The Gold-Toed Albatross is an unusual flying mount introduced in Dragonflight, inspired by the strange and whimsical creatures found across fractured timelines. With its oversized wings, bright plumage, and distinctive golden talons, this mount stands out as one of the more eccentric rewards tied to Dragonflight’s time-based content.
Gold-Toed Albatross is obtained through the Time Rift system, making it part of a broader collection of mounts and cosmetics linked to this recurring world event. Rather than relying on a single boss or activity, the mount can be earned through multiple Time Rift reward paths, favoring players who consistently participate and optimize their currency gains over time.
The Gold-Toed Albatross mount can be purchased from Sorotis in Tyrhold Reservoir, Thaldraszus for 3000 Paracausal Flakes. Alternatively, it can drop from any Time Rift end boss or from the Box of Collapsed Reality.
Sorotis is located in the Tyrhold Reservoir, just east of Valdrakken, in Thaldraszus. She is sitting down, slightly away from the other vendors in the area.
