Honestly i gave up on mount farming,that is just a waste of time
i have ovee 1000 kills on Rustfeather
-Spamming events on 27 chars
-since the moment they anounced they increased drop rate on pandaria and drenor mounts ive been killing then daily
as someone who has over 2k tries on this mount i legit feel fooled by the announced “buff”
i anticipated this year i would do it once per day, eventually get it this year, but the event is now almost over and it didn’t drop for me or anyone else i know
i would have done my usual routine with 30 chars, if they just said nothing and probably would have had a higher chance of getting it
Ok : Last year run on 15 chars , droped in dung 3 times , this year run on 20 chars saw it drop once . So hope you guys were more lucky.
Blizz is not honest with their customers and I can imagine some smart manager will sell this month as major success ( look at numbers players love rocket farming + trading post ).
That’s it for this year, no drop. I am way over 1200 attempts since 2010, making me not want to sub for next years event if nothing is drastically changed.
There we go, event over. Did 60 characters per day, every single day, and did not see the mount drop for anyone in my groups, let alone myself.
What a joke of a “great increase”. It will take another decade before they add another 0.1% drop rate increase and call it “astronomically super giga improved”.
Here’s the thing, I finally got mine this year but i felt so burnt out by this farm honestly, although I’m relieved 13 years of suffering is now finally put to rest; I’m still annoyed by this approach and seeing a lot(and i mean A LOT) of people who dont want it or care about it, some of them dont even know there’s a mount, i’m not even joking… get it on their first box. All this while others have ran this since release day.
Funny part is mine wasn’t even from the first box… I’m happy its over but i cant deny this change just made it worse for those who farm it so religiously 30-70 times a day. You can can its wrong to play the game like this or “no one is forcing you” all you want, just know the only reason they even decided to attempts fix this event was due to those people. If the intent was to fix this issue then I classify this so-called “fix” as a flop.
This change only made it even worse than previous year.
They scammed you of the adrenaline rush of getting in the legit way
You will know it dropped not because of your efforts but because of the buff drop rate.
You will know that also a lot of other players will get it, and you will see it used everywhere in every city
All these combined, makes a fool out of your efforts for the last years.
by the end of this event i had 34 alts, some days i did 15 runs some days i did 25 and last day i did all of them. i have yet to login wow again and i am feeling burned out
i did not get mount but maybe next year (hope there wont be new expansion before next year april lol)
