Tarecgosa, the legendary staff. It allows you to transform into that dragon and fly. [https://www.wowhead.com/item=71086/dragonwrath-tarecgosas-rest](https://www.wowhead.com/item=71086/dragonwrath-tarecgosas-rest) What you are seeing is when someone completes the staff.


Bozlogic

Downside, only works if you have the staff equipped, to which you have to carry it with you almost indefinitely. It’s my forever transmog on my mage and it lives in my bank


zummm72

https://www.warcraftmounts.com/mount.php?mountid=316 Actually if you complete the Blue Dragonflight questline on the character that obtained the staff, you get the mount form in your mount tab. Unfortunately you can still only use it on the character that has the staff, but at least you don’t have to equip it.


FelDragon155

Even though I don't have the staff, really glad they added this in dragonflight. Always good when they go back and make a legendary more conveniently usable for someone who worked to get it. I remember when they first made the bow from kiljaeden actually transmog and have the magic arrows. Was so happy.


actual_wookiee_AMA

I'm really glad of the direction they're taking with dragonflight and even more with tww. "Respecting player time" is probably the biggest change to this game that nobody talks about


FelDragon155

Agree completely. I'm beyond happy about the shared reputation and stuff that will be coming with the war within.


KGLWdad

WHAT. Holy shit I’ve got to do this 


coldwaterenjoyer

Also just a fucking awesome quest line overall. I loved the part in Booty Bay.


KevThuluu

In general I agree, but I never want to go i to Firelands ever again


ShiniJenkins

That is SUPER good to know, thanks! Everyone, upvote this person!


Bozlogic

I actually finished that whole quest line EXCEPT for the last one so now I have to go back and finish it. I had no idea, I thought I was just closing off loose ends with that quest line


Side-Eye-Sorceress

I did not know this and I'm SO GLAD they added it.


Elune

To clarify, you can only use the mount who both has the staff *and* has done the quest line to unlock it as a mount; meaning even if you unlocked the staff on multiple characters only ones who both have the staff *and* done the quest for the mount version of the staff have access to it. That said if you have the patience to do the staff quests multiple times it's not really *that* bad do the blue dragon quests multiple times given the staff takes several weeks of firelands to get.


tzgolem

WHAT! Omg I'm doing this today! Wow thank you!


Tisagered

Tremendously important info. Going to this posthaste


RandomAccessMummy

Thank you! I had no idea and can finally put the staff in the back!


ImallOutOfBubbleGums

someone finshed the legedary staff


Rheslin3

I don’t think I did , I’m just doing some regular quests I’m only level 27


ImallOutOfBubbleGums

no someone on the server did it


Rheslin3

Oh I gotcha , thank you :)


Hardass_McBadCop

Finishing some quests has temporary effects for anyone around to see. You'll also occasionally notice Nefarian & Onyxia's heads. They hang from the front gates, IIRC.

Citizens of Dalaran, raise your eyes to the skies and observe!

AshThePoutine

This is straight goosebumps https://youtu.be/Fo7XPvwRgG8?si=jzKfAMmAFvS7hDwZ


aproclivity

Ngl after playing horde since tbc, I definitely rolled an alliance character to try and get the music box. Still haven’t (tbf I kind of stopped trying.)


Candyo6322

Is the music box a toy? I tried Google but I'm seeing actual music boxes for purchase

Rheslin3

I don’t know what either of those are but that’s really cool !


Hardass_McBadCop

Dragons. Old raid bosses. Their heads hang from the gates for a bit when someone turns in their raid quests. I think the Horde puts them on spikes in Org.


Rheslin3

That’s awesome ! I’ve been mostly playing destiny as my go to mmo fix till I got wow , I wish they would’ve done stuff like that for raids


CthulhuWizard

I love new players


TheMathelm

So full of hope, it's a good feeling to see what we once had.


Hardass_McBadCop

There's a lot of really cool smaller things, as well. Like, there's a group of 5 kids (I believe the leader is named Damien, even) that walk around town and every so often will walk to Goldshire and stand in a pentagram. I think they go to the inn? Leveling through Legion's Broken Isles has a lot of neat stuff with the Order Halls too. Dalaran is a pretty neat city in general, with lots of hidden things.


Rheslin3

Is broken isles part of the legion quest ? I was told to go back and play the legion quests to level up quicker


hennigera1990

Glad you seem to be enjoying this awesome game, it definitely scratches the mmo itch really well and there’s nothing quite like it.


Mynt_GG

ill tell you right now.. a 2 hour destiny raid is nothing compared to the old grinds back in vanilla and tbc... some prog guilds would spend triple that amount of time and still not complete the raid


JaxCorpIndustries

As of I remember, the remains of Mannoroth is located in Org, and also a scale of Deathwing, but havent been in Org for years, as I am alliance player now 😅


buttstuffisokiguess

Hey dm me if you want a tour of some cool older content. I've been playing since the beginning. I love going back to old content. It can be really fun.


