Hey el modo es de 25man me supongo que de 10 man tambien lo es, en nivel 70 pero si entro con 5 jugadores nivel 80 con un gearscore de 3000 en el modo 10man tendre las mismas posibilidades de obtenerlo? Ayuda plz. Estoy apunto de organisar 2 equipos en mi guld, por semana y no quisiera equibocarme y nunca obtenerlo... jorck (blade's edge)

Eh, no sé si sabrás, en la antigua expansión no había modos de 10/25 jugadores, la única raid de 10 era Karazhan. Pues, bien, TK se puede hacer de 25, y de 2... claro está mientras estés en Banda. El % de drop es el mismo vayas con quien vayas, aunque es bastante baja.

Bueno para todos aquellos ninjas de monturas de 310 en la expansion de cataclismo se os acabara el fardar de velocidad por que todos vamos a volar a 310 en la expansion con la nueva equitacion y saldran monturas seguramente mas chulas que el fenix y de 2 plazas como el cohete. :)

La verdad no es tan dificil de obtener... hay que matar a Kael aproximadamente 90 veces para obtener una montura si haces Tempest Keep todas las Semanas durante 2 años debería caer una montura...
el problema es tener que compartirla con algo de la raid cuando salga...
Comentario de

Esta montura todavia disponible en wow cataclysm, la dropea el ultimo boss de la raid Castillo de tempestad (Kael´thas, caminante del sol).
Esta raid es soleable para un Dk blood o paladin reprension, la montura tiene un drop muy bajo, pero merece la pena ir todas las semanas =)

Alguien sabe si el fenix que kael invoca tiene que ver con el drop? es que lei en unos comentarios de Prole de fenix que si se dejaba vivo al fenix que el invoca en el bancal del magister tiene mayor drop. Podria ser igual en el castillo de la temspestad?

Esta montura se puede farmear. En esta mini guía enseño como se farmear la montura que suelta el jefe de la banda Kael'thas Caminante del Sol ( Kael'thas Sunstrider ) en la banda del Castillo de la Tempestad ( Tempest Keep ).
La montura se llama Cenizas de Al'ar ( Ashes of Al'ar ) que es un fenix volador.
La entrada de la mazmorra se encuentra en las coordenadas 74.00 64.00 de Tormenta Abisal en Terrallende.

Hola a todos hace unos dias un jugador me dijo que cuando iva por la montura con 2 o 3 amigos mas durante 1 año no salio la montura ni una vez pero dijo que despues ha ido con un grupo de 12 personas durante medio año y salio 2 veces y me dijo que si van menos de 8 personas la montura no sale nunca alguien sabe si eso es verdad o algo?
Comentario de
DeckerExTytalus
Actualmente puedes ir a farmearla tú solo si tienes buen equipo de nivel 90 y te puedes "desaturdir" con algo.
Yo voy con un pj mago, suelo usar el bastón que tira durante el combate
Bastón de desintegración
pues aunque baje mi dps puedo evitar el aturdir, silenciar y desorientación.
Mucha suerte!

Obtenida hace una hora y media, wow la verdad cuando la recogí no me impresioné mucho, pero bueno, un año tras esta montura y finalmente me la dio kael, lo chistoso es que eliminé a Kaelthas tan rápido con mi cazadora nivel 537 que me dije, recojo su despojo y salgo rápido para la isla intemporal, jaja no me imaginaba que me la soltaría :-)
Comentario de
Megavalmo
Al fin luego de ir alrededor de 1 año cayo, les recomiendo matar a los demás boss ya que estos, todos, dropean una pet rara que les puede generar bastante oro, ademas matar a los consejeros puede volverse un poco tedioso les recomiendo matar a Capernian en primer lugar ya que genera aturdimiento periódico, los demás no les darán mucho problema
saludos y suerte... no se rindan que algun dia les caera

¿Alguien sabe cada cuando puedo farmear esta montura? Es que yo fui a farmearla ayer y volvi a entrar hoy y todo seguia como lo daje ayer, ¿cuanto tengo que esperar?
Comentario de
frascuelo
Después de todos estos años finalmente esta montura me ha caído hoy (22/08/2015).
Algunos consejillos:
- A diferencia de otras raids, no hace falta matar a todos los bosses para poder llegar al boss final. Se puede ir directamente a Kael'Thas si se quiere ahorrar tiempo.
- A nivel 100 ya no tiene ninguna dificultad solear el encuentro. Lo más tedioso son los stuns de los consejeros y esperar a que el boss pase de una fase a otra (entre fase y fase hay casi un par de minutos), pero no se tarda prácticamente nada en matarlo. No hace falta ni siquiera molestarse en lootear el bastón legendario.
- A la hora de organizarse para ir todas las semanas hasta Tormenta Abisal, interesa tener la piedra hogar en el santuario de Pandaria, para poder usar portal a Shattrath y desde allí vuelo a Cosmotirón. Una vía alternativa es Torre de los Magos de Ventormenta -> Portal a Península del Fuego Infernal -> Vuelo a Cosmotirón desde el portal oscuro de Terrallende.
- Lo más importante es tener paciencia y no desesperarse. En los foros USA se dice que han incrementado ligeramente el drop (y es verdad que parece que se ven más fénix que antes), pero sigue siendo una montura rara y hay que mentalizarse de que va a costar varias semanas/meses de farmeo.
Ánimo y mucha suerte!

Sin duda la mas bonita del juego.

Merece la pena intentarlo, es la mas bonita del juego, la mas exclusiva.
Comentario de
Daegoth
La obtuve luego de incontables veces de ir al Castillo de la Tempestad. En esta última vez donde tuve éxito, Kael'thas invocó a su fénix y seguía peleando contra el, luego el fenix se volvió huevo y cuando derroté a Kael me dio la montura más hermosa del juego (junto con la del zorro de legión).
Comentario de
juananpwned
Aunque con mucha suerte... me salió al segundo intento cuando todavía estábamos en Pandaria..
Eliminemos el mito ya de que lo suelta el Fenix (de los primeros bosses de la Banda "El Castillo de la Tempestad").
Definitivamente lo suelta Kaelthas, con MUY bajo drop. Si consigues dropearlo... Conseguiras el logro de las cenizas.
A día de hoy no es nada dificil, aunque si no vas un pelín equipado pueden darte problemas los add que salen antes que él, puesto que te provocan Stun, desorientado, bombas internas, etc.
Una buena manera que usábamos en ese momento era, atraer a uno de esos dos add problemáticos a una parte de la sala, y el otro a la otra punta, para así cuando revivan todos a la vez te de tiempo y no te comas sus dos debufazos!
Espero que os haya servido, se que ya tiene tiempo este tema, pero quizás pueda servir para aclarar.

Not exactly, if the item is in the game (owned by that boy or someone else) and gets linked a lot of people quickly get it in their linkloot (or w/e they use) thanks to linked battlegroups etc. Besides, it's confirmed this item hasn't dropped for anyone yet.

Comentario de
FISKERQ
I don't know if they have removed this, but at some point you got the items of another person just by being in vision range of him, every item he had equipped and had in his bags was being put in your Itemcache files.
Which is one of the reasons why some items are on the sites but not ingame, some items have been in the bags of some GM's and upon a player seeing the GM the items would automatically be put in the itemcache.

This item was originally discovered by FISKERQ by running a script that "searched" for the item on the Armory. It was quickly posted on wowwiki, and now later wowhead.

Wow, poor kid, seems like everyone is taking advantage of him, his dad Micah whoring him out like this so he can get a free phoenix mount when his kid kicks it, his guild 32nd Fleet doing some lame gathering in Shattrah to show the mount off, and Blizzard using this sick kid for a publicity stint. Hopefully he dies soon so he won't have to deal with this shit anymore.

Were you abused as a kid? Either you are projecting or you are overly bitter in general. Did you read any of the articles about this? The kid got the spend a whole day at Blizzard and he (not his dad) had a blast there. Did the kid or the father spend a day designing quests, naming items and NPCs?
As if the father could have predicted they were going to do anything for his son's character, much less give him a mount no one truly cares about.
Please. This was a nice gesture and you turn it into a perversion... you should be ashamed to have even thought of that possibility.

This mount is a ground mount. NOT a flying mount.
Comentario de

Incorrect. Read the article, it's a 310% flying mount (the same speed as the Armoured Netherdrake) and can only be summoned in Outland.
Comentario de

Doubtful since it requires 300 riding skill. Also in the inside news they say it has 310% speed which only flying mounts can have.
And if you click on the green text you get to

where you can see it increase the flight speed.

Yes "it was probably a private server, blablabla" good thing you figured that out - we don't care, it's not the point.
The video starts with one of the GM's summoning the phoenix and flying ..
In the video the mount appears to be a legendary item called "Peep the Phoenix" or something like that
.. and DAMN that shit is fast !!1
Comentario de

First of all, have you actually read anything about it, other than a cursory glance? His father is a power gamer, the kid's character wasn't even level 70. Yeah I'm sure this wasn't parentally motivated in anyway. And his middle name just happens to have "phoenix" in it... yeah ok screenshot of his birth certificate with Ephoenix as his middle name or it never happened.

Drops from
Kael'thas
, not
Al'ar
. Increases flight speed by 310%.
Although it had a chance to drop since the Burning Crusade was implemented, the first Ashes of Al'ar was given to Ephoenix of US-Norgannon (Ezra Chatterton IRL) during a
visit to Blizzard
coordinated by the Make-A-Wish Foundation on or around May 22nd, 2007.
The first true
drop
was procured by Korlic of EU-Sylvanas on May 31st, 2007.

Well i really envy this boy here...anyway sincerely grats to him lol..being given a so freakin rare phoenix mount by Blizzard itself..cool
Comentario de
Mirrormn
This mount requires riding skill 300, so it is almost assuredly a flying mount. It does not say, "This mount can only be summoned it Outland," but considering the poorly rendered filler terrain in Azeroth that Blizzard does not want people flying over all the time, it's probably an Outland-only mount anyway.
As for speed, it has been implied by Blue posters that this mount is supposed to equal the Armored Nether Drake, so it's probably 310%.
And the maximum drop rate could be anything except for 100%, although it is most likely to be the same drop rate as all the other rare-drop mounts in the game, like the raptor, tiger, baron's warhorse, fiery warhorse, or raven.

I'd hate to burst your bubble, but no one killed Kael'thas before 2.1, therefore, every legitimate Kael'thas kill had a chance to drop the mount.

