Now that its 100%, the number of people in the area has dropped big time.
You probably will need to start using custom to make groups like they do with the other event bosses.
I still think making it a 100% drop was a stupid move. It’s drop rate was clearly relatively high judging by the number of drops that were happening before the change (I got both the toy and the mount before they made it 100%). Plus it forced people to actually kill it and it was fun seeing a bunch of people in-game for once as opposed to the dead zones we have now. It was like a nice reminder that people actually still played the game and not everyone had left for FF14.

yep, just glad i got it first day on my first kill made it more special to me vs having blizzard hand it to you now.
Perhaps. Or perhaps not.
Keep in mind that this specific model/recolor has been in the game files since TBC. This mount is absolutely nothing new.
So, being it 1%, a handful of folks would have gotten it. I, perhaps, would have ran Doomwalker for a few days on a few alts and not bother again .
Eh, Shadowlands world bosses probably have higher weekly kill count than Doomwalker.
This event is to celebrate WoW 17 years. All they added was 1 cape mog, 1 pet & used model. There is nothing exciting to make it worth grinding at 1%.

Or the server pop has just dropped that much and everyone already has it?
In a way I’m glad it wasn’t 100% at first. There’s no way I would have killed him enough to get the axe if not.
still bringing 29 characters just for the rarer gear drops. DH alt just got the Akama axe
presuming IRL holiday shopping is ongoing for the dip in participation numbers compared to yesterday
I still had zero issue getting an impromptu group together earlier even without the group finder. Just hung out at the CoT entrance and people showed up, once it was enough we pulled. I suspect by next week it will need the group finder though, unless it actually drops things besides the mount and toy, like the 220 gear I saw off some of the other special bosses I’ll keep going back for that.
Tbh I didn’t know there were other drops aside from the mount and toy I got yesterday. I don’t ever look into things and just did it for the quest that gave next to nothing lol
So the Akama sickle doesn’t exist? O.o This year was the mount, toy, pet and the unique agi axe drop from TW Doomwalker.
1% drop with a daily lockout means that everyone who had any alts would have had it. I had 55 attempts the first day before reset, and I hadn’t even done all my alts.
A rogue of mine got that.
I’m glad everyone can get it. It would be a shame to do it every day for the limited time and have bad RNG luck.
I had all my alts moved out there and started the very first day and was lucky to get the next day.
Honestly, I’d love to see a lot of rare drops be increased. I’ve done my fair sharing of camping and hunting. If someone else gets what I got, it doesn’t affect me in any way. When I see people talking about hunting mounts for years……I’m thinking that sounds awful.
My friend got Invincible after years of diligent farming. As much as he was excited, he was more relieved. I think it taking so very long just watered down the joy of the moment.
RIght. Akama weapon. That’s the only unique transmog they added.
To be honest, you only need like 3 60s to take him down.
a lot of those characters were just collectors with a buch of alts… it was wrong to move it to 100% drop, mount could have been moved to a vendor and the boss drop a currency so you can buy it after some farming of the boss. the problem with the previous drop rate was that it only benefits people with alts and new players or a player with 1 character maybe won’t get it for years (i did 71 attempts before fix, so it’s possible for a person to miss it for years)
