A Bound Shadehound boost, or Bound Shadehound carry, works through one of the longest secrets in the Maw. The mount journal explains the idea: this shadehound was created by deciphering and performing powerful runic magic, and it stays bound to whoever cast it. Every step of that magic is something the character has to do.
It begins with Ve'nari, the broker in the Maw. The character needs level 60 and Appreciative standing with her, plus access to Perdition Hold and the Beastwarrens. From her come the Stygia Dowser and later the Partial Rune Codex, paid in Stygia, and the dowser is used to drain Stygia Nexus nodes for Stygia Dust and Stygia Sliver.
On the Altar of Domination in Perdition Hold sits a Runed Chest. Its rune puzzle takes four swaps, and solving it yields the Crumbling Stele. With the codex bought, the three Rune Codex Pages for binding, forging and souls are gathered next.
The binding ends at the Binding Altar in Cocyrus with the quest Feral Shadehound, which adds the mount to the collection. Our order covers the puzzle and the steps around it; the character should be at the level cap, and the order lists Appreciative reputation with Ve'nari. Other mounts are in the mounts section.
