looks like we're getting the Headless Horseman's Skeleton horse mount ^_^ hopefully THIS one wont have fangs.

Kommentar von Spl4sh3r

Since it has the text "This mount changes depending on Riding skill and location." it can mean it's flying too =)

Does anyone know the drop rate for this item?

Kommentar von texanwmn

The drop rate cannot be too bad, there are already 5+ people on our server with them.

Kommentar von 233055

i dont believe that the droprate on the mount is all that bad, its been 3 days into event and we have at least 3 ppl in my guild with this mount and i have been seeing lots of other players with the mount with it only being the 3rd or 4th day into the event but the squashling and hallowed helm seem impossible to get

Kommentar von Fwibbles

I see scrubs in greens with this.
Its more or less a feat of strength as bending a paper clip.
W E L F A R E B O S S -not much 'strength' or 'skill'

Its a random drop.Low, but random. Got this on my 4th run. There's always next year!

Kommentar von 235651

Its over for this year but i ran this thing dozens of times a day, i killed him a good 500-700 times before it dropped once, and that was on holloween. I seen the sword like 20 times the squashling like 20 times and the helmet probly 30 times and the hollowed helm about 60 times and only 1 mount, which i got

I've already got this one. Actually I'm proud of it, though I hope Blizzard will change some details of this mount the next event so that not to look just as the one from the previous year's event, for instance its colours in order to be able to recognise which Horseman's Mount is from which year etc. Look, I - as a person who has it - do not want everyone to have it (it can sound a bit selfish). Every year the number of ppl who have it will rise and soon this mount will lose its charm... (as I can call it so). So, I think every owner will agree with me. Do not remove this mount from drop, only change some details not to look the same, just similar to the one from the previous year's event!

Kommentar von 270478

i did him 5 times every day during the whole event but i didnt even see it drop :( but i saw sinister Squashling drop 2 times per day.....

Kommentar von Estren

What about giving the mount arround the group, that all get this achievement?^^

Kommentar von Mongatsumi

You can use this script to link you have completed it! It's fake though.

/run DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage("\124cffffff00\124Hachievement:980:"..strsub(UnitGUID("player"),3)..":1:10:19:9:0:0:0:0\124h\124h\124r")

This Droprate is Quite Low - if you killed yourself for a brewfest mount, well, Your going to have to kill yourself even more for this. 0.4 Droprate. If you round up 400 people, i guarentee 1,2 or none of them will have this.

THe Headless Horseman is a boss during Hallows end in which you kill once every day (well 5 times, because each person gets one summon, again, like brewfest) . . . . . . .

Also, Please dont ninja, someone might become veerrry upset =(

Kommentar von Redhawk

I got this a while back (this year) the first time I did HH for the year...
I can confirm that he does fly. (Only if my account was still active i would post a picture).
Sadly, the game must have a punishment for such a treat, and my time ran out before i could finish Hollow's End Title =(.
BUT..I can CONFIRM that he flies, has no fangs, and is seemingly different from the Fiery Warhorse.

Kommentar von Siedjeey

I did the HH boss each day during the holiday and i saw it drops only ONCE!
I hate Blizzard for their damn low droprates.... I really thought it was a prank untill I actually saw it drop...
Hope they'll change the droprate next year.

Blizzard made an really interesting announcement about the future of eventbosses!

Just to clarify some misconceptions about this new functionality, the summoning of holiday bosses is going away. Players can queue for these bosses via the Dungeon Finder or special holiday NPCs found in the world. Once the party is finalized, the group will be ported directly to the area where the holiday boss resides. Players can kill the holiday bosses as often as they want for standard loot (epic rings, trinkets, etc.), however, they will only drop one holiday-themed loot trove per player per day. These loot troves will have a chance of containing rare holiday items such as The Horseman's Reins.

On the one hand this means, you no langer can take alts and let them summon the boss to get your the mount/ pet etc. but on the other it also means that you no longer need to roll against your group mates which increases the chance of getting a rare drop incredibly, if they dont lower the dropchance.

well after witnessing this year's brewfest, these "rare" mounts seems to have become a complete joke tbh.
I have a couple of duplet rams in the bank now and on one of my alts I got both the ram and the kodo in the same loot-trove.

I was happy getting this mount on my old main, because it's always fun to have something really rare. especially from holiday events, because people can only farm those for a very limited amount of time per year.

now, all you need to do is click the dungeon finder once per day and you'll most likely get it during the holiday event unless you are extremely unlucky.

I don't understand why they would do this. it just takes away everything that is truly unique about getting something like this.

Kommentar von Ashvael

Confirmed the mount now drops from the bag.

A friend of me got it on our first run tonight, wondering if it was just really lucky or if the droprate got buffed to compensate for the only "once/day".

