hey guys it's a new patch so we have a new secret mount to get in this video I'll show you how to get the hivemind mount this is quite the unique one you don't write a brain you are the brain and other people who have the mount as well can click on you and sort of melt with you as a passenger and also increase your movement speed by 10% per person up to four people max for all of these secrets I always give credit where it's due and as always the great secret finding discord or the ones to uncover this mount and this video itself was made using a guide from Warcraft secrets calm I'm here you can find fully detailed guides not only this but a bunch of other mounts and pets and toys all sorts of stuff and in text form if you prefer that format before heading out you will want to coordinates add-on because you may be going against a timer depending on your route I recommend TomTom and you'll also want the paste add-on to quickly paste in all of these waypoints I'll have both the add-ons and the waypoints all in the description for you you may also want the hive mind house of origination puzzle helper for one of the puzzles I'll talk more about that and when we get to it and you'll also want access to a seahorse mountain for the best years own so you'll either have to do a few quests there or just pick a character that you know you have it on already you also need about 2500 gold in total before you start this and you should turn off or mode as well because you don't want to have to deal with PvP and while you're doing all of this of course your first step is to head on over to Shattrath City in the Burning Crusade and visit the NPC grift located right here on the map you need to buy the talisman of true treasure tracking from him it costs 35 gold without reputation discounts you'll want this amulet equipped throughout the entirety of the secret hunting after equipping it you'll notice some items going on the table behind him a fish a feather a pyramid and a letter with only the letter being clickable each one of these represents two different colored monocles and to get the mound you'll eventually need a party with five people with four of them each having a unique monocle so out of the four puzzles I'm about to explain you can try and pick the one that appeals to you the most and find three other people with the other colors you can do all four if you want but it's not necessary so the colors are green blue red and yellow in order from easiest to hardest so let's start with the green monocle first this one is very straightforward because the puzzle is the same for everyone the feather that you saw in the table include players to the sky rich dungeon located right here and the spires of arak and Draenor enter this dungeon on any difficulty and make your way to the final boss to your left facing the bus will be a console with a set of instructions and to the right of that will be a console with five buttons clicking on the middle activates the puzzle and clicking the four adjacent ones moves the Sun throughout the puzzle and changes the color of the various nodes you can always click the middle one again to reset it if you want someone translated this to the following steps click the one in the middle and then click these orbs in the following sequence the puzzle is the same for everyone so this should work for you after completing it chess spawns in front of you and that holds the green monocle like I said this is where you can stop if you want if you can find four more people with three of them having the blue red and yellow ones you can skip to the end I'm gonna go over all of them anyways though since I imagine there will be a ton of people with the easy ones the next easiest one though in my opinion is the blue monocle which is the letter sequence returning to grifter clicking on the letter reveals the following message the key factor in successful wasp ignition is a solid ad campaign once you have TomTom and paste installed do slash paced show and paste in the following way points again I'll have all of this stuff in the description for easy copy pasting basically we need to collect a bunch of different letters in order so just follow these and pick come up one by one note that you do need to click on all of these to get the monocle he can't skip around or anything so the next one is located in high mountain in the prep foot compound how'd they know that well taking all of the words with the capitalized first letter we have the factor wasp in ignition and add these words form an anagram for the anticipation for death wing and if you remember in Legion there's a chain regarding death wing here so it makes sense they eventually tracked down this letter to a tent on top of this box at coordinates 57 27 this one reads of Olive guys cures for nature the most liberating is death using the same method these words form an anagram for the seat of the guardian so naturally care is an is the next stop specifically at the old level 70 raid version which is the ground entrance right here you find it in medivh scores on his chair located right after the chess even after completing it take a right and go up the spiral staircase and into his room and you'll see his desk at the end here you are still able to solo this there's plenty of guides on YouTube covering that already if you have trouble though I'll include my run in the description if you want to see exactly how I did it along with my route to reach this room since this place is kind of a maze this one reads i sat dumbfounded watching as the most subtle ran I'm reached for the cheese a third time in under an hour it forms bramble undead which leads us to the razor fend downs instance located right here in the Thousand Needles look for this giant bore skull and just keep going through here you then want to make your way to the final boss at the top of the spire and to the left on this kradin will be the next letter missus sin will accompany you down the longest streets of the underworld and this is an anagram for the mistress of the nest which lead players to the Mount Hyjal zone right here