GL farming this mount that really isnt that cool anymore since everyone has it now.

As a protection warrior this is incredibly easy to solo.
With decent Blue gear when I hit 80, I was getting runs in at 16 minutes from the gates to baron dying.
Hardest part is the Abominations that are in Slaughter Square, however all you need to if you get low on health is use Shield Block and enraged generation to get a decent amount of health back.
Since 3.1.1 I have got my runs down to 8 minutes as you no longer need to clear the Ziggs.
One final tip to get the runs quicker, try and kill the last abomination near the Slaughter house doors, when Rammestein spawns you can then charge him in those doors. Once he is dead the 6 Elite Skellies spawn immediatly, kill them and the doors to barons room will open.
After more then 300 runs in total in 4 years, I finally have this mount, and it is good

Got this on my 38th run today (with about 25 runs on another toon so maybe a real total of about 63). Used the crate method, it's wonderful since you can literally run it in about 3-4 minutes. Killed 2-3 creates near Magistrate then 4 inside by the abom's, run in and kill baron. Make sure you have lots of empty bagspace because some crates are lootable and come with lots of useless crap inside (low healing potions, gray gear, cheese, etc) and if you have autoloot on it'll clog your bags easily. I did a lot of throwing stuff away. Like everyone has been saying, run this now while this "glitch" is active because it makes farming this so much easier. Also added my screenshot, hope everyone gets theirs soon!

Got bored and decided to figure out some statistics on the drop rate. With a 1% drop rate, the formula we're looking for is 100-100*(.99)^x, where x equals the amount of runs the mount doesn't drop on.
So, if you want to figure what the chances are of the mount dropping after 100 runs, it would be 100-100*(.99)^99, or 63%. By 200 runs, there is a 86% chance it will have dropped. At 300, it's 95%. It's more likely to drop on your 7th run than 300th, so don't give up.

I've been doing it for 4 days straight now, with no mount drop.
I became exalted with Argent dawn the first day (Went from revered though)
After approximately 2 days, my friend's alt decided to join me, level 45 by the time.
He's now almost level 55, and exalted with Argent Dawn, still no mount though. The thing is, once you start, you cannot stop. I'm forcing myself to do the run over, and over and over again. I'm not using the "bug" though, since my friend is with me now.

Yes it does drop if you use the crates to get in. I just found out about this and i figured i would try it and after about 10-15 runs using the crates it drop'd. Nothing changes about a bosses loot table depending on how you do it (hard modes excluded).

I finally got it! Took me roughly 98 rounds.. or, it dropped after 98 runs.
The last 20 runs we're like "I don't even care if the mount drops or not, I'm doing this because the Gods demand me to."
Then, all of a sudden, it dropped and I almost had a heartattack.
Don't give up guys.. Perhaps you should avoid what I did though, farmed it for 5 days straight! Except this one time, when I went naxxramas.. Boy was I $%^&ed when we killed 4 horsemen...
I hate you, Baron Rivendare.

Seriously, all the "don't give up" comments aren't what you want to hear, but I gave up a few times and came back to it and got it.
It feels so much more rewarding after 121 runs.

Please keep in mind that Stratholme is a goldmine, even at level 80. This is my advice for anyone who is hardcore farming this mount, isn't using the crate trick and clears all mini-bosses for extra money.
--
1. Always run with enough empty space in your bags.
2. Loot everything. Gray items, blue items, cloth, low level food and mana & health pots. Runecloth is always in demand, so save it for Auction House.
3. After you've killed Baron Rivendare queue up for Alterac Valley. Queues are usually instant, or few minutes long, depending on your battlegroup. In AV you have vendors at both Horde and Alliance bases where you can sell all the trash you collected and repair your gear.You can also get beneficial buffs and food from fellow players during the preparation period if you entered battleground before the battle has begun. After you sell and repair simply /afk out.
4. You'll spawn at a graveyard next to the main entrance to Stratholme with a
15 minute deserter debuff
. Reset Strat, mount up and run to side entrance. Rinse and repeat.
--
It is much easier than having your HS set at Light's Hope Chapel and running out everytime you kill Baron to reset. I usually kept a slow pace, around 15 minutes per run so I don't have to wait for deserter buff to end, 10-12 runs per day max. I'm not an enchanter so I vendored all green and blue items. Combined with runecloth on AH and occasional BoE blues (and if you're lucky BoE epics) this is a great way to earn money.
I finally got my mount on my 137th run, and enough gold to build
Mechano-hog
the next day. I roughly earned around 7000g in 137 runs using this method. Good luck everyone, mount is there and it will drop for you! Just keeping going and don't give up, but don't burn yourself out, take it easy, don't farm it every day, you
WILL
get it eventually!

Use the crate trick to help speed up your runs.

Well just to put some of these statistics into perspective, I got the mount last night on my first and only run.
I'd heard about how imfamously rare this mount is to drop - I remember my brother tirelessly running Strat over and over for the mount with no joy. I had an hour to kill and I was bored, so I thought I'd give it a try. I did not for one minute think it would drop, but there it was! Obviously it was just pure 100% luck.
I doubt for those that have done this run over and over want to hear someone getting it first time, but I thought I'd share my experience - it can happen in one run, in can happen in 600.
Good luck!

Well, once inside the first two gates, you can avoid all the abominations and simply destroy 2-3 more crates to enter Baron Rivendare, which makes the whole run rather trivial and can be done in 2 minutes.

So when he fell i checked the loot..and i was so happy! It was a great day, I ran many heroics, got some great gear, and to top it off a rare mount. People hated me for getting this on my first run though :(

Hello!
For all of you, who wonder how you can do this, i've made a video about it:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XeSrdzk0ZmU
I didnt use the crate technique, so if you do that it might be even faster (4 minutes and a lil bit).
Please, feel free to add a comment, read discrpition and watch my other videos (also how to farm The Raven Lord, and more...). If you like it, you can also rate it and even subscribe :)

I'm SO sick of farming this mount, but I'm not giving up! I've gotten approximately 400 Large Brilliants whilst farming at level 80, which should technically have given me a mount by now. :<
I feel so unlucky.

If you want to get this you have to be listening to
Cemetary Gates
by Pantera while fighting Rivendare. You will have a 100% drop rate.

also...if u are just farming for this mount...in the last room where all the abominations are....when you kill them....and the door opens to let out the main obomination....run into the door as fast as you can...he will follow as long as you hit him first....that way when your finished killing him...you can kill the 4 black guards right away without having to wait forever outside killing the undead swarm...than waiting FOREVER for the door to open...u can go right to the baron!

There is a method that still works as of 3.1.2. You don't have to kill a sinlge mob except for baron. Here it is.
1. Run into the instance, sneak past every mob until you hit the boss at the gate.
2. Behind him, there is either 1 or 2 crates depending on the instances reset.
3. Open them. if ANY loot comes out, it will not trigger the gate.
4. You must open at least 2 of these crates that collapse. there are crates around packs of Ghouls nearby that work.
5. Run into the abomination section.
6. Run around opening the crates in the perimeter of the section, the remaining 2 gates will open to baron.
7. You don't have to kill Ramstien, Blackguards, or any Undead packs, just Baron.
8. Kill Baron and his Minions.
I hope this helps a lot of people with their farming. I knew a hunter who took 250~ runs to get the mount using this method.
He could get to Baron in 1 minute and kill him in 15 seconds - therefore seeing the instance lock very often. I farmed this as a prot' Warrior, taking about 4 minutes to get to Baron and 3 minutes to get out. I didn't see the instance lock more than once a day - Vendoring at LHC makes it stretch out more, and the debuff that slows you down by 20% slows you down aswell, hence not seeing the lock often.
Note: I ran a GM in Stratholme for him to clarify if this affects the drop rate, turns out Blizzard know about this and it doesn't affect anything. This method of farming will not get you banned. The only downside is that you won't make as much money from loot.
I'm currently on my 125th run, hoping to see the mount one day.
Good luck to everyone out there and enjoy this method!

unless I see a link to US realm forum saying this is an exploit I'm not to worried.

The box "trick" is legal and valid to make this run in 5 minutes or less depending on your lag and finesse! You
don't
have to fight a single mob except for the plagued insects,maggots and rats from the boxes. Finally dropped mount on run #179...persistence pays off!

by 5th run: 4.9% chance to drop
by 300th run: 95.1% chance to drop, i.e. 4.9% chance NOT to drop.
It is sad that no one here really knows math that well. I keep reading this but I guess no one knows how probability works. No matter how many times you run this it will always be the same 1% chance to drop. Increasing the times you run it will not increase the drop rate. You could run this a million times and never get it.

It took me a long time to get this on my paladin but i got it just before WOTLK hit, that was at level 70 in greens and blues (though pallies were just horribly super OP right at the patch there) still its doable at 70 or even before if your good. At 80 in t7.5 raid gear and ret spec, i can enter strats side door and have baron dead in 10 mins, so farmin can be quite easy at 80, good luck all

The crates trick is working quite well.
But there is another trick if you want to spare some precious time: once you've reached the abo (without killing any bosses in the zigourats), open all the crates you can find around the slaughterhouse, then the doors of the house are opened and you can kill him without killing the abominations and rammstein.
With this tech, runs are easily completed in 5min.
Edit: using the "full crates tech" is so fast that you're falling under the rule of the 5 instances per hour and you have to wait outside strat for a bit. I would recommend to bring several characters in front of the instance, maybe the character of a lazy friend who still wants this nice deathcharger.
2nd edit: usually (24 runs / 25 runs for me) the crates you need to open to unlock the slaughterhouse's doors are on the right side of the slaughter place, so you don't need to open all the crates around the place, just open the ones located on the right side then check if the doors are opened. I also thought that I could save some time by using the exit located next to the slaughter place but it doesn't seem to work, you can unlock the fences using the crates but you can't exit there. I don't know why did they put an exit there, naxx?

Got it on my 12th try with my druid. I was hoping to get it on my priest, too, since a shadow priest on an undead horse makes more sense to me than a druid (being all about growth and renewal), but hearing people talk about running this place hundreds of times, I think I'll hang it up and count my blessings. Good luck to the rest of you!

An interesting way to think of your chances of getting this to drop is just by using /roll. Pick an arbitrary number between 1-100 and /roll until you hit that number. My first attempt, it took me 303 rolls to hit my number, and another try it only took 24. Unfortunately for me, it looks as though I have the luck of my first attempt as I'm up to 120 runs with no Deathcharger :(.
Fortunately the supply box trick works very well. I've got my runs down to 3-4 minutes to kill baron and run back out. Now my biggest problem is just the instance limit.

I went there to clear som quests for Loremaster.
I spent quite some time there to gather all the Stratholme Holy Water needed to complete quest.
Noticed once I entered the courtyard outside Baron that the door weren't closed and I could enter the door, kill Ramstein and the 5-6 skellie spawns that comes after him.
I almost turned around without killing Baron, but since the door was open I got curious since it normally isn't.
Killed him and got myself a shiny little mount ^^
Good luck all

Here's a video I made of the full complete run starting from boss kill, spirit run, mob dodge and boss kill again. It's pretty much the same circuit each run, just watch out for flying gargoyles. Each cycle takes about 6 mins from start to finish.

Kapowder on Greymane here,
I got the mount after 2 years of trying on a solo clear.
I found that killing everything (Ziggurat bosses and trash between them) may take longer, but the runecloth and blues to vendor make it worthwhile. Plus, you don;t have anyone blasting you for exploiting a glitch.
In the slaughterhouse before Ramstein, pull the last abomination to the doors so when it dies, you can bum rush in and not have to wait for the stupid doors to open back up.

While it is technically considered an exploit, I am currently unaware of ANYBODY who has ever gotten in trouble for using the crate trick. I am close to 100% certain that Blizzard implemented the "glitch" on purpose:
In programming, the chances of a change to the code randomly resulting in tying crates to locked doors is next to none.
Stratholme has been around since vanilla WoW without problems... Blizzard had no reason to change the code in the first place.
Further proof of Blizzard wanting this mount to be easier to obtain is seen in their raise of the drop rate to 1%.
If they really considered it an exploit, they would have fixed it by now.

i can confirm that the "exsploit" does infact work, however i can not gerintie that the droprate ramins the same but i can tell you the mount still has a chance to drop. I just got mine today via this methiod. I consider myself lucky i got it on my 22nd try.
Good luck to all my felow farmers, Hope you can get one of there babys aswell.

My friend told me he want this mount. We going Stratholme and kill baron 2 or 3 times, no mount (80 warlock and me 77 rogue).
Later i am look for mount drop rates, read comments and i go to for solo. I planned 5 times per day (stealth run and crate trick). I watch videos, memorize shortest route. First day i did 3 times and no mounts.
Second day i did it 4 times and go to another instance. When i am going back for planned fifth time mount drops. I don't believe it. I prepare for months but mount drop second day. I am too happy.
I remember grinding for Azure Whelpling (took 7 days), Dark Whelpling (took 5 days), Tiny Crimson Whelpling (took 6 days), Tiny Emerald Whelpling (4 days and no drop).
I don't say i dropped mount my friend. When i tell him, i hope he don't angry me.

Just dropped on my 176th kill! I'm sure the number is actually higher as sometimes my kills weren't recorded in the achievements tab for whatever reason.
Anyways, seeing the purple text after so many runs was very satisfying and the mount is very very cool.

Dropped on my ~12th kill, 2nd day farming. As above, my statistic says 12 kills but I don't think they all got recorded. Mainly here for Argent Dawn rep and Valor Legs. Coincidentally, I was running Scholo earlier today for the other Valor pieces there... got Headmaster's Charge, even though I can't equip it...
Anyone who might be interested in this mount. Running this only hitting bosses still nets some decent cash. Easy way to also get "the Argent Champion" title(well half)... Also get the AD trinket to pick up scourgestones. Doing the "Baron Run" in the time window nets an extra 300 rep each time. My casual runs ran 10 minutes.

The number of runs does not increase your chance of seeing this mount drop.
You have the same chance on run 1 as you do on run 500.
Math is fail.

I farmed it with my pally today...so easy with a ret pally. I had the runs down to 14-15 minutes with 2 more minutes out to reset. I could do 2-3 runs before I had to leave to sell stuff.
9 runs I made 500g and a ton of runecloth for city rep turn in's.
I stopped at 9....was about to log off and I decided on one more run. Emptied my bags all out so I could log out near the instance and start up tomorrow.
Dropped on my 10th run.
Keep at it...it'll drop. They realllly up'ed the drop rate on these mounts...I've seen 2 tigers drop in the last 3 months too.
Its not actually a bad way to farm gold....500g in 2-3 hours...I was pretty happy.
Good luck all!

At level 80 as a Hunter I can easily run this in around 6 minutes. I dismiss my pet when i go in through the Service Entrance. I then turn on Aspect of the Cheetah and run around the mobs. I open the gates and enter The Gauntlet. I run around the banshee and humanoids and get on the fountain. Then I run to the gate, hugging the wall and open it. I run through the part between the two gates as fast as possible so i dont get stuck in there with the bugs. i run towards the Magistrate and kill him for the blues and open the Supply crates behind him and go into the Slaughter Square. I open two more crates and run into the Slaughter House and kill Baron. Sadly, I still do not have the mount.
Hope this helps!

I solo'd this at 70 as a prot warrior with some Howling Fjord gear and some stuff from Outland, with some dungeon gear. Took me sometime due to taking main entrance + dying from 6 or 7 spread out mobs attacking me while I was silenced and immobilized. >_<
Farmed for it nearly every level after, getting easier and easier till around 76 or 77 I learned the trick to speeding it up by opening the crates right outside and inside the slaughterhouse zone to make the gates disappear. Now that I know where the service entrance is, I can get to the Baron in 5 minutes or so and finish it in 6. Easy. I variate between arms and prot dual specs now and then, still estimating the same time.
I have 13 or 14 Baron kills on my stats and so far, no mount drop. =(

Mathematical probabilities can get a little confusing sometimes. So with that in mind, here is some information:
A
1% drop rate
means that each individual Baron kill, you have a 1 in 100 chance to see the mount drop. In other words, whether it's your first try or your 500th try, your chance to see it on that kill is 1%.
If you want to experiment with the drop rate before you start farming the mount, pick a number between 1 and 100 and /roll until you get it.
Killing Baron 100 times gives you a
63.4%
chance to get the mount.
You have a...
...
25%
chance to see it drop within
28 runs
.
...
33%
chance to see it drop within
40 runs
.
...
50%
chance to see it drop within
68 runs
.
...
66%
chance to see it drop within
109 runs
.
...
75%
chance to see it drop within
138 runs
.
...
99%
chance to see it drop within
458 runs
.
No amount of runs gives you a 100% chance to see the mount.

