The Azureshell Krolusk is a magnificent, armored creature whose azure carapace and sturdy, reptilian form embody the resilience and martial might of the Alliance. Its shimmering blue shell, powerful claws, and steady, ground-shaking stride make it a favourite among collectors who appreciate mounts with a regal, militaristic aesthetic. The flavour text speaks to its disciplined nature: "Krolusks are prized for their loyalty and their willingness to charge into battle without hesitation." For Alliance players who value prestige and a connection to the front lines of the Battle for Azeroth, this mount is a true trophy — a symbol of your dedication to the Alliance war effort.
Introduced in patch 8.1.0 "Tides of Vengeance", the Azureshell Krolusk stands as one of the most prestigious Alliance-exclusive rewards from the Warfront system. Unlike many rare mounts that rely on luck, this reward is earned through a combination of consistent effort, strategic currency farming, and dedication to the Alliance cause. The krolusk is not just a mount — it is a symbol of your commitment to the Warfront campaign, a companion that carries the weight of your victories in one of Azeroth's most contested battlegrounds. For collectors who value reliability over RNG, this mount offers a clear and rewarding path, though one that requires patience, coordination, and a willingness to engage deeply with the Warfront system.
The Azureshell Krolusk is purchased from Provisioner Stoutforge in Boralus for 200 7th Legion Service Medals. This is a 100% guaranteed acquisition — there is no RNG involved, no rare spawns to camp, and no low drop rates to overcome. Simply earn the required currency and buy the mount.
The vendor is located on the docks of Boralus Harbor, in front of the ship Wind's Redemption. Use the following coordinates:
The mount is Bind-on-Pickup when purchased, and once learned, it is added to your account-wide collection. Because this mount is Alliance-exclusive, Horde players cannot purchase it directly. However, Horde players who earn the corresponding achievement will receive the Rubyshell Krolusk, which is the Horde equivalent of this mount. Purchasing the Azureshell Krolusk on an Alliance character will automatically grant the Rubyshell Krolusk for your Horde characters as well.
7th Legion Service Medals are the primary currency for the Warfront system. They are earned by completing various activities related to the Warfront campaign in Battle for Azeroth. The Azureshell Krolusk requires a significant investment of these medals, so understanding how to earn them efficiently is key to acquiring the mount.
Warfronts are large-scale, 10-player PvE scenarios where you and your faction work together to capture resources, build structures, and siege the enemy base. They rotate weekly between the two Warfront zones: Arathi Highlands and Darkshore. Each Warfront has a different set of quests and activities that reward Service Medals.
As of The War Within prepatch, Service Medals are transferrable between all characters on your account (same faction only), so farming on multiple alts is highly recommended.
Before you can begin earning Service Medals, you must unlock access to the Warfront system. This requires progressing through the Battle for Azeroth endgame campaign.
Step 1 – Unlock World Quests
After completing these three steps, you should be able to access Warfront content and begin earning Service Medals.
Below is a breakdown of the most reliable sources for earning 7th Legion Service Medals. Prioritising these activities will help you reach your goal of 200 medals as efficiently as possible.
Warfronts award the most medals out of any activity. However, they require a premade group of 10 to queue. As such, it can be fairly difficult to find a group. Check different Group Finder channels and thematic Discord servers for faster group recruitment.
It is best to do the Heroic version of a warfront, as you will be able to complete the Normal and Heroic quests at the same time. You can pick these quests up from Ralston Karn across from the Wind's Redemption:
/way #1161 65.9 26 – Ralston Karn
Completing both Darkshore quests will earn you a total of 30 Service Medals. Completing both Stromgarde quests will get you 65 Service Medals in total.
Every day, there will be five new world quests you can complete in either Darkshore or Arathi Highlands, depending on which your faction currently owns. There is always a world boss up as well, but you can only kill it for Medals once per warfront cycle (2 weeks).
To get to Darkshore or Arathi Highlands, there is always a portal to the zone your faction controls just across from Provisioner Stoutforge at the Boralus Harbor.
Faction Assaults occur when either the Horde or Alliance forces invade an area of the opposite faction in Kul Tiras or Zandalar. They happen roughly once a day and last for seven hours. You can check if they're up by looking at the front page of Wowhead under the BFA section.
When you get to the area, you'll automatically be given a quest where you have to complete four faction assault world quests in the area. These quests will have the Alliance symbol on their icons.
After completing four world quests, you will get to the final quest where you will be asked to do something unique for each zone. Once you've done the last step, you will receive 5 Service Medals.
The 7th Legion Supplies cache is awarded every 10,000 reputation after reaching Exalted with the 7th Legion. It always contains 20 Service Medals.
All the activities listed previously will also give you reputation with the 7th Legion. In addition, you can farm more reputation by completing 7th Legion world quests on Zandalar. These world quests reset daily.
The emissary system selects one faction that you can earn bonus reputation and rewards from each day. Each emissary lasts for three days. You can check which reputations have emissaries by opening your map in Kul Tiras or Zandalar and looking at the bottom left corner.
To complete the emissary, simply complete four associated faction world quests. Then head to Vindicator Jaelaana to the right of the Wind's Redemption:
/way #1161 68.9 24.7 – Vindicator Jaelaana
As of The War Within prepatch, Service Medals are transferrable between all characters on your account (same faction only). This makes farming on multiple Alliance alts the fastest way to reach 200 Medals.
Why alts matter for Azureshell Krolusk:
Recommended alt strategy:
Farming 200 7th Legion Service Medals requires consistent effort across multiple weeks and characters. The right addons can help you track your progress, optimise your daily routine, and ensure you never miss an opportunity to earn medals.
Pro tip: Use World Quest Tracker to filter only Warfront zone world quests. This saves time and ensures you never miss a daily medal opportunity.
