Harandar has its own idea of what a riding cat should look like. The Ivory Grimlynx carries that setting into the mount collection: pale, unmistakably feline, and closely associated with the Haranir rather than the stables of either capital city.

Its acquisition follows the same idea. This is a story reward attached to unlocking the Haranir allied race. The important finish line is a particular achievement and the final handoff after the Harandar campaign, not a reputation vendor or a rare spawn somewhere in the forest.

Quick Answer

Earn Allied Race: Haranir to unlock Ivory Grimlynx. Follow the Harandar campaign through Of Caves and Cradles, Call of the Goddess, and Emergence, then complete The War Beyond the Roots, the closing quest that sends you to Lor’themar Theron in the Sanctum of Light, Silvermoon City.

The final quest is 95324, and the mount reward item is 246736. The achievement is 61506. This is an obtainable Midnight campaign reward, available through progression rather than a random drop or a currency purchase. You do not have to level a newly created Haranir to earn it.

Mount Overview

The Ivory Grimlynx belongs to Midnight’s Harandar collection and uses the grimlynx family. Its pale coloration is the obvious distinction from darker examples of the same broader cat theme. For a collector who builds sets around zones or playable peoples, the connection to the Haranir is a large part of the appeal.

It is a ground mount. The reason to collect it is the appearance and the allied-race connection, not a special flight mode, a merchant passenger, or an additional travel service.

The source is also worth separating from the mount’s name. “Ivory” is not an instruction to seek a special rare version of a wild grimlynx. The named mount is awarded by a specific achievement. Other grimlynx colors have their own sources and are not interchangeable rewards for finishing this campaign.

The Acquisition Route, from Campaign to Reward

Follow the Harandar campaign in order

Begin with the Harandar branch of Midnight’s campaign and follow the main story markers. The three relevant chapter names are Of Caves and Cradles, Call of the Goddess, and Emergence. The later chapter follows the earlier storylines; you cannot skip straight to its closing reward by visiting the final NPC on an untouched character.

Campaign progress is the useful thing to track here. Doing unrelated Harandar side quests may add other rewards and achievements, but it does not replace a missing main story step. If the chapter tracker is still directing you to a campaign quest, continue that quest before searching for a mount vendor.

Finish Emergence and look for the final follow-up

Emergence is the concluding Harandar storyline relevant to the allied-race unlock. After the zone’s story has brought you back toward Silvermoon, pay attention to Elder Hagar and the follow-up The War Beyond the Roots.

Elder Hagar is associated with the Harandar portal area in Silvermoon. The final quest is easy to overlook if you immediately start the next campaign branch or leave the city after the Harandar story. Completing the zone’s dramatic ending and completing the actual unlock handoff are not necessarily the same click.

Deliver the message to Lor’themar Theron

The objective of The War Beyond the Roots is to bring word to Lor’themar in the Sanctum of Light. Follow that quest’s objective marker in Silvermoon and complete the conversation and turn-in.

This is the specific closing action to check if you have finished the Harandar chapters but still do not see the mount. The current achievement condition points to quest 95324. Merely visiting Lor’themar without having reached the relevant story stage is not a shortcut around the campaign.

Verify the achievement and learn the mount

Look for Allied Race: Haranir in your achievements and Ivory Grimlynx in the Mount Journal. If the reward item is in your bags, use it to learn the mount. A bag item that has not been learned is not yet a selectable ride in the journal.

There is no separate purchase price to pay after earning this achievement. The achievement grants the allied-race unlock and its associated mount reward; it is not a discount token that sends you to another merchant.

Where You Need to Go

The main acquisition work takes place in Harandar, following its campaign. The final handoff takes place in Silvermoon City, with Elder Hagar’s follow-up near the Harandar portal leading to Lor’themar in the Sanctum of Light.

• Expansion: Midnight.
• Campaign zone: Harandar.
• Relevant chapters: Of Caves and Cradles, Call of the Goddess, Emergence.
• Final quest: The War Beyond the Roots.
• Turn-in destination: Lor’themar Theron, Sanctum of Light, Silvermoon City.

These are story locations rather than a farming circuit. There is no advantage in searching every grimlynx spawn point, and no dungeon entrance needs to be reset for another attempt.

Requirements and Common Mix-ups

You need access to Midnight and the relevant campaign progression. The mount’s source is the Haranir unlock achievement, so the requirements belong to that story route.

You do not need to create a Haranir first. That would reverse the order: the campaign unlocks the allied race, and the mount is associated with earning that unlock. A character already progressing through Midnight can pursue the story reward.

