How to get the Shellack mount in World of Warcraft Dragonflight

World of Warcraft has had cosmetic rewards for certain difficult achievements for a while now. Shellack is one such reward because to get him you will have to complete the Glory of the Dragonflight Hero achievement. This won’t be easy, because it follows the tradition of other similar achievements from previous expansions. You’ll have to do certain tasks (25 of them to be exact), each of which is an achievement by itself, during Mythic dungeon runs, and only once you’ve completed them all will you get the achievement and Shellack as rewards.

I have been into gaming since the days of Sega Mega Drive and Amiga. Over the years in gaming, I have raided at a high level, completed rare achievements, coached other players, and written about games since 2016. Whether it’s been clicking heads; developing cities, colonies, and empires; or commanding parties of adventurers; I’ve always prided myself on being able to understand the underlying mechanics of games. Outside of gaming, I enjoy a variety of activities and hobbies, including playing with my pup Astra, working out, as well as crafting, painting, and leatherwork.
