About Esquirla de estigia & Polvo de estigia:

Vara radiestésica de estigia allows you to track Stygia Nexus on the minimap, and when used nearby a Nexus, it will drain it, granting you a small amount of Stygia, as well as some Esquirla de estigia and Polvo de estigia.

About the Rune Puzzle:

Once you use your Vara radiestésica de estigia, you will be phased out and become a ghost, and a chest with 6 glowing runes will appear at the center of the platform. You can click on 2 of the glowing runes at a time to swap their positions around. To solve this puzzle, you need to pay attention to your surroundings - There are 6 spikes on the platform you're on, and each spike will have a glowing rune on top of them. You need to order the runes near the chest to match the order of the spikes on the platform. Be careful, as you DO have limited attempts, and if you fail enough times, you will not be able to attempt the puzzle again for TWO HOURS.
Once you match the runes with the pillars, the chest will open, giving you the Estela desmoronada. Once you obtain the Estela desmoronada, Ve'nari will have another item for sale - The Códice rúnico incompleto, for 1500 Estigia.

About Alma descarriada:

Roaming around Gorgoa, the River of Souls, you can find a Alma descarriada. This wolf soul will follow the flow of the river and despawn on the northern end, respawning at the southern end shortly after and beginning his path over again. To obtain his item, simply find, approach the wolf and interact with it. The wolf will enter your Soulkeeper and grant you a Alma de lobo dispuesta.

About Can de sombras feral:

After begin Can de sombras feral you are required to summon your Feral Shadehound, mount on it and bind it to you! Once you use the provided item, you will mount on the Feral Shadehound (it will start running wildly across The Maw, so use it in a safe place), and a vehicle bar will appear with four runes - The same four runes shown in the completed Crumbling Stele. Click on the runes on the order provided by the Crumbling Stele and you will bind the mount to you, completing the quest and granting you the Can de sombras vinculado.

Comentario de Kurtosis

Here's the wowhead post introducing this mount and how to get it, with helpful pictures.

Comentario de ZodiarccWoW

Remember the times when blizz created good content? Locking a mount behind exalted which you dont need anymore when youre exalted..

Comentario de lokl08

Having finally done it, so an opinion or two on this grind.

First, takes a long time. Solid 8-10 hours of farming with the dowser for the Stygia pieces, and another 2 hours roughly for the rest. So I estimate this will take about 10-12 hours minimum at best. But this will increase over time as more people will learn of the mount and start farming slivers and dust. This is due to the nodes not being shareable (so ye, great design blizz...). So expect increased competition for the nodes over time, and more frustration as you see a node being taken by someone else just before you get to it.

Secondly, the rest is a breeze to do. I think after you solve the puzzle and get the stele, you can do the following steps up to the binding ritual at the same time. I saw the spirit wolf right after the puzzle step, but didn't reach in time to interact with it. But got it before I finished the codex, I think. Guess one can also get the tools from the rare and craft the husk after the puzzle aswell.

So good luck to anyone attempting this, you are going to need it. Because this takes too long for an easy mount in my opinion.

Comentario de evil2850

Here's what I learned during completion of this secret (took 8 hours in total):
- Farming this doggy is so much easier and faster if you play a rogue or druid (stealth through most of the mobs)
- Farming it as a tank is also great since you can activate a def CD before you soak the Stygia Nexus - hence you don't need to kill the mobs.
- In both cases, you don't raise any attention of the eye of the jailor and can farm longer.
- I farmed 6+ hours straight and only raised the attention of the eye of the jailor because I was looting caches and Nightshades.
- It appears that in the Beastwarrens, you get more Stygia Silver than Stygia Dust compared to the other Maw areas (the difference was 20+ pieces in the end).
- Recommended farm spot: The Beastwarrens, area of the Hunt: Shadehounds event (5+ spots in the cave, 7+ spots in front of the cave, 4+ spots around the event area)

Enjoy!

Comentario de Nattahai

Just finished mine and have a few things that might be useful.

