Increase the Brutosaur Spawn Rate on the BMAH

Hey Blizz,

Currently, we’re seeing around a couple Brutos a week in the entire region.

At this rate, we’re looking at seeing around 100-ish Brutos in the region, and it’s very probable that there will be numerous realms that will never see a Bruto on the BMAH for a year or more as a result.

How about increasing its spawn rate so each realm has a realistic chance of seeing it more than none or once a year?

It must be nice to have literally millions of gold to waste.

To think they could’ve saved so much by just buying it when it was in the game.

To think they could save 10mil by just using an AH toon, or by porting to valdrakken

That’s peanuts.

I already do. I dedicate that account to AH’ing, Trade chat, and a cross-realm BMAH taxi service.

I mean I get it, I’m not WoW broke by what I imagine to be most of the playerbase. I’m sitting on one toon at gold cap, but still I wouldn’t even think about buying that mount for double what it originally went for. Does it look cool? Sure. 10mil cool? Nah.

I’ll say it again I got mine during BfA and didn’t buy it cause of the AH …I brought my Long Boi purely for its looks and size…I had a alt AH/Bank already set up in game since 2008…and I still say put the damn Long Boi back on the Vendor it was damn wrong to remove it in the first place.

I think of the mighty caravan brutosaur more of like a unicorn car like 67 shelby gt500 mustang. At some point its no longer about it being practical it just something one wants because its just out of reach and its just got this cool factor around it.
I’ve been debating on if I ever hit gold cap would I drop 10 million gold on the mighty caravan brutosaur? Most likely yes. WoW is a game and life is short why not live alittle in game.

I’d much rather they just return the bruto to the vendor. As someone with the mount already, 5 mil gold is already enough of an obstacle, let the people have their long necked friends.

There’s four recolors currently.

I still haven’t seen it. And I do check most days. I have seen most other mounts appear multiple times over the past three years but never a Bruto. So, it’s pretty clear that it’s not treated the same as other mounts in the BMAH. Knowing that now, I might have bought a few tokens to get me over the 5 mil at the end of BfA. But at the same time I’m doing fine and 5 mil richer, currently.

It’s likely you won’t see it at all for a year or so. This 1-2 every week for the entire region is pretty absurd. I’m sure it doesn’t help that slots are taken up by Ordos necks, or all the items that are still obtainable in the game but dumped on the BMAH for who knows what reason.

They could make a killing if they offered it in the shop.

How about get rid of the BMAH entirely, and bring it back to an npc who sells it. That sounds like a better idea.

Not quite, it takes time to game the WoW economy. So the inverse implies you probably have a lot of time for other meaningful things.

I agree 110% Its BS

An auction house is usually under a minute away from me. If I really cared to play the auction house that much I would be permanently parked there in some form, which makes the mount somewhat useless to me.

That being said, people keep asking for its return, and hopefully they get their wish at some point.

Personally Blizz should just reinstate the Bruto back onto the vendor or release a similar AH mount but DF themed. Like if you have gold cap to buy it from the AH just make it 10 million on a vendor and give people something to start farming for. Vendor mounts should not be removed from vendors. Makes no sense. Its not a limited time achievement or skill based thing. Its just a mount on a vendor. I know so many people who tried for months, farming their way to buy it only to lose out because they fell short by the deadline.

I prefer my Yak. Transmog > AH vendor.
