Hallow’s End celebrates the break of the Forsaken from the Scourge. Fun and mischief reign as the Innkeepers of Azeroth dole out treats and tricks for those seeking to partake in the festivities.
Well… this is not that cool. ![]()
For the love of god stop this 1 try a day nonsense. Why only lucky people allowed have event mounts, while those that are willing to grind it are restricted?
So… like in Brewfest, one try daily for one account. Yeah, I’ll skip this one and all future events like this as well.
Since blizz hated when players run with alts with one day try faster get drop luck, huh?
You do realize that every day your chance is increased, right?
It’s almost a guarantee you’ll get it if you do it daily.
It’s a much better deal than a 1% chance on all characters. ![]()
And the mogs drop, guaranteed.
So not sure what the issue is here.
Yeah that almost guaranteed gave me 0/2 mounts so far this year… At this point i want my 1% grind back at least i can put some effort into it then instead of having to rely on my nonexistent luck. Horrible design imo, all day needed to do is just add bad luck protection without restrictions, instead they made it feel worse then ever.
Unlucky. I got 'm all.
I’m sorry you’ve been unlucky, but think of it this way:
- Unlucky with minimum effort: No mount, but not much time lost.
- Unlucky with lots of effort: No mount, but lots of time lost.
If i go in a 1% mount with 50 characters i would most likely have them instead im forced to rely on luck alone. And no there is no positive way for me to think about this garbage system.
It’s an illusion of increased chance.
Whether you try once or 50 times; the chance it drops will remain a tiny 1%
I would really rather have ever increasing chances as you try.
Also: 50 alts would require an immense amount of time. I got better things to do than chase after a mount that’s just going to be a +1, realistically speaking. ![]()
Ah well, each to their own. I hope the system stays as is.
Yes that’s why i said all they needed to do is add bad luck protection, instead they limited the already limited event even further and only helped ppl that are already lucky with these. I know the chance was not increasing but giving it houndreads of tries it will drop at some point. Instead with this crap i can wait god knows how many years…
It feels that way, but everyone has the same chance.
You can get lucky for the next 10 events in a row.
You just never know.
Tell that to the people who’ve been trying to get certain mounts for many, many years. ![]()
Honestly, maybe the best solution would be: Have a new drop every year. Put last year’s drop on a vendor.
Everyone always had the same chance… I could compensate my unluckiness with multiple characters before… I put more effort into it to achieve the samething lucky people did while barely trying. Instead now i got the middle finger and no mount for me.
Why should i tell myself what i already know? Removing the 1/day restriction is all they need to do, but its the rewards teamso there obviously won’t be a proper system in place.
“So how can we make Hallows End fun and engaging? For too long the players have said its not fun to farm for mounts”
long delay as brainstorming goes storming
“Howabout… No…”
“Ah… Nah…”
“We could try… Hmm no…”
“Aha!! Got it! One drop chance a day!”
“BRILLIANT!”
“AWESOME!”
“GIVE THAT MAN A RAISE!”
small voice in back “How about bad luck protection?”
Gunshot “Right if everyone’s done being silly…? OK lets make a grandiose blue post about it”
Players “OMG… Do they even play their own game anymore?”
Yeah, it’s so fun to fly in the skies with my Brewfest Almost-A-Guarantee. Everything essential has already been said while I was sleeping so I leave it at that.
Another event that just acts as a carrot on a stick instead of being, you know, fun
It’s not
And I’m the living proof of it. Never skipped a single day of either Brewfest or Love is in the Air earlier this year. Didn’t get either mount.
We shouldn’t be asking for complex solutions with more RNG involved. The best solution is to simply make everything both available as a drop AND on the vendors. And simultaneously, the cost of EVERYTHING (past expansions and new) should be so that a new player who starts today can get EVERYTHING on one character in just one year.

Yeah that sucks. And with luck there will always be people who are NOT lucky, unfortunately. But farming a mount with 50 alts doesn’t change that. There would still be people who didn’t get the mount, after trying many times every single day for years. The forums are full with old threads about that sort of thing.
That’s why I said:
Make Tricky Treat warbound not soulbound please.
Was just coming here to complain about it as well.
