Store mounts in tbc yep I'm done

Wow always has these long cycles. I think they are getting worse overall in terms of there content windows and that was before covid. The expansions windows are even worse.

I really enjoyed Hanz and Franz, and Operator, and the Iron Maidens, and the whole Blackrock aesthetic done right too much to let Lei’shen edge it out for number 1, but it is a very very close 2nd.

My “ugh, this guy…” was Tortos. Neat mechanic, annoying AF. I’ll take Heroic Dark Animus over kicking shells.

i wish whoever designed mythic black furnace… i can’t even say. forum ban inc.

Right so it’s a good thing that the boost doesn’t let you avoid end game now isn’t it?

he just could’ve said “muh panties in a twist muh boost”

edit: i’ve never boosted a class that i haven’t leveled to at least 80-90ish pre squish. my warrior was 80 something. boosted him. had a gnome mage i hated that i deleted in the 90s. boosted a nightborne mage. every other class i’ve leveled “normally” through the years. multiple times.

Please report these threads, nowhere does it say this is a store mount. These threads are spam, close them

I never cared for the whole “orcs in iron” look, which that combined with Warlords being the first time I experienced massive burnout probably skewed my perception of BRF. everyone else seems to regard it with such high praise but I just look at it and go “ugh…”

Hanz and Franz are fun though

There is no, “way it’s meant to be played” just because you play a certain way, doesn’t mean that’s what it was “MEANT” to be…

as someone who has only done lfr/mog runs of most raids… brf is one of my favorites. except mythic blast furnace, specifically. takes 30495890348593845 years to solo it. and a friend of mine had me take every lowbie she had within the appropriate level range through it to get mog. to the point my other forum friend was convinced i did nothing else in the gam, at all.

Black, brutal looking metal with flame undertones just hits a lot of sweet spots for me. Plus it blends well with all the Black Dragonflight stuff and Dark Iron Dwarf stuff… just so nice.

The Orcs-as-peaceful-Shaman thing is lame and not my liking, and while it fits the Orcs, I’ve never been a fan of the barbarian-esque aesthetic.

As was expected for expansions inbetween Patches, but it also has a higher surge of new players at the beginning meaning they’re still sitting higher than they were.

It’s not a death flail. The population rising and falling is expected inbetween content. Same thing happens to Classic too.

I don’t know what people have uncovered today and maybe I’m out of the loop. It seems to me this is the boost mount Blizzard talked about at Blizzcon…which makes it even worse.

Remember when boosts were for friends to catch-up with their buddies without having to do content they don’t like? Or people who’ve done 1-58 already and don’t want to do it again? Nah, gotta further entice people with a mount tacked on.

do you think boosts came without mounts? they somehow got every riding for free up to 280% flying but nothing at all to ride around on?

oh no a company is trying to make money with something that won’t hurt anyones experience, the horror

just wait til he finds out about the trash 500g the boosts usually come with. “muh p2w. you should EARN your gold. blah blah blah”

basically, a warpstalker mount got datamined in the TBC Classic files and everyone is losing their collective sh*t over “HOW COULD THEY DO THIS IT’S A STORE MOUNT REEEEEEEEE” with absolutely no hint whatsoever that it’s even going to make it to live at all, let alone be a store mount

Just assumed it was a mount that already existed in the game. But if you think putting a brand new spanking mount they know will get players to buy a boost for reasons other than they stated isn’t a bit shady…

It’s no surprise though. Classic TBC is nothing but a means by which to milk the playerbase. That’s becoming clearer and clearer.

Maybe it’s a mount for the level boost characters?

Rather than starting everyone with a randomly selected white, black, brown mount etc. They just do a level 40 speed warpburger monster.

lol, two taurens discussing milking things. I love WoW.

they’ve since moved the goal posts to whining about how the mount is actually not total crap and it should be so it won’t make them feel bad about not buying the boost. keep up.
