The Translocated Gorger is a heavy, devourer-style ground mount with a grotesque, jaw-filled model and slow, loping movement. It appeals to collectors who like monstrous, uncommon mounts and to players who enjoy predictable, multi-week grinds rather than one-shot drops. The grind is straightforward, but gated by a weekly cap that makes this a five-week minimum investment for most players.

Quick Answer

What it is: a ground devourer mount learned from an item that requires crafting from 20 Devoured Energy-Pods. How to get it: collect 20 Devoured Energy-Pods earned from the weekly Devourer Swarm events on K’aresh, then combine them into the mount item and learn it. Rarity and availability: obtainable, added in Patch 11.2, but limited by a four-per-week cap on pods so expect at least five weeks of farming. Why collectors want it: unique devourer model and limited weekly acquisition make it a prestige grind that stays relevant in a collector’s stable.

Mount Overview

The mount uses the devourer/gorger model family. Visually it is bulky and organic, with exposed teeth and fleshy plating that give it a horror-themed silhouette. It is a ground-only mount and uses the same model family as several other gorger mounts, which helps explain its collector appeal for players hunting monstrous or “vore” style mounts. It is an account-learned mount taught by an item that is Bind on Pickup and requires apprentice riding or the relevant riding unlocks for your expansion.

How to Get Translocated Gorger

The mount is assembled from a currency-like item called Devoured Energy-Pod. You need 20 Devoured Energy-Pods to create the Translocated Gorger mount item, which teaches the mount when used. Devoured Energy-Pods drop as guaranteed loot from the final bosses of the weekly Devourer Swarm events that occur across the K’aresh zone. Each week your warband can collect up to four pods, one from each different Devourer Swarm location. That weekly cap is the main gating mechanic.

Step-by-step

• Go to K’aresh and look for the Devourer Swarm world events (these appear on the map as event vignette icons when active).
• Participate and help fill the event progress bar by killing devourers until the location-specific rare spawn appears.
• Kill the event boss. When it is the first kill for that particular boss for the week and your warband, it drops one Devoured Energy-Pod for the warband. You will need to loot or obtain the pod in order to add it to your collection.
• Repeat across the four different Devourer Swarm locations to net up to four pods per week for your warband.
• Collect 20 pods total, then combine them (the in-game item/recipe process will be described in the item tooltip) to create the Translocated Gorger mount item and learn it. Once learned the mount is account-wide.

Location

The events occur on K’aresh, with four rotating locations that cycle through The Oasis, Eco-Dome: Primus, The Atrium, and Tazavesh. Only one location is active at a time, and the next event’s timer usually begins after the last location’s boss is defeated. Because of that rotation you need to watch the map or chat messages and position yourself on the shard where the event appears if you want to chain multiple locations in a session.

Requirements

• Character must be eligible to ride mounts on the current expansion (the mount item states it requires apprentice riding for ground speed in most cases).
• You must be able to participate in K’aresh world events (ownership of the appropriate expansion content and access to the K’aresh zone).
• Collect 20 Devoured Energy-Pods and combine them into the Translocated Gorger mount item.
• Be in a warband that can loot the weekly pod; because the weekly cap applies per warband, coordinating on the same shard/warband increases efficiency.

Farming Tips

The gating mechanic is the weekly, per-warband limitation of one pod per specific Devourer Swarm boss. That means smart timing and shard/warband choice beat raw playtime. Here are practical tips to speed the grind.

Plan for at least five weeks

Because you can earn at most four pods per warband each week, expect a minimum of five weeks to gather the 20 pods needed for the mount. Don’t treat this like a single-session farm. Schedule sessions around event rotations to squeeze the most pods out of your playtime.

Chain events on the same shard

• Devourer Swarm events are time-linked: the timer for the next attack generally starts when the current boss is defeated. Stay on the same shard and trigger the next spawn rather than leaving the zone or shard. This avoids long idle waits between events and prevents shard-restriction problems. Community reports indicate rotation order is Oasis → Eco-Dome: Primus → The Atrium → Tazavesh, though Blizzard has tested variations in timing. Keep an eye on the map and chat.

Warband coordination and shard-hopping

Your warband’s first kill of a specific Devourer boss each week grants the pod. If you play with friends, coordinate which warband kills which location. If you play solo, use the group finder and shard-hopping tactics to find active events where you can be part of the first kill for that rare. This is especially valuable for players with limited weekly play windows.

