Malavita
Malavita first discovered World of Warcraft in Draenor, but truly got into the game with the Shadowlands expansion. Has a soft spot for Demon Hunters and Mages. Considers her main goal to be collecting as many mounts as possible.
X-995 Mechanocat is a ground mount in the shape of a mechanical cat. The mount is crafted through the Junkyard Tinkering system on the island of Mechagon using the robot Pascal-K1N6 after learning the corresponding blueprint.
The X-995 Mechanocat is a fully customizable mount. You can repaint it in one of eight colors by visiting Marvelous Martini at Bondo's Yard.
To craft the mount you need to complete several steps: gain access to the island of Mechagon, buy the blueprint, and gather the crafting materials.
Blueprint: Mechanocat Laser Pointer from the NPC Cork Stuttguard for 500 gold. The purchase requires Friendly reputation with the Rustbolt Resistance factionMechanocat Laser Pointer| Material | Quantity | How to Obtain |
|---|---|---|
| S.P.A.R.E. Crate | 8 | Crafted from 250 Spare Parts at Pascal-K1N6. Spare Parts drop from mobs, chests, item scrapping, and fishing on Mechagon |
| Energy Cell | 5 | Looted on the island of Mechagon or charged from empty cells at the charging station at Bondo's Yard |
| Chain Igniter | 4 | Drops from rare enemies on Mechagon. Also rewarded by the quests "The Hunt" and "Recycling!" |
Mechagon is an island off the northern coast of Kul Tiras, added in patch 8.2. A first visit requires completing the introductory quest chain.
Once you have completed the introductory chain, use one of these methods:
One of the mount's main features is the ability to change its color. To do so, you need to find paint vials on Mechagon and bring them to Marvelous Martini at Bondo's Yard. After loading the paint, you can switch the mount's color at any time.
| Color | Source |
|---|---|
| Standard Black | Available immediately after crafting the mount |
| Mechagon Gold | Drops from the rare mob Armored Vaultbot |
| Fire Engine Red | Drops from the rare mob Crazed Trogg |
| Lemonade Steel | Drops from the rare mob The Scrap King |
| Beefy Bronze | Drops from the rare mob Rumblerocks |
| Rich Copper | Reward from the Rustbolt Resistance paragon cache |
| Overcharged Orange | Drops from the rare mob Boggac Skullbash |
| Tainted Mint | Drops from the rare mob Crazed Trogg |
| Beaten-Up Blue | Reward for the achievement Available in Eight Colors (collect all other colors) |
Start with reputation — Friendly reputation with the Rustbolt Resistance is enough to buy the blueprint, which can be reached within a few days of doing daily quests on Mechagon
Spare Parts add up fast — kill mobs, open chests, and scrap unwanted items on Mechagon. You need 2,000 Spare Parts for 8 S.P.A.R.E. Crates, but with active farming this takes one or two play sessions
Chain Igniters are the rarest material — they drop from rare enemies on Mechagon with a small chance. Check the map for rare mobs daily. Since patch 8.2.5 they can also be crafted
The charging station isn't always available — the charging station at Bondo's Yard only works when the corresponding project is active. If it's unavailable, gather charged Energy Cells directly from rare mobs and chests
Customization paints are a nice bonus — don't spend time farming paints on purpose. They will drop naturally while you play on Mechagon. Once you collect all seven, you get the eighth color as a bonus
Fishing on Mechagon is useful — you can fish Spare Parts and even empty Energy Cells out of Mechagon's waters, combining fishing leveling with material gathering
It's easier at max level — at level 80 the mobs on Mechagon die instantly, and all rare enemies are easily soloed. The whole process of obtaining the mount takes anywhere from a few days to a week
