This shoulda been the Legend reward in shuffle
Really strange how low res both the mount and the pet are, especially when this comes barely even a week after releasing the Wonderous Wavewhisker. Not to mention the clipping issue it has when performing its idle animation. I also feel like it could be a tad larger. It’s a Kodo that’s meant to be capable of demolishing a wall. I’m not asking for Clefthoof sizes, but even the default Kodos feel slightly larger than it.
Conceptually, I really do like it. But a touch up or three would be greatly beneficial.

This doesn’t look like a store mount. Especially compared to the gorgeous fish released only a few days ago prior.
And I’m pretty sure when this mount was first datamined, it costed Trader’s Tenders.
This is a Trading Post mount. And I probably would’ve skipped it even if it was there.

Those are some deep-fried looking textures, good lord.

I’m not paying Blizzard one more dime until they fix content they actually advertise, i.e. the time rifts.
The low quality textures really show because the kodo’s face looks fine, but the armor and saddle look super low-res. Not sure why it was shipped like this.
And the clipping when it turns its head into the shoulder spears is not great.
I too feel this mount needs a touch up, and I wish it had been earned ingame. The fish last week looks great and I’m ok with some store mounts but releasing 2 in a week’s span and 1 being really low quality is not a good look.

could you please confirm whether or not these might show up in the Trading Post at a later date, similar to how the Medivh transmog pack had a note saying it would return?
also if we could get any details on what ‘Limited Time’ means, it would be appreciated by collectors, thank you!

This is still really cute (a little low-res looking). I saw it and thought that’s cute and I wish it wasn’t a store mount. Likely I will end up with it anyway, but it certainly could have been an earned kodo (like the darkshore kodo).
With a total of 3 polygons and textures from MS paint! But hey it’s going to make you a boatload this thread wants to eat up your low effort garbage so not much to say.
Blizzard’s new cadence over quality is showing in every aspect of WoW, pretty sad.
I had a feeling the comments in this thread were going to be less than positive when I saw a Blizz post about a new Kodo skeleton mount. That’s not the easiest one to work with, it seems like every time they do something with it people get mad lol
I feel like some people in here are just brown nosing, making the positive feedback in here even more minimal.
I find it difficult to believe anybody would throw money at this mount in an excited manner, they basically put some steel armor on a low-textured rock and priced it for like $25. There’s no way people are that much of a sap.

I am a huge Kodo fan… and… uh.
There’s a bit too much going on.
It just looks like a blob.
Nice style on all the parts, but just a bit too much :C

Eh. I normally don’t care when they add a cash shop mount. Sometimes I even buy it. That’s 2 in under a week though, while some of the latest patch’s major features continue to be broken with no ETA on a fix. Poor timing more than anything, I guess.

Marketing and dev teams work separately. These things are lined up ahead of time, regardless of how poorly the devs are doing to address new features and issues.
That being said, this low-res mount needs to be redone in better textures and re-released. This is just bad.
