Retrained Skyrazor Mount Guide
The Retrained Skyrazor is a brand-new mount introduced during the Midnight Pre-Patch and tied directly to the large-scale world event Twilight Ascension. This mount represents a retrained version of the Twilight drakes, now repurposed as a reward for players actively participating in the pre-expansion conflict.
What makes Retrained Skyrazor particularly appealing to collectors is its limited-time availability. This mount can only be obtained during the Twilight Ascension pre-patch window. Once Midnight officially launches, the event ends, the currency becomes unavailable, and the mount is expected to be removed from vendors entirely, making it a true legacy collectible.
- Added in patch: 11.0.0 "The War Within"
- Type: Flying
- Source: Event vendor purchase
- Availability: Limited-time (January 27th – March 2nd)
How to get Retrained Skyrazor
The Retrained Skyrazor mount can be purchased from the event vendor Materialist Ophinell for 100 Twilight's Blade Insignia. This currency is earned exclusively through participation in the Twilight Ascension pre-patch event.
Starting the Midnight Pre-Patch Event
To gain access to the Twilight Ascension event, players must complete the introductory questline starting with The Cult Within (Alliance) or The Cult Within (Horde).
Completing this storyline unlocks the core pre-patch content and rewards:
- Twilight Ascension World Quests in Twilight Highlands
- Twilight’s Blade Rare events
- Weekly quests tied to the event
- Twilight’s Blade Insignia currency
You will also receive the Twilight’s Blade Tabard and the title Definitely Not a Cultist, which permanently unlock event participation for your Warband.
Earning Twilight's Blade Insignias
Once the event is unlocked, Twilight's Blade Insignias are earned by completing activities in the Twilight Highlands. These activities are designed to be repeatable and scalable across your Warband.
- Twilight Highlands World Quests: 10 Twilight's Blade Insignia per quest
- Rare Elite Events: 2–3 Twilight's Blade Insignia per Rare
- Weekly Quests: 40 Twilight's Blade Insignia per quest Disrupt the Call and Twilight's Dawn (once per week per Warband)
Both World Quests and active Rare ritual events are clearly displayed on the map, allowing you to plan efficient farming routes.
Twilight's Blade Rares
Rare enemies during Twilight Ascension spawn in a strict rotation across the Twilight Highlands. Every five minutes, a zone-wide alert announces the beginning of a ritual:
“The Twilight’s Blade have begun summoning more forces. Defeat their ritual leaders!”
Each Rare encounter consists of three stages:
- Stop the Ritual: Eliminate Twilight’s Blade forces.
- Slay the Ritualists: Kill the three casters maintaining the shield.
- Twilight’s Champion: The Rare becomes vulnerable and can be defeated.
These Rares also contribute toward the achievement Two Minutes to Midnight, which rewards the Light-Forged Mechsuit mount.
Event Vendors
Two vendors are available during the Twilight Ascension event:
- Armorer Kalinovan: Sells Item Level 121 catch-up gear for alts.
- Materialist Ophinell: Sells all cosmetic and mount rewards.
Both vendors are located at the elven resistance camp in the southern Twilight Highlands.

Once you collect 100 Twilight's Blade Insignia, you can immediately purchase the Retrained Skyrazor mount from Materialist Ophinell and add it to your collection.
