The Mirage Boat isn’t just another mount in Where Winds Meet—it’s a floating palace that turns you into a server-wide celebrity. But here’s the catch: unlocking this prestigious water vessel requires serious dedication and resources. Let’s break down everything you need to know about this game-changing mount.

What Makes the Mirage Boat Special in Where Winds Meet?
Unlike standard horses that roam the land, the Mirage Boat serves as a premium water mount with unique server-wide event capabilities. It’s not just about personal travel—owning this boat lets you host the Painted Cruise Event, where players across your entire server can join for rewards and social activities.
The boat adds 10,000 Elegance points to your stats and comes with the exclusive Celestial Mortal outfit. Plus, event participants can temporarily borrow any outfits you own during cruise events, making it a true social centerpiece.
Unlock Requirements: What You Need
| Requirement | Details | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Mirage Torn Pages | 170 total pages needed | Draw Shop Exchange |
| Harmonic Cores | Exchange 1:1 for Pages | Celestial Draw Banner |
| Drop Rate | 0.747% per pull | Gacha System |
| Average Pulls | ~23,000 pulls required | Based on probability |
| Estimated Cost | $40,000-$50,000 | Through Echo Beads bundles |
Step-by-Step Unlock Process
Start by accessing the Exchange Diagram option in the bottom-left corner, which directs you to NPC Wen Shou. Here’s the complete process:
- Collect Harmonic Cores from the Celestial Draw banner (gacha system)
- Exchange Cores for Mirage Torn Pages at a 1:1 ratio in the Draw Shop
- Gather 170 total pages through accumulated pulls
- Visit Wen Shou NPC and select “Mirage Dreamweaver Blueprint Exchange”
- Complete the exchange to unlock your Mirage Boat
The harsh reality? Reaching 170 Harmonic Cores requires approximately 23,000 pulls on average, translating to roughly 3,680,000 Echo Beads—which explains the eye-watering price tag.
The Mirage Boat Event Experience
Boat owners can host two types of events:
Fixed Schedule Events: The Mirage Boat Event occurs server-wide every Sunday evening and Monday morning, with times varying by region.
Owner-Initiated Events: Players who own the boat can trigger custom cruise events at any time by providing funding. The rewards available depend on how much the owner invests.
During events, participants earn Fortune Points through activities and minigames. Earning 1,000 Fortune Points allows you to claim event rewards, which are automatically sent to your mail if you leave before collecting them.
Is It Worth the Investment?
Let’s be honest—the Mirage Boat is not free-to-play friendly and is locked behind the gacha Draw system. It’s purely a luxury status symbol rather than a gameplay necessity.
For water travel, your lightness skills like Meteor Flight (unlocked through the Afterglow side quest) offer more versatility. However, the boat provides stamina-free water crossing and works in zones where lightness skills are restricted.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can free-to-play players realistically unlock the Mirage Boat?
A: Unfortunately, no. While you can earn some Harmonic Cores through normal gameplay and events, consistently reaching the required 170 pages is virtually impossible without significant monetary investment. The gacha system’s low drop rate makes this mount exclusively for players willing to spend substantial amounts.
Q: What happens if I join a Mirage Boat event but don’t own the boat?
A: You can fully participate in any Mirage Boat event as a guest passenger. Earn Fortune Points through onboard activities and minigames, then claim rewards once you hit 1,000 points. You’ll also get to temporarily wear outfits owned by the boat’s owner during the event, giving you a taste of premium cosmetics without owning them.
