Guide
The Grand Black War Mammoth is a rare mount on roughly a 1% drop rate from any of the four bosses found within the Vault of Archavon raid. To do this raid though your faction needs to be in control of the PvP zone Wintergraps. If your faction doesn’t control it then you won’t be able to do the mount until your faction does.
The mount is essentially the same for Horde and Alliance, the only difference being the armor trim colour is different depending on your faction. This mount does have a special feature though, it is a 3 person mount, meaning it can carry yourself and 2 other players at once.
To have a chance at this mount, you want to head over to Wintergrasp in Northrend. If your faction is in control of this pvp zone then you can head to the large structure in the north of the zone. Here you will see a massive door, just up the stairs and to the right of the door you will find a teleporter that will take you inside.
Once inside you will instantly see the raid entrance dead ahead. Raid Difficulty and Raid Size do not matter, increasing the raid size will give you more gear piece drops for extra vendor gold however.
This raid contains four bosses, Archavon the Stone Watcher, Emalon the Storm Watcher, Koralon the Flame Watcher and Toravon the Ice Watcher. All four of these bosses have a 1% chance at the Grand Black War Mammoth, so it’s recommended to kill them all.
Extra Tips: Since you can only clear the raid once per week per character, run the raid on your alts to have more than one chance per week.
