Looted this from salvaging Venture Co. War Machine while having the buff that you from Azerite Inspir-A-Geneering Elixir (Looted from mobs in the dungeon between 2nd and 3rd boss while having at least 150+ 75 skill points aka 3 rings unlocked in your engineering goggles)
Salvaged 3 mobs before buff ran out and got 1 of these items.

*EDIT* Done 3 runs now and i only got 1 Blast-Fired Electric Servomotor per run while Salvaging 3-6 War Machines, if you want to salvage all 6 within 2 mins without them despawning you should kill the first 4 Machines before you pop the Elixir and start salvaging them and then kill the remaining 2 before the buff runs out.

Salvaged one of these from an Azerite Extractor on Mythic today. Did not have the buff from the potion. Engineering is 150 + 3 traits from goggles.

Comment by Moltke

I just salvaged one from a Mechanized Peacekeeper today with 225/150 eng. Seems to be very rare though.

Seems like these can drop off any of the 3 mechanical mobs you salvage with 225/150 (3 rings on goggles)

Mechanized Peacekeepers before 1st boss
Azerite Extractors before 2nd boss
and Venture Co. War Machines before 4th boss

I'm averaging 1 or less per run whether I use to elixir prior to salvaging them or not.

As of now I've run 8 mythic Motherlode at 225/150 and have the following mats:
5 Blast-Fired Electric Servomotor
24 Crush Resistant Stabilizer
39 Azerite Forged Protection Plating

Comment by drstiffy

Ran mythic motherlode about 5-7 times with 225 eng have: 19 Azerite Forged Protection Plating 10 Crush Resistant Stabilizer and 6 Blast-Fired Electric Servomotor
It seems to be that Blast-Fired Electric Servomotor has the lowest drop rate among them all I do not believe any mobs drop each mat at a higher rate since i have got all 3 at once from all types of harvestable mobs.
I have not used Azerite Inspir-A-Geneering Elixir to loot any, also the elixer seems to have a really high drop rate i often get around 3 just by going through the area and it does drop from the alchemists.
You cannot use Azerite Inspir-A-Geneering Elixir and get Mecha-Mogul Mk1 Remote Activation Device from the last boss if you are already locked to the instance .

Comment by dandjcool

I ran this mythic dungeon about twice an hour for 16+hours this weekend. I can confirm that the drop rate of the Blast-Fired Electric Servomotor is extremely low. For example, I have 60 Azerite Forged Protection Plating - 49 Crush Resistant Stabilizer and only 12 Blast-Fired Electric Servomotor. This item is the most frustrating item you will farm.

Comment by chukovskiy

Either I am super lucky or drop rate got improved. Salvaged red bots after 3d boss today and got 4 from 20 bodies.

P.S. Turns out I was super lucky.
In the end of farming this I got:
66 Crush Resistant Stabilizer
85 Azerite Forged Protection Plating
20 Blast-Fired Electric Servomotor
No potion and only red bots near the end.

Comment by Crunchg

These drop from all mechs in the instance, I get them with and without the buff from the potion, it does seem as if the red mechs have a slightly higher drop chance for these at the moment. At first I only received one from a few runs but now with maybe 10ish pug runs I’m sitting at 12 blast fired, 14 of each of the other two more common ones, I do use the potion when I get them to try and salvage at least two mechs with it active.
NOTE! I let one mech sit there so I could wait until the end to pop the potion and salvage three at a time, I was able to get two of them but the third closer to the third boss had despawned! So if it’s going to be less than a few minutes just salvage them as you’ll lose the mech. Hope this answers a few questions for someone. Thanks 👌

Comment by schumii

Question; i will engineering azerites ect... but many robots i can't enigineer? And that's a problem. Because in 1 run i sometimes only get 1 part. And in another run i get sometimes 4-5 parts, but in many runs i get only 1 part? What is the problem? And how does it come that sometimes i can't engineer 3 robots in a row?
I have 150+75 engineering.