You also do not need to complete the separate heritage armor leveling project before claiming the mount. Heritage armor and the racial mount are different collection rewards with different conditions. Instructions that send you to level a fresh Haranir before the Ivory Grimlynx can appear are mixing those rewards together.

There is no stand-alone Exalted reputation payment, no grimlynx saddle recipe, and no rare-drop percentage involved in this acquisition. Harandar has other progression systems, but you should not spend their currencies expecting them to complete Allied Race: Haranir.

If the Final Quest or Mount Is Missing

Check the campaign chapters first. A partly completed Harandar story is not enough. Identify the chapter that remains unfinished and follow its next main quest instead of jumping between unrelated NPCs.

Check the specific final quest next. A quick way to see whether quest 95324 has been completed is the in-game command /run print(C_QuestLog.IsQuestFlaggedCompleted(95324)). A true result confirms that quest’s completion flag; a false result tells you to investigate the remaining story or handoff.

Consider story phasing if an NPC disappears. Players have reported Elder Hagar or Lor’themar being temporarily unavailable while adjacent Silvermoon campaign quests change the city’s story state. Follow the active campaign objectives and return to the handoff afterward. Do not abandon an entire chapter or start leveling a second character as your first response.

Distinguish the reward from the journal display. Check your bags for an unlearned mount item and review any collection filters that hide usable mounts. A display or filter issue calls for a different check than an unfinished achievement.

A persistent problem after the final quest and achievement are both complete is a reward-delivery issue, not evidence of an undiscovered vendor. Keep the relevant quest and achievement names available if you need to describe that problem to support.

The Most Efficient Way to Collect It

Use the character already farthest through the Harandar campaign. For this reward, continuing an existing story is usually a more sensible use of time than opening a fresh campaign on an alt and repeating the same introductions.

Keep the chapter tracker visible and finish the closing handoff before switching activities. That simple habit prevents the common situation where a player remembers seeing the ending but never returns the final quest.

There is no reason to estimate a number of farming resets. Your remaining work depends on where you are in the story and how much dialogue or questing you want to take at your own pace. A guide promising the same completion time to a brand-new campaign character and someone standing at the final turn-in is not describing a useful comparison.

If you also want other Harandar mounts, record them as separate goals. You can combine travel while doing their activities later, but a nearby vendor or rare does not become part of the Ivory Grimlynx chain merely because it shares the zone.

Is Ivory Grimlynx Still Obtainable?

Yes. It is a Midnight campaign and allied-race achievement reward. Its acquisition is not presented as a particular PvP season, a monthly Trading Post selection, or a limited promotional code.

The fact that a reward is associated with a new playable race does not make it a launch-week-only item. The relevant question is whether your character has completed the required campaign and final quest, not whether you played during Midnight’s opening days.

Is It Worth the Story Progression?

If you already want to unlock the Haranir, the mount is an especially natural collection goal: both rewards arise from the same progression. You do not need to add a separate currency grind after finishing the story.

For a player interested only in mounts, the appeal depends on how much you enjoy the pale grimlynx appearance and Harandar’s setting. It is an attractive addition to a zone-themed collection, but it does require following a campaign rather than making an immediate shopping trip.

The collector verdict is straightforward: prioritize it while you are already working through Harandar. If you stopped just before the final handoff, finishing that quest is a much better first move than beginning a different mount farm.

Expansion Context

The most satisfying racial mounts often connect a playable people to their home. Ivory Grimlynx does that through Harandar and its campaign, giving the mount a clear place in the collection beyond its color.

It is also a useful reminder to distinguish current allied-race unlocks from old reputation-heavy instructions for unrelated races. The condition to follow is the Haranir achievement’s actual campaign requirement. Importing another race’s historical Exalted grind only adds work that this reward does not ask you to do.

Similar Mounts

• Fierce Grimlynx: another Harandar cat to consider if you want a different grimlynx color and are pursuing the zone’s other rewards.
• Rootstalker Grimlynx: a related appearance for collectors building a broader Harandar cat collection; it has a separate source.
• Slatestone Ramolith: a different allied-race-associated mount for someone who likes collecting racial unlock rewards.
• Lightforged Felcrusher: another strong racial mount theme, suited to collectors who value the connection between a mount and its people.

Final Thoughts

Finish Harandar’s three campaign chapters and complete The War Beyond the Roots in Silvermoon. With that final handoff checked, Ivory Grimlynx becomes a clear story reward rather than a vague promise of something hidden among the zone’s other mount sources.
