Hard way was just a euphimism for wasting hours and sub value in old redundant content when time could have been better spent elsewhere in current content, other games or life.
I am fully aware oneshotting an old boss takes no skill and is not hard. The time wasted gambling is the regretful part.
MoP is almost 12 years old for God’s sake, are you honestly going to hold up a complaint about “but it’ll be made easier” for current content in 12 years time ?
Remix appeases collectors, literally no one is going to be “wowed” by you getting such an old mount in Retail.
If it’s a self satisfaction thing there’s nothing stopping you from carrying on with farming them in retail, but as it stands WoW’s got an overwhelming amount of collectibles… this event is a nice reprieve to that so people can focus on other expansions.
I only killed it in passing. The pleasure for me was that my screen did not freeze so I actually got to hit it.
To be honest, anything rng is a rng. People can get lucky on the first kill others never drop. So when i say hard work, it is like chore which mean you need to work for it and pray it drops, cause you might have other mounts with 0.1% drops etc.
When remix released it kinda flipped the chore idea of doing your daily/weekly mount farm routine. If i had known this was the case in the future i wouldnt have wasted my time. Not that i have. XD I respect peoples time in the game, and it kinda shows 0.1% does not mean crap when these kinda events pop up, cause rarity aint rare no more, it is, but an echo of delusion.
Appearently our defenition of hard work is different, not everyone has the time to make multiple alts and invest time like other players can. So everyone differs in opinion when it comes down to how you do it. So if a guy has only 1 or 2 characters, but only farms with 1 character with limited time. It kinda says everything. Not everyone has massive time on their hands, so i respect everyones idea of goal.
And when it comes down to it i would say; “It does not really matter, cause we have no control of what is to come”
Not everyone wants to play Remix, so what’s the harm in them farming it in Retail. I already had all the world bosses mount drops after the Evoker snafoo and them giving us all a higher drop rate.
Exactly, it just feels like people are using the term as a mean to say they did something hard, because they sat there watching their screen afk on multiple chars daily…
Honestly, I hate the whole “Oh here is a 0.1% chance of this mount, and it spawns somewhere between X and Y minute good luck”…
It adds nothing to the game other than a down-time afk grind to do, and for some people to say “huehuehue I got my Sha of Anger mount after I killed it 3k times! I AM focus! I AM dedication!!!”
I would much rather have the world bosses, actually being world bosses and then maybe they scale them up to current expansion and “ramp up” the drop chance… This would mean, its actually going to require some skill to kill the boss, and it would bring back some sense of the “MMO” part of the game.
We have SO many mounts, and most of them are just re-colours… So instead of adding 12 world bosses that will be obsolete and one-shotted 2 expansions down the line, make 1-2 world bosses, that are fun, challenging and requires a group, that you scale with the expansion.
