Heart Shaped Box

So the purple box that drops the mount is for eligible players only, anyone else at a lower level gets the green one, and therefore no mount chance.

I was looking at the stats on Wowhead, noting that not everyone uses the Wowhead uploader to show the correct stats, but also worth noting there has been over 254K opens that have been recorded on the site.

Currently there are NO RECORDED DROPS OF THE MOUNT.

If you include everyone who does not upload data to Wowhead who knows how many other boxes have been opened and how many mounts have dropped, but based on just those stats alone we do not even have a chance at getting it.

Which is why I noted that, it still stands, 254K boxes and no mount.

Most mount drops have a less than 1% drop rate. Good luck. May the odds be ever in your favor!!!

If there’s one thing I’ve learned in my life it’s that as long as you have no hope you can’t be disappointed.

So assuming today someone gets the mount, they upload their data to Wowhead, that makes one out of 254000 boxes for a mount, or, 0.0003% chance at getting the mount.

For this mount there are 15 days to farm it, if you farm say 10 character each day that will give you 150 attempts per year. Or a lowly 1693 years.

They need to up the drop rate on holiday mounts. It isn’t fair to the people that been trying to get for years and still has not got it yet.

Or instead put the mounts in the holiday store bought with holiday currency.

I did that 40 second dungeon about 3-5 times then I said to myself “wait a minute, sure it’s a rare mount, but it’s crappy mount.” So now I honestly couldn’t care less.

Just make holiday mounts go up on the holiday vender. Insert number of love cards you want that rocket mount to be worth.

I passed on farming the mount this year. After all this time I just can’t bring myself to care about it any more.

Hey.
Remember in MoP When Blizzard said “NAH DONT WORRY GUYS. SHA DROPS HIS MOUNT. ITS JUST SUPER RARE”
and we were all like “oh ok ty for confirm.”
Then like a month later they were like “WHOOPS SORRY WE ACTUALLY FORGOT TO ACTIVATE IT ON THE LOOT TABLE LOOOOOL”

…I remember :c

Agreed.

I’m looking at you, Headless Horseman’s Mount.

My wife got it about 10 years ago…me though? Nope, it’s never going to drop for me. Sad thing is that I don’t think she has ever actually summoned it.

I mean rare is fine but it should drop even at 0.3% or whatever odds.

hey, wait i got a new complaint

When this mount was introduced there weren’t 6000 mounts in game so it was cool and unique. They’ve so overfocused on pushing out more and more mounts I don’t care anymore, I’ll just use a wind rider.

Please also understand that we do not have access to the complete set of information regarding those 254000 data entries about the openings of the Heart-shaped boxes. What level of characters opened those boxes? If they are not of the correct level (which for the 2019 event, must be 110 or greater), they have absolutely 0% chance of receiving a mount. My assumption here is that the WoWhead addon reports everything its grubby little eyeballs can.

I agree that the drop % of this mount sucks. I also believe that the drop statistics from WoWhead are horribly skewed and incomplete.
