Every New Mount in Patch 12.1 Curse of Ula'tek and How to Get Them
5 min read
Patch 12.1 is stuffed with new mounts. Venom serpents, wind serpents, writhing horrors, a soul-crushing mech, a pack of witch brooms and one very small owl. Some come from the Venomous Abyss raid, some from Season 2 keys and rated PvP, and a big chunk from the new Coiled Isle, its renown and its currencies. Here is the full list of what you can chase and exactly how each one is earned
Raid: The Venomous Abyss
Primeval Skyfriend Drops from Ula'tek, the final boss of the Venomous Abyss, on Mythic difficulty. This is the prestige mount of the tier, so it stays rare and Mythic-locked. If you are not clearing Mythic Ula'tek with a guild, a Venomous Abyss carry is the way in
Crimson Venomfang Rewarded from Glory of the Venomous Raider, the raid meta achievement. You earn it by completing the bonus objective on each boss across the raid, the same way every Glory mount works. These feats can be done on any raid difficulty, so a coordinated Normal or Heroic group can knock them out

Breath of Blight The Keystone Master mount for Season 2. Reach 2,000 Mythic+ rating during the season and it is yours, along with the seasonal Keystone Master title. This is the achievable push target for most players
Breath of Ruin The Keystone Legend mount, the recolor reserved for the top of the ladder. It takes a 3,000 Mythic+ rating, so this one is a serious push. A Mythic+ rating boost covers either tier if the climb stalls

Corroded Soul Crusher Unlocked at Delver's Journey Rank 5, then bought from Telemancer Astrandis for a datamined 10 Voidlight Marl. Push your Delver's Journey through the season and this mech is one of the cheaper mounts in the patch
Apophic Soul Crusher Rewarded from the Let Me Solo Him: Azta'rec achievement, which means soloing the Nemesis Delve boss Azta'rec. The recolor of the Corroded mech, earned the hard way instead of the cheap way

Hexflame Reaver Drops from the Prey target Ral'kala during the hunt Prey: A Ghostly Nightmare. Run that hunt through the Prey system to claim it
Rated PvP: Season 2
Venomous Gladiator's Goredrake The Gladiator mount for Season 2. Win 50 games in 3v3 rated Arena while sitting at Elite rank. This is the elite PvP flex of the patch
Vicious Lightbloom Boar The Season 2 Vicious mount, from the Venomous Combatant achievement: win rated Arena or Battleground matches while at 1,000 rating or higher. There is a Horde version and an Alliance version. This is the mid-tier rated reward, so you do not need Gladiator-level rating, just the wins at Combatant

Four mounts sit behind the isle's two reputations, Zul'jarra's Forces and Captain Tokka. Push the renown and these open up
Sea-Dwelling Isle Serpent Bought from Second Mate Sluggs for 2,500 Coiled Filament, but only once you hit Bloodsworn Crew, the top rank with Captain Tokka. That means working all the way through Tokka's fishing questlines and crew reputation first. Find Sluggs at 51.6, 49.8
Spirit of Tok'jara Earned from a time-gated six-quest storyline that starts with Ancestral Gems from Du'gal and ends with The Innocent Essence. You need Zul'jarra's Forces at Rank 10 to begin, and because it is time-gated, this one unlocks over several weeks rather than in a single sitting
Indigo Coiled Horror Bought from Jan'sari the Watchful for a datamined 6,000 Voidlight Marl, gated behind Zul'jarra's Forces Rank 17. Voidlight Marl comes from Curse Surges, so this is renown plus a Curse Surge grind. Jan'sari is at 58.8, 46.0
Violet-Backed Skyfang Also from Jan'sari the Watchful, for a datamined 8,000 Voidlight Marl, gated behind Zul'jarra's Forces Rank 19. The higher renown wall and the bigger price make this the longer of the two Jan'sari mounts

Auriferous Venomfang Rewarded from Treasures of the Coiled Isle, which means collecting all 22 hidden treasures scattered across the island. It is a solo exploration hunt with no combat gate. Full locations and unlock steps are in our Auriferous Venomfang guide
Ruby Writhe A rare drop from the Coiled Isle rare mobs. The same 12 rares you kill for the Coiled to Strike achievement have a chance to drop it, so keep farming them daily after the achievement is done
Topaz Skyfang Also a chance drop from the Coiled Isle rares, same route as the Ruby Writhe. Two mounts off one daily circuit is a good reason to keep it going

Emerald Skyfang Rewarded from the Pro Poison Patroller achievement, which asks you to complete 250 patrols in the Vaults of Atal'Utek. That is a long haul in the underground zone, so start it early and chip away
Venomous Coiler Rewarded from Assault the Vault, a meta achievement for completing the Vaults of Atal'Utek achievements. If you are already grinding the Vaults for patrols and Corrosive Coin, this one comes along the way
Caustic Venomfang Bought from the Skull of Er'inye for a datamined 10,000 Corrosive Coin. Corrosive Coin is the Vaults of Atal'Utek currency, earned from the underground zone's patrols, strikes and incursions, so this is the single biggest currency wall of the patch. A Coiled Isle currency farm handles it if you would rather not grind the Vaults for a week

Witchwick's Rider brooms (Autumnal, Mossy, Moonlit, Blushing, Carmine, Scarlet) The full set of six broom mounts comes from the in-game shop for real money, likely sold individually or as a bundle
Whoofle Bramblewing The pygmy owl, also an in-game shop mount. The cutest mount of the patch, and the one people are already asking about
Leafmimic Chameleons (Verdant, Ember, Violet, Aqua) Four chameleon mounts coming to the Trading Post. You buy the active month's mount with Trader's Tender, so which one you can grab depends on the monthly rotation
Shadow Spirehawk A promotional mount. The exact promotion has not been detailed yet, so watch for how it is distributed closer to launch
Between Mythic Ula'tek, a Gladiator drake, a 3,000 key rating, 250 Vaults patrols and 10,000 Corrosive Coin, this patch locks a fair few of its best mounts behind the hardest and grindiest content in the game. If one of them is sitting just out of reach while the season clock runs down, KingBoost can put the mount in your collection and let you spend Season 2 on the parts you actually enjoy
