"One has not truly lived until they have felt the tidal current rushing through their hair while atop a majestic seahorse," said no one. Ever.
In this guide, we will be exploring one of Vashj'ir's most lucrative and rare mobs:
波塞冬斯
!
波塞冬斯的缰绳
, which drops from
波塞冬斯
himself, shares the seahorse's beautiful and detailed model. The mount is slightly differs in color from that of Poseidus, taking on more of a green hue than Poseidus's blue.
If you’re looking to track your collections, Wowhead now has the
Battle Pet Collection Tracker
and
Mount Collection Tracker
! To use the tracker, simply import your character to view your collections.
You can read more about how to use this feature here!
The Basics
For those of you who are only interested in the most important info regarding
波塞冬斯
:
波塞冬斯
can be found in
Vashj'ir, Eastern Kingdoms
; Specifically the subzones
烁光海床
and
无底海渊
.
When killed, he has a 100% chance to drop:
波塞冬斯的缰绳
, an epic Bind on Equip mount with a green seahorse model.
A random Cataclysm BoE.
In order to loot and learn this mount, your character must be at least level 29 with the
高级骑术
skill. You cannot loot the mount on a Class Trial.
波塞冬斯
has a spawn timer of approximately
2-8 hours
, and unlike other similar rare spawns, he does NOT share a spawn timer with any other NPC.
There are five spawn points: four in Shimmering Expanse and one in Abyssal Depths. See
Spawn Points
for more information.
Poseidus cannot be tagged and looted in a raid group. You must be in a party of five or less in order to be able to loot.

Addons & Macros
These addons and macros are helpful for keeping track of spawn points and alerting you to spawns. They are not mandatory, but they will make your hunt easier.
Addons
SilverDragon
will show a popup whenever a rare NPC has been sighted via Target, Vignettes, Mouseover or Nameplates.
TomTom
for the TomTom Waypoints (/way), shows Map, Minimap POI Icons and a Navigation Arrow.
Copypasta
(
more recently updated
) or
Paste
to paste multiple /way commands in one go. For Paste, you may also need
Ace3
if you encounter errors and
AddonLoader
to automatically load the addon.
Remember, with SilverDragon and other "rare scanner" addons, you will only receive an alert if you see a nameplate, target the NPC or mouseover the NPC. These limitations were forced with the introduction of Vignette mobs in Warlords of Draenor, which overhauled the rare NPC system as a whole. Therefore, you cannot completely AFK and expect your addon to announce a spawn for you as was possible in the past.
Macros
If you have issues copying the following macro or are looking for more macros,
click this pastebin link.
/targetexact Poseidus
/run local N = UnitName("Target");if N and (N=="Poseidus") then PlaySound(13363);print(date(),N,"Found");SetRaidTarget("target",8);end
This macro will target Poseidus if he is up, alerting you with a sound and chat message. The macro will also place the skull raid marker on the target.

Spawn Information
波塞冬斯
has five spawn points. Four of these spawn points are scattered about in different locations in
烁光海床
, while one spawn point is deep within the
无底海渊
.
The spawn timer of Poseidus is currently 2-8 hours.
Since its corpse normally despawns very quickly when looted, it can be easily missed if you're camping for it. Poseidus is also known to bug out when killed. This is usually due to players not looting him properly, and in this situation, the corpse will stay up until a server reset, meaning it can be up for days. Because of this bug, it's not uncommon to see several Poseidus corpses at one spawn point!
The coordinates of all spawns points are listed below. The probability for a spawn appears to be split evenly between all five points, meaning no specific spawn point is better or luckier than the others.
Spawn Points
These waypoints can be added to TomTom:
/way Shimmering Expanse 66.6 41.4 Ruins of Thelserai
/way Shimmering Expanse 58.4 82.2 Biel'aran Ridge
/way Shimmering Expanse 46.6 50.0 Glimmerdeep Gorge
/way Shimmering Expanse 40.0 67.8 Ruins of Vashj'ir
/way Abyssal Depths 41.4 76.3 Underlight Canyon
波塞冬斯
will spawn underwater and do a small, circular path very close to his spawn point. He will continue pathing until killed, and will not despawn while alive.

