*Spoiler alert: the post is Aurinko’s diary, so if you plan to see priest mount story in game with your own eyes, you may want to skip it.
Aurinko – Priest
Priest story is the most intriguing considering lore. You go to Azsuna shore to join Magni Bronzebeard, Brann Bronzebeard and a dwarven priest girl on their errand to discover a secret Titan vault!
It’s hidden underwater near the Maelstorm, so we go there by submarine:
Here we are, and we go deeper. Meanwhile Brann asks his brother how Azeroth talks to him (yes, the planet contains a Titan’s soul and she talks to Magni).
And we’re here, deep underwater. Brann looks for a lever, but the doors open by Magni’s tricks, as he knows many secrets now, and is supernatural.
We enter a cool hall, combining the beauty of Vash’jir outside and the Titan godlike architecture inside:
These balls of light encapsulate the only three sentinel birds left. We are briefed about it by a friendly mechagnome.
We must prove that we’re pure of heart and not submitting to the void lords and old gods by fighting the huge throng of titan creatures! Yeah, right… not submitted to Old Gods when one of my cooldowns throws me into madness :)
The encounter is long, contains many-many mobs, and requires running, positioning, dpsing, and mass dispelling some enemies. The fight was extremely interesting and fun. And strangely… it was very soothing and calming. I think it’s because we’re fighting very clean creatures and constructs of light rather than your common fire puddles and tendrils. And the room is very nice too.
Yay, we’re pure of heart! We can take the birdies home. But of course there would be a ceremony.
Here comes:
They also come in three colors:
The cutest things ever. I am and will be riding it.
You may read another mount stories for all classes:
Another awesome quest line it seems, thank you for sharing!
I have no alts, so it’s really nice to get a quick overview of what other clases get.
And what a great mount, so cute!

It has kitty paws :) As a cat person, I can’t ignore it.

Dispelling? For me I just went in, dotted up everything and it was done. Don’t think I went into void form either stuff died so fast. As to the Shadowpriest mount I was ok with it until I tried to fly. The purple confetti was so bad I landed after about 20 seconds and just filed the mount away into the ever use pile. I didn’t understand the Lore behind it. Maybe I have not played long enough or paid enough attention to the story. It just seemed kind of an odd choice to me.

Dispelling those light elementals was fun! You one-shot the whole room with one spell, and it’s not something that priests experience ever :)
Yeah, confetti is not so great.
Lore was great because it hinted about the Old Gods and their Void Lords. A direct link to what’s gonna be happening after Legion.

I had no idea they could be dispelled. I was fighting the waves while juggling two conversations and a request from someone to invite their Alts to guild. Oh, and I had real life cat aggro. Lol.

Hah, Marathal, ‘real life aggro’.
I will think totally different tomorrow when I “encounter” certain things in the real world :P
Respect for that level of multitasking you pull off!

I wouldn’t guess it, but they were telling it out loud (or writing in the middle of the screen) during the fight :) Anyways, a big fat hint that was hard to miss.

I’m usually good at seeing the notices to dispel, even when DBM says to and it is on cool down or ends up being something I can’t dispel. Some reason, I don’t recall seeing any notice. Unless there was a fix or something after the first day.

I haven’t seen any of the others but I loved the priest one. I always get a kick out of seeing Brann and any titan stuff.