Comentario de
Tyrsenus
Correct. We don't know when the mount was added to the game, therefore we assume that every kill potentially had the chance to drop it. Statistics are incredibly inaccurate for a small sample size, but most mounts have a ~1-2% drop rate. Therefore the 3.8% figure will most likely drop.

It's also the only flying mount not to specifically mention that it can only be used in Outland. Makes you curious, doesn't it...
Comentario de

Raidin, the reason Blizzard didn't make flying mounts available in Azeroth is you can get to place you shouldn't be at(like IF Airstrip, but people got there anyways). Also, at place where you shouldn't be the stuff are poorly rendered.

Today, <Method> On Emeriss EU got the Al'ar mount on our 2'nd Kael'thas kill, world 2'nd I believe.
A bit more information, it is 310%, it has a kind of firey glow before it whilst flying, and also look pretty sick in shadowform, yes a shadow priest without the riding skill won the mount for a massive amount of 1007 DKP, he shortly after bought the riding skill.

The max drop rate can (potentially, although highly unlikely) be 99.9999% and those killing it so far have just been very very very unlucky.

Read about this mount of the web the first ever phoenix mount was given away to Ezra Chatterton, the young man who recently went to Blizzard's offices with the Make-A-Wish foundation. Ezra was given the first ever Phoenix mount in game for two reasons. First, it was probably the best gift that Blizzard could really give any gamer as far as one of the new Outland mounts. Netherdrakes are awesome, but a phoenix trumps that, if you ask me! And hey, who wouldn't want a mount that could move at 310% speed like the Swift Nether Drake arena award mount. Secondly, as Ezra's father Micah explained to me, the phoenix is an extremely important personal symbol for Ezra.

The only proof that this phoenix exists is that Ephoenix is the rightful owner. The other screen shots are pretty much seen as private servers due to the characters not existing in the wow armory...but it is for good show of the phoenix it self. As for the drop it will be hard to prove due to ppl dropping the UI and not showing their lvl along with very little amount of ppl surrounding your toon that u do not know...so u must prove what server your on and witnesses
Comentario de

Blizzard's armory lists this having 1-2% droprate. At 2%, any guild will get 1 Phoenix per year on AVERAGE if they clear The Eye every week. When it drops, you have to be the ONE lucky person from the 25-man raid to actually get it (or have the most dkp). In the end it all comes down to luck. Some guilds will get several and some will never get one.
Phoenix' speed is 410% running speed (310% flying speed). With Crusader aura you will go at 492% running speed.
Phoenix doesn't have visible legs and it will always be flying. In "rest" state on ground it will still flap it's wings. When "running" on the ground you will go at regular epic mount speed. Otherwise phoenix performs like any other flying mount and same rules apply.
Phoenix leaves several trails from it's wings and tail. When you go at 492% speed you leave quite a long trail behind you. You can make some pretty looking trail figures with some fancy flying.
Phoenix mount is the Ferrari of WoW mounts and a guaranteed attention magnet. It's funny seeing people going past you in a hurry, do a full stop, perform a quick 180 degree turn and come look at you.

Speed % modifiers are additive. Your speed while on this mount would be 310% of your normal running speed. With a riding crop that would be 320% of your normal running speed. Assuming the riding crop and crusader aura stack you would achieve 340% of your normal running speed with both.
With a normal epic flying mount you would need crusader aura and a riding crop to match the base speed of this mount. 280% (normal epic flyer) + 10% (riding crop) + 20% (crusader aura) = 310% (phoenix speed).

I have a question. On his label, it doesn't mention that "This mount can only be summoned in Outland"... Isn't that strange? I mean, is there any chance it can fly in Azeroth too? Well
if it is, this might be one of the bigest mistakes of Blizzard.
Comentario de

Due to the radical amount of terrain fixes they would have to make, Blizz decided a long time ago that flying mounts would never be used in Azeroth. I don't understand how this strikes you as odd, since every other flying mount has the same restriction.

Comentario de

Dropped on our second kill, Pala Daycrailor got it (Mal'Ganis, EU). Server first. With Crusader Aura, the effective speed is (310+100) x 1,2 = 492. Regular runspeed is 100.
The mount is surprisingly small and the trail it leaves behind doesn't fit it at all imo. Like a small amount of colourful paper strips, combined with confetti.
Comentario de

After you get off this mount... you and everyone around you that is the same faction (horde or alliance) have to do the Al'ar encounter and kill it to get your ashes back. No rly, I saw it in the middle of Shat. Don't listen to anyone else... if you get off your mount you will prolly die unless you have a raid with you.

You are saying nonsense, first you claim "Phoenix' speed is 410% running speed " and then "When "running" on the ground you will go at regular epic mount speed. "

It's not a "radical amount", its closer to 5-8% percent. Much of the world looks ok, its the zone transitions which are sloppy - and of course all the capitals which require work - hopefully they well get at it one day.

No, what he was saying is that the chinese(actually all orientals) are very ambitious, and its a known steriotype to label them 'chinese farmers'(wither they're chinese or not). In my experience(not only wow) people of the orient tend to be less casual gamers, and more goal oriented. None of which is a bad thing. Imo they're also less lazy and more prideful in their accomplishments then casual gamers or gamers as a whole, which tends to discourage the assumption that they buy gold.
Also, being much more ambitious, they tend to be perfect canidates for working for actual gold farming "companies", which verywell could be part of the (or in some peoples oppinions, the main) reason for the steriotype.
Appologies to anyone that I may have offended, that wasn't my intent at all, infact it was the opposite.
Comentario de

One thing to remember is that the Chinese version of BC came out much much later (can't recall date), so this player could've easily accumulated ludicrous amounts of gold pre-expansion via questing, instancing, raiding, AH trading and so on.

I beleive that Blizzard doesn't allow Flying Mounts in Azeroth because of many reasons, and this is one of them.
Darnassus, Origmar, Stormwind, Thunderbluff, (Not sure about Silvermoon, unless it's open from the top), are all without a cover from the sky unlike most of Exodar and Undercity and IronForge.
Imagine how heaps of players from the opposing faction will just fall out of the sky avoiding mny gaurds and attack the cities with no effort at all, this will mean that cities won't be safe areas anymore.
But without them, you can be in PvP mode and not be attacked, you will feel secure in your cities (Unless some bored rogue ambushes you).

This is one thing for sure.... There will be flying mounts in azeroth.
there is a hidden valley of troll tribe above the cliffs of the mountain between darkshore and moonglade! near 66.4,24.0 and there is no way to get there but to use a flying mount because it is surrounded by mountains. even at the under city, there is a upper level of the inner ring.

This itemdescription says:
Use: Summons and dismisses a rideable phoenix. This is a
very fast
mount. This mount can only be summoned in Outland.
It has also been mentioned by a blue post that this will have a 310% mounted speed.
But the swift netherdrake mount, the other 310% mount has this descrption:
Use: Summons and dismisses a rideable nether drake mount. This is an
extremely fast
mount. This mount can only be summoned in Outland.
The swift netherdrake mount is also the
only
mount with this description. all other epic (flying) mounts have the same description as the phoenix of being a very fast mount.
ps. Sorry if you don't understand my english. I'm Chinese and moved to europe so English is my 3rd language.

The tag is STILL incorrect. Since this mount goes 310% speed, it should be labeled as an EXTREMLY fast mount, like the Gladiator's Netherdrake and the Merciless Drake, and not a VERY fast mount.

and how can you get "Trail length at 451% speed"? You can only add 10% with riding crop or the item from the netherdrake isle and it does not stack, paladins get 20%. o.O
Comentario de
b0uncer
Are you sure this is the way it works? Aren't you just supposed to add % to the total value of the speed? What I mean is this:
Merciless Nether Drake
gives you 310% flying speed. Then when you add
Riding Crop
and
Skybreaker Whip
you get +20% which makes 330%. And with
Crusader Aura
it gets 350%. At least that's the way I think things with speed work. I am not quite sure why you added the 100% movement speed which you actually lose when you use a mount.

Percentages are generally multiplicative. The crop, whip and aura don't stack - you can get up to 10% improvement from items, more from talents or auras, but those talents and auras then cancel out the effect of the items.
Further you have to add the 100% base speed because it says right on the tooltip
increases
speed by 310%. Take a non epic 60% mount. It wouldn't make sense for it to move slower than an unmounted person.
Aether is correct in his assessment of the math, and further there have been people who've verified the math in game using timing and distance mods.
Comentario de
127395
Crusader Aura, which is the mount speed increase does not stack with anything else therefore, you cannot reach anything past 330% if u have the aura up, however there are 2 trinkets which increase mount speed by 10% and which would get you up to 330% AND riding skill enchant to gloves and mithril spurs which would bring your mount speed up to a grand total of 336% flying speed increase. Here are all of the items:
Enchanting Gloves- Riding Skill
Mithril Spurs
Riding Crop
Sky Breaker Whip

410% * 10% (4.1*1.1) = 451%
410% * 20% (4.1*1.2) = 492%

I have no idea why my comment was downrated; this mount should in fact read "This is an extremely fast mount" rather than "This is a very fast mount", as all other 310% speed mounts use the former wording as compared to 280% mounts which use the latter wording.

Blizz has already stated that they are nerfing all raid mobs and bosses when patch 3.0 goes live(30% less health and less damage done overall), and with Wotlk raid gear we should be able to 5 man Kael'thas easily. Or maybe 10 man depending on how hard it will actually turn out to be at 80 ^^
Comentario de

Highly doubt 5 man. Kael'thas requires Hunter, Lock tank, at least TWO heals with 3000+ healing, two tanks, and lots of range dps. Nope, not five man, 15 man.