Thats right ... 501 freakin' kills of Baron Rivendare and the Mount FINALLY dropped for me.
In that time, I did +/- 200 FULL Clears, +/- 200 Speed Clears, and +/- 100 "Crate Breaking" Runs.
The Mount finally dropped on my 501st kill of Baron Rivendare on a "Speed Clear" where I only killed the Mini- Bosses and NO Trash.
So for all you out there that think the deathcharger won't drop, just keep at it. It will ... EVENTUALLY ... drop for you.

this mount is a real pain to get.
on my 73 pally i got it in 29 runs. just keep in there u will eventually get it.
u may get it on ur 1st run or ur 1000th run its all about luck and how much blizz's loot table hates/loves ya
hopefully i can get it soon and not have to do like 200-300 runs
good luck:)
just never give up you also get a nice amount of gold doing stratholme by killing Magistrate and Baron.
remember never do full runs. do the crate trick and kill Magistrate and baron for gold and rep.
you need to simply open the crate around magistrate till the gate opens then open all the crates not the stratholme crates on the right side then u go straight to baron.
sell all ur runecloth, blue boes, epics and any bop items or green trash if you arent an enchanter. if u are just de all greens, and blues.
never give up if u loot the stuff u kill u will get alot of gold in the process of farming ur mount. ive made almost 3000g including auctions goodluck
on my
159th run over 3 days FINALLY DROPPED.
btw u can no longer use the crate trick as it was a exploit that was fixed by blizz in patch 3.2 - i hope u guys can get it soon just keep at it and u will get it. :)

I have run this instance the total of 227 times over 3 months to get this beloved mount. Finally its mine...
Now, a few tips on how to farm this mount so that I do not get downrated :(
-- Make sure you have done this instance at least once so you have
Key to the City
which will allow you to use the Service Entrance which basically removes the need for the Human side of Stratholme.
The Service entrance is located here :
Click here for Wowhead Map
-- Its alot easier as a stealth class, but if you are level 80 their aggro radius is about 10% ""
unconfirmed
"" of what a yellow level mob would be (78-82 if you are 80). Do not worry about the "See through Stealth Icon", its practically useless due to their aggro radius.
-- You need 2-3 supply crates outside the abomination area to despawn the gates. You do not need to kill any of the minibosses in the Ziggurats, you also don't need the human side.
-- You do not need to kill any abominations outside
"The Slaughter House"
but you will need 3-5 crates to unlock all the doors to Baron.
-- The crates you need to open are labelled "Supply Crate" not "Stratholme Supply Crate".
-- Outside Baron's Slaughter House, only crates which contain plagued mobs (which appear when you go near them) will count to the 3-5 needed. Crates which are looted do not affect the internal triggers of this.
-- Baron is now solo-able in nearly every class at level 80.
-- If you are serious at farming this guy for the mount, do not give up after 5-10 runs saying "OMG, this is never gonna drop, screw this, I'm gonna kill Hogger >:(" you aren't gonna get anywhere... I did this boss 227 times before I got it... some people have had it in 2 runs and some have had it in the 1000s....
-- If you cannot enter the service entrance (because you don't have the key), the human side is required...
-- When you enter the Service Entrance,
Magistrate Barthilas
will shout something about "Intruders at the Service Entrance, Baron Rivendare must be warned", this will not have ANY effect on the instance, he will just move to outside the abomination area (near the 3 crates required), killing him is also, not required.
-- When using the crates to farm Baron,
Ramstein the Gorger
will not spawn and neither will the waves of undeads and the sentrys. The doors will simply despawn when enough crates have been opened, this will not trigger ANY events.
-- Failure to complete the 45 minute timer (resulting in execution of the prisoner) will not affect the mount's drop rate.
-- **UNCONFIRMED** If you kill any of the minibosses in the Ziggurats, the crates become useless and will not trigger any of the despawning... (which means you will need to kill all 3 minibosses.
Happy Farming :)

Dropped on my 5th kill on 8/1/2009! Guess I got lucky.
Edit: Also, I didn't realize there was a crate glitch until I was reading up on the comments. I did it the old fashion way: kill the bosses, acolytes, abominations, and jump in the door before the horde of skeletons attack (although i did miss the door while looting on the final run and had to kill them).

Was farming Runecloth for my Darkspear rep turn-ins and ended up going to kill Rivendare on a whim. Typically on Runecloth runs I don't bother with the bosses since just killing trash gets me the amount I typically am there for. So this was my first time killing him in...a couple years now, honestly, and the first time killing him solo.
Dunno what possessed me to do it this time, but, lo and behold! The reins dropped! It was my first time ever seeing them drop, and they were mine, all mine! This is a very nice looking mount and I'm now bound and determined to get it on my paladin which will undoubtedly take a longer time. But I can safely say, having seen and played with it myself, it's definitely worth any grind for a mount junkie like myself.

Farmed it like 3 times in one day back in May, got bored, gave up.
Transferred servers, raiding hardcore..
One night, I was put on standby for my guild's ULD25, so I started farming the TLPD.
A guildie mentions farming Strat for this mount, and I'm like "I guess I could go, if you wanted"
And I was sorta not in the mood to go, but went anyways.
Guess what drops.
6th time ever running the instance.
We had group loot on, agreed to need on it, and he rolled an 18.
I was right behind my boyfriend on my laptop, and I freaked out.
He turns around, gave me the hairy eyeball, and said "Grats on the time lost, I guess...."
Oh believe me, if it was the time-lost, you'd have heard "Florida wiped off the map yesterday, due to the random combustion of a 17 year old girl..."
Anyways, the tedium of patching compelled me to post.
NEVER GIVE UP ON YOUR MOUNT FARMING, YOU WILL GET IT!
Happy hunting (:

Not sure about this, but my fiance has attempted to use the crate trick after 3.2. The gates -did not-, open. Whether this was due to severe lag, or whether they finally hot fixed the crate trick, I'm unsure, but the gates would not open regardless of what and where the crates were placed. If this is true, I feel sorry for everyone unable to grind theirs as easily as I was able to (Blade on the 7th run, Mount on the 12th), but I want to make sure everyone knows that the Crate Trick most likely was fixed.
Confirmation would be great.

Whew lucky me I had just started farming for the mount @ 500 rep into Revered with Argent Dawn, was ready to go to exalted the first day and after 5 runs and 9000 rep this bad boy dropped for me.
Of course that means Bloodlord's Raptor won't drop for 300 runs of ZG. :( And that you can't run and reset every 10 minutes.

Just got it 20.mins ago, after like 8 runs, wipe atleast once every run :S, as a lvl.73 shadow priest. However, totally worth it, to be honest, didnt expect anything, its more like rutine, even tho It just took me 10 hours(total).
Almost got an heartattack when i saw the purple thing pop up in the loot table :D
Gonna enjoy riding this amazing creature.

I have been running Stratholme for this mount for probably +200 runs now and still no drop. The timer started counting once achievements came so..
Its rather annoying to farm it now since patch 3.2 because they finally removed the crate bug which means you now have to kill the 3 bosses at ziggurats and clear slaughter yard and all that. Which of course lenghtens the run quite much
which has made me less interested in farming this now even thought its quite essential if I want my
Mountain o' Mounts
. But yes I will keep farming this until it drops someday. And I seriously hope that day is soon.
Good luck to all you others farming for this mount!

While the crate glitch being removed may seem like a huge annoyance, it only seems to have increased my kill time (Timing from first gate rise to Barons death) from 2m30s to about 8m. Not
too
rough.
Basically gives you time to go vendor/mail your drops and grind as fast as the 5 instances per hour rule. :/
It seems Blizzard may be going through and fixing a lot of old world bugs like this.

154 runs for this cowboy. guess it coulda been worse. but it sure as hell coulda been a lot better. 2 runs? 4 runs? first run? but this stratholme obsession did reveal to me that i should never take up gambling cause i have some rough luck. so i'm not gonna spoon feed you some garbage like "never give up on your dreams" or some corny line like that cause to be honest, if you're not getting it within the first 40 runs then maybe it's time to find something else to do. there's so many more productive ways to invest your time in this game. i will say it does help if you can convince yourself you're there to farm gold, forgetting bout the mount as best you can. that AV trick helps shave off a lot of down time and the buffs you get speed up your next few runs. but all in all i'm grateful to finally get the drop. this mount was meant for locks... and DK's. but i'm still trying to figure out why hordies feel the need to farm this mount. does becoming exalted with UC instead make a little too much sense or something? GL out there peeps.

It dropped for me last night (8/19/2009)
According to the achievement statistics page it took 57 attempts.
I had been running it 4 times a night for 4 months so I don't really trust the achievement statistics page to be accurate.
Even after Patch 3.2 and the crate trick stopped working I kept trying.

Today, 19/8/2009 (8/19 for you Americans), I did my first Stratholme run EVER on my lvl78 frost-specced mage.
It took me a while, since I had to find my way and was needlessly killing everything I saw (needed some runecloth).
Eventually, after what felt like 4 hours (it was, in fact, a little less than 2 hours) I killed the Baron.
And when I saw that Purple skeleton head pop op when I looted him, I just laughed out loud, something I don't normally do when I'm alone in my room.
Two of my guild mates did run Stratholme for their first time as well (we we're going to compare loot, don't ask why). One of them got the charger as well, and the other got the epic sword (dunno what it's called).
I think there's something about doing this instance for the first time, since the droprate seemed far too high.
Then again, maybe it's because none of us completed it in less than 1,5 hour (some hidden timer, maybe).
Anyway, I'm just happily cruising around on my skeleton horse :D
EDIT: Judging by how this was downrated, I guess I ^&*!ed of some people with this comment. I was a bit excited when I was writing this, since I had just gotten this mount, so I was bragging quite a bit (it is all true though). Sorry for being happy with the mount :(

Well then.. I uh.. heh.
I was bored earlier, no raids or anything and I decided I should take my hunter somewhere to pass time. I chose Strat.
Got there. Did a quick key run to use the other entrance.
Decided to kill my way to Baron. Did it in about 10 minutes or so. Killed him. No mount. I expected that, so I wasn't really dissapointed at it since I wasn't aiming for it. But for some reason, I skipped on our raid to try again.
And so I did. Took me a little longer, killed him after 12 minutes. Leisurely browsed through his loot list and I saw the purple text. And I screamed. I really did D:
Very unexpected to get it in just 2 runs, ever, on that character, but I'm really glad I got it!

If you're going to farm for this mount, get a AD badge for the scourge stones and save all runecloth for any missing City rep you might have, only loot the greens and blues and you'll have a nice outcome besides being in one of the BEST instances ever made in WoW. :)

I just got mine last sunday, after almost 200 runs.
All I can say to everyone else who didn't see it drop, or didn't win it by rolling: Do NOT give up.
I did 5-10 runs every day. Just kill the minibosses, loot, kill baron, loot, reset instance.
It's also a good way to make easy money. 300g/10 runs approximately.
Ofc you'll respect the mount the more runs you ran for it. I'm never mounting another ground mount again but this.
Well except Attumens should it drop:)

There's a 1% drop chance for every time you kill Baron. It doesn't mean if you kill him 100 times that you'll get it.

Luvaria
Rasztra is perfectly correct. It's a probability, you can't just double things and say that. The formula that you will get it after X tries is -
P=1-(0.99^x)
Or, if you want to see how many tries before you have X chance to see it, then it is (the log base number inside ), where Y is the number of tries it will take and X is the probability that you won't see it, meaning if you want a 99% chance to see it, then your x value will be 0.01.
Y=log(X)
To extend his math, a 99.9% chance would take 687 tries, a 99.99% chance would be 916 tries.

I got it after my 31 run, I did the service entrace way -everytime- killed the bosses outside the zuggurats, adds inside, killed all the abominations outside the slaughterhouse, then when Ram was going out, I ran in and pulled him inside, killing him there and therefor killing the 5 guards that spawn inside so I just skipped the zombie zerg. After I killed the guards, I killed baron. In the bosses killing order, I killed spider boss ---> Banshee ---> Necromancer ---> Because the insect trap is just unessecery. I also got the mount when I didnt use Army of the Dead wich I thought was strange but maybe it was just random.
A few things that was important to me was:
Enchanting 225: You will get alot of blue and greens that you can disenchant, and you can make alot of money on this.
Music: I used Spotify and had alot of songs that I played to get my mood up.
Chat program: You can use chat programs of your choice like Ventrilo or Skype to chat with some friends while you do this.
Never give up people! Do about 3-5 runs a day otherwise you will quit and say "F*ck this" Good luck with the farming :)

It took me 40 runs over 3 weeks when it finally dropped. Just when I decided to turn on some music to make the grind less frustrating.
The run itself should be easily doable by any lvl 80. It took me about 12 minutes each run with a normal geared Blood Death Knight. DK's have a little advantage with Death Gate. We don't have to run back to the entrance to reset and we can sell our just found loot directly at Light's Hope Chapel.
The most frustrating part was the fact that I needed to stay concentrated all the time. The gargoyles flying back and forth have no real pattern and can aggro a lot of surrounding enemies. Crypt Crawlers were the most annoying mobs. They root your character with Encasing Web, then move back 10 yards. The web silences your characters, so you remain useless for 5 seconds. Kill them asap if you value your time :)
Don't give up, it will drop eventually! My guild master decided to run Stratholme and he got the mount on his second attempt. Quite frustrating, but it kept me going!

77 Baron kills post-WotLK, still no mount. Most of my kills have been in the past two days.
As a feral druid, I have gotten my runs down to 5 minutes, using dash and stealth at the proper times. I use the side entrance, and kill the Spider boss first, then the Baroness, and finally the Necromancer. Bear is a druid's best friend against the Abombs.
In order to keep my sanity while farming for hours on end, I listen to music. I also take breaks very often. Most of the time, I'm just too lazy to run back to the beginning to reset, so I'll log out in the Baron's room, wait 10 minutes, log back in and I'm at the entrance. Reading about people getting the mount helps too, especially when you see a person who has only run it a few more times than I have!
Happy farming, and good luck!

I believe it....748 baron kills on my DK, and I haven't seen the mount yet. I've gotten his Friggin runeblade not once, but 5 times! But still no mount. Add in the fact that I've had to hearth out at least 300 times due to the slaughterhouse event getting bugged....Someone seriously doesn't like me.
To add insult to injury, literally every pally and DK in my guild has gotten it on their first Baron kill. When you see "Player have earned achievement Stratholme, followed a few seconds later by Player has earned achievement Deathcharger, at least a dozen time in 2-3 days.....it gets VERY irritating.

A little time saving tip for engineers.
At the area where the gates close behind and in front of you (after spider boss I believe) and spawn tons of annoying insects, you can use your
rocket boots
to zoom past the area before the gates close, allowing you to skip the insect spawns entirely.
EDIT: Just tested this. Even if you're not an engineer, popping a
swiftness potion
does the trick too.

I've been trying for this beauty for the past week, and had it drop on my 56th run. Kind of fitting that it dropped on Halloween.
The crazies started setting in at about run 50. I started wondering when the bosses' loot drop was decided. Is it right when I zone in, or is it right before I kill him? There are no voodoo rituals you can do to make this drop any faster - so crossing your eyes and reciting Oingo Boingo lyrics aren't necessary despite what you've been told!
To make this grind a little easier, I recommend looting the bosses and the abomination cluster near the end. You'll get a fair bit of gold this way, and it will help you justify losing your mind.
To the player who stuck around for an astonishing 501 runs - you have my utmost respect, and deserve to have this damn mount named after you!
Good luck all!

It was really lame doing stratholme that much, but it was worth it.
A tip when you are farming is that you're using skype/vent and talking to someone or listning to music, it made it abit more chill.
Dont give up folks! It's a pain, but when you have it, you will have an wowgasm, trust me.. See that purple horse mount will make you go "Oh my god... Seriously!".

I am pleased to say it dropped on the 205th run. Had been getting discouraged and wondering if it would ever. Scrolled to the second page of loot and there it was.
Do not give up. During the runs I also obtained Alcor's Sunrazor. With looting and vendoring I would estimate another 4k+ in gold. Runs took about 15 min per.
It's my new daily mount, ahead of the Chopper and Frostsaber now.

75 runs and no luck for me yet, but still a little early to get discouraged.
Something worth noting... The banshee ziggurat guard/boss only attacks with magic, and being 21 levels below a level 80 player, most of her casts miss. So if you aren't a melee class with a ton of strength, you can skill up your alternate weapons relatively well. I regularly took 5 minute afk breaks while chopping away at her, only checking in periodically to cast some damage absorption or bandage. I was surprised that it was possible to level weapons all the way to 400 on such a low level mob, but check for yourself. Sure, gettting that last point took 2 kills worth of attempts, but it came after about 15 minutes of combined effort (if you can even call it "effort")
Alternately, melee classes may be able to slow down how quickly she dies, by switching out some gear to reduce strength/attack power, but obviously reduces stamina so you'd have to actually watch what's happening to bandage frequently enough.

Suggestions:
Still haven't gotten it.
If you want the mount and that's all you want then you're wasting your time....
Stratholme is good for grinding Argent Crusade rep. and Runecloth (which is good for any of your faction's home cities).
So, put on your Argent Commission and give it it a go, but dont' do the instance just for the mount....
If you're an enchanter you'll get lots of mats. I am, but I am disenchanting and then sending mats to a guildie who is leveling it (I'm at max level).

I won my Deathcharger on my 33rd run of farming. The mount has about 1% chance to drop and no amount of time or bosses killed can affect this chance. And superstitions like "Don't say the mounts name, don't even think about mounts while running Stratholme" don't work. I was talking to my friend about the mount itself and others when mine dropped.

During the first days of November a former Guild Mate and good friend of mine was doing his (and I am not joking or implying anything) 666th run over Stratholme with his level 80Unholy Death Knight. He was jokingly talking to me on Skype on how the devilish run should have been done on All Hallow`s Eve for the extra ``lucky mojo``.
It didn`t drop for him and from what I know, he`s still farming that place 2-3 times a day.
I`m just amazed on how truly lucky some people are getting the mount in the single or double digit number of runs and how this guy would still be joking about almost 700 runs.
He doesn`t even pick up the Uncommon or Rare items, he just takes a low level friend and gets him to wait by the entrance. Five minutes into the run, the second guy starts looting (the loot threshold is on Epic). He is too nice of a guy to ever be ninja`d.
He made over 20,000 gold selling just the Runecloth that dropped in the weekends. He has the mammoth and all his bags and bank bags are Gigantiques (except one Leatherworking bag).
``It has to drop sooner or later, right? Just don`t mention server disconnects and rollbacks. Please, don`t ever mention those.``
When my Paladin gets to 80, I`m going to start doing runs for it too. If it drops in my first (yeah, right! dream on!) or my billionth run, I`m still going to do it. Giving up on it means that the evil masterminds at Blizzard have won and broken you. ; ) After all, this mount is in itself a badge of honor.

