Players searching for Vivid Chloroceros usually want to know three things: where it comes from, what you must do to buy it, and whether the grind is worth your time. This guide gives exact steps, practical farming advice, and a collector-focused evaluation so you can decide whether to chase this Midnight-era mount.

Quick Answer

What it is: A ground chloroceros mount introduced in the Midnight expansion that sports bright, plant-like foliage across its back and antlers.

How to get it: Purchase from Mothkeeper Wew’tam in The Den, Harandar for 10 Luminous Dust after you have captured at least 50 Glowing Moths. The mount is taught by an item that becomes usable when picked up and is account-wide once learned.

Why players want it: It is visually distinct from common ground mounts, easy to obtain relative to raid drops, and sits behind a compact, single-zone activity rather than a sprawling long-term grind.

Mount Overview

The mount blends a forest/bioluminescent theme with the classic chloroceros body type. It is a ground mount intended for Harandar’s aesthetic, with bright foliage along the neck and antlers that reacts realistically when summoned. It belongs to the chloroceros family of mounts and counts as a unique model among Midnight mounts, making it appealing for collectors who want zone-themed or nature-themed mounts.

From a collector perspective it hits several boxes: a unique look, a low barrier-to-entry vendor purchase, and a contained farming activity (Glowing Moths) that players can complete in a single zone instead of chasing multiple systems.

How to Get Vivid Chloroceros

This section walks through the exact acquisition steps so you can plan your run.

Step 1 — Capture Glowing Moths (Luminous Dust currency)

Glowing Moths are small, treasure-like collectables scattered across Harandar. Each captured moth drops Luminous Dust, which is the currency used by Mothkeeper Wew’tam. You will need to capture at least 50 moths to make the vendor trade the mount to you. Each moth you capture gives you 1 Luminous Dust, so the direct cost of the mount is 10 Luminous Dust but the vendor will not show the mount line until you meet the capture threshold.

Step 2 — Find Mothkeeper Wew’tam

Mothkeeper Wew’tam is the vendor sitting in The Den, a large cave in central Harandar. Once you have the required moth captures, speak with Wew’tam and purchase the mount for 10 Luminous Dust. The mount item is bind-on-pickup and teaches an account-wide mount when used.

Notes and variations to the process

• Some goodies and vendor items behind Wew’tam require higher capture counts (examples include other mounts or ornaments that need the full 120-moth collection), so the moth activity has multiple thresholds. Focus on the 50-moth threshold to unlock this specific mount.
• Some Glowing Moths are gated by Hara’ti renown. You may need to progress the Harandar renown line to reveal specific moths or chest icons on the map. The gating mainly affects visibility of certain moth locations rather than the core mechanic of capturing them.
• If you already completed Dust ‘Em Off (the 120-moth exploration achievement) you will have more than enough currency to buy multiple vendor rewards; the 120-moth completion yields enough Luminous Dust to purchase top vendor items.

Location

All of the activity for this mount takes place inside the Harandar zone on the Midnight expansion map. The vendor is in The Den, a central cavern complex within Harandar. Glowing Moths spawn all over the zone, including caves, ridgelines, and tucked-away hollows. Use the in-game map along with community coordinate routes to farm efficiently.

Requirements

• Minimum captures: You must capture at least 50 Glowing Moths before the vendor will trade the mount.
• Currency: 10 Luminous Dust to buy the mount from the vendor. Each captured moth yields Luminous Dust.
• Zone access: Access to Harandar (Midnight expansion content) is required.
• Riding/level: Community sources list Level 10 and Apprentice Riding as the riding requirements for the mount. Riding requirements may vary between patches and regions; check your mount UI when you obtain the item to confirm.
• Renown: Some moths and related vendor lines are gated by Hara’ti renown. You may need to advance renown (short questlines and zone activity) to reveal all moths and to speed collection. This is usually a minor time investment.

Farming Tips

Practical tips to minimize time spent collecting moths and getting the mount fast.

Efficient route planning

• Follow a mapped route. Community guides and comments on the main databases provide coordinate lists for the 120 moths. If you only need 50, pick a dense cluster near The Den to minimize run time.
• Use a flying mount if your character has the appropriate riding skill unlocked. Many Glowing Moths sit on ledges or inside small caves, so short bursts of flight shorten the route when allowed.
• If you are short on time, aim to capture moths that are not gated by renown first. Progress renown in parallel so you unlock the higher-threshold moths without wasting runs.

