Loyal Gorger

The Loyal Gorger is an uncommon ground mount from the Shadowlands expansion (patch 9.0.2). It is a tamed gorger pup — a unique race of creatures from the Maw that feed on anima. The mount moves on massive paws covered in crimson-purple chitinous armor.

The acquisition method is unusual: the mount does not drop from a boss directly. First you need to summon the rare elite Worldedge Gorger and loot a quest item from it, then tame the little gorger and complete a seven-day chain of daily quests, gradually raising it into an adult.

• Rare gorger model — there are few mounts of this race in the collection, and the Loyal Gorger shares its model with only a couple of Shadowlands "relatives" that are much harder to obtain today
• A story reward, not a lottery — unlike most Shadowlands mounts, this one is guaranteed at the end of the chain. You are certain to get it a week after starting the quests
• Solo content at max level — the entire activity is completed alone at level 80 without difficulty. The Worldedge Gorger drops in seconds in The War Within
• +60% / +100% speed — the mount travels at the maximum ground mount speed at any riding skill level
• Account-wide — once obtained, the mount appears in the collection of every character on the account, regardless of faction or class
• Thematic tie to the zone — if you are collecting the Revendreth mount set, the Loyal Gorger is a perfect addition

The path to the mount consists of three stages: preparing for the boss summon, acquiring the starting quest item, and the seven-day chain in the Endmire.

1. Complete the Endmire quest from Tessl Talespinner in Revendreth (coordinates /way 65.2 63.6). Without this flag the required quest item will not drop from the boss
2. Head to the southwest of Revendreth and farm gorger mobs until one of them drops Enticing Anima (about a 5–7% chance)
3. Approach the Worldedge Brazier around coordinates /way 38.6 72.0 and use the anima — the Worldedge Gorger will spawn at this spot
4. Kill the elite boss. At level 80 it goes down in 10–20 seconds. It drops the Impressionable Gorger Spawn — a quest item with about a 15–25% chance
5. Once obtained, the item automatically disappears from your bag, and the pup runs off into the Endmire. Head to it at coordinates /way 63.1 56.2
6. Each day for seven days, take one daily quest from the pup. The chain ends with the quest A New Pack, where you need to kill the Unbidden Worldeater together with your pet
7. After turning in the final quest, the Loyal Gorger appears in your collection

The entire activity takes place in Revendreth. To start, you need just two things: access to the zone and a completed Endmire quest.

The Endmire quest

The The Endmire quest is given by Tessl Talespinner at coordinates /way 65.2 63.6. The task is story-based: you need to find 5 saturated arubins. Without completing this quest, the Impressionable Gorger Spawn will not appear in the loot from the Worldedge Gorger, even if you kill it. This is a key check that players often forget.

Getting to Revendreth

• If you already have a character with Shadowlands, use the teleport in the capital of Oribos — from there a path is open to all four zones of the Shadowlands
• If you have never been to Shadowlands, approach Chromie in the capital and choose the Shadowlands travel line — it leads to the Shadowlands and opens the Revendreth storyline

Enticing Anima is the key consumable for summoning the boss. It is an uncommon bind-on-pickup item, with a drop chance around 5–7% from any gorger.

Farming zone

The Banewood is the southwestern part of Revendreth, marked on the map as a subzone with a dim lilac mist. The target coordinates are /way 38.6 72.0 (the boss summon point). Packs of small gorgers and devourers graze around the braziers around the clock.

Optimal route

1. Land at the braziers at coordinates /way 38.6 72.0
2. Clear gorgers in a circle within a radius of 80–100 yards
3. Return to the starting point roughly every 3–4 minutes — by then the mobs have respawned
4. When you get Enticing Anima, immediately use it on the nearest brazier

One anima is enough for a single summon. If the Impressionable Gorger Spawn does not drop from the boss, you will have to farm another anima and repeat the summon.

A useful detail

The brazier has a 1-minute cooldown after each summon. If you are hunting with a friend and already have an anima, wait for the cooldown to end — otherwise the item is consumed and the boss does not appear.

After the pup runs off into the Endmire, you will find it as a friendly NPC at coordinates /way 63.1 56.2. Each day it gives one daily quest — and only one. Resets happen daily at the moment the server data refreshes (overnight in local time).

The quests are completed at the same location within a 100-yard radius of the NPC. Each successive day the pup visibly grows — from the size of a large dog to an adult ready for full use.

The seven days do not have to be consecutive. If you missed a day, just take the next quest on your next visit. The chain does not reset.

The entire activity is previous-generation content, so the main optimization advantage is character level and preparation for farming anima.

Class and specialization

Specs with mass damage and mobility have the edge: Demon Hunter, Rogue (Subtlety), Monk (Windwalker), Warlock (Affliction). At level 80 the difference is small, but if you have an account packed with alts — take the one that moves faster and clears packs better.

Timing and farm sessions

• One full anima farming session takes 15–60 minutes depending on luck
• After the anima drops and the boss is summoned — another 1–2 minutes
• Seven days of dailies — each task is closed out in 3–5 minutes

In total: with average luck, you will have the mount in 7–10 days from the start.

Farming on multiple characters

The Impressionable Gorger Spawn is bind-on-pickup, so it cannot be transferred between alts. But the chain itself does not take much time, and if you have several characters who have completed the Endmire, you can run the chain on each in parallel. That said, the mount reward is still one per account — this only speeds up the process if you have bad luck with the drop on your main.

Anima farming tips

• Move along the braziers — don't stand in one place. Mobs respawn at different rates, and a circular route is enough for a continuous stream
• Keep a set hearthstone in Oribos — it instantly carries you to the capital and lets you quickly offload extra loot
• If you are farming for a long time — install the Rarity or SimpleFarm addon to see precise drop statistics