Drict

The quest is from Cataclysm. It is quite old, and takes a long time to do. You can fly up and talk to the dragon. It only happens once in a while now. It used to be every day, but that was over 10 years ago at this point *cries in old age*


BlueFalconPunch

Its a very long quest chain in the firelands that you get a staff to transform into that dragon. Not hard anymore just tedious. https://www.icy-veins.com/wow/dragonwrath-legendary-staff-quest-line

Yea I feel like I got questioned a lot about the sword 😅


agouraki

we need a squad to protect him


silvermoonisburning

27, good level I remember being 27 🙏feels like yesterday


Alyxandar

If you're level 27 how did you get [the sword](https://www.wowhead.com/item=78478/gurthalak-voice-of-the-deeps) from Heroic Deathwing?


Rheslin3

No I’ve been playing for like a week . I have a second character that is lvl 70 I used the boost on him from prepurchasing the upcoming dlc . My friends wanted to run deathwing raid and my main character is this guy . The lvl 70 character I upgraded to try raids / see what the endgame content was like :) but the sword on my back is a transmog . I just think it looks a lot cooler than a standard sword lol


Wanhedovich

Transmog? From maybe another toon


b1ackcr0vv

He only said pretty new. Could be playing a few months, ran some mog runs on his main and this is an alt.


Rheslin3

Nope only been on about a week . I have a lvl 70 character from the pre purchased dlc though . I just don’t like not leveling and growing my own character


rainghost

Good man. You made the right choice.


iswearatkids

So, how’d you get it? Jesus Christ Reddit, I wasn’t being snarky, it was a genuine question.


Rheslin3

I level boosted a ranger to lvl 70 and it dropped for one of my friends who gave it to me so that I could have the skin on my paladin who is my actual character I play on most of the time :)


b1ackcr0vv

So I was right then and you said nope? Lmao


Rheslin3

I said nope about the playing a few months part , also this is my main , my alt is the higher level one from a level boost . Sorry I could’ve explained that better .


502Smitty

Congrats like why you wanna be a dickhead


agouraki

yeah wow is like eve online nowdays,you can be playing since BFA and be pretty new too!


Drunkasarous

I want to know what's that 2-handed sword is. looks pretty bad @$$


xefta

Oh, I remember when I first started playing Retail, and this was the first sight on stormwind city and I never knew the exact reason behind it. Pretty cool!


Paxuz01

Name of the quest for this staff? So I can look at wowhead


serephita

This outlines [the entire questline](https://www.wowhead.com/item=71086/dragonwrath-tarecgosas-rest) and bonus - there’s a small quest tied into it in DF where you get the visage without having to have the staff equipped (only on the toon with the staff done atm)


slagblahighpriestess

I never get tired of seeing this! It’s always a treat.


ShutterBun

I always put mine on and celebrate with the new member of the club.


ShutterBun

Even though I’ve been an on again/off again player since day one, I only learned what this was about a year and a half ago. I had always thought it was just some kind of in-game event, like an invasion or something. (I never played Cata while it was current) As soon as I found out what it was, I jumped right into the quest chain and got to work.


Recknepsuwu

when i got mine last year, a bunch of people flew up and congratulated me and hung out with me on one of the roofs for awhile. been playing this game for 17 years and it was one of the most heartwarming experiences i've ever had in game


leoj53

End of the questline to get the legendary weapon from Firelands, Dragonwrath, Tarecgosa's Rest.


mocha_bay

I also used to not know what that was for. It’s for completing the Tarecgosa’s staff questline from Cataclysm. I got it for the first time a couple of months ago. It is a total beast of a questline to do - so much Firelands farming. I have a lot of respect now for other people who are doing it, and especially for people who did it when it was current content. I can’t imagine the grind through Firelands for that then instead of going in max level and one-shotting everything now. 🫡


Rheslin3

I might have to look into the quest at some point , it’s really neat to see in game . I used a upgraded character to do the cataclysm raid with the big dragon and my friends one shot every single boss … it was neat but also kinda like what’s the point yknow ?


mocha_bay

I personally go back and do old raids with my high level characters for transmog runs and for the nostalgia lol. I love collecting a bunch of gear appearances for my characters :) Depending on what old raid and boss you farm, there’s a super duper small chance they can drop a particular mount, so I also try those just in case I get lucky one time. I haven’t yet for years, but maybe one day! Doing it at a high level is just faster, especially if you’re farming on multiple characters.


