Swift Zhevra

The subject of this article was available exclusively through the Recruit A Friend system and was obtainable prior to patch 8.2.5. It is not currently available, but may return or be used as part of a special promotion.

Swift Zhevra was originally the first special mount that players could earn only through the Recruit-A-Friend program. Prior to April 27, 2010, it was possible to earn this mount as a reward bonus of the Recruit-A-Friend system, once the recruit had bought World of Warcraft and 60 days of playtime. This reward bonus was then replaced by the  [X-53 Touring Rocket].

In patch 5.4.1, the Recruit-A-Friend program was updated to include a choice of one mount from all current and previous Recruit-A-Friend mounts, and one companion from Asian-only promotions.

Mount Journal

Zhevras are rarely used as mounts in Azeroth due to their stubborn nature and tendency to bite.

Notes

The mount was mailed in-game to the selected character by Master Handler Sylvester. With the item is a rather unique letter:

Patch changes

• Patch 8.2.5 (2019-09-24): No longer obtainable.
  
• Patch 5.4.1 (2013-10-29): Available once again.
  
• Hotfix (2010-04-27): Time is running out for those who wish to claim their Zhevra, as the launch of the X-53 Touring Rocket is now scheduled for tomorrow, Tuesday, April 27! If you’ve fulfilled all of the Recruit-A-Friend requirements necessary to claim a mount now but choose not to claim the Zhevra, you will be able to claim the X-53 Touring Rocket instead once it launches. Sounds like they’re firing it up for a final test run now...
