Wasn’t there something wrong with corpse eater initially? I kind of figured I’d wait to take my toons out there until later this week… Just in case there are any “oops, we messed up with the drop table” moments. Since we can only kill this dino once every few weeks, I thought it better to be safe than sorry lol.
I’ve killed Rustfeather over 320 times. Go get the other Alpacca’s they’re easier.
Damn that sucks.
Yea, lots of people farm for a while for those. Makes it rewarding when it finally drops. Also, there are two very easily obtainable alpaca mounts already.
I am not triggered by people using it (Unless triggered = unpleasant), nor do I get mad at them, as I stated I know they meant no harm.
I also stated I am no angel and make the same mistakes, not with that word but another. (most likely worse than using cancer out of context)
Yes I do know there are multiple meanings. I just think comparing a disappointing time in a video game to such a horrific disease is inappropriate.
The expression has become popular so I hold no animosity towards the people who use it. It’s more of a cringy thing for me.
You could very well be right, I probably am overreacting. Not everyone afflicted by the disease may feel the same way though.
I am very sorry to hear you have to deal with such a serious affliction. I really hope your prognosis is favorable.
I kind of wish I had not made the post now.
This is why I’m not concerned at all about getting Mollie. The springfur one is near identical in fur color and saddle/lantern color. I have the other two so I’ll just casually go after the 3rd.
I didn’t realize the WB was up yet. The drop rate is terrible!
Don’t stress about it. Your post, my post, the word “cancer” and the OP’s title is not a big deal. The disease itself is the big deal.
It just never fails. Someone will get frustrated and say “such n such is cancer.” Someone follows up with a post just like yours. Seeing the word, or seeing someone defend someone like me, doesn’t make me feel better or worse.
To me it’s just like someone say “I’m going to murder you!” Nobody cares anymore but murder is still pretty damn serious
ANYWAYS
I think the more important topic is whether or not you can bonus roll Mollie. Anyone know?
It’s drop rate is not Sha level bad as I killed the boss 14 times yesterday and saw it drop three times and could easily be higher as I was not in a group half the time.
This made me LOL because after almost a decade the Vortex Pinnacle mount finally dropped for me today.
But still no Mim’s Head
What mount I’d this is? From where? Should I care?
I am SO sick of ICC. Still don’t have that stupid invisible horse! Ugh man.
It’s a cute alpaca mount named Mollie from the Vol’dun world boss.
10-15% drop rate is about the minimum it should be.
0.3% is significantly less than 10-15.
Mollie is by far the best looking of the tints. The one in uldum is awful, and the black one is merely okay, but Mollie is, in the absence of the white tints, the best looking one of the three.
Naturally it’s the one that’s locked behind an impenetrable RNG barrier. Thanks, blorz.
You’re mistaking “rewarding” for “relieving.”
As in you’re relieved you can finally stop torturing yourself with abysmal RNG vs. feeling rewarded that you completed some difficult and challenging task.
Hey, I’m sorry for being insensitive about it. I’ll try and do better in the future, but for now, thread title changed.
What a fine gesture! I have to say I did not see that coming.
However as Tovi said I may have taken it too far and I really have no business wagging my finger at anyone. We all have out little moments when we say or do something that can be seen as insensitive when our message or actions had no intentions on doing so.
I guess I will explain a bit. Years ago I was an R.N. (I would be making sweet $$ if I did not give it up) Anyways I was able to stick to the golden rule “don’t get emotionally involved with your patients”. I was only 28 and I was just married.
However at the age of 30 I suffered a massive heart attack that killed me, which just so happened to be the day my wife was schedule for a C section for the birth of our second child. So the day Abbi was born was the day I literally died
Anyhow after healing up I went back to work. A very large part of my job was taking care of people in their homes, so they could die in the peace of their home.
After my heart attack though something was broken in my head, that barrier, the golden rule…don’t get emotionally involved.
I kept at my job taking care of the elderly with cancer, mothers, fathers and children with cancer. I was just surrounded by it. Befriending people only to watch them die. The straw that broke this R.N’s back was a day I went into take care of a man his mid-30’s, who had liver cancer that metastasized to his lungs and more importantly to his brain. He had a wife and 3 beautiful daughters, I would say between the ages of 3 and 6.
He was often incoherent and confused but every now and then he would become present. Speaking and acting normally. Albeit those episodes were brief.
So the very last time I visited this gentleman, (I remember this so vividly), as I walked into their house, I could see his silhouette up against the back sliding patio doors, the sun was shining in revealing all the hairs on his arm standing up. His daughters were running around him saying daddy daddy, one of them holding a coloring book to show him. I thought he is having a lucid moment that’s great, however as I approached I could see this lucid moment was nothing but heartbreak as his eyes watered and a tear came down his cheek.
I instantly put myself in his shoes, connecting it him to the day I died, and the amount of pain, fear, and sympathy I felt for this man became so overwhelming that I had to turn around and say I had forgotten some supplies in the car. It took me everything to hold the lump in my throat back. The moment I was done I went straight home and I could not stop the tears.
That was the beginning of the end of my career as an R.N.
….and this is why I hate the word cancer so much.
Wait that actually happened?
I must of gotten really lucky lmao got it first kill in between doing world quests.
I saw it drop twice in groups I was in.
Unfortunately, neither of them were for me.
Headless horseman… year after year after year… thousands of kills literally THOUSANDS of kills pre-bag… no mount to even roll on. Few hundred eligible kills post-bag… no mount.

Losing anyone because they decided .05 instead of 1.0 for a drop rate is unnecessary.