Alt strategy

The weekly pod cap is tracked per warband and not strictly per character, which makes alts useful but not an instant bypass. If you run multiple warbands or coordinate across characters on different shards you can increase weekly intake, but this requires extra account management and is subject to the same first-kill rules. Check the in-game event icons and use the macro below to see which bosses you or your group have killed this week.

/run for k, v in pairs({ Harvester = 86464, Miasmawrath = 86447, Wallbreaker = 86465, Korgoth = 84993}) do print(format("%s: %s", k, C_QuestLog.IsQuestFlaggedCompleted(v) and "|cff00ff00Killed|r" or "|cffff0000Not Killed|r")) end

Is This Mount Still Obtainable?

Yes. The Translocated Gorger was added in Patch 11.2 and is currently obtainable through the Devourer Swarm events on K’aresh. It is not a promotional or limited-time mount in the sense of a one-off event, but its multi-week gating and event mechanics make it a longer-term grind rather than an immediate drop.

Is It Worth Farming?

From a collector perspective the mount is worth the time if you prioritize unique, monstrous models and enjoy predictable, repeatable grinds. The mount stands out visually among devourer-style mounts and uses a model that remains distinctive in player stables. If you dislike multi-week gated grinds or you only play sporadically, this mount will require planning and patience.

Considerations:

• Appearance: If devourer aesthetics fit your transmog or stable, this is high value. The model is less about speed and more about novelty and intimidation.
• Time investment: Minimum five weeks if you consistently get four pods per week. Missing weeks or failing to secure first-kill pods will extend that.
• Prestige: The deliberate, calendar-limited nature gives it a modest prestige factor; it’s not a trophy raid mount but it is a deliberate collection item that rewards planning.

Collector Notes

Collectors should think in calendar chunks rather than sessions. If you can reserve one or two weekly windows to secure a pod or two, the mount becomes a matter of steady completion rather than intense farming. The mount pairs well with other devourer or aberrant mounts for themed collections, and it often appeals to players who want a more grotesque or “big monster” display in their mount roster. If you already have similar gorger mounts, this one fits neatly and does not feel redundant because of its unique textures and size.

Similar Mounts

• Loyal Gorger — shares the gorger/devourer family model and appeals to players who want a similar monstrous silhouette. Good for collectors focusing on model families.
• Voracious Gorger — another mount that uses the gorger visuals and complements the Translocated Gorger for a cohesive devourer set.
• Other large aberrant mounts — any oversized, fleshy mounts in your collection will match the aesthetic and emphasize a monstrous stable. Consider grouping them for theme screenshots or transmogs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I still obtain the Translocated Gorger?

Yes. It is an obtainable mount added in Patch 11.2 and is earned by collecting 20 Devoured Energy-Pods from Devourer Swarm events on K’aresh.

How many Devoured Energy-Pods do I need?

You need 20 Devoured Energy-Pods to create the Translocated Gorger mount item and learn it.

What is the weekly cap on pods?

Your warband can receive up to four Devoured Energy-Pods per week, one from each of the four Devourer Swarm bosses. That cap makes the mount a multi-week grind.

Can I farm it solo?

You can participate in the events solo, but securing the weekly pod usually requires being part of the first kill on a Devourer Swarm boss for your warband and shard. Solo players can still get pods, but coordination or shard choice helps.

Is the mount account-wide?

The mount item is Bind on Pickup, and once learned the mount is account-wide in the mount journal. The item notes it teaches an account-wide mount.

How long will it take to get?

Minimum five weeks if you secure the full four pods per week. If you miss weeks or fail to secure first-kill pods you should expect a longer timeline.

Can multiple characters on my account farm pods separately?

Pods are tracked per warband and shard mechanics can complicate multiple-character strategies. You can use alts, but coordinating warbands and shard activity is required to maximize weekly intake. This is not a simple per-character weekly reset bypass.

Are drop rates known?

The Devoured Energy-Pods are a guaranteed weekly reward from the specific event boss when your warband performs the first-kill that week. Exact additional drop mechanics beyond the one-per-boss weekly pod are not necessary to plan around because the weekly cap is the limiting factor. Community commentary and databases reflect this guaranteed weekly pod behavior.

Final Thoughts

The Translocated Gorger is a solid collector mount for players who appreciate monstrous models and don’t mind a measured, multi-week grind. The mechanics are predictable and fair: you know exactly how many weeks it will take if you can secure four pods each week. Plan your sessions around event windows, coordinate shards and warbands when possible, and treat this as a slow, steady project rather than a marathon session. For collectors who value consistency and model uniqueness, it is worth the effort.