Regarding Alma descarriada / Alma de lobo dispuesta:
The Alma descarriada can be seen on minimap the same way (same icon) as the souls for the weekly covenant quest (Recuperar almas perdidas).
At this point I already had Estela desmoronada as well as Códice rúnico intacto in bag, not sure if it is needed for the icon to appear or not.

Regarding Polvo de estigia & Esquirla de estigia:

the Stygia Nexuses work the same way as herbs/deposits - there are fixed spawn points, but they don't have fixed respawn time as one of them is chosen randomly (or semi-randomly) - but the respawn seems pretty quick (about 15 mins-ish)
while you have the Vara radiestésica de estigia it's as you would have the tracking on (same dots on minimap) - this might also be a reason to turn off your tracking of other things (ie. Buscar hierbas), if you would want to focus on farming solely this mount, as otherwise you'll have it mixed up
having Cadena de levitación animada is really handy as quite a lot of the Stygia Nexuses are on high ground accessible by grappling point - but usually there is also another way how to get there (especially as Demon Hunter or with items like Azufre ígneo de Borr-Geth)
siphoning the Stygia Nexus gives you 12 points towards the Mirada del Carcelero
the siphoning is a channeled ability, but it does not show a channel bar - once you start siphoning the nexus will disappear no matter if you collect it whole or not
damage does not seem to affect the siphon, so unless you die or get hard-cc'd you should be fine collecting them with mobs on you
moving does cancel the siphon

Regarding Can de sombras feral (binding of the crafted mount):
You can't open the Estela desmoronada from your bags while on the shadehound you have to bind - so either take a note or have it somewhere else prepared for reference (it does seem to be the same as in the guide, so you can just open that)

Good hunting!
Some assumptions / observations might be wrong or incomplete, will try to update this post as I learn more. :)

Comentario de jeykama

If you need a macro, try this (I just modified it with the Shadehound's ID):
/run if(C_Map.GetBestMapForUnit("player")==1543)then C_MountJournal.SummonByID(1441);else C_MountJournal.SummonByID(0);end

It will detect if you're in the Maw and use Bound Shadehound if so, otherwise it will use the Favorite Mounts button.

Comentario de Kazi12

I recorded the locations of Stygia Nexuses I found while collecting the materials for the Bound Shadehound. This information may overlap with what other people are saying, but I already typed it out. (copying this comment to other pages so the information is easy to find).

This is not an exhaustive list but should be enough to get anyone started on their search.

Some tips/suggestions:

1. DO NOT MOVE while channeling the Nexus or you will not get the full amount of materials and still despawn it.

2. Only one player can loot each Nexus. Use a low-pop server, or warmode if you're feeling confident to secure spawns.

3. Rogue, Hunter, Mage, Druid are the best classes to collect these on. A lot of the spawns are behind/surrounded by enemies, so if you aren't one of those classes, I recommend bringing some invisibility potions.

4. Buy the grappling hook upgrade if you haven't already: many of the spawns are on top of pillars only accessible by grappling.

5. Steal shadehounds, use goblin gliders, movement abilities, and anything else you can think of to get around faster. Use the chaotic riftstones upgrade and look out for spawns along your path. Also, buy the Ve'nari teleport and use it as needed, it will save you a lot of time.

6. Start with a fresh Eye of the Jailer. The nexuses contribute toward increasing its level, and you don't want to be bombarded by towers or harassed by assassins for hours on end.

7. The node marks on the minimap are only visible when you are close to the spawn, so check each coordinate carefully. The tomtom map point may also block the spawn point visually, so remove waypoints as you check them.

8. Find a circular path that works for you. I would go from the sanctuary through the beastwarrens, take the bridge to perdition hold and check every point there, and then check between Zovaal's Cauldron and the Tremaculum.

