Mount drop question

[Aqure-westfall]

well I am sort of glad they don’t drop the mounts because I went and bought them off the vendor and I was going to have huge regret if they dropped for me after.

[Mystborn-icecrown (Mystborn)]

Can anyone confirm if pets and toys drop from rares and/or bosses?

If I do remix LFR ToT, can the Living Fluid pet drop off of Primordius?
Do the rares in Timeless Isle remix drop the items required for Going to Need a Bigger Bag?

A blue post confirming exactly how this works and what does and does not drop would be really appreciated. Right now the answer seems to be “maybe yes but maybe no,” because some items are dropping (my bf has seen the Eternal Kiln drop twice) and not others. I don’t want to spend time farming something that doesn’t even drop (pets especially, since those can’t be purchased).

Would have been lovely if you guys had clarified this in advance.

[Aqure-westfall]

I got a pet off Bufo on timeless isle so I would have to assume the others are available as well but I can’t guarantee because I have very few rare kills there

[Foxmulder-the-venture-co]

kinda weird the toys can drop, but not mounts

@Kaivax

quests drop their original loot

That doesn’t seem entirely true. For example, I just tested that out and this was the situation for one quest in the Jade Forest:

Mother Hanae offers a quest, in original MoP the reward is:

And in the Remix it is this:

I may be nitpicking but there does seem to be a lack of clarity of just what drops from where, in relation to the differences between the Remix and the original.

I can soft confirm it. Been running ToT daily as I find it a quick jaunt for bronze and in every 10 man clear of heroic ive not seen a single pet drop. While the toy might drop off the snail statistically it is a near impossibility for me to not have seen a pet drop. Not get it myself but to have at least seen it happen.

In the Valley of the 4 winds you get stuff like

• Puntable marmot
• Turnip paint gun
• Turnip punching bag

etc.

[Mystborn-icecrown (Mystborn)]

Now I’m getting conflicting info. Two people said they saw pet drops from Bufo and Primordius LFR. Now you are saying nothing has dropped when statistically it should have by now. So the answer seems to be that some pets drop, and others don’t.

@Kaivax would be really excellent to get some clarification about what exactly can drop and what cannot, particularly with regards to pets and items required for Going To Need A Bigger Bag (minus the mount off Huolon, obviously)

Also worth noting you still need to actually loot a pet for it to count for Going To Need A Bigger Bag, buying or trading the pet doesn’t count… I suppose that’s a separate issue but still one I would appreciate being revisited given the difficulty of obtaining anything from a rare that requires farming to spawn, spawns in multiple locations, and dies immediately.

[Thummum-blackwater-raiders (Thummum)]

The B.F.F. necklace toy is available from the rare that drops it. (In remix)

[Goatbreeder-frostmourne]

You previously literally said they would drop in remix?

Pandamonium clarification

You will create new Remix characters (Timerunners) for this event on whichever realms you choose. So that can be the realm on which you mainly play, and it can be realms where you have some alts, and it can be a realm that’s completely new to you. When you select a Timerunner and hit ‘Enter World’, you’ll enter the Remix world and play there starting at level 10. After the event ends, your Timerunners will be converted into standard characters and you’ll have them available to you in the charac…

there’s zero ambiguity here

@Kaivax

On the other hand, Rare drops that are available in Dragonflight today, such as the Son of Galleon or the Astral Cloud Serpent, will drop in Remix and can be purchased by Remix characters using the Bronze currency.

I am pretty certain raid pets don’t drop pets and sounds a lot like “I got my mount from a world boss last week.” Some timeless isle items drop I don’t know about pets tbh. I know the weatherstones and brazier do.

[Nasdaral-wyrmrest-accord]

can you tell us why you guys even ran an ad on your Twitter that showed people killing Oondasta, before showing a player on the Cobalt Direhorn before saying the loot is the real treasure? Under a tweet that said “Revisit the Isle of Giants and group up against the legendary Oondasta!”?

Edit: really not a fan of being told to go kill the boss on Dragonflight in order to get a chance at a drop.

I may be nitpicking but there does seem to be a lack of clarity of just what drops from where, in relation to the differences between the Remix and the original.

If you’ve got an armor class that hasn’t completed that quest on live, then bring that same armor class to that quest in Remix and complete it, do you get the appearances that you ‘should’ have gotten, had you done it on retail?

[Kneeshooter-amanthul (Kneeshooter)]

I suppose I could take along a DK and see if it got offered anything in the Remix, but I suspect it would also just get the Bronze.

[Runata-chaos-bolt]

The incompetence of the remix team is staggering…

[Runata-chaos-bolt]

You think they have any idea what they are doing? This whole event is a trash fire and they know it.

Yes, you do.

[Bgored-dalaran (Bgored)]

@Kaivax

In Remix, yes. But don’t forget that you can go pummel those same bosses on your Dragonflight characters.
A basic rule-of-thumb for Remix is: quests drop their original loot, but bosses do not.

Yea, that is just great. But you know what else would be great? While you are in MoP Remix those mounts should drop at a higher rate because it is considered “the current expansion”. Not like the 1% that they are dropping on Retail.

You people are really ignorant to every aspect of gameplay.

When MoP was “the current expansion” those 1% drop rates were 0.1%.

Blizzard only increased them recently too…

@Linxy

The drop chances for Son of Galleon’s Saddle, Reins of the Heavenly Onyx Cloud Serpent, Reins of the Cobalt Primordial Direhorn, Reins of the Thundering Cobalt Cloud Serpent, and Solar Spirehawk have been greatly increased.

@Bgored-dalaran

So, I’m going to assert that you are the ignorant one.