Comment by Erdes

Does this also drop on Heroic and Normal or only on Mythic?

Comment by fatalfox

Finally finished building a Mecha-Mogul-MK2 today.

Total number of runs : 24

Reagent	Number salvaged	Percentage salvaged
Azerite Forged Protection Plating	95	50.8%
Crush Resistant Stabilizer	72	38.5%
Blast-Fired Electric Servomotor	20	10.6%

Each run included 4 Mechanized Peacekeeper, 1 Azerite Extractor & 6 Venture Co. War Machine - when possible looting 4 War Machines with the potion buff but from my experience this did not increase the drop percentage of the Servomotors.
The Peacekeepers do drop Blast-Fired Electric Servomotors but at a really low rate.

Comment by Myranda101

You can easily clear all the trash up to the last boss (need invis pots for second boss)
but apart from that if you are in a group with a tank & 2 dps/healer you can just roflstomp through it without killing any bosses up to the last boss, hearth out and reset. Personally (tank) i have checked how far i could go solo. the answer was until the 3rd boss. the final pack before the 3rd boss sees through invis pots and hurts like a mothertrucker.
but yeah you can clear the whole instance without bothering with bosses ;)

Comment by Arkron

Do I really need to be wearing the engineering goggles to be able to loot those items?

Comment by greengoo

Here is my comprehensive guide on how to farm this as of November, 2018:

You will need to farm the following items:
------------------------------------------------------------
- Platinum Ore x 50 (Mining or the AH)
- Storm Silver Ore x 100 (Mining or the AH)
- Expulsom x 20 (Scrapper)
- Azerite Forged Protection Plating x 20 (MOTHERLODE-Mythic, not M+, harvest defeated mechs)
- Crush Resistant Stabilizer x 20 (MOTHERLODE-Mythic, not M+, harvest defeated mechs)
- Blast-Fired Electric Servomotor (MOTHERLODE-Mythic, not M+, harvest defeated mechs, RARE)
- Barely Stable Azerite Reactor (Have high BFA engineering, purchase for 30,000g from Doctor Boom inside MOTHERLODE)
- Mecha-Mogul Mk1 Remote Activation Device (MOTHERLODE-Mythic, not M+, drops from Mogul Razdunk, must have max BFA engineering + wearing fully unlocked engineering goggles + using Azerite Inspir-A-Geneering Elixir at time of kill)
- Mecha-Mogul Mk2 Recipe (MOTHERLODE-Mythic, including M+, drops from Mogul Razdunk, must have BFA engineering any level)

Bonus Items Needed:
-------------------------------
- BFA Engineering Goggles, all traits unlocked (will boost your BFA engineering level)
- Azerite Inspir-A-Geneering Elixir, Unique, drops from Megaminds in MOTHERLODE at high engineering levels

Basic Instructions:
--------------------------
- Train BFA engineering and level to max ASAP
- Build your Goggles and unlock all traits (boosts your BFA Eng level more when equipped)
- Run THE MOTHERLODE on Mythic (normal mythic, not +) while wearing goggles
- Pull, kill, loot and harvest the mechs to collect Plating, Stabilizers and Servomotors. It seems higher BFA Eng level yields higher drop rates.
- (High Eng Required) Buy the Barely Stable Azerite Reactor from Dr. Boom for 30,000g
- (High Eng Required) Kill Megaminds to loot Azerite Inispir-A-Geneering Elixir
- (High Eng Required) Use the elixir before Mogul Razdunk dies (can be during fight) and loot the Mk1 Activation Device.
- After you get the Mk1 Activation device, elixirs should be used on the hill before Mogul Razdunk to boost harvest rates on those mechs
- Kill Mogul Razdunk on any Mythic difficulty (Mythic, M+) and loot the recipe (any BFA Eng Level)
- Craft the mount
- Go outside and get some sun (optional)

