Blizzard have not mentioned anything in the PTR about it and it kinda sucks. I dont have it and those who are against it are the ones that stalled AQ Gates opening for months, i think ppl that earned it before ulduar should have it reserved.

Doubt they will. It was mistake to do it originally, hence why they never removed a glory mount ever again.
Personally, I couldn’t care less as it doesn’t mean anything. If you want to show off, you ride Mimiron’s, Invicible and the current tier’s glory anyway.

Main problem with black and plagued protodrakes are that they are the only 310% speed mounts that are somewhat easy to get.
Atleast compared to the other 310 mounts which are gladiator ones or ashes of alar.
There’s also the Violet Protodrake, which takes a year to get.
Nah, if you got invincible or Mimiron is prob because you payed alot in a gdkp, you are either a GM/Officer or were lucky on a roll. Only thing prestigous is black, tlpd (time consuming) and gladiator mounts.
They removed black proto drake and plagued because naxx back then was already super pug friendly even before ulduar, it will be even worse and the mounts will become meme.
If they dont remove it I think its because blizz got plans to sync mount collections in classic to retail so that retail subs will tourist into classic to collect stuff.
Actully forgot about that one. But ye, that mount wont be available until ICC with the pace they release content.
You’re right, what am I thinking about, you totally can’t pay people to carry you to the Black/Plagued mounts achievements … oh wait.

Have you ever seen someone sell the immortal achievement? No. Its also a myth that it can be done in KT that you could sell spots for it in this client, last time a blue post confirmed it was in 2009.
Whatever helps you sleep at night.
Sounds completely possible, just like people sell gladiator with piloted accounts.
Don’t even need to pilot … there are only a couple of bosses where you can die by being afk, so full run Immortal carry is definitely possible (assuming joining at KT doesn’t work, which it does)
Don’t think they will do that, but they probably will allow moving to retail at some point, since Cata interest will probably be much lower than the other classics.
Actually, they did talk about it on a community council live chat yesterday.

Basically they said that they’ve been holding back talking about it because there was a design shift in original wow to let the ulduar/icc meta achievement mounts stick around. They weren’t sure if they should do it again. But they seem to think it would be a good idea to do a gear limit similar to Herald of the Titans on these achievements, so they are still obtainable but not super cakewalk.
I think it’s a reasonable compromise

Then it should be 280% speed if its obtained next patch. This collection philosophy is not really a core value in any MMO, or they could remove immortal/undying.
Yes, actually. You can have people join an immortal run on Kel’thuzad and get the achievement, seen it being sold for 35k on firemaw. It is confirmed working

Don’t remove it please thanks, i’m still waiting for someone stop dying in my raid.
Personaly i dont think they should do the same misstake as they did in vanilla wrath. Keep it. The ones that got it before ulduar can prove it with the date on their achivement.
Or make another color, black and plagued should be reserved for the ppl that got it before.
A lot of ppl sell immortal and undying. You only need to be present at the kill on KT to get it.
But why? You have the date on the achivement.