Got a partial run from a guildmate in my 50's, and we didn't get to the Baron before the timer ran out, so yeah. I've never actually killed the Baron on my main before. So I decided to get on my 72 hunter and go and try to solo the Baron. I went right to the Gaunlet gate, and through a lot of swerving and feigning and waiting to be un-possessed, I finally got to the Baron! Totally failed the first round, but luckily, I feigned with 100 health, preventing a walk back and/or a 'HAHA, YOU FAIL, START OVER' bug. I decided to forgo being cautious with aggro and just Volleyed the #$%^ out of him, and he went down easily. +1 Achievement.
I nearly died when I saw the Deathcharger drop. My heart started going so fast. :D I was so damn excited. I've wanted this mount forever, but haven't been able to get into Stratholme to get it, especially since no one on my server runs the high-level pre-BC content except for BRD. But yeah. +1 Feat of Strength!
TL;DR: Dropped on the first kill! Heck yeah!
Good luck to all those still farming for it. You'll get it eventually. It's totally worth it. :D

This mount represents(ed) everything I love but also hate about MMOs. Farmed to the point of insanity just for one item is frustrating at the best, but when you finally see the bright purple letters it gives an excitement that makes it feel all worth it. I actually got this tonight after only 36 runs(according to achievement statatistics) but it certainly felt like a lot more than that.
There's really only one tip I can give that I can't stress enough if no one else has already.. ALWAYS kill the last fatty near Ramm's gate. The black guards are designed around a level 60 group dungeon, so after the zombie zerg comes out it's aprox(I believe) one minute between zombies coming out and guards opening the doors. By running in and killing Rammstein inside you can just kill the guards in there and kill Baron before the zombies even come out the gate.
The biggest pain in the ass to this, in my opinion, is the run back out. Wastes so much time...

Dropped for me yesterday.
Run # 108
As a lvl80 rogue I can do it in 8 minutes + 2 coming back from graveyard.
Best and fastest tactic is:
- enter from eastwall gate
- kill nerub'enkan
- kill baroness anastari
- kill maleki the pallid
- kill the abomination BUT leave one alive (possibily one near slaughter house's door)
- when kill the last abomination, the door opens and ramstein appears
- GO INSIDE immediately, aggro ramstein and kill him down the stair (stay near the true baron's door)
- doing so, the door will close and the little skeletons will stay outside
- killing ramstein downstairs will avoid aggro from the 5-6 skeleton guards
- kill the 5-6 guards and then kill the baron
- remove equipped items with durability and go outside
- little skeletons will kill you in a bunch of seconds
- as a ghost, go back to eastwall gate and repeat
7-8 minutes for the run
1-2 minutes to go back as a ghost
notes:
- if you aggro some mob, DON'T vanish near them cause most have stealth detection and you will reenter combat. Use sprint or engineering nitro boots to run in a "safe" place and vanish, 99% you will leave combat
- if eye of naxxramas appears and puts you in combat STOP MOVING and KILL IT with a throw as fast as you can
- as a subtlety rogue, I noticed that it take LESS time killing single abominations than aggroing them and using aoe... maybe a 51pt combat spec is even faster
Keep trying and you will get the mount.

Soloed the Baron all the way to exalted AD on my lock with no luck on the mount. However, I decided to start giving it a shot on my DK, since he can port to the eastern plaguelands (making multiple runthroughs a lot easier). Yesterday morning, after 17 kills, the mount drops and I'm on cloud nine! Yay!
However, the funniest part was when a buddy logged in later, he decided to try his luck after seeing my cool new mount. On his second attempt...you guessed it...new skelly mount for him as well! I was still too happy getting my mount to be annoyed at how much less effort it took him :)
Previous posters are dead on, just keep trying and it
will
drop. I did make a fair amount of gold in the process (even my unlucky warlock at least was able to get his Argent Champion title as a consolation, due to all the rep gains), so make sure to loot as much as you can. If you're a DK, it's much easier because you just port back to Archerus, fly down to Lights Hope, vendor/mail/repair, then head out for another try.
Good luck!

For everybody out there that still haven't got the mount, don't give up!
I got on my 333th run!
Took me quite a while in order to get it, even spoke twice with a GM, and had 100 mount achievement before I got this mount!
Best looking mount out there, hands downs!

Hi. I got this mount today. I was using two Skullforge Reavers'. (The weapon that the baron drops) And i was using The Cape of the Baron. (A cape that the Baron drops) And the next run i did i got the mount. So i think that if you use the weapons' and the cape you will get a higher drop rate chance. I don't know if that's true but i got it the run after equiped all these items. So yeah. I dunno but it's possible :)

Here's how to do a speed run as a frost-spec death knight, lvl 80 - I hit about 2k dps fully raid buffed, so my gear isn't exactly stellar, but I can do a run in about 10 mins easily.
- Do the whole run in Frost Presence. I tried it in Blood Presence but I took too much damage here and there and lost time bandaging.
- Start at the Eastwall gate. Run inside, and if you don't have the Key to the City yet, get someone to open the first gate just before the chapel for you. If you've got a Swiftness potion (or rocket boots in my case) you can Death Grip the Magistrate before he runs off. Nobble him and take down the skeletons with Howling Blast/diseases/Pestilence. You'll survive this no bother with a few Death Strikes for health. This will get you the Key, and now you can run it solo.
- Through the next gate, and you'll hear the Baron shouting about his prisoner and you'll get the 45min debuff. Keep an eye on it - it's great as a timer for your run.
- Go straight ahead, around the banshee, left of the ghoul pack by the wall, and towards the Baroness Anastari's ziggaraut. Watch out for the gargoyles but if you do it right, you can run past everything without aggroing. Again, if you have pots or rocket boots you can use them to speed things up and get around mob packs faster.
- Nobble the Baroness. She's all magic, and %^&* easy. Inside the ziggaraut, gather up the 5 cultists and waste them with one Death and Decay plus one Howling Blast crit. If you don't have the crit ready, just drop the AoE and wait for them to fall over - but it's faster if you can blitz them down straight away.
- Back to the gate where you came in. Go left, and run diagonally across the road towards the opposite wall, just to the left of the cultist mob group. You can run along the wall, then run across towards Nerub'enkan's ziggaraut when the gargoyles fly away.
- Nobble Nerub'enkan. He tends to drop a debuff on you that roots you and stops spellcasting, and backs off out of melee range. Best thing to do is just hit him hard and fast, and hope he doesn't do it too many times. If he does, he likes to run away and aggro the mobs nearby, and you lose time killing them all. Kill the mobs in his ziggaraut.
- Run across the road to the next gate. If you have speedy stuff, you can zoom through without getting trapped - just don't wait around on the other side because the insects do come after you. Otherwise, one Howling Blast kills them all.
- Run around the cultist mobs to the right, and follow the wall towards Maleki the Pallid's ziggaraut. There are two ghouls here that you can aggro if you don't hug the wall. Kill them if you do - but they do a disease debuff that slows you down that lasts for half an hour! I've had several runs slowed because of these guys.
- Run around the banshees in front of the ziggaraut. If the gargoyles are flying about, or you can't get a clear space, just Death Grip them over to the wall and kill them - don't wait around. Speedy stuff helps a lot here. At the ziggaraut itself, run up the right hand side around the cultist mobs on the stairs. You can just about jump over the side ledge at the top and get to Maleki himself without aggroing them, but you have to hug the wall.
- Nobble Maleki. He sometimes bugs right in front of the doors, and you'll get "out of line of sight" errors for your special attacks but your normal attacks still hit. It's no bg deal, but it can slow you down. He's all magic damage so there's no danger to you. Kill the mobs in his ziggaraut, get the Baron shouting that the Slaughterhouse is vulnerable.
- Back at the base of the ziggaraut stairs, run over to the wall to the right. There's a group of cultists on your right, and just ahead of them there's a few ghouls. Hug the wall in-between them until the mobs move and you can run around the ghouls and onwards. Run around the corner, and you'll see another group of ghouls. Again, wait for the opportunity, and run around them and into the Slaughterhouse.
- Kill the abominations. Diseases/Pestilence/Howling Blast/Death and Decay will take them down no bother. Death Strike to keep your health up, remember you waste time bandaging. I usually clear them in two groups, one each side, and make sure you're standing in front of the Slaughterhouse door when the last one goes down.
- The Baron will shout again, and the door will open for Rammstein the big abomination. Run in IMMEDIATELY and hit him, and pull him down the little side stairs. I do this so his body won't be in the way when the skeleton guards spawn. He sometimes stuns, but he'll still go down fast.
- As soon as Rammstein dies, run back up the little side stairs and pull the skeletons. They have bugger all HP and a bit of AoE will take them down. Then the Baron will shout, and his door will be open.
- Run in and nobble Baron Rivendare. Save your Howling Blasts for when he spawns his skeletons. He'll go down fast. If the gods of Warcraft are smiling, he'll have your Deathcharger all ready and waiting. If not, loot and Death Gate out to Acherus Hold. Fly to Light's Hope, resetting the instance while you're in the air, vendor your crap/repair your stuff, and back you go to Stratholme for another run. You can also run back through the instance and out to reset and go again, but I find it easier to gate out, clear my bags and ride back - no chance of aggroing more mobs.
And there you have it. I loot only the bosses (blues and greens) and you do get maybe 30g a run just from vendoring those items. I've gotten 5 Gauntlets of Valor off Rammstein so far, and you can auction them for extra cash.
According to some arcane maths my friend was talking about, if the drop chance is 1%, you'll be lucky to see the mount before the 50th kill and unlucky not to see it before the 150th kill. Like, on average people see the drop after the 50th kill and before the 150th kill. I don't know how true this is because I didn't understand what he was talking about. :P
40 runs for me so far, and counting. But there is no mount better suited to a death knight, and as a human I can't get an undead horse any other way.
{added by edit} It dropped for me at 153 runs :D

At level 80 with 226 average ilvl gear
8-9 min per run with actually looting bosses and a few trash - no reason to hurry, laze out at 12 min per run due instance reset limits
70-80G sellling the crap per run to vendors - you need mammoth/jeeves to do this fast - alternative is to not loot anything or spend too much time destroying the blues "enter - delete"
if you have enchanting 225+, this is pure win - tons of gold
As a previous runner said, preserve your sanity, try to actually make some gold out of it / short term goals - if your only reason is the mount you will go crazy.
Don't bother tracking the Baron kills count yourself, just go to Achievements > Statistics > Dungeon & Raids > Classic > Baron Rivendare kills (Stratholme).

Just got it today on my first run of the day. #206 overall on this toon. I have done maybe 50 on other toons.
I never thought it would drop, and it was all just a hoax to make me run that place a million times.

I hate you and your math. And Baron. Been running this since hitting 70 and clearing Kara back in the day, 2-50 times a week, and STILL NOTHING!
Math angers me now.
As of February 14 2012, I have given up on Rivendare's pony... I have run Strath for a few years, continuously, multiple times a week, on multiple toons, and still have not seen it drop. I shall run Strath no more forever!

actually, after you've killed all the fat bastards outside last boss - the fat boss comes out - run inside the gate and kill him there - gates closes and the weave of skeletons come. If you lvl 80 you know what I mean with the 100 years waiting for the gates to open again and let the next weave out, well now u can just skip that part, and kill the next weave inside while the other weave is outside, in that way the gate opens to last boss!
I've been in that instance so many times I can't count. I farmed my runecloth in there for rep with home cities. No mount yet, but I wont give up untill I get that god damn mount.
GL with farming! (
sorry for bad english

Now time for another Fact and Rumor:
Rumor: If exalted with Argent Dawn mount has a higher drop.
Fact: It will always have the same drop rate no matter what unless changed by Blizz regardless of rep.
This has been another Fact and Rumor

funny how I've had better luck farming for
Arctic Fur
yet after 6 runs total I've gotten nothing but the same loot from Rivendare.
Gauntlets of Deftness
Ritssyn's Wand of Bad Mojo
Scepter of the Unholy
Devout Skirt
These are the ONLY things I've ever seen Rivendare drop in Stratholme. Despite me only being there 6 times total, it's still frustrating to get the same exact loot everytime. >.<

It's a pretty good idea to pick up Argent Dawn quests / the AD trinket to get exalted with AD while you're farming. I farmed the rep as much as the Deathcharger, and got Exalted right before I had the Reins drop. Took a total of 25 runs. As an 80 Feral Druid my runs ran about 13-15mins each. So make sure you pick up the quests/trinket, may as well do that while you're at it! Good luck!
Edit: Btw, in all the runs I did, my poor Druid has not seen a pair of Wildheart pants (which I want for nostalgic purposes). I saw none of it AND got the Baron's Sword before I got the mount.. So just keep trying ^_^

What a great Xmas this year!
1. First a random pally in Sholozar Basin invites me to tame Loque'nahak.
2. I start running Stratholme to get my Rep with AD to Exalted.
After my fifth run (yesterday) on the Baron kill, I hit Exalted and the mount dropped.
As far as getting to the Baron quickly, I take down Nerub first, then the Baroness (who did MC me into killing my pet and into a few mobs the first time, then Malek. I find taking out the Banshees and the Crypt Fiends in the middle of the paths is quickest.
When the gargoyles come around I try to time it so that they are on top of my bear when I hit Thunderstomp.
From there its pretty easy to get to each Zig and then into the slaughterhouse.
Happy Hunter! Happy Hunting!

I'm personally up to 145 kills of baron between 3 characters. 110 on my shaman, 33 on my mage, and 2 on my dk not a single drop. I've been killing baron since the summer of '06 (wasn't farming for the mount until the drop rate was increased) and have yet to see it drop period. This atests to its randomness.

While alot of people are saying this is the "rarest" drop in the game i would have to argue that point. The rarity of a drop is not measured JUST from by the drop rate, at least not for me. I measure rarity in difficulty, time to aquire and drop rate. And while i understand not everyone sees things as i do i simply wanted to express my feelings on this item.
For instance, Thunderfury, Blessed Blade of the Windseeker i consider to be much more rare. Spesificly because it takes a very long time to get, the drop rate is very low and its still very difficult to get, dispite everyone being level 80. All of that aside this mount IS a very rare drop but to say the "rarest" drop is an overstatement. All you have to do, is run a dungeon (wich can be reset any number of times unlike a raid such as Molten Core) and kill spesific mobs inside. In addition nearly all the mobs can be avoided, and all the mobs that cannot can be soloed.
I still have not gotten my mount yet, in over 170 runs so its not easy for me to say this is not the rarest drop but its the truth from my point of view.
I wish everyone good luck in farming this mount as it takes a long time, and will no doubt anoy you to the point of pulling out your hair.

Best thing about this mount.. got it in 1 run!
this is what happened:
I was on my main belf hunter lvl 80 and i was running my buddys druid and he was lvl 54 and he died before hitting barons room and i was thinking hmm maybe the mount will drop and of course i get to baron's room and just hit him with ES and Volley and took out snakes and fire traps and he dies and slowy my friend rezs and says what droped? and i take a look at the loot and before my eyes it droped! he passed and i got it and the next 3 days we ran it again and it droped again and he was like "this sucks i wanted it on my pally" of course he looted it and the 4 and a half days he ran and farmed strath and no drops for him!

There's a nifty trick for any enchanters doing this dungeon for the mount. If you are running this solo, party up with someone else who's questing, leveling, etc, and you'll be able to auto-disenchant items that drop, saving up alot of time. Also to those who don't have enchanting, you can always try to party up with an enchanter with a high enough skill level and you'll still be able to disenchant items, as long as looting isn't set on free for all.

Got this today on 1/17/10, and I wasn't even trying to get it, I was in Stratholme farming Argent Dawn reputation for the Achievement/Title. It was my 16th total time killing Baron Rivendare, I started farming at 9:30-ish on 1/17/10. 7 runs later, guess what dropped?
(The Real Reason I was killing Baron to begin with (besides the 450 rep) was to get another Skullforge Reaver, they look badass.)

Managed to have this drop after about 36 runs, which is relatively quick in comparison to how many runs a lot of people have been having to go through to get it. Keep at it, it's bound to drop eventually.

ive just started running strat (about 20th time now) havent gotten the mount and this instance is easilly soloable as a level 74 ret paladin (although the ramstein trick saves time) also more motivation to run it endlessly since going for the argent dawn achievement (halfway through revered, so that will be done soon) otherwise i just sell all of the armor and deposit the gold in my gb (100g + in a good run) also got a purple off of one of the undead trash mobs before the gauntlet. Now selling it on ah. takes me about an hour to clear but skipping scarlet since i only need them for achievement.

Keep going everyone who hasn't gotten this. I seems I have incredible luck with drops, since I've talked to many people who have killed Baron hundreds of times with no drop.

(Posted onThotbot and thought I would post here)
Had it drop yesterday 1/23/09 on my 79th try.
There are a few things I want to point out for it (and most of em have been said but I want to emphasize them).
1. DO NOT GIVE UP (it has been said but is very important) keep at it, and it will drop for you.
2. Do not expect it to drop! Running it each time and saying "It is totally gonna drop this time" is not good for one's sanity. Just keep going in there (with the mindset that you want the mount) and tell yourself "it would be cool if the mount dropped....but at least I can vendor/DE the stuff he does drop and make some ChaChing out of it" The only time I had a hunch it was gonna drop was out of a gut feeling I had on went to click his corpse on that awesome 79 lol.
3. Get moral support from your guild, and get inspiration from Wowhead and Thotbot boards. The only reason people will never see the mount is because they lose all hope of it dropping. Hearing your guild cheer you on (or hope you get it so you shut up about it) and reading stories of "such and such tries and it dropped" will keep you going.
just keep at it boys and girls and you will have your very own zombie horse....woot!
Oh and to all those who are bummed that the sword dropped and the mount didn't, I had the sword drop before my 20th run....and think of it this way, if the sword dropped the mount should not be far behind :-)

Drop this after few runs, but I have to say, it was kinda disappointing. I didnt gring it hard, max twice a day. Best part about getting this mount was shiver and excitement a second before opening Rivendares loot window - will the purple text appear? Yes it appeared to me and I dont feel any better about having this mount, the surprise is gone. Time to repeat this on my DK:-) Good luck to all..