Notes:
---------
- Farming the Servomotors will take the longest, as they seem to drop at about 25% the rate of the other two blue items.
- The recipe itself does NOT require high engineering level to obtain, and unlike most items may be obtained on any Mythic or Mythic+ difficulty.
- Always let the Mech Jockeys mount up, and request early on that your fellow dungeoneers do the same. If they are stunned or prevented from their first attempt to mount up, they may not try again, wasting a precious mech kill that run.
- Pull as many mechs as you can in a run, even if you have to pull an extra pack or two (Azerite Extractors come to mind). However, work with your group to make sure you're not pissing them off.
- I advise you create your own M0 runs and only invite non engineers to minimize competition. Some runs may only yield 1 or 2 blue mats even if you harvest all the mechs, so this is key.
- After you have obtained the Activation Remote using the Elixirs, they are best used on the hill before the final boss. If you are smart, you can harvest all 6 mechs on that hill with one elixir if you wait to harvest them till they're all dead.

Comment by Edacralo

35 runs -> 75 , 41 and only 16 . Got like not even 1 servometer in the last 3 runs

Comment by Locktose

Two of these dropped from the final boss. Is this new or has it always dropped this way?

Comment by B3CK3RS

Not sure when this was changed but you can get these from Mogul Razdunk on M+, so you can easily get all the mats with ~10 M+ runs.

Comment by Orvos

For all you engineers out there wanting to farm the mats for the mount. I managed to loot 2 of each of the Crush Resistant Stabilizer, Blast-Fired Electric Servomotor, and Azerite Forged Protection Plating from Mogul Razdunk on Heroic difficulty The MOTHERLODE!! through the dungeon finder. I also managed to loot a Mecha-Mogul Mk1 Remote Activation Device off of him in the same run. Granted its not the quickest way to farm the parts, but its probably the easiest. I have not confirmed if this is farmable or just lootable once per day like other heroics. I also do not have the schematic for the mount so I can confirm it is not needed to loot these items off of Mogul Razdunk.

EDIT-----

This is not farm-able on Heroic. Its only possible to loot Mogul Razdunk once per day as per normal heroic dungeon looting rules. Be warned though that you will also get 1 Mecha-Mogul Mk1 Remote Activation Device per day per kill if your engineering is high enough. This item is unique and is sent to your mailbox if you are either unable to or refuse to loot it. I ran this dungeon for 10 days straight to get enough parts and had 9 of these remotes sitting in my mailbox. I don't know if it was an error or intended but I was not able to delete them directly from my mailbox. I had to delete or use the one I had in my bags then retrieve one from my mailbox and repeat until my mail was empty again.

Comment by rozgar

As of 8.3.7, Mogul Razdunk doesn't drop 2x of every reagent, including this one as some comments claim. I've been getting one to two Azerite Forged Protection Plating per run over the course of 8 runs. Didn't see anything else than the platings.

Comment by farble1670

In 7 normal solo runs, skipping to the last boss, I received 14x Blast Fired Servomotor and 10x Crush Resistant Stabilizer. The Mecha-Mogul Mk1 Remote Activation Device drops every time from last boss (you only need one).

Pretty reasonable. I should be able to be done in 10-15 runs total, x ~5 minutes per run. You can stealth / run + feign death to the last boss. No need to kill anything else. I watched some videos suggesting to kill other mobs and deconstruct them. I did this on the first run and didn't get any of the required mats.

Make sure and craft + wear your engineering goggles. Nothing I could find said what level + variety was needed. I can only craft up to the "Surging" variety, and those seem to work.

Obviously this will change when Shadowlands is released and we get better gear, but this is what worked for pre-patch.

