I’m really curious what u guys think about this. I’ve heard of people who have 400+ attemtps at invincible, that is, if u do icecrown in around 25 mins, a total of 166 hours, or 20 days of playing 8 hours nonstop, just to get that mount and I think that’s insane.
So, I wanted to ask, how would you feel about mounts being sellable? Or maybe a complete revamp of the mount collecting system?
I mean, people argue that if they become sellable they will lose their rarity, but do u really think that anyone would afford buying them all without consistent time spent in the game? I just feel like, if you could farm the gold, doing activities or grinds or whatever you could see your overall progress for a mount, or, you could farm others and sell them for the one you really want?
Or maybe that doesn’t have to be the case. Sometimes I like to waste my time on mobile games, especially the ones in which u have a team of monsters that u summon, etc, and I think it’s really frustrating that i can’t get natural high star monsters, but then I came across a game where , in order to get a, let’s say 5 star monster, you could farm levels for shards, that have a reasonably high dropchance and when u get a certain number of shards u could unlock that monster? Do you think that sort of system would work well in wow? Make invincible need, lets say 150 shards to get? ~mathematically speaking , with 1% dropchance, after 200 attempts u have 90% probability of already acquiring the drop at least one time~ then, you would eliminate both, the most unlucky and the very lucky ones, while, at the same time, you would still spend time farming the mount, but see tangible results for your hard work? I really liked that system in the game I’m playing and I really wonder why not more games do stuff like this? Maybe make the shards tradable through a new currency - like, let’s say you can “disenchant” the shards and buy other shards with that new currency, from the AH, and thus making mounts both tradable and without killing the gold market.
I’m really curious how you would feel about this, or if you think the mount system is alright or not, or maybe if you have other suggestions?
