I can tell you what they are going to say … “We have heard player concerns about the drop rate of event mounts and understand player frustration. We are looking at implementing changes, but unfortunately these will not be in time for the 2022 …. I mean 2023 event.”
Then there’s my wife, the worlds most casual player, never raids, never does dungeons, who has the luck of the gods.
Day 1 of the Love is in the Air - Hey hun, look at this rocket mount I got, you should get that, it’s really easy.
Pandaria launches. Hey hon, this warband dropped this mount, Son of… something. It was really easy, you should get it. I was gathering herbs and it spawned next to me, some other people helped me fight it, they sure are nice!
Wrath launched, about a week later, hey I was flying around and I saw this dragon. Some people helped me kill it, and I got this timelost drake, you should get that!
I swear, she has like every world drop mount and gets them all on the first or second try.
Have a guildmate like that…he got Love rocket the first year it was out then a couple years later he got a 2nd drop of the Love Rocket…had the headless horsemen mount drop many times for him too…
I have the exact same experience. She gets on her Horseman mount just to taunt me.
The worst was when she had a super rare mount sitting in her bag for months before she noticed it.
“Honey, what is this? I have this weird thing in my bags…‘Reigns of the’…”
“Just delete your account and never talk to me again!”
LMAO…man I bet playing WoW in your house is like fielding an obstacle course sometimes LOL
All just nothing words and empty epathets they probably forgot just like they forgot the dance studio mentioned in wrath.
And the Ariel combat with Wintergrasp…that was even on the box that LK discs came in …I have the first original boxed printed I got it the night when it went live…
Same was at a GameStop waiting for the drop was a great time. Oh so many lost and forgotten promises…
Luckily I say that stuff while laughing wildly. We have a good time with it.
Yep same place I got mine that night…waiting in the rain…
Wrath launched, about a week later, hey I was flying around and I saw this dragon. Some people helped me kill it, and I got this timelost drake, you should get that!
I had a friend that told me this gold dragon was flying around her. “It looked different and was afraid it was going to kill me so I ran away from it”
Oh my sweet summer child…we had a good laugh about it.
Love is in the air of 2023 is almost here, any news? It’s been a year since you made this comment.
Yep, this isn’t fun. I’ve done the event a dozen times a day on my characters before in previous years and probably would be doing it again this year if I didn’t have other real-life stuff going on.
Right now, if you want to maximize your chance of getting the mount, it’s in your best interest to repeat this event every day on as many characters as possible. That’s… mathematically correct, but not a great experience.
We hear this frustration and the good news is that we’re discussing this issue amongst the team and evaluating possible solutions for holiday events in general. The bad news is that even if we do end up making changes, they wouldn’t be in time for this year’s Love Is In the Air holiday event.
The droprate is unreasonably low for something that can only be farmed 14 times per char each year.
I hope that they increase it.
Has chimes made any posts since his love rocket promise? Or was he silenced by blizz afterwards?
Haven’t seen any other posts from Chimes since then…
He had his forum privileges revoked by blizzard lol
Haven’t seen any other posts from Chimes since then…
Chimes was the one that said they were changing the 500 mount achieve from a Yeti to what ended up being the otter. So they’ve posted at least once more since.

Chimes? Please can we have an update?
Dude hasn’t even made it to a full year of employment and has 8 posts total. Honestly, he shouldn’t have posted anything, as he is literally low man on the totem pole.
It’s pretty bad blizz makes a blue post promising changes and here we are a year later and nothing
