Where It Drops

Swift White Hawkstrider drops from Kael'thas Sunstrider, an encounter in the dungeon Magisters' Terrace (The Burning Crusade). The Adventure Guide lists it only on Heroic and Timewalking. It is one of 37 items in that encounter's loot table. The game files carry no drop chance, so none is shown here.
Once a true champion to the blood elf people, and a defender of the race's ancient heritage, Kael'thas Sunstrider has fallen prey to the dark influences of the demon Kil'jaeden while sojourning in Outland. At the bidding of his new master, the wayward prince returned to Azeroth and seized the Sunwell, hoping to use the fount as a means to open a doorway for the demon to this new and verdant world. Kael'thas is a brilliant tactician, a powerful warrior, and his veins burn with limitless fel magic.
