The Ivory Savagemane is one of the most striking Timewalking mounts for collectors who enjoy primal Zandalar-inspired beasts with a cleaner and more imposing silhouette. Unlike darker sabers or heavily armored war mounts, this pale ravasaur stands out through its raw, untamed look. Its light coloration gives it a rarer and more unusual appearance than most dinosaur-style mounts, making it especially appealing for players who want something savage, but not overly cluttered with armor or effects.
What makes the Ivory Savagemane especially appealing is how simple its acquisition path is in theory. There is no random boss drop involved, no weekly legacy lockout to repeat, and no hidden unlock chain to work through. Once you gather enough Timewarped Badges, the mount is guaranteed. The only real catch is that it can only be purchased during Battle for Azeroth Timewalking, so timing matters just as much as the currency itself.
The Ivory Savagemane can be purchased from Churbro during Battle for Azeroth Timewalking for 5000 Timewarped Badges. The vendor appears in Boralus for Alliance players and in Dazar'alor for Horde, which means the purchase depends both on the event being active and on getting to the proper BFA capital during that week.
That makes this mount a grind of structure rather than luck. You are not hoping that a dungeon boss finally drops the item after dozens of attempts. Instead, you are turning the event week into a fixed currency route and converting that progress into a guaranteed reward. For players who prefer certainty over RNG farming, this makes the Ivory Savagemane one of the cleaner Timewalking purchases to work toward.
The Timewalking hub for Battle for Azeroth is found in your faction’s main expansion capital. Churbro, the Battle for Azeroth Timewalking vendor and event NPC, is located in Boralus for Alliance and in Dazar'alor for Horde.
The fastest way to reach these hubs is to use the appropriate BFA portal from your faction capital. Once you arrive, head directly to Churbro using the coordinates below. Since Battle for Azeroth Timewalking is still relatively new compared to older rotations, many players do not know the vendor’s exact location on the first visit, so using waypoints saves time immediately.

For the Ivory Savagemane, Timewarped Badges are the full barrier between you and the mount. The total cost is 5000, which is large enough that the difference between organized farming and casual queueing becomes obvious very quickly. If you already have a badge reserve from older Timewalking events, this can be a fast pickup. If not, then the goal is to squeeze as much value as possible out of the active week.
The core of the grind is the Battle for Azeroth Timewalking dungeon queue. These dungeons stay available for the entire event and can be repeated as much as you want, which makes them the most stable badge source once your account-wide and weekly spikes are already claimed. In practical terms, repeated dungeon clears are what carry the largest part of the farm.
The current Battle for Azeroth Timewalking dungeon pool includes the following instances, with the usual amount of Timewarped Badges you can expect from each clear:
The first Timewalking dungeon you complete during the active week also drops Remnant of Azeroth or Remnant of Azeroth, with Alliance and Horde versions of the same quest item. You turn it in to Churbro for a large badge reward. The first account-wide completion gives 500 Timewarped Badges, while later first-dungeon completions on additional characters give 200.
That opening reward is one of the most important accelerators in the whole event. If your goal is to buy the Ivory Savagemane during the current BFA rotation, securing that first large turn-in early takes a lot of pressure off the rest of the grind.
There is also a broader Timewalking principle worth keeping in mind: some Timewalking rotations include raid quests that pay much more than a single dungeon run. Across the full system, the most recognizable examples are:
Each of these comes with a major completion quest such as Disturbance Detected: Firelands, and the first clear awards a large badge payout. Even though those raids belong to other Timewalking rotations, they are still useful for long-term planning because many players build a badge reserve over several events and then spend it when their target mount becomes available.
In most cases, these raid quests care only about killing the final boss rather than doing a full traditional clear. Because of that, many players search Group Finder for skip runs, partial clears, or end-boss groups instead of committing to the whole raid route every time.
A completed Timewalking raid also gives a special reward item that can be turned in for 500 Timewarped Badges after the final boss dies. To qualify for that item, your character must be at least level 30.
After the first raid turn-in during the active event, later turn-ins on the same cycle award only 300 Timewarped Badges for subsequent completions on other characters. That drop in value is exactly why the first raid completion should always be treated as the priority whenever raid-based Timewalking rewards are available.
These caches can also include extra expansion-themed rewards. During Wrath of the Lich King Timewalking, for example, players can receive Invincible as a bonus reward from the associated cache. So even if your current focus is only the Ivory Savagemane, broad Timewalking participation can still pay off over time.
If the Ivory Savagemane is your main goal, the best route is to secure every high-value one-time reward first and only then settle into repeated dungeon farming.
Players who already maintain a healthy badge reserve from earlier Timewalking cycles may be able to buy this mount almost immediately once Battle for Azeroth Timewalking begins. Players starting with very little currency, however, will feel the grind much more clearly, so efficient routing matters right from the first run.
It is also important to remember that badges alone are not enough. You still need to visit Churbro while Battle for Azeroth Timewalking is active. If you miss that event window, you will need to wait for the next BFA rotation before you can buy the mount.
Because the Ivory Savagemane is purchased directly from a vendor instead of being tied to RNG, this grind is much more predictable than a traditional mount farm. That removes the frustration of bad luck, but it also means poor planning immediately shows up as lost time.
Another practical detail is that Churbro sells more than one collector-focused Battle for Azeroth reward. If you already know that you want more than just this mount, it often makes more sense to plan for a larger badge target from the beginning rather than farming only enough for one purchase.
Since this mount is tied to repeated dungeon clears, route efficiency, and account-wide reward tracking, a few lightweight addons can make the entire process much easier to manage.
For players spreading the grind across several characters, SavedInstances is especially useful because it lets you quickly see which alts have already claimed their key event rewards and which ones can still provide extra badge progress.
