Black Qiraji Resonating Crystal summons a Black Qiraji Battle Tank, a legendary mount. The Crystal is a quest reward from 
[60] Bang a Gong!, which requires the player to use the Scepter of the Shifting Sands on the gong on the Scarab Dais during the 10 hour battle with the Silithids during the opening of Ahn'Qiraj. This is a one time server event.

Notes
- This Crystal summons a swift, ridable Scarab that can be ridden when outside of the Temple of Ahn'Qiraj.
- Should other players possess the scepter, they may also receive the mount if they activate the gong up to 10 hours after the opening.
- This mount has the same riding speed as normal epic mounts.
- While inside the Temple of Ahn'Qiraj, this mount follows the same rules as the common scarab mounts; the player is immediately dismounted upon entering combat. Outside of Ahn'Qiraj, the mount does not have this behavior.
- Because of the mount's dual purpose (usable both inside the Temple, where normal mounts cannot be used, and outside), it has never had the exact same casting behavior as a normal mount.
Patches/Changes
Pre-patch 2.2, unlike normal mounts, one could cast it while falling and mount up mid-air. (Though, if you landed while casting and took damage it interrupts the cast). Additionally, you could "insta switch" to the scarab mount while flying or running with another mount.
One-Time Bug
If a player was logged out while mounted on this mount when patch 2.2 was deployed, upon logging in after the patch, the mount "buff" was replaced by a buff that transformed the player into a flying wasp. This was a one time occurance, however, as there is no evidence the flying wasp buff is reobtainable by any means.
