The scepter is a rare find from Tol’Vir archaeology. In order to obtain this mount for yourself you’ll need The Scepter of Azj’Aqir, a Tol’Vir sorcerer who mastered summoning Silithid outside the kingdom of Ahn’Qiraj. The Ultramarine Battle Tank shares a model with the Blue Battle Tank available in Ahn’Qiraj, but unlike it’s blue counterpart this new silithid can be used anywhere in Azeroth like a normal ground mount. While the Black Qiraji Battle Tank was the only silithid mount useable outside of Ahn’Qiraj from Vanilla to Wrath, the Cataclysm brought Archaeology and with it a sturdier silithid. But fret not fellow entomologists! The Cataclysm unearthed heartier breed of Silithid! The mounts count towards collecting achievements, but can still only be used within Ahn’Qiraj. The four resonating crystals still drop today, and each one allows you to add its respective mount to your mount journal.

These are the Blue, Green, Yellow, and Red Qiraji Battle Tanks respectively, all of which are dropped by trash mobs within the raid. Having a mount that was usable in Ahn’Qiraj was important: the raids massive size meant players had to run an incredibly long distance after wiping on later bosses, and Silithids mounts were originally the only mounts usable within the fallen city.įor players who didn’t get the legendary Black Silithid, there were four less prestigious mounts available. My Red Qiraji Battle Tank screams, for he knows that I never run Ahn’Qiraj anymore and he will most likely not see the light of day for several more years… A purple and gold silithid this mount was unique not only for it’s legendary status, but because it was the only silithid mount usable outside of the Ahn’Qiraj raid. The reward for being the first player to ring the gong on each realm was the Black Qiraji Battle Tank, the first (and only) legendary mount ever available to players. The gong could only be rung by players who had completed a long questline that took them through the previous two raids (Molten Core and Blackwing Lair) and made them kill deadly world bosses like Doctor Weavil, all while racing against other players on their realm.

This marked the opening of the gates of Ahn’Qiraj and the beginning of the Alliance and Horde’s war with the Qiraji Empire which culminated in the death of the Old God C’Thun in the Ahn’Qiraj raid. January 21-23rd marks the Call of the Scarab, an in game event commemorating the first ringing of the Scarab Gong. Hiding beneath the sands of Silithus the remnants of the Qiraji empire scuttle to and fro.
