Get Sinfall Gargon mount

Sinfall Gargon is an uncommon ground mount from the Shadowlands expansion (patch 9.0.1). It is a massive stone-fleshed carnivorous beast of the Venthyr covenant, threaded with veins of crimson anima glow, one of the many gargons abandoned in Sinfall and awakened by Prince Renathal for his uprising. According to the item description, gargons are devoted companions of the Venthyr, and this specimen is granted only to worthy members of the covenant.

The mount is sold by Chachi the Artiste — the quartermaster of the Venthyr covenant — in the Sinfall sanctum in Revendreth. The purchase becomes available after reaching Renown level 23 with the Venthyr and costs 5,000 Reservoir Anima. Before patch 11.0.2, the mount was hard-bound to the covenant: only active Venthyr members could use it. After the introduction of the warband system, the restriction was eased — upon reaching Venthyr Renown level 80, the mount becomes available to all characters in your warband.

• A unique gargon model — a lizard-like predator with a stone back and glowing anima runes. There are no equivalents outside of Sinfall: all gargon mounts are tied exclusively to the Venthyr
• Speed 10 out of 10 — ground speed of +60% or +100% depending on your riding skill, meaning the maximum for ground transport
• The start of the gargon collection — the Sinfall Gargon opens up the line of covenant mounts: next come the Hopecrusher Gargon and the Crypt Gargon (a campaign reward)
• Available at any time — Shadowlands content remains relevant at level 90 in Midnight. You complete the quests faster than at release and gain Renown in a matter of weeks
• A thematic Venthyr reward — if you are drawn to the gothic style of Revendreth, the mount fits perfectly into a transmog and the overall look of a sinner hunter
• A permanent unlock — once purchased, the mount stays in your collection and remains yours even after switching covenants

Obtaining the Sinfall Gargon is a chain of three steps: joining the Venthyr covenant, accumulating Renown level 23, and purchasing it from the quartermaster.

1. Level your character to 60 (minimum) and complete the introductory Shadowlands campaign in Oribos
2. Complete the quest Choosing Your Purpose from Tal-Inara and join the Venthyr covenant by accepting Draven's offer
3. Complete covenant campaign quests, weekly callings, Torghast tasks, and world bosses to raise your Renown
4. Once you reach Renown level 23, head to Sinfall
5. Find Chachi the Artiste on the main level of the sanctum next to the Keeper of Renown
6. Buy the Sinfall Gargon for 5,000 Reservoir Anima
7. Use the item — the mount will be added to your character's collection

Before heading to Chachi the Artiste, make sure all the prerequisites are met. Without active membership in the Venthyr covenant, the vendor will not sell you the mount.

What to do if you are already in another covenant

Since update 9.1.5, covenants can be switched freely, without penalties. You can switch to the Venthyr, level up Renown, buy the mount, and switch back — the gargon will stay with you forever. To change covenants, approach the corresponding leader in Oribos and choose a new path.

Chachi the Artiste stands in the heart of Sinfall — the underground sanctum of the Venthyr covenant, located in the Ember Ward in the west of Revendreth.

1. Travel to Revendreth through the Shadowlands portal in Oribos
2. Activate the Sinfall flight point (it appears after joining the covenant)
3. Descend to the main level of the sanctum — Renathal, the Keeper of Renown, and the quartermasters are located there
4. Use a macro for precise targeting of Chachi:

If you have not yet unlocked the flight point, you can reach the sanctum from Castle Nathria — move to the southwest through the story points, or use the covenant ability Door of Shadows to teleport to the nearest threshold.

Renown level 23 requires approximately 2,300–2,700 reputation units, accounting for the alt penalty. The main way to speed up leveling is to complete all available Renown sources at once.

Weekly sources

• Covenant campaign — the main source: one chapter per week grants 2–3 Renown levels
• Weekly calling — 1 Renown level per completion (available from Renown level 48 of the account-wide boost)
• Covenant Assaults (the "Covenant Assault" quests) — 1 level on the first completion of the week
• The Grand Arena of Artistry — the world boss of the week
• The Twisting Corridors of Torghast (layers 1–8) — Renown for the first completion of each layer

Daily sources

• Quests in Revendreth (especially in Castle Nathria and the Court)
• Soulbind story quests
• Gathering anima throughout Revendreth — it also grants Reservoir Anima for the mount purchase along the way

The catch-up mechanic

When returning to Renown leveling in 11.x, Blizzard kept a "catch-up" cap — the maximum Renown level of past seasons. A character joining a covenant for the first time now gets accelerated progression: the first 40 levels go by in a matter of hours while actively completing the campaign. Set aside time for a weekend — you can effectively close out Renown level 23 in one or two evenings.

The mount purchase requires 5,000 Reservoir Anima. That is quite little by Shadowlands standards — significantly less than for Sanctum upgrades.

• Each quest in Revendreth grants 35–75 anima
• Anima chests in the open world — 50–175 units
• Assaults and world bosses — 250+ units per event
• Callings — 250 units per task

If you level Renown and gather anima at the same time, by the time you reach level 23 the sum of 5,000 is usually already accumulated or very close to the goal.
