i think horde got that for free and ally had to buy it was it not a promotional?
Iām aware of that. Iām asking what the OP was doing that they got awarded the mount now, years after the promotion.
I think OP just logged in on the oldest character that probably was flagged to receive the award, after he logged on remix.
I got many achievements on many characters well, I think the warbands script activated that.
I wonāt look a gift horse in the mouth.
I got it too randomly on an account that im pretty sure didnt even exist in mop.
It is WoD.
This mount was an achievement for players logged in during a period of time during WoD:
Only for horde players, and Blizzard never revisited this again to make it available to other players.
You guys need to get the rights back to the Warlords Deathwheel.
if they recolor it and add a few spikes here and there they can just slap it on the trading post
after all, itās a different bike isnāt it?
I mean, itās Horde theme so recoloring kind of kill the point.
itās also a unique model though
How does one put an artifact in game that they donāt own the rights to it.
Crazy aināt it
Itās not that they donāt have any rights to it per se, but rather legal rules regarding prizes and sweepstakes.
So congrats to OP on the mount.
This kind of gives me hope.
Any chance checking on Breaker of the Black Harvest and it bugging out on WoD Pre-patch launch? Still feels really bad that I worked my butt off back in 2014 to get it only for the pre-patch to bug out and lose the FoS and title.
That āperiod of time during WoDā was actually the end of MoP. The mount was rewarded after WoD pre-patch to people who logged in at the end of MoP. Wowhead comments say it was anyone who logged in between July 24 and September 30, 2014. WoD pre-patch was October 14 and the actual release of WoD was November 13, 2014.
I have a problem with the concept of it being tied specifically to characters that logged in. What if people deleted old characters that they didnāt like? I started with a paladin during Draenor, disliked the class, and after trying a few others eventually switched to warlock by the time Legion started. After the level-squashes, a lot of my characters were really low level and I deleted them because there didnāt seem to be a point in keeping them.
Itās not tied to characters, it was granted to your account if you were eligible.
Iāve been theorizing for a while now if some statute of limitation would expire at the 10 year mark.
People were saying stuff about logging into their oldest characters, so I wasnāt sure.
Still tho, I played during Draenor. Seems like I would have qualified.
Rough luck?
It isnt a common occurrence. Ive a bugged character that has zero argent tournament progression yet has all the mounts from it from a error during a realm transfer.
Its extremely uncommon to have it both occur and be resolved
Canāt wait until whatever legal crap thatās blocking its release expires.