I'm lvl80 just got mine after 49 runs, and show'd to guildie who had about 250runs prenerf but got frustrated and stoped farming it. (Im sure you can gues his reaction ^^) Basicly dont give up I went up using this sistem, ofc didnt looted nothing else even blues from baron:
The number of instances you can enter is linked to your other characters on the same account as well. This means that if you have reached the entering limit on character A, character B will not be able to enter any instance.
Example:
1:00 : Instance 1 entered
1:10 : Instance 2 entered
1:20 : Instance 3 entered
1:30 : Instance 4 entered
1:40 : Instance 5 entered
1:50 : Instance 6 Unable to enter. You will simply walk through the portal without entering the instance.
2:00 : Instance 6 entered
Squeze them 5runs in one hour if you to fast wait till clock turn back to **:00 and keep going. Being Death Knight myself I always had issues with LK and his gang, so beating up baron every time was only a pleasure. Everybody who is here and farming, dont give up! It will drop i promise ;)

I never go for crazy low droprate items like this one (buff to droprate or not, it's still frustrating).
However, I did 8 baron kills for the T0 Warrior legplates I needed to complete the set.
Yesterday I went in for a quick run and to pay a visit to the Ancestor in there (for the Lunar Festival event). I went in there as in the other 8 runs, didn't aggro anything, cleared the ziggurats, got to the Baron after 7 minutes, killed him and looted the corpse.
First thing I notice...the looting window had so many items that it had an arrow pointing down to scroll to a second page. I thought to myself: OK, T0 legs, a random blue, one green. That means that the only thing that can be in the next window is the Runeblade...or the mount.
I savoured the moment, kinda nervous. Even told the guildchat about it: "check where am I and wish me luck".
I scroll to the next loot screen and it's the sweet, sweet mount. 9 runs total since vainilla.
I guess it kinda makes up for the MONTHS I've been trying to see a Green Proto-drake from one of those bloody eggs.
One happy Human warrior.

I've been farming this bloody thing since level 70, and yesterday was my ceremonial 391st Baron Riverare kill -_-! Still no head nor hair of the thing, and I've all but given up haha! xD
A question to those lucky enought to have the reins...Is it worth it? :S

Here's my story:
My brother and I (both 80s) have been farming this mount since well before WotLK release. As been stated here already, this is the easiest "rare" mount to farm primarily because as an 80 you can blow through the instance in 15 minutes.
My brother and I regularly farm most rare mounts with help from guildies when needed but the Deathcharger always eluded us, even after the buff in droprate. We would farm the charger 15-20 times on days we had nothing better to do.
My brother is in the military and is deployed right now and I was running a level 56 friend through Strat to get them to 58 and, I'll be damned, the charger dropped on our 6th run.
Keep truckin' fellow gamers ;)

Useful tip for those of you keeping stuff to vendor and you don't feel like hearthing/walking to Light's Hope/not an engineer/not a DK
Nearby is an NPC called

Augustus the Touched. Do his quest for him, and he becomes a vendor that you can sell your junk to. He cannot repair though, sadly.

I went into Strat to farm runecloth for an alt, and decided I might as well try for the mount while I was there. After only eight runs I got the mount. Bad news for some of you who have been trying for weeks, months, and maybe even years to get it, but I am only posting this to inform everyone that it can drop at any time, obviously, and its just a matter of luck.

Although Ultismash's information in the above post is very nice to have, there is still one thing that bothers me; Will skipping the skeletons and zombies from the gate to the left (Mindless Undead) after Ramstein have a
nything
to say? The pause between the Mindless Undead and the Slaughterhouse opening has got to be there for a reason.
I always kill Ramstein inside the door, then kill the Black Guard Sentries skipping all the Mindless Undead. Saves quite a bit of time.
Could anyone confirm that the mount
will
still drop if you skip them?
EDIT: Okay guys, I can now
CONFIRM
that the mount DROPS regardless of skipping the Mindless Undead. I just now got it on my 37th run (lucky) and I went straight into the Slaughterhouse after killing the last abomination, killed Ramstein and the guards, killed Baron and BAM there it was. So atleast there is a piece of good news to all; skip those damned Mindless Undead.
And good luck to all of you with your farming, don't give up! :D

Got mine the other day... wait for it... on the 3rd run!
Easy solo. You do not have to kill all the trash mobs, just the 3 sub bosses and all the Thuzadin Acolytes inside the buildings they are guarding. Once this is done,
Baron Rivendare yells: The Ash'ari Crystals have been destroyed! The Slaughterhouse is vulnerable!
and the large gates to Rivendare's area will open.
Kill all the Venom Belcher / Bile Spewers and the event will begin.
Don't give up and good luck!

Hey guys, even though it's been said by many others. Once this drops it really is worth the wait.
My train of thought:
Cataclysm is coming out soon - lets stock up on raw mats for all those new goblins (I'm horde) who want to powerlevel their professions up so I can make a lot of money. Let's not kid ourselves there will be heaps of them!
While I farm, lets go to Stratholme for the mount! That way when the mount drops I'll have all the mats I need!
What I'm trying to say here is that yes, farm for the mount it is
AWESOME
, although have some sort of alter motive so you don't get over it, throw your hands in the air and give up.
For instance, I didn't even count how many tries it took to get it. I would imagine it was anywhere between 40 - 70.
It was only recently though I started doing 1 - 2 runs a day for
fun.
That's right - fun.
I came out with
124x Stacks of runecloth
184x Large Brilliant Shards
32x Stacks of Illusion Dust
138x Greater Eternal Essence
7x Pristine Black Diamonds (sell for 250g ea on my server)
1x Brain Hacker - world epic drop
As well as many other bits and pieces.
My best piece of advice I can give is break it up as much as you can. I wouldn't recommend doing 8 and 9 runs each try, do a couple and if it starts to get tedious go and do something else!
It will drop quicker if you are not solely looking for that to drop :)
The only thing is, I'm not sure if I've got all the mats I want but now I have no motivation!
...time to hit up UBRS and go for the epic ring or something ><

i know that no one cares who did X runs to get the mount but it took 42 for my charger to drop.
i have to mention that i did lots of runs in vanilla WoW and over 200 in TBC on other chars.
and finally i'm a proud owner of one. yay! what a long trip it's been! i wasted hours and hours on farming in total.
one thing: never give up!
if you are Death Knight, that is the mount you should get imo.
good luck everyone!

Got the mount on my 27th run. Best advice I can give for dealing with not seeing it drop over and over is to think about it as just another day at the office. I ran it 1-3 times every time I was on, and if it didn't drop, oh well, I just kept going about my day on WoW. Keep it in mind that I got it on my 27th attempt on this toon, but on an old account I ran it well over 200 times before seeing anything.
Also, there is a strategy I found by looking a little online and also with experimenting in-game for farming the mount.
The service entrance is a given. Skirt around all of the mobs to the left, open the two gates, and your in Banshee and Crypt Stalker land. They can be irritating because of constantly getting webbed and silenced, so learn the aggro aggro ranges. I go for the Crypt Stalker boss first, to skip the plagued insects that come from the one gate. After killing him, exterminate the guys inside of the temple, and move on to the Banshee boss. Again, keep aggro ranges in mind. After a while you can run pretty much run through the mobs without having to skim buildings. After killing Banshee Boss, run down. Watch out for gargoyles in the hallway, and chances are that getting from the Banshee boss to the Necromancer boss, you will have to kill a handful of mobs.
After all of this, run into the Slaughterhouse. When you see the courtyard full of Aboms, round them up from left to right, damaging them along the way with any attacks you can use while moving. After you have every single Abom grouped, run back to the steps of the building where Rivendare is. Eliminate the Aboms, and as soon as they are dead, Rammstein opens the door. Don't let him come out, instead run inside the building with him and finish him off. Same with the skeleton guards, after Rammstein is killed.
Effectively, this skips the scripted sequence when you have to wait for the doors to open, and shaves quite a few minutes off your time. Go inside, loot Rivendare, don't cry, and reset.
I did this with my 80 ret pally, it was a cake walk, and I rarely went over 4 minutes total for the entire length of the mount run.
Good luck!
** After reading through other posts, I can affirm that it is definitely time well spent getting the mount. If anything, memories and flash backs of all my time in Strat only make the mount that much better, even if I have been seeing it more and more often on my server. In my opinion, this is one of the few things in WoW or any video that you can let yourself be proud of.

I farmed this mount on my DeathKnight and got it after 31 runs, I considered myself verry fortunate. Now I actually see how fortunate I was. I'm trying to get it on my paladin and I've done near 50 runs already and no drop.
I'm hoping I'll be a bitt more fortunate then the people saying they have been there hundreds of times.
P.S. I'll make sure to come here and bragg a bitt if I get it :-)

A paladin's guide to the Baron Mount
This is a guide for all of you new players out there that would like to get the Baron mount, and to old players that never gave it a shot and would like to get it.
The whole place can be done in less then 10 minutes. Around 5 minutes if you ignore all drops and simply kill and run.
Here are the steps:
1.) Enter the instance (No really?)
2.) Skip the first 3 packs by going around them on the left side, once you get to the gate, just hug the wall and the pack guarding it should not aggro.
3.) Open the two gates, hear *read* the Baron's speech and keep moving. You don't need to kill any mobs, simply go between them to the Banshee boss, there will be one patrolling gargoyle comming your way, simply hug the right wall.
4.) The most annoying thing in there are the patrolling gargoyles. My advice is to stop and let them pass when you see them. Not only because they will aggro more mobs if they attack you, but also since SoC is no longer Seal of Casino, but more like a Seal of Cleave, if you have it on and hit them, you risk %^&*ing off more mobs. And that's a waste of time.
5.) The boss is easy to kill, go figure, of course it is seeing as it's level 59. In this case, you are the boss and she's a lowbie trying to solo you.
6.) Clearing the Acolytes. The best way I found to do that was to kill the first one, gather the remaining four and blast them with a Divine Storm. You can jump in the water between the one in the middle and the two on one side and blast them with a Storm then with SoC on, oneshot the remaining two aswell.
7.) Upon exiting the zigurat, head right. As you to towards the ally, jump over the boxes. I'd advise jumping over the far left one, as you are less likely to teigger a box trap, wich also triggers more mobs if it contains maggots or rats. And as stated before, that's a waste of time.
8.) In the alley there is an alcove that can be used to avoid any patrolling gargoyles.
9.) Again, just run through the mobs, up the stairs. If the 3 mobs have no skeletons summoned, or only have one up, you can blast them all down with a single Storm. If there is more then one skeleton up, it will require one more hit.
10.) Boss, easy, as always, enter and repeate step 6.
11.) Now we go to the Spider „Boss“, funny calling any of theese things bosses at this point, but there you go. You head straight towards the fountain and do a bitt of slalom, the side depends on where the mobs are positioned, but there should always be a safe path.
12.) Bug *trap*. Big deal, just hit consecrate and go get yourself a sandwitch. Not because it takes long to kill them, but because Blizzard obviously didn't expect anyone killing those things that fast so you will have to wait a bitt for the gates to open.
13.) Straight toward the *boss*, kill him, get inside, again, repeat step 6. And head back the way you came from. One thing. Don't take too long making that sandwitch because once I actually did go get something to eat and had to repeat the trap and the wait for the damn gates to open. No need to sprint, but don't drag your feet either, we are trying to save time here, right?
14.) While going towards the Slaughter Square, the safest thing to do is head back to the fountain, I found it to be a safe spot, and just wait for a path to clear. To anyone that played Commandos: Behind Enemy Lines or Beyond the Call of Duty, this is going to start feeling very farmiliar
15.) Once you are inside the Slaughter square, trust me, you don't want to kill them one by one. That will take WAY too much time. Just run around, hitting Judgments and Exorcisms (when they can be cast instantly), and hit Storms whenever you can. Once you have them all on you, position yourself in front of the door to the Slaughterhouse and Consecrate, Divine Storm, Holy Wrath them all down.
16.) The gate will open, run inside and fight Ramstein in the Slaughterhouse. After you kill him, you will need to kill the 5 skeleton pack in order to get the doors to the Baron to open.
17.) Obviously, kill the Baron, some of you will be able to do enough damage to him to get him down before he even tries to summon his skeletal friends, for those of you that don't, Consecrate will bring them all down in a matter of seconds.
18.) Now, if you, like me, as I was writing this, don't get the mount, and need to go again, you need to head out right away. Because the undead zerg might stroll out of the Slaughter Square while you are bashing your keyboard because you didn't get the mount after two thousand runs. If they do, as soon as you come out they will turn around and head towards you. They are not a problem, they can be killed in 3 seconds with a single consecrate. The problem is that there is a chance they bring half the damn instance with them. And as we agreed before, that is just a waste of time.
19.) Running out is simple. All you ahve to aviod are the spiders wich have a nasty habbit of throwing web under your feet wich also silences you. Even if you go around them and don't aggro any, they will aggro simply from other mobs. No worries, we have 3 tools to deal with that, if you are a human, you have the racial, and if you are not, you still have two tools, Hand of Freedom, and the ever so hated Divine Shield aka the bubble. Now when and if you activate it, don't HS due to a force of habbit, keep running :-).
If you decide to loot the mobs you have killed, you might end up with a load of Runecloth and some nice blues to vendor or AH to make up for repair expences (yes, there will be some) but you will loose time. If you decide just to kill and run, you will go a lot faster, but will end up loosing some money. I started out looting everything I killed, but after run #40, I decided to can it.
Ok, we are done.
Now before you start flaming me, saying: „What, you think you are imba because you can solo Stratholme?“. No, I don't, I've just been there so many times I've gotten a hang of it and think I've found the fastest way to do it. If some of you think something can be done faster, by all means, I urge you to fill me and the rest of the people reading in.
P.S. Watch out for the „The Living are here!“ bastards, once they spot you, you will definetly loose some time, but I've found no way of avoiding that.
Right, that would be it, I wish you lots of luck in farming the mount, and if you do get it, for God's sake, don't post it here, those of us that are still farming don't want to know :-D. Kidding.

You obviously didn't read my post clearly.
With each individual event (i.e., trip in to the instance), your odds are STILL only 1% for THAT ENCOUNTER/EVENT.
Your collective probability of seeing it after X number of runs INCREASES, BUT there is nothing that changes that you will EVER get that 1% on ANY INDIVIDUAL EVENT.
It's simply an
expectation
.
You could run it a million times and never see it. Again, it is SIMPLY another try to roll that 01 out of 100.

..but the chance of not rolling a 6 will decrease every time you not roll a six.
Wrong. The chance of not rolling a 6 will always be 5/6. Always. That falls under the Gambler's Fallacy, which someone linked above. I may PARTIALLY agree with you on the rest...but still...random loot is random. That is all we are able to say on it. Theorycraft, number crunch, even finding patterns, maybe. But say that it can drop in the first 500 runs even with the new drop rate...we just cannot say that.
Because random is random is random is random.
Rolling a six with the dice is roughly 16.5/100 (1/6 * 16.5 = 16.5/99, to be exact).
It's 1/6. Period. 16.666/100 or 16.666% repeating is the same thing as 1/6, not 16.5. 1/3 is 33.333% so half of it - 1/6 - would be 16.666666 repeating.
Also, probability does not work in 500 runs / 16.666 is ~ 30 so its the same chance.
The chance in getting 6 in 30 rolls once and only once is a 16.666% chance for ONE SINGLE roll. However, every other roll suffers from the OPPOSITE, meaning every other roll would have an 83.333% chance of NOT rolling a 6. Again, 5/6.
In 30 rolls, you have 6 possibilities per roll (1-6). That is a LOT of dice rolls. Get a 6 on the first roll, then no more 6's, that has 29*5 paths you need to look at. But what if you don't get 6 on the first one? That means you have 30 spots where you can roll a 6, and have no other 6's. that is
30*29*5 (4350)
30 times 5^29 paths. And that is JUST the permutations where you get your roll...the chances of NOT getting your roll are all other permutations, which the
4350
paths above is assuming you just get one 6, there is 6^30 paths...which is 221073919720733357899776 paths.
That is a ((30 X 5^29)/6^30) = 2.5% chance of occurring. Don't compare apples to oranges.
The chance of getting one 6 in thirty rolls is therefore about equal to getting the mount on your second run. Probability works the opposite of how you mention it. More chances at the mount increases the chance at winning it, but more dice lowers the chance you will get the specified order.

This instance is an absolute cakewalk for Level 80 Retribution Paladins I've got an average iLvl of 241 and can do a clear to and including Baron (from the Service Gate) in 10 minutes flat - give or take a minute or two if I accidentally aggro some mobs along the way.
Having said that, this doesn't change my luck. Been farming for a good two weeks now and have still seen nothing. A fellow guildie has been doing the same and he got his after only 9 kills.
GL everyone.
edit: I should add that I loot
everything
I kill. Pristine Black Diamonds sell for 150g~ each on my server.

I happen to get this( on my first try btw Check Raifuujin -shandris, i got the baron mount same day i got my achievment for finishing the dungeon) but it just doesn't have the novelty that the zg tiger does for a tauren. No one notices that I am riding it because it shares the UD mount model. They just assume i am exhalted with UC and never bother to notice that the color is not one that is sold by the UC mount vendors. It just isnt worth the effort to farm this on horde side.

The "after 99 runs you have had a bla bla chance of seeing this drop" calculations are absolute bollocks.
It's RNG (Random Number Generation). You can see it 3 times in a row the first time you go in there, you may not see it
ever
. Plain and simple.