Solo vs group and alt strategies

• Solo friendly. Capturing moths is a single-player activity. You can clear and capture at your own pace without group coordination.
• Alts. If you want the mount on multiple characters, you only need to learn the mount once; the learned mount is account-wide. However, the capture threshold that unlocks the vendor for specific vendor items can be character-gated in some cases, so use one main character to do the moth run and then enjoy the mount across characters.
• Speed runs. If you want to be done quickly, plan a 30–90 minute session centered on dense moth clusters. Experienced players report the 50-moth requirement can be completed in under an hour with a prepared route. Times vary by experience and world traffic.

Is This Mount Still Obtainable?

Yes. As of current community databases and the in-game vendor listings, the mount is available and can be purchased from Mothkeeper Wew’tam once you meet the capture threshold and have the dust currency. There have been no public reports of permanent retirement or limited-time availability for this vendor reward, though UI inconsistencies or temporary bugs can hide items from the mount journal for individual players. If the vendor or moths are missing from your game session, double-check that you have zone access and meet the capture/renown thresholds, and check official patch notes if you suspect a temporary issue.

Is It Worth Farming?

Short answer: for most collectors, yes. It is low effort compared with raid-only mounts or extremely rare rare-spawn drops. Here are the key collector considerations:

• Rarity: It is not an RNG raid drop with sub-1% rates, so it lacks the prestige of very rare boss mounts. Instead, prestige comes from being an expansion-themed mount that not everyone will have because it requires zone exploration.
• Appearance: The mount’s bright foliage and distinct silhouette hold up visually. It stands out in screenshots and collectors’ rosters that prioritize unique aesthetics.
• Time investment: The clear time commitment is the 50-moth threshold plus collecting 10 Luminous Dust. That shorter requirement makes it a reasonable purchase for casual collectors or completionists who are already working Harandar content.
• Long-term appeal: Because the mount is tied to a single zone activity rather than a temporary event, it is likely to remain obtainable and desirable for years. That permanence increases its collector value compared with limited-time store items.

Similar Mounts

Here are 4 mounts collectors commonly consider alongside this chloroceros.

• Elder Glowmite — Sold by the same vendor and tied to the full 120-moth activity. Larger and more eye-catching; good if you plan to finish the complete moth collection.
• Vivacious / Blue-Violet Chloroceros variants — Other chloroceros palette variants that share the model family. If you want multiple colors of the same model, these are natural follow-ups. Community pages list variant names and related vendor sources.
• Harandar bird mount (Light Up the Night reward) — Another Harandar-themed mount that comes from a compact mini-achievement in the zone. Good for players who prefer aerial or avian aesthetics while still collecting Midnight-themed rewards.
• Other Midnight vendor mounts — Any mount tied to Midnight zone activities will complement this one, especially vendor mounts purchased with small, contained currencies like Luminous Dust. Use your Harandar runs to collect several vendor rewards at once.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I still get this mount?

Yes. The mount is currently sold by Mothkeeper Wew’tam in The Den, Harandar for 10 Luminous Dust after you capture at least 50 Glowing Moths.

How many Glowing Moths do I need to capture?

You must capture at least 50 moths to unlock the vendor trade for this mount. Other vendor items use higher thresholds, with the full Dust ‘Em Off achievement requiring 120 moths.

How much Luminous Dust does the mount cost?

The mount costs 10 Luminous Dust. Each captured Glowing Moth provides Luminous Dust, so the currency is straightforward to earn while capturing.

Do I need to be a certain renown rank to see or capture moths?

Some Glowing Moths and map icons are gated behind Hara’ti renown. You do not need to reach very high renown for the 50-moth threshold in most cases, but progressing renown makes hidden moths visible and speeds up collection.

Can I farm the moths solo?

Yes. The moth captures are a solo-friendly exploration activity. Players routinely complete the 50-moth requirement on their own.

Is the mount account-wide?

Yes. The mount becomes account-wide once learned, meaning any eligible character on the account can use it after you teach it.

How long should I expect to farm this?

Times vary by experience and route. If you only aim for the 50 moths, experienced players report completion times between 30 minutes and 90 minutes using a prepared route; longer if you explore or progress renown simultaneously.

Is this mount tradable or purchasable from the store?

No. This mount is a vendor reward within Harandar and must be obtained via the in-game moth collection activity. Third-party services may offer paid boosts to complete the requirement for you, but those are external services and not required to obtain the mount in-game.

Final Thoughts

If you enjoy zone-focused collectibles and want a distinctive ground mount without committing to raid RNG or a massive time sink, this one is worthwhile. The 50-moth threshold plus a small currency cost makes it one of the more approachable Midnight mounts, and its unique look ensures it remains a good pickup for completionists and visual collectors. Plan a route, progress a bit of Hara’ti renown if needed, and the mount is a short, satisfying reward for a single-zone farming session.
