Slime Cat Mount

Looks like they’ve found a way to give us the Slime Cat after all!!

J igglesworth Sr. - Slime Cat Mount For Completing All Season 4 Fated Raids

In previous Patch 9.2.5 PTR builds, an icon and slime texture hinting at the Gooey Slimesaber mount from the free Shadowlands mount poll. Now, a source for the Slime Cat has been added: Complete all Season 4 Fated raids to earn the J igglesworth Sr. mount!

The J igglesworth Sr. name is very likely a reference to [Mr. J igglesworth](https://www.wowhead.com/npc=174226/mr- j igglesworth), one of the slime cat NPCs required to be pet for the achievement Nine Afterlives. Unfortunately, no Slime Cat mount model has been added in this build, but here’s the icon and slimy texture previously mined!

Unfortunately this means I now have to take part in Season 4 :rofl:

I can’t post the link to the article because it contains a word the wow forums find offensive, I also had to space out the actually name so that the filter would allow it, so the best I can do is this:-

I have no idea why that is offensive :frowning:

Curious does completing raids via LFR count for this achievement.

LFR is more diff than Normal. Try it. After wipe for the 5th time at Halondrus cuz ppl never go for the ball or half of the raid die falling to sylvanas encounter (me included) you will understand.

looks like mythic gets teleports, heroic a title and normal and maybe lfr the mount. Could be that every week another lfr raid is available to queue up which is a bit more difficult with this raid affixe stuff. Or they exclude lfr and we have to do all 3 raids again which is kinda boring.

Complete all three Fated raids in Shadowlands Season 4.

I’m hoping LFR will be included as the affixes will apply to LFR. I guess we’ll wait to see more info on this.

For now, since I don’t raid a lot, I completed Denathrius and Sylvanas in LFR and Jailer on normal. Doing LFR runs (didn’t have a guild) was very painful.

LFR is included in the affixes according to this article:-

Fated is a new raid affix introduced in Shadowlands Season 4. It will be active in a different Shadowlands raid each week, resulting in loot drops being upgraded to a higher item level.

The Adventure Guide shows you which raid is currently tagged as Fated. That raid will come with a special affix and offer better loot from the remaining Shadowlands raids The affix introduces something called Fated Powers.

It’s important to note that Fated also applies to LFR.

Now, let’s look at Fated Powers in more detail. Currently, we were able to datamine 4 Fated Powers that will be active in a Fated raid of the week.

Fated Powers

  • Fated Power: Chaotic EssenceFated Power: Chaotic Essence - Summons a Chaotic Essence which casts Chaotic Destruction, inflicting 800 Cosmic damage to all players if successful. Upon interaction, the essence becomes hostile and instead continuously manifests Chaotic Motes. These motes channel 2 Cosmic damage into targeted players every 0.5 sec. for 3 sec. When defeated each mote splits into additional motes. After 15 sec the Chaotic Essence dissipates, granting all players 2% increased damage done, 2% increased healing done, and 2% absorbs done for 30 sec. This effect stacks for each Chaotic Mote slain.
  • Fated Power: Protoform BarrierFated Power: Protoform Barrier - Protects the caster, reducing damage taken by 5% for 15 sec. This effect stacks every 1 sec. Upon removal this barrier manifests as an attackable enemy, sharing a 1,400 absorb shield with all other enemies for 15 sec. Upon expiration the barrier shatters, inflicting 80 Cosmic damage to all players. If broken this effect backfires, inflicting all damage done to each enemy during the barrier as Cosmic damage, and additionally grants all players 10%-20% increased damage done for 20 sec.
  • Fated Power: Reconfiguration EmitterFated Power: Reconfiguration Emitter - Taints a player, inflicting 15 Cosmic damage every 1 sec. for 15 sec. Upon removal this power manifests as an attackable enemy, which continuously casts. Successful casts inflict 40 Cosmic damage to all players. While present the caster grants all players 5% increased damage done, 15% increased damage taken, and 15% increased healing done. This effect is disabled while the caster is unable to act.
  • Fated Power: Replicating EssenceFated Power: Replicating Essence - Ensnares afflicted players, reducing movement speed by 15% and inflicting 15 Cosmic damage every 1 sec. for 5 sec. Upon removal this essence patterns itself as 2/4 attackable enemies, which continuously channels 2 Cosmic damage every 0.5 sec. into targeted players for 4 sec. Upon defeat grants all players 10% increased damage done and 10% increased healing and absorbs done for 10 sec. Upon reaching full power, this essence replicates itself into 2 |4additional copy:additional copies;, exhausting itself preventing additional replication and no longer grants players any beneficial effects upon defeat. Exhausted Essences continuously channels 5 Cosmic damage every 1 sec. into multiple targeted players for 4 sec.

Given the apathy to LFR from Blizzard and the inevitable howls from the great and good of “oh how entitled the lfr players are to demand a mount!!” (completely unaware again of the irony) I am not expecting Blizzard to allow filthy LFR players a somewhat decent reward.

The anima is more than enough.

Edit nm just read LFR will be included.

Im very pleasantly surprised.
