Wondering how to get the Vicious Saddle in World of Warcraft and show off your WoW PvP prowess? Here’s everything you need to know, as well as which saddle is either Alliance or Horde.

While exploring the spectacular vistas of World of Warcraft’s Azeroth can be a lot of fun in itself, some players are more interested in taking their experience to the next level.

Competitive WoW doesn’t get much attention in the esports world, but the PvP sector is very much alive and kicking within the bowels of the game itself, especially because there’s a plethora of rewards just waiting for those who obtain PvP glory.

One of these is the Vicious Saddle. We’re going to run over how to get it in WoW, as well as which saddles are faction-specific.

How to get the Vicious Saddle in WoW

In order to get the Vicious Saddle in WoW, you’ll need to be ready for a PvP grind like no other. First of all, you’ll have to have obtained the seasonal mount, as well as reached Combatant level 1000+.

From here, you’ll have to:

  1. Fill the rated PvP bar to 100% – this drops your saddle (progress does not carry over to the next season, so make sure you get this filled up in time)
  2. Visit your faction’s Combatant Mount Quartermaster
    • Alliance: Necrolore Sipe in Stormwind City’s Old Town
    • Horde: Deathguard Netharian in Orgrimmar’s Valley of Strength
  3. Choose your mount!

You can also earn the Vicious War Wolf Mount and Vicious War Steed Mount by obtaining the Veteran of the Horde and Veteran of the Alliance achievements respectively. These both require you to win 75 rated battlegrounds.