Start -> 1st boss: stealth + AoC to exit from boss room. Unstealth and wait for stealth to come off of CD.
1st boss -> 2nd boss: stealth all the way past 2nd boss. Unstealth, and walk down tracks.
2nd boss -> 3rd boss: dismiss pets and mount up, race through center of path past 3rd boss to exit of boss room. Feign death.
3rd boss -> last boss: mount up and ride to last boss keeping to left edge. Skirt edges of boss and head out back door of boss room and feign death. Sometimes bombs don't lose aggro, so be ready to summon pets and kill them.

Note that if you fudge up the feign death or stealth anywhere you get kicked back to the entrance because of no check points. If you are having trouble kill some bosses along the way.

Comment by Algaliarept

I've run Motherlode 10+ times since shadowlands, in normal, heroic, and mythic 0...
I've received 2 blast fired electric servomotors in 1 instance of a mythic 0.
I've received MANY Azerite Forged Protection Plating pieces....

And I got the 2 servomotors without wearing the now old goggles. That last 5 runs have been with those goggles on again, with no apparent change to drop rates.

I wonder if they tweaked the drop rates, cause they're terrible now.

Comment by Soulsyx

Kill trash until you have two elixirs. Since you can't hold two, sell one before looting the second one. Kill all the war machines, then drink your first elixir and salvage all of them in the time limit, then buy back the first one from the vendor and use it for the last boss.

Comment by Wrashis

As of 9.1 mech jockeys are not getting in the mechs. Submit your bug reports, people!

Comment by Flysh

I've done over 15 normal runs and 3 mythic with zero of these dropping. It's the only mat I need to make the mount at this point.

Comment by Morakin

Blast-Fired Electric Servomotor can be looted off last boss on Mythic, HC AND Normal.
I dont know if it's once a day or if you can spam normal to get it.
Just remember to have your Engi Googles on ;)
Happy farming

Side Note. It seems the other mats from trash is only from Mythic

Comment by rochmoninoff

I wasted months soloing The Motherload! trying to get the Blast-Fired Electric Servomotors to drop.
I got plenty of Plating and Stabilizers but zero Servomotors.
Then I tried the (stupid?) trick of wearing BoA-grade engineering goggles,
(i had to make new ones)
I also unlocked all the azerite rings and wore the deprecated Heart of Azeroth necklace but that might be unnecessary.

Anyway: once you do this the final boss drops 2 Servomotors every kill.
This works on Normal Heroic and Mythic.

I never saw a drop from any of the mechanical mobs, just the final boss.

Comment by Kattak

Kill only the last boss on normal. Easy farm at level 70.

1. Must be max skill in BFA eng and Heart of Azeroth and Eng helm equipped - don't worry about the potion.
2. Set dungeon difficulty to normal
3. Rush to last boss. It's possible to skip almost everything, if you aggro anything along the way, it's better to kill it on the spot or it will just aggro more trash/bosses and slow you down.
4. Last boss - slow dps, don't push him under 50%, this is to force him to go into his rail-gun mode and then burn him down to zero, thus skipping the immune phase.
5. Take the ride out - reset - repeat

At about 5 minutes per run you should net 2 of each component. So, one mount every hour-ish.

Comment by icemage24

As of DF, 8/25/23, it seems the last boss of The MOTHERLODE! drops 2 of these every kill, every difficulty. I am wearing the engineering goggles, but I've looted every mech and got nothing but regular white engineering items. Boss has dropped 2 of these and 1 rod every kill, ran it 10 times on normal, made a mount

0. Engineering at 175
1. Heart of Azeroth (mine was Level 55)
2. Engineering made Goggles (mine was AZ3-R1-T3 Gearspun Goggles, so +20 engineering)
3. SHIFT+RIGHT CLICK on engineering-made Goggles! (click and max out all rings - oh.. this ring.. - this will +25 +30 to engineering!)

so altogether +20 +25 +30 = +75 to 175 engineering, a grand total of 250

after many many readings from bits and pieces everywhere... you need to get the 250 to drop the final Remote and Servomotor.

Happy Grinding...
