Valiance

Most undead steeds have their riders chosen for them. Valiance, on the other hand, chooses its own rider.

Acquisition Guide

Valiance is a mount obtained by feeding Rotten Delicious to the horse stabled in Instructor Razuvious's room in Naxxramas, then completing a specific interaction with a Mind-Controlled Death Knight Understudy.

1

Unlock Naxxramas Secrets

Complete the steps to unlock the secrets of Naxxramas and gain access to Zackett Skullsmash and their wares using Death's Bargaining Chips.

2

Enter 10-Man Naxxramas

Enter Naxxramas on 10-Man difficulty. Instructor Razuvious must remain alive throughout this process — do not kill him yet. If you have already killed Razuvious on your main, swap to an alt to complete this step.

3

Purchase Rotten Delicious

Purchase a Rotten Delicious from Zackett Skullsmash for 30 Death's Bargaining Chips.

4

Feed Valiance the Apple

Approach Valiance, who is stabled in Instructor Razuvious's room, and give him the Rotten Delicious. Note that approaching the room will trigger a knockback from Instructor Razuvious.

5

Mind-Control a Death Knight Understudy

Go to the Instructor Razuvious battle arena and mind-control one of the Death Knight Understudy adds by clicking one of the two pillar devices next to the boss.

6

Bring Understudy to Valiance

Bring the Mind-Controlled Death Knight Understudy to Valiance to complete the interaction and receive the mount.

Tips

  • The Rotten Delicious feeding and the Naxxramas secrets progress are both account-wide, so if you feed Valiance on one character or difficulty you do not need to repeat that step on another character.

  • If you accidentally feed Valiance on 25-Man instead of 10-Man, you can switch to another character and complete the 10-Man version without purchasing a second Rotten Delicious.

  • If the Lightning Shield causes Razuvious to self-destruct, switch to another character — the Rotten Delicious application carries over and you do not need to farm another 30 Death's Bargaining Chips.

  • When running with another player, the mount drops for the player who fed Valiance the Rotten Delicious, not both players.
