Harbor Gryphon

Harbor Gryphon is an epic flying mount added in patch 10.1.5 of the Dragonflight expansion. It is a gryphon that grew up in the harbor of Boralus, who never went to training alongside its kin, but over time grew strong and is ready to prove its worth. The mount is granted for free upon completing the Time to Fly quest and is available only to Alliance characters.

In the mount journal, the Harbor Gryphon is described as follows: "This gryphon was the smallest of its flock. It wasn't taken to training with the others. But today it's ready to prove what it's capable of." Visually, the mount differs from standard gryphons with a more compact and graceful silhouette.

• Completely free — obtaining the Harbor Gryphon requires no gold, reputation grinding, or completing difficult content. You just need to reach Boralus and talk to an NPC
• Available from level 30 — the quest appears automatically as soon as your Alliance character reaches level 30. Starting with patch 10.1.5, the riding skill is also learned automatically at level 30, so you don't need to spend gold on flight training
• Ground and flying — the mount works both on the ground and in the air. Movement speed depends on your riding skill
• Unique model — the Harbor Gryphon visually differs from the gryphons you can buy from vendors. It has a more modest yet memorable appearance of a harbor "stray" gryphon
• Available to all characters — once learned, the mount appears in the collection on every character of your account

Obtaining the Harbor Gryphon takes literally a couple of minutes. The Time to Fly quest appears automatically for any Alliance character who has reached level 30 when visiting Boralus.

1. Make sure your Alliance character has reached level 30. If you play for the Horde, this mount is unavailable to you — instead, you will receive the Time-Displaced Titanic Disc from a similar NPC in Dazar'alor
2. Reach Boralus (more on how to get to the city in the section below). Upon entering the city, the Time to Fly quest will appear automatically
3. Open the quest log and track the Time to Fly quest. A marker showing the location of Leila Stafford will appear on the map
4. Find Leila Stafford at the Tradewinds Market in Boralus. She stands in the western part of the market square

5. Talk to the NPC and complete the quest. You will receive the Harbor Gryphon as a reward
6. Use the obtained item — the mount will be added to your collection

1. Head to Stormwind
2. Find the portal room in the Mage Tower (Mage Quarter district)
3. Use the portal to Boralus
4. You will arrive in Boralus Harbor, from where it's just a few steps to the Tradewinds Market