Here are the spawn points I found, please add to this list if you find any others:

How to get the Can de sombras vinculado mount

Video Guide: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=siGXfMWdzmo

Pre-requisites: Be Appreciated by Ve'nari, have 3,500 Estigia, have learned Cadena de levitación animada. Helpful: Palabras de protección is active because of Capa de alma de asesino

Buy Vara radiestésica de estigia for 1,500 Estigia
Go to Domination Keep in Perdition Hold (approx at 23.0, 68.4), and grapple up 1 level. Go to the left, and go up the stairs to a second hook at about 24.0, 75.5.
Use your extra action button and solve the Rune Puzzle to get Estela desmoronada by making the runes above the chest match the runes on the spikes. Spike #1 was to your left grappling up and goes clockwise. You have limited attempts before being locked out for two hours. If this happens, use the time to farm
Return to Ve'nari and buy Códice rúnico incompleto for 2,000 Estigia.
Retrieve Página del códice rúnico: Forja from the cave in the Beast Warrens located at 48.8, 84.7. The page is in the back left.
Retrieve Página del códice rúnico: Almas from Perdition Hold located at 27.2, 72.3.
Retrieve Página del códice rúnico: Vinculación from Tremaculum at 24.6,12.67. The teleport up is at 27.6,17.3.
Read all the pages by clicking on them to get Códice rúnico intacto
Pet Alma descarriada in the River of souls to get Alma de lobo dispuesta. Go against the current and you'll eventually find him.
Kill the rare Forjaalmas Rhovus to get Herramientas de forjaalmas
Spend the next 2 - 8 hours of your life farming 200 Polvo de estigia and 200 Esquirla de estigia. The Vara radiestésica de estigia will allow you to see Stygia Nexus on the minimap. On the ground these look like glowing green orbs. Stand next to one and click on the Vara radiestésica de estigia. Only one person can tap a nexus at a time. I recommend not going over eye 2 for this.
Celebrate the end of grinding
Go to Yunque de almacero (located at the very top of Domination Keep at 20.2,67.0-You will need to grapple hook up the side) to create 20 Barra de estigia
Create Cascarón acorazado by combining 20 Barra de estigia with Herramientas de forjaalmas
Optional: Take the Chaotic Rift to get down (it takes you to Zovaal's Cauldron)
Go to the Binding alter at 45.2,48.2 to combine Cascarón acorazado with Alma de lobo dispuesta to get Can de sombras feral
Read Estela desmoronada to get the rune order
Use Can de sombras feral to get start Can de sombras feral which starts the binding ritual
Run Can de sombras feral into a cage or pillar to not have to bother with mob agro while you punch in the correct rune order.
This completes Can de sombras feral which gives Can de sombras vinculado
Learn the mount, brag to guildies/friends

A quick note on farming. When Palabras de protección is active, as long as you don't turn it in, you can cloak easily in Perdition Hold, which makes Perdition Hold ideal for farming Polvo de estigia and Esquirla de estigia. It also makes it easier to get Página del códice rúnico: Almas as well as get to Go to Yunque de almacero.

Another thing I noticed is that when you collect resources from one stygia nexus, another one seems to spawn almost instantly. I think there are two active nexus in each particular sub-zone of the maw. This is why camping a spot doesn't seem to work as the nexus are random. HOWEVER, I think some more more common spawn locations than others. If you are having trouble finding one, I'd check the more rare spots, which for Perdition Hold is at the very very top of Dominion Keep as well as the very southern part where your Capa de alma de asesino will fall off.

Not as resilient as the Stolen Shadehound. You will get stunned/slowed riding it and you will experience fall damage with this mount. Be aware! :-)

Add this line below your mount macro to handle the Maw mounts:

/use Bound Shadehound

Here is my full mount macro for reference. The /cast line at the bottom with /stopmacro is so it shows an icon when you're mounted instead of just the ?.

Discovered (new?) grapple points to get to this anvil (no need for Exos' item, or to be a Venthyr):
/way 23, 67 near Colossus
/way 22.16, 71.07 near the wall (same level you walked to get to the grapple of the puzzle chest, but you turn to the wall to the anvil place)

Comentario de Grumlok

Just finished grinding the mats for this. Probably spent 8-10 active hours farming for the nexus spots. Piece of advice, if you have a DH you have a huge advantage to getting to the spawns first if you are camping the grapple areas. Bring goblin gliders with you as well, and make sure you're eye of the jailor is below level 2.

