Change the Fel Drake Twitch drop

Okay here me out because this is a good compromise i feel. How about instead of the Fel Drake being the drop you put the Festering Emerald Drake in as the drop and Fel Drake in as WoW Classic mount.

This fixes several issues from what i have seen in the community, retail “OG’s” retain retail exclusivity while giving classic a way to get a mount they otherwise never had a chance to get.

The Festering Emerald Drake would come to retail like everyone is asking for.

I like your idea, because not only does it feel bad seeing something you paid a lot for be given out for free, it also means people who already own the Fel Drake get absolutely nothing. Not even a token to unlock some other TCG/Blizzcon/Recruit a Friend mount. Nothing, double whammy

I’m going to get it to spite those who cherished it for years.

Only because this happened to me with another mount I recall. Felt so special to have it but then it became available in shop down the road.

Thank you, a TCG token would have been a good idea too and just let people choose a TCG mount instead of making it Fel Drake that way everyone gets something.

Nah I’m against that. Just keep it as twitch drop and do more of those.

The entitlement here is out of bonds.

Well, they don’t have to do the watching if they don’t want to.

I seriously don’t care one way or another, but I doubt Blizz will change anything about this promo at all.

Also this:

Is NOT Blizzard’s problem. If you spent money on this, or ANY in-game item, that’s all on you.

They’re not changing it after all the official stuff they’ve released about it (not to mention that there are those who have already gotten the year sub). People who are upset should probably just get over it.

Entitlement huh. I see you have the pet Murkidan on your account, that’s something I would want to own. Would you feel sour in any way at all if next month they gave everyone Murkidan pet for keeping some Twitch E-celeb stream minimized in the background?

i’d rather have the feldrake tbh…cuz it has that thing on its head which is really nice :revolving_hearts:

Murkidan? Isn’t that buyable or they removed the expension upgrade? In all honestly I wouldn’t be bothered if you want to spend money for it and it was available. I don’t have any desire to gatekeep fellow players from acquiring stuff.

It was a Blizzcon reward, I think.

I also think he overestimates how much people care if years-old event-exclusive vanity items wound up as part of some other promotion. I have the Stormwind Skychaser and wouldn’t care in the slightest if it was part of a Twitch drop or Prime Gaming reward or whatever.

I’m with you. I don’t care if everything I have becomes available from a vendor for 50 silver. It doesn’t take the items away from me.

The Illidari Felstalker.

Oh well. I still have my flying moose and Obsidian Nightwing. :disappointed:

Well ok if you want it this way, I say no because the way blizzard is doing it opens up the possibility of all TCG items and mounts coming back. Oh and for anyone wondering this guy has the fel drake already so he’s obviously very biased and salty.

No.

There are no issues.

I have the Ethereal Soul Trader. I spent a crap ton of real money to try to get it. Then I had to spend a crap ton of gold to get it in game, because the card wouldn’t drop.

They could give it away to everyone tomorrow who logs in and I wouldn’t give one crap if they did.

Since the doors are now open to keeping nothing rare/prized/exclusive I’d like to see the BlizzCon 2019 Virtual Ticket in-game goodies be placed on that Twitch drop list sometime in the near future. I was struggling jobless in 2019 and couldn’t buy the Blizzcon ticket, have been sad and regretful about it ever since… and so now that we’re going full who cares about what people have in an MMO I feel deserving of these “old items,” in exchange for keeping Swifty’s stream open for 4 hours in 160p 1% volume

It’s just funny and bizarre to see Fel Drake be given out for free by the same game that wouldn’t put Slime Cat in LFR. If we don’t care about how obtainable a mount is why isn’t Slime Cat in LFR?

Also bring back the TCG with new tabards and mounts please :dracthyr_love_animated:
