Bring Brutosaur back for 20th anniversary

For sure and you know I’m a big supporter of that but I think a few things don’t make sense.

So, previous gold sink mounts stay but for some reason they pick the Brutosaur to remove? If they were worried about the AH being too accessible then they could have replaced it with like a mailbox or bank.

Every achievement mount has stayed but they took the plagued and black proto-drake out for reasons? You can’t tell me that these two were more difficult to get than any other. Wrath’s version of Naxx was cleared the first week it was out. They just couldn’t decide how they were going to handle those achievement mounts at the time but once they did decide, they should have put them back.

And the anniversary mounts. The gray dragonhawk can be bought on the vendor but why not the others? What makes that one less special? Makes no sense. They should just put them all on the anniversary vendor for like, 5 or 10 thousand Timewalking badges. I’m sure most people have nothing to spend their badges on anyways.

Then there’s the Naxx sets. Just let LW, Tailors and BS craft them for the 2.8m gold whether they own the set or not. Now that there’s two sources for these sets are they really that special anymore?

(I’m only addressing the items on the BMAH that you can’t get from their original source.)

for the record, I think it’s stupid they removed the mount, and have no objection to it being put back on the vendor for 5m.

they’re not going to do it though.

what people are reacting against is what Sendryn said below

it’s just eyeroll.

Where did I say it “hurt” anyone?

I don’t care if it comes back.

But this drama about “punishing” and “hurting” and “new players,” all while you’re the one mixing in limited time crap is the problem.

Just add it back like every other gold sink mount and stop people screaming about limited time.

Bingo.

Yeah, I thought this was weird. Why not the yak? Nor the spider? :dracthyr_a1:

What about a slap in the face? :dracthyr_blob_dance_animated: :dracthyr_love_animated:

It’s the biggest mount in the game and paws down the best perk. They removed it to keep it from filling every city and mailbox area with them.

Then they should have thought of that in the first place, instead of making the stupid mistake and removing a vendor mount as the “answer.”

You can’t tell me they didn’t think of that when they added the mount. People were still bloated with WoD and Legion gold.

And most people are horrible with money so I don’t think this mount will ever be flooding the cities.

Great idea for the 20th anniversary I would pay gold cap for it

I think you’re have reasonable points for these items. To be honest I wasn’t aware of the status of a few of them, but you make a convincing case.

They said Tyrael’s charger would never be available either outside of it’s initial way to get it.

Then boom.

only if it flies…

Back in WoD, Blizzard added the world shrinker and promptly had to invent entirely new systems to combat it once it became apparent how easily this particular toy would proliferate and the net effect it would have on mounts and the player experience.

I’m sure they thought about it while designing the thing(and it was shrunk once already), but they probably didn’t know the thing could be made 100 feet tall with little effort.

Heard and clearly my frustrations made my original post unnecessarily dramatic. But the point that many others have said very well is just make it possible again.

Having some items just randomly unavailable compared to others feels off

Hasn’t it shown up once on one server? You seem to be making it appear that when it’s on the BMAH, everyone who wants it can get it.

But I think they should rework the BMAH so it works more like a vendor, possibly the item appearing on all servers, not just one. When an item appears, it has a set price. People would have a day to buy it at that price, then it’s gone until sometime in the indefinite future.

That would be not only a better gold sink, but it would eliminate a lot of degenerate stuff people do to get around how it works.

Great point, 5-10 million is a lot for many

I’m not opposed to it being available mind you, but, it can’t be super easy either or most people will be using it all the time. And some of us did go all out to get the thing BECAUSE it was being removed. To the tune of 24 tokens in my case.

Nope. It was bugged and not appearing but they fixed that.

Yeah, that’d be reasonable. The current model of camping dead realms with gold cap at 2:30 am est is kind of…not ideal. :dracthyr_crylaugh: Alternatively they could bump the gold cap to 99.9m to avoid people freely snagging big items like bruto or tiger for only 9.9m

Tell me you didn’t read my post without telling me. :expressionless:

exits, shaking head

This I woke up at 1:30am 20 days in a row until it just breaks you lol. Clearly a better design could exist

Yeah, I did this for all of mop-wod with gold cap copied so I could paste for tiger. Missed tiger by a few seconds when it was listed but got the raptor. :dracthyr_heart: Just having it on a daily or weekly rotation would be more fun, I think, sort of like the trading post.
