What to do Before Shadowlands - Prepare for Cloud Serpent Tames

Today we are highlighting another topic from our
What to do Before Shadowlands
guide, this time aimed for all Hunters of Azeroth: Reaching Exalted status with the
Order of the Cloud Serpent
to tame Cloud Serpents in Shadowlands.
Blizzard added the ability for Hunters to tame Cloud Serpents in Shadowlands
, with the only requirement being to learn the new skill by purchasing
How to School Your Serpent
from the
Order of the Cloud Serpent
Quartermaster in Pandaria. The tome requires the character to be Exalted with the faction to purchase it,
but it can be sent to different characters in your account, so it isn't necessary for your Hunter to be exalted with the faction
.
Edit:
the book is account-bound, but apparently the Hunter must also be Exalted to use it, which defeats the account-bound purpose. This may be a bug.
Order of the Cloud Serpent
is a faction from Mists of Pandaria and can be quickly farmed to Exalted by completing dailies and turning
Quivering Firestorm Egg
s in. Learn more in our
guide to the Order of the Cloud Serpent faction
. You can also explore our
Database to see what Cloud Serpents can be tamed
!
This change is especially good considering Hunters will have
increased stable slots with the pre-patch
!

Already exalted with
Order of the Cloud Serpent
, not interested in Hunter tames, or looking for something else to do before Shadowlands? Well, make sure to check our guide on

Rei Lun
and tame it.

Thank Elune that the tome is account bound; I'd hate having to grind the rep up on my hunter alt when I already have 2 characters at Exalted with them.
oh, it is? I just grided rep on my pandaren hunter to buy it, even tho I already have it in my main hunter. well, it was fun and fast anyway!

Exactly i was starting to roll my eyes 'not again with the rep grinds' before fully reading. Thank god is account bound.
In the PTR, the book IS account bound, but you still have to be exalted with the Order of the Cloud Serpent in order to use it (which defeats the purpose of having it account bound). Hopefully, that will be fixed before it goes live.
Just tried on PTR, while you can buy the book on an exalted toon of any class, and then send it to a hunter on your account, you CANNOT learn it on that character unless they themselves are Exalted at the moment.
HOWEVER, you can use the book on a NON-Hunter that is Exalted, and it will apply the ability to tame them to your account, and your hunter(s) will then be able to tame them.
(Bought on an exalted warrior, sent to non-exalted hunter and couldn't learn, then sent to another exalted warrior alt and used the book, then went back to non-exalted hunter and was able to tame a cloud serpent.)
I don't understand why this item is BoA since you can buy and learn it on the same toon no matter the class and it applies to your account just fine. This might all change in a future PTR/Beta build however.
Thank you! Just tried this and it worked.