As someone who only killed Kael a few times before the 3.0 nerf while BC was out, and then farmed him until Wrath launched, I was also under the impression that he would be 5-man-able when I took a solo trip into TK to remind myself of his and his adds HP pool.
For reference after 3.0 Kael himself has 2.1M and each of his adds have 180,000ish HP, the Mage has a bit less, 130,000 if I remember correctly.
Since then my guild (everyone in a mix of 10/25 man WotlK raid content gear) has killed him 3 times for fun/chance at this mount.
The main problem I see with this fight and people trying to do him with as few people as possible is the fact that he still mind controls, 2 people at a time, and I have yet to see it resist so I’m assuming even at 80 its unresistable. This wouldn’t be a problem if they were 70, but they are 80... and when ever this happens our Kael tank slips below 50% health while the healers are either trying to keep the rest of the raid up as our members with daggers try to dispel quickly or they themselves get MCed. Even with the dagger our fury warrior almost always tends to kill someone when he is MCed before he can be CCed/dispelled.
Our most successful attempt was with the following comp:
2 BM Hunters (1 With Dagger)
1 Warlock (Staff)
1 Mage (Staff)
2 Healing Priests - one DSC one Holy (Maces)
1 Feral Druid (Switching Staff/Dagger)
1 Prot Pally (Shield)
1 Fury Warrior (Dagger)
1 Ehn Shaman (Not sure what weapon he was using, if he was using one.)
Also keep in mind, you have to have a certain level of dagger skill for the dispel to work (350 I was told), so you cant just put daggers in the hands of everyone.
So 10 people. Even with this set up the MT almost always took the Pyro due to the fact so many people were either on MC dispels or phoenixes (Fortunately with the HP pool at 80 this isn’t a big problem) and 3 people died before the fight was over.
You also have to remember, if you get MCed, for example, lets say you only have one person in the raid with the staff. If they get MCed, your raid loses the staff buff, Kael disorients you WHILE people are still MCed and not only are you being killed by the people who are MCed but your tank lost aggro and he’s about to launch a 40k pyro at someone who isn’t a tank.
Another amusing thing that went wrong... One of our priests got MCed and 2 shot the other priest before someone with the dagger got over to them or they were CCed.
So... long story short at the moment its near to if not impossible to 5 man this boss. I would say a very well coordinated group could do him with less than 10, but 5 is a bit of a stretch.

We were able to 8 man Kael this weekend to try and farm the mount. We first started with 6 but just didn't have enough DPS and phase 3 fell apart. Has anyone done this with less? We used a DK to tank Kael since he could use a CD every minute. Once you got to Phase 4 it was cake, 3 was the only hard part.
Comentario de

Just did this boss successfully last night with 9 players at level 80, took us a few attempts and we had to change dps orders a bit since the raid was smaller than the encounter was originally designed for. This is how we did it, and a slightly different strat for level 80's in a smaller raid.
Raid comp:
2 tanks (preferably 1 prot warr at least)
2 full time heals
1 offheals (moonkin / ele shammy)
4 ranged dps
Our gear level was approx. full T7 / mostly T7.5. Able to down 3 drake Sartharion with all the dpsers. You may need to bring additional dpsers if yours aren't that geared, however when new content patches come out, this won't be as much of a concern.
We wiped a few times trying to 8 man the fight without an elemental shaman, but we brought him in and the random spot chain heals and the heroism/bloodlust helped a ton in phase 4. Having 2 healers is preferred because one healer might have to move, accidentally die, or some other unforseen event. The actual damage going around the raid is trivial, and we had 1 healer healing phase 4 for some time before a mind controlled player feared him.
I recommend using a prot warr for phase 4 because they are extremely mobile for phase 4, and can easily dispel MC's without accidentally killing someone. Most players can easily take several devastates without it being a serious issue. Any tank can now MT Kael now though, the pyroblast was a joke and no cooldowns were needed to survive being hit.
Phase 1: Introduction
Not much to this phase, none of the mobs hit particularly hard and they all dropped extremely quickly. For Thaldred, the melee were able to walk up to him and start dpsing without any care if he turned around and started attacking them.
Actually positioning the mobs so they are in good places for phase 3 was also not much of a concern for us. We did attempt to have Capernian positioned on the right side of the room, and everything else on the left side, but with the speed of the dps it was not entirely successful.
Phase 2: Legendary Weapons
We had enough dps to completely destroy the weapons with about 10 seconds to spare before phase 3 started. I would recommend keeping the prot warr on the Cosmic Infuser, as it does heal itself frequently. Shield Bashes, Concussion Blows, Shockwaves are all needed to stop it from healing while all the weapons are being aoe'd down. Also, having him pick up the Staff of Disintegration early on, silence it, and drag it into the aoe helps a lot. The staff likes to stay in it's current spot and just cast at people unless someone does somethin about it.
We had a paladin tank to pick up all the other weapons (cept the bow, which was still done by a hunter). We even left the Devastation in there with the rest of the weapon as nothing there really hit for much.
DO NOT FORGET TO EQUIP THE WEAPONS. We did have some fresh people on the run who didn't understand that the weapons became lootable when they died, and required being looted and equipped. Not having enough casters with the staff in the raid will make or break the fight still. Phase 3 is serious still.
If you have a good number of single target dps in the raid, this is the dps order for the weapons I would recommend:
Staff of Disintegration -> Cosmic Infuser -> Infinity Blade -> Phaseshift Bulwark -> Warp Slicer.
For us, the bow died somewhere in the mix with the hunter nuking it down and the aoe hitting it. We never really had to worry about having to dps it at all.
Phase 3: Advisors
If you do not have most to all of the weapons down at this point, then it will likely be a wipe and you need more dps.
We were forced to change the dps order of the Advisors because of the annoyance of their abilities to a 9 man raid. Capernian was a serious threat to the raid because she would chain-conflag someone (often a tank, occasionally a heals or unlucky dps). There isn't always a staff that is going to be near in a raid that small so we nuked her first, while keeping an eye on thaldred and kiting him around as needed. If he did aggro to someone important, a bop works wonders for keeping them alive.
Killing Capernian is going the be the tough part of phase 3, her abilities severely restrict movement and make the whole phase rather annoying to deal with till she is dead. We didn't have to burn our heroism to down her, but if your raid is having trouble that is a good option.
Next up is Thaldred, just as much of a joke in phase 3 as phase 1, it took us a little bit longer to down him though.
Either Sanguinar or Telonicus will work next, neither is a very serious concern. We even had an add still up beating on the MT going into phase 4.
Phase 4: Taking matters into one's own hands
This was a bit chaotic for us the first few tries, but we eventually got the hang of it. At least 2 people should have a set of the daggers to dispel the Mind Control with. The prot warrior was the primary person to dispel the MC's for us, because of the mobility the Warbringer talent gives, and 30 yard taunts bring players over rather easily. A backup is needed in case the warrior does get MC'd himself though.
Fear should be avoided on MC'd people unless the person dispelling them got it also. It is very hard to chase down a player and attack them if they are running around randomly.
For the Phoenix adds, we had the prot warrior also tank those at the same time as dispelling Mind Controls. The Phoenixes are still level 70, and their aoe is of little concern as it nearly always misses. DPS should still nuke it down and then the egg it leaves behind though, eventually they will become a dangerous nuisance if you let them multiply and wander around randomly.
Do not forget to move out of the Flame Strikes! Those hurt a lot a 70, and they will hurt a lot at 80.
You can have any tank on the boss really, Pyroblast hits for 20-25k, which is less than our tanks had unbuffed. It is still nice to interrupt it as you get the chance, and use the shield to absorb the first one.
Heroism / Bloodlust should be saved for 80% here, give a good amount of time to make sure all the advisors or down, everyone is in a good spot and is comfortable.
Phase 5: True Power (lol)
The fight is won at this point, this phase is a joke at 80, especially with a 9 man raid. When he does Gravity Lapse, everyone should spread out a little bit as to not be right next to each other. Also don't go too high up in the air as when the debuff runs out, you will fall to the ground and take fall damage. The actual raid damage is next to nothing in the air, so nobody should be dying at this point.
Phoenixes will continue to spawn in this phase, and should still be killed until boss reaches 15% (ish). After that is is safe to straight up nuke Kael and go for the loots, only worrying about the adds afterwards.
1 minor thing to note about Heroism / Bloodlust, it is a risk using it in phase 4 as he can mind control your shaman and buff himself with it. He wont be much more of a threat, but you lose out on your heroism. If you are worried about this happening then burn it in phase 3 right at the start.
Good luck and happy hunting for the Ashes!

Quoted from Ruoste
Phoenix' speed is 410% running speed (310% flying speed). With 10% speed trinket you will go at 451% running speed and paladin's Crusader aura gives you 492% running speed. I also verified these with a mod that shows your speed.
Equivalent regular epic flying mount speeds are 380%, 418% (trinket), 456% (Crusader). So a Paladin on regular Epic with Crusader on will just outfly you if you have only the 10% speed trinket.
Phoenix doesn't have visible legs and it will always be flying. In "rest" state on ground it will still flap it's wings. When "running" on the ground you will go at regular epic mount speed. Otherwise phoenix performs like any other flying mount and same rules apply.
if its "When running on the ground you will go at regular epic mount speed" -which is 60%, then earlier in the first paragraph, why did you say "Phoenix' speed is 410% running speed (310% flying speed)"

Running in with no strat is a good way to wipe on Kael. That fight was never really a dps zerg, it is a technical fight and it is still more than capable of wiping a raid.
The point of running with less people in the raid is to have less people to roll on the mount against you. Should the mount drop, rolling against 8 other people gives you a much better chance of winning it vs. rolling against 24 other people.

Actually Kael'thas is close to not needing too much, with 15 people you'd only need to make sure that a rogue can get the MC'ed out of that state, or that at least someone can CC the MC'ed people. You don't need to place the advisors any specific places anymore, but just make sure a ranged is tanking Capernian a bit further away from the others.
All the weapons can be aoe'd down in about 30 seconds together. The only real possible problem would be Phase 4 as MC'ed people who isn't CC'ed kills everyone else.
Making it short:
15 people who knows how to play and you got a nice, fast and clean kill.
Farming for it atm ;) Wish me luck. Also, good luck to anyone else trying to get this beautiful mount.

Can anyone confirm if this mount still drops or not? I wanted to put together guild runs weekly to get people the mount (ha!) but a member of the guild said that it no longer drops.
Comentario de

A very nice gm gave me some answers.
- The Mount still drops.
- The Mount can drop if u skip all other 3 bosses & just kill kael.
- People who dont have 300 riding, can roll & win the mount.
Hope this helps

Come to Deathwing and ask about Fleshhunter. He changed his name to Bambishooter and still can't get groups or anything since he ninja'd the
Grand Black War Mammoth
from Archavon, and this happened a couple months ago. When someone ninja's something that rare, people don't tend to forget easily. Plus, that's what forums are for. To let other servers know of one person's asshattery, in case they transfer.

Okay wowhead is stating that the ashes of alars drop rate is 1.7% so this is actually less rare than the barons mount or even the zulian tiger? man i'd love to have one of them it'd be so cool i love mounts :L

Yes but u can only attempt to get it to drop once a week so it should be higher.

