Очень интересный маунт, особенно для тех, кто качает первого персонажа. Смысл в следующем:

НПС в К-3 в Грозовой гряде https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/ru/npc=30464#abilities дает его вам на 77 лвл совершенно бесплатно, сам маунт хоть и имеет скорость 60%, но есть большой плюс:

- на его использование не нужно знание "Полеты в непогоду"

- есть и минус- использовать можно только в Грозовой гряде, и он не заноситься в список транспорта, а вызывать нужно его по старинке- юзать из сумки.

Но для тех кто достиг 77 лвл, и нет денег для полетов в Норде- ваш выбор, тем более в грозовой гряде на дейли квестах, запросто можно в последующем накопить и на способность - "Полеты в непогоду"

Пару фактов:

-- Этот маунт кастуется 2 секунды
-- Он кастуется на бегу
-- Он кастуется в падении
-- Он кастуется в бою
-- Те у кого к 77 уже есть флай - несчастные люди :Р

Кстати недавно летел вместе с дургом (у меня покупной маунт, у него этот). Вдруг заметил зеленую стрелку (залезть) на его маунте. Нажал, в итоге я сел на его место и управлял его ветрокрылом, он также остался сидеть.

Когда его вернут вкурсе кто-нибудь?

Комментарий от 583202

Теперь он стоит 100 золотых

As of this date, this mount counts as a Vehicle and thus (just tested this):

You won't get dismounted if dazed by a mob
You can mount it while in PvE or PvP combat
If you dismount while in the air, you get slowfall

Enjoy your free PvP escape! :)

Limitations are however:

Can only be flown in the zones Ice Crown, Storm Peaks and Sholazar Basin
60% Flying speed
If you log out while in the air, you will fall down upon logging in, because the mount disappears

Enjoy getting nowhere in all the time in the world! :)

Best. Item. Ever. for poor people like myself :(

Комментарий от 274789

Also, if you accidentally fall from a great height or get knocked off while in mid-flight for whatever reason, you can mount up on this while you're falling. Came in very handy when I accidentally fell from the cliffs in Winterspring down into Sholazar Basin (don't ask).

Use this command to "dismount";

/script VehicleExit()

For some odd reason I had no "Exit Vehicle"-button, but it could be due to buggy Bartender4.

What level do you need to be to get this?

My level 71 death knight cant get this :(

If I get cold-winter flying, does this go away?

I really really like killing people in towns and then mounting away while the gaurds are on me >:]

Free Mine Sweeper achivement with this beaty :)

Комментарий от Marimalino

Very good mount for the one that wants to get

Комментарий от Scar7500

adding:

/script VehicleExit()

to your mount macro makes exiting this super awesome mount easier

/script VehicleExit()
/script local m=GetZoneText() if (m=="Dalaran" or m=="Wintergrasp") and (GetSubZoneText()~="Krasus' Landing") then CallCompanion("MOUNT", 1);end
/use Bronze Drake; black war raptor
/dismount

is what i use, for example.

**** NO LONGER USABLE IN COMBAT OR WHILE MOVING

Комментарий от 310954

You can actually dive with this mount! land on the ground and walk in the water WITHOUT flying. then you will get down in the water without dismounting.

Комментарий от Mojorx

Can we narrow this down a lil ? 77 DK (friends toon) with no flying skill got the loaner riens , is this a mater of not having a flyer , or no 280% skill , or Cold Weather Flying ? I'm afraid to get "too" skilled to acuire this lil treasure !

Комментарий от atomsk87

Another cool fact bout it, but not so useful.

If you jump into another vehicle while mounting the windrider, the wind rider will still follow you around.

Do that 10 times and u have This

Have fun with ur slightly used windriders.

Комментарий от Malvard

use after activating https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/item=30847 for the most epic way to mount in the game.

Also after doing so, the mount will have a parachute attached as u fly, makes it look pretty pathetic, lol

Комментарий от Malsherz

Since this mount does count as a vehicle and not an actual mount I was able to complete the quest in Storm Peaks to get the tool in the middle of the mine field without having to walk through it myself. I was also able to complete the achievement Mine Sweeper(https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/achievement=1428) without getting the knockback effect and getting dismounted.