I have farmed this mount for 3 of my toons. I agree with the posters here that you have to look at the runs as farming in general. There is a bit of gold to be made from the disenchants and the BoE items suchas the Orb of Deception which sells on my server for around 7-800g. You also get lots of runecloth.
My drop schedule was as follows:
Less than 350 runs to get my 3 mounts so almost 1/100.
1st drop = 37th run
2nd drop = 333rd run
3rd drop - 338th run.
As you can see, it is completely random. The mount is a bit of a status symbol, but not as much as it was before they "increased" the drop rate to 1%. My thrid mount completely surprised me. Now, for the record, I am NOT going to farm this item any more, or any other "rare" drop. If it happens, so be it.
Have fun all.

I'm a level 80 DK tank. I use the service entrance to go in, skip all of the zombies and kill Nerub'enkan first. Then I go back to the baroness and kill her, then i kill Maleki and go into slaughter square. Almost every time i run it i am able to avoid every add. I pull all the abominations then go into rivendares building before ramstein leaves it. I kill him, drop a death and decay, and all the elite skeletons die. This way i don't have to fight the huge wave of non elite mobs. I go into rivendares room and just pwn him. when he summons skeletons i use blood boil and they all die. I can do a run in 6-7 minutes usually. over 50 kills and still no mount but im hoping to get it soon

i killed riven-whats-his-name around 50 times. hopefully less then that sum..
any who, one day my friend showed me his cool mount and said it had "like a 5% drop rate." so my compulsive gambler gene kicked in and i hounded the damnable thing for... way to long.
so i finally researched it... and if i had known it was 1 in a 100. i would have quit after five runs.
logically, you probably would see this drop in 5 or 6 hundred runs. but at ten minutes a run... there are far more valuable things to acquire and to be honest, cooler mounts to find. mounts people wont confuse with a run of the mill undead pony.
a reasonable person would understand this is a lotto ticket. reasonable people see the 10 mil jack pot, buy one ticket and hope for the best. they don't buy hundreds and form lottery pools with there co workers... they take there one shot and go on with there lives.
this is were i and others have failed to be reasonable or even sane. we tried to believe that just one more go would be the one. *sigh*
so to the players that read the odds printed above, know that they were printed by a nerd who enjoys the idea that some silly naive noobs(new+%^&*s=sad) would find hope in the mathematical-madness and waste away a portion of there short lives.
time is money. try not to forget that.

gimmewowhead:
WOW This just dropped for me AGAIN! On my 1st run on my newly dinged Pally, the mount dropped! I had posted about this earlier on my warlock. What are the chances that it drops on 2 toons, both on their 1st runs! Has the Droprate been significantly raised, or am i just uber lucky?
Dear Sir and or Ma'am
I am reluctant to declare
Shenanigans
on you but have done so in the following:
You have not posted "Wow-armory" information clearly stating the amount of runs you have done in order to obtain said Uber Awesome Rare Mount on either of your claimed characters with "uber lucky" ness.
While I highly doubt you would get it on your first try on
two
different toons the fact remains it is possible. But if it is indeed possible then you can prove it. Since you appearently cannot prove it (or has yet to do so) please stop your bragging (whether fake or true) about how lucky you are or how it dropped and all that useless information.
No one on wowhead (other than you of course) will care what so ever. We may say "congrats" or "I hate you so much!" but that does not mean we are showing our "caring side". Please be on your way.

got it on 81st kill, which may seem alot, but actually not quite. this is kinda lucky. although a guy i know ingame got it right on 30th kill. random is random, what you gonna do. this is easy to farm as 80, of course, you can skip all the trash (except abominations, 3 minibosses and ziggurat cultists) even without stealth. it's still good mount even with the buffed droprate, but there are more and more people riding it every day now it seems. kinda wish it looked a bit different than just blue recolor of undead skeletal warhorse mount.

I've got mine after one day of trying on the last run... less than 10 boss kills I think. At least once I had some luck
:)
With the acception of spitting in everyone who has ran this over 300 times in the face, no one really cares if you got it on the 1st or the 10th or the 1000th run. Again - for future reference - Keep the comments to shameless statistic qoutes that just make most of us cry on our pillows on late nights after seeing Bonescraper and Magister leggings drop over and over. :)

I read somewhere that posting here seemed to do the trick and someone's mount finally dropped after a lot of runs. I'm coming up on 260 and I'm willing to take anything I can get so here goes. :)
(Don't worry, it's valid info too)
*********
Regarding: Instance Lockout After 5 Entries Within An Hour
I have never read this explained precisely and I have searched a number of times and asked people and they didn't know. I didn't see this anywhere in this item's comments, but if it is, feel free to down rate and link to the comment, or simply link if it is explained better elsewhere.
The first thing to understand is, when you first enter the first instance, that is not the time mark of most importance. It is when you leave that instance for the
last time
that the 1 hour timer for that instance begins to run off.
Ex.) If you leave Instance1 at 00:10 and run 4 more times at 10 minutes each, you will exit the last instance at 00:50 and have 20 minutes to wait until you can do another one.
The other thing to worry about if you are trying to get back in there and do 5 more runs ASAP is not catching up with your other old instance "cooldowns." Following our previous example, if you got back in there at 01:10 when Instance1's cooldown finally expired, and you did that run in 8 minutes, you would then have to wait 2 minutes to have another free instance spot.
So a shorthand version:
Entered Instance1: 00:00, Instance1 cooldown starts upon exiting
Exited Instance1: 00:10, Instance1 expires at 01:10
Exited Instance2: 00:20, Instance2 expires at 01:20
Exited Instance3: 00:30, Instance3 expires at 01:30
Exited Instance4: 00:40, Instance4 expires at 01:40
Exited Instance5: 00:50, Instance5 expires at 01:50
>>20 minute break (until first cooldown expires)
Entered Instance6: 01:10, Instance6 cooldown starts upon exiting
Exited Instance6: 01:18, Instance6 expires at 02:18
Instance2 cooldown remaining: 2 minutes. Cannot enter another instance
Entered Instance7: 01:20, Instance7 cooldown starts upon exiting
and so on...
So my advice is to wait 30 minutes after you leave Instance5 so that you don't get caught in a situation like finishing Instance6 too fast and catching up with Instance2's cooldown. To me, that situation is really annoying.
Pro Tip: If you plan to stay online and then do 5 more runs ASAP, be sure you still reset instances after you leave Instance5. I forgot one time and when I got back there, I walked back into Instance5 which resets its cooldown.
I've run the tests to prove this several times (hey gotta find something to do when you get up to 250+ runs!) in case anyone doesn't believe me.
Hope this helps and good luck!

If you're farming this mount and you're an engineer, you can speed up your run slightly by using your nitro boosts before the gates where you get swarmed by bugs.
You can race trough the passage before the gates close and most of the bugs despawn for some reason if you decide to go back.

I was here for 2 reasons, I wanted to get Exalted with Argent Dawn as well as get the mount, if I didnt get the mount I felt it wasnt a waste of time because I was still getting rep, I got the mount last night, im not sure how many tries it took, around 10 or so, I felt slightly dissapointed in a way because now I dont think I can be bothered running it anymore to get Exalted...it was the mount that was keeping me going.

When farming the Deathcharger, it is most convenient to port to the graveyard and run back to the start, rather than running all the way back through the instance, after killing the Baron.
Invite a random person to a group, then immediately hit the following macro (you need not wait for them to accept the invite, they can even be AFK):
/script LeaveParty();
This will cause the one minute "not in this group" timer to begin, porting you to the graveyard, and saving you the trouble of running back. On the ride back, if you have a Traveler's Mammoth, you can vendor whatever drops you looted while enroute, minimizing downtime - you are moving while vendoring.

I've went there many times and no luck after all those runs... ;( but well, it's a random drop after all so sooner or later it can drop.
Also if you're farming this mount too, you'll see that this is a great place to farm your rep with
Argent Dawn
, which can be an extra incentive.

Dropped after 197 dreadful run , 7 on my warrior alt and 192 on my mage.
Don't give up on this thing , i've even had Mass of McGowan drop from Rivendare, which is a world-drop BoE with extremly low chances and not this mount , but i got it after 2 runs of the BoE drop.
Don't give up , this mount is your light at the end of the dark tunnel.

I would like to add that this mount still in fact drops as of patch 3.3.3
wowwiki.com/ has stated that this mount is no longer available to players and i have gotten this mount as of 5/23/10
i was rather lucky for i received it on my 6th or 7th run.
My
advise
Don'ts:
1. Don't be going after the mount but the gold. (use Stratholme as a farming ground) it adds up nicely.
2. Don't try over and over and over convincing yourself that it will drop this time, (you will lose interest)
3. Put some music that you listen to in the background so you don't go crazy.
HAPPY HUNTING

Is it just me, or am I the only one who's concerned that this mount will no-longer be available when Cataclysm comes out?
Just a random thought... no rumor anywhere but the back of my head... but here's my thoughts...
1) Cataclysm comes out... many rumors that the Plaguelands (being the forefront of the war against the Scourge) will change dramatically if not be cleansed thoroughly because by time-line the Lich King is dead and the war over.
2) If the Plaguelands get cleansed... does this mean they'll remove Stratholme... and in-turn, the Baron and the chance for this mount to drop vanishes forever?
I dunno... just a random thought by me... not heard this anywhere reliable (but it seems reasonable in my mind). In any case, i'm going to farm the shizzle out of this mount before Cataclysm comes out, just in case!

Alright so been farming this mount for a few days already 55 kills in and no signs of anything dammit. I have got the runs down to a bit over 8 mins thats from start and back to the entrance again and the problem with this is the crappy 5 instances in an hour rule so i have to wait for a bit under 20 mins to keep farming. It is getting very annoying I wish i could just keep going without having to wait for so long. I will keep going though and hope for the best and good luck to everyone with trying to get this. DAMN YOU BLIZZ and your STUPID 5 INSTANCE RULE!
p.s I just got this friggen mount on my 98th attempt and god i am happy! to everyone out there keep at it and you will get it. OMG this is the best feeling because i never thought i would get it. Keep the music playing and grind your way through people and you will get it i gaurantee. Remember the more you do it the odds of probability are in your favour!

Got this mount just this morning on my 48th kill.
Which is kinda lot, considering I got it on 10th kill (!) on my pally, when pally was my main character :)
(this is a joke ofc, considering the amount of runs ppl actually do to get this mount)
Advice I can give to all of u farming this mount is
don't give up
!
I was killing Rivendare 5 times a day, thought it will become too boring if I kill him more then that.
Also I didn't have to wait so that instance becomes resetable again when I was killing him 5 times a day.
I thought of it like a daily, which takes about 45min.
Here is the
MAP
I was using to kill Baron. Took me about 8-9min for kill and running back to entrance.
I wasn't looting anything, even Baron's blues.
I didn't want to loose time on looting, was focused only on mount!
I lost some money like that but saved nerves and time for other things in game.
Anyway, I'm happy owner of this imba mount now :)
Paired with
Bloodbathed Frostbrood Vanquisher
that I got yesterday, I got both undead mounts I desired to ride and I don't think I'll replace them ever.
GL to anyone farming this mount and remember -
DON'T GIVE UP
!
It will drop eventually.

Wondering how long it takes average for someone to clear all the way to Baron and run back? It's about 5-7 minutes for me to get to Baron and then another 5 minutes to log out and log back in when I am in the begining of the instance. Wonder if running back will be faster.

you can kill Magistrate Barthilas just as you open the gate, you just have to aggro him before he goes into the other gate.
takes a lil time off from farming.
On one run I hit him right as he disappears, when i opened the game, he brought half the instance with him.
I did around 10+ runs.

(80 ret pally solo farming)
Raptor mount: 30something zg runs, still no tiger :(
Thunderfury: Almost 2 years after first binding dropped.
Deathcharger: 88 runs
Farming for the Deathcharger is a great way for farming gold. In the 88 runs I've made about 4k gold just from vendoring/selling runecloth. Make sure if you plan on farming, empty your bags. Keep at it folks!

Heres a little strategy as to farming this mount (requires 3 60+ characters, including the one you want the mount with)
Step 1. Place yourself in front of eastwell gate
Step 2. Place both alts where the oozes are at in Eastern Plagelands (those ditches)
Step 3. Take your main and get him to Baron Rivendare and kill him
Step 4. After he is dead, stay there and logout
Step 5. Get on both of your alts and kill the oozes to farm for the disgusting oozeling pet.
Step 6. Once done clearing one wave, get back on your main, you will be teleported to the front of the gate
Step 7. Reset instance
Step 8. Repeat Steps 3-8.
Im doin that right now, It's only because I need both the mount and the oozeling pet.

I started running this at lvl 78, a BM hunter. ran it 3 times a day(sometimes more) for about 4 months. i am now exautled(i never went into Strat before, never went to EPL in fact, as this is my first 80) I need this mount for the achievement to get my Albino drake, but i am not haveing any luck at all. i've farmed the oozling twice, but not this guy once.
And the logging out to be at the front of the instance doesnt work anymore.

While I don't have my epic mount yet, I'll be getting one soon. Even if I did have it I would roll.
Sure I might not "need" it as much as someone who hasn't. But why should I miss out on this if I spent 800+g of my own money getting my mount? If someone without a mount loses a roll against someone who does, how is it any different? They're going to have to pay for their mount like everyone else which they would have done anyway.
Besides, I'd probably offer 3000g to the roll winner to pass it to me instead if it dropped on a run I was on.
If you're going to be giving it to the person with the greatest need, do you do this for all drops? If two players want a drop... for example, a 50dps weapon that is an upgrade for them. One player currently has a 40dps weapon, and the other has a 45dps weapon. Are you going to automatically give it to the person who needs the upgrade more?
This mount may be the same speed as other epics, but I consider it an upgrade. This item doesn't effect a character, it doesn't make you better, doesn't make you stronger. So why should I pass so someone else can get it?

"You only prove what I have been saying, that you are rolling purely for your own greed, and not out of necessity."
I was just having a discussion about this recently My opinion is that, if someone wants an epic mount they can get 900g with solo play. If an epic is not important to them, or if they're too lazy to farm the gold, why should they get a higher priority than someone that isn't too lazy?
It has the same stats as any epic, but it is not the same. If it were possible, it would sell for > 900g, which indicates it's not even close to the same as a standard epic. I could see someone actually deleting their own epic just to roll on this as an upgrade.
It seems to me that claiming only upgrades can roll is protecting the lazy and undeserving. Everyone should be able to roll.

1) Tauren can ride it.
2) No rep req. (Argent Dawn or otherwise)
3) It's a random drop. R-A-N-D-O-M.
4) I got this mount in March 2005 in a *pickup* group on Proudmoore. I was later among the people who volunteered to be transferred by Blizzard to Dragonblight because Proudmoore was a fustercluck of lag. I am there now and so is my Deathcharger. :)
5) This mount dropped off the Baron. In my group: Undeadfish rolled a 95 (still hear about this every now and then). I rolled a 98. The master looter did not ninja - unfortunately I cannot remember his name...class act.
6) This mount is no faster than a regular epic mount.
7) You *cannot* attack from this mount.
8) The most common comments I receive? "That poor horse." "You're going to kill it." "It looks hungry." "Where'd you get that?"
9) I ride my non-epic mount 90% of the time so I can simply play the game in peace. Cry for me. Haha. Some day I'll have to try out that whole "buying an epic mount" thing.
10) Here is me on my mount. No Photoshop necessary.

Hope this helps. :). Been meaning to chime in on this debate for a while, but never got around to it. There are many Allied to be crushed, you know.
EDIT: Even though, at the time, all of us who rolled on it (read: everyone present) did not have epic mounts, I still believe that this is an item of such caliber that it should be rolled on EVERY TIME by EVERYBODY who has a chance - whether they have an epic or not. This nonsense that somebody who already busted their hump to by a "regular" epic should opt out is bull.
EDIT2: Making it clear that I transferred chars from one server to another...did not leave one server and start fresh on another.

To put to bed other rumors-
not a one of us was Exalted with AD (the highest was Revered).
ALso as I stated we did it with a 10-man (mixed levels from 51 through 60.)"
I would love some factual information about the rumored drop rate increase when party members are Exaulted. If someone could post a link that would be great.

A quote from the CM, Fangtooth:
"The Deathcharger's Reigns are a very rare drop. Any rumors you have heard about it are just that; rumors. The only requirement is "convincing" the Baron to hand them over to you. I must warn you though, that the Baron is very stubborn, and you may have to defeat him in battle many, many, many times before he hands them over."
I hope this helps.

Part 2 from Raygar
Ok continuing my last post about farming for the mount its time for the next part. Keep in mind this was written by me and my methods with my gear ( Level 70 beast master hunter with all epics.
Once you slip your way to the Baroness, it should be cake. This is by far one of the easiest bosses to solo, provided your gear is good.
Baroness Anastari :
1. Uses shadow attacks at range and curses you.
2. Sometimes depending on how you assault her will get the stupid hair and run into the street and agro the crap on the side.
3. CC doesnt work to my knowledge, however Freezing Trap from hunters DOES work as I accidentally found out one day.
4. If you use ANY other form of help except yourself ( friends helping, minions, pets, trinket summon adds) Theres a chance someone will get mind controlled. This prolongs the fight and sometimes ends up bad. You get Mind controlled for 2 mins unless your partner beats you down which is hard if you already have them outgeared. You get 100% increased damage to. So soloing this boss means no pet or anything else. I even once got Mind controlled from using a snake trap.
What to do :
If you are a hunter or caster get to your minimum range ( hunters ) and casters stay out of melee range and blast away. If you start losing too much health time a bandage between her casts. Theres a good chance you will resist the spell anyway due to your level.
After you drop her go in and clear out the Ziggaraut and proceed to the next part of the instance.
Now down the street onto Maleki the Palid is a tricky route. What I did was as you face down the street towards the next boss, hug the wall on the right until your shoulder scrapes it. You will be dangerously close to the 3 ghouls. Keep in mind Gargoyles are still patting up and down the street.
Its hard at first but as a 70 you can do it. Sometimes you will accidentally pull. For rogues and hunters just vanish or feign death out if you pull. Any other class will have to fight. If you want to be on the safe side kill these mobs before proceeding. I never had to cause of class ability.
Note invisible potions and stealth are not a good idea here unless you have Master of Deception for rogues. The ghouls see invisible and stealthed things.
Down the alley way of the street here there is a safe nook a 70 can stand in and watch for pats. Use this wisely. Its a good break spot especially if you had to fight the mobs a moment ago. Once you are ready to go take the ghoul on the right ( the single one ) and take him out. Make sure you zerg it quickly or pull it to the side of wall where he originally starts in case a pat comes by.
Rockwing Gargoyles are melee attackers
Rockwing Screechers are casters that will FEAR you.
Once you dispatch the single ghoul make your to the Maleki the Palid.
I will continue my article for Maleki soon!

