Incognitro, the Indecipherable Felcycle is the ultimate reward offered during WoW's 20th Anniversary - requiring different achievements, titles, battle pets, and items found throughout Azeroth. There are still 4 pylons left to the solved on the clock, and this mount already seems borderline impossible to get as it requires having a ton of specific items.
If you're worried about the looming end to the WoW 20th Anniversary celebration event, don't fret too much. Blizzard has confirmed that Incognitro will still be obtainable after the event ends in January 2025.
With some patience, careful planning, and a few trips to the Auction House, Incognitro, the Indecipherable Felcycle can be yours! This complete guide covers the following:

The Detective Title. This title is obtained by completing two of the four Guest Relations achievements.
Perky Pug. This pet is the reward for the achievement "Looking for Multitudes." Use Dungeon Finder to finish random heroic dungeons until you've grouped up with 100 random people to receive the Perky Pug pet
The Dogg-Saron costume or the Yipp-Saron costume. These costumes for Perky Pug are sold by Vashti the Wandering Merchant in Azsuna
The Twitching Eyeball. This is a BFA toy that you can collect after finding the Azsharon Medallion. The Twitching Eyeball is the reward for completing the following questline in BFA:
The Fishing profession.
As many of the "lucky items" as possible. The Lucky Horseshoe, Lucky Tortollan Charm, Lucky Dragon's Claw, Lucky Rat's Tooth, Lucky Charm, Lucky Shirt, and Lucky Duck can be purchased from the Auction House.
A Scroll of Fel Binding from Vashti the Wandering Merchant (not needed if you're a warlock or can recruit one)
The Fledgling Warden Owl. This pet can be purchased if you have Revered reputation with the Wardens or can be bought from the Auction House.
3 of these pets (leveled to 25) - Spyragos, Nelthara, Wicker Pup, Taptaf, Terky, Gurgl, Glimr, Snowclaw Cub, Jenafur, Bumbles, Sun Darter Hatchling, or B'aal. Spyragos, Nelthara, and the Wicker Pup are three easy pets to get if you don't have any from the list.

6 O'Clock - Altars
There are 5 altars in Zul'gurub, each requiring players to present 3 items. Zul'gurub is located in Northern Stranglethorn. Be sure to bring everything you need so you don't have to go back and forth. Use the Torch of Pyrreth at each altar to see the NPC. You will know the NPC is pleased when they say "The spirit departs, satisfied with your acquisitions."
Once all 5 NPCs have been appeased, use the Starry-Eyed Goggles to see a spectral chest. Loot the chest for the Ancient Shaman Blood to activate the 6th pylon.
Altar Requirements:
Blood Altar - Any mount with "blood" in the name, any pet with the blood in the name, and the Throbbing Blood Orb toy
Corrupt Altar - Any mount with "corrupt" in the name, any pet with corrupt in the name, the transmog Cloak of Overwhelming Corruption
Lust Altar - Sister of Temptation pet, Steamy Romance Novel Kit toy, fully naked for the transmog or under the effects of Moroes' Famous Polish
Sin Altar - Sinheart pet, Bondable Sinstone toy, any Venthyr Sinstone cloak transmog
Void Altar - One of the void pets (Lesser Voidcaller, Voidwiggler, Sir Shady Mrrgglton Junior), Shadowy Disguise or Void Totem toy, any cloak that looks like the Cloak of the Black Void

Go to the Isle of Watchers in Azsuna and summon the Fledgling Warden Owl. Interact with the Owl of the Watchers statues until you collect a red, purple, green, and blue buff. Your owl pet will get a white spell effect on its head when you've successfully gotten all four buffs.
Enter the Vault of the Wardens dungeon and defeat every boss. After defeating Cordana Felsong, pick up the Light of Elune and go back to the first boss's room (Tirathon Saltheri). A hidden room on the way to Tirathon will now be open. Bring the Light of Elune orb and the Owl pet to the center of the hidden room and a Sentry Statue will spawn. Loot a Sentry Statue that will go into your inventory.
Head back to Glazer's boss room and put the Sentry Statue in the center of the ledge that overlooks the staircases. This will spawn a puzzle. The point of the puzzle is to lower all the statues down into their tile. Once complete, you will get the Warden's Mirror, completing the 7th pylon.
8 O'Clock - Rats
To unlock the 8th pylon, you will need to move around statues to solve 7 different puzzles. Put both the Warden's Mirror and the Ancient Shaman Blood in the Enigma Machine inside of Ratts' Revenge and click BEGIN and then SUBMIT.
Then, search all of Karazhan Catacombs for Rats. (Catacomb Rats do not count.) Kill every Rat and count how many there are. The rats don't respawn until it's time for the next puzzle, so killing them is an easy way to make sure you didn't miss any.
Depending on how many rats there were in the catacombs, move the statues to the pressure plates according to this table:
# of Rats | Lock #1 | Lock #2 | Lock #3 | Lock #4 | Lock #5 | Lock #6 | Lock #7 |
1 | 1 on 1 | 1 on 2 | 1 on 3 | 1 on 4 | 1 on 5 | 1 on 6 | 1 on 7 |
2 | 1 on 2 | 1 on 4 | 1 on 6 | 2 on 1 | 2 on 3 | 2 on 5 | 2 on 7 |
3 | 1 on 3 | 1 on 6 | 2 on 2 | 2 on 5 | 3 on 1 | 3 on 4 | 1 on 1 |
4 | 1 on 4 | 2 on 1 | 2 on 5 | 3 on 2 | 3 on 6 | 1 on 4 | 2 on 1 |
5 | 1 on 5 | 2 on 3 | 3 on 1 | 3 on 6 | 1 on 5 | 2 on 3 | 3 on 1 |
6 | 1 on 6 | 2 on 5 | 3 on 4 | 1 on 4 | 2 on 3 | 3 on 2 | 1 on 2 |
7 | 1 on 7 | 2 on 7 | 1 on 1 | 2 on 1 | 3 on 1 | 1 on 2 | 2 on 2 |
8 | 2 on 1 | 3 on 2 | 1 on 4 | 2 on 5 | 3 on 6 | 2 on 1 | 3 on 2 |
9 | 2 on 2 | 3 on 4 | 1 on 7 | 3 on 2 | 1 on 5 | 2 on 7 | 1 on 3 |
10 | 2 on 3 | 3 on 6 | 2 on 3 | 3 on 6 | 2 on 3 | 3 on 6 | 2 on 3 |
You have to complete the puzzle successfully 7 times in a row to unlock the 8th pylon. If you mess up, you'll have to restart and complete all 7 locks again. Make sure to remove all statues from the pressure plates before starting a new lock. They will not reset automatically!
Unlocking 7 mechanisms will complete the 8th pylon and unlock the the vault north of the orb room.
Where is the purple felcycle?
With the release of patch 11.0.5 and the WoW 20th Anniversary Celebration, three different colors of Felcycles were data mined, one purple, one green, and one red.
We now know that the Hateforged Blazecycle is part of the Mountain Dew Game Fuel promotion for WoW's 20th Anniversary, costing 600 points. Read more about what Mountain Dew products are included in the promotion to get the Hateforged Blazecycle.
There was also a third purple Felcycle data mined back in September 2024, but Blizzard hasn't revealed anything about the third Fel Reaver Motocycle so far. This seems to be the color that everyone is asking about, but nothing has been released yet.
All we know about the purple Fel Reaver Motorcycle is that players will be able to get it as a part of the WoW 20th Anniversary Celebration, which is going until January 2025. This article will be updated as soon as Blizzard releases more information to keep it saved for later.