Comentario de Pihalecsmrti

Came here just because of the comments on the news and opinions of certain players, that this mount is easier to obtain than the other 2 retrospective Maw mounts (Mawsworn Soulhunter and Corridor creeper).

If you're doing this on a high pop realm (Kazzak for me), I can assure you, that this mount will be hell to obtain, and not even close to the Corridor creeper that comes from the Twisting corridors layer 8. Ofcourse TC is challenging, but going in there as a group of 5 people that have a few brain cells as in they know which anima powers to take, it's so much easier to get than this one.

Currently, I have all steps done, aside from the 200 of each reagent. At the time of writing, I'm sitting at 180 slivers and around 150 dusts. Only collecting those 180 & 150 materials, took a whooping 15 hours already, and that's considering I have the twisting corridors mount. Due to so much competition, this is extremly hard to do in 'normal' hours, especially on wednesday and the weekend, because the Maw will be full of people at those times. I lost roughly 70 nexuses pretty much infront of my eyes due to competition. The best way to get this, is to either wait for a long time for alot of players to obtain it (most likely in 9.1 when everyone will be able to mount up in the Maw, meaning people won't give a crap about this mount), or farm this from 6am to 8am server time, like I'm doing currently for the past 2 days. You will still face competition, but not that much. In the mornings, I get roughly 30 material per hour, which is a huge upgrade from finding maybe 1-2 nexuses / hour in busy hours (translates to 3-6 materials per hour, which is where I lost atleast 8 hours).

Also, consider me having the Corridor creeper, which speeds up searching by alot! If I would be going on feet, this would take atleast 4-5 hours of extra time.

A few tips maybe. Don't waste your time collecting these in The Beastwarrens and in the Perdition hold. The beastwarrens ones are hidden under caves, meaning you will spend alot of time to get to them, as well as pulling alot of mobs which will either bother you, or will raise your Eye of the Jailer since you will most likely have to kill them, while the Perdition hold is riddled with elite mobs that hit insanely hard unless you are tank or have a very high ilvl. The most efficient strategy is to make nice circles around the 'Normal' part of the Maw while avoiding as much mobs as possible.

Anyways, good luck on farming fellow collectors!

Comentario de starfire713

After much some experimenting with what was the best way to lazy afk camp for siphon nodes, because $%^& running around this horrible zone, I think I figured out a good solution. In my experience farming for these late at night, the fart clouds seem to spawn in a set cluster track similar to how mining nodes were in classic. There can only be one spawn up at a given time, and once you siphon that node the timer resets for that set (7-8 ish minutes). This is why you could camp a single location late at night and never see anything pop up for an hour, because said node was up somewhere else. The best spot I found was hiding in the back of Calcis (19, 34 roughly on the ledges). You can see all but 2-3 of the nodes in that track in a mob safe afk spot. If it's been about 10 minutes and you haven't seen a respawn, run out and check 23,34 and 21,39. I was able to happily play another game while I just slowly afk farmed instead of running around this awful zone, and getting aggro on every mob and their hamster mothers.

Comentario de morituri

Plenty of posts already with good guides to get this mount. However, a few words to ease your farming pain.

At this moment (roughly a week after 9.05) there are tons of people farming the Esquirla de estigia and the Polvo de estigia. Noting that these "nexuses" (where you 'dowse' for those 2 items) are farmable by only 1-person-at-a-time, it has become upsteep to farm them. So, after farming for more 10 hours to get the 200 each, you may keep these in mind:

1. If your character isn't Appreciative of rep, try to use a char that can stealth. There, raising the rep will be easier and then easier to farm the items mentioned above. Otherwise, your presence in the (Tiers of the) Eye of the Jailer, will go up fast and you won't be able to keep farming.
2. Don't engage in any quest or in any unnecessary fight, until you're done farming.
3. Early mornings or late nights are better.
4. IMPORTANT: Use the Rifstones often. They will give you a bird's eye view of the land while flying and you'll notice some stygia nexuses on path taken on the minimap. So, you can come back on ground and farm them.
5. I tried the following the coords from posts, but since there are so many people farming, most of the time the spots of the coords are empty. So I rather invested the time looping around the areas that seemed more productible. Like the areas between the Tremaculum and Calcis. The center and west of the Beastwarrens was fairly good too. But expect riding for 5+ minutes just to find a nexus. Which then sometimes will render only 1 dust or 1 sliver, while others may give 2 of each.

