Take out the extra insurance policy on it... because lets face it... it's a loaner >=D

Kommentar von Nevermind

You get this mount by talking to "Honest" Max in The Storm Peaks.

Kommentar von MrPsychic1

This is for poor guys that have just their 100% ground skills and want to acces only via flying mount accesable ground in Endgame zone. :)

Kommentar von qhiiyr

For those who are wondering, no, this mount will not count towards your 50, even if you do get it before learning anything else.

Kommentar von Obsidian

As of this date, this mount counts as a Vehicle and thus (just tested this):

You won't get dismounted if dazed by a mob
You can mount it while in PvE or PvP combat
If you dismount while in the air, you get slowfall

Enjoy your free PvP escape! :)

Limitations are however:

Can only be flown in the zones Ice Crown, Storm Peaks and Sholazar Basin
60% Flying speed
If you log out while in the air, you will fall down upon logging in, because the mount disappears

Enjoy getting nowhere in all the time in the world! :)

Best. Item. Ever. for poor people like myself :(

Kommentar von 274789

Also, if you accidentally fall from a great height or get knocked off while in mid-flight for whatever reason, you can mount up on this while you're falling. Came in very handy when I accidentally fell from the cliffs in Winterspring down into Sholazar Basin (don't ask).

Use this command to "dismount";

/script VehicleExit()

For some odd reason I had no "Exit Vehicle"-button, but it could be due to buggy Bartender4.

Kommentar von 269661

What level do you need to be to get this?

My level 71 death knight cant get this :(

Kommentar von 181664

If I get cold-winter flying, does this go away?

I really really like killing people in towns and then mounting away while the gaurds are on me >:]

Kommentar von Silvanest

Free Mine Sweeper achivement with this beaty :)

Kommentar von Marimalino

Very good mount for the one that wants to get

Kommentar von Scar7500

adding:

/script VehicleExit()

to your mount macro makes exiting this super awesome mount easier

/script VehicleExit()
/script local m=GetZoneText() if (m=="Dalaran" or m=="Wintergrasp") and (GetSubZoneText()~="Krasus' Landing") then CallCompanion("MOUNT", 1);end
/use Bronze Drake; black war raptor
/dismount

is what i use, for example.

**** NO LONGER USABLE IN COMBAT OR WHILE MOVING

Kommentar von 310954

You can actually dive with this mount! land on the ground and walk in the water WITHOUT flying. then you will get down in the water without dismounting.

Kommentar von Mojorx

Can we narrow this down a lil ? 77 DK (friends toon) with no flying skill got the loaner riens , is this a mater of not having a flyer , or no 280% skill , or Cold Weather Flying ? I'm afraid to get "too" skilled to acuire this lil treasure !

Kommentar von atomsk87

Another cool fact bout it, but not so useful.

If you jump into another vehicle while mounting the windrider, the wind rider will still follow you around.

Do that 10 times and u have This

Have fun with ur slightly used windriders.

RofL Exact same coment was rated UP on the Loaned Griffon Reins Page
Did i roll with the rong Faction ? /facepalm /golfclap

Kommentar von Malvard

use after activating http://www.wowhead.com/?item=30847 for the most epic way to mount in the game.

Also after doing so, the mount will have a parachute attached as u fly, makes it look pretty pathetic, lol

Kommentar von Malsherz

Since this mount does count as a vehicle and not an actual mount I was able to complete the quest in Storm Peaks to get the tool in the middle of the mine field without having to walk through it myself. I was also able to complete the achievement Mine Sweeper(http://www.wowhead.com/?achievement=1428) without getting the knockback effect and getting dismounted.

Kommentar von 265206

I was using this guy today ... and i started some quest were i needed to mount onto a frostsaber
Anywho ... i did so , and my Loaner Flyer became a non-combat pet pretty much , just flew around with me , pretty awsum lol xD

Kommentar von Scar7500

can no longer be used in combat or while moving as of 3.1

Kommentar von 274087

This item is not removed from your inventory upon logging out. :)

Kommentar von 157377

Lol, funny that noone have noticed, but at can carry more then one person, I jumped on my mates Wind Rider :P I flew with it, pretty funny to control anothers flying mount :P My mate says he can't /dance, maybe because I'm on it. I have no problem dancing, tho :P

Kommentar von 163299

If ths item doesn't dissappear when u DO get cold flying... WHY on earth can't I get it once I have cold flying? /cry oh /cry!

Kommentar von 288486

Did you guys know that if you have someone who have the loaned mount in your party, you could ride with them? lol. try it. i freaked out!

EDIT - i think you have to have a loaned mount as well though.

Kommentar von 239718

Awsome this thing saved my broke ass

Kommentar von taurenmoo812

The idea of this mount is to give players who don't have the 1k gold they need for cold weather flying in northrend.

You can get this mount if you have basic flying skill, I'm not sure about epic flying skill, but if you don't pay for cold weather flying you can get this from the goblin in storm peaks.

A good idea, since storm peaks and icecrown Need a flying mount in order to move around, and not every player will have 1k gold at 77.