Cross-Realm Zones, Warmode, and Chromie Time
Cross-Realm Zones
CRZ or Cross-Realm Zones are zones in which specific groups of servers share an instance of said zone. CRZ is implemented in all old-world zones. The groupings for both NA and EU servers are below.
High-population servers that are not connected with any other servers are colored red. Sets of connected realms are colored white and tan to differentiate them from adjacent sets. CTRL+F to find your realm quickly.

As an example, EU Silvermoon and EU Ghostlands are in the same CRZ group. This means that as a Silvermoon player in a pre-Battle for Azeroth zone, you can see and interact with players from Ghostlands, and vice-versa. In addition, all the NPCs and objects within the zone are shared between all players in the same CRZ group.
RP realms work a little differently, as they are not grouped with any other realms other than their connected realm(s), if any.
Connected realms are often mistaken for CRZ grouped realms, but they mean different things. Connected servers share zones, auction houses, guilds and players between them by default. Functionally, they work as one server, the only separation between the connected realms being their names.
This information is important because it often negates the value of the "Low," "Medium," "High," or "Full" population labels on realms. While your realm may be considered "Low" in population, it's very likely that it is in a large CRZ group with many other realms, effectively making your realm high-population in old-world zones. To circumvent this, RP realms can be used for camping, as can any realm that only has a few other realms in its CRZ group.
Warmode
The Warmode system allows you to control when you want to engage in open-world PvP regardless of what realm you are on. The option can be found in the bottom right area of your character's Talents page. Please note that this setting can be toggled off in any rested area, but can ONLY be toggled on while in Stormwind, Orgrimmar, or Valdrakken.
Warmode on and Warmode off are treated as completely separate phases. You cannot see or interact with players who are not on the same Warmode setting as you, even if you are both on the same realm. Rares will also spawn independently of each Warmode setting. To put it succinctly, you can think of the Warmode system as effectively doubling amount of phases in which your character can exist in while not partied.
Chromie Time Basics
Chromie Time is a feature introduced in patch 9.0.1 that can only be activated by characters level 10-59. When turned on, your character will have access to scaled versions of all zones from Legion and earlier.
Similar to warmode,
Chromie Time is a separate phase
from regular time. This means there are now 4 completely separate versions of every pre-Battle for Azeroth zone on each server group - Warmode Off, Warmode On, Chromie Time Warmode Off, and Chromie Time Warmode On.
To activate Chromie Time, talk to
Chromie
in either Orgrimmar or Stormwind. Which campaign you pick doesn't matter - there is only one version of Chromie Time that is either on or off, regardless of what zone you are in. Selecting different campaigns will not change this. If you wish to turn Chromie Time off again, simply talk to Chromie once more. Chromie Time will be unavailable if you are on a level 50+ character, on a class trial, or are a new player with no characters at level 60 yet.
Chromie Time and Party Sync
Level 60+ characters can indirectly enter Chromie Time by grouping with a lower level character who has Chromie Time enabled and then activating party sync. To activate party sync, go to your quest log (default shortcut: L), and click the party sync button below your quest list. Party sync is only available in a party group, and the button will not appear if you are solo or in a raid group.
If party sync is activated while the level 60+ character and Chromie Time character are in the same zone and warmode, the level 60+ character will be pulled to the same server as the Chromie Time character. If the characters are in different zones or have different warmode settings upon activation of party sync, the level 60+ character will still be put into Chromie Time, but on their own native server instead.
Additional tips on using party sync:
Some enemies are difficult to defeat alone in Chromie Time. Using party sync to bring others in to Chromie Time to help you will make them much easier to handle.
Due to a bug, you currently need to complete all invites prior to activating party sync. If you attempt to invite someone with party sync already active, the accept invite window will not appear for the person being invited. To make sure your invite works properly, turn off party sync before issuing the invite, then turn it back on afterwards.
You will not be able to activate party sync if you are currently in combat.
Class trial characters cannot party sync into Chromie Time.
Making Use of Chromie Time
A great way to take advantage of Chromie Time is to level up a character on an RP server or smaller CRZ server group to at least level 30 (the level that flying is unlocked). This character can be used to search for any rare spawn enemies or objects you wish, while having minimal competition and four different phases available to use.
The leveling changes added alongside Chromie Time make leveling much faster than before, so it shouldn't take too long to get to 30, even on a fresh new character. This time investment will typically pay off, as it will allow you to find various rares considerably faster.