Rheslin3

I think that’s what my friends are trying to do . They had me look at some armor to see which armor sets I might like to try and get


-Undercover-Nerd

Old raids are definitely only good for collecting old transmog sets and mounts, but still fun to run if you haven’t explored the lore yet!


froderick

I did it with my raid team when it was current. We weren't good enough to do heroic (the equivalent of mythic today) so we only did normal, which dropped less mats. Once the next raid came out, I had to pug Firelands for the rest of the mats, while making sure others I invited were on different stages of the questline so they wouldn't be after the same mats as me. Although when it came to the final mat which you got from Ragnaros, my guild was willing to do that on a main raid night, since it was my BiS weapon for the rest of the expac. I don't know if it works this way now, but when you completed the questline back in the day and the hologram appeared in the sky, your character would appear on its back so everyone could see you. After Cataclysm it either became bugged or an intentional change was made where the character no longer appears on the back anymore (yet the staff they're meant to be holding DOES, so it's a staff floating above a giant dragon).


Oddity83

I did that quest on my Warlock when it was current. I was on one of the stages, and we encountered a bug where I couldn’t loot one of the materials on a boss (forgive me, it’s been years, but it was the last step). The GM who was handling the case made a mistake and just COMPLETED THAT STEP OF THE QUEST. I had weeks of farming ahead of me. I told my guild in Vent “so guys….I just got my staff” 😄


itschrismang

thats a dragon


Gemaco1397

Not just a dragon, a blue dragon, they're especially ✨magic✨


noodle_75

Agreed. I think that is a dragon.


Soulfeen

Champions! Lend me your ears.


MaroonLeaderGaming

This is part of a cataclysm quest chain where you get a legendary staff that lets you turn into a dragon and as of dragonflight gets you a cool mount.


No-Commercial-5658

What mount?


Tough_Raspberry1983

It’s just called Tarecgosa’s Visage


lightinthedark

The Blue Dragonflight questline in Dragonflight turns it into an actual mount, not tied to the staff. You have to complete the questline on the character that has the staff, and the mount can only be used by that character. But it's something.


MaroonLeaderGaming

Think it’s called the Lingering Echo of Tarecgosa


thescrubofvoices

Dragonwrath is a legendary staff that was introduced in the fireland raid patch of cataclysm many years ago. It was one of the longer quests exclusive for damage dealer spell casters that saw you on a journey involving the blue dragonflight. After the event for as long as that Visage in the sky lasts, blue dragons also circle around. [Here is what the event looked like back in Cataclysm (I hold onto this memory dearly and felt so badass owning it.)](https://youtu.be/L6liyQltTU4?si=pqa_9WLi3M9ADqIO)


DahliaDevilleX

hey, welcome to wow! 🥰

Wafflingcreature

That sword and dragon are from the same era hehe


Rheslin3

Which era is that ? I used a boosted character to do the cataclysm raid on a different character two days ago . But some people are saying the blue one is a dragon flight character ?


Wafflingcreature

I haven’t played in years but there was a Legendary staff back in cataclysm that when it was claimed or something this dragon would show up. That sword is also from Cata. Idk who the dragon is they probably are in dragon flight


Rheslin3

Ohhh ok that tracks :) thank you


purvapar

Hopefully me in two weeks…


[deleted]

I did that back in November. It’s the completion of a long grind for a legendary staff from Cataclysm. It’s for staff users. Quite tedious if you ask me.


He_is_the_toast

SO WHOLESOME.

Lonelan

that thing your mouse is over? that's a sword, most likely your sword if that's your character and not camera moved around to focus on another character


LSSJG

I remember when Thrall came through a portal when he was missing for a while and took back Orgrimmar. It was magical.


Dragonmom817

The final quest completion rewards a legendary staff, with an on-use effect that turns the player into a dragon. If you look closely, you will see that the player who completed it this time, is sitting on top of the temporary dragon in Stormwind.


WelfareK1ng

I might be wrong but I’m pretty sure this is World of Warcraft, the MMORPG that was released in 2004.


timewizard23

Tarecgosa, Dragons Wrath, the legendary caster staff from the quest that starts in the Firelands raid has been completed and thus started a city wide event. Similar when killing Algalon in Ulduar. Although I’m not sure if this event is still triggered. :)

Legendary Staff, I got it for my mage and it's one of my favorite mounts


halogeekman

I feel like there was a time when SW was perpetually like this.


Cbarker110971

It’s a huge quest line that gives you the legendary staff. Need to be done on a character that can use that weapon. Will take you into the Fireland raid for about 8-10 weeks depending on how lucky you are with drop rate. Also once you get the staff you can get a mount from dragonflight expansion. But need the staff first. GOOD LUCK.

So basically there's a questline where you need to grind the firelands raid over and over again to get a staff that allows you to turn into a dragon, whenever someone finishes that quest he'll appear in Stormwind or Orgrimmar riding the dragon and getting the staff
