The Hivemind
A true union of minds.
Acquisition Guide
The Hivemind is a secret Battle for Azeroth mount obtained by solving a multi-step puzzle alongside 4 other players, each using a different monocle — a challenge that was first completed by the WoW Secret Finding Community on December 16th, 2018.
Gather Four Other Players
This mount requires a group of 5 players in total to complete the Hivemind ritual. Each player in the group must use a different monocle as part of the puzzle.
Complete the Hivemind Ritual
Work through the multi-step puzzle with your group of 5, ensuring each player has their assigned monocle, until all steps of the ritual are completed and the mount is awarded.
Enjoy the Mount's Mechanics
Once obtained, The Hivemind transforms you into the mount itself — similar to 
Vial of the Sands and 
Heart of the Nightwing — and can carry only the players who were grouped with you when you last completed the ritual, with each additional passenger adding a 10% movement-speed increase.