After having lost it twice ( to two level 79 ret paladins, who both ironically had NO flying skill whatsoever, and who both also had the same DPS... 320!); on both occasions me rolling 98 and the two culprits rolling 100, I can safely say that:
A) Random loot is random (Along with rolls...) and
B) That ANYONE can roll AND win this mount, irrespective of level, riding skill, mother's social security number, etc..!
May I also add that this is an extremely rare, 310% flying mount; hence the stringent instance reset timer and the actual drop chance.
I'm in no way bitter, I tell you, not at all!

If I get a group of 80s ranging from 10-25 with gear of any level and maby a few 77+, we get by without fighting the other bosses as from what I read is possible to do, how long would it take to do a run of TK the eye just killing kal'thas to go faster to get the mount.

The other thing that has not been said is that you have to still have 15-20 others to contend with to roll on this item, unless you 1) reserve it for yourself or 2) take it without permission. With the ZG mount, you are only rolling 1-2 others, and with the Baron mount, you can pretty much solo it, making your chances for those MUCH higher, especially when you take their reset timers into account.

This mount still drops. I never got the opportunity to down Kael'thas during Burning Crusade, but I was invited on a mount run by an in-game friend of mine to tank the encounter and farm the mount. Well, much to our surprise the mount dropped! This was our first attempt, and after all the rolls were done I won it with a 99. I am currently the only Death Knight on the server with the mount, and the first Hordie to obtain it on my server. You can armory "Lechter" on "Ysondre" server.
It looks incredible, and is faster than flightpath mounts with On A Pale Horse to up the speed past 310%. However, whenever you do Kael'thas I highly recommend you get people who know how to loot the legendary weapons and use them to keep the raid from wiping.

The best-fastest Mount is ASHES OF ALA'R ! 310% speed. But you need some good G for Training but whoever gets it is lucky for this mount , so hard that it's only 1.6% drop and it's in a very hard boss. Good Luck :)

My guild just ran it for the mount after raid just three weeks ago, it dropped - then we had the motivation to run it every week. The following week it dropped again and last night it dropped again. Sadly I lost all those roles but is that insane luck or a much increased drop chance?

I've seen it drop before. Though before I go too far into detail, it's a ninja story. Be sure to update your ignore list if you play on Gnomeregan.
We got a pug together, 20 man, and went to The Eye. It was mostly a guild raid from Revelation with a few filler dps. Korron was a lvl 70 mage without Wrath and got it together for achievements and to have something to do. Well we killed A'lar as a raid test, worked fine, and went to to Kael'thas fight. First time was a disaster. Fight glitched at beginning of phase 5 and Kael was untargetable while he eventually wore the heals down and killed the raid. 2nd try, no glitches and we downed him without any problems.
The mount, his orb thingy, Phoenix blade wetf it's called, a pair of cloth gloves and the 2 of the tokens a hunter can use, can't recall the name.
Korron saved mount for last, then to narrow down the competition, only let people with epic riding roll, I can't disagree there, though I didn't like it personally due to how rare a mount and irritating the lockout is. Anyways...like 8 people ended up rolling, and another guildy named Nannyog rolled a 100....everyone else was like 20-50's...so..no mess up there...there was about a 2-3 minute period of gratz and such till someone noticed that it hadn't been traded yet. About that time Korron gave it to himself and learned it. Of course the ninja crying began, he was spouting some BS about it being the only reason he started playing WoW and some such. He then immediately /gquit and started flying around shatt for rest of the day pretty much. 2-3 days later, my ignore list updated and he had name changed to AshesofAlar.
I'm pretty sure I heard the event actually got some publicity and some hate from GM's in part cause of the very underhanded methods used as well as fact it was 2nd ever server drop.
To the point. If you play on Gnomeregan and hate ninjas, be sure to ignore AshesofAlar, formorly known as Korron.

I've never ninjad anything in wow in 3 and half years of playing but tbh I would ninja it anytime in a pug. first most ppl on my server are wotlk noobs and i couldn't care less about them and their qqing over /2, second, most end game guilds wouldnt care about my name being spammed over /2 at all since they would do the same in a pug.
not that I'm only admiting i would ninja it, I'm also encouraging you all to ninja it if you're running a pug, but if you're doing a guild/friends run then do not, simple as that...
i know this post will be downrated but 95% of ppl would do the same if the mount drops and you know it.
once, the mount did drop in a raid i was in and some guy ninjad it, i lold, didnt blame him what so ever, sure i was sad i didnt get it but i didnt start spamming /2, only a couple of ppl did, some guildless guys who frequently spam trade asking silly questions "whats the best trinket for dk?" and such....
so take care and happy hunting!

I was invited to tank the place. Having tank the place pre-nerf, the only thing I did was to grab the shield to help with the raid. Fortunately, there's so much DPS, getting the shield wasn't necessary, as Kael didn't get one of his Pyroblast off.
The mount is indeed beautiful, made faster with my paladin's Crusader Aura.

Most awesome mount ever. Been seting up some farmruns for it, but havent had any luck yet. I'd give so frikken much for this mount. Got 106 mounts atm, but id easily trade all of them for this1 if i could. Think im gonna get a stroke if i ever see it drop.
Some info:
Kael is not that hard with about 7 players. Its ezzzzmode with 10-15.
Setup:
2 tanks (1 must be warr / pala).
1 healer
1-2 melee dps (rogue perfered)
a few ranged dps
It probably is tons of guides of how u can do this, so ill just shoot in a short version one here.
Kill whoever of the minibosses that comes to u. They have very low hp, and are down in few secs. Then nuke down the weapons, 1 tank (the pala / warr) picks up the shield, so he can use the "Use" when Kael casts pyroblast. The rogue / rogues / melee dps picks up the dagger, so u can break the MC. 1 caster picks up the staff for its "use". Then u set up a kill-order for the minibosses and down them. Then u start with Kael. As long as the tank with the shield uses it whenever a pyro is coming, this is easy. Kill the phoenix (and its egg), and bring Kael down.
Good luck with ur mountfarming.

Okey I do a Tempest keep mountrun every week and I use between 8-10 people.
The setup is quite flexible tho I can use druid tanks and such you dont really need a War/Pala since the fight with good geared people doesn't take that long.
My setup for the 10 mans is
1 Tank
2-3 Healers (just for safety in phase 3 and 4 when the raid might take some damage)
And just Dps in general with good gear. (A rogue can be handy for the mind controlling part but its not even close to needed)
I usually 10 man it but ive 8 manned it once and it was as easy as 10 manning.
When you trying to make a group everything week or such you might take in consideration to use group loot instead of Masterloot (if your not going to intentionally ninja) this way it takes less time to find people
Side not: If you really want a good and smooth run (then you need a Féynor)
Hope this helped you cu

For those of you that wondering to kill Kael with minimum number of players, we started with 3, failed and got a range for the last spot.So it is doable with 4 good geared raiders. However you will need to know the tactics and use a tank that can use a dagger on main hand, in our case that was me, *protection warrior. ( Reason is MC is casted on 3, never casted on tank, tank will rescue the others. ). *Restoration druid with the mace. *Retribution paladin and a *mage with the staff.
Stay in 30 yards with your staff user at all times, and everything should be fine.

If you want to stop this mount being ninja'ed, do NOT let the raid leader turn on master looting. There's no point - if you're going to do normal rolling, you might as well let everyone need on it and the true winner will get it. Why use master looting and risk the possibility of a ninja? Of course, if you're doing this with a ton of 70's who don't want their gear ninja'ed then fair enough, but otherwise, might as well not risk it.
Assuming a 2%ish drop rate, the odds of you ever winning this are very, very, very slim indeed. If you run this every single week with 10 people for nearly 2 years (100 weeks) then your odds of seeing it drop once are approximately 86.7% and your odds of actually winning it are 8.67%. A less than 10% chance of you winning something once every 2 years? That's pretty painful. Yep. I don't think you're going to see many of these in your time.

Just got this today, and the roll wasn't master looted, won the roll with a 98, somebody offered 50k for it, and i declined it.
and for 2 reasons: 1. im gold capped at 214k, and 2. I've been after this mount forever, and then inspected the 1 who offered me the 50k and he had this mount too apparently, so I was in the right mind, and even stated that he had the mount and the whisper, and he was then rightfully gkicked for it, seeing as the guild leader (not my guild) was in the run and that he was good friends with me.

I've only seen this thing on my my server (Skywall) three times. First being an Undead Rogue, then a Human Mage, and then a Tauren Warrior.
They were flaunting them on Dalaran's flight landing area, but who wouldn't! This mount is without a doubt, the best flying mount in the game, in my opinion.
I have been trying pretty devotedly to get this mount, but it never drops. Someday, maybe :)

If people are asking whether you can 5-man it with the current state of the game, the answer is "Yes, you can". Here's how we did it (Keep in mind, we were all mostly 277 geared).
Group comp was:
Prot Paladin
MM Hunter
Mut Rogue
Arcane Mage
Disc Priest
To make it a little more simpler, we used Kings and Gift of the Wild Drums from LW.
Here's how it happened:
Phase 1:
Adds come out one at a time. Try to have all the adds stacked with the exception of Grand Astromancer Capernian, in which the MM Hunter dragged her to the back of the room to die. This helps the Prot Paladin pick up the adds easier and keep them grouped up come Phase 3.
Phase 2:
Weapon phase. We had the Hunter and Rogue both pick up the dagger for MC control, Mage pick up the staff for immunity toward disorient and fears. Shield was not needed for the tank since Ardent Defender will save him from Kael's Pyroblast.
Phase 3:
Mage and Hunter both zerged Capernian as fast as they could, Rogue was on melee adds which the Pally was tanking. Both ranged DPS assisted and single targeted down the rest of the adds quickly once Capernian was dead. Watch out for Telonicus' bombs as they still hurt quite a bit.
Phase 4:
Hunter and Rogue were on dispel duty for MC. If both were MC'd, the other raid members used defensive CDs until the MC was up. Phoenix spawns are inevitable, so kill those off quickly including the egg. As stated above, Ardent Defender saved the tank from Pyroblast unless you could zerg the shield down quick enough and interrupt it. Keep doing this until Phase 5.
Phase 5:
Nothing really noteworthy here. Keep doing your normal routines until Kael dies, and hope for a phoenix mount!
We did this successfully so far 3 times without a mount drop, but we have hope it'll drop eventually. The trash is probably the most annoying thing 5-manning this raid. Yeah, you can bring 10 people and blow through this boss with relative ease, but 5-manning it, especially with heroic ICC gear gives you much better odds at winning the mount if it drops, considering you're only running it with 5 people versus 10 or more.
Good luck with your phoenix runs!

