I can’t link it due to forum censorship, but the slime kitty from back in patch 9.2.5 of SL (which was originally a reward from doing all the SL raids in S4 on fated difficulty) came bugged right out of the box. The bug? It split the characters legs into an almost 180 degree position, looking comical and stupid. Yes, it was reported at the time. This was a brand new reward that was quite difficult to get for a lot players who don’t raid. This all went down back in July of 2022. Yes. yes, they made the mount trivial to get in DF S4 with bullion. But that only makes things worse since then it became far more accessible to many more players who would therefore be exposed to the bug, which only serves to further illustrate my point.
Fast forward to
So it’s taken till patch 11.05 in October of 2024 for this to finally get fixed??? That’s a timeline of 2 years and 3 months to fix!
I understand that sometimes the blizz devs have bigger fish to fry. That’s fine. I’m not saying it should be treated as some top priority issue. But this was originally a “prestige” reward for something not a lot of players could do at the time when it was actually current content. For this to remain bugged for this long is pretty sad for a subscription game we pay monthly for. Is this the timeline we should be expecting going forward? Cosmetic bugs that affect (originally) harder to obtain rewards that just come bugged straight out of the box? Just wait a little over 2 years???
How long until the roughly 200-300 mounts you broke in 11.0 get fixed??? At about 2 years per mount, am I looking at a timeline of about 500 years???
SMH.
P.S. Thanks for fixing it though…
