Arfus is massively disrespectful towards your players and their time

[Mounts/Pets] Adding event items to vendors - extra bad luck protection

Then what is the point of having it drop from the dungeon? I was really scared I wouldn’t get Arfus. … but I kept going on several alts daily and he did drop for me a couple of days ago, and it wasn’t the first run and that alt had no curses. The holiday mounts are literally the incentive to run the dungeon. I wasn’t even running it for years since I had the mount, but adding a few new items got me back in there to try my luck. If you just add them to the vendor, there isn’t much reason to do t…

@Kaylessa, Do you consider killing the same boss good gameplay? What about new Holiday Worldquest, Holiday PvP brawls, Holiday World events…then add the cosmetics like Arfus, mount…etc that are related to a limited time event to a vendor for candy that you can farm from the boss or that other content. Yes, you’re right Boss participation could go down but you can fix that too, Instead of adding just 2 rings, 1 sword and 1 plate helmet…Add a whole full catch up holiday gear set for every class or make it drop the last catch up gear + evergreeen rewards like XP potions, Stat runes…etc, maybe add 1-2% bag that could contain mounts from previous raid, dungeons, reputations …etc like the did before with healer / tank for LFG (https://www.wowhead.com/item=69903/satchel-of-exotic-mysteries#contains).

It’s something you try for, some will get it, some won’t in any given year. I’d rather go the route of if it drops for someone who already has it, they can sell it on the AH or give it away, that would put more out there. As someone who has had to destroy a couple over the years, it’s a sad feeling.

That’s a good first idea, similar to the mount for Alliance/Horde from Timerift that you can gift to other players or the Salamander from Forbiden Reach that you can trade.