There's a bug with this mount where you learn the item, but the item remains in your bags.
Amazing dialogue's accompany this;

Winning this mount legitimately is like winning the lottery. Except instead of a million bucks, you get a shiny, flamboyant orange and pink bird that makes you the talk of the town whenever you mount up. You'll stick out like a sore thumb and attract whispers like ants to a picnic.

As a proper mount collector, I've won this mount with grouploot on, and no gold involved. Lost it the first time it dropped, won it the second time. Went with the same 6 people for 22 weeks now.
1 Warrior tank (Wielding the dagger as well as the shield)
1 Ret pala/prot if needed
1 Rogue
1 Death Knight
1 Disc priest
1 Boomkin druid
Managed to get a screenshot before I pressed "Need" - Unfortunatly I almost died IRL when I won it so I was sitting on ventrilo asking the others..
"Did that just happen? Did I just win the mount I've been hungering for - for so long?"
And the others said "Yeah man congratz." I felt sorry for the people who had to lose it a second time around, can only say I sympathise and know the feeling.
I was still in shock, went to Dalaran and stood at the well for a good hour and a half just looking at it, while loads of people gathered around our two Ashes of Al'ar.
Dream come true for a gamer nerd!

Ok, so I farm this every week. This is probably the best way to get the mount. Bascially, ideally around 6pm on a day I don't raid, I make a macro for an advertisement on trade. It says:
LFM 80s for Tempest Keep: The Eye. Ashes are reserved, but when Kael'Thas dies I will give you 100g, regardless of drops. Pst for invite. Need everything.
Yes, the trolls come out of their closet and begin the, "ashes reserved!1! lolllol!1! who wuld go to dat?1!1?//" but you just gotta ignore it. It's a little bit pricey, I usually bring 15 80s just to make sure it's a breeze, so drop 1500g every week, but it's guaranteed yours if it drops, since everybody that you bring has agreed to it being reserved. My group usually consists of 2 tanks 2-3 healers, depending on how geared they are, and the rest dps.
...it only has to drop, then it's all mine...
Good Luck!
Leat.

We're 3-manning him for the phoenix currently. It's quite a bit of a challenge with current gear levels. The key to it is a warrior tank using the dagger to dispel mind controls.
With only one damage dealer the forced transitions after 2/3min for phase 2/3 can be a bit of a problem. The synergy of a warrior tank using the dagger to get +25% magic damage on the mobs in p3 helps if you're using a magic damage dealer.
I imagine it could be possible 2-manning it with a tank and a healer if both can output enough damage to get past phase 3 with maybe 1-2 mobs up.
Here's a video of one of our kills.

Probably the new Dark Phoenix wont make this one look less unique: Ashes of Al'Ar is still how you expect a phoenix to be (burning in bright flames). I managed to get it after just 8 runs but you know it might take a lot longer: just dont give up...it will be the "cherry on top" of your collection :)

Hey guys, I just got this mount today, it was a long grind but I finally got it and I couldn't be happier. It took me 28 kills and I just wanted to share a couple strategies for getting this mount. Before I begin I just want to say that all of these strategies involve having a large amount of gold and I'm sorry about that, but there's no way you're going to get this mount unless you're either extremely lucky, rich, or a ninja.
The first strategy I tried was getting a group of people together to farm it weekly, and using group loot and trying to bribe the winner. I tried this for about 7 weeks and decided that it was a bad idea, as not many people would give this mount up for anything, even if I was offering them 80k.
My second strategy was to get set up 10 man pugs weekly and pay everyone 500g when kael died, no matter the drops. This worked for several weeks, but my pugs ended up failing because of bad tanks (becasue the adds aren't tauntable) or bad heals. This would cost you about 5k a week, however it still takes quit a bit of effort on your part.
My final (and successful) strategy was 1st of all to send a mail in game to the top 20 guilds on my server (using wowprogress.com) and asking them if they would be interested in running me through tempest keep every week, and I would either pay them 5k per run, or 200k when the mount dropped. When the mount dropped the GM would use master loot, loot the mount to himself, then trade the mount with me in the trade window for 200k. I messaged about 10 guilds and I got 2 guilds interested, but one guild ended up changing their mind. So the guild ended up running me for 10 more weeks and it dropped. I recieved my mount, their guild recieved 200k (which they split among the raiders, there was 10, so they got 20k each).
Again, I'm just posting these as suggestions as to how to get this mount and how I did it. Sorry if you didn't find this helpful and good luck on your hunt :)

I have absoloutly
no idea

Ezra had cancer, and World of Warcraft meant a lot to him. Blizzard was being
sensible
when they gave him a mount. The pheonix was a personal symbol to Ezra, so Blizzard was nice enough to grant him one final wish before he died.
And don't QQ over not being able to get it. Go do more raids and stop flaming a dead 10 year old kid for having cancer.

Not only you are a retard, selfish, arrogant prick but you are also very

so bad
. I can't possibly begin to grasp how someone can be so insensitive over
pixels
being given to a sick kid who admired the game and had the fiery bird as an important symbol representing whatever he deemed worth of it.
Personally, I hope you are
never
present in a group when the mount drops. Egocentric people like you taint and defile the personal meaning something within the game can represent to someone and the WoW community would be better without the waste of blood that your very being is.

A GM in a private server I play in told me that this loot has an "internal cooldown time" from 6 to 8 months, and so told me that until that cd was expired (he did tell me the date of the last drop), it was useless to do the instance. Since I haven't found any information about this fact, I was wondering if you guys could help me figure out if this dude is bs'ing me or not. Thank you very much!

I have yet to meet someone who is as small minded as you are. In case you don't know, this kid had a stroke. He was brought to Blizzard because it was a really great thing to do. He died shortly after. I have no respect for someone who would mock a person who died and left behind so much.

I would have your account shut down

I just want to say that if your guild does this after you are done raiding icc or something and people that leave during the middle of your scheduled raid because they have a "migraine" should NOT be woken up to participate in the TK run..
An old guild I was in, the gm's wife left the BT raid earlier in the night and then after The raid was over with those of us who wanted to stay did TK and someone suggested the gm wake up his wife to do it with us because the majority of the guild was gonna pass it to her ... that scrub shaman ends up beating me with a 94 when I rolled a 91.. just pisses me off that she got it when she left the raid earlier and then wins the roll..
Let that be a lesson to you ppl out there..
also for it being on a 7 month internal cooldown for drop rate... that is bs.. a pug on my server went in there later on that night and it dropped again... insanely rare for that to happen.. but I got ninjaed so lol..

Ashes of Al`ar
An avarage of 1-2% drop chance(1,6%drop chance reported by Wowhead.com)
Ok so basicly what we are going to do is look at the best and then look and the worst situation you can get
yourself into when trying to grind for the mount.You have to consider 2 things.The first is the actual drop
chance for the item.The second is how many people you actualy have in you raid group,having in mind that
you,byTBC and WotLK gear peak means,CAN NOT do this by solo.
Best case:
2% drop chance with a 2 tanks,2 healers and 4 ranged dps team.
2%=2/100 successfull outcomes + 8 people=1/8 successfull outcomes when rolling for the mount
2 1 2 1 1
---- x -- = ---- = 1 / 400 = -- x ----- = 0,4% chance for you to get it.
100 8 800 4 100
Worst case:
1% drop chance with a full 25 man team.
1%=1/100 successfull outcomes + 25 people=1/25 successfull outcomes when rolling for the mount
1 1 1 1
---- x -- = 1 / 2500 = -- x ----- = 0,04% chance for you to get it.
100 25 25 100
Wowhead.com`s report:
1,6% drop chance
- Best case:
2 tanks,2 healers and 4 ranged dps team.
1,6 16 16 1 16
----- = ------ , so we have ------ x -- = ------ = ... = 1 / 500 or 0,2% chance for you to get it.
100 1000 1000 8 8000
- Worst case:
full 25 man raid
16 1 16
----- x -- = -------- = ... = 1 / 1562,5 or 0,064% chance for you to get it.
1000 25 25000
WARNING: These odds are calculated when the equation is affected by only 2 factors.Any further presision
would have to involve an deep understanding of mathematicly calculating odds,that I dont have.

Thank you my intelligent fellow wowhead users! About time a thread is completely void of rude little brats bragging about how they rolled a 100 or how they ninja'd it. As for the mount, I will simply say yes it is very rare and yes if you catch someone thieving it by all means ensure they have a very miserable WoW experience. Still haven't gotten it myself but i congratulate anyone who has gotten it that doesn't fall into the previous mentioned categories. Happy hunting!

I wanted this mount for ages, so I saved up 50,000G and then started setting up runs in guild. It dropped, I paid, yay. Using this method I have found to be the best way to obtain any mount in the game you want, as long as you are prepared to run and run until you find a player who is willing to sell. And yeah, the first time it dropped, they refused to sell it. It was their first run!
This mount will get you spammed with whispers, and people will assume you are a ninja, and you get instantly famous.
But it is worth it, it is so nice :)

If your a mount collector, you will come to realize something. No matter how cool the mount may look, if its just a drop rate, really all it shows is that you got lucky. Basically ANYONE no matter how HORRIBLE can obtain it.Getting this mount does not = your super pro and better than everyone else, which every baddie on my server acts like they are pro when they got it. You are JUST lucky. I'm not trying to rain on your parade it is a really awesome mount but if u want something to really show your baddass go get an ICC meta achieve flyer, even the ulduar drakes are better to ride in my opinion. Grats to those that got it though, i wont say everyone with it deserved it because almost everyone that got it on my server is a total #$%^&* and this only inflated their ego. A great example of mounts that got destroyed would be zulian tiger/razzashi raptor, i used to think they were so awesome but i was seeing more and more people that could hardly play the game ride it. Honestly, if u dont have epic flying learned your an extreme ninja to roll on this. If you cant even get ur lazy butt to do like 10 dailies a day for a week and a half you dont deserve to ride this.

In my humble opinion both the two posts that include names in their reports

You see, that's why naming and shaming is wrong: You're very likely false in your claim,

which means that someone is potentially just throwing a tantrum at a player for the hell of it!

