Cloud serpent mounts

For lore, see cloud serpent.

Cloud serpent mounts are available in a variety of vibrant colors. When they were first added in Mists of Pandaria, they could only be used with the [Cloud Serpent Riding] skill, which required exalted reputation with the Order of the Cloud Serpent and was not account-wide. With Cloud Serpent Riding's removal in patch 6.0.2, cloud serpents now have the same skill requirements as most other flying mounts—though they can still be time-consuming to acquire in the first place.

All of these mounts are available to both factions.