Part 4
Hey once again this is Raygar from Eredar contiuing my formula for farming the mount.
Once you get here its actually quite easy provided your gear is good and you dont pull too many fat boys.
The Gauntlet :
Most 70s except prot specced players should be able to zerg these down pretty quickly. For prot fight all mobs in a zone of your choice , I would pick the back of the gate once it closes.
This event starts when you pull the first Abomination. The gate behind you closes and its a Gauntlet. Abominations will continue to file in until all dead. Once you thin their numbers down a few remain in the courtyard to the barons room.
Theres two types of Abominations here.
1 is a darker color and spits poison and sometimes hits you with slowing poison the other type spits out lil slime adds and when it dies releases 5 slime adds. Dont underestimate the slimes they actually can hurt if you dont take em out quick enough.
Casters MAY have mana problems if the pace gets too high so be sure to drink after every 1 or 2 fights.
After you defeat all the abominations the boss of them , Rammstein comes out.
Rammstein the Gorger :
1. Hits very hard for his level
2. Can be stunned but not incapacitated or slowed
3. Has a knock back ability
After words the far gate on the side wall opens and a horde of easy to kill mobs come out. Keep in mind they dont hit hard and have alot of hp but theres ALOT of them.
Whatever aoe ability your class has here its time to break it out. In my case I used exploding trap and the various crates of holy water lying around the courtyard. Safe boxes are marked with a Red Cross. Others are sometimes safe but i didnt bother with them. Collect the water from the 3 red cross boxes in the instance should be enough. You can choose to loot the boxes before or after the hordes of mobs that rush out.
After this and at a certain time the Barons Black Guard come out. These are 5 elite skeletal warriors. Not too hard to kill at 70 but hit a lil hard compared to their level too. Warriors and paladins and druids might fall asleep when they are tankin em.
I used frost traps and snake traps here.
Finally the moment you all been waiting for is next. Ill keep you posted!
To be contuned.

First of all Grats to all people that have recently gotten this drop, and to the nice guy Thetrain from Epic above. Yes niceness does payoff and hes lucky to have a guild that would PASS on this.
Finally,
Part 5 : Baron Rivendare
As of this post I havnt ran baron since 2.3 came out but I am gonna try it. I respeced aim shot for pvp and lost a lil bit in my survival tree. Most Noteably the Clever Traps talent so I dont know how effective my traps are until I get back in there :P.
As you enter make sure you have pets on PASSIVE or else the shadow damage you take from entering barons room will cause your pet to attack and you may not be ready for the fight.
Make your way into the barons room and head to the left ( or right, most go left ) to the pile of bones in the back of the room. If you are takin ticks of shadow damage you are too close to the baron. This is prefight.
Engage : I dont know what a mage can do here to be honest. They probably have the most challenge as they have to do the dance games.
Melee of course will be on him takin shadow damage as well.
For me I pre set an explosive trap just to the left of the baron. Waited for trap to cool down then engaged.
Misdirected the pet , hit my AP trinket and hit Bestial Wrath. Once pet engaged melee on the baron I opened fire with all cool downs.
The first wave of skeletons that come head for the pet and hit the exploding trap which naturally brought them right to me into ANOTHER exploding trap which took em out.
Every few seconds I used mend pet. The next wave of skeletons that come usually spawn and run right at me now and I throw holy water on em.
Baron is pretty low hp at this time and mostly I took him down. Should a third wave or so come out I would alternate with holy water and exploding trap.
Baron Rivendare :
1. Does decent damage for his level.
2. Has an unholy aura that AOE damages with shadow damage.
3. Summons adds which fight for him and attack you / pet until he casts Death Pact on them which gives him life back for each skeleton sacked depending on its remaining health
4. Throws 1k+ Shadow Bolts
5. Hits pet / you with Mortal Strike
The biggest trick to this boss is gettin the skeletons down ASAP.
Good luck to all farming for it and keep trying!
Post Note : Im actually gonna go back in and farm the place some more for the Epic 2 Handed Sword :P just to have it.

This is Raygar from Eredar server. Continuing my tale of the sword baron drops to go with the mount just cause :D.
So i go to farm the baron sword since I got the mount and in an incredible stroke of luck i got the Baron Mount AGAIN! LOL Merry Christmas.
You can see me looting the mount and holding it AND the original mount in my bag...:P
http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x177/vamtheanomaly/WoWScrnShot_122407_134012.jpg
Only thing that sucked was I was solo and cant carry two of them so I had to leave it lying on the baron haha....I guess that is Baron Rivendare's revenge, ironic.

PoSSSSSSSSS
So I've started up again
and on run 336
the one that I just finished...
The runeblade dropped.
When I saw it, I was like, WHERE THE HELL HAVE YOU BEEN
AND WHY CAN'T I RIDE YOU
I want to just stick it up the WAH and just swing it at people
in my frusteration.
I'm a druid.
We can use daggers for some reason, but not swords.
I mean, what, would we pick up a sword and have it burn us?
Are Swords the Cat nip of druids?
Damn it.
Also, to all you asses who keep saying "the droprate is low, it'll never drop," WE GET IT. We're not doing this because we think it'll drop every time. We're gambling our time, we're playing the shots, So EFF you asses who are negative to us people who partake in the gambling of the Baron.
I can't wait for the day to link my mount in guild, link it to the haters, the disbelievers, and my guild. At this point, it is no longer a mount, but a badge.
A badge of insanity.
By the way, it still drops, I message a GM.
The Argent Dawn doesn't effect it.
It's random.
The Droprate is low.
You need decent gear to solo this.
There's no way you can trick the loot system.
Pick up enchanting if you're gonna do the full monty. Don't be like "OH BUT I'VE WORKED SO HARD LEVELING UP THIS PROFFESION"
I did the math. In the runs I did BEFORE I did enchanting, I lost out on roughly 10k gold. If I had done enchanting, I'd be that much richer. And you can be even richer depending on the server. So, stop being an ass, and power level Enchanting to 225. How sweet will it be to re-level, say, mining, but this time on the RAREST item in the game.
And finally, DO NOT GIVE UP. Do not give in to the negative comments, because if you do this, you will be slammed with ONLY that. I'm not saying you will get the mount, but just don't give up.
There's a level of insanity you go through though.
From 70-90, you want to stop. You hate the game, you hate your life, you want to jump off a bridge and ride a pegasus in the after life.
From run 190-199 You're depressed and sad.
Run 200-220, each run is tense (If you've followed the legacy of the fine Baron Raygar)
Run 280-300, you're in shock that you're still doing it.
Somewhere along that line of runs, something clicks. Once you learn the instance, all the tricks of the trade, you find yourself really enjoying running it. Like, during my break period, I was just running around on the Orgrimmar bank, wasting time. What I could have been doing in that time is making a bunch of money, shooting towards the mount, and listening to say, a radio show.
Speaking of which, MAKE A PLAYLIST OF THE SONGS YOU LIKE.
This will be one of the LIFEBLOODS of you running this instance.
For about 200 runs I did catchy music.
For the next 50, I found some catchy rap.
Then, for the next 50 or more, I've been listening to the Opie and Anthony show.
And it just increases the experience of running this instance by that much.
I know my post is long, but it's been needed to be said. I hope all of you get this mount, because you've all worked for it.
But not the ninja's.
I hope you die alone and screaming.

The only sword I've gotten was on run 336.
I'm thinking/praying/hoping/pleading it drops on run 672, 336 runs after getting the sword.
Oh, let me tell you people something.
Never, ever think the horse will drop "this run."
Don't think it'll drop "the next run."
Don't say "I'm feeling it tonight."
Don't predict it'll drop before 300, or 600 runs.
It won't.
Ignore all superstitions. They only crush your hope more.
Just keep running it until you get it.
Because then, and only then, can you admit that the little bunny foot that somehow found it's way up your ass was the cause of the mount to drop.

June 11, 2008. (~00h:30m)
After 230 runs my Deathchargers Drops ! I'm really happy this night. I have to say thanks to this thread because many of those posts gave me power to don't give up. That was the phrase that was in my mind all the time: "dont' give up". Also have to say a thanks to my DE partner Heiler who did a lot of runs with me, including the one where it drops. I gave to him as a gift one of the orb of deceptions that i got in Strat.
Average Time: 20-23 min per run
Record Time: Me, Heiler and a hunter: 13 min
Gold: Around 15-20k (3 epics, 2 orbs of deception, tons of boe blues and DE stuff)
For those that will say that im an Undead and would be easier to buy a plain skelly horse i dont care. This is THE UNDEAD MOUNT and i dream with it since my first day in wow.

Hello my fellow Asylum Escapees,
This is going to be a somber post since it's going to be my last one ever and- OH WHAT THE HELL
CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL WHO HAVE GOTTEN THE MOUNT IN THE PAST FEW DAYS!
Shadowsnake, I highly congratulate you on your success. When I read your post just last night, I pounded my fist and went "YES!" for you. No one could see it except myself, but I hope you felt me.
So before I talk all about me, lets talk about the drop rate increase. For some reason, people think that that is bad. Let me tell you, ITS NOT BAD AT ALL. I would not wish the grind that I went through on anyone. It wasn't fun, it wasn't exciting, it was vigorous and hard and long and depressing. To all those who are saying that the increase was a slap in the face, you obviously haven't done Stratholme very much. This is like a cold iccee on a summer's day! Now that it dropped for me, I never, ever, EVER have to step into that crazy place again.
It's over.
However, all the more reason for YOU, who ever is reading this, to go farm it! Sure the droprate has been increased, but why not go experiance one of the many secret phenomena that can be found in WoW? And, get a cool looking horse to boot!
--
But now, friends, it's over. Finally, after a year of farming and 10 months of talking with all the amazing people I've met through thottbot.
From the Mannoroth people, I'd like to thank Shikia for all the runs he did with me, Solaeran for all the runs he did with me, Zhouu for all the runs he did with me, Dysfunction for all the runs he did with me, Sicc for a couple runs he did with me, the random puggers of Undeadx, that guy with the warglaive, thanks for doing those couple runs with me.
And from the Thottbot Asylum, I'd like to thank each and every one of you for posting your stories and supporting me and inspiring me through my toughest of times. I have read each and every post on this forum, and each one was thought over. I wish I could all take you out to dinner and we could talk about our crazy farming experience.
It has been a pleasure getting to know all of you, and I will never forget our crazy antics. Sure the baron mount has been increased, but the memories forged through our crazy little experiances are unique, and above all, the most cherished.
Thank you all,
Cacti from Mannororth-US.
Final run count: 1471

So here's my long, long story of baron mount farming, hoping to get it soon, and posting here, again, prolly my 4th or 5th post, for luck. It didn't work previously. But here goes:
I have started playing my Night Elf druid long long ago before most of the nowaday players didn't even start. It was November 2005, after playing a Tauren hunter from start of WoW till then. I got bored of tauren and hunter was too easy, I wanted something diffrent. So I rolled alliance. In mid-February, I had dinged 60.
Back then, mounts were hard to get, and the problem of who sees this or the zulian tigers passes to the ones without mount existed, but I was already working on my epic mount, and because I wanted to do more than your average person, I was aiming for the Stormwind horse. So I shared my time between getting the Wildheart gear, only semi-feral gear out there in that day apart from the PvP sets, and getting runecloth for Stormwind. By doing Baron runs, I filled both. I had started running Baron when I was nearly friendly with Argent Dawn, as i used WPL to lvl 59-60.
Friendly -> Bit into Honored AD:
Took me 122 Baron runs, I had mobinfo back then, to get my Wildheart pants. Baron loved me a lot since then, clearly. Sometime in these runs I had a guy talk about baron's mythical mount, so I decided to check it out, and the moment I saw it, I wanted it.
Honored -> Honored, run 122 - ~150
I kept running Baron even after I got the pants, trying the 45 run and just going in for the runecloth. By this time I had already gotten my stormwind steed and was alternating between baron runs and Winterspring farming for the saber. Yes, I was a mount collector back when you got nothing except the need to buy more bank slots from it.
Honored -> Revered, run ~150 - ~170
By this time, Burning crusade kicked in, so we all leveled. Before you say that omg I only did 150 runs pre-bc, I had a life then, and finding 5 ppl to run Baron with and take me as feral druid was pain in the ahem.
Anyway, when I dinged 68, me and my boyfriend, holy paladin, wanted to see if we could manage this instance. With a lot of wipes, boredom, bit AD rep and no 45's, we managed 20 or 21 runs till dinged 70.
Gear break for 2 months, got part of my arena gear, some rep gear, some instance gear.
Revered -> Revered, run ~170 - ~190
When you hit revered, you get considerably less rep from mobs as a 60. The mobs were grey for me, I had dumped the AD trinket ages ago, somewhere after my 120th run, so the only rep I got from these runs were around 150 from bosses, 25 the 3 and 50 or 75 on baron, depending on what lvl he spawned. Me and my boyfriend ran this and we never managed 45 with my gear, so no rep from Ysilda.
Gear break for 2 months, arena season 1 became honor buyable, I finished getting it. No, I don't play hardcore, I didn't like arena and anyway at this time I had rerolled a draenei priest and a blood elf warlock and was only playing my druid for the baron horse.
Revered -> Exalted, strike 2, run ~190 - run ~600+
Since autumn/winter 2007 I kept running baron on a daily basis, got from bit into revered into fully exalted, my bf got from bit into honored to halway revered only from the rep you get from killing the 4 bosses. No stone turn ins. Nothing.
With average of 2 runs per day, as sometimes we only ran once, sometimes we ran 6 times in a row, I lived all my winter 2007-winter 2008 in baron runs. In time, we mastered the fastest route, fastest pull sequence, etc, so our runs dropped to 20 minutes from 1 hour. This way we managed more per day, after I had dinged exalted AD.
August 2008 - patch 3.0
I kept running baron, and when all the rumours that he will be taken out in wotlk struck in, I felt totally.. crap.. I can say I was about to go delete my druid and screw WoW. The wintersaber and rep mounts had become much easier to get something like 2 or 3 patches after I got them, so after having the honor of being the only one with Wintersaber and Stormwind horse as a night elf on my server, everyone started strolling around IF on one. And by this time, after running Strat for almost 3 years, getting that horse became a matter of me versus baron, having something special.. i left that behind long ago, now I just wanted the horse.
patch 3.0 - present
My boyfriend said he's bored of running baron with me, so after the droprate got buffed, I started soloing baron. only 30 runs so far, I concentrated more on my blood elf, and anyway, I doubt that if i didn't get it in 3 years, I'll miraculously get it now.
Anyway, trying it again today after maintenance.
Why?
-I've busted the myth where it says that if you do 45 it has 100%/10%/1% chance compared to .01% chance to drop. Most my runs have been 45 after I mastered it, nothing.
-I've busted the myth where it says that if you are AD exalted, the drop is 50%. I ran over 400 times after exalted, my baron activity increased with summer holidays, boredom and AD exalted, I think most my baron runs were after exalted, and nothing.
-I never tried the myth with counting. I never count. When I saw that baron took 122 runs to decide to give me one item that has 20% droprate, I decided I give up on counting runs at him. At some point I had mobinfo for it, but it always got reseted on patches.
-Number of runs? I don't know. Somewhere over 600 for sure. Somewhere over 1000? I don't know. Some were solo, some were with my boyfriend, some were with pugs at 60. I lost track. I never cared. I learnt that when you count for something, it takes longer. I just lived my life in Strat and hoped, helplessly.
-Gold? Hell yes. From baron runs, I paid my epic flying skill, enchants, a 29 twink's gear (around 500-600 gold), a 19's twink gear (around 400 gold), powerlvling jewelcrafting on my draenei priest (300-350 gems cost somewhere between 5 gold and 50 g on my server, go make the maths), powerlvling enchanting on my boyfriend's human mage (he was stuck at eternal essences and illusion dusts. A lot of them came from de'ing baron greens I sent to him, but also some I got from ah at 25 g / piece), buying 53 mounts before mount collecting was implemented in achievements, buying boe epics for my alts, buying Cenarion Hippogryph on my main and also getting from halway revered to exalted with 170 coilfang armaments, which go for 10-11 g on my server. I also paid one epic flying skill for my alt and 2 epic flying skills for my boyfriend's chars as a gift. How much would I say? over 25000 gold. And I'm not even an enchanter. I can imagine the profit with being one.
-Reputation? Ad was full, and I used all the runecloth to get 21k rep with Exodar, 9k rep with Ironforge. Rest runecloth went to AH. Ye, I even had extra, imagine that.
-Mount or runeblade? None. Nothing. Zero. But I won't give up. As i said, it's already a personal thing between me and baron.
-Most annoying part? seeing all the lucky kids that play gnomes stroll around on it saying OMG I GOT IT ON MY 2nD RUN HGASGSDGSA. Besides, the 2 people on my realm that had it pre-bc went like this: one quit, a dwarf hunter, and one sold his account, a human priest. Quite a tease.
-Nicest quote from people? 'If you keep trying, I'm sure one day you will be able to add that elusive steed as the centerpart of your collection' - a gamemaster, pre-bc.
-Worst quote from people? 'That mount is more important to you than me.' Yes, it was hard sometimes. really hard.. Specially with my luck.
-Most common quote from people? 'Omg Wind not baron again' - lot of guildmates / random mates over the 3 years.
-Most realistic quote? 'Dude, I quit wow 2 years ago and you were running baron. now i started again and you're still running baron. wtf?' - old guildmate
I only have 1 more myth to bust. See, in 2 years, I never managed to log on WoW and go baron first run anyone does after a server restart/maintenance. I either was busy with school, job, net down, didn't find people, was bored, couldnt be bothered, etc. Now, after today's maintenance, I'm going to try that out.
Maybe it'll drop.
Maybe, like with every other myth regarding this horse, it's just pure bull.
I'll keep you updated if you're interested in it. Maybe one day I'll join the Hall of Fame of people that grinded they life off for this mount and finally got it after a drop chance increase. I don't care if everyone will have it as long as I have it. It's just annoying to see others have it after 2 or 10 runs after you ran it for all your wow playtime.
Oh well
/shrug

Ok, so after reading all these comments I became really encouraged to try farming Baron for this mount. I have always wanted it since pre-BC and all the times I had ever run Strat I had never even seen it drop :(
I began farming about 4 days ago and in that time I would run Strat around 10 - 15 times each day.
I was prepared for the worst! You have to expect that you will be in there a really long time to keep from going crazy seeing the Tunic of the Crescent Moon drop everytime!
What really inspired me were the comments where people had to run it around 251 - 289 times! As well as those of you who posted pics of it dropping, especially the pics that had the statistics open to show what number run it dropped on :D
If it wasn't for you guys I probably would have given up.
Last night, however, on run # 61 (post patch) I got extremely lucky to have the mount finally drop! I couldn't believe it!
All I can say is hang in there and NEVER EVER give up! A good way to look at it is to not expect the mount to drop but just worry about getting your Baron kill count to the highest number possible! The higher the number of runs the better your chances! Set a goal and slightly increase it each time you reach it. This worked for me and it can help ease the repetitive madness :D
61 RUNS POST PATCH AND THE MOUNT IS MINE :DDDD
NEVER EVER GIVE UP ON THIS DREAM, IT WILL DROP EVENTUALLY!
THANKS TO ALL THE ENCOURAGING COMMENTS THAT KEPT ME GOING!
WOOT!

