Or just casually do all the dailies in every single map (Zuldazar,Kultiras), for 2-3days and you will get it. That’s how I got mine.
No, but you are entitled to voice your dissatisfaction and question the motives behind what’s ultimately a cynical timegate behind a reward that people directly paid for. It doesn’t really inspire confidence in their game design going forward, either. I’m actually baffled that anybody is defending Blizzard on this. It’s a terrible idea, full stop. It serves no other utility than to artificially prevent people from accessing a paid reward.
I think the intention of the quest is for you to get it passively as you travel the world
However, you can grind it in a few hours if you want
Mine took almost 7 hours. Don’t know why, but it took longer than everyone else I was grouped with
Just gotta keep at it if you really want it
Hell, if they haven’t farmed for the Bee yet, they can kill two birds with one stone.
Got mine today took about three hours farming blood trolls
pretty sure this guy is trolling at this point.
pretty sure Girandzim hit the nail on the head with this one. no need for me to come back here - i’m allergic to the young entitled gamers of today. too bad MMO’s don’t have the same elements as RTS - where a gimme gimme gamer doesn’t get anything handed to them without earning it
oh well!
Unlike Ion, I don’t have to get carried when I do things. Sorry that I am not a petulant child stomping my feet like you are.
What makes it a cynical time gate? It takes an hour and some change. It’s not really a time gate in that way. It doesn’t cap you on how many you can earn per week, so it isn’t a time gate in that way. You didn’t pay for the transmog. You paid for the mount, the pet, the month of game time, the character boost and the expansions. The transmog was a fun little free thing that Blizzard thought would be neat.
R N G dude. Ive spend an hour on a stupid get 15 meat quest once where my friend got all of his in 5minutes and I spend just over an hour doing the same because they didnt wanna drop for me.
So yeah dont be so elitest.
Mine took 3.5 hours to grind up. At first I thought you got one faster if you let your HP drop under half while killing a bunch at once… you know “Your soul wanders closer to the shadowlands” or something like that but I guess that’s too clever for blizz… NOPE just a straight out awful grind.
Yeah I’ll get right on that lmao. I spent 4-5 hours last night farming the blood trolls and got a total of 7. Nearly every group I’ve joined has been complaining about the terrible drop rate and people are talking about how low it is on Wowhead.
It was just as much a part of the package as the mount and the pet. And I’m sorry to tell you this, but if it legitimately took you an hour, you’re an extreme outlier. I got the set after farming for eight hours straight, and I actually beat someone to the punch who was ahead of me when we started. Don’t use your experience as a metric when the overwhelming consensus is that the drop rate is immensely low and the process takes hours. At that point you’re just being dishonest.
BTW it wasn’t fun. It was excruciating and very very pointless. I don’t see what the point is in making people farm for it, especially with such a low droprate.
What the hell are you talking about? Entitled? Wanting something without earning it? I GAVE THEM MONEY FOR THIS.
If I go to the grocery store and buy 80 bucks worth of groceries, and the cashier tells me I can have 1 item per day over the course of the next 3 weeks - if I get mad at that does that mean I’m entitled? No. I want what I paid for and I don’t think it should be behind some gross arbitrary gate without any sort of warning.
This isn’t some in-game event that I’m whining about. You can defend this all you want (for whatever reason), but the majority of us think this is absurd. The 40 man raid groups I’ve been in today are all expressing the exact same frustration. I guess we’re all entitled and whiny for wanting something after we paid money for it! Shame on us! lawl
are you comparing buying groceries to pre ordering a game?
like they aren’t even the same paradigm…
also if you get upset or mad about a financial decision you made in a video game, that’s honestly your problem…why are you here trying to get sympathy from the rest of us? you spent $80 on a transmog…like…do you see the problem with that? lol
I think you should read Girandzim’s post a little more carefully. He explained in detail what you got for that $80 purchase.
and yes you’re coming off as a young entitled gamer of today with how you’re carrying yourself, and how you open your opinion to discussion then come down on anyone that opposes you in an open forum.
like what’s the point of this thread at this point? if you have a direct issue with blizz, why not get in contact with customer service or something? lol
he actually did turn me on a bit with his posts shutting down your qq’ing…so yeah nevermind my personal crushes okay?
it’s not horrible RNG, you’re just having bad luck it seems…like it was mentioned, several people have gotten the transmog already because their strategy in pursuing it was better than yours…maybe learn to ask questions before complaining? that would be a good start.
basically to me it’s the entitled crybaby that retorts to namecalling and getting super angry on forums when someone disagrees with them. that’s what i meant by that.
and i bet i’m in the minority - because most intelligent people don’t pay $80 for a transmog…lol…
You are missing an opportunity by being mean to them, you could sell this guy the same item over and over and promise you will give it to him eventually! This is great, the types that reply to Nigerian prince scams are real! This is like finding out santa actually exists!
What “better strategy”? It keeps getting thrown around, but nobody ever elaborates. Everything at the Blood Gate dies instantly - loot - repeat. How can this possibly get more efficient? The entire zone can’t die faster than it already is.
Please, oh wise one, enlighten us YOUNG ENTITLED GAMERS with your bountiful knowledge!
grab a juice and chill out man, there’s no reason to get this upset - it’s gonna be okay and you’re gonna get your transmog…geeze lol
Then why post on the forums about it?
Then they probably shouldn’t have charged $60-80 for it. It should have been a baseline thing.
I swear to god if I see one more person say “You shouldn’t have expected to get it in one day or two” I may scream.
People paid an extra $20-40 for the transmog set. There’s literally no reason the drop rate on this quest should be this freaking low.
i didn’t know that’s how much they charged for pre-purchases.
I always order physical CE’s and i only have to put down like $10. Good thing I don’t do the digital thing.
what if they want it to be low? like has anyone considered that? lol