The fact that we will mount in the Maw after the next patch, makes you wonder if this lengthy farming is worth. This probably depends on the alts your working on. Meaning, your alts could be riding in the Maw for a couple of months before the next patch. If you're already Appreciative, there's hardly anything interesting to do in the Maw after that. So it isn't enticing to go after the mount. Your choice.

EDIT: Spoiler alert... Watch out where you're standing when you "summon" the hound at the altar. It will start running wild with you on top until you enter the code in right order. If you're close to the edge (which the altar is) you might fall off. Well, maybe it's coded to not fall =D

Here is a macro that will mount up with a maw mount if you are in the maw. If you are not in the maw, then it selects a flyable mount if in a flyable zone. if not in a flyable zone, then it picks a ground mount. The mount IDs for the 3 shadehounds are included if you want to swap them out.

--maw mount IDs are: 1441,1442,1304
/dismount
/leavevehicle
/run m=C_Map.GetBestMapForUnit("player");if(m==1543 or m==1648)then C_MountJournal.SummonByID(1441);end
/stopmacro
/use Grove Defiler;Snapback Scuttler

Comentario de Thodric

I suggest players do this with Warmode enabled as Warmode shards are pretty quiet in the Maw. I barely came across other players farming nodes, and one late evening I was literally the only player doing it. The best location to farm is the south east section of the Maw. Most spires and caves are spawn points. Also, the Assassin Shroud / Cloak item from the weekly is very handy for getting to and from the anvil you need to craft, so wait until you complete the mission if it's available.

You can mute the spooky ambience sound of the mount by running the following commands:

/run MuteSoundFile(3747229)
/run MuteSoundFile(3747231)
/run MuteSoundFile(3747239)

Hint: To unmute, simply replace "MuteSoundFile" with "UnmuteSoundFile".

These will mute the following sound files, which may also affect other NPCs:

mon_mawsworn_loop_01_171773 (3747229)
mon_mawsworn_loop_02_171773 (3747231)
mon_mawsworn_loop_03_171773 (3747239)

Tip: Use a addon, such as Leatrix Plus or MuteSoundFile, for better handling of such stuff.

Comentario de MungoWarlock

For farming the Stygia materials from the Maw I used a tactic and was fortunate enough for the 'Death Elementals' hunt to be up because it reduces the number of mobs in the area quite considerably.

On Wednesday, following the server reset and issuing of the quest to gather souls from the Maw most will (unless reading this) opt to go for the quest in which case a) If in progress they will have a LOAD of clutter on the minimap and b) If they have done it they will have a higher level on Eye of the Jailor. Because of these 2 factors there will be far less competition for the Stygia nexus so avoid that quest or abandon it until later.

Go to Beast Warrens 49.51, 74.26 and you have visibility of about 9 spawn spots for Stygia Nexus and you should see one pop up every 1-2mins.

Enjoy, it was a predictable grind but everything came to this one spot with pretty much zero competition for resources.

I cleared pretty much every mob that popped up but they are small on the jailor scale and don't contribute to the scale much.

I started on about 15 that I had previously done, ground about 150 on Wednesday night then got up before the reset in the morning (remember folks still have their eye cooldown) and did up to 190. Still nobody turning up and I cleaned off the grind in about 30 mins.

Remember, having a very small number of folks grinding in your area is actually a bonus because if they aren't camping the spot they increase the chance of spawning in yours.

HTH :)

Comentario de Corrimal

pokakap's guide was a godsend.

