World of Warcraft: Maximize Your Chances of Catching the Legendary Riding Turtle Mount
World of Warcraft veterans know how challenging it is to stand out. One way to truly distinguish yourself is by acquiring rare mounts like the coveted Riding Turtle – a truly unique and impressive addition to any WoW collection. This guide will walk you through the process, maximizing your chances of success.
Securing this legendary mount requires obtaining rare loot cards, a process significantly aided by a substantial amount of in-game gold.
Understanding the Riding Turtle
Recent WoW pre-update changes have opened up opportunities for players to obtain exotic mounts like the Riding Turtle and Sea Turtle. These are collectible items, and the methods described below, while perfectly legal, may be adjusted by Blizzard in the future. Act now to secure yours!
The Angler's Approach
Hidden within your garrison's waters lies a treasure: Alliance players seek Lunarfall Carp, while Horde players hunt Frostdeep Minnow. These are obtained through your fishing shack. Returning the fish to the lake summons the Lunarfall Cavedweller (Alliance) or Frostdeep Cavedweller (Horde). These formidable creatures offer a chance to obtain the Riding Turtle and Sea Turtle.
Before embarking on this quest, you'll need the Draenor Angler achievement (catching 100 of each Enormous Fish species in Warlords of Draenor). This unlocks a level 3 garrison fishing shack, crucial for catching the carp and minnows (anecdotal evidence suggests this is nearly impossible without it). Even with the upgraded shack, the drop rate is a mere 3%, though utilizing top-tier gear and boosts can improve your odds.
Why Now's the Perfect Time
Previously, only the player who tagged the Cave Dweller received rewards. However, the latest patch allows raid groups of up to 40 players to share the loot, dramatically increasing your chances.
The odds have significantly improved. Previously, obtaining a Riding Turtle involved overcoming a 3% fishing drop rate and a 0.5% Cave Dweller drop rate. With a 40-player raid, you now have significantly more attempts.
While you don't need the Draenor Angler achievement to join a raid, group leaders might prioritize players who can demonstrate their ability to contribute. Finding a welcoming group, or forming your own, is key to maximizing your chances of success.
