Got a quick question about how the game will “award” people with the mounts from mythic Jaina and N’Zoth:
Is it truly a random roll where 2 out of all the people who don’t have it yet will get it or do the first 2 looters get it every time? It might just be confirmation bias, but the last 2 weeks I did it in a pug the mount loots were right at the top of the chat log.
Thanks in advance
If you saw it at the top of the chat log, that’s probably because it’s a different type of personal loot than normal drops. If you get a raid mount it will appear directly in your bag.
You see raid groups now selling the mount. All the members of that team who want the mount have it, and they can trade to the carry. Who probably paid millions.
I’m fairly certain you don’t even loot the boss. It gets instantly thrown in your inventory on killing the boss. Could be wrong though.
For the Jaina Mount at least, you have to loot it. In a raid group of 20ppl, as long as two people don’t have the mount, you’ll get it when you loot the boss. You may also trade it to others. Not sure about the newest Mythic mount though. I believe it’s the same.
two people who do not yet have the mount will get it randomly (assuming there are 2 in the group who don’t have it)
I can confirm you don’t need to be the one of the first two ppl looting at least for Jaina. I got it and half the raid had already opened the chest.
Completely RNG who gets it.
Looting it first has no impact whatsoever.
