Yet another Invincible thread

Guess I value my time more than some then.

But still, as I said previously, I would have given up long before I got anywhere near 186 hours of my life!

Didn’t have to though. I guess I go riding around my on Invincible mount for a few minutes, before I throw up due to the awful modelling and pixelated textures.

But on a serious note, I have never understood peoples fascination with this mount. Why do people desire it so much?

I don’t know what kind of response I expected from someone clearly trolling.

I will continue my farm, enjoy the rest of your day!

Please see my question I added about the same time as you posted this response.

I am genuinely interested in why people are so drawn to this mount? What is it about it (beyond it being Arthus’ mount) is so appealing?

Also, got my calculator out. 186 hours is over 7.75 days. That is over 1 week of your life… gone!

Arthas, mainly. He’s my favourite Warcraft character and I want the horse.

The rarity is another, plus my own stubbornness. I just want to do it.

Now this I can completely relate to.

As I said previously, I personally would have given up long before 560. But then again, I sat in front of my computer for about 8 hours straight a few months ago, fishing up Strange Gloop, and that is only 1 small example of the level of autism this game brings out in me xD

But good luck with Invincible farming. Here’s to a GM reading this a feeling pity on you for your next run :slight_smile: HF

I spent about 900 casts of that bloody goop before I gave up and spent 70k on it. I can mindlessly do icecrown but the fishing bobber… annoys me.

God I wish. GMs please hear me

I spent 8 hours straight uptown 1300 casts. Went to sleep. 6th cast the next day it dropped.

tbh, I was very surprised at how cheap it was and is on AH. Something that rare should have been a lot more.

it actually exists in other games but blizzard doesn’t have this kind of tech yet you know a small indie company can’t afford that, it is called pseudo-random you start at true randomness and every time you don’t have success the chance goes up until you have success but it also works the other way around if you have to much success at something it also lowers your drop chance.

I suppose it’s a good way to get income for people that enjoy fishing.
I don’t mind fishing, but 0.07%
That’s just sadistic. And I’ve spent a week of my life on a horse.

A dead horse, none the less.

Ah yes, the two types of farmers.
Hold on, girl, and lots of luck :four_leaf_clover:

…then again, this is very much true. I got the Pureblood Firehawk on first try and never knew it existed before, but have the same luck with Arthas’ horse as OP.

That is gamblers fallacy with the assumption that a the odds have changed after a roll.

What i wrote isn’t gamblers fallacy but rather than odds over multiple runs.

At 1% chance to get invincible there is 99% chance to not get it. Thus 0.99^2 chance to not get it in two runs and 0.99^69=0.5 chance to not get it in a set of 69 runs.

Edit: Quick check with a dice roller. With 69 1-100 rolls after 20 rolls there were 10 that had one instance of 100 and 10 without any instance of 100 so 50% chance to roll a 1%.

Did 229 rolls with 1-100 dice 20 times counting 1,2,3,4,5 independently. Got 95%,90%,80%,85%,95% so 89% chance to roll a 1%

Dropped to me on the 34th attempt. In the meantime, I found Phial of Putrefaction on the 43rd attempt last season and 47th attempt this season. RNG is RNG man, live with it. :slight_smile:

I was doing Shadowmourne questline on my DK last year, it dropped on the 2nd or 3rd run on that char :face_in_clouds:

Got it on my second run. Great mount. Got mimirons head on my first run. I only use these 2 since forever.

Don’t make it an obsession mon, take everything in moderation, even WoW, if it drops, then it drops, if it does not drop, next time then. It is one of the most overrated mount in WoW. There are more beautiful mounts and interestingly many of them are not popular.

About 200 runs, I gave up somewhere in BFA and I got the mount in 9.0 when my friends helped me get Blood Infusion done so I could get Shadowmourne.

It dropped for me on my 7th kill.

Its not that ugly. In wotlk, it was one of the best looking mounts. It is the same situation like when someone replays their favorite game from 20 years ago, and to them that old game is still as beautiful as years ago. Besides, it has great lore and has nostalgic value to me.
