On topic. I don't really care if the top raiders who be angry over this I mean the other raid mounts are still here I know why they took those out but then they did not do the same with the new ones.
I believe if you can believe out of nothing an explosion (big bang) happened then how far fetched can god be?

the problem with these is that it only took one person to ruin it for the entire rest of the raid. would you consider yourself having "dragged your feet" if the only thing between you and one of these drakes was someone else's mistake on the last week they were available, and it had always been someone else's mistake every single week since the expansion came out? how would you feel then? the no death achievements were not something where you could say "damn, someone died. let's wipe and start over." if someone died, you were done for that entire lockout as far as your hopes for the achievement. it's something that blizzard realized was stupid, and so they changed the nature of no death achievements in ulduar.peanutbuttercup wrote:Sorry, I'm going to disagree. I never got either one (along with Amani bear, headless horseman, etc) and am fine with it even though I'm a huge mount collector. I also wouldn't complain if they removed the Ulduar and ICC achievement mounts even though I'm only 3 achievements away from getting one - but as I've dragged my feet I only have myself to blame if they decided to remove them. There's no reason for everything to be available forever nor to mock the people who did manage to get them... what's wrong with wanting to have something special?

So beautiful :3Spiritbinder wrote:cowmuflage wrote:Spiritbinder thats too purple for what that drake would look like!.... I always thought it was a violet/hot pink...
But yeah if it were a true chromatic the plates on its body would not be black as with the "what a long strange trip" violet proto, but that that beautiful teal/aqua color like the chromatic drakes...

I do like this idea and now that I think about it, it's entirely possible that this would be the solution Blizz would propose since they're already going that route for ZA and ZG. But it'll always be controversial because it's always either A) the original looks better to most people and therefore, the new recolor is insufficient (ie new ZG tiger versus old) or B) it's still not the original and therefore, isn't good enough.Comett wrote:I'd personally propose a happy medium... Make a slight change to the skin or something (such as mouth/eye glow colour, perhaps a brand or marking, or more drastically armour) and re-introduce them to the same level of raid content. A small change will keep the original ones unique and shiny, but give everyone else who adores the skin a chance to get one. Just an idea.
The difference between Hunter pets and mounts is, with very few exceptions (i.e. spirit hydra), having a rare pet doesn't exclude other hunters from having that same rare pet. When I see someone else in Orgrimmar with Skoll, Loque or Chronomaggus, for example, I usually /cheer them. They've obviously put the same amount of time and effort into getting their rare pets as I have (or have been really lucky), and I feel a kind of kinship with them for that. I would hope that they feel the same way, that their accomplishment was enhanched, not cheapened, by the fact that others can enjoy it as well. So why can't it be the same with rare mounts?peanutbuttercup wrote:Slightly off topic: I chose to play devil's advocate earlier because I question this mentality of "cry more special snowflakes" when let's face it, many players want their toons to be special in some way. So why is it a bad thing? In more hunter related terms, isn't that why some players chose pets with unique graphics? Because it's special?
