Get Pale Riding Crane mount

Pale Riding Crane is a ground mount added to World of Warcraft alongside the limited-time WoW Remix: Mists of Pandaria event (patch 10.2.7, May 2024). It is a huge snow-white crane with pale-grey plumage and the distinctive long neck of the Pandaren carrier cranes. Its name and coloration reference the biblical image of the "pale horse," making the mount a stylistically consistent addition to the collection of winged riding birds.

The mount was sold for Bronze — the internal currency of the Remix event — by the dwarf Hemet Nesingwary XVII, who stood in the Infinite Bazaars across every Pandaria zone. Its price was 2,200 Bronze. After the event ended (August 2024), the mount became unavailable for purchase and remained only with players who managed to buy it during the Remix window.

• Limited-event exclusive — the Reins of the Pale Riding Crane were handed out only during WoW Remix: Mists of Pandaria and are no longer sold. The mount instantly became a collector's rarity and highlights the status of a player who was there for the event
• Speed 10 out of 10 — as a ground mount it receives a +60% or +100% movement-speed bonus depending on your riding skill, meaning it travels at the top speed of any ground transport
• Unique pale model — unlike the classic azure, golden and regal cranes from Mists of Pandaria, the pale coloration appeared only in Remix together with five other new variants and does not overlap with the regular collection
• Available account-wide — once obtained, the mount unlocks for every character on your account, regardless of faction and class
• Low Bronze price — 2,200 Bronze is the minimum cost among the mounts in Hemet Nesingwary XVII's stock. A single active play session during the event gathered enough currency to buy the mount without lengthy farming

The only path to the mount ran through the limited-time WoW Remix: Mists of Pandaria event. As of today the item is unavailable at retail, but according to historical data the process was as follows.

1. Create or select a character in the Remix: Mists of Pandaria event (available from May 16 to August 19, 2024)
2. Complete the Pandaria campaign, daily quests, scenarios, dungeons and raids to accumulate Bronze
3. Open the map and find the nearest Infinite Bazaar — the camps of the infinite dragons were placed in every Pandaria zone
4. Approach Hemet Nesingwary XVII and open his shop window
5. Buy the Reins of the Pale Riding Crane for 2,200 Bronze
6. Use the item — the mount is automatically added to your account's collection

The pale crane is one of six new variants added with the Remix event. They were all sold by the same vendor for the same price and differed only in the model's coloration. If you caught the event, it was most worthwhile to buy the entire series at once.

Buying the mount for 2,200 Bronze took just one or two days of active play in the event. If you planned to collect the whole crane series (13,200 Bronze for six), it was worth knowing the most efficient currency sources.
