Srsly Bliz, this is 20th anniversary, and you still don’t know that lot of players obsolutely don’t care for the golden muffin thing!
You release a questline to have a unique mount, without combat, without pvp, without boss, but with a pet fight.
And even more, with RARE pets.
The other option is to take a ticket to the USA and go buy Mountain Dew.
So, either you force players on a boring battle pets feature, or you set a partnership with a product that promotes obesity and heart conditions.
Good job, Blizz.
I know, but I won’t pay any game content promoting junk food… Partnerships like the Reven pack with CureDuchenne are nice, but with junk food that increases risks of heart disease, diabetes or stroke, just no.
whoah there , buddy
battle pets are less boring than arena 3v3 with dampening
i actually am a big fan of this feature
and if you want to defeat any team in game you need about 6 pets total xD
get yourself some anubisath idol, emperor crab, ikky, unborn valkyr, emerald proto whelp and mechanical pandaren dragonling
that should do most if not all fights
Just because I can (and I did), shouldn’t mean I must do pets battles.
Battle pets are merely the same as Rumble : a mini game involving useless pets. I love pokemon, but these battles pets are not even close to pokemon.
During the time it took me to get this Golden Muffin, I met a lot of people who didn’t like either this part and tried to group to pass it (spoiler, it doesn’t work). So not only do we have to collect 3 rare items, but we also have to struggle against a specific team.
Battle pets should remain optional, and not prevent from progressing in a series of quests that are already boring.
You can just throw the food in a garbage container. So just turn thinking. You buy the mount and get the food as a gift.
In a happy meal you buy the food and the toy is the gift. Thats the opposide. It doesnt mean if you buy something for a mount that you are forced to eat what you dont like. I mostly drink 1 calory drinks and if someone buys a drink with 23 gram sugar a glass i dont drink it. Its simple. I dont work myself out for nothing in the gym. And energy drinks have 56 gram sugar a can.
The felcycle is a meta achievement reward of kinds. It’s supposed to be for players who have played a considerable amount of the game’s content. Secret finder puzzles are not for players who only do M+ or PvP or who expect rewards just for logging on.
Having said that, three of the pets you need come from straight-forward content from DF, I had two from just playing the game and got the third in literally 5 minutes thanks to having an Evoker… and Evokers were a main feature of DF.
I do think there’s a justifiable complaint about the lack of new content in the 20th Anniversary Event, though. Apart from the detective work and this puzzle, neither of which I would count as mainstream WoW content, we have a low effort instanced event, a mount contest, tmog contest and story time and that’s pretty much it.
This whole felcycle thing is designed and made with the secret hunters in mind.
The reason you need 3 “rare” pets is because they were all secrets themselves.
This whole quest line is an homage to previous secrets and is not designed for the average wowplayer.
So if your not used to doing some real weird stuff you will get frustrated a lot.
It’s meant to be difficult. And while a little frustrating the pet battle wasn’t really the hard part. I had to collect two of them myself to get the right composition going. It didn’t take very long.
It really is t any harder then this.
You either knuckle down and work through it (using the guides mind you not even having to figure it out yourself)
Or you quit and understand this isn’t designed for you.
If you are in a party with someone who defeats him with 3 “Secret” pets you also get the quest
Group credit seems not to be working at the moment – you may want to solo it.
