Odds of getting one are 1 in 24 boxes of cards give or take.
... in other words, if you get one eBay it.

This mount does not make you go any faster than walking speed. It's just for looks :).

评论来自 7901

This is one of the rewards from Blizzard's World of Warcraft Trading Card Game.

The mount moves at normal speed. so unfortunately its just for looks.

There are a couple other items you can achieve from the trading card game as well.

Tabard of Flame- https://www.cuckhead.com/tbc/item=23705
Tabard of Frost - https://www.cuckhead.com/tbc/item=23709

and a couple non combative pets which i forget the names.

Just neat items that give your character a unique feel against the norm of a wow servers.

Cheers!

Should be noted, as this is a mount it can be affected by +mount speed items. I know this doesn't really mean a lot but if you have a talent (Eg. Pursuit of justice or Animal Handler) you may be able to mildly increase your mounted speed at lower levels. Plus the mithril spurs and glove enchant could come in handy.
Most you can get at low levels is glove enchant (+2%) and mithril spurs (+4%) so that means you can make your mount speed 106%... which is actually slower than a minor speed enchant...

I would love to get this mount. Do you have to get the card? Is there a different code on every card?

评论来自 30226

In terms of "rarity", this is one of the rarest items in the game. The other two items - the Hippogryph Hatchling and the Tabard of Flame - are rare, but not by comparison.

You cannot incerase the speed on this item. and the speed on it is normal run speed inside world of warcraft.

j/w since its not really a mout=nt can you use it at any level?

nevermind i found that out

This mount IS affected by mount speed items as I have found. I do not own this item but I've researched and come to that conclusion. If not it's interesting at least. And if you don't want this mount and you have the card, you can sell it on ebay for crazy amounts. :P

Paladins with crusader aura on effectively give this turtle a 20% boost in speed from your base-walking speed. This turtle is no Netherdrake, but it's still very unique.

How is the turtle code redeemed in game? Is it simply login in into your account on the web and there will be a place there to enter it? Could anyone explain it, please? Thanks!

Sorry, I am dumb (too early to read straight). The code is redeemed in Booty Bay, as stated before on comments.

Where does it come from and how hard is it to get?
The Riding Turtle comes from the World of Warcraft TCG (trading card game)
TCG Expansion: Heroes of Azeroth (Official Site)
Card: Saltwater Snapjaw
Rarity: 1/484 booster packs
Distribution: Heroes of Azeroth booster boxes contain 24 boosters and cost approx $45 USD (inc. shipping), therefore the average cost of obtaining this particular loot is $908.00.

How much would I expect to pay for one off eBay or similar?
According to http://www.wowtcgloot.com/riding_turtle.htm (most information sourced from there), the lowest Buy It Now price starts around $100 USD upwards to $130 USD, with the average quantity listed hovering around 5 items.

Facts:

On land, turtle mount moves at normal character running / walk speed.
In water, swim speed increased to 100%.
No riding skill is required to use.
Can be affected by +mount speed items and spell effects.
When learned, the turtle mount counts toward the Mountain \'o Mounts achievement.
Useable at any level and therefore available for twinks.

How do the Loot cards work?
Loot cards are special rare versions of WoW TCG cards found in booster packs, starter decks, and raid decks that have a revealable unique code. Once this protective layer concealing the code is scratched away, a 25 digit promotion code is revealed that can be entered into the Blizzard offical promotions page. These codes work for both US and EU servers.

I have the 25 digit loot code, now what?
All accounts from every region in the world use http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/misc/promotion.html to redeem any and all special loot. This webpage allows you to enter the 25 digit promotion code and also select the region and realm for the character that will receive the loot item.

Upon succcessfuly submitting the above information, you will be presented with an in-game code. Write this code down or print it out; you will need it to retrieve your item. Log into the game with the character that is to receive the item and travel to Booty Bay in Stranglethorn Vale. There, you will need to find a goblin by the name of Landro Longshot. He is located on the lower parts of Booty Bay on the docks, and should be easily recognised due to the fact that he has a distinctive purple shirt and two body guards next to him.

When you find Landro, he will first ask if you are here for a promotion, and then ask you which TCG expansion your item comes from (or Points Redemption); check your loot card if you are not sure which item that is. Ensure you have got bag space to hold the item!

bought 1 pack of cards and got it, used it on my 19 twink :D

评论来自 whitedragon254

I have one in game. Before it was made a epic mount (along with the other loot card stuff) when it was still white named they required level 20 to use. They removed the level limit after turning it epic. The turtle CAN be effected by all mount speed effects. I dont know all the names of them atm but Apparently if you get alot of the mount speed bonus items (spurs, carrot on a stick, riding crop) It can be near 100% speed when all used together. While someone would probably have a epic mount by that time they can get all that the turtle mount can be turned into a epic mount speed and its like a free mount :D Im happy with my turtle very fun to play with.

Can I get it from TCG when i play on free server please?

评论来自 Skelic

This is in fact a mount, thus affected by Crusader Aura (20% mounted speed). But.. If one took Mithril Spurs to the boots they'd get a 4% speed increase to this beautys speed, however this isn't anything you should be thrilled about..

