я конечно могу ошибаться, но все таки в акерус может попасть любой игрок! услуга пригласи друга предусматривает, что один игрок может призывать другого. т.е. если одиниз друзей ДК то он может туда "прыгнуть" через врата смерти и призвать туда друга. но вот купить его и спользовать может только дк)

This was changed in late September in beta, the full write up is available at DeathKnight.info (http://deathknight.info/2008/09/the-real-winged-steed/)

but to summarize, the new more "bad-ass" model looks like: (http://deathknight.info/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/wowscrnshot_092408_182919.jpg) and the older "cooked chicken" model looked like this: (http://deathknight.info/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/wowscrnshot072908095932bi3.jpg)

As for cost, hopefully it will be adjusted for the Live servers, as 950g on top of the flying skills is very steep, but that is most likely a a dream on my part. Not sure the reason behind the mount being so expensive, though Dragyn's math makes sense, since DKs get the epic riding skill free as the 4th or 5th quest you do, I guess this is one way to balance it back out. <shrug> guess we will see in 4 days.

Комментарий от PocketFox

Unlike the normal flying mounts (specifically the gryphons and wyverns), the cost of this one does scale down depending on your rep with the Knights. Granted, even at exalted it'll still be more expensive than any two gryphons/wyverns, but that's still better than having to pay a flat 1000g like you have to with the Kirin Tor mounts.

Комментарий от 61664

I'm really surprised no one has said anything about it, but how do they think this is supposed to be able to fly?

Комментарий от 108903

The cost doesn't bother me... anyone that makes a DK already has another class high enough they can make the money with.
also you can take your DK to level up ANY gathering profession, and it will be easier than your original character. You will already have epic speed mount, and high enough level the surrounding mobs won't be an issue while your dk is "catching up"

But I am on the fence bout how it looks.

Going to wait until I see some DKs with it, see the run graphics, ect and then decide.

Комментарий от theASCHE360

I love Everything about DKs but this... i dont know, it dont look like the mount of a "evil" guy, i think the DK mount should be something like the Locks Epic mount, something Scary but Cool at the same time, this chiken just look funny =/

They Should At Least update de model with diferent wings :P

Комментарий от 110023

Does this mount look the same with 225 riding skill or does the 300 riding skill make it look different?

Комментарий от Broloth

Here is MY chart on DK and Normal People Mount skills

Normal (skill)
lvl 30 - 35g
lvl 60 - 600g
lvl 70 - 800g
lvl 70 (epic) - 5000g
lvl 77 - 1000g

Death Knight (skill)
lvl 30 - 0g
lvl 60 - 0g
lvl 70 - 800g
lvl 70 (epic) - 5000g
lvl 77 - 1000g

Normal (mount)
lvl 30 - 10g
lvl 60 - 100g
lvl 70 - 100g
lvl 70 (epic) - 200g

DK (mount)
lvl 30 - 0g
lvl 60 - 0g
lvl 70 - 1000g
lvl 70 (epic) - 0g

So your average non-warlock, non-paladin spends approximately 7845g on mounting from level 1 - 80 and your average DK spends about 7000g, so yeah, QQ more Death Knights; and let's not forget that Knights of the Ebon Hold rep effects the price.

Now my question is, if you have 60% flight speed, does it still RUN at 100% speed like the Headless Horseman mount?

Комментарий от Vefantur

As of 11/28 you can mount straight from your Acherus Deathcharger to your Winged steed of the Ebon Blade WITHOUT DISMOUNTING. Don't know if it's a bug, but you can do it. :)

Комментарий от 260483

Speed "scales to skill" so if your skill is 225 then the speed of your mount should be 225% not 60%. This means that when you get your epic mount training 300 then your mount should be 300% speed, but unfortunatly blizzard dose not get that so the mount is stuck being standard speed.

Комментарий от 40338

One question that I have not been able to find the answer for. Does the cost of this mount lower as the rep with the Knights of the Ebon Blade increases? (ie 10% discount at honoured, 15% at revered, and 20% at exalted)

Комментарий от Vefantur

well for example, if you are trying to mount your flying mount and get put into combat you are still on your 100% mount at least. this is VERY useful on pvp servers atm, not that a DK should really be running anyway :)

edit: this is in response to varai's question

Комментарий от Stormwaker

On the WoW forums, people constantly whine and complain about how the mount looks and blah blah blah. I think it looks cool, perhaps if it had some stringy webbing between the wing bones, it would have more of a decaying look (that's the only strange thing I find with it), and perhaps people would be quiet about it.

Комментарий от switch89a

For those who were wondering, this mounts' price does scale with your Knights of the Ebon Blade rep, so it would be 950g at friendly, but if you wait till exalted the mount will only cost you 800g.

