The Auriferous Venomfang is a stunning serpent whose gleaming scales and deadly venom make it one of the most eye-catching mounts on the Coiled Isle. Its bright, almost luminous hide and sleek, predatory form make it a favourite among collectors who appreciate mounts with a regal yet dangerous aesthetic. The flavour text speaks to its deceptive nature: "Its stealth foiled by bright scales, this venomfang lurks among hidden treasure for the next meal." For collectors who value prestige and the satisfaction of completing a zone-wide treasure hunt, this mount is a true trophy — a symbol of your thorough exploration of the Coiled Isle and its hidden secrets.
Introduced in patch 12.1.0 as part of the Midnight Season 2 update, the Auriferous Venomfang offers a refreshing change of pace from the expansion's reputation-heavy mount farms. Instead of grinding world quests and weekly activities for weeks on end, this serpent rewards a different kind of dedication — the spirit of exploration and discovery. Scattered across The Coiled Isle are 22 hidden treasures, each waiting to be found, and claiming them all unlocks this dazzling mount. For collectors who enjoy the thrill of the hunt, solving puzzles, and uncovering every secret a zone has to offer, the Auriferous Venomfang is a perfect addition to any collection.
The Auriferous Venomfang is obtained by completing the Treasures of the Coiled Isle achievement, which requires you to find and loot all 22 treasures located across The Coiled Isle. This is a 100% guaranteed acquisition — there is no RNG involved, no rare spawns to camp, and no reputation grind to endure. Simply explore the island, locate each treasure, and the mount is yours.
Note: Each treasure is marked on the minimap with a chest icon, making them relatively easy to spot. However, some treasures require additional steps to unlock — such as solving puzzles, gathering items, or speaking to NPCs. The table below provides all the information you need for each treasure.
Before you can begin your treasure hunt, you must first unlock access to The Coiled Isle. The island is unlocked during the main campaign questline The Curse of Ula'tek in Patch 12.1.0 during Chapter 2. The quest What Lies Beyond the Fog sends you to the island.
Once you've completed the introductory questline, you are able to fly over to the island on every character that is part of your Warband. If you haven't completed the campaign on your main character, you will need to do so before you can access the island on your alts.
There are 22 treasures located across The Coiled Isle, each marked on the minimap with a chest icon. Each discovery rewards 50 reputation with Zul'jarra's Forces, but more importantly, collecting all 22 rewards you with the Auriferous Venomfang mount.