This is bull!@#$, or should I say flaming undead horse ^&*!.
300 runs, no mount or sword.
One thing would make this less of a pain in the ass would be a stack % bonus, par say.
This as an example:
Bob kills baron Rivendare 100 times with the horse at a 1% drop chance.
Bob's chance to have the mount drop increases 1% on kill 101.
I'd love that system, would make this a lot less tedious.
Oh and those that say that it wouldn't be chance if they added the stack bonus, *!@# you, trying running this !@#$hole 300+ and being disappointed 300 times.

Ill try and keep at short and simple.
Know the !@#$ing crates with bugs in them? THEY ARE NOW YOUR NEW BEST FRIEND.
I ^&*! you not, as !@#$ed as it sounds, they made this easy.
With this trick, you can skip ALL mobs, bosses and other #$%^ and kill baron.
This is what you do-
> Mob dodge to Magistrate Barth. See the crates around him? Without aggravating anything, stand near them, not too close though. If you stand at the right point, you can click them and get the text "You can't open that" Kill the bugs in there, then look back at the Abom gate and ^&*! yourself, the gate has vanished! Do that too two (2) of the crates with the bugs, and both gates are gone.
> Now you are in the Abom area. Wanna skip this aswell? SURE!
Go find 2 more crates with bugs in them, and rinse repeat, knocking over Baron's Zigg. gates.
> Profit! when I did this today, I wasn't expecting anything. Ive killed him 454 times, why would he drop the mount now?
....

Happy hunting to those that have put in more than 200 runs, my hat goes off to you troopers!

Hoping to clear up some rumors here.
There is absolutely NOTHING you do while inside Stratholme that decides if the mount drops or not. The crate trick doesn't effect it, the order of killing the mini bosses doesn't effect it, masturbating 10 minutes before killing Baron doesn't affect it.
Loot is decided the moment you walk in. It's called "Seeding". When you step through the instance portal, the loading screen is loading the map, the mobs, and the loot assignments.
So, nailing a dead black cat and 100 rabbit's feet to your monitor isn't going to help the drop rate.

Well like everyone else im still goin, I have stopped counting runs because its too depressing estimate 200+, my only comment is anyone reading posts here thinking of farming mount be prepared for some EPIC GRINDING because the lucky few who do less than 50 runs should take a lotto ticked on the same day and they would probably win that too !

Anyone else think its weird that the horse was once alive, then it got killed, then brought back to life to become undead, then you kill it therefore making him re-dead, then you loot an item which brings him back to life to become re-undead?
I bet that poor horse is at the end of its tether - BADUM TSHHHHHHH!

Dear Baron,
After killing you nearly 200 times, and raising my reputation to exaulted, i have concluded that you are a selfish asshair. Even after a bunch of /beg ing and /hug ing, and even after becoming a fan of you on Facebook, you still haven't given me the mount? It's good to be assertive in life, however being stubborn to the point where i lose my sanity is just ridiculous. After all i have done for you, you still can't hand me the Deathcharger's Reins?
Anyway, thanks for being my favorite boss.
Love always (your biggest fan and best friend),
Tatsycle
PS to all the kiddies out there. Don't expect this in under 100 runs.

Thats right ... 501 freakin' kills of Baron Rivendare and the Mount FINALLY dropped for me.
In that time, I did +/- 200 FULL Clears, +/- 200 Speed Clears, and +/- 100 "Crate Breaking" Runs.
After I sacrificed a chicken to the Lewt Gawds, the Mount dropped after my 501st kill on a "Speed Clear" where I killed ONLY the Mini- Bosses and NO Trash.
Actually, I just ate a plate of Chinken Strips and crossed my fingers >.<
So for all you out there that think the Deathcharger will NEVER drop, just keep at it. It will ... EVENTUALLY ... drop for you. Buy some Tyson Chicken Strips ... trust me, it worx!

me- level 80 frostmage eldre thalas horde side
mostly level 80 blues and some epics
barons mount droped for me on my 147th run
this was my strat-
before entering buffed with ai, molten armor, and dampen magic
part 1- go throw instance and stay to left and walk around the first set of skellies, run around next set and blink past last set of skellies by the gate that when opens starts the 45 min run.
part 2(spider boss)- when opening the last gate where the first banshee is hit invisibity and hang a left towards the spider boss. you will have enough time to run the whole way up the stairs and position yourself in one of the corners behind the boss(if your 80 you will not agro from here) hit ice barrier and icy veins and frostbolt him to death, clear out the zigarat and move on.
part 3(banshee boss)- ok now yo have to get back to the start point where the first banshee is. there are 2 diff ways to get to the you can run back the way you came and blink if needed or the way i go (just to be safe) is after leaving the first zigarat i blink across the street move up as much as possible( look for a lightpole) and blink back across and move back to the start point. now 2 way to get to the banshee queen from here. carefully run and blink to her or when i do is just wait for the invisibility cooldown and do that. when you get to her you can stand 2 steps from the top and not agro her. ice barrier and icy veins time, then nuke her with frostbolts. clear the zigarat
part 4(meleki the pallid)- blink across the street and move up to the lightpole. blink towards the little hallway to the left. run up a bit and there is a little alcove to the right, drink up and wait for invisibility cooldown. invisibility to the palid guy. what i do to say time is ice barrier before i go invisible to get to him, break invisibility at top of steps by hitting frost nova and blizzard the 3 humanoids and meleki and the same time. blizzard will kill the humanoids and get meleki to 64-71 percent, then just frostbolt him. clear zigarat. go back to stairs mana up and wait for invisibility cooldown
part 5(the abomination room)- if you go invisible from the stairs of the meleki boss you will have just enough time to get in the gate of the abomination room. i grab the first 5 abominations, group em up, frost nova, blizzard, cone of cold, AE till theyre all dead. i then grab the rest of the abominations on the right and do the same thing. and then the remainder of the abominations. evocate, summon water elemental ice barrier and icy veins and nuke ramstein( du hast!) drink up and wait for the last 4 skellies. ice lance pull, cone of cold then frost nova. blizzard then down.
part 6( the baron)- go into his room to either the left hugging the wall or the right hugging the wall and stand on the bones. summon water element, ice barrier, icy veins then nuke him with whatever you got. use AE when his adds come.(one should do it)
final notes- one of the most important things is to remember to look out for the eye of naxxramus. youll learn where he always is if yo ukeep a normal time table when doing this run. i turn my gamma up to the brightest setting so you can see him far away. a good way to avoid him is to alway stay close to a wall with out agroing skellies( the eye and the skellies are the only things that can see you when your invisible)
any question feel free to email me ingame
souxsie eldre thalas horse side
good luck and i hope this helps!

Just got my charger. As stated, took 37 runs. I happen to be exalted with AD but I don't think this had anything to do with the drop as I have been exalted for a while. Also, from a previous post, I cannot confirm that on the run when the reins dropped that it rained blood outside the Barons chamber as I didn't see anything different from any of my other runs.
UPDATE: I needed this mount for my other toon so I continued on after it dropped the first time. It didn't drop again until my 333rd run. In between, I also received
Rivendare's Sword
for whatever that's worth. Persistence pays off BUT, I assure you I WILL NEVER FARM ANOTHER RARE DROP. LOL

I have been farming this mount initially as part of the "mountain o mounts" achievement, but after looking it over, I found I could get the achievement in easier ways. Still, I persisted and over three weeks, and finally tonight on the 301st run, it dropped. Others in my guild got it at run 5, 20, and 25, but for me it took 300+ runs.

Guildie got one a few days ago. I'm pretty sure it's the first one on Blackhand. Other than that one time he doesn't want to drop anything but warrior and hunter leggings.
Don't ever expect to get one. I'd say the chances are somewhere in the area of 1 in 5000. Then of course you need to outroll the rest of the raid.

A large number of people have gotten "Deathcharger's Reins" after patch 3.0. Many have done thousands of runs pre-patch to see this drop and got it within a few hours post-patch.
It's safe to say at this point the drop rate was increased.

Hello just to confirm all the questions being asked NO you do not need to be exalted with argent dawn to get it my druid friend got it in 15 runs and was not exalted. Also the debuff doesn't matter from what i know of and im pretty sure ne1 can do in under 45 mins if ur like 69+ but u have to have good gear if ur 69 or be a dk :-) but no that does not matter i myself have no patience to farm this mount i want it so bad i am ditching northrend for this badboy! This mount is blue and is very alike to the purple skeletal horse. I take awhile to do this as a lvl 71 not too geared hunter im no god but i can handle the mobs well but i cant fool around today i actually killed baron on my 40th run and i think it only counts as kill if u loot cuz i remember being at 39 well my feign death failed so i couldnt misdirect or nething so i died and killed baron at same time now its bugging me im wondering if that was the horse drop grr. Finally if u do it 100 times it has a 63% chance that this badboy will drop and by 450 ur bound to atleast get it happy farming im at 42 runs peace out and doing strath 200 times for ppl who have done 200 times stay strong and dont give up just know that your own reward is doing it 200 times! Ahalcro out.

I just got this on my 80 druid on Darkspeare after only about 35 runs. Not too bad! Especially happy about this because my neighbor has done over 75 runs on his server and this still hasn't dropped for him. This makes it so much fun to ride around on when he's watching!:) <-- evil grin Also, I tried this "box trick" and was never able to get it to work so perhaps they "fixed" it or I could have just been doing it wrong.

Okay, you do NOT need Exhalted with Argent Dawn, you do NOT need to be in a 5 man, you do NOT need anything special apart from the skill in your group/raid to kill Baron and be lucky enough for this to drop at RANDOM.
It dropped yesterday and we gave it to our resident mage, as she was the only one without an epic mount. She's very happy now and we're all glad that we have a guild full of epic mounters now.
Remember: There is NO NEED for ANYTHING SPECIAL to get this to drop.

I've read multiple arguments. People keep saying you must reach exalted with AD. But the fact that it has never dropped, alliance or horde in the tens of thousands of raids on my server leads me to believe that you must be exalted for it to drop, otherwise surely it would have dropped by now. Look at it this way,

Seems to me like only 3 classes can solo a strat ud run. Paladins, hunters,and druids. No luck for us other classes. Were probably going to have to wait to be lvl 80 and everyone will be farming old 60 instances. Screw being a deathknight and walking in snow. This is more worthwhile to me, well not really.

Well it finally happened! Just got it March 3rd, 2008 around 8:00PM CST.
It dropped on the 289th run.
I made around 15,000 gold from selling disenchanted greens & blues.
Started at it on January 13th as noted in my first post. So Jan 13th-March 3rd. Ouch =P Just realizing how long it took, lol.
Did at least 1 run per day, but closer to 5-10.
Not much more to say than don't give up if you really want it.

2.) DROP not QUEST
3.) 100% Increased Speed
4.) LOOKS LIKE BUT NOT IDENTICLE to undead epic mount. Blue instead of Green.
5.) Tauren CAN'T ride this.
6.) Don't even bother TRYING to farm this guy unless you have a good raid backing you up. He CAN and WILL kick your ass something fierce.
7.) Don't let this get your hopes up, chances are, you won't see this.

I finally got this mount today on run # 179..persistence pays off!
I did the box 'trick' which is to open the 4-5 boxes outside of the slaughterhouse gate without aggro'ing any mobs...then going into the slaughterhouse and opening the 4-5 additional boxes scattered around the perimeter of the room and only having to kill the plagued insects,rats and maggots in the boxes.
The runs take roughly 6 minutes each coming through the service entrance.
These past 179 runs have netted me roughly 2k gold between Baron's loot, box junk and anything that I have indeed aggroed not to mention the 1000's of pieces of runecloth that I used for rep repeatable turn ins.
There is NO additional chance for this mount to fall regarding any reputation benefit!

Can any1 actually verify that this item has dropped anytime at all during the last 3-4 months?
Imagine how many Baron kills each server actually have per day on both factions.
The last time some1 got this in EU Bladefist was probably 7 months ago and it was also the only time.
My theory after seeing that my exalted is worthless is that this mount cannot drop at all anymore.
Else it's real droprate is around 1/500000.
Remember that the mount is ranked as superior quality and raptor mount is more ussual and is epic quality.
blade of baron rivendare is far more common and epic quality.

People are forgetting things when comparing world drops with this mount:
First, the world drops have lower drop chance according to this site since it drops from EVERYWHERE.
Baron Riverdares mount on other hand, only drops by himself.
This should be logical enough for people to understand. :)

This beauty dropped on Silvermoon on January 14th, 2006. Just look for a warlock on the alliance side parading around if you have doubts it's still in the game.

Well actually my journey began about a week ago =)
My rogue with only S1 gladiator gear + S1 weapons + vindicators gear + fully enchanted. I've started my farm for the mount and will continue to farm for it until I get it! Which may be tomorrow or never. But I believe WOW is about persistence and keeping at it.
I'm up to around 50 kills now. I try to do it at least 10 times a day.
Just 2 weeks ago someone else on my server farmed the 2nd one ever to drop on our server.
The fight is about practice also. The more times you do the solo Baron run the easier it becomes. Capping the EPL tower helps a LOT.
I'll keep this updated if it every drops for me.

You are right it doesn't matter how many times you run it. But from my research most people get it before their 450th run. You are right though- you could get it your first run or 1000th.
The main thing is sticking with it. If you quit you will NEVER get it.
When I was on around run 250 I started the doubt. Started to think I could go spend my time farming honor or arena points or something else. Personally I thought I wouldn't get it before WOTLK. Then just 39 runs later it dropped for me.
Stick with it. Do things to motivate yourself. Everytime I was waiting on my cooldowns staring at Baron. I would imagine myself on that mount and how badass it was going to be.

Just go to achievements then go to statistics then go on dungeon and raid then it should say classic click on that then it will tell you how many runs you have done. Wish me luck hopefully i get it :-( bye guyz.

Does it matter that the drop rate is low? I mean, I've been going to Scholo to get my Dreadmist done -_- Over three or four runs still no drops.

We're going there tonight and to be honest I wouldnt be suprised if he drops his horse and I roll the lowest... *sigh*

It does drop (Duh), you DONT have to be exalted with AD (It WONT increase ur chance on finding it also, seeing as you can get this mount when ur 'hated' with AD)
So why doesnt it drop for you? It is a FREE epic mount and different then those whom Alliance can ride, it's obvious why blizz made the drop chance so low...5 or 10 man, doesnt make a difference but if it makes you any happier...Strat will soon be a 5 man instance (ver 1.10)
So basicly the faction rep with AD/group size/etc. to get and/or increase the drop chance is false

Just an FYI, coming from a level 60 who has his Dreadsteed(lock epic mount)...
I have been in a few parties in Strat, and every now and then someone brings up the 'What If' Scenario... if the Baron drops his mount... blah blah
Basically people who did not have their Epic Mount thought it was only right they those with an epic mount should pass on it.. >.<
First of all, as a Warlock, I have worked harder to get my mount then most people. Hell anyone could just buy 800g off the internet and get their epic mount within minutes, I spent a fackload of time getting mine, and I did a very time consuming and expensive(spent close to 400-500g) 12 Chain Quest... when you lazy people get off your butts and put that kind of work, time and gold into getting your own epic mount, then you'll understand why those of us with them get facking pissed off that lazy people think they can not give us a chance to roll because they're too lazy to grind the gold or quest themselves...
Just to give you an idea, here's a complete list of what a Warlock goes through to get his mount. We don't just walk up to someone and say "hey, I'm a lock, gimme my epic mount!"... >.<
Warlock Quest: Dreadsteed
Quit looking for an easy way and work at your epics like the rest of us! Also, everyone should roll on this because seriously, the droprate is facking uber low, and it just plain looks sweet.
I don't want to hear someone telling me that because I'm an undead Warlock w/ my dreadsteed that I can't roll on this because I have an epic and I can just buy a Purple Skeletal Warhorse... how about you get exalted w/ Undercity, throw me the gold and I'll buy you the facking mount, and in the meantime I'm going to roll on this sweet ride.

