Now Available: Wandering Ancient Mount

Part of the cost-cutting.

For granting items to accounts on a large scale they’re now using Commodorer 64s.

Why is it that seasonal and anniversary gifts go out to every single player at the same time? Just how complicated is tagging all Shadowlands accounts with this item?

It’s so silly it makes me contemplate conspiracy theories like experimenting with the haves and have-nots psychology of players, and/or making players wait for things-- I mean we seem to be increasingly waiting longer for less of everything.

I mean if most players are jealously seeing others with the mount, knowing they have to wait some indeterminate time for theirs-- such things really are a good thing to observe from the cold business eye.

I think this theory is rather improbable, but not impossible. Still, it’s fun to consider.

Just got mine. It’s look alright tho not a fan of it’s running animations.

Although…if it changes colours depending upon the season, then…what happens when it goes to Quel’thalas, it’s eternal Spring there… rubs chin in thought

It’s not the damn flying book I wanted. >.> Why you guys gotta be boring and ask for a freaking tree.

“It’s being rolled out in batches but they’ve confirmed we will all receive it within the next few days.”
Sounds like the most spaghetti code i’ve heard.
Not fun seeing people riding around on it when you still haven’t gotten it.

Or Vol’dun… or Northrend
Not many seasons there
Or Outland? Outland don’t even have seasons… well whats remained of Draenor I guess could be in theory still orbiting their Sun :thinking:
And the Shadowlands…? I mean the place where souls from all over the multiverse arrives … have seasons? (okay its a miracle we have air in the realm of dead so the living could… live)
Revendreth will never experience the summer… the realm was created by Denathrious and I’m not sure he felt the need to add spring or anything to his realm of eternal night…
Ouchy… my head hurt, again tried to find logic… my mistake…

Looks like this is being rolled out to 6 month subbers first.

There are places where you can’t fly in this game so maybe he will use it there?

I have a 6 month recurring sub and I didn’t have it last night.

I got it last night around 22:00 ish, UK and I’m on the 6 month sub. This morning my other half has a ‘you have a new item in your collection’ message bubble but nothing is there. She isn’t on the 6 month sub. For me it seemed to appear as soon as I moved the char I was on at the time to Oribos. Maybe we’re meant to go to Oribos for it and I just didn’t read anything on that.

Even getting a free mount is timegated?

It’s still there for the ride though!

Yeah, i got that since last night.

Is this a flying mount…?

…This is a joke.

The requirement was owning Shadowlands not game time, in case there was any confusion. People without game time can still see their mount if they use a character below level 20 :wink:

However the mount is being rolled out over a few days. Your mount tab will light up when yours arrives and you should see a boxed gift at the top of your mounts tab then.

Everyone eligible will get theirs sooner or later :slight_smile:

I played wow since the beginning, before that wc3. I just saw the making-of video of the Wandering Ancient and been running through the world on this new mount the past day now. The love that was put into this mount shines through, so from the bottom of my little warcraft lovin heart, thank you so much!

The pop up forest effect is lovely as many players are riding around on their trees and congregate in areas.
