The Bonesewn Fleshroc is a grotesque, towering deathroc whose patchwork hide and skeletal frame embody the macabre genius of the Abominable Stitching profession. Its massive wings, stitched-together flesh, and the unsettling aura of undeath that surrounds it make it a favourite among collectors who appreciate mounts with a dark, monstrous aesthetic. The flavour text speaks to the mastery required to create it: "Only expert flesh-stitchers who have demonstrated mastery over the magics of Maldraxxus are powerful enough to construct a deathroc of this size." For collectors who value prestige and the satisfaction of a long-term crafting project, this mount is a true trophy — a symbol of your dedication to the Necrolord Covenant and the dark arts of the Stitchyard.
Introduced in patch 9.0.1 as part of the Shadowlands expansion, the Bonesewn Fleshroc is the ultimate reward for Necrolord Covenant members who have fully mastered the Abominable Stitching profession. Unlike many mounts that drop from bosses or can be purchased outright, this deathroc must be crafted — and crafting it requires a significant investment of time, resources, and Covenant progression. The journey involves upgrading your Abominable Stitchyard to its maximum rank, farming three different currencies, and carefully managing your construct companions. For players who enjoy long-term projects and the satisfaction of creating something truly unique, the Bonesewn Fleshroc is one of the most prestigious and rewarding mounts in the Shadowlands.
The Bonesewn Fleshroc is crafted at the Abominable Stitching Table once you have gathered the required materials: 50 Malleable Flesh, 5 Superior Parts, and 3,500 Reservoir Anima. To craft this mount, you must also have a max rank (Rank 5) Abominable Stitchyard.
Important: This mount can only be crafted by a member of the Necrolord Covenant. However, once crafted, it can be ridden by anyone on your account.
If you are not already a member of the Necrolord Covenant, you must first join them. This becomes available after you complete the main Shadowlands campaign and finish the quest Choosing Your Purpose in Oribos, where you pledge your allegiance to a covenant. The Necrolord Covenant is essential for this mount, as the Abominable Stitchyard is exclusive to its members.
You must complete the quest Welcome To Our House and the basic tasks that unlock the sanctum Seat of the Primus.
The Abominable Stitchyard is a unique Necrolord Covenant feature that allows you to stitch together construct companions from the souls you rescue in the Shadowlands. To unlock it, head inside the Seat of the Primus and speak to Arkadia Moa in the main hall on the left side, near the Renown Quartermaster. She handles all Sanctum Upgrades.
To craft the Bonesewn Fleshroc, you must upgrade your Abominable Stitchyard to Rank 5. The total cost for all upgrades is 44,000 Reservoir Anima and 150 Redeemed Souls, and it will take approximately 85 hours of research time in total. This is a significant investment, so plan accordingly.

Redeemed Souls are a time-gated currency used for Covenant Sanctum upgrades. They are primarily earned through the weekly quest Return Lost Souls, which you can pick up from Osbourne Black, the Soul Warden, in the main hall on the right side of the Seat of the Primus.
To complete the quest, you must head to the Maw via the pillar at the top of Oribos. Once there, look for Imprisoned, Caged, Wailing, or Aimless Soul mobs and rescue 20 of them. After turning in the quest, you can immediately pick it up again for another 20 souls. This makes Redeemed Souls infinitely farmable, though the process is repetitive.
Anima is the lifeblood of the Shadowlands, and it flows from nearly every activity you can imagine. Whether you're questing, raiding, or simply exploring, you'll constantly accumulate this currency. For the 44,000 Anima needed to fully upgrade your Abominable Stitchyard, you'll want to focus on the most efficient sources to avoid an endless grind.
The fastest way to get a large chunk of Anima is by defeating all three Shadowlands world bosses, provided you've unlocked Korthia and Zereth Mortis:
Completing all three will net you a total of 1,500 Anima. However, there's a catch: you only receive the Anima from the associated world quest. If the world quest isn't active, killing the boss will not reward you with any Anima.
Raids are another excellent source of Anima. Bosses have a very high chance to drop it, and you can expect at least 500 Anima per raid — often more. As a bonus, you'll also have chances at rare raid mounts while you're at it.
If you're looking for something more frequent to grind, farming rares in Zereth Mortis is highly recommended. They have a very high chance to drop Anima in generous amounts. Treasures are also decent, and Korthia as a whole is another great place to farm — from its rares, dailies, and treasures. Finally, you can always fly around completing Anima world quests on your map. Shadowlands world quests change daily, so there will regularly be new ones available.
Now that we've covered how to max out your Abominable Stitchyard, let's move on to crafting your Bonesewn Fleshroc. You may want to start this process before you have max Stitchyard, because Superior Parts are a bit harder to get.
Superior Parts are the most difficult material to obtain for this mount. They are primarily locked behind weekly quests given by your construct companions at the Stitchyard. The more constructs you create, the more weekly quests you'll have access to, which in turn increases your Superior Parts income. Because of this, it's highly recommended to work on creating other constructs before focusing on the Bonesewn Fleshroc.
The only other way to obtain Superior Parts is through missions at your Covenant adventure table. This table requires 500 Reservoir Anima and 1 Redeemed Soul to unlock, and can be purchased from Arkadia Moa. You will also need to progress through the "adventure campaign" missions until you reach level 8 to see Superior Parts missions appear.
Malleable Flesh is the easiest of the three materials to obtain. It has a chance to drop from most mobs throughout the Shadowlands, so you'll naturally accumulate it as you play. You can also receive Flesh from Salvaged Supplies boxes, which are rewards from the weekly quests given by your construct companions.
That said, if you want to farm it efficiently rather than passively, the best method is to repeatedly clear the trash in the Halls of Atonement dungeon on Normal difficulty. This dungeon is located in the eastern section of Revendreth.
Your route should be as follows: clear all the trash leading up to Halkias, defeat Halkias himself, and then clear the trash in the area immediately after him. Do not kill Echelon or push further into the dungeon — the mobs beyond that point are much less efficient for farming.

Once you've cleared the mobs in the designated area, simply leave the instance and reset it by right-clicking your portrait and selecting "Reset all instances" under Instance Options. Then re-enter and repeat the process until you've collected all 50 Malleable Flesh. It's repetitive, but it's the fastest way to get exactly what you need.
Once you have collected 50 Malleable Flesh, 5 Superior Parts, and 3,500 Reservoir Anima — and your Abominable Stitchyard is at Rank 5 — head to the Abominable Stitching Table to the east of the Seat of the Primus.
Interact with the Table and search for "Bonesewn Fleshroc." Once you've found it, click "Create" in the bottom right of the window to craft your new mount. Congratulations!
Crafting the Bonesewn Fleshroc requires managing multiple currencies, weekly quests, and Covenant progression. The right addons can help you stay organised.
Pro tip: Use SavedInstances to track which of your alts have completed their weekly construct quests. This ensures you don't miss any Superior Parts opportunities.
