WoW Shadowlands Fallen Charger mount

Looking to add World of Warcraft’s elusive Fallen Charger to your WoW Shadowlands: Chains of Domination mount collection? Here’s how to tame the terrifying creature.

As the World of Warcraft universe continues to expand, so does its extensive collection of weird and wonderful mounts.

Among the newest creatures to enter the Shadowlands story are the dedicated Covenant mounts, most of which also have the benefit of being able to take to the dusky skies of the terrifying realm due to Patch 9.1 introducing flight.

There’s one mount that’s in everyone’s lips, though, and that’s the Fallen Charger. A powerful undead horse adorned in jagged golden armor, here’s everything you need to do to add it to your ever-growing animal army.

Introduced alongside the Chains of Domination update, the Fallen Charger is quite the noble steed.

How to get the Fallen Charger in WoW Shadowlands

In order to take the reigns of this fearsome beast you’ll need to defeat it first, and boy is he quite the kicker. Part of the overarching ‘Conquering Korthia‘ quest, it’s spawns every one to six hours after it’s been defeated.

Here’s everything you need to know about WoW Shadowlands’ Fallen Charger:

  1. Wait for the zone-wide emote that reads “An earsplitting whinny echoes across the Maw as the Fallen Charger begins its ride.”
  2. Go to your Covenant’s specific Covenant Assault area, as the Charger will spawn nearby.
    • Kyrian: near Zovaal’s Cauldron.
    • Necrolord: on the bridge to the Alter of Domination at Perdition Hold.
    • Night Fae: in the upper Crucible of the Damned.
    • Venthyr: in the Tremaculum.
  3. Camp the spawn area and ensure that you take down the Charger before it reaches Korthia’s borders.
    • If it reaches Korthia, this is displayed by the zone-wide announcement: “Fallen Charger releases a final mournful whinny as it fades away.”
  4. Collect the ‘Fallen Charger’s reigns,’ (random drop)
  5. Activate these to summon your very own Charger.

WoW fans are struggling to get the Charger

While all of this might seem pretty easy, in reality, this is a pretty difficult endeavor. Multiple players have asked Blizzard to make amendments to the Charger’s catch system, as often players will stop at nothing to get the best loot.

With threads dedicated to discussing decreasing the time between spawns, as well as asking for a decrease to its stamina, it seems like some future adjustments will need to be made.
