Patch 4.3 Spectral Gryphon and Wyvern Mounts
It looks like we even have a saturday news post this week, hurray! Along with the legendary dagger screenshot released yesterday, it seems that the official korean website released 2 extra screenshots of new spectral flying mounts.

There's no information on where players will be able to get them but it wouldn't be surprising to see them as rewards of the new Darkmoon Faire or any of the new features introduced with Patch 4.3. Thanks to annoyingmoose for his forum post about these mounts.





Well of Eternity - Updated Preview
The Patch 4.3 Dungeons Preview, Part Two: Well of Eternity has been updated with five new screenshots.

    I can. They did it for the wolf & whatever the alliance one was, so it simply follows that they'd do the same for flying mounts. I really wish they would do something about the wyvern, though, since the model doesn't translate well with the spectral skin.

    Nothing more than 7 year old textures with applied "ghostly blue" effect to them. Its not even "spectral" because spectral is actually looking like glass not ghostly IMO. Nothing special to get excited about really. Meh.I'm wondering why this came on korean site first tho.

    Please please please say these aren't the new achievement mounts. We deserve something way more badass than those.

    Speak for yourself. While I think the wyvern needs some love, I like having some spectral mounts.

    Any reason why you reversed the order of the pics? Gryphon was first, now it's under.

    The gryphon looks like it had it's model slightly modified, as in, it's head. The wyvern has as many polygons as I can count on all my limbs, it's embarrassing. They're mounts that I won't be paying for in any fashion, but that's really not what's important right now. Much more interest in the actual content and not this petty vanity.

    I like having spectral mounts as well, but to collect near 150 mounts and to hope for a really great mount as an achievement reward, this is VERY underwhelming to ME.

    Dont like those mounts...they have so overplayed the spectral look recently.

    Instance looks great. Im excited about the 4.3 5mans!

    Meh, making more spectral mounts makes them less unique. I do not like the idea of Blizzard adding more of them. Scrap it now!

    To many spectral mounts ugh...also, if they want to make it cool, remodel the wyvern and gryphons...seriously, they are SOOOO outdated.

    No one I know, playing or not, wants, wanted, or likes* to ride a Wyvern normally. Who would want to ride (and/or pay for one, as that's likely to be the case) a different colored one, eh?

    I think the model of the night elf there in the last image is Aszhara, and it's a new model like Thrall or Varian. Are they testing the waters for player model revamp? Because I'm totally on board with looking like that if I play a female NE.

    Ultima Online added more and more spectral mounts back in the day as well.
