I'm completely torn on this.
I didn't play in Wrath.
I fought to have them put these back in the intended way to obtain them with the meta because it made no sense for their removal with the others being intact.
Why the hell should only people with gold-caps get this?
People are already transferring to lower-population realms to cap out Invincible, Mimiron's Head and Onyxia.
It's going to be a lot worse with this considering it's a removed mount - Hell. People who'd be able to afford it on their own realms have a good chance of missing out if somebody from another realm transfers before they see it.
My sub was already canceled prior because I needed to pay with time-cards but I'm fairly certain if this doesn't at least proc at a half-decent rate I might not add more time. Completely disgusting behavior on Blizzard's part.
Also this is very legit - Elvine posted this.
Very trusted gold-maker and live-streamer.
This isn't fake as much as I prayed it was.

At least the price is fairly low, but that's still dumb.

I mean, I understand putting rare mounts on BMAH, even discontinued ones like the old ZG ones because those are harder to place somewhere else. But that meta achieve would be EASY to put back in, and it's not like it would be any easier to get that than the Ulduar ones. Ugh.

I'd argue the ZA/ZG mounts could be placed in a Caverns of Time version of the instance.
Something I've been fighting for myself.
Makes a lot more sense than catering to a literal 1%.
(A group I've been heavily involved with - even if I'm not rich myself. Funny enough - They all quit due to the BMAH or PvP imbalance.)
If they wanted to keep these rare they could at least have the mounts drop off Kel'thuzad at 1% while requiring the Meta to see it if it does drop.

Re: Plauged-Protodrake on BMAH - Confirmed.
I always wanted the tiger mount from ZA(or was it ZG? I forget), but I was never able to actually get it before the removal of the instances and I was always very bitter about that. The raptor as well as it's the only raptor available for Alliance side. Yeah, they put them back in.. but they changed the models. A plain black panther was added in place of the tiger which really made me upset.

Re: Plauged-Protodrake on BMAH - Confirmed.
Yet I'm a mount collector and I don't think making discontinued mounts available to gold-capped people only is fair at all. Urg. I looked forward to seeing those mounts again too...

Re: Plauged-Protodrake on BMAH - Confirmed.
I believe a while ago it was mentioned by a blue poster that the Plagued and Black Proto-Drakes would make a reappearance.Gelannerai wrote:So essentially, Blizz has decided that credibility on this particular subject just isn't worth maintaining? So I guess the people that "earned" the mount in the first place don't get to have something unique after all. Cute, real cute. Just put the damn meta achievement back in ffs.
They never took any other achievement mounts out so I don't see why people who earned it back then should get special treatment to be honest.
I say they should just put the meta achievement back in the game or put them somewhere else, but not just the BMAH.

Re: Plauged-Protodrake on BMAH - Confirmed.
Actually, yeah, the more I think about it, the more annoying it is that it's not on the meta and yet they're letting people simply buy the damn thing.Meggers wrote:If they are going to put it back just add it to the meta ffs. -_-

Re: Plauged-Protodrake on BMAH - Confirmed.
I would freak out if that landed on our BMAH - although I would loose it, guaranteed, I'm not even close to gold cap... 1/4 of the way there. Guess I need to make sure I could dump gold cap on that one...
But yeah, torn again as well, agree with you Schwert, why should only the rich people be able to get that baby when it was originally given out to some seriously talented raiders back in the day. Oh, wish I was around during those days now

Re: Plauged-Protodrake on BMAH - Confirmed.
I have only picked up WoW during 4.2, so I only know those mounts from wowhead and the occasional sighting in SW... and how I'd love to have one.
If only I had 999,99,99, I'd put it on that bid without a 2nd thought. Or maybe not - that one might have go to Invictible for my DK. Even though it's still available, I bet that I'll be able to raise that 1m gold faster than get it to drop and win a roll on it. (currently at 10% - only 900k left )

Re: Plauged-Protodrake on BMAH - Confirmed.
Blizzard really can't justify removing mounts like that anymore. ZG i understand as the raid is actually gone and sure put those up in the AH but not achievement stuff.