Having minor speed-enchant on boots adds 8% to run speed, this mount goes as fast as run speed. So basicly not using this mount and just using a minor speed-enchant on boots is faster unless you have a paladin with you.

Another note too, even if you had Riding Skill-enchant on your gloves, it wouldn't matter. It adds 2% to your mounted speed, thus still being 2% slower if you just had minor speed on boots. Also, the third item you'll get to increase your mounted speed is Carrot on a Stick, but the quest is min. for level 40 - at level 40 you get the regular mount anyways.

Ofcourse this is just a flavor mount, to ego around and hop happily with your turtle, but I thought that I might aswell bring up this useless information that might come useful for some people.

EVERY class/race can use this mount at level _20_. You can get this mount by buying WoW Trading Cards in real-life, and then get the code from the turtle mount, use it somewhere in-game and be happy and ride around at normal walking speed.

Riding Turtle:

A mount usable at level 20 and above. Requires no riding skill and moves at normal run speed. Riding enhancements supposedly affect the turtle.

Find a Saltwater Snapjaw loot card from UDE's World of Warcraft collectible card game. Available in Heroes of Azeroth booster packs and Onyxia's Lair Raid decks. Scratch off the card to reveal your code and follow the directions on www.ude.com/loot

ok...once you get the Saltwater Snapjaw from the WOW TCG and scratch off the password(after you tell it to me) you go to Booty Bay and look for the hired bodyguard on the turtle mount...there will be a guy next to him. he will ask you for the password type it in then ur done.

评论来自 Thottbot

Some guys must be idiots. You cant get this item through just one code in-game. First you get a code to use at web, there you choose realm and region, after that you get a new code which you use at Landro in Booty Bay.
Good luck with the hacking as it's 25 digits and all got to be right.

u need code for turtle xD

评论来自 Thottbot

Even though this item is "Level 20", there is no restriction on what level you need to be in order to use it. My 19 twink is riding around on his right now! :)

评论来自 Thottbot

I was just wondering if you can get this on more than one toon. I want to get it for my twink but it would be hot to have with my main also.

评论来自 Thottbot

So say your twink has the minor speed enchant to their boots. Does riding this turtle make you go at normal speed, or normal speed + enchant speed?

I suspect it's the former, which means your twink will be going slower than they should be. Not good.

EDIT: Also I've read rumours that mithril spurs/riding enchant to gloves effect the speed. Is this true? I would like to see someone with the mount do some tests and post convincing results.

评论来自 Thottbot

Yea mount speed bonuses make you go slower. o.O

If you have the Riding Crop, Carrot on a stick or any of the other items that make your mount go faster (Some of them don't stack together), it will be your mount's normal speed + the bonus. For example, the riding crop makes you ride 10% faster, so if you're on a level 40 mount, the mount will go at 70% speed. The level 60(100%) mount will go at 110% speed.

About the Riding Turtle, it might be a silly thought, but I haven't seen anyone mention this before. What about if you can swim with it? Only someone who has it on the original servers can say the answer to that.

评论来自 Thottbot

What do we play this game for if not loot? We raid for loot. We rep grind for loot. We spend countless hours playing this game for pixels. Extra pixels on the chest / shoulders / feet of another block of pixels. If someone wants to waste more time and money for another block of pixels, let them. This game all leads to loot, and this is just extra loot.
Fyi: 1) this is useable on a character of any level.
2) the max speed you can move with this mount is run speed. 3) you cant hack the code to obtain this mount. I'm sure blizzard hasnt overlooked this, and this idea was probably thought up by some 12 year old with an IQ of 20.

评论来自 Thottbot

GENERAL:
Why should we listen to you? I got the turtle mount recently and have done lots of testing. I got it for my 29 twink.

How do you get the turtle mount? Officially, you buy World of Warcraft Trading Card Game (TCG) packs. The turtle mount is a loot card, also known as a legendary card. I however have no interest in these cards, so got it off ebay. There's a code on the card you can use to claim your reward.

EDIT: There is a non-legendary turtle card, it's just an ordinary card with no code on it. RRP of 50 cents on ebay. Added this in to clear any confusion.

OMFG you actually paid money for this? You must be a loser get a gf. Actually, my gf bought this for me off ebay as a present. What can I say, she supports my hobby.

Lucky bastard! But you still wasted your money! Again, I like to think of it as a hobby. Hobbies cost money.

So what are the odds of getting this legendary card from a pack? Lots of different people are quoting lots of different odds. I don't think anyone knows for sure. For what it's worth, I believe 1 in 48 booster packs. If you're only interested in the turtle, your cheapest option is ebay.

Is there a level requirement to ride this turtle? No. A level 1 can ride this.

Can all of my characters use the turtle once I have the code? No. One code per character. If you want all 5 of your characters to be riding on a turtle, then you're going to have to buy 5 separate loot cards. The turtle is soulbound once you claim it.

Can you tell me the code to get the turtle? Plzzz omg. Even if I did, it wouldn't work. Once you use the code it's expired.

Is it possible to hack the code so I can get a free turtle? Good luck! I'm sure blizzard have gone to great lengths to ensure their promotional rewards cannot be hacked.