A few additional items of note as I did this as a Shadow Priest

Soulforger Rhovus seems to be on a 1 hour timer based on the last kill - or at least it was for me
the Rune Codex Page: Souls can also be found where Dolos is (27.92 60.49) - that is where I found mine
the assasin's Soulcloak is a must - so if Words of Warding is up - grab that and just plow through the grinding
nice trick with the Soulcloak - if you can soak the damage for the 1 second cast time it will take you out of combat. So as a priest - using Fade to extract the Silver and Dust, and then quickly switching to the cloak allows you to get these a bit faster if you are in a race with a couple of other people for the nodes
I found that in Perdition Hold the Stygia Nexus nodes alternated between the alter of domination area (24 68) and the place where you first picked up the Soulcloak (34 67). I ended up being closer to 12 hours as I had camped out the alter of domination. But realized about 2/3 of the way through that I had time to run back and forth between the two areas which would have drastically cut down on farming time. I had tried the Beastwarrens as others had suggested but I found only two even with HandyNotes enabled. So bailed on that and went back to PH.
As a Priest I finally found a decent use for Mind Vision. Camping out in one spot I could survey all of Perdition Hold for Stygia Nexus nodes and then just hope that I could get there before someone else noticed.
If you look at Spider's video on how to get to the Soulsteel Anvil, he does it the hard way. Once you grapple up to the first ledge - proceed to your left, go part way up the stairs and turn around (i.e. similar route you take to get the Crumbling Stele). You'll find the grapple points to get up to the top
I made the mistake of parking my character next to a 'v' in a cliff facing the wall thinking that this might be a good substitute for a pillar or a cage when activating the Feral Shadehound. It wasn't - the silly thing ran straight up the side of the cliff face. So don't bank on a spot that you think is unaccessible as being a safe spot to rez the shadehound just because you can't climb it.
The runes are literally runes - there are only 4 but you might want to use something like "snip and sketch" to grab a copy of them for reference as you are frantically trying not to run into a mob or over a cliff. That being said you really only need to pay attention to the first two as they are colour coded (3 blue and 1 yellow) and you'll be able to figure out the last two without too much of a challenge

Overall this wasn't as bad as it sounded - with the exception of the grinding of the nexus nodes. That is really where all your time is going to be soaked up if you are trying to farm them.

If you wan't to include the new area 'Korthia' in the macro:
/run local mn,mr,mt = C_Map.GetBestMapForUnit("player"),math.random(2),1442 if mn == 1543 or mn == 1648 or mn == 1961 then if mr == 1 then mt = 1304 end C_MountJournal.SummonByID(mt) else C_MountJournal.SummonByID(0) end

>>> 1961 <<< is Korthia's ID, as seen in this link.

This macro randoms between the Torghast and the 9.0.5 mounts, while either in Korthia or the older Maw areas.

Comentario de Argentan

I'm having some issues with the dust/slivers. Got up to about 80 over two hours or so, and then the clouds completely stopped appearing after multiple laps. I read a comment on the Dowser page that someone else has had this issue in 9.1 and resolved it by crafting some bars. Did that and I managed to get 3 clouds to show up, but after another 4 laps around the Maw I can say for certain that something is definitely up - I just can't find clouds anymore.

Did a few laps in War Mode too, still didn't see a single one.

Comentario de Piratica

If you're planning on starting this puzzle during a Necrolord assault: don't. Once you have Draka's Battlehorn, it will stay on your extra action button in Perdition Hold as long as the assault is active—which means you can't use the extra action button to start solving the first puzzle! You can't click it off or /cancelaura it and relogging, leaving the zone, etc. don't change anything. EDIT: Turns out you can't do it even if you haven't finished the assault. If the necrolord assault is active, the first step won't work!

I recommend you just spend this time farming your 200 Polvo de estigia and 200 Esquirla de estigia with your Vara radiestésica de estigia because you'll need it soon anyway!

Comentario de Piscesau

did the bind ritual with feral shade hound. it completed then told me to hand in quest. Where do you hand in and why did it not give me the bound shade hound. I did put in the runes in correct order. anyone know the answer.

Comentario de bjmurphy

Struggled to find this information in any of the comments, but this was one of the 3 mounts that could be used in The Maw before 9.1 came out. The other 2 were the Trepador de corredores from Layer 8 Twisting Corridors, and the Depredador de almas jurafauces from Hunt: Shadehounds event that comes up every 2 weeks in The Maw.

