That arcane circle is the same one from an Evoker spell

Possibly the graphic used for the Hearthstone then?

[Valysar]

Well, is it Christmas?

No, but why would they hide a mount sold by someone in Kun Lai ?
We can see every holidays' mount in the journal iirc, not this one ?

[therumblings]

Looks about right to me

All the past holiday mounts are years old. No reason to hide them anymore. New mount stays encrypted untill event begins.

Weird to add this in 9.2.5, and not in the pre-patch
Maybe it's used for something else, when summoning the deluxe edition's mount/HS toy maybe ?

I am going to guess the Hearthstone. Seems about right for a Dragonflight themed Hearthstone to use a graphic used by Dracthyr.

Isn't the only thing possibly pointing to it being a christmas mount is the model being the sleigh?

Its a test mount, it could be a placeholder. The only reasons people thought it was for Christmas was the sleigh and that fake leak claiming a reindeer mount.

Did we ever get a model for the new slime saber mount?

Good point, I forgot that's coming in this patch because of the fated raids. I'm guessing it's encrypted.

I believe its texture was datamined but that was it.

[Dracullus]

Ah, this is possible with 9.2.5.? This is huge news for me I totally missed in the last weeks.

Yes, it's first thing I checked on PTR.

[Nyel]

In this pic the Dracthyr looks like a (slim) Doomguard...

Well, there's no need to keep it hidden and it's already done, might as well include it. All Dracthyr data will have to be in the base client anyway. Doesn't mean it will get used before 10.0.

Today, I will remind them of post #57995. No one believed, yet here we are.

What is it, I'm to lazy to go look it up

Good catch, but I suggest wait a bit for victory lap, we still are not 100% sure if it's 31st May or 7th June.

9.2.5 brings almost nothing "major", it can be released in one week imo

It's bigger than 9.1.5, which had 2 weeks notice. We will see, both dates are possible.

[Vasoka]

Why do people think preorders will open together with the official release date announcement? Have Blizzard said something?
