Mythic+ Progression Context
The Timelost Saddle is what makes this boost structurally different from Master/Hero/Legend. Instead of locking you to one specific seasonal mount, the Saddle is an exchange token redeemable for any Keystone Master or Keystone Legend mount from past seasons. For collectors who missed Dragonflight Season mounts, Shadowlands Mythic+ seasonal mounts, or earlier Keystone Master reward cycles, the Saddle fills those collection gaps in a single order. Combined with Calamitous Carrion and Convalescent Carrion unlocking during the push, a single Myth order delivers three mounts minimum — two current-season + one exchange pick from the past.
BuyTheWin handles Keystone Myth with a pre-built elite Mythic+ team executing timed Mythic+16-17 keys across the full 8-dungeon rotation. The push is completable in 1 day when scheduled with a full-availability team, or splittable across multiple sessions if preferred. Piloted is the fastest option; Self-play requires 265+ ilvl gear floor to contribute acceptably to the high-key runs. For players who already have some dungeons at 425+ score, partial orders are supported — you pay only for dungeons still below the Myth threshold, reducing cost significantly versus full 8-dungeon runs.
Mythic+ Ladder Comparison — Master to Myth
Midnight Season 1 introduces a 4-tier Mythic+ rating ladder, with Keystone Myth as the new top tier added in patch 12.0.5. Each rating milestone unlocks distinct rewards and requires progressively higher key level execution.
Tier | Rating | Key Level | Signature Reward | Completion Rate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Keystone Master | 2000 | Mythic+7+ | Calamitous Carrion mount | ~25% of max-level players |
Keystone Hero | 2500 | Mythic+8-9 | Dungeon teleports + gear | Smaller population |
Keystone Legend | 3000 | Mythic+10+ | Convalescent Carrion mount | Rare — few reach naturally |
Keystone Myth | 3400 | Mythic+16-17 | Timelost Saddle (exchange token) | Elite-tier — smallest population |
Keystone Myth represents a meaningful step above Legend — 400 rating points plus the jump from Mythic+10 to Mythic+16-17 keys requires substantially stronger execution across mechanics, damage, and healing checks. The Timelost Saddle exchange reward is structurally unique in this ladder — all other tiers award fixed mounts, while Saddle redeems for any past-season Keystone Master or Legend mount of the buyer's choice.
Why Timelost Saddle Is the Most Valuable Mount Reward
The Timelost Saddle mechanic changes the value proposition for Mythic+ pushing. Previous seasonal mounts (Calamitous Carrion for Keystone Master, Convalescent Carrion for Legend) are one-and-done: complete the achievement during the active season or lose access permanently. Timelost Saddle inverts that logic — instead of adding one mount to your collection, it lets you retroactively acquire any mount from past seasons you missed.
Example scenarios where Timelost Saddle matters most: — Missed Dragonflight S3 Keystone Master mount — players who returned to WoW after the season ended previously couldn't earn that mount retroactively. Timelost Saddle lets you pick it now.
Missed Shadowlands KSL mount series — entire expansion's worth of missed elite Mythic+ rewards become re-earnable through a single Myth push.
Collecting specific aesthetic picks — if you want a particular past mount's visual specifically (not just any Mythic+ mount), Saddle targets exactly that mount.
This exchange mechanic compounds the Myth push's value because it addresses collection gaps that no other activity in WoW can fill. Raid retroactive mounts have Black Market and Heroic Warfronts; old PvP mounts cycle through the Trading Post occasionally; but retired Mythic+ seasonal mounts have no other acquisition path. Timelost Saddle is effectively the only bridge to retired Keystone Master and Legend mounts that exists currently.
Patch 12.0.5 — Why Myth Exists
Keystone Myth was introduced specifically in patch 12.0.5 to address two design goals. First, the top of the Mythic+ ladder needed a challenge beyond Keystone Legend for elite players who were completing 3000 rating routinely each season without pushing further. Second, mount collectors needed a catch-up mechanism for retired seasonal mounts that previously had no acquisition path. Myth solves both — it's genuinely harder than Legend (by a meaningful margin, not a token rating bump) and the Timelost Saddle reward specifically targets the collector pain point.
For buyers specifically: the Myth push is time-sensitive in the same way that Calamitous Carrion and Convalescent Carrion are. Keystone Myth is a Midnight Season 1 achievement — when Season 2 launches, the Myth tier resets, the Timelost Saddle acquisition window closes, and any Saddles not yet redeemed expire. This creates urgency around both completing Myth during the S1 window AND redeeming the Saddle for the chosen past-season mount before the season ends.
About the Keystone Myth Boost

What's the difference between Keystone Myth and Keystone Legend?
Myth requires 3400 rating via M+16-17; Legend requires 3000 via M+10+. Myth has much harder mechanics, tighter margins. Legend fixed mount vs Myth flexible Saddle exchange for collector backfill.
Do I need 265 ilvl gear for Self-play?
Yes, 265 ilvl minimum for M+16-17 contributions; damage checks are tight at that tier. DPS spec recommended. Piloted has no gear floor; Piloted is the right choice if below 265.
