Will You Get The Horseman’s Reins This Year? (149 Comments)

63446[1]

That’s a very rare mount, and one of the least likely to obtain.  Players who are trying to fly in headless style are up against these odds: the mount is a 1% drop chance, from a (very easy) 5-man boss, that each person in the party can pull separately once per day.  So you can participate in as many pulls per day as people are willing to share with you, but you’ll have to roll against the others in the party if it drops.  And if you do five pulls per day for all 14 days of Hallow’s End, you still only have a 70% chance of seeing it drop.  Once.

  1. I love my HH mount. Didn’t realize how lucky I was when I got it last year. Anyway, I was directed to your blog from a freind. I’m looking forward to listening to the podcasts. Hope I made it in time for the Grunty drawing!

  2. Me, pick me!

    You see, I’m getting picked on at school. And Grunty would be an excellent body guard. I can’t wait to see that bully Jenny Jones run away scare when Grunty gets in her face!

  3. he only comes out at night… for the days are much to bright.. throwing down pumpkins with much might.. grab the buckets, there’s fire to fight!

  4. Man I really wanted to go to Blizcon and my dad said I cant get it con tv because he said “it was a waste of money” but I hope I will at least get the pet

  5. I’d rather have the mount than the Merloc, but I got the pay per view so I have grunty. I’d love to get one for my wife me I just need to go kill that headless guy.

  6. You can get more then 5 attempts if you have some people bring in their alts in after they use their mains charge. I’m doing this every night with 4 other people in my guild and we get in about 12 attempts. Awesome mount though as you can use it as both a ground mount and a flying mount.

  7. woothoo the Horsemans reins are so kickass, i lost the roll this morning to some idiot in greens DX i guess ill jsut have to learn to roll with guildies more GRUNTY IS AWESOME /hug grunty!

  8. Via my iPhone: great show love every episode!
    I also loved how my first HH group got 10 summons no mount but now I have a pumpkin head n matching pet!

  9. I’m not going for the mount as my highest character is only level 71, and I am only in a guild with me and 2 other people, so no one will take me in. Oh well I will try for my chance next year! Hopefully I can win a pet instead :-)

  10. It’s all about penguins, pumpkins and pompous rhyming headless horsemen this time of year,
    I need a change – allow me to look after Grunty ((I’ll give him a good home in the undercity ooze))

  11. Just got my Obey Henry Stickers!, Thanks Scott!

    I passed out about 20 at my work to my friends and some of them were like “What is this, Obey Henry?”
    I told them to Obey, and that would be enough. The gamer friends are still looking for a better answer.
    Told them it was a private joke, and that the stickers show up in obscure places. Someone should do a Wiki on the Obey Henry sticker/meaning.

    I love th show, and listen religiously. I can tell you that listening to your show has improved my WOW experience 100 fold, and my game play is much better. I especially like the MOD of the Week, and the Drop of the Week. segments. and the Quick Fire questions are hilarious.

    BTW, thanks to your podcast I was able to acheive the title “Brewmaster” this past brewfest.
    Thanks again
    Brewmaster Agarlas 76 DK Human, in the “Total Loosers” guild, on Terrokar server.

  12. I’m doomed – I’ve already seen it once and rolled a whopping 16. I got both brewfest mounts, so I’ve probably used up my mount roll quota for awhile

  13. Yes, am praying for the horseman’s reins to drop. Yes, would LOVE to see the squashling land for my many guildmates that all want them. However, for the love of all-things Alexstraza, PLEASE do not eat on the air ~ again ~

    hugs and nibbles,

    Niik
    …with a chimera shot ready if you do. :-p

  14. I saw the mount drop twice in one run, and I rolled a 78 to be beat by a 79…. :( I really want a murloc, I’m an avid pet collecter and I didnt get one for streaming Blizzcon, it sucks. =/

  15. i saw this mount drop was year . it went to a guildie of mine. i lost the roll by like 2. i have been going everyday to kill the horseman for his mount. hope i get it this year

  16. On Tichondrius last night from 8 PM till 1 AM EST the lag was horrible and almost unplayable, even inside instances. not to mention i hate the fact that this is inside horde territory. Why isn’t there an instance/quest that takes place in Alliance territory!? Die multiple times just to get tons of server lag… Blizz plays Horde I tell ya!!

  17. Howdy guys I hope I can win! I have never seen the mount drop either but I will be running it like a starving monkey in a banana store!

  18. I’ve done this for 3 years now and have’nt seen it drop once, my pal got the reins one night but he is the only one I know that has seen it. I have all the other toys though, btw collecting the flimsy masks sux!

  19. When Kara was the place to raid, I always wanted the Midnight mount to drop and it never dropped out of the 100 times I killed Atunmen. AND the HH mount looks just like it and IT FLYS!!! really cool. hoping to get the ncp