The Hunt: Camping, Sharing, and More
Camping
Camping is the most popular and well-known way to farm for
波塞冬斯
. This method of farming involves sitting right on top of the spawn points themselves, and waiting for a spawn, sometimes based on a timer from a previous spawn. Although camping can be time-consuming, it usually requires very little active effort, and is the most reliable way to hunt down a Poseidus. It is best to choose servers with low populations and small CRZ groups to camp on. Camping/searching can be done in a group or alone, but in either case, the following is recommended:
Have a rare scanner addon such as
SilverDragon
as well as a keybound target macro.
While the macro doesn't need to be spammed at every instant, it helps to use it once in a while in order to alert you to any spawns you may have missed.
Search on a Druid
, as they have increased swim speed and instant flight form, making the travel through sea and sky more convenient.
Be courteous and respectful to your fellow campers!
If you are alone, try to pick spots that other people aren't already camping. Although some friendly competition is harmless, remember that there is a human being behind every (well, almost) player in the game.
Solo Hunting
If you choose to search alone, you can either sit at a single spawn point and wait, or you can swim or fly around to the different spawn points to check if
波塞冬斯
is up at any of them. Checking all the spawns periodically is a more effective way of tracking down a Poseidus on your own than camping a single spot is. On many RP realms, the zone is scarcely populated with other players. Solo hunting is best done on such servers, if possible.
Group Camping
Partying up with other players to camp is a safer way to camp, though it does require a certain degree of coordination and trust. Presumably, the other members of the group want
波塞冬斯
and its loot for themselves, so you must trust your group members to not kill it immediately if it spawns.
If Poseidus is killed by a party member when the other members are not at least nearby,
THEY WILL NOT GET LOOT!
So, choose your group carefully, and have a solid means of communication.
A good way to find camp groups is to to visit #eu-group-finder or #us-group-finder on the
WoW Secret Finding Discord
, depending on your region. There, you can post that you are looking for others to join your group or message people who have started groups.
Ideally, you should have one party member camping each of the five spawn points. If you are in a camp group and something spawns at your point, do your best to remain calm and keep a clear head. Proceed by tagging using one of the methods mentioned in the following section, and you should be able to secure loot for yourself while also allowing your party members to reach you and get their own tags.
Tagging
If you deal damage to an enemy or heal a party member who has dealt damage, you will successfully tag it. We will refer to this as a faction-restricted tag. With this form of tagging, you will always get loot once the mob is killed. Be sure to remain on the mob's aggro table until it dies, otherwise you will have to tag again. While it was possible in the past to tag
波塞冬斯
with a regular ability or weaponless punch, level 40+ characters currently deal too much damage for this to work without one-shotting the mob.
If you do not deal damage to an enemy and use something like the
水果篮
toy,
红色骑兵气枪
, or a taunt, you will
NOT
get a faction-restricted tag.
This means that if the enemy faction comes and kills
波塞冬斯
before you or a member of your faction does, you will lose out on loot.
To successfully share with your party and ensure everyone gets loot, the following is recommended:
Make sure none of the party members are on a class trial; Class trials cannot loot Poseidus!
, a level 15 Affliction Warlock talent, will do 1-2 damage while tagging the rare, as long as it has no DoTs ticking on it.
If you are on a cloth class (Priest, Warlock, or Mage), you will do a very small amount of damage if you are wearing no gear and melee the mob. If you do this with any other class, you WILL one-shot him at max level!
If you heal a party member who has tagged with the above methods, you will also have a faction-restricted tag.
In small groups or on low-population realms, it is often sufficient to use a taunt or CC ability to tag.
Groups often forgo the tagging altogether, and have one player kill Poseidus when everyone else is nearby. While these methods do not guarantee loot if the opposite faction kills the mob, it does loosen restrictions on what characters you can bring to camp. With less people to wait on for a tag, and less people in the zone overall, the chances of losing your loot are much lower.

Trivia and History
波塞冬斯的缰绳
used to sell for much more in the Auction House, often for hundreds of thousands of gold!
His spawn timer has been dramatically reduced over time, now only a fraction of what it used to be.
When Poseidus was first added to the game, he didn't drop a mount at all. This was very likely an oversight by Blizzard, as the mount was added to his loot table shortly afterwards, and his spawn time was lengthened.
