Dragonflight, the new expansion for World of Warcraft, will be released soon. With the release, many old contents will disappear, including a stylish dragon mount. You can still secure it now. Just play a Death Knight in WoW Classic for a few minutes.
What kind of mount is this? The Frostbrood Proto-Wyrm utilizes the proto-drake model with a unique skin. Its pale, bluish skin is torn and glimmers with the blue, unholy magic with which Arthas resurrected Sindragosa.
Additionally, the dragon has a skeletal skull with antler-like horns to match its undead appearance.
How much time do I have left? Once Dragonflight launches on November 29 at midnight, you will no longer be able to obtain the dragon. Whether the dragon will return later is unknown.
The WoW head Ion Hazzikostas said in an interview that certain mounts, titles, and achievements are meant to be exclusive: “Those who were not there simply missed it.” (via wowhead) So you should hurry now to secure the mount. Because you won’t have to do much for it anyway.
You can find all the information about Dragonflight in our overview here. In the video, you can see how the Frostbrood Proto-Wyrm looks in action:
How to unlock the Frostbrood Proto-Wyrm
Here’s what you need to do: To secure the mount, you only need to create a Death Knight in WoW Classic and complete the special starting area with it. This should take a maximum of 1-2 hours, depending on your speed.
Once you have done that, check your mount collection in WoW Retail. There, a gift package containing the proto-drake awaits you. Open it and add the mount to your collection.
To play Classic, you do not need any prerequisites. If your WoW subscription is active, you have access to Retail and Classic. You only need to download and start the Classic client. Since the versions share some data, the download should not be too large if you have already installed Dragonflight.
You can create your first Death Knight on any server without needing to own another character there. Death Knights used to be very different than today and originally required a character at level 55 to play the class. However, this restriction has been removed in WoW Classic for the first Death Knight at least.
There are more contents that will disappear from the game with Dragonflight, at least for now. Therefore, we have prepared a list for you with things you should complete before the release if you don’t want to miss them:
