I usually run 13 characters through everything to increase my chances a bitâŚbut some really do take forever

Like I said. It fuels compulsive, addictive behaviours.
What youâre doing is insanely time consuming and is not healthy for you.
Iâm not blaming you by the way. Blizzard know what theyâre doing, and I find it shameful.
How many pvp matches do you do a week to get your rating? and what other content do you do in an average week?

I usually play about an hour or two per day.
None. Once a character is max level, I only play arena.
Maybe two hours per month of other activities for Trading Post completion but thatâs about it.
Got the mount years ago. Still its the best holiday so I will farm everything I can.
So⌠You do two hours a day of arenas and think someone who does a couple of hours of 20 minute old raid runs is a more addicted and compulsive player than you?
It is no more addictive and compulsive than running multiple M+ or raids or arenas in a week.
13 characters in 10 minute content to kill one boss for a mount, mog or pet is not more unhealthy then you reaching for that rating to get some sweet looking gear in the next patch is it?? We can all spend our time as we choose pvpers, raiders, rpers, collectors alike

Donât spend that much time on it tbh, and I enjoy mount farming, so getting my moneys worth imo

Not all raids are that fast. Ulduar takes ages, same for ICC, Dragonâs Soul or SOO.
Please make a video of you farming all old raid mounts with one character.
Then multiply that duration by 13.
I disagree.
With PvP and M+, there is a 100% guarantee that you will earn your reward if youâre good enough.
If I can âbeat the gameâ, I will earn my KSM mount or my PvP title.
Itâs much less predatory in design.
You can just skip to last boss on this one, ICC doesnât take that long either imo, not done Ulduar for ages so canât comment on that.
Lets get back on topic on wishing everyone luck for the mount/skin/pet/keyring

I run ICC regularly on a few chars and it takes 20-25 mins max. It still doesnât change the fact that how I spend my time in game isnât more unhealthy than how you spend your time in game.
I got the ram from brewfest after less than 20 kills, the HH mount on my 37th kill, ashes of alar in less than 20, most of the dragons in less than 10/15. Only invincible is being difficult but I think itâs because another forumer cursed me and I havenât yet tried to lure it out of Arthasâ horse pocket with cake.

RNG is gambling.
Gambling is not healthy.
If a friend of yours wanted to build a house, Iâm pretty sure âyou should play the lottery!â wouldnât be your first suggestion.
Again, PvP, reputation grinds and M+ have a clear path with a reward guarantee at the end of the road.
RNG loot does not.

The difference is the raids have a weekly lockout, you can just keep spamming your PvP over and over, increasing your odds to get your reward faster

Which is why youâre doing it on 13 characters, bypassing the lockout.
No, got it a few years ago.
Had no intention of running it this year until:
OK, I guess I should run this them. Hope itâs not a 1% drop chance.

Meh, Iâve never used used one of these customisations on any of my dragons. Not something I care about.
When I do Dragonride, itâs on the first one we got in its pure uncustomised form.

And when you are trying to increase your rating you are at the mercy of the matchmaking and itâs RNG if you get a fair match or not. You will keep going at it until you succeed.
A mount farmer will just have a bunch of alts parked up outside an instance and whack through it efficiently.
I donât know why want to always point fingers at others about addiction and rubbish when youâre all just playing a computer game.

Not in solo shuffle, where you play 6 rounds.
All players play in all compositions at least once.
Itâs fair by design.
Still have to win, itâs still a grind, still have to get no leavers, to get to your magic number, itâs still the same addictive rubbish youâre spouting for others.
So out of order.
People play for fun, let people have fun without stupid labels.
