Yea I grinded out so much gold for MoP mounts on BMAH, TCG mounts on BMAH and 5 million for Longboi cause they made it very clear it was leaving the game and I rushed to farm enough gold for it the day before it was removed. Blizzard is bleeding players so much these days that this is their way of trying to salvage it. Its more than a slap in the face to OG players and I spent close to 50 million gold that I farmed and never bought to earn that cool prestige of having em. I am actually done with wow after this one. I am only lingering around till I can cash out all my gold for bnet balance and of course I can’t even do that…
Dornogal is overran by these things did they have to be massive dinosaurs
No creativity to make a new mount, just bleach and wash and recolor old crap. Not even worth 25.00 let alone 90.00. People that buy this are FOMO and the only time you’ll probably see them with it out is IN A CITY with an AH and 18 mailboxes already.
They made this when zack got banned on Twitch so he can’t rage about it to thousands of people, Genius.
Even better they cut off the token market so you can spam tokens to get it for free.
We got rid of bobby for someone even more smarter at snaking customer cash
Anything else would have required work. Now, they only needed to change the color and the armor of the original one. Easy money.
I logged into Area-52 and saw a walking train of about 20-25 of em and just laughed. 20+ years playing for me and I am actually out after this. Blizzard is hocking a fatty loogie right in the face of their loyal OG players who earned all these they way they were released and intended.
Oh come on Blizz. Only 90 dollars?
Really come on are you really gonna let yourselves be beaten by Riot who sold a 500 dollar skin to people.
You have a community filled with Zealots for your game, come on take advantage of them they’ll buy literally anything.
Right? Wild nonsense to pull as part of the anniversary celebration.
Now that I’ve logged on this evening and I see them running around… I’m having second thoughts.
It has a male orc and a female human passenger? Really? And the gildedness… it’s overly gaudy. I … would actually prefer to spend 5M gold on the original. Please put him back on the vendor.
Awwww how cute, you think you’ve earned my $90+. When you fix all these god damn bugs then MAYBE I’ll consider. Until then get bent.
May as well right?
But how does this earn Blizzard 90 dollars?
This just embodies how out of touch blizzard has become with the player base. To anyone who bought the 5M mount this is a slap in their faces. Is the rooster or spectral tiger next? Blizzard had a chance to do something fun, enjoyable, and affordable for the community for the 20th, and you chose an easy out, slapped a new skin on a highly sought after mount that was suppose to be rare, and charge more than the cost of the game. EZ L Blizzard. EZ L.
I expect these are coming to the Trading Post…
Well here is your chance now to get the Long Boi with AH and mail …many claimed and posted years back they would pay real cash for this mount since it was removed from the game at the end of BfA…well here you go now $90 dollars and you got you a Long Boi finally…so stop complaining its what many asked for and kept asking for it when Long Boi was removed from vendor during BfA…
I’d believe it at this point. The mount is clearly selling, people are buying up tokens, more people are talking about buying tokens to sell since the price is going up. Madness.
Truly thought this would be more of a turn off for players, but people are throwing cash all over Blizzard for this.
Your making it up you spent about $800 dollars to buy the first Long boi…nah not buying it …
I expect something bigger next time maybe a 800 dollar bundle.
It could include a mount with Auction House, Transmog, and an upgrade NPC so you don’t need to travel back to town to upgrade your gear.
Then it could also include a battle pet that acted like a mailbox/repair merchant.
Then include a toy that summons the Catalyst so you don’t need to travel to town to change your gear to tier.
The mount itself needs to allow you to gather while riding and it’s a regular flying mount but travels at dragon riding speed.
I highly doubt you’ll see the Spectral mounts in the trading post matter fact IO pretty hinted that they won’t be …