Комментарий от tlanwarrior

Whats cool, is you can mount this off your deathcharger. At least in 3.0.3. Dunno if its a bug or not. But it is possible.

Комментарий от smiley900

What is the flying mount on the login screen? I know its not this.

Комментарий от 257782

I think this is the ugliest mount ever. But since I'm a Death Knight, and it scales to my riding, I will get it. Plus "On a Pale Horse" makes me like what? 300% faster? It's awesome.

well i think blizz made an error with this. IMHO i think this looks horrible blizz should have made a lil more effort than just make a gryphon made of bones i for one do not like it one bit id rather get any other flying mount

I ask that you do not downrate me for giving my opinion

Комментарий от 44612

buy it only if you like the looks

because you'll be spending 650g more if you arent gonna buy regular mount gryphon

Would it be worth it getting this over the normal Flying Mount for Alliance?

It's a nice mount, but something is missing from it, which I think is the cherry on the top!

Комментарий от 296636

Can anybody tell me the locations that this flying mount is able to be used? is it outlands and northrend the the normal flying mount?

Комментарий от 290374

It would look much better if there were at least some kind "membrane" in between the wing fingers.

And if you guys say this crazy thing called magic makes it fly, whats the point in the wings if you're just going to "enchant" it to fly. I like wings, not long fingers. O.o

Комментарий от 307224

can someone plz tell me if this mount is 280% or 60% speed

Комментарий от 316215

Yeah... it's a sweet mount... i could have had my epic flying by now but buying that has skint me , dont buy it... it doesnt even have feathers... its like it's gonna say when it jumps of a cliff : "wtf... im just falling, where'd my feathers go? " its just pathetic.... it's assive it just floats on its little blue stuff under it its just gonna glide through the air as it falls... It's a waste of time although it has got a bit of armour... so do gryphons

Комментарий от kounteron

give me ONE reason why i should buy this instead of a normal gryphon in shadowmoon valley?
(other than the cooler looks)
because im not rich

Комментарий от supertao

A few people have asked me how this can fly...

Simply put, when the steed flaps it's wings it emits dark energies, propelling itself from the ground and allowing it to stay air born.

Комментарий от 332502

and for god sake, its not a chicken, its a skeletal gryphon, get it right, calling it a chicken is a total noob thing, call it by its name, really

Комментарий от 329433

Personally, I say, "Go ahead, cost all you want!" Because this is the ugliest flying mount besides the flying carpet that I have seen. It looks so dumb and I'd rather just have an armored griffon (With all it's skin and feathers still on it) or a dragon or something.

Комментарий от Rankkor

yuck, honestly, I don't know what the hell was blizz thinking, I know many plp will simply say "if you don't like it, then don't buy it" or just downgrade/purge my comment. but the point is:

I want a DK flight-mount, but not THIS ONE.

no matter what specie it is, riding a frikking skeleton is not cool, unless the bones or most of them are covered by some armor.

that's the reason I never purchased the forsaken 60% mount, cause is an exposed skeleton, at least the 100% mount has a good cool armor to cover up the bones, it has a cool glow and dark energy emanating, and that unholy fire in the hooves.

does the ebon-bone-bird has any of that? nope.

is an ugly skeletal bird no matter how you look at it, sure, they fixed it a little with the armor, and making the beak darker, and the eyes glow in blue and all, it looks better than in beta, but is still lacking.

let's take in consideration, that this mount is more expensive than the regular flight mounts, so the only reason for getting it, is for eye-candy, well that eye-candy must be sweet not sour.

if this is a vanity mount it HAS TO LOOK NICER. a zombie griphon whould had been better, or at least a griphon that has all the effects of the forsaken 100% mount (AKA cool glow, full-sized armor that covers pretty much everything but the head, dark energy emanating form it, and an unholy fire trail when it flies) but this one looks like a rushed incomplete mount.

plp get this mount for the looks, so for christ sake give'em something nicer to look at :S

I like the concept of an exclusive class-mount and I want a nice DK flight mount, and am willing to pay more for it if it looks nice, but if I have to choose from this dirt, and say a netherdrake, a proto-dragon, or one of those drakes that drop from the eye/obsidian sanctum, then I rather go for the dragons.

hopefully in some future patch blizz will please all the DK's out there begging to have a frost wyrm as a mount

Does it still move at 60% while on the ground?

Комментарий от 202814

i absolutely love this mount and i love the fact that it scales with riding skill (ie: gets faster with higher riding skill... dont have to buy an epic flyer)

Комментарий от 145556

I don`t get it.do you get the 5000g training for free?

Комментарий от 225109

Just want to share this.

I just dinged 77, and my rep with Ebon Blade is 'Friendly (5860/6000)'
That's 5% discount, making this mount cost 950G.
So in order for me to use 60% flying mount in Northrend I will have to pay 800G for Expert Riding skill, 1000G for Cold Weather Flying, 950G for the DK mount. (800+1000+950 = 2750G).
Another +5000G for 280% flying. (2750+5000 = 7750G)

Now I'll come up with couple of scenarios.

A. You're the cheapest miser in the world and want to spend the least as possible. You don't care about looks.
Cheap flying mount in Shadowmoon Valley costs 100G.
For 60% flying mount, I will have to pay 100G for the mount, 800G for Expert Riding, 1000G for CWF. (100+800+1000 = 1900G)
For 280% flying mount, I will have to pay 200G for the flying mount in SMV, 5000G for Artisan Riding. (1900+200+5000 = 7100G)

B. You're not as cheap, but you also don't want to pour gold down the drain. You care about looks.
Cheap flying mount in SMV costs 100G.
For 60% flying mount, I will have pay 100G for the mount, 800G for Expert Riding, 1000G for CWF. (100+800+1000 = 1900G)
ⓐYour rep with Ebon Blade is 'Friendly (5% discount)
-----------For 280% DK flying mount, I will have to pay 950G for the mount, 5000G for Artisan Riding. (1900+950+5000 = 7850G)
ⓑYour rep with Ebon Blade is 'Honored (10% dc)'
-----------For 280% DK flying mount, I will have to pay 900G for the mount, 5000G for AR. (1900+900+5000 = 7800G)
ⓒYour rep with Ebon Blade is 'Revered (15% dc)'
-----------(you get the point) 7750G
ⓓYour rep with Ebon Blade is 'Exalted (20% dc)'
-----------7700G

C. You're rich. You have the mentality 'Time is gold'. You also care about looks, unique-ness.
800G for ExpRiding, 1000G for CWF, 5000G for ArtRiding. (800+1000+5000 = 6800G)
ⓐYour rep with EB is....
(Rep discount? screw that? You're rich~!~!~!)
DK flying mount cost 950G (most likely your rep with EB is 'Friendly')
6800+950 = 7750G

Me? I'm more of a type B person. So I'll be using B-ⓓ.

Use 60% Wind Rider mount from 77 to 80, open up Ebon Blade rep in Icecro.....uhhh.....ummm....I should check whether if DK already has EB phase change in Icecrown, as soon as I get my flying mount :P
Anyway... focus questing on Ebon Blade rep, ding 80, buy the Tabard, grind items in Heroic + gain rep with EB, which will cost me 7700G.
50G cheaper then me straight up buying DK flying mount, and also having an extra mount for the achievement.

To other people reading this, you can choose anyway you want according to your taste.
Note that if you plan on learning Artisan Riding skill as soon as you ding 77, my post is useless to you.

This post is about how you can save gold (or don't have the gold) when you plan on using 60% flying mount for some level.
A warning though, 60% is hell a slow, heck of a lot of time spend on traveling. You will realize how slow that is after you become accustomed to 280% mount speed.

Is the price doing down for patch 3.2 i mean come on if everthing else is going down shouldnt this thing i mean 500g sound resonable to me everthing else is being cut down by about half ne normal price

Комментарий от garymce

As of 3.2 going live, this mount is still 1000g, before Ebon Blade rep discounts.

Personally I'm not too fussed about it, it's just a fun extra, a cash sink for Death Knights.

Would look much better with something in between the wing bones, even if it was just generic rotting flesh.

until then I'll be unable to think of it as anything other than a flying zombie chicken.

just a question: swift flight form will go up to 310% if you have a 310% mount, so im wondering if it applies to this mount also?

Комментарий от 405759

Is there a version like this mount only looks like its from the cinamatic... big and better lol?

Комментарий от 467108

I think since this is a dk specific mount, that this should come with cold weather flying so when people get enough money to buy it they dont have to wait a long time to use it. In addition I think the dk specific flying mount should be a frost wyrm.

Комментарий от 331428

what if, it's like the matrix? the lich king really took over the world and turned us all into scourge, we were then frozen down and connected to a giant mashine so that we could live in this absurd reality and thus, never realise what had happened to us. bu then people started to remember, they formed a group called blizzard, and now more and more people are joining to defeat arthasa once and for all so that we could return from this absurd world where you can't whisper to people on the other side of the world, where girls can be fat and guys ugly and where everyone looks the same, with pretty much only three races.