Lol, funny that noone have noticed, but at can carry more then one person, I jumped on my mates Wind Rider :P I flew with it, pretty funny to control anothers flying mount :P My mate says he can't /dance, maybe because I'm on it. I have no problem dancing, tho :P

Комментарий от 163299

If ths item doesn't dissappear when u DO get cold flying... WHY on earth can't I get it once I have cold flying? /cry oh /cry!

Комментарий от 288486

Did you guys know that if you have someone who have the loaned mount in your party, you could ride with them? lol. try it. i freaked out!

EDIT - i think you have to have a loaned mount as well though.

Awsome this thing saved my broke ass

Комментарий от taurenmoo812

The idea of this mount is to give players who don't have the 1k gold they need for cold weather flying in northrend.

You can get this mount if you have basic flying skill, I'm not sure about epic flying skill, but if you don't pay for cold weather flying you can get this from the goblin in storm peaks.

A good idea, since storm peaks and icecrown Need a flying mount in order to move around, and not every player will have 1k gold at 77.

Also this mount is a same speed at basic flying mount, so its no slower then those ones, and I used 60% speed all through TBC so it makes no difference to me, don't write it off just because you fear the idea of a 60% mount.

Комментарий от desirie

Some recent patch turned this baby from a vehicle, to a mount. well, still not really a mount as it requires an item to summon, and does not get added to your mount tab. But all the fun stuff, like having a vehicle bar, and a second passenger doesn't seem to work anymore :(

Комментарий от 150126

Parachute is not included. Guess that's why it's a loaner.

Комментарий от Legbah

I acquired this on a 77 DK without even training basic (60%) flight skill. This is perfect for characters that just aren't worth the 2K gold required for flight + cold weather flying. Until 3.2 at least. ;)

Комментарий от 42643

can you still steal mount in 3.1.3?

Комментарий от drojann

As of patch 3.2, this item is no longer available from the vendor (unless there's a quest prereq), and can't be used. I had the item in my inventory and tried to use in Icecrown and got the message, "Can't use this item here." Went back to K3 and tried to use it in Storm Peaks and couldn't use it there either. Checked the vendor and he's missing his original flavor text.

Комментарий от 281529

I tried using the mount while in Brunhildar Village

can't be used anymore, wtf?

Комментарий от dehotz

As noted on the Loaned Gryphon Reins page this is currently broke as of 3.2. It only returns the message "You can't use that here." Apparently it still works if you buy or have bought the flying skills though. There are threads acknowledging this on the official forums, as of now there is still no blue notice I can find on this subject, guess we'll have to stay tuned for more info on this.

I have the expert flying, not epic, no coldweather stuff and I can't use it in the areas. Why?

Комментарий от 144747

This item is broken after 3.2, at least on my character. Petitioning the GM said the developers are aware of the problem, but they didn't give an ETA on a fix. I'm curious if it only happened to people that already had the mount, or if the item is just broken for everybody? Can anyone else still use it?

Комментарий от Lochlathan

This isn't working as of 3.2...It says "You cannot use this here" while I'm in the areas it says it's allowed in. :(

Комментарий от 438889

I bought my regular flying and the loaner mount works just fine with no, cold weather flying... Not sure if this is a fix or not but, I'm up and flying =)

Комментарий от foxcg

as of patch 3.2 this is bugged. It does not work in any of the zones specified. I tried destroying it and getting a new one but still the same bugged result.

Loaner mounts are now working properly! Rejoice!

Bugged as of 3.2. Mount seems to no longer work. Awaiting a fix or notification from Blizzard on official standing.

Комментарий от MintySinty

Lower the cold weather flying cost and this'll all be dandy.

Комментарий от 288482

After 3.2, many people complained how they can't use this anymore. Any reasons why? or is it working as intended?

Комментарий от davies

For people who didn't/don't know. This is the exact same speed as the (now) level 60 flying mount. 60% on land, 150% flying.

Комментарий от 285488

I looked around for a macro but could not find one, so I made one myself:

#showtooltip Loaned Wind Rider Reins
/use Loaned Wind Rider Reins
/cancelaura Loaned Wind Rider

enjoy :)

Комментарий от DryIceQueen

Doesn't work in WotLK classic. I can mount, but it will not fly.
I have a character I specifically did not get cold-weather flying on because I wanted to see how this works. kinda bummed.