Not that this information is super useful anymore these days, but I was looking for it and it was hard to find mixed in with all 438 comments outlining the steps to get this mount.

Comentario de MorrigahnYsera

Finally completed the farm for stygia dust and slivers while on the quests for the Night Fae Assault. Went to Perdition to start the rune-locked chest and there were no big stygia clouds, no map markers, nothing. The platform, where the chest is normally located, was empty. Gave up and went to bed without completing Night Fae Assault quests so I could finish "The Jailer's Personal Stash" achieve on the following day. When the Night Fae Assault quests were complete I went back to Perdition and was able to complete the rune-locked chest. I don't know if the two are related but just in case someone else has the same issue, I hope this helps.

Comentario de Elvenstone

If the grapple points are no longer there for you and you can't interact with the Soulsteel Anvil, try turning your add ons off (not sure if that's necessary but it's what I did) and make sure the Stygia Dowser is in your bags.

Comentario de aceaxe11

Updated macro found in previous comments to include the Maw starting zone(different map ID). Not everyone has the Maw skip or normal mounts available in the Maw. SO if this helps, Great! :
/dismount
/use magic broom
/use Vashj'ir Seahorse
/run z=C_MountJournal.SummonByID;x=C_Map.GetBestMapForUnit("player"); if(x==1543 or x==1648)then z(1441);else z(0);end

What people really want to know is:
YES.
My level 48 alt is in the maw on the SL entry quest and can ride this mount.

Comentario de Kemayo

I encountered a bug in this "quest" chain: after I looted the Willing Wolf Soul I was no longer able to see the Stygia Nexus nodes or interact with the Soulsteel Anvil. Deleting the Willing Wolf Soul and logging out/in again let me gather the resources once more.

Comentario de KaF1

I complete the binding ritual but i dont get my mount, all i got are 2 shadehounds quest "heads" but no item to add it to my mount collection.

Comentario de Sttledlimbs

If grapple points dont show , as they did not show at all for me at alter of damnation, delete your stygia dowser and re-buy it. Blizzard being an indie company has some bugs!

Comentario de SargerasWasRight

Unless you REALLY want this specific mount for completion sake I would highly recommend reconsidering getting this. Finishing Twisting Corridors with end of expansion gear would take less time and be less of a headache and gives a similar mount. Getting 200 Stygia Dust and 200 Stygia Sliver is without question the single worst thing I've ever done in this game. People who say it takes 2 hours are full of crap. Even with handy notes markers the nodes simply are not plentiful, most are not spawned when you go to coordinates and you'll often spend excessive amounts of time wandering around without finding any. And woe be to you if you're not doing it on a stealth class.

Comentario de vagrantqueen

Is this still available going into 10.0? I finally was able to get my 200 of each material and I collected the rest. But grappling points aren't there anymore and I can't get my venth portal to find an available path up the side of the tower. I really wanted to finish this before the DF launch, but it's seeming to be in vein. :( I've watched all the guide and all of them either show available paths or grapple points that are no longer there.

Comentario de xLunacyx

It seems the only way to get up to the Soulsteel forge is to have Llamada de la dominación and the grappling hook. To get the calling you need 3 other players to summon all of the Convocation rares found around the maw.

Comentario de Barorck

Thanks to the tom tom points of the various comments I farmed this value. Given that the areas are often disturbed by various events (tormentors/assaults etc.) I found new points realizing that it often regenerated next to points already marked, but not so easy to see (the harpoons help a lot) while I found other locations randomly. Towards the end it becomes encouraging as it happens that it doesn't give what you need but only stygia. Here are all the places where I found the reagents to forge the bars

it won't be easy to find the green clouds. They often respawn in the same spots, but you'll also spend time going all the way around and not finding anything, I don't know if it's because they can be annoying when found by other players. Obviously do it with a lvl 70 character with barding to avoid dismounting you and at least 400 gear because you will pass through areas with bad guys and u cant oneshot xD good farm \m//
