Upgrade to a 12-Month World of Warcraft® Subscription and Get More!

You can buy the 12 month package. (I did).

What this means is that you will not receive the Mana Wyrm or whatever its called mount if you already own it. (They won’t give duplicate items).

My sub ran out Feb 2023. This make it so it runs out Feb 2024 for me, so it just adds 12 months.

now this is /spit worthy

i’ll buy it if the drake is available for DF as well

looks nice :100:

I don’t think this is correct? I could be totally be wrong, I admit. It’s definitely true for people who don’t currently have paid time on their sub, but I think it’s always been the case that changing your sub means you’ll be billed when your current time runs out.

I could totally be wrong though. Not like I’d be surprised if Blizz decided to be shady and charged me now for something that won’t start until March, in my case.

Which is silly. They really should just go back to how it was handled with the Dreadwake - based on Game Time purchased, not strictly subscriptions.

If someone buys 12 months of game time at once, they should get the promo as well. Not just people who do a 12 month subscription.

I understand they think Subscription = Omg it’s going to recur, but it’s not. Most are immediately cancelling it.

Meanwhile, they’re alienating players who also support them longterm by buying 6-12 month game time for a one time purchase, which is wrong.


Either way, these promos never bother me. My only concern with this one is will those 2 mounts go to the Blizzard STore eventually.

Because every promo has either said they are exclusive (like Tyrael’s) or they will eventually go to the Blizzard Store (like every 6 month mount).

But there’s no text either way on this.

I agree. I suspect they do it for some sort of statistics they value. To me it does not matter. Pay a year of game time with cards, tokens, whatever - get rewards. Do it with a sub get rewards a lot cheaper.

The only exception I sort of see is if they had a major fraud issue with Dreadwake that was not public and that is why they have not allowed it again.

Same, as I’m still going to buy month to month with WoW Tokens regardless. I liked the Dreadwake because it encouraged me to buy it all at once instead of month to month.

But I still wanna know if these mounts will be made separately. Cause that beetle is amazing.

And to be frank, I’ll be severely disappointed in Blizzard if they essentially paywall 2 mounts behind a $150 upfront fee.

This is what I am hoping for…I am not really playing WotLK Classic to care for the other stuff…and personally I have been subbed since 2004…don’t really feel like dropping a Lump Sum of $155 when I got bills, kids and Xmas shopping and Thanksgiving feasting to pay for…its kind of a horrible time to do this but its Blizz…

Good point. Now let’s hear Blizzard’s reasoning.

Anything for Classic players?

Why you making the drake just for classic? The sub is for both games and they hate the in game shop so give it to restrain as well.

The very first recurring sub package they brought out years back you could use your bnet balance cause I did …then the next one they said no you can’t which upset me cause I had over 200 dollars on mine and I couldn’t use it …I use to pay monthly for my sub cause it was all I could afford back then due to my budget…

I have never understood why they are not allowing use to use BNet Balance or Tokens… They technically make MORE money off of tokens ($20 to buy one to sell for gold) than they do any other method…

I have to agree with others, that this makes me worried Dragon Flight is going to suck and you are trying to lock us in. Your track record hasn’t been exactly great lately Blizzard.

Well you do have a month and half to check out Dragon Flight before buying the 12 month sub package now…

Yeah, there it is… there is that thing that doesn’t make me buy dragonflight and want to resub. This company can go eat itself.

umm ok bye

Even though I will likely play for the entire expanse, I don’t like commuting to it. The mounts would only go towards helping me to the next collection achievement, I would never use them. If the Wrath stuff was also included in retail I could be tempted, but oh well.
