Obtaining Rare Solves in LegionBased on the latest information, Legion Archaeology Rare solves WILL NOT be obtained from surveying, but rather will be part of an ongoing story questline. Every 2 weeks a quest will appear from the Archaeology trainer ([npc=93538]), granting a Rare project at its completion. Note that level 110 will be required for these quests.

This mount is one of a few profession mounts coming in Legion. Below is a summary list (of those not previously mentioned), sorted by profession.UPDATES:
- The Enchanting mount appears to have been removed!
- It seems the Blacksmithing mount, Steelbound Harness, is not BoP, and does not require Blacksmithing, suggesting it can be bought/sold on the Auction House.
Blacksmithing
- Steelbound Harness (Mount: Steelbound Devourer)
Fishing
- [item=138811] (Mount: Brinedeep Bottom-Feeder)
Below is a breakdown of crafted mounts. Note that "profession specific" mounts are those for which either having the profession or using the profession (e.g. Fishing, Archaeology) is REQUIRED to learn the mount. Non-profession specific mounts are those where the profession is not required to learn them - either non-soulbound mounts that everyone can use, like Vial of the Sands, or mounts available from other sources, like [item=23720].ProfessionTOTAL MountsProfession specific mountsNon-profession specific mountsNew in LegionAlchemy1010Archaeology3301Blacksmithing1011Engineering6*240Fishing5411Jewelcrafting5050Leatherworking2201Tailoring4400TOTAL2715124
NOTE: *Mechano-Hog/Mekgineer's Chopper are faction-specific; Geosynchronous World Spinner and Depleted-Kyparium Rocket require Gnomish and Goblin Engineering, respectively, to craftQuick numbers:
- 5 total professions (3 primary, 2 secondary) are required to get all profession specific mounts
- 11 crafted mounts are usable by anyone, and are typically available on the Auction House
- This doesn't include the 1 Non-profession specific Fishing mount, [item=23720], which is a Trading Card game mount and thus is available online, on eBay or on the Black Market Auction House.
- Only 5 professions have no associated mounts - Enchanting, Inscription, and the 3 gathering professions
- 3 of the new Legion mounts are profession specific, and 1, Steelbound Harness, is not and can be learned by anyone.

Since 8.1.5, this can now fly by running across the sky.
Jut got this to solve as project, its 600 Bone Fragments of Eche'ro, you get this while digging the sites in Highmountain. The quest that starts this is The Right Path in Dalaran archaeology building, you go to Thunder Totem and speak with Lessah there, she gives you the quest Laying To Rest.
The amount of bone fragments is 1-4 per dig, so one site gives about 20-25 fragments, the spawned spirits drop 10-15 bones.
Edit: Finished the project, took 26 digsites to finish.
Tooltip
Summons and dismisses the Spirit of Eche'ro.
