This was not a challenge to get at the time; it was just limited to a time when the least amount of people were playing, the raids were the least liked, and the most amount of people hated the game, for a mount that's actually very coveted by people. The only thing that is important is if the challenge to get a previous mount is similar. In this case, and most others so far, you have to do the same damn thing as you did the first time.
Honestly it would be nice if they gave more options for fated raids to buy up past AOTC Mounts and even CM ones. I have so many of these "Prestige" mounts that they feel like they alone are only worth a damn to rare individuals. In a certain other game of 14th variety, I keep getting asked where i get X mount when I ride on it or comments on my looks and or where to get weapons when i'm in a social space. I end up making mild connections and friendships when people say "I Know you!" in a random group.In wow, that has not happened since Mists of Pandaria and almost if not everyone gives 0 #$%^s what you ride, where it's from or whatever it is you look like. Your Glad mount means nothing. Your Mythic top 100 Title means jack @#$%. Everything in wow has gotten to a point prestige is nothing to anyone no matter what it is.So why anyone cares they re-release the old, unobtainable mounts like Tyrael Charger and other such kinds is beyond me. It's pixels on a screen. it's 2024, not the 2000's. And getting butt hurt over a re-release of a cool model from an expansion that almost 80% of players abandoned before it was revealed to be a reward only to try and keep the Sunk Cost Fallacy players happy and content is laughable at best and depressing at worse.FOMO should no longer be a thing.
what the hell is a "dinar"?
Weird it's not just a recolor as that seems simple enough to do.. No issues from me though :) Can't say I've ever cared about people getting things I've already got. The "prestige" of having something early is fine, but let people obtain it in some way still.
Love being lied to.
I have this mount and I'm glad everyone will be able to get another go at getting it. And going to be honest, no mount has 'Prestige'. It's just a pixel, so enjoy it.
I was hoping this would have returned alongside a sort of Timewalking mode for the old raids or something, so the method of obtaining it is more or less exactly the same. I'll take this, though. As someone who couldn't raid during SL due to a terrible internet connection, I was super sad I missed out on this mount.
FOMO is stupid. Video game prestige is stupid. Bring it all back (keeping relative difficulty intact preferred), let people have fun. I have a lot of "prestigious" FOMO items and I want to see other people enjoying those items too, including things from way back when.It's a game. Let people enjoy things.
Prestige has no value when it was so recent. Whiners can be quiet. I for one am glad it's coming back because more people should have gotten this goofy thing. With Dragonflight raids being as easy as they are (on normal), this shouldn't be too hard to get compared to Shadowlands fated raids.Broodmother, NotNeltharion, and Tindral are going to be fun all over again.
I hate this recycling of content patch trend that they started in Shadowlands.
people losing their minds about a mount you got from running normal raid 3 times lmao
From someone with the mount: being that the reward dropped from normal and normal is easy, this isn't really that big of a deal tbch. This is not them releasing AOTC/CE/M+/Glad or expansion specific rewards (mage tower, pandaria leggo), which they stated previously they won't do and shouldn't do. If this were an AOTC or gladiator mount, then yeah, I could understand why people would be throwing fits about it being that AOTC/CE/Glad takes serious coordination and effort that not everyone wants to/can put into content. But this isn't that. This is an accessible reward for casual players being re-rewarded on the same difficulty/style of raid. It's not that deep.
Pretty lame, hopefully just a placeholder.They should have made it a different color of the slime cat. People can get the model, the original retains some level of prestige, everyone is happy. Plus it would actually be something new.
