Two exclusive WoW mounts, the Blazing Royal Fire Hawk and the Golden Ashes of Al'ar, are making their debut in WoW China, starting January 15th. These mounts are reimagined versions of the incredibly rare Pureblood Fire Hawk and Ashes of Al'ar, respectively.
These additions celebrate the renewed partnership between NetEase and Blizzard, marking WoW's successful return to the Chinese market. The Blazing Royal Fire Hawk, reminiscent of the Pureblood Fire Hawk, boasts auspicious clouds within its wings while airborne, a nod to Chinese symbolism. The Golden Ashes of Al'ar, a gilded variation of its predecessor, features a black saddle and evocative flavor text referencing Kael'thas Sunstrider.
Acquisition Methods:
- Blazing Royal Fire Hawk: This mount is obtainable through a promotional event called the "Treasure Workshop," details of which are yet to be fully revealed.
- Golden Ashes of Al'ar: This mount is a reward from Landro’s Loot Box, priced at ¥200 (approximately $27 USD). The loot box contains one of eight items, including other coveted rewards such as the X-51 Nether Rocket X-TREME and the Swift Spectral Tiger. Group purchases offer bonus crates based on spending tiers.
While currently exclusive to WoW China, the possibility of an international release remains open. For now, players outside China can only appreciate these magnificent mounts from afar.