on the map at the top of this tree in this room on a table to the right is the next letter the elite champions will rule the world with the mightiest FC this creates the derelict flow so the next stop is the iron wall dam at the edge of Icecrown app I had on one of these spikes is the next letter which reads re the codecs of mastering sine waves acts residence is the solution so the next stop is Pandaria specifically the news out temple in the town long steps you can find it right next to this little shrine this one reads mice looks so sad when they have a cleft lip hoping you succeed Anna this one is an anagram for the pinnacle of magic which led us to the Borean tundra in the cold area area way up high you can now find a chest which contains our next monocle and next fourth red monocle we have the vast year trading sequence this is sold by the npcs irfan lemur gotten 4/5 each of captured cavitation bubbles potent gastropod gloops and scintillating merlok skin lotion basically there are a bunch of fish vendors spread all over the zone and you have to trade items between them to get all of these they have limited durations though so you have to do them in such a way that they don't expire by the time you collect all of them this is where the TomTom and paste add-ons will be really handy here and you'll also want 2500 gold at least 10 inventory spaces and at least 50 minutes of free uninterrupted time before starting so the first step is to go into your add-ons menu and TomTom and disable the Waypoint Auto clearing feature you do this by setting the range to zero next open up your paste menu by doing / paste show and put in the following six waypoints your starting point is to buy 500 seashells from surf in Lee and the shimmering expand zone before we begin though I should share some tips to buy multiple items at a time just shift-click them and note that it does camp out at 255 even if you select 500 so don't get fooled like me and think that you got 500 only to realize halfway to the next vendor you only have half of that so just by two stacks of 250 as for the fastest way to travel between these NPCs I chose to return to the surface towards my next target at a 45-degree angle and once I hit the surface I switched to a flying mount I did this mainly because there can be some things that you have to go around in the water I wanted to be able to go full-out around and sort of read ahead to my guide and look at my waypoints and take inventory of my items to make sure I'm on track if you're in the water you have to go around things and dodge whale sharks which just distracts you I'm not sure if it's faster or slower but I completed the whole thing like this no problem so I imagine it'll be fine for you as well as long as you have the fastest flying speed like I do another tip is that these NPCs can be kind of tricky to spot sometimes some things I did to make this easier was typing slash target the NPC name and then mark them with the raid marker it just helps tracking them down a bit since you're basically looking for fish amongst a ton of other fish it also helps to make sure that you have your target shown on your mini-map note that if it's above or below you it'll show you with a little arrow and lastly you may notice a little arrow on the bottom of your screen this is built into the TomTom add-on just ignore it because it may be out of order so buy 500 seashells from Finley at the coordinates I provided and your next stop is Southwest to the abyssal Death Zone to find the volatile violet scale you can find him near the sea floor from him by 100 cavity free great shark teeth and your next stop is the Manta stargazer to the northeast you can find him near the surface of the water and from him he need to buy 50 razor real larvas next he want to head southeast little welly in the same zone this time closer to the sea floor and from him purchased 250 well-fed dr. fish and next you wanna head west to the abyssal depths own to the gloomy bluefin again near the bottom of the ocean and buy ten freshly molted crab skins next go northeast to old fish breath and the kelp thar forest he's located about midway to the ocean floor and from him he need fifty glitter Gill glitters which lasts for about thirty minutes at this point you should right-click any Waypoint on your map and select clear all weight points and paste in the following six fresh ones this is just Good Housekeeping so you don't have a hundred green dots to chase and again I'll have all of this clearly labeled in the description our first stop for this group is once again stir Finlay southwest of us this time by just eighty seashells and head west a bit to the gloomy blue fin once again near the sea floor from him you need to giant and giant toenail clippings next head Northwest to the little carp again near the floor and from him and get four makyura eyes then it's southwest to the volatile violets kill again for one accidentally severed a seahorse fin then it's East to the Crimson anchor fish for three shiny serpent scales this guy moves around a lot so you'll be better off just spam clicking instead of shift clicking after that though you wanna head north to the Manta stargazer near the surface and buy 40 symbiotic plankton and from here we go west of Finlay to buy five scintillating relaxed skin lotions this is the first of three items that we need for the monocle but the next two are much faster we got this one first because it lasts for an hour so now that we're done with this grouping once again clear all of your waypoints and paste in the following five fresh ones from sir Finlay buy 300 seashells total again being careful that it caps on ad to 155 per purchase next you want to head east to old fish breath again this time by 30 ventus black squid inks and next you want to head all the way south west to the black fish this one is across the map and it'll be the tightest window I did my strategy of returning to the surface and auto flying and I had over a minute left on my timer so as long as you don't make a wrong turn or anything you should be good to go he's located on