Overview

Dauntless Imperial Lynx

Game iconDauntless Imperial Lynx is an epic ground mount added in patch 11.0.0 of The War Within expansion. It is a graceful battle lynx clad in battered armor with a single surviving "Dauntless" patch. The mount drops from the Game iconLamplighter Supply Satchel, which you receive for taking part in the Spreading the Light world event in the Hallowfall zone.

The drop chance is roughly 0.6% (about 1 in 165 according to community data); however, over the course of a week you can open many satchels across several characters, which noticeably improves your odds.

Why You Want This Mount

  • Unique model — the Dauntless Imperial Lynx belongs to the Hallowfall imperial lynx family. Its battered armor and battle-worn look set it apart from its more ornate kin
  • Free to obtain — the mount is acquired purely through in-game activity. You won't have to spend gold or real money
  • Multi-character farming — the event is available to any level 80 character, and the mount is account-bound. The more characters you have, the better your chances
  • Pairs with other content — during the event you also earn resonance crystals, reputation with the Hallowfall Arathi faction, and gear from radiant caches
  • Companion included — the lynx has a companion pet, Game iconArgos, which can also be obtained in Hallowfall

Requirements

  • Level 90 character
  • Completed The War Within main campaign (for access to Hallowfall world events)
  • Riding skill (at least "Apprentice Riding")

How to Reach the Event

The Spreading the Light event takes place in the northeastern part of Hallowfall, in the Lightbloom area. You can get there as follows:

  1. Use a flight point to Lightbloom or the nearest hub in Hallowfall
  2. Head toward the central area marked on the map with golden markers

Coordinates of the central keyflame:

/way Hallowfall 64.26 30.18 Main Keyflame

Coordinates of the lesser keyflames:

/way Hallowfall 63.29 29.39 Lesser Keyflame #1 /way Hallowfall 64.55 30.54 Lesser Keyflame #2 /way Hallowfall 65.40 28.19 Lesser Keyflame #3 /way Hallowfall 63.68 33.66 Lesser Keyflame #4

Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1: Reach the Lightbloom Area

Fly into Hallowfall and head to the northeastern part of the zone. The event area is located around the Hillhelm Family farmstead and the surrounding fields.

Step 2: Gather Radiant Remnants

Kill mobs in the event area — they drop radiant remnants. This resource can also be found in small chests and interactive objects scattered across the area. To activate the four lesser keyflames you will need a minimum of 12 radiant remnants (3 for each).

Step 3: Activate the Lesser Keyflames

Approach each of the four lesser keyflames and deposit 3 radiant remnants. When a keyflame is activated, a daily quest from the lamplighters appears nearby. Complete it and you will receive a Lamplighter Supply Satchel.

List of daily quests offered at the keyflames:

  • Defender of the Flame
  • A Glow in the Dark
  • Shades of Scent
  • Right Between the Gyro-Optics
  • Lost in the Dark
  • Sweet Eclipse
  • Harvest Hijinks
  • Supply Assistance
  • A Web of Manipulation
  • Chew on This
  • Crab Grab
  • Blooming Delight
  • Sporadic Growth
  • Lizard Marauders

Each of these quests rewards one Lamplighter Supply Satchel.

Step 4: Fuel the Main Keyflames (Bonus)

The main keyflames require 20 radiant remnants to activate. After depositing the remnants, a 20-minute buff and a bonus objective in the vicinity begin. When the timer expires, an elite enemy appears. Completing the bonus objective can also reward a Lamplighter Supply Satchel.

Step 5: Complete the Weekly Quest

After activating the four lesser keyflames you will complete the weekly quest Spreading the Light. The reward is a radiant cache with Veteran-level gear, valorstones, crest fragments, and reputation with the Hallowfall Arathi faction.

Step 6: Open the Satchels

Open all the Lamplighter Supply Satchels you have collected. Besides the mount chance, they drop resonance crystals, lamplighter transmog items, and rare trinkets (Game iconImperfect Ascendancy Serum).

Farming Optimization

Weekly Plan for One Character

Over a single week on one character you can obtain roughly 14–17 Lamplighter Supply Satchels from three sources:

  1. Daily quests at the lesser keyflames — the main source of satchels. Activate the flames and complete the quests that appear
  2. Bonus objectives at the main keyflames — deposit 20 radiant remnants and complete the objectives that appear
  3. The "Defender of the Flame" quest — a world quest that appears periodically

Multi-Character Farming

The event is available to all level 90 characters on the account. Since the mount's drop chance is low, it is recommended to:

  • Run the event on 3–5 characters weekly
  • With 15 satchels per character and 5 characters, you will open about 75 satchels a week
  • Statistically, at a 0.6% chance you will need an average of 165 satchels to obtain the mount — that is about 2–3 weeks of active farming across several characters

Efficient Route

  1. Fly to coordinates 64.26, 30.18 — the center of the event
  2. Kill mobs until you have gathered enough radiant remnants
  3. Activate the nearest lesser keyflame, complete the daily quest
  4. Move on to the next lesser flame and repeat
  5. When you have accumulated spare remnants, deposit 20 into the main keyflame and complete the bonus objective

Tips

1

Check the minimap — lesser keyflames and daily quests are shown with golden markers on the minimap when you are in the event area

2

Don't hoard the satchels — open them as you receive them. Some players have reported issues with satchels in the warband bank, so it is recommended to open them right away

3

Elite mobs give more remnants — when killing the elite enemies that appear after the main keyflame timer, you will get more radiant remnants than from regular mobs

4

Use the TomTom addon — import the keyflame coordinates for convenient navigation around the event area

5

Don't get discouraged — the drop chance is low, but with regular farming the mount will sooner or later end up in your collection. Many players get it within the first month of active farming

6

Watch for updates — with new patches Blizzard sometimes increases the drop rate of mounts from world events. Check the patch notes

Started playing back in Pandaria, when the pandaren were still a novelty. Got stuck on Monk because it's the only class where you don't get dizzy after a dash. Tries to manage both tanking and kicking enemies in the face.
