Springfur Alpaca Mount Guide

The Springfur Alpaca is a delightful and charming ground mount that brings a touch of pastoral peace to the often chaotic world of Azeroth. With its fluffy, pastel-colored fleece and gentle demeanor, this alpaca stands out as one of the most "wholesome" mounts to obtain, earned not through combat, but through consistent care and friendship. Its acquisition is a unique, daily ritual in the deserts of Uldum, offering a refreshing break from typical grind-heavy mount hunts.

What makes the Springfur Alpaca particularly interesting is its non-linear, patience-based farm. You must befriend a rare, wandering Friendly Alpaca by feeding it special greens over the course of seven days (not necessarily consecutive). This creates a predictable, low-stress farming schedule where the main challenge is locating your fuzzy friend each day rather than battling RNG drop rates.

How to Get Springfur Alpaca

To earn the Springfur Alpaca, you must complete the daily quest "Alpaca It Up" from the Friendly Alpaca a total of seven times. The quest requires you to feed the alpaca one Gersahl Greens. The days do not need to be consecutive; progress is permanently tracked per character.

The process breaks down into three daily steps: find the rare-spawning Friendly Alpaca in Uldum, have a Gersahl Greens in your inventory, and complete the simple feeding quest. While straightforward, the variability of the alpaca's spawn location is the primary hurdle to a consistent routine.

Finding the Friendly Alpaca

The Friendly Alpaca is a rare NPC that spawns in the BFA version of Uldum. You must be at least level 50 to see and interact with it.

• Spawn Behavior: It has multiple possible spawn points across the zone (see map below). Once spawned, it remains for approximately 10 minutes before despawning.
• Phasing: Ensure Uldum is in its BFA assault state. If the zone is in its classic state, you will not find the alpaca. Check the map for assault icons or rare NPCs to confirm.
• Shared Spawn: The alpaca is tapped to the first player who feeds it, but multiple players can complete the quest on the same spawn.

Gathering Gersahl Greens

You cannot feed the alpaca without Gersahl Greens. This is a gathering node found exclusively along the central riverbed that runs through Uldum.

• Location: Follow the main river from the northwestern entrance down to the delta in the southeast. The herbs spawn on the riverbanks and dry sections.
• Gathering: Herbalism is NOT required. Any player can click and harvest the node. However, herbalists will see the nodes on their mini-map and have a chance to gather extra greens per pick.
• Pro-Tip: Gather 7 Gersahl Greens in one session on your first day. This secures all the items you'll need for the entire week-long quest chain, eliminating daily gathering time.

Completing the Daily Quest

1. Locate the Friendly Alpaca at one of its spawn points.
2. Right-click it to accept the daily quest "Alpaca It Up".
3. With Gersahl Greens in your bags, simply click the quest completion button or use the item on the alpaca.
4. Turn in the quest. The alpaca will thank you and your progress will be saved.
5. After the 7th turn-in, you will automatically receive the Reins of the Springfur Alpaca directly in your inventory.

Essential Addons for Farming

These tools are invaluable for reducing the time spent searching each day:

• SilverDragon or RareScanner: The most critical addon. It will alert you with a sound and on-screen notification when the Friendly Alpaca is nearby, even if you're not actively looking at its spawn point.
• HandyNotes with "Visions of N'Zoth" data: Many community modules will place icons on your map and mini-map for all rare spawn locations, including the alpaca's possible points, creating an efficient flight route.
• GatherMate2 with Uldum data: If you're gathering the greens yourself, this will show all possible Gersahl Greens node locations along the river, making your initial collection of 7 greens very fast.

These addons transform the daily search from a chore into a quick, automated check, providing the efficiency and awareness needed for a stress-free farm.
