A new shop mount

Hello, i like to suggest a new shop mount that looks like the A.M.O.D. and maybe in the same colors?
Before you say that we have the G.M.O.D. mount and then we cant because they look the same.
Then i like to remind you, that we already have a shop mount that looks like one from ingame and thats the Mystic Runesaber and it looks like the Arcanist’s Manasaber.
I would Really like to buy a mount like this from the store with the a m o d colors (red/silver/brown). It looks so good and it would be so much fun to travel ingame with it.
Please Blizzard.
Thank you for reading and dont ruin this thread thanks.

I am allowed to post my suggestions on this forum with ANY character that i wish to use.
So no, i am not trolling and Blizzard can see this on my accounts with all the service things i have bought since 2005.
So go away.

As far as I’m aware, we’ve never had a mount start in-game and then appear in the shop. The Mystic Runesaber came before the Arcanist’s Manasaber.

That’s not to say it couldn’t happen, but the Manasaber doesn’t really set a precedent. Blizzard often reuse models; The WoD Pathfinder mount is a recoloured store mount IIRC.

Personally I’m not a fan of adding something like the A.M.O.D. to the store - One of the benefits of store mounts is that they don’t have to be connected to current content so can be pretty whacky. Also the A.M.O.D. is really ugly…

The concept of raid mounts is that when you get them, you’ve done something extra difficult, or you’ve been very lucky.

You see the jaina mount on somebody and you know, that guy’s killed mythic jaina. You see the mount you request and you know somebody’s been pretty lucky with BOD drops.

Giving shop accessible equivalents cheapens both the game and the raid. It’s like putting invincible in the shop for 30$ as a special offer. That’s the most garbage decision they can come up with.

On top of that, why ask for it to be a store mount of all things? Why not a profession mount? Why not a mount from an achievement? No, let’s ask for it to be put on the store. So many store mount requests these days, might aswell put the models in a shop so they can be bought to be used in a diffrent game/ in a mod for a diffrent game…

Not really, you can get that from LFR. Look on wowhead and we all know how “hard” a LFR run is. :smiley:

If it’s such an easy and accessible thing like you say it is, do LFR instead of wanting a shop mount for it.

Like i said, either it’s a difficult thing or a very rare thing. Which is why these type of mounts are special. You don’t cheapen something special with in game shops of the same quality.

store mounts are the equivalent of too lazy to grind anything and wanting things right now, in wow. Unfortunately that’s the case with wow nowadays, with how much boosting and gold selling and shop items and all we have. But fortunately, it’s still not on a level that makes the game hopeless.

Plus shop mounts are a bad idea for this game, but sometimes, some people just want them to have something that they can give as a gift to a friend or a loved one. For that small percentage, I kind of feel like it’s fine if it stays.

Did you Even read my post before posting?
Try read again and see why i wanted that mount and not the raid mount.

I disagree, they hurt the game, always have, always will. I bet the new dragon is going to be a faction related mount from the next expansion. Just like the faerie dragon & red bug from Draenor which ended up giving us 13 fricking boars. You want to gift someone a mount? Craft it in game, put time and soul into it if you so wish to. So many darn mounts that are directly tied to ingame content are put in the store, the bat you ride in the Voljins rebellion questline? Store mount, the dragon Green Jezus uses to slay deathwing? Store mount, the chimaera the Iron Horde uses? Store mount. A cool ship in an expansion with pirates? Store mount.

The bat, heart of aspects and the faction mounts from draenor really hurt the game badly, people had been asking for faction bat mounts for ages (Troll & undead flightmaster mount, for anyone unaware, since vanilla), Heart of Aspects should’ve been the DS meta achievement mount, instead of a recolored Life-Binders handmaiden and last but not least the draenor faction mounts which could’ve made WoD look a little less terrible (in addition to the chimaera).

I’d say mate, that if we see that mount in those colors, it’ll be related to the goblins. Since I’m pretty sure a version of those robots has been in the goblin resort for awhile now.

And you’re failing to see the point i’m making completely.

What you’re asking is a slight different model and a recolor of an already existing RAID MOUNT. You don’t add a shop mount that looks like a raid mount. That cheapens the game, the raid drops and the dignity of this game.

You can stick to spending your money on other unique shop mounts instead. Leave raid mounts alone and either do them to get them like everybody else, or don’t and have one less mount to show for.

We don’t disagree on that one. I’m just saying that since it’s 99% harmful and 1% good, I don’t mind if it stays in the game. If i could, i would remove the shop mounts completely. But i can’t. So i’m left with the option of either wanting it gone, or tolerating it. I choose tolerating it for the sake of that 1%.

Why would you ask for another store mount? Do you realize how much we’ve already had during BFA alone?

No store mounts and every collectible in the store should not exist in a game that require you a subscription fee

Ohhhh boy did you just open a can of worms. Here’s an umbrella - you’ll need it for all the /spit

What is this??? Heresy! You will be purget from this place at once!

You can share your ideas and you should
We however can judge the idea and we should

This is how any society or community decides what bad ideas are in the first generation (the rest will just assume some deity made it up)

It’s a good thing
This thread is a good thing

The thing that interests me when it comes to store mounts is that they are unique. I’m not sure I’d want an A.M.O.D. recolour for the price tag. I’d rather have something new and different. Like we currently keep having.

yeah its pretty Obvious. Nobody sane would pay for the base game , current expansion, subscription and then demand cheap cash grab store mounts wich would be just a slightly recolored raid mount