Комментарий от 441551

this mount doesn't seems it's hard to get all what you need is be a death knight and go to the ebon hold in eastern plaguelands.... im not sure but i think that's the way because i didn't play as death knight before but maybe you will have problems with passing scarlet area which is (Tyr's Hand) all are elites there

Комментарий от 466641

Confirmed by myself that (as the tool tip says classes:Death Knight.) it cant be used by a mage. Bought it today, dont ask me how i got up, no hacks just slow fall :D. still waste of 950g (friendly with ebon).

Комментарий от ellmo

Why would people want to spend their precius time and try to get it on other classes, when it has Classes: Death Knight written right there. You think this is some kind of a typo? Or that you can ride it, as long as the GM won't notice? And even if they do you can get away with a warning?

It's a computer program and they don't overlook things.

Комментарий от whitedragon254

You can still see the original flying chicken via glitch or timing in the DK starter area. Look for the necromancers reanimating gryphon corpses, and sometimes the gryphons will fly down from really high up to aid the ghouls when they are attacking the entrances to New Avalon.

Комментарий от 402725

Green Proto-Drake is the same mount speed as the flying undead chicken...

Комментарий от ZanathKariashi

I bought mine awhile back, but I do feel they should lower the price and include 225 training as part of learning the mount. It's a class exclusive that is a retarded money sink for what it does....sure it upgrades to 310% ONCE you acquire at least 1 other 310...but it still looks stupid as hell....I remade my DK and I'm not even gonna bother with this PoS...just gonna get the frostwyrm from ICC achievements.

Комментарий от 315859

Looks better with the armour on, but the skeletal wings bother me somewhat. I think they should have left the feathers on the wings, because no matter how much I try to convince myself it's just a game and weirder things happen, I can't shake off the impression this thing should not be able to fly.

IMO, a MUCH better choice would have been the Ghost Gryphon of the Plaguelands.

Комментарий от TheBaldGuy

Ok, despite the fact that claiming an undead bird flapping it's wings to fly in a world filled with magic "doesn't make sense" is itself nonsensical, it does make sense. It is an undead bird. In the world Blizzard created, it follows the rules. How? Undead creatures retain some aspect of the former life. Living Gryphons flap their wings. That is instinct. That is how they fly. An undead one lacks the intelligence to know it doesn't need to flap it's wings. So it does.

Then again, magic in Blizzard involves some physical action (aka somatic component). Thus, it is also possible that in the world Blizzard created their rules state that magical things need to flap their wings to fly. This too makes sense in the context of the world it is in.

"Making sense" is basically saying something fits the context. Given the context and undead bird flapping it's wingbones to fly, magic or not, makes sense.

Комментарий от kkaman

for a lvl 60 to have this mount i think is just amazing, i got it at level 78 and still use it now im 80, it looks so awsome and my advice to people who can afford this mount and are thinking, shall i get this or stick with my normal everyday gryphon, get this!

Комментарий от 620007

Itd be sick if they just took off the wings and made it a ground mount. Itd also be sick if stuff like expert and artisan riding also affected the ground mount form. A 280% ground mount, usable in Azeroth would be my dream for this game.

Комментарий от 442279

After testing today it appears this mount does not scale to 310% (310% mount obtained and compared to was Violet Proto-Drake).

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Anyone have a picture?

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Far as I can tell, it is the same model as the Archerus FP “skeletal canary”.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

It costs 1000 gold at normal faction, scaling down with cost based on reputation. It has a different model then the 'skeletan canary' one, and looks relatively nice. It's a skeletan bird with glowing blue eyes and a glowing blue skull face on the barding.

Interestingly, it scales according to your riding skill. So at 225 riding, it is a 60% speed mount. At 300 riding, it is a 280% speed mount.

So with 225 skill, it's likely best to buy a 100 gold mount from BC. However, once you save up that 5000 gold for Artisan riding, you can pick this up for a thousand gold, saving half the price of a similar mount in Dalaran, while also avoiding the grind for BC faction as a Death Knight.

Edited, Dec 31st 2008 6:04pm by Batrius

Комментарий от Allakhazam

I’ll see if I can put a picture up shortly.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

It only cost 950g in Archerus

Комментарий от Allakhazam

A picture would be great, hope it is not just like the skeletal griffin we ride out of Archerus. :( Think looks like a skeletal canary or something. rather lame.

Question: It says "scales to riding skill". I wonder if the Unholy-tree talent "rides a pale house which gives you up to a 20% increase will be figured in this basic flying mounts speed?

Комментарий от Sylkie

It's now 2022 and things have changed.

You can purchase this mount from Quartermaster Ozorg, which is in the Heart of Acherus.

Once through the death gate through to Ebon Hold, you go downstairs and he is standing to the left as you go into the great room.
