A Cyan Glowmite brings a soft blue light to the Ringing Deeps' otherwise smoky workshop palette. It is an appealing insect flyer for a collector who prefers gentle illumination to the bright flames and metal armor of many Khaz Algar mounts.

The purchase is tied to the Assembly of the Deeps. It should not be confused with Crimson Mudnose, the faction's earlier ground mount, or a rare reward from the machine-defense event.

Quick Answer

Reach Renown 23 with the Assembly of the Deeps and buy Cyan Glowmite from Waxmonger Squick in Gundargaz, the Ringing Deeps, around 47.4, 32.8. The price is 11,375 Resonance Crystals. This flying mount remains obtainable in Retail by both factions. Renown 19 belongs to Crimson Mudnose, a separate mount, and is not the Glowmite's unlock.

Mount Overview

Introduced in The War Within, Cyan Glowmite is a softly luminous insect mount associated with the kobolds and workers of the Ringing Deeps. Its light-blue appearance is the main reason to choose it over a conventional armored flyer.

The mount supports flight under ordinary riding rules. There is no profession requirement, no kobold transformation to maintain, and no need to complete a Mythic dungeon for the purchase.

Learning the item adds the appearance to the shared account collection. The faction's Renown is Warband shared as well, although the buying character still needs the crystals and access to Squick.

How to Get the Cyan Glowmite

Establish Gundargaz

Progress The War Within campaign through the Ringing Deeps and complete the introduction to Gundargaz. Follow the local story until the Assembly's normal activities and Renown services become available.

Waxmonger Squick is the Renown quartermaster in the settlement, around 47.4, 32.8 on the Ringing Deeps map. The merchant is outdoors in the hub rather than inside Darkflame Cleft.

A returning Warband may already have the faction established. Check the Renown panel before assuming a newly selected buyer has to start the entire reputation project independently.

Complete one-time reputation opportunities

Finish available Ringing Deeps campaign and side quests that award Assembly of the Deeps reputation. These are useful early gains and introduce the region's recurring systems.

Read the reward faction when deciding what to complete. Council of Dornogal, Hallowfall Arathi, and the Severed Threads have separate mount tracks, even though they all belong to Khaz Algar.

Warband-first-time rewards are not multiplied endlessly by repeating the same quest on alts. Use unfinished account objectives and the faction's real recurring activities for continuing progress.

Add the recurring Assembly activities

Complete Assembly-associated world quests as they appear in the Ringing Deeps. Eligible rare first-time rewards and other regional objectives can add progress where their actual reward grants the faction's standing.

Awakening the Machine is an important weekly activity. Follow its local introduction, complete the available defense waves, and open the earned Awakened Chests rather than leaving the rewards unclaimed.

Collect Odd Globs of Wax from Disturbed Earth through the snuffling system and complete the weekly Rollin' Down in the Deeps when available. Ordinary wax turn-ins and the named weekly reputation reward should not be treated as the same unlimited reputation source.

A suitable contract can add reputation to eligible Khaz Algar world quests if you are working across several zones. This is an optional supplement rather than another mount requirement.

Reach the correct Renown milestone

Continue until the Assembly's main track reaches Renown 23. Check the reward at that rank to confirm the Cyan Glowmite purchase is unlocked.

Renown 19 opens Crimson Mudnose, the faction's earlier ground mount. Some item displays contain multiple neighboring Renown requirement lines, so use the mount's actual rank-23 faction reward rather than assuming 19 is sufficient.

Rank 23 grants purchase access. It does not automatically deliver the mount free, and reaching the faction's maximum Renown is not required for the Glowmite itself.

Buy the mount with crystals

Reserve 11,375 Resonance Crystals and return to Waxmonger Squick. The currency can come from eligible Khaz Algar activities and claimed Renown rewards, not just the Ringing Deeps.

Use current Warband currency transfers if you need to bring saved crystals onto the shopper. Confirm the buyer's balance before selecting Cyan Glowmite in Squick's inventory.

Pay the crystals, learn the item, and verify the blue insect in the journal. There is no additional rare roll after the payment and no reason to buy a separate copy for every alt.

Location and Requirements

• Continent: Khaz Algar.
• Zone and hub: the Ringing Deeps, Gundargaz.
• Merchant: Waxmonger Squick, approximately 47.4, 32.8.
• Gate: Assembly of the Deeps Renown 23.
• Payment: 11,375 Resonance Crystals.

Both factions can follow this route. Normal riding and local flight eligibility remain separate from obtaining the mount item.

Farming Tips

Prioritize the available weekly activities and claim their containers before adding smaller objectives. A completed event with unopened chests can leave useful reputation and currency sitting outside your visible totals.

Keep the crystal budget intact if you plan to buy Crimson Mudnose as well. Owning the earlier mount is optional, and spending its price first can delay Cyan even after rank 23 is reached.

Do not import Dragonflight's Sniffenseeking system into this route. The Ringing Deeps uses snuffling and wax activities; Myrrit's Zaralek digs are unrelated to Assembly progression.

Is This Mount Still Obtainable?

Yes. Cyan Glowmite remains a permanent Renown shop reward in Retail. It is not a limited seasonal mount or the random Machine Defense Unit reward from Awakening the Machine.

Is It Worth Farming?

The fixed Renown milestone and currency price make progress easy to plan. It is especially worthwhile if you also want the Assembly's other cosmetics and enjoy the regional weekly activities.

Transmog Pairings

Pale blue, silver, and soft white effects complement the glow. For a stronger contrast, dark mining gear lets the insect's light become the most visible feature.

Similar Mounts

• Crimson Mudnose is the earlier Assembly mount, offering a very different ground silhouette.
• Elder Glowmite gives insect collectors another appearance to compare within the broader family.
• Aquamarine Swarmite offers a cool-colored nerubian flyer from a separate Khaz Algar Renown track.