Kommentar von whitehusky

This mount now drops from the loot bag you receive from killing the boss. You can only get the bag once per day. Subsequent attempts to kill the boss will not result in more loot bags, so it would be a waste of time if this is the only item you're after.

Kommentar von Devinedragoon

Ok now this is straight up bull a friend of mine comes back after 3 months and gets the mount in the first show on 2 toons in the same day. i've done it on 4 toons a days since monday and nothing.

Kommentar von ivkoni

I just have it on my mage on Emeriss EU. I did only a few runs (4-8).

Kommentar von Jakesterwars

3 years.. just 3 years farming this mount and on the first day I do a Headless Horseman run I get it in the Pumpkin bag. I didn't know how to react. It was either be angry because it was that easy to get after so long, or relieved because I didn't have to do it anymore.

Kommentar von 1041399

More drops Rate.. like 10% would be good!

Kommentar von Vishtara

Won it when you had to manually summon the horseman in SM in 2009. No longer have that account since I got rid of it when I quit the game. Started playing again in 2010 >.< Fresh.

Every year since, I was depressed seeing other people with it because I didn't have it anymore, and the chance I would get it again was very freaking low. I ran the daily HH on countless toons to no avail for 2 years, with nothing but tricky treats and 50,000 brooms, to try and get it again.

This year I figured it was pointless to even bother, because it has such a low droprate, and actually forced myself to queue. Watched loot rolls from each group and didn't see one drop since the event began. That didn't help. I only have 2 90's so the fact that the xpack was released right before the event made me even more bitter. I was actually going to skip it today, and when I opened my pumpkin bag I was more or less at least hoping for a helm to d/e for enchanting mats.

When I looted the bag and saw that familiar icon appear, I thought I was dreaming. I actually screamed and my husband thought something was wrong with me. Just keep trying guys, it can happen. Account wide means you will never have to do the HH boss again except for other loot when you do get it. Cheers!

Kommentar von Longfeng

After years I finally managed to get it on 18/10/2015. Awesome :)

2023 HOLIDAY REFRESH 10/27/2023 PATCH 10.1.7

Obtained Die Zügel des Reiters today from Beutegefüllter Kürbis on my 2nd alt of the day. I randomly logged on my alt to do Korthia rares and I decided to do the dungeon to waste some time while waiting for a spawn and it dropped. I used all the buffs provided by the Wicker-Men. I also unfortunately got hit by something so I had stacks of Wicker Man's Shadow. I don't know for sure if this proves it doesn't just count on your first character of the day, but from my own experience it most likely does. This was also my first ever time doing this event, despite having my account and playing since 2014.

Things I have learned about this mount:
1) You must be at least level 60 (as of 2023 patch 10.1.7) or you will be given the blue equivalent item... Prall gefüllter Kürbis this DOES NOT drop the mount.
2) The mount can drop on any of your alts.
3) There is an increased drop rate to your first character of the day, and that increases when you get the curses by all four Wicker-Men.
4) The large Wicker-Men in the middle of the 5 in total, will provide you with all 4 curses, so no need to click each Wicker-Men separately.
5) it is best to get each buff before the encounter starts even on your alts, it still seems to increase your chances of obtaining the mount.
6) Something people are confused about is the de-buff stacks you get if you get hit by anything (if you don't do the mechanics correctly). If you get hit, you get a stack of a de-buff called Schatten des Weidenmanns. This will apply a de-buff that lowers your health substantially every other time you get hit. This de-buff only gets applied up to 10 stacks. At 10 stacks all your curses get removed (if you haven't already died). Even if you get hit during the fight, as long as you do not die and do not get 10 stacks of the de-buff (removing all your curses) you are still eligible to receive the mount and from my understanding you still get a buffed drop chance from the curses.

Small note for people trying to get Finstere Berufung:
You can easily get this by running the dungeon encounter on a under leveled alt (preferably level 50-55) and guaranteeing a Prall gefüllter Kürbis.
Your chances of getting the helm are increased by getting the curse buffs, and instead of having the horseman on the loot table as the rarest item, its the helm. This doesn't increase the chances by a lot, but it removes some of the other options you can get from the loot table.
***I also learned that in order to get the achievement checked off, you need to learn both of the items on the character, meaning if you have 3/3 of the pets, you need to release one of them, then learn it on the character. This means that the achievement is written wrong. The use of the word "obtain" in the achievement does not mean it needs to be in your bags, it needs to be learned (I think this is just something they never fixed in the writing). I have a suspicion that you may be able to buy the helm with tricky treats, instead of "obtain(ing)" it, since I don't think the game can check if you obtained a transmog item through an event once you learn it.

Hope all of this helped any of you! Happy hunting!

Here's a pretty good guide on how to increase your drop chance in the new 2023+ Hard mode version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ql93h2A2q8Q&t=3s