the sea floor again and from him he wanted by 30 super slick eel slimes and next you want to head east to the volatile violet scale again and purchased three rock and crusted wall shells from there go north to the little carp and buy six potent gastropod gloops that's her second item so head back to surf Finley to the east clear all of your waypoints once again and paste in these five fresh ones you need to buy a whopping 1,500 shells this time it's best to do it in six groups of 250 so from here you want to head southeast little welly and purchase 300 very pretty corals next go to old fish breath to the north and purchase one hundred iridescent shimmery skins and next up is a crimson anchor fish a ways to the south again and this time you want to grab 20 luxurious luck scales from again I recommend just spam clicking since he moves around so much and next up we head all the way back to the black fish to the west you need to get five captured cavitation bubbles from him and the last step is to return to Finley to the Northeast buy your monocle and that's it a little hectic but it's not too bad as long as you have about 53 minutes and the last one is the yellow monocle the pyramid behind grifter led players to the halls of origination dungeon located in the ultimate own make your way to the elevator right here and click the orb through the floor to activate a puzzle head to the northern path to find that a secret staircase has opened up which grants you access to this room here you'll find a bunch of lights and refractors the goal is to make all of the lights the same color and you click on the refractors to change the color and they do different things the Plus Ones change everything in the line through adjacent tiles until it hits another crystal and the crosses do the same in a cross formation from the crystal and the circle does everything around it it's basically a giant lights-out game there is an add-on for this I mentioned earlier called the hive mind halls puzzle helper you basically just goes square by square in putting what each spot is and once you finish it you click the Go button and it'll tell you what pylons to click and how many times it's kind of the wussy route I took it because I'm horrible at these types of games so unfortunately I don't really have any advice other than just use the add-on I guess people like starting from the edges like a puzzle and they find it easier to do it that way personally I get frustrated and I just rage click everything so I just use the add-on myself an even easier way though is that once you solve the puzzle you can just invite people to loot the chests so you can try getting it that way I'm not sure if that's intended or not and if it'll be fixed but as of this video it's possible apparently if you are successful though that just will appear in the middle but be careful not to click the orb again or else you'll just reset everything but those are all for monocles if you look at the flavor text for each one you'll have noticed that they're inscribed with the sequence of letters if you write out the Alpha bit twice and then from that string removing these inscribed letters you're left with this string of letters which rearrange to spell out wild withered so the next step is to visit the sir Mar zone and for this you'll need 5 people like I mentioned I highly recommend to getting on voice comes as the next steps require a lot of coordination and you need to be able to sit down for a while since this is the home stretch and you'll be getting them out as a group just trick your group finder to see if anyone's on this part as of this video there are a ton of them since the secret is still fresh so to sum it up there are four special wizard within the zone with glowing eyes that match your monocle colors red Rikai at 72 63 blue blamin at 57 29 green Gillooly at 20 47 and yellow your LAN at 44 82 these are all normally friendly to you unless you have the corresponding monocle color equipped there's also a house at coordinates 41 69 that has a room blocked by four colored beams what you need to do is kill all for these withered at once and once they drop to 0% they channel a spell that makes these beams dissipate so you need to have one person posted at each of these wizard and one at the door the way we did in was we brought all of them to 15% and then we stopped DPS make sure that you take off any gear or talents that proc damaged since you don't want to kill them too quickly once we had all of ours at 15% we would start at DBM timer and once that reaches zero you all need to DPS or where they're down to get them to cast that spell at which point the person in the room runs in this has to be done as a group and like I said voice comms are vital now unfortunately I was one of the people killing so I don't have footage of the room hopefully this screenshot will suffice for you though for whoever is inside the room you need to find an object called the lost cat toy right behind some pillows next to a bookcase you also need to have that treasure finding amulet equipped to interact with it once you click in you'll take some arcane damage and get teleported out you need to write down how much damage you take because the SERPs has a code just go into your combat log if you missed in under what happened to me and type it in party chat to save it it should be a four or five digit number so once you have that your next step is to head to the court of Stars dungeon as a group it doesn't matter what difficulty you said it at note though from here if your group dissipates for whatever reason you will have to redo the wizard step with a new group if you'd like to try it again so again be in it for the long haul here right outside the second boss in this house you'll find an NPC named lady Shatan around her she has five cats wandering about and that's mrs. fluffy muffins shadow mule ash and Bella and when you pet him they get a buff that stacks that number that she saved earlier is the code for how many times you have to pet each cat in my run it was six seven zero nine four the first number is tied to