PRACTICAL:
How fast is the turtle? It is normal running speed. In other words it is 0% faster. It multiplies your running speed by 1.00.

Can I make the turtle go faster? Here's the juicy stuff. You can skip this if you don't care.

Say you have Enchant Boots - Minor Speed on your boots (or any of the AB boots). That gives an 8% running speed boost. Does this make your turtle go 8% faster? NO! If you're twinking, having the running speed enchant is fairly standard, so you will be going slower than all the other twinks.

But wait, all is not lost. There is Enchant Gloves - Riding Skill and Mithril Spurs that a twink could use to up the turtle's speed. Do these actually work and make your turtle go faster? YES! (There's also carrot on a stick and riding crop, but I'm only interested in twinks here.)

SO, how fast do you go if you use the riding skill enchant on your gloves AND the mithril spurs on your boots?

Riding Skill Enchant is an extra 2%

Mithril Spurs is an extra 4%

Final Speed = Turtle speed * enchant * spurs

= 1.00 * 1.02 * 1.04
= 1.0608
= 6.08% faster

In other words you'll be going 1.92% slower than your twink friends.
(The above calculations are correct, please do not argue otherwise.)

If you're not twinking and have carrot on a stick IN ADDITION to the enchant and spurs, you can make your turtle go 9.2624% faster. If you have riding crop, you can make your turtle go 10% faster. You cannot make it go any faster than 10% using these items.

Can I use items or trinkets while on the turtle mount? No. It's like a regular mount in this respect.

Can druids use the mount while shapeshifted, or can I use the mount while under the effects of noggenfogger or any other shape changing effect? No. You cannot mount while shapeshifted. It's just like a regular mount in this respect.

Can the turtle swim through or above the water? This would be cool, but unfortunately not.

Can I pick up the (outdoor) "speed boots bonus" in AB while on this mount? You can, but they'll have no effect. It'll just use up the bonus. The "healing" and "berserker" bonuses do work though.

Can I run with the WSG flag, or cap a node in AB while on this mount? No. It's like a regular mount in this respect.

What mods are compatible with the turtle mount? I had no luck in getting SimpleMountEquip 1.8 or ItemRack 1.9x to recognise the mount.

QuickMountEquip 3.0.7 and Auto FlightPath Unmount on the other hand had no problems.

I haven't tested any other mount mods, but at least you know those 2 work.

OTHER:
Do you get asked a lot about the turtle in game? Yes. If people ask where I got it from, I tell them it drops from "the ogre boss in deadmines".

Cool stuff You can /dance while on the mount, but not while it's moving.

评论来自 Allakhazam

This is one of the items available as a reward to players of the World of Warcraft CCG/TCG (Collectable/Tradable Card Game).

The cards that give you an item are:
1) Landro Longshot: Item: Tabard of Flame
2) Thunderhead Hippogryph: Item: Hippogryph Hatchling (non-combat pet)
3) Saltwater Snapjaw: Item: Riding Turtle (moves at your walking speed)

To get the item, you need a copy of the card that no one has used yet. There is a scratch of area (like an instant lottery game), under this scratch off area is a code unique to that copy of that card, so each card's code can only be used once ever.

There are three more items that are only available with "UDE Points". Each booster pack comes with a code that can be used online to register 100 UDE points. Get enough points and you can spend them on UDE/WoW Items. The in-game items that will be available are:
1) An alternate blue tabard
2) A reusable trinket that sets off a unique fireworks display
3) A reusable trinket that changes your in-game appearance to an ogre

Last, but not least, each of these items is specific to the single character you claim it for, not your whole account.

评论来自 Allakhazam

The mount moves at normal running / walk speed.
No riding skill is required to use.
Can be affected by +mount speed items.
Using Fresh Holly on the turtle mount turns it temporarily into a level 40 Reindeer mount with 60% speed boost. The holly requires level 40 to use, but you could be level 40 without any riding skill and use the holly and the turtle mount together to at least temporarily get you a "free" level 40 mount.
Useable at any level and therefore available for twinks.

Got one of these for my 39 pvp twink.

Even with her +run speed boots it goes at normal run speed so you actually LOSE speed. I get passed by quite a few people coming out of the gate in AB which should not happen.

When you ride over the speed buff in AB/WSG, it eats the buff but does not put it on you or increase your speed.

I consider both of those to be bugs.

Can anyone verify if mithril spurs + riding skill glove enchant affect the speed at all?

On average you would spend $1000s buying packs trying to get this. If you really want one, I've seen them on eBay for $100-125 buyout.

This mount moves at 100% speed, that is the normal speed withouta mount!

It does not increase you speed by 100%, it does 0% change to your speed. An epic mount increases by 100%, so you are travveling at 200%, and a normal mount increases by 60% so you are travelling at 160%. 100% = normal speed....

And besides, it clearly says "It may be slow, but it gets you off your feet!" Why would it say that if it was travelling at epic mount speed! Note how an epic mount says "This is a very fast mount." Since when did "It may be slow, but it gets you off your feet!" and "This is a very fast mount." become one and teh same? Use your brains please....