This mount is truly epic. Was doing a little bit of BC raiding with some friends tonight and we got to TK and were talking about how cool it would be if Ashes dropped even though that's what we weren't really there for, and surprisingly enough, the Ashes dropped, and everybody was speechless in vent. I unfortunately lost the roll, a level 71 alt character without epic flying had won the roll, quite a few people were fuming with rage and jealousy, and ultimately called it quits before killing the other 2 bosses.

After using it in Patch 4.0.3a (yesterday more exactly), I've found that Al'ar now glides. Blizzard must have worked on the new model aswell, since the introduction of the Dark Phoenix, and they both probably glide ('till now it was just wings flapping continuously)

Just got my Ashes of Al'ar today! Joined a trusted group with a leader from the #1 guild so I knew we were safe with group loot, I recommend that. We went with 9 people and I wasn't even thinking about the phoenix, we downed him and the leader linked Ashes, everyone called bull@#$% until we opened the loot table and saw it. I was on Skype at the time with a mate who won't stop reminding me of how I reacted when I actually noticed I won... That's my story, felt like a dream. Best mate IRL was in the raid isn't talking to me for a day after finding out he rolled 2 under me (85 winning roll). Good luck everyone else!

Atm this mount is slightly bugged. It got a graphical glitch so the tail is somehow wrongly connected to the rest of the body and when its wings are spreaded wide, pink colour gradually turns off. Quite disappointing if you ask me but i guess they will fix it in the next patch.

Just saw this mount for the first time tonight on alliance side, duskwood (not known at all for progressive raiding guilds...at all). I was mesmerized at the sight of it. I figured it was some new cata mount but nope. it's old schoolish.
I can only assume the owner transfered from another realm because I've been on this realm for 4 years and have never seen it. Beautiful mount, best I've seen.

well after almost 2 years of farming finally Ashes drop'd.
we have a 3man grp of irl friends that farming tk when we hit 85,before that i used to pug 10man (grp loot) in wotlk.
anyway how we did this is easy as aff lock (me),dmeon lock & resto shammy.
in 1st phase i kited mini bosses to corners of the room & killed em so we have time to pick aggro/heal/dps in p3.
in p2 our demon lock used his aoe abilities to zerg down weapons (i helped him with my infernal & talented SoC),btw we only used staff to avoid periodic stun debuff during fight.
in p3 when all mini bosses r gettin res 2gheter our demon lock picked up Lord Sanguinar (he doin fear) & Thaladred the Darkener (he has no threat table & doin knock back+periodic stun debuff).i picked up Grand Astromancer Capernian (mage) & Master Engineer Telonicus,as aff lock i dont need heals to tank those 2 mini bosses at the same time,u can avoid Telonicus dynamites by runing left or right & keep up DoTs on both & use fel flame or instant shadow bolts to dps em.
in p4 we jus got lucky cause Kael only did mind control on our healer twice & we cc'd him with fear so it was easy.we also killed summoned phoenix & its egg asap to avoid get hit by aoe dmg.we pop'd every cd we had like earth elemental/BL/demonform etc to nuke boss.
in p5 u can enjoy fight cause its almost done & pray god for mount.
it was on grp loot & we all need on ashes & i won with 95 need roll!
i apologize for my grammer i know it sux.

What you also can do, is offering the player who won it some g's for the bee's. I bought my ashes for about 24k from the player who won it. Because it was an alt and he wanted on his main xD. I ran Tk 3 or 4 times max before i seen it drop the first time. It is rly worth the money imo since i still love this mount

Why does the phoenix sometimes have additional bright white glow on its wings and tail?
look at screen shot #2 to see what i mean, and screen shot #25 shows one with the extra glow and one without it.
How do u get it to do that or is it random?

After 47weeks i finally got it. My tactic was that if the mount drop i will pay 10k gold to everyone in the raid. Like every week i was doing it with 4-5 people with almost no problem (no wipes).In the end i payed 10k to every person in the raid and i looted the mount - everyone was happy.
Setup: 3-4 dps 1 healer and me (DK) tanking in dps gear.

I'm currently at 26 Kael'Thas kills. I bring 10 people (including myself) every Tuesday. I pay everyone 300g to come, but reserve the ashes for myself. 26 x 2700 = 70,200 gold in the hole. Yesterday, I saw an advertisement on trade chat "LF1M healer tempest keep **MOUNT RUN** free roll pst". I wished them luck. I shouldn't have done it. Of course it drops for them, but not me. And of course, a level 83 death knight from some no-name guild wins it. I would have been server first horde, but now he is.

Did this today with 4 - all in a good selection of 359 gear.
Mage
Rogue
Paladin (tank)
Shaman (heals)
We had the rogue grab the dagger, the shaman grabbed the staff. We tried it without the staff a couple of times, but the fearing etc... was annoying, and cutting into dps. The staff made things much easier.
When the 4 bosses spawned at once, we used the following kill order, and found it to be the most effective:
1) All on Thaladred
2) tank/rogue on Sanguinar - mage on Capernian
3) All on Talonicus
To be honest, everything up to actually fighting Kael was pretty trivial. Once at Kael, the RNG becomes the largest factor. Kael can MC 2-3 people. For us, it seemed to always be three. If he MC'd three, I'd have to bubble, and then use other tricks to stay alive. Our best attempts came when I had resistance aura up, and Kael only MC'd one person (since he's supposed to do 2-3, I'm guessing the others resisted - not sure if the fact I had resistence aura up or not helped - it might have been purely co-incidental. I just know for future attempts, I'll have it up!).
On our successful attempt, he only MC'd once and chose the mage who just blocked it off. We did not have a Pheonix spawn. The key thing here is really to save every single DPS cooldown you have and be in position to nuke Kael like no tomorrow. You have to get him to 50% as soon as possible. Lust/Hero is critical. Once you get him to 50%, the fight is won... the next phase he does little damage, and you can relax and dps him to his death.
No mount this time... but we'll be back Kael. >:D

OK so Leat is back! I went with a pug (same pug where it dropped last week) on my rogue, and IT DROPS AGAIN. Also, once again, A DEATH KNIGHT GETS IT. I armory him and it's his 4th kill. Awesome! He totally deserves it.
EDIT: So it drops in THE SAME DAY (today) for a guy in my guild, Thekingkow. I don't mind that a guildy has it but why does it drop so often blizzard? 2 ashes of al'ar drops in one day? Really?
EDIT2: So, apparently there was a third today also. Just armory Bloodstrain, Thekingkow, and Foreplayz. All on Azuremyst horde. HAD TO HAVE BEEN INCREASED.

Started playing wow in BC, saw a horde rogue with it on our server and wanted it ever since. Killed kael a couple times before achievements came out... No luck.
Started farming this over the past 4 months. At 80 I would bring 8 people, 1 tank, 2 healers, and 5 dps... No luck
At 85 I tried to solo (warlock) won't work due to kael's mechanics with a pet out. He mind controls me, I kill my pet and he resets. So I've been 5 manning it every week. 1 tank, 1 healer, 3 dps, cakewalk.
15 kills and it finally drops, I almost crapped myself seeing it, I was prepared to go for years without ever seeing it. I've been saving 20k to bribe the winner each week. Had 40k on me and if they turned it down I was prepared to offer it all.
Won the roll by 1 with an 84. And I couldn't be happier. I would've died if I saw it drop and didn't win. Many weeks of farming finally paid off.
Keep at it and best of luck. You will never see it drop if you don't try, so good luck farming.

Think I was extremely lucky tho, totally I've done this Instance 7 times and with the 1% drop is just insaine.
When Suntrider was dead and and saw the mount in his corpse couldn't believe my eyes.
It was on masterloot and I thought that he the leader might would ninja the mount, but he didn't

It is by far the most sexy mount i have next right ahead of the Azure Drake. it will be till the Crimson Firehawk is available.

Well after loosing it 4 months before, in wotlk while i was going every week 8-10 man,i changed my tactic.
Now at 85 i just find like 5-6 other players,and we make a deal.If mount drops i take it and each one of them gets 10000g.
Until now i can find easy people to come,so i guess with a hight amount of luck it will drop again.
Well if u got the money and u think that this mount is really worth them,try it too.I can only wish you Good Luck!

I ran this place with 14 retards a little before cata, thinking the ashes couldn't possibly drop, but of course they did. Some tauren druid that had never been to TK, didn't know who Kael'thas was or what the Ashes looked like won and proceeded to immediately learn them, only to complain that he didn't get free 310% flying like he thought he would (only reason he wanted the mount) and how it looked like %^&* because it wasn't a dragon.
He did OS 10 3D immediately after and won the black drake which he's ridden around ever since as opposed to the ashes.
My blood still boils to this day, so the lesson is if you're going to run this then make sure you're going to win or you'll cry forever because the Ashes won't drop again anytime soon, if ever.

I feel I need to tell you my story of obtaining this!
It was a normal raidnight, my internet was being &*!@ so I asked to not participate. However while being online I thought of doing Tempest Keep. Since I hadn't done it this week. I invited some people, and we we were going at 20.30.
20.50 we're attempting the boss first time, with a warrior that never had done this. He failed with equipping the dagger because he couldn't find us (I was marked with a star and stood jumping on the dagger)
Our healer had to leave 21.00. And I asked for one last go before we call it. We kill him that try, just before 21.00.
I see it, I shout!
See the rolls, and I didn't win it. I asked the winner if he wanted to sell it for 60k, and he said trade me.
I did and I got this beauty for only 60k! My heart was beating so fast and I was so happy. I was gonna offer him all 120k at first, but then I wanted to go from 60k ---> 120k if he didn't want to sell it at first.
This was my story. Good luck hunting! Totally worth it! :)

As to be expected Cata gear makes it easier still. As an (equipped) 358 average ilvl warrior tank and an equally geared resto druid, and a doomkin with mostly 346 and a couple 359 we beat this encounter extremely easily. mechanics are ignorable, being as the mobs have only 196k, doomkin was killing each target in about ~15 seconds. Drop rate on mount is still 2% though, so even if you 3 man it thats about a .7% chance that you'll win the mount. go with friends, ninja it, or pay people in advance to pass on the mount. Paying people to pass is worth it imo, being as this is, in my opinion, the coolest mount still currently obtainable.

I disagree, I don't believe someone that doesn't have the proper flight requirement for any rare flying mount should be able to get it for a number of reasons. The most important one is that there are thousands of players that have been farming said mount for a long time an can use the mount upon recieving it. Letting someone that more than likely has only looked or tried for this mount here and there and that cannot use it is an insult to those who have put in the time and research and has the required skill.