mrs. fluffy muttons the second two shadow the third two meal the fourth to ash and the fifth to Bella in that order note that if you got a four digit number that means you just treat the first digit as a zero so in our case we needed to pet mrs. fluffy muffin six times shadow seven new zero ash nine and Bella four times the buff only lasts for 15 ish seconds so the way to do this is to assign each group member to a cat and the person who has the highest number starts first and then the other members sort of weight so the Buffs lineup so in my case since I have a six and the highest had nine I waited until he pet him three times and then I started with mine the person who had four would have waited for five pets like I said they just all need to have the correct stacks at once and with a 15 second window it's not too bad it doesn't need to be exact once you're successful though purple orb appears and clicking on it will teleport you to a room with the platform in front of you'll hopping on it will spawn and be spawn other platforms and the goal is to get all five members to the other side this is also something that's the same for everyone so there does exist a set of steps then you can just follow if you don't feel like figuring it out for yourself again I'll have all of this in the description for you you can also click the red arrow to reset which brings you back to the beginning so what you want to do is just assign everyone a number and have one person sort of coordinate everything I took the lead for this one as number one so the first step for me was forward twice and then I said number two on discord go forward left and forward and so on note that you all start from the middle platform it's not too bad if you follow those instructions obviously coms are gonna be hugely helpful here typing it out is just asking for trouble once you've finished the last step and everyone's in position go ahead and click the red arrow to dismount and all five of you walked up to the door to reach the final step here you'll find a bridge that teleports you back if you step in the purple stuff and a floating platform going from one end to the other it's basically that famous puzzle where you need to get people across the river using certain rule sets I think a popular one is that family of six going across with a child that can be left alone an adult has to operate the raft and the criminal can't be left alone with anyone and so on well for this all five of you need to get across and only certain people are compatible with each other anyone can go on the platform but halfway through you'll get scanned and proceed if you're compatible and get sent back if not go ahead and assign everyone with the mark and open up a notepad file because need to figure out who can cross with who it is kind of buggy trying to get on we found if you go on this mark right here sort of three steps down you should be able to do it pretty reliably so the way you do this is to first find the person who's compatible with everyone this is someone who could ride with each member of your raid and a pair of tool so you'll want to keep trying groups of two until you find the one person who can go with all four other members one by one keeping track of which combinations didn't work in a notepad or something in our case our escort turned out to be green he can't go solo but he can go with any other member and next we kind of brute force our way to find a combination of three people who can make it across with each other in our case it was green red and skull we did this just by trying groups of three over and over and marking down which ones didn't work it wasn't too bad as there's not a ton of calm nations so you have these three players cross and have one of the non escorts hop off at the end the escort always stays on because he sort of ferries everyone around he's the least restricted player the platform goes back to the beginning and your other non escort jumps off and one of the people not in that special group of three hops on they cross back and the non escort jumps off and the first person to cross the bridge hops back on which is me in this case so we're heading back to the start we did have an error here so please excuse the jump cut but what you want to do is to have that third member of the original three hop back on here so we can cross again at the end have just one non escort and jump off and we loop back to the beginning I hop off and a trade places with the only person there and once they reach the end the non escort jumps off once more and the member of the special three hops on so now we're in a situation where two people out of the compatible three are on their way back with that magic third waiting at the beginning so that person hops on and now all three of you can cross if this makes sense to you great hopefully I explained it pretty clearly if not please check out that link in the description where you have everything in text along with handy diagrams and whatnot but that's pretty much it from here you just each stand in these purple circles click the hive mind and you should all get it and that's the hive mind secret in its entirety quite intricate as you can tell they're really getting more and more complex as time goes on and it's pretty fun personally some are out of my league so I just followed guides but the ones that could solve we're really rewarding and cool I hope that this video was helpful for you and it gives you an easier time than what I had remember to re-equip your heart of Azeroth before your next grade too by the way here's a mount again and all of its glory and our little group photo that we took good job team again hats off to the secret finding discord Warcraft secrets and everyone involved all credit goes to them I'm just a guy putting things in video form for you so check out those links in the description if you'd like to join them for the next time I hope you found the video helpful like it if you liked it and I'll see you in the next one peace farewell for now mortals we hope you enjoyed today's video see you again soon [Music]
