This is a mob that spawns in Maldraxxus. He is listed as having a mount on his loot table.
I have personally never seen it drop, for myself or anyone around me. There are no confirmed drops on WoWhead.
Can anyone prove it drops? I DO NOT want “Well, I saw it but…” I want armoury links. Proof. If there isn’t any, I’m concerned this drop may be bugged. The Heavenly Onyx Cloud Serpent was bugged for a while and wasn’t dropping, so there is precedence for this.
A mob, short for mobile is a computer-controlled non-player character in a computer game such as an MMORPG or MUD. Depending on context, every and any such characters in a game may be considered to be a “mob”, or usage of the term may be limited to hostile NPCs and/or NPCs vulnerable to attack.
Speaking of that mount… I really like the armored version from the Maldraxxus Covenant. A long with the plate and mail armor. I complimented the plate armor when I first seen it. Anyways I had to do a double take with the Covenant armor, the mount, and Barrier of the Chosen. (shield) When I seen it all paired together today. If I could post an image I would, but it definitely got my attention.
Wow someone did a good job there. Complements everything perfectly.
Ya I’ve argued the usage of mob in the past. It is confusing just because mob would usually reference more than one enemy. Like if you were in a dungeon and a tank says “pulling this mob”, you would think it was more than one enemy. I’ve been playing since Vanilla and somewhere along the lines mob went from a group to a singular enemy.
