Congratulations.
Just to confirm, I just got it today.
What I did:
I queued up in the same Coren Direbrew with 2 accounts I have. When I killed, I first opened the barrel on one of my characters, and I didnât get it.
I opened the second barrel, and I got the mount.
So the tech of queuing up with all accounts you have at same time really does work.
It is an RNG nightmareâŚ
Just got the mount and the drake customization out of the same box. Now I shall go buy a lottery ticket.
Iâve not seen this drop once, for anyone in my groups.
Up to 93 attempts and nothing.
The grind continuesâŚ
Took me 4 tries. Third try I got the dragonriding thing, 4th the mount.
I havenât seen anyone open their bags inside the instance.
not at all.
it just means you got lucky.
thereâs been a whole bunch of misinformation surrounding this mount drop, and wowhead is the biggest instigator of the misinformation.
people are getting this drop after the first run of the day, so itâs not the âone chance per dayâ as is stated as being âfactualâ by the person who wrote the wowhead article.
Ill edit this in to the OP
Dwarves.
Donât do that. Youâve already used up your good luck.
Oh im sorry, did you make barrels fly? The Draenei need Naaru technology. We reused our resources to do the absolutely remarkable. Some races have beer muscles. We have beer brains.
Itâs the same engineering impetus that makes a dwarf* look at a pile of fel-encrusted pipes and think âbow!â
*Aided and abetted by a draenei manari Eredar.
I just got the Renewed Proto-Drake: brewfest Armor, This one try per account each day thing is so annoying.
i got the mount
its very cool
2 days of farming, compared to the 15 years for the headless horseman mount
Yes, the bad luck protection is a good point, I donât know if there is and how exactly it works, thereâs the possibility that it stacks up with each separate first kill of the day, and since my kills were at the same exact second, I only really got 1 bad luck protection increase per day, making it possible to get it later on in the event for unlucky people who do it once per account.
However, when it comes to the amount of days that passed, itâs a matter of resets in the US vs EU: it dropped for me the day 26 half an hour post reset, which is at 6 a.m. in the EU, and it was possible to do it the day 23, 24, 25 before, and I did, so that seems to be 4 âdaysâ indeed for EU, considering the cache reappears at reset.
And the event started at 7 a.m. the day 23 in the EU.
It canât drop on follow up kills, itâs a waste of time, best thing you can do is do 1 run with 5 accounts together, those all count as âfirst kill of the dayâ, the only one that can drop the mount.
Itâs not just luck, it really does NOT drop on follow-up kills of the day, remember that if you multibox the same coren kill the barrel that can contain the mount appears in your inventory at the same time on all accounts, so they are all counted as first kills of the day.
On wowhead you have a person that did 304 kills already, but look at the case also got it at the first kill of the day 4, itâs not a coincidence.
Itâs the love sweeper 2.0
On my first run today I finally got the one item Iâve been trying to get for at least 10 years.
I swear half my alts got it before my main did.
The elusive Direbrewâs Remote!
Huzzah!!
Oh yeah, and that bomber thing too, whatever.
I didnât even know it existed until it dropped first time for me.
I thought it was just a common mount at first until I read up on it.
I usually have next to no luck with mounts I want, I.e. Ashes of Alar, Invincible, etcâŚ