I just got mine last night. I'd been camping Deepholm for Aeonaxx and got Blood Seeker instead, so I figured i'd gather a few guildies and go smack Kael for some old tier gear and a chance at the mount. We go in and wreck his face and lo and behold the mount drops and I win with a 94. Couldn't be happier (I'm a huge Kael fangirl, still hate what they did to his character in tbc :\ ), probably wont be riding anything else for a long while.
Also going to add, if you want to three man this each week with some friends just make sure one of you can equip the dagger and deal yellow melee damage and one of you can equip the staff, and have the person with the dagger tank Kael. I three manned this with a couple friends after I got the mount on my main, comp was a combat rogue (85, lol roguetank), a fire mage (85), and a resto shaman (82). With an 85 healer the staff might not even be necessary, but the silences are annoying so I'd probably use it anyway. He wont MC the tank if there are other targets, so having the tank use the daggers makes it so you can just stack up on them and when you get MC'd they can just smack you with something to break the MC and go back to tanking the boss.
Comentario de

Luckily nowadays Kael is very easy to solo for some classes, and will continue to become even easier with each tier.
I wonder tough. If Blizzard decides to take the story back to Outland, and redo the content there like they did in Old Azeroth, does it mean they might remove Tempest Keep etc as it still would take place in Outland's past?
Guess only time will tell.

So much hate from people, down rating comments from the fortunate few that have obtained this rare of rare drops.
Regardless of when you got this mount it's still very noteworthy seeing as the drop rate is very low, I know there's still some servers that don't have one at all, and that's 4 years after release. Higher population servers are seeing more simply due to more people going in to farm it.
RNG is RNG, if the dice gods decide to grace you with a drop, weather you get it or not, you should consider yourself fortunate to at least SEE it and be afforded the opportunity to shoot the dice.
I've seen it twice, once in TBC on the last BT attunement run we did, and just a few days ago. I told stories of how i'd been in the raid when it dropped and that it was paid for in DKP dearly. The second time it was all the luck of the dice.
And i've noticed from sitting on it that the tells i get are a fair mix between congratulatory, to straight hate tells, and those who don't even know where it comes from.
I've got no problem passing the information on since I don't hate on anyone that has it. Even if the drop has been increased, which i sincerely doubt, it's still a very very special mount.

I figured out how to calculate you chances (in a percentage) depending on how many runs you do of the instance.
1. Open a spreadsheet
2. In cell "a1", type: 0.988
3. Drag down the cell, depending on how many runs you have done/are going to do
4. In another cell, type: =product(a:a)
5. In the cell that you wrote: =product(a:a) a decimal number will appear
6. Minus 100 by the first two numbers after the decimal, and you have your percentage
You cannot get exactly 100%, because every time you run the instance you get a 1.2% chance of it dropping.
e.g.
If you ran it...
...3 times you would have a 4.6% chance of it dropping
...5 times you would have a 6.9% chance of it dropping
...10 times you would have a 12.4% chance of it dropping
...20 times you would have a 22.5% chance of it dropping
...30 times you would have a 31.4% chance of it dropping
...50 times you would have a 46.4% chance of it dropping
etc...etc...
hope this helps all the solo-ers out there ^^

@melinia,
It is NOT easy to solo. The trash takes about half an hour to clear, and then the KT fight probably just as long, if you do it your first shot. So that's 1 hour. I myself have not been able to solo it as a ret paladin, it's REALLY hard. I can kill the weapons fast enough, but don't have enough time/mana to heal up to full before the adds res, and I have to blow my CDs in order to kill the weapons fast enough, leaving me with no burst damage to burn down the mage. The engineer catches up to me first, and I die. I am iLvl 355 and used a vicious crit trinket for the removal of a conflagration.
So no, it is not easy to solo for most classes. Only locks, DKs and hunters have proven is POSSIBLE, let alone easy. I have not seen any paladins or warriors confirmed having done it yet, which is surprising. At this point, for me I think it's just a gear thing. Maybe when 4.2 rolls around and I get full 396 or whatever the item level there will be, it will be easier. Maybe I should try it as prot, although I don't think that would be enough damage.

Even though it's been available for a few years now, I still rarely see more than 1-2 players actually riding this pet.
Kael is probably soloable for some classes (deathknight / paladin), but 2 manning him or even 3 manning him is a huge risk due to his mindcontrols.
If you make a balanced 5 man group you should be fine though.
It's a lot faster than soloing as well.

You really have to love rare drops like these.
When you run the raid and your on the boss you heart is pumping faster and faster as his health goes down. You are checking everything to see if it is going to work. He dies.

Every week me and two guildies run Tk, Eoe and ony (tank/dps/heal). It's a wonderful number and it's far more fun running with people you like and know well. We've seen the azure drake and the ashes of alar drop so far in our runs and continue to do the runs until each of us gets the mount we want. My advice is not to be daunted by the difficulty in soloing these places. Find a guildie or a friend who will do regular mount runs with you and eventually the mount will drop.

Every week I get a group of 5-6 total people and I pay everyone 200g for coming. I set the loot on master and if the mount drops I keep it, and everyone else gets to roll on 25k or split the 25k. Getting Ashes is priceless so this is a good way of ensuring I get it if it does drop.

For those Ashes owners who'd like a weapon to go with this mount try
The Burning Crusader
. The coloration of the axe compliments A'lar perfectly.

Just got this beauty today! Made a 5-man group for it with the mount reserved for me for 50k. I never thought it would drop, since i had already seen it once and some random guy who had never been to TK won it and didn't care about it at all. Since then all the runs i do are with the mount reserved. As a friend told me once, gold comes and goes, but this mount stays! I guess some few people are lucky enough to see it drop twice, so for all of you mount collectors like me, don't give up!

I've killed him 52 times, no mount yet.
The rule are simple.
I'll take the mount, other 3 guys roll, the highest get 75k and the others 2 only 5k.
The rumors of the increased % of drop killing the other bosses it's true, or not? (quite obviuos answer)

Haha this week will be my 60th for me. You can easily save yourself some money. I run every week and only pay 10k per person if it drops. If it doesn't drop, nobody gets gold. I only take 4 others.... 40k gold for Ashes is a great deal imo.
Also, the drop rate has NOT increased nor decreased. Since more people can solo it, you see more people with it. Sigh, the art of perception is very deceiving. It's all an illusion.

By the way, this mount has no "sit" animation.
It's always in its flying animation, and the sound is a light shudder as opposed to the heavy flaps of proto drakes.
It can glide as well as flap, and may disconnect you if you swirl and fly around too fast (lol).

Slightly increased droprate since the release of Cataclysm according to a GM.

I've obtained the mount yesterday, and I can't explain in words how happy I am.
Here the steps I took to hunt for the mount:
Ask your guild to make you eligible to create guild events. I got promoted in my guild, so I created the guild events on my own.
Create a Tempest Keep raid for every week, and make it available for everyone >70 to sign up and participate.
Each time I took the leadership for the raid, and assigned master looter to myself. My guild was okay with it, because they trust me, and I was the one creating and leading each raid.
I did the raid for a total of 8 times. 8th time, the mount dropped (I was lucky)
We all rolled for the mount, and a guildmate won the roll
I asked the following to my guildmate: "Can I buy the mount for 35000 gold? Yes or No"
My guildie answered: "You can have it for 35k"
I opened the trade window, gave her 35000g, and looted the mount to myself.
This way, it doesn't matter how much people participate the raid. Just offer a enormous sum of money to the winner of the mount.
(If he wanted the mount instead, I would have give him the mount. I'm not a ninja)
Some calculation on win chance:
If I can calculate it roughly, and if I base it on a 5-man run each week:
- 1.4% drop chance / 5 man = 0.28% win chance per 1 raid.
- 100% - 0.28% win chance = 99.72% lose chance per 1 raid.
The calculation on total win chance is:
- (1-((99.72%)^X))*100
Wherein X = the amount of attempts
Scenario:
- 5 man raid
- Every week 1 attempt
- Everyone rolls need on a fair roll for the mount
Amount of attempts - Total chance for winning the mount:
1 - 0.28%
2 - 0.55%
3 - 0.83%
4 - 1.11% (one month)
5 - 1.39%
26 - 7.03% (a half year)
52 - 13.56% (1 year)
104 - 25.29% (2 years)
260 - 51.76% (5 years)
520 - 76.73% (10 years)
1040 - 94.58% (20 years)

First the only stupid question is an unasked one.
Second, actually "Coniel" i joined when BC launched. My main is a BE hunter, i was still under lvl 60 when WOTLK Launched, because i have a life and don't just play this all the time, so sadly i missed a lot of the older high lvl stuff; because most people only wanted to do the new stuff.
So before u try to look cool, know more about what ur talking about before u just say things and eventually come off looking like a d-bag.

yes drop % is increased; why are you 4manning it? it can be easily 2maned with almost any class combinations as long as you have staff wielder+some sort of tank (not really needed if you can heal/dps alot in p3)

and because the Phoenix is the symbol or rebirth, it was a meaningful symbol because he knew there was a very good chance he was going to die and when Phoenixes die they arise from their ashes.

The drop rate of this mount has not been increased or decreased.
I made a ticket myself because in 2 weeks I happened to see it drops twice and I got it both times. (Paid the winner)

Priest named Greekgodess from Livid won it with a 94 i do believe.
All i could offer was free food and portal's for life. I do not have much gold :(
But of course, they refused my offer.
Someone offered 75k
Someone else offered 125k
Dunno if Greek decided to keep it or sell it though.

OK I really think the droprate on this has been increased. I've seen it drop on my realm a ton lately.
Personally I went in Feb and it dropped (and I was 2 manning it, and the agreement had been I get first one, I'll stick around each week to help him farm. He says 15k and you get out of your agreement, so that was a cheap ashes IMO).
I've gone maybe 8-9 times since then with another friend. But this past few days, I've been 2 manning a ton of old raids with a friend who didn't start playing until LK. SO we 2 manned Naxx/BT/Hyjal, so we decide to go to TK next. We kill all bosses and get to Kael. I couldn't believe it, it dropped again.
Sigh if it's true that the Droprate has been Inc, I'm gonna be pissed, I was 1 of 3 ally that had it, now like 8 ally have it in the past 4 months.

