I don’t agree because there’s players with few characters that 1% drops + frequency of attempt could lead to a massive frustrating grind over years. that’s why a BLP could work better that leaving the players to handle it via armies of alts. That for cosmetics.
Player power items should be acquired even faster due to the seasonal content, Actually I tought Devs had something in mind after the Shadowlands Fated season with the Dinnar system, I expected something similar for DF, because its not only about Legendaries, there’s massive upgrades via some trinkets that you can grind the whole season without results.
Yeah, I’ve over 900, however; that requires to do a massive alt army, otherwise its impossible to get, the game should provide a better approach for new players and players with few characters too, so maybe things like keep the 1% but remove the lockout in old raids, so you don’t need alts…etc, RNG is a matter of various elements, Drop %, ratio of attempts. Increase one value and you’ll get it eventually.
It is ok for some things in the game to be very difficult to get - as long as those things are merely cosmetic and not tied to player power, it is perfectly acceptable in my opinion.
You dont need 900 mounts, nor do I, we farm mounts as an enjoyable activity.
Frankly, I enjoy the rare drop chance of some mounts, gives me something to do.
If every mount were easy to get, I’d be done and have no more mounts to farm
If you think farming mounts is a waste of your time, just don’t do it.
It’s purely cosmetic and not necessary to enjoy the game.
I enjoy farming rare mounts even if I’ve been at them for years.
The ONLY mount that I became frustrated with was the oondasta mount. But I wasn’t frustrated because of the low drop rate - I was frustrated because there were CONSTANTLY hunters trying to tame it and grief everyone from tagging it.
Whenever I went to oondasta, I always had to sit on the edge of my seat, ready to burn oondasta down as fast as possible so the hunter couldn’t finish their taming cast.
When I finally got oondasta’s mount, I was so relieved that I would never EVER AGAIN have to endure this interaction with hunters.
And honestly, farming oondasta alongside hunters became so annoying that I actually stopped doing it for a few months and then came back to it when it didn’t bother me so much.
Basically - if you aren’t enjoying the journey of farming a mount, it’s probably best you just don’t do it.
At this point so is the Legendary since according to the data posted it’ll take 40 weeks of LFR (3/4th’s of a year) to be guaranteed a drop (and with the scaling, it’s terrible until that point). And we’re only on week 11, so 29 weeks to go.
Ohh i get what your saying okay i understand,however ive posted earlier I truly feel wowhead is wrong because ive only been doing normal since first week it was availble and ive seen 3 drops so far so according to there stats ive witnessed insane luck 3 times and all those runs are without the ember hotfix. They have only mentioner lfr beint low drop rate and any difficulty above that increases i dont think normal heroic and mythic are that far in difference in drop chance
At the moment I farm heroic on 4 toons (and they’ve not done it every week, sprinkled in as I got more gear on them), normal on 5, and the remainder are all LFR (this is week 11 for LFR). I am over 300 kills total now and I’ve not seen it drop. Unfortunately, I did my heroic kills this week on Tuesday before the hotfix. So next week I’ll see how that goes. Haven’t seen a drop in Normal or LFR this week after the hotfix either.
Very interesting to hear your stats. It lines up to exactly my point ive done it on 1 toon on normal only once a week and have seen 3 drop vs others who have done heroic weekly and have seen 3 or less as well almost proves to me based on that the base drop chance between norm/heroic/mythic is very close in nature and no where near what wowhead is saying about norm vs heroic
Well if you look at the wowhead data (they show pre and post), prior to Tuesdays hotfix the drop rate in all 4 versions was TERRIBLE. Post Tuesday it’s much better in Heroic/Mythic but still pretty terrible in LFR/Normal.
