While the process behind obtaining the mount isn\u2019t necessarily difficult, farming for it can get tedious at times with how unbelievably low of a chance you have of receiving it.\u00a0 Running the Mogu\u2019shan Vaults raid and taking down Elegon, the source of (and model for) the mount, is a straightforward task. The raid is nearly 10 years old, and every enemy is relatively easy to defeat. Thankfully, the only difficult factor that goes into obtaining the Astral Cloud Serpent for yourself is raw luck. If you invest enough time and attempt the raid enough times, the mount could eventually be yours.\u00a0 Here\u2019s how to get World of Warcraft\u2019s Astral Cloud Serpent for yourself.\u00a0 Clearing the Mogu\u2019shan Vaults The Astral Cloud Serpent drops off Elegon, the fifth boss of the Mogu\u2019shan Vaults raid. The mount is part of Elegon\u2019s loot table on both Normal and Heroic difficulties. Since Elegon is the fifth boss of the Vaults, you don\u2019t need to clear the entire raid to have a chance at the mount.\u00a0 The entrance to the Mogu\u2019shan Vaults can be found southwest of Zouchin Village in Kun-Lai Summit at coordinates [60, 39]. You\u2019ll want to take a portal to the Jade Forest from your faction\u2019s capital and fly to Zouchin Village to reach the raid in the shortest amount of time.\u00a0 Once inside, run the raid as you normally would until you reach Elegon. Mogu\u2019shan Vaults is an incredibly linear instance, so don\u2019t worry about any diverting paths that might take you away from your end goal. Plus, with the raid being nearly a decade old, it\u2019s easy to clear, and every enemy will fall over in one or two hits from a well-geared max-level character.\u00a0 Related: Easiest mounts to farm in World of Warcraft Elegon, the fifth boss, can be found in the Engine of Nalak\u2019Sha portion of the instance. When you arrive there, you can start the Elegon encounter by speaking with Lorewalker Cho, who\u2019s followed you through the raid up until this point. After a short amount of dialogue, Elegon will spawn, and you\u2019ll be able to try to down the boss for a chance at the mount. Upon your eventual victory, an ethereal cache will drop in front of the boss\u2019 platform. Open it and hope for the best.\u00a0 What is the drop rate for the Astral Cloud Serpent? The drop rate of the Astral Cloud Serpent is incredibly low; it's right there alongside other rare mounts like Invincible, the Glacial Tidestorm, and other end-of-raid mounts. The mount has anywhere between a one and four percent chance to drop off Elegon, according to WoW coverage site and database Wowhead. Keep in mind that the drop chance will always be low from run to run and that you won\u2019t be guaranteed to snag the Astral Cloud Serpent just by running it over 100 times. It could theoretically take players several hundred attempts before the mount falls into their hands.\u00a0","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/17075022\/WoW-AstralCloudSerpent-Flying-scaled.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/595022"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1865"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=595022"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/595022\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":919759,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/595022\/revisions\/919759"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/595026"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=595022"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=595022"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=595022"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=595022"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=595022"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=595022"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=595022"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}

While the process behind obtaining the mount isn\u2019t necessarily difficult, farming for it can get tedious at times with how unbelievably low of a chance you have of receiving it.\u00a0 Running the Mogu\u2019shan Vaults raid and taking down Elegon, the source of (and model for) the mount, is a straightforward task. The raid is nearly 10 years old, and every enemy is relatively easy to defeat. Thankfully, the only difficult factor that goes into obtaining the Astral Cloud Serpent for yourself is raw luck. If you invest enough time and attempt the raid enough times, the mount could eventually be yours.\u00a0 Here\u2019s how to get World of Warcraft\u2019s Astral Cloud Serpent for yourself.\u00a0 Clearing the Mogu\u2019shan Vaults The Astral Cloud Serpent drops off Elegon, the fifth boss of the Mogu\u2019shan Vaults raid. The mount is part of Elegon\u2019s loot table on both Normal and Heroic difficulties. Since Elegon is the fifth boss of the Vaults, you don\u2019t need to clear the entire raid to have a chance at the mount.\u00a0 The entrance to the Mogu\u2019shan Vaults can be found southwest of Zouchin Village in Kun-Lai Summit at coordinates [60, 39]. You\u2019ll want to take a portal to the Jade Forest from your faction\u2019s capital and fly to Zouchin Village to reach the raid in the shortest amount of time.\u00a0 Once inside, run the raid as you normally would until you reach Elegon. Mogu\u2019shan Vaults is an incredibly linear instance, so don\u2019t worry about any diverting paths that might take you away from your end goal. Plus, with the raid being nearly a decade old, it\u2019s easy to clear, and every enemy will fall over in one or two hits from a well-geared max-level character.\u00a0 Related: Easiest mounts to farm in World of Warcraft Elegon, the fifth boss, can be found in the Engine of Nalak\u2019Sha portion of the instance. When you arrive there, you can start the Elegon encounter by speaking with Lorewalker Cho, who\u2019s followed you through the raid up until this point. After a short amount of dialogue, Elegon will spawn, and you\u2019ll be able to try to down the boss for a chance at the mount. Upon your eventual victory, an ethereal cache will drop in front of the boss\u2019 platform. Open it and hope for the best.\u00a0 What is the drop rate for the Astral Cloud Serpent? The drop rate of the Astral Cloud Serpent is incredibly low; it's right there alongside other rare mounts like Invincible, the Glacial Tidestorm, and other end-of-raid mounts. The mount has anywhere between a one and four percent chance to drop off Elegon, according to WoW coverage site and database Wowhead. Keep in mind that the drop chance will always be low from run to run and that you won\u2019t be guaranteed to snag the Astral Cloud Serpent just by running it over 100 times. It could theoretically take players several hundred attempts before the mount falls into their hands.\u00a0","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/17075022\/WoW-AstralCloudSerpent-Flying-scaled.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/595022"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1865"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=595022"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/595022\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":919759,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/595022\/revisions\/919759"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/595026"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=595022"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=595022"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=595022"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=595022"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=595022"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=595022"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=595022"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