The only annoying thing about having this mount is how other people constantly go, "oh the drop rate must have increased" when they see you on it, as though saying so is somehow going to diminish your having gotten it.
There's still only six hordeside on my server (Kel'thuzad US) and it took me 36 kills to get mine.

I did Tempest keep with some guildies today. Won the roll on this. I have only killed the boss 9 times. First time i saw this drop i was second highest roll.
Today when it dropped i won the roll. The group that I went with plans to do it each week hoping to get the other 3 people the mount as well.
IMO this is the best mount in game. I have wanted it for awhile but have not farmed it like i have some other mounts.

Got it on my 2nd attempt (if you do not count those 2 I did long time ago for achiev. and stuff), pretty lucky indeed. Kael can be solo'ed as moonkin, which adds this class spec to the list of those lucky people who can get their phoenix mount alone without a guild (or fixed team) runs - together with DKs, Rets and Shadowpriests. It's been a long 18min fight (first solo kill took 22mins) with quite high apm and some rng factor.
Not going to spam this page with tactic explanation, you may find on me on Bloodhoof and ask yourself :)
Happy hunting!
P.S. Mount is amazing indeed, worth time spent on it, even if it's 3 months each week without a drop.

Just got this mount today and I love it. Rolled a 100 against my 5 other guildies and the next top roll was a 37. The funny thing is it was on a rogue which I just got to 85 yesterday and it was my first time being in TK in like 3 or so years. I was really happy and of course they offered me gold for it but being the smart rogue I am of course I kept it. Great mount and within 1 hour of having it someone asked me if I had cancer. Great day.

Got this lovely mount today after a wow dream of wanting it, and it finally came true! I two manned the instance it with a resto druid, I as a fury warrior. Seeing the little orange icon on the screen made my heart skip quite a few beats. I pair it with my phoenix hatchling! So yes, it still drops!
Method Used:
The method we used to two man the instance is one that others may recognize. At the time of attempting this with a fury warrior and a resto druid, our ilevels were about 360 average.
Phase 1
is simple, defeat the four as they are introduced. Something that may come to use for you is that wherever you pull and kill each one of them, that is the location they will resurrect. This may help some make more time to defeat each advisor more individually.
Phase 2
are the weapons, I killed the Staff of Disintegration first, and my restro druid equipped it for the next phase for immunity to the Remote Toy debuff Master Engineer Telonicus casts. I then killed the Cosmic Infuser, and then Warp Slicer. After that, I killed the other weapons in no specific order. What I always left for last was the Phaseshift Bulwark because it doesn't do very much damage in case the phase ends.
Phase 3
was always the most irritating,
The first you kill is Grand Astromancer Capernian, she uses Arcane Explosion whenever melee/someone comes close, and knocks you back with a slow debuff. As a fury warrior, you have multiple ways to kill her as quick as possible and get back to her in melee range. Intercept, and heroic leap. Heroic throw is useful whenever it isn't on CD. To refresh your intercept CD, use heroic fury. At this point she is either dead or almost dead.
Afterwards, depending on how well your resto druid is able to keep both you and themselves healed, you either kill Master Engineer Telonicus because of his remote toy debuff, or Thaladred the Darkener who will silence and focus aggro on a specific player. He still does substantial damage to non-plate wearers, therefore this may be a consideration whether your resto druid/healer is able to keep up with healing. For me and my resto druid partner, we killed whoever depending on the situation.
Lastly, you kill Lord Sanguinar who doesn't really have much of a threat.
Phase 4
is when Kaelthas himself comes into play. Make sure you pull Kaelthas behind the statue of himself on the right side of the room. What you are trying to do here is make sure Kaelthas cannot see your healer, therefore he doesn't not cast Mind Control since the extra player is out of LOS. You healer however should be able to see you, healing you whenever you need it. Kaelthas will also cast pyroblast which is able to be interrupted. Occasionally he will call forth phoenixes, which you kill if they are in distance. If you move too much around the statue and your healer is seen by Kaelthas and he starts to cast mind control, do not run back behind the statue and have one of you disappear from view. You will cause the fight to reset. Generally, this scenario should always be avoided because the dps/warrior will do a good job of slaughtering the healer.
Phase 5
begins when Kaelthas is at 50% health and he runs back to his altar. There will be a brief period of time at the beginning where he is raised up into the air taking in energy where he does not damage you. If there are any left over phoenixes from the previous phase, this is a good time to clear them out. This phase is pretty easy, interrupt what you can and whenever you are pulled up into the air, avoid the black clouds which is Nether Vapor. What Nether Vapor does is decrease your health pool by 10%, and this can stack up to 90% health reduction. Not avoiding these clouds can end your fight, unless your druid is able to use Rebirth and resurrect you. What me and my resto druid partner did was not dps at all this part of the phase, and move away from the Nether Vapor clouds. Eventually his health pool reaches 0% and all you need next is some RNG luck!

After 26 runs I finally got this precious mount. I'll count myself lucky since there are people who have gone 50 or so weeks and have not even seen a drop. I was also fortunate enough to have two friends running with me and were willing to pass on it for other mounts that they wanted more. I also have a Priest that runs with me who happens to be my lucky charm for rare drops. I nearly had a heart attack seeing it drop. I couldn't believe it but there it was. Anyway, good luck to everyone else farming for this mount.

I'm so happy that I have obtained this mount after so much struggle and farming..... I had just got back from 200hrs + farming TLPD without sleeping...but in the end I managed to hunt him down :)))
So as a DK I can pretty much solo this every week.. but since it takes allot of time to do so, I called some friends to help me fasten up the processes a bit.
I had this feeling for 2 days... I kept thinking in my head that the alar would actually drop for me this week If I go... and it did! I was so happy I was shaking..... I Will never ever forget the moment I started screaming like a girl on skype.
I wanna say this to all the people who might eventually hate me for being lucky... I am not lucky as you think.. I work hard for these moments years of struggling.. RNG can be a b.....
I wanna say thanks to my mates, Dollicious, Orfeni, Ramon. who actually passed for me the mount - I didn't use master loot even though they knew they where coming to help me for the mount... What I mean is that I trusted them...and will always do.. I met these people not longer then a month ago.. So guys the virtual world of friends is still possible.. their is still hope!

Few tips to get the mount more easier !
These are the most honest ways to get the mount according to me
1.Get into a group with 1-3 persons (it will make it easier to win the roll)
2.Don't kill the 3 bosses because you don't have to kill the bosses to get the mount.
This is not the most honest way to win it .. But quite good !
1.Assemble a group with about 1-10 people and put on masterloot before you kill the last boss so the group members wont suspect anything ! And then you can get the mount by yourself by ninja looting it.

The topic of chance drop is always a sticky subject. The key is in the wording and what you mean by 'chance'. The
possibility
of a drop will always remain constant. The
probability
will increase the more attempts/roll you get on an item.
So in essence the majority of previous posters are correct but only in terms of how they describe their 'chance' of getting the drop.

For some weeks now, I solo Kael'Thas as a moonkin, you need some stuff, I would say that a 359 ilvl helps a lot to manage your mana bar and reduce the length of the 4th phase.
I use a
Lunar Shower
spec, with 2 points in
Furor
to help my mana regen, you would probably get rid of it once you managed to do it a couple of times.
Also, overwrite your
Glyph of Wrath
with the
Glyph of Starsurge
.
Be sure :
to have 3-4 free slots at least in your bags before engaging KT.
to bind on your bars your weapon (main hand at least),
Cosmic Infuser
and
Staff of Disintegration
to use your innervate as soon as you are at 55% of your mana bar.
Trashs :
First you need to clean all trashs until Al'ar (dragonhawks patrolling included)
Go right (or left, your choice)
Wait before turning left (or right) to Kael'Thas, you must kill trash mobs just before Solarian (Void Reaver) room entrance, then go clean the way to Kael'Thas (you don't need to clean all trash packs in KT room, just then one at your right (or left) when you get in
P1 :
Thaladred
: Pull the boss, then go at TK entrance, right in the corner, you can wait for him before Al'ar room to dot him (just one line of dot, overwise you could kill him), finish him in the corner,
be careful with his bump, when you go in the corner, be sure that you're not too close from him before.
Sanguinar
: He will come by the opposite side you cleaned, use the same tactic,
like Thaladred, be sure his fear won't throw you out of the instance, kill him at the same place.
Capernian
: Sprint (Dash + Stampeding Roar) to the side you cleaned, and go just before KT room, in the corridor before the "laser" door, wait for her, LB*3 + Rejuv, dot her before she conflagrates you, kill her, no difficulty there.
Telonicus
: Go back to al'ar room, use the line of sight to make him get out of the corridor, one line of dot, wait for 20 seconds left on
Remote Toy
to dot him again, when he's dead, go at the corner between the main corridor leading to solarian and the one leading to Kael'Thas.
P2 :
The legendary weapons are not hard to kill as a moonkin, just stay where you are (described above), plant mushrooms (if you see you won't be in solar for this phase, keep your starfall up for this, just be in Eclipse state), make them detonate when they're all there, thorns, dot them all, starfall, barkskin and lb*3 + rejuv, finish them, loot
Cosmic Infuser
and
Staff of Disintegration
, then go to Capernian corpse.
P3 :
Capernian
: Put hots on you with the mace, switch to the staff, and use it to get the cc-immunity buff (all this before she spawns), kill her, no difficulties here.
Telonicus
: He will come 4-5 seconds after she died, if you did it time, deal with him the same way you did with Capernian.
Sanguinar
: Coming 5-8 seconds after Telonicus's death, get away from the laser door to prevent fear problems, kill him.
Thaladred
: He will come 10 seconds after Sanguinar's death, spam your moonfire to kill him, while you go toward the place you were to kill the weapons
P4 :
That's the hard part of the fight, wait for Kael'thas, hot yourself with the mace, when you see him from the bottom of the corridor, equip your staff and get the buff, before he comes to you, show yourself and dot him, get out of los using the corner to interrupt his fireballs.
When he reaches you, use the other side of the corner and repeat.
Things you will have to manage :
Arcane Disruption
: he should do it as soon as he's close from you in the above-described situation, be sure to have the staff buff on you at this moment.

You'll probably need some time to manage this phase, don't forget to use your innervate on cooldown during this phase. You'll mainly bring him down to 50% while moving from place to place, if he just did his pyroblast and is under 60%, heal yourself with the mace until he does his arcane disruption, equip your "cataclysm" main hand, use all your cooldowns and kill him, don't care about phoenix spawns, you'll kill the during the transition.
Transition & P5 :