Also this mount is a same speed at basic flying mount, so its no slower then those ones, and I used 60% speed all through TBC so it makes no difference to me, don't write it off just because you fear the idea of a 60% mount.

Kommentar von desirie

Some recent patch turned this baby from a vehicle, to a mount. well, still not really a mount as it requires an item to summon, and does not get added to your mount tab. But all the fun stuff, like having a vehicle bar, and a second passenger doesn't seem to work anymore :(

Kommentar von 150126

Parachute is not included. Guess that's why it's a loaner.

Kommentar von Legbah

I acquired this on a 77 DK without even training basic (60%) flight skill. This is perfect for characters that just aren't worth the 2K gold required for flight + cold weather flying. Until 3.2 at least. ;)

Kommentar von 42643

can you still steal mount in 3.1.3?

Kommentar von drojann

As of patch 3.2, this item is no longer available from the vendor (unless there's a quest prereq), and can't be used. I had the item in my inventory and tried to use in Icecrown and got the message, "Can't use this item here." Went back to K3 and tried to use it in Storm Peaks and couldn't use it there either. Checked the vendor and he's missing his original flavor text.

Kommentar von 281529

I tried using the mount while in Brunhildar Village

can't be used anymore, wtf?

Kommentar von dehotz

As noted on the Loaned Gryphon Reins page this is currently broke as of 3.2. It only returns the message "You can't use that here." Apparently it still works if you buy or have bought the flying skills though. There are threads acknowledging this on the official forums, as of now there is still no blue notice I can find on this subject, guess we'll have to stay tuned for more info on this.

Item is currently broken as of patch 3.2.

Kommentar von 245849

I have the expert flying, not epic, no coldweather stuff and I can't use it in the areas. Why?

Kommentar von 144747

This item is broken after 3.2, at least on my character. Petitioning the GM said the developers are aware of the problem, but they didn't give an ETA on a fix. I'm curious if it only happened to people that already had the mount, or if the item is just broken for everybody? Can anyone else still use it?

Kommentar von Lochlathan

This isn't working as of 3.2...It says "You cannot use this here" while I'm in the areas it says it's allowed in. :(

Kommentar von 438889

I bought my regular flying and the loaner mount works just fine with no, cold weather flying... Not sure if this is a fix or not but, I'm up and flying =)

Kommentar von foxcg

as of patch 3.2 this is bugged. It does not work in any of the zones specified. I tried destroying it and getting a new one but still the same bugged result.

Kommentar von Eidrian

RECENT UPDATE! (8/19/2009)

Loaner mounts are now working properly! Rejoice!

Kommentar von SilvaGaidin

Bugged as of 3.2. Mount seems to no longer work. Awaiting a fix or notification from Blizzard on official standing.

Kommentar von MintySinty

Lower the cold weather flying cost and this'll all be dandy.

Kommentar von 288482

After 3.2, many people complained how they can't use this anymore. Any reasons why? or is it working as intended?

Kommentar von davies

For people who didn't/don't know. This is the exact same speed as the (now) level 60 flying mount. 60% on land, 150% flying.

Kommentar von 285488

I looked around for a macro but could not find one, so I made one myself:

#showtooltip Loaned Wind Rider Reins
/use Loaned Wind Rider Reins
/cancelaura Loaned Wind Rider

enjoy :)

Kommentar von 628031

how do you create them? is it in leatherworking?

Kommentar von Derren

Now works with crusader aura,I used the mount on my paladin. Before it didnt work because it was considered a siege vehicle.

Kommentar von 1025083

Honest Max in Storm peaks at level 77 will give you this mount as long as you dont have Cold Weather Flying go to this link and then Read about it "Ehrlicher" Max

Kommentar von Ashkir

You do not need any riding training for this. I leveled to 78 without any riding training at all.

Kommentar von 1452946

I used my Chauffeured Chopper to level my new alt until I got to the Storm Peaks, where I needed a flying mount in order to finish the quests. I got the Loaned Wind Rider Reins and even though my character would show up on the mount, I couldn't fly whatsoever. I contacted Blizzard and they said they were looking into whether or not this featured was removed from the game or a bug. So if you get to this point and it doesn't work for you either, Blizzard knows about it and who knows if there will be a fix or not. In the meantime, if you're a penny pincher like me, you'll have to buy the Cold Weather Mount to proceed, or run dungeons to get to 80. :)

Kommentar von Wuatdah

I remember these...

Kommentar von Belazriel

Requires Level 67 to acquire but can not be used as of BFA. Likely something was broken during the scaling change, not a big deal unless you're trying to start on a new server.

Kommentar von Tequima

As of Shadowlands, it requires you to be over level 25 and not yet have learnt the skill for flying mounts (Level 30).

However, it is broken and is now only a ground mount. (This may be related to a comment on the reins thread, where it states that it now requires Kaltwetterflug - which was removed in 7.3.5 and bundled into Artisan Flying).

It does not appear in your mount journal, but remains in your inventory.
