I know, but it’s more for the newer folks who might be peeking in.

Blizzard didn’t even put heavenly onyx cloud serpent on the boss it was supposed to drop from at first, it took a few months for a hotfix to correct that.
yes and now people can just farm the mount from sha of fear whenever they want, no need to put it on a vendor for free.
Well not even 1k ap, they clearly can’t even be remotely considered a collector.
(They have 12 mounts)
Yeah, and I remember being extremely demoralized after that because I had been eyeing that mount and boss since the beta. Then I went into the farm feeling pretty certain I could get it eventually. That was probably one of two moments during MoP that I actually felt disappointed. I was disappointed all over again when I found out the actual drop rate some months later.
You can already buy it on bmah, there are people who bought it for 70k gold back in warlords (yes, really) that ship has well and truly sailed.
the BMAH is not the same as a vendor though
you still have to get the RNG of seeing it on the BMAH - completely different from being put on a static vendor that sells it 24/7.
the rng of seeing it on a vendor vs the randomness of blizzard deciding a mount should be on a vendor, seems entirely equal to me. Cope about it some more.

You forgot to mention that the BMAH IS a vendor npc. The level of semantics they are arguing is wild

I believe I did by explicitly referring to both of them as vendors.

there was no randomness in blizzard’s decision to put it on the vendor - it is for MoP Remix and it will be there for the entire event and it will return to that same vendor when blizzard does mop remix again.
basically if anyone wants any rare mounts in this game, all they have to do is cancel their subscription and then wait for the remix of that expansion to arrive, then sub for one month - buy mount from vendor - unsub again until next remix, repeat.
The randomness of blizzard deciding to do an expansion remix, the randomness of it being mop, the randomness of choosing to put old mounts on a vendor, the randomness of including world boss mounts in that list.
cope and seethe.
there is zero randomness of it in any way…
More random than some deterministic algorithm.
sorry there absolutely no random qualities in the mop remix whatsoever… everything is as deterministic as possible.
there are no random qualities in videogames, it’s all deterministic.
there’s no random qualities in life, it’s all deterministic
every time you act “random,” what you did was already predetermined by your environment and your genetic programming.
Seriously guy, cope and seethe. The mounts are going on the vendor and you won’t change it. Sorry your 4% mount becoming more common makes you feel less special but honestly 4% isn’t even that rare of an ownership rate.

exactly, i had said there is no randomness in MoP:Remix, you go to the vendor, click on the mount and you get it for free.
you kill the boss, you loot the body, and you get the mount for free.

That’s not how “free” works.

what??? people who collect mounts - do so to USE THEM IN GAME WHILE THEY PLAY.
what is even this take??? people will not just stop playing outside of remix, but rather will spend more time on other in game activities vs budgeting time to farm mounts.
and also… my guy. my dude. my man. just because something is easier NOW. does not mean it was always easy. AND it does not invalidate accomplishment of people who practiced something AND made and effort to gear to EVENTUALY MAKE it EASIER.
sigh…
P.S. there. is. no. skill. or, prestige. in. randomness. getting lucky with RNG is not a badge of honor.
