Astral Cloud Serpent
It is believed that Astral Cloud Serpents possess answers to some of life's greatest mysteries. Pity they can't talk.
Acquisition Guide
The Astral Cloud Serpent is a mount that drops from Cache of Pure Energy after defeating Elegon in Mogu'shan Vaults.
Enter Mogu'shan Vaults
Travel to Mogu'shan Vaults and defeat Elegon. The mount can drop on both 10-man and 25-man difficulty, in both Normal and Heroic modes.
Loot Cache of Pure Energy
After defeating Elegon, loot the Cache of Pure Energy. The Astral Cloud Serpent has a very low drop rate, and the mount does not drop in LFR difficulty.
Note the Extra Roll
Elder Charms of Good Fortune cannot be used to obtain this mount — there is no chance of receiving it through an extra roll.
Cloud Serpent Riding Skill
You can loot the Astral Cloud Serpent even without the Cloud Serpent Riding skill, but you will not be able to mount it until you obtain that skill.