If this dropped, I'd say everyone should roll on it. Whether you have an epic mount or not, this is a once in a lifetime drop, unless you're really really really lucky and you've seen it drop twice. So, everyone should roll need on this thing. I know I would, and I have my epic mount already.
And yes, I worked for the money to buy my mount. I sold a really valuable item for 700g. ^_~

Yes, I agree. Whoever kills Baron ought to be able to roll on it, whether or not they will benefit.
Likewise, a Paladin should be able to roll on Netherwind gear. A Warrior should be able to roll on Avenger set pieces. A Mage should roll on Quel'serrar, right?
It has nothing to do with the value you get, because anyone who killed the boss should be allowed to roll.
A Mage could even equip Quel'serrar. Why aren't you arguing that they should be allowed to roll on the Foror's Compendium when it drops, because it would look totally sweet? A Mage would get more use out of Quel'serrar than a person who already has an epic would get out of Baron's Steed.
If you'd roll on this as a person who already has an epic mount, you're a #$%^ing *!@#, who's screwing someone who would actually use this out of 900g. Boohoo for you; it didn't drop until after you bought your mount. Grow the $%^& up and don't screw somebody who might actually benefit from it.

i have been farming baron as a rogue for a couple of weeks now. a perfect run can be as fast as 15min, on average it takes me 20min. the large brilliant shards and greater eternal essences are very popular and people pay big gold for those on the auction house so even if i didn't get the mout (yet) i have made a couple of thousands of gold just by disenchanting the lvl60 items :) you can find an uncut video of a typical 18min baron run here:

Im just starting to do my runs in strat, i have only done it 6 times. i have already got on BoE epic[Brain Hacker} 12 BoE blues. If u are just starting to try this too, dont worry, getting the key to the city is the hardest part if u cant despell dieseases(i know my spelling is bad just go with me). for the first part u can walk past almost every mob untill u get to the part where u get the barons ultamadum. i started from wiping about 20 times a run to not wiping once, and once i realy got good i could do teh run in 31 min max( when i say this i mean only the 4 bosses u need to get to the baron), eather way this is my favorite way to get money and there still is the hope of getting the mount. because i can DE i got 1k g in 2 days, and i was fooling aorund half the time. just remember to have fun with the runs and dont give up. I like to think of looting the baron as a gambleing game that you never know if u r going to get the mount. my gear isnt even too great so anyone can realy do this.

This is simple logic so i hope everyone can understand it easily enough. This item is a reward for killing and end boss, therefore, whether or not u have an epic mount has absolutely nothing to do with who should get it. Whomever undertook the effort to clear the instance and kill Baron should all have an equal chance at this item. Would it be nice of someone who already has an epic mount to pass for someone who doesnt? Sure, but it's their right to roll if they helped clear the instance and they can use it. Now with the changes to mount pricing tho mounts don't cost very much anyway it's training that costs alot.

looks a awesome mount.....brilliant for alliance not so brilliant for horde though since undead epic mount looks exactly the same :|
id love this on my pally....hmmm pally on a undead horse just as funny as pally on kodo on the test relms :P
and btw as other people have said you do not need to be exhalted with AD or even have the AD trinket on or be in a 5man group it can drop anytime its just a extreamly rare drop :)
but you know i would of thought all people would try and ninja it since everyone would want one :P
also this goes the same speed as a normal epic mount this just looks cooler :)

If it would drop more often it wouldnt be so special anymore... So i think Blizz does right dropping it 1 of 30000.
Of course a palading has big mouth :) but cmon, palas still need to donate approx 350g to get theyr epic mount. Besides they have to do a realy long chain and extremely hard 5-man quest fight at the end... so finaly its equal to just farm those 900g.

I got them, I got them!
Wow, so psyched right now, it's amazing :D
Took a grand total of perhaps 80-90 runs; I only kept accurate track of them for the last 11 with MobInfo2. Night Elf Feral Druid on a Skeleton Horse, hells YES!
Some quick facts:
I made around 12,000-15,000 gold total on all those runs. Again, I didn't keep track, so it's a ballpark estimate. I managed to buy my own epic flyer, and pay a total of 4000g to two friends to help them get theirs. I currently have 7500g left over. Disenchanting is what made me the most, although finding a Skullflame Shield made me a quick 1200.
Runs started off slowly. At first I needed to use the Medallion of Faith to get Aurius on my side, and also I usually needed to use my heal macro or pop out with Barkskin and heal. Once I had all my gear upgraded to epics, it was a lot easier. My most recent runs included the use of Weightstones (can't find the best, so I was using +6 damage), major agility potions, and a single Major Shadow Protection Potion for the Baron. In the last 10 runs or so I never hit below 5000 hp.
The #1 cause of death was destealthing by the Eye of Naxxramas, and the subsequent orgy of violence when everything around me aggroed. The #2 was gargoyles flying over me and unstealthing me (usually I can get out of the way, but sometimes the screen would load too slowly for me to see them). #3 was a tie between aggroing ghosts (for some reason they seem to have a larger aggro radius than normal enemies) and the early Baron deaths.
Some tips:
1. You don't need to fight the bugs in the gauntlet if you can stealth. Sneak into one of the corners and wait for them to run out. In about 15 seconds after that, the gauntlet opens up again, allowing you to continue through. Note: this only works if you can stealth.
2. You don't need to fight the Mindless Undead outside the Slaughterhouse. As soon as the last Abomination dies, Ramstein's door opens. Immediately run inside and fight Ramstein outside the Baron's room. When he dies, the doors will still be closed. Kill the Blackguard skeletons, and then the Baron's room opens. Kill the Baron, and stealth/hearth out.
3. Save sprint for the following areas: between the Baronness and Nerub'akan (the spider, whatever his name is) and between Malaki and the Magistrate. These two areas seem the most common for destealthing by Eyes. If you get caught here, IMMEDIATELY run into a secluded area to fight (like the Baroness' zigurat, or Malaki's. You'll still have to deal with like 6 enemies, but I guarantee you'll fight more if you stay out in the open, due to gargoyles, fear, or enemies moving around when a crypt beast nets you.

After 230 runs my Deathchargers Drops !
Also have to say a thanks to my DE partner Heiler who did a lot of runs with me, including the one where it drops. I gave to him as a gift one of the orb of deceptions that i got in Strat.
Average Time: 20-23 min per run
Record Time: Me, Heiler and a hunter: 13 min
Gold: Around 15-20k (3 epics, 2 orbs of deception, tons of boe blues and DE stuff)
For those that will say that im an Undead and would be easier to buy a plain skelly horse i dont care. This is THE UNDEAD MOUNT to me ;)

My 127-th run , No mount yet , Sword droped 2 times already , 1 Orb of Deception and 5 Boe epics . 13.5k gold so far .Still 410x Large brill shards in the bank to sell ( lol)
This has nothing to do with Argent Dawn reputation at all - I'm exalted and you will get exalted just by running Baron .
Talked to GM in game , confirmed-it has a same drop chance on regular run , and 45 min run , but usually it take me about 20-25 min solo runs as a frost mage ( 2/0/59 )with full S2 arena gear . Just replacing trinkets for +stam when fighting Baron so i can get arround 11.5k HP
If you are a mage , you can armory my gear ( Bianka on Ghostlands realm)
Very easy as a frost mage .
Im keep going and will not stop untill i get it !
Best of luck to all who is farming for this mount !

Sounds like I got very lucky. I ran this instance for the first time ever with my lvl 60 DK and a friend (lvl 80 rouge). The mount dropped, I asked my friend if he wanted it since he guided me and he declined. Since word on the street is that the drop rate has increased and I got it on the first try, my other friend has been running it. He is up to about 50 runs with no luck over the past couple days.
I did not notice any raining blood when I did it.

What everyone seems to be ignoring, is there a SKILL that is required to ride it? If it requires the undead horse riding skill, how would an alliance member go about learning it? I know that people are supposed to be able to learn how to ride, and ride, mounts from the other faction, as a number of sites have said so, and the descriptions of (some) of the items to summon mounts say that races of both factions can use it (I think only the mounts that are unrideable by some races say this; *edit* As does THIS mount!). My question is, HOW does someone learn the riding skill of a mount from the OTHER faction? And does THIS mount need a specific skill?

Funny how things work out. I was supposed to do a heroic run on my priest but couldn't seem to get folks together. A guildie priest asked if we could do the 45 min Baron Strat run. I said, "Sure, I'll bring my 70 lock so it'll go quicker." Wouldn't you know, the reins drop. I've run this about 20 times on my priest but maybe only 4-5 times on my lock. I roll a 99 as does the guildie who asked for the run. Bliz was kind enough to deposit the reins in my bag. :+)

According to WoWwiki.
Before 3.0 the drop was about 1 in 5000.
Now its 1 in 100.
And if your terrible at math that's an item that went from a 0.02% drop to a 1% drop. Makes me sick to think I've ran it so many times before 3.0 for them just to take the rarity of this item away.

Goodbye Stratholme. Thankfully I didn't have to wait until Naxx(80) for Baron kills again.

I read in several different places that the drop rate was increased to 1/100. Is anyone 100% sure about this? I have now ran strat 268 times since the 1/100 drop rate change and still haven't seen it. While I know that random loot is random, after that many kill, I have a 90% chance probability of having seen it at least once. Is my luck really this bad?

Well, only Baron Rivendare can drop his mount - that seems logical.
Allakhazam's loot tables have been wiped since 1.10 changes the chances of droppings from some bosses, so the pool is gathered again - When someone with software like WoWreader(?) will see it drop - it will be listed.

Since the 1.10 patch, Allakhazam wiped the Baron's loot table, as it was changed by Blizzard.
The Baron now has 2 loot tables, one normal, and an improved one if you kill him within 45 minutes of opening the second gate. I think this mount will now be on this improved table.
Until patch 1.11, only those with the 0.5 tier armour quests have access to this improved table, this has been pointed out as a bug. 1.11 will see everyone who kills him within 45 minutes getting access to the better loot.
So for now, only those on the quest can get this mount, this will change in 1.11.
As suggested in the subject, these are simply my thoughts, a mixture of opinions and facts :)

An undead warlock has this on my server. Why? I don't know. People say, "It's Baron's mount and a super rare drop, so it's good for anyone to have." This is true, but an UNDEAD? Baron Rivendare, last time I checked, was indeed undead, therefore his mount doesn't look any different than epic undead mounts.
And also, I don't see why the drop has to be insanely rare. ZG drops are about 1%. I guess, now that I think about it, ZG is a 3day reset, as opposed to Stratholme, which can be reset instantly.
Someone argue with this. I'm interested to see what people have to say.

I belive that everyone should be able to roll. Some people say that it should go to somebody that dosent have a mount... this is just crazyness! lol. I would easily give up all my gear, and gold just to have this mount. It would be like saying, you have a $300 beater of a car, and you just won a $1.5million car like the Bugatti Veyron, fully insured, liftime maintnance, but you give it to someone else because you already have a car. :P That would just be crazy! Although... I dont think you should be able to roll if your not 60, and dont have the training for it. Mostly because, it may never be used! I read on forums, on 2 acounts, that people have won this mount, never got epic mount training, and stoped playing wow! X| That makes me want to cry! It should go to somebody that can use it.

On the Atlas loot mod it says the drop % is .1%, and on WiWwiki (
http://www.wowwiki.com/Deathcharger's_Reins
) it says .01% and on WoWarmory (
http://www.wowarmory.com/item-info.xml?i=13335
) it is listed as "Extremely Low (1% - 2%)" What is right?

lol ok this subject seems alittle muddled so im just gunna list my views :)
1) Everyone should need, with or without epic mounts of w/e class they are
2) Damn thats a cool mount
3) Argent dawn rep doesnt affect drop rate O_O there goes alot of watsed time >_<

after reading post after post of people comparing it to classes rolling on other class' armor/weapons (which i think is bull since it has nothing to do with this).
Someone rolling for an epic armor/weapon that they can't use or is worse than their current armor when it would be an upgrade for someone else is wrong i'll aggree. That is unless the person with sucky armor/weapons knows you have higher importance in the group for the item.
At any rate, this is a NONCOMBAT ITEM, as in you don't start a fight and somehow win when you have this mount with you. It won't heal you or give you extra hp/mana/dmg. You ride it around and look cool, that's it. And as such why don't you roll on it like that? I see trinkets, quest items, and all sorts or other stuff people have no problems with sharing rolling rights with others over. Perfect example are the invader's scorge stones, you don't say, "hey, who has the lowest/highest rep we'll give it to them". No, you all greed or need depending on your group, unless someone is nice and passes.
Point is unless one of you already have this you should ALL roll no matter what mount you have (not that you could roll if you had it anyhow since it's unique, but you get my point).
Infact if you wanted to split hairs people without epic mount training should have lower rolling status just cause they can't actualy use it when they get it. But still, i say they should be allowed to roll anyways.
EDIT: Also to clarify so as not to have people saying i'm biased and don't know both sides of the fence, i have chars both with and without epic mounts/training.

My birthday was back in may, and all I got was $50 gas money.
What I really would like is a hassle free, good mileage mount that has a sweet graphic (but nothing too flashy).
One that'll make me stand out but not be gawked at. Like the one you have.
Thank you for your time.

Way too many misconceptions in these comments.
The mount is a regular rare drop on the baron's loot table, that means it always has a chance to drop. You don't need any AD rep, you don't need an AD trinket equipped, and you don't need to be in a 5-man.
The drop rate is probably 1 in 50,000 or higher. As to why a horde would go crazy over this I have no idea since the undead mounts look just as good, but if I was alliance in a pickup I would ninja this before you could say "deathcharger's reigns" It's the rarest item in the game period, after you have this you might as well stop playing because you're not going to top it.
To give you an idea of how rare this is, our server is a day 1 retail server with a relatively high population, and this mount has never dropped on our server.

why would i want to help someone i don't know save gold? i PvP'ed my way to a 90g mount. but i'll still roll on the deathcharger.
if it was a guild run, i would still roll on it. there are 2 on my server i believe, and it's not exactly a new server. (not all the way through naxx, but multiple bosses are on farm status)
and why did someone compare a mount, able to be used by all races/classes, to gear that is only usable by 1 (or 2 like quel) classes?
and why are you saying "boohoo"? you're the one whining about people not passing on a mount so you don't have to work for one.
and another thing. if you're gonna curse, curse. nobody is impressed with your %$#%^^%$ crap.
while i was typing this lovely rant, i scrolled back up 4 or 5 times just to read "A Mage could even equip Quel'serrar" because it made me laugh. it's not true.... so either you're blatantly lying, or you have never seen a foror's compendium. and if you've dinged 60, you should have seen one on the auction house at least. with all your false info, maybe you bought your account on ebay or something? hm
oh i just realized another thing. it requires 150 riding. which means 720g anyways...more proof of ebay?

In my opinion, everyone should get a chance to roll on this mount. This is one of the most sought after mounts in the game, who wouldn't want it. First of all, alot of people claim someone with an epic mount should not be able to roll need on this. I'm not going to start saying that those who want it to avoid paying for it are lazy #$%^&*!s and should earn it. Honestly, who wants to spend that much? And if you already have an epic mount, ofcourse you're going to want this anyway. It's an awesome looking mount, and one of the rarest items in the game. If i saw this drop, i would definitely need, despite my swift white steed. I have wanted either the troll or the raptor since heard of them, and i regret making my mage alliance, since i would be able to get both a raptor and an undead horse had i been a troll or undead mage.

Is this only achievable on the 45 min. run, or simply by killing baron? Because me and my husband farm the instance for money just hoping for it, we average about 100g an hour! But just curious because depending on the toons we decide to take in, we can't always do the 45 min unless we pay VERY close attention. Just curious what kind of chances I have seeing as how I am a mount collector on one of my toons and want that one to have the best chance at the mount lol

In case anyone is wondering this mount
STILL DROPS!
I got it tonight, on Lightbringer. I have been farming this things casually over the course of the last 10 to 12 years, on my DK, on my druid, on my pally, and on my mage, whatever I felt like playing. All total I have over 200 kills on the baron.
Was it worth it? Well, yes and no.
Tonight when it dropped I actually yelled "YES! THERE IT IS!" and I am just stupid happy that I'll never have to run Stratholme again. At the same time it's a lot of time grinding an old world instance for a mount that doesn't fly... YMMV.

Unbelievable but true, this mount will be much, much rarer than the black qiraji scarab mount in classic.
1 out of 5000 chances (more if you roll against 4 other players).
Technically this mount is harder to get than the scarab.
This mount symbolizes the highest prestige you could get for a mount, sadly odds are you're never going to even see it in game.

The first drop in both classic and TBCC has just been recorded today by a Wowhead client user after a total of 9609 recorded kills (you can now see the mount on the Baron's loot table). Easily the rarest item in-game ;)

Looted this beauty today, 127 runs.
Thus confirms the original drop chance increase (0.02% -> 1%) from retail WotLK prepatch also applies to Classic.

I used to have Rivendare's Deathcharger on my Human Mage 80 around year 2010 after at least 50+ runs. This is Blood Elf Paladin 74.
