Some people might like it, but that is a matter of opinion. And opinion is neither right nor wrong, so there's no point in telling people that they're wrong.
My opinion on rare spawns: As you said, where's the challenge?
It's not a challenge. It's a waiting game, and is RNG, neither of which I think belong in a good game. I'm more and more aware (based on some of these rare mount spawns they've added in this expansion) of how unhealthy, for lack of a better word, some of these pet & mount camps are. Add to that the competition of other hunters, and griefers... It's not a challenge. It's challenging to yourself to sit in one place, motionless, for hours, sure. But it's not a challenge like an epic quest chain would be, or a group fight. It's not healthy either--it's RNG and time-wastery and it drives people nuts.
Having someone then come in as you're finishing a tame on one of these, and just gank it... It's not part of the "fun" or "risk," it's just griefing, and it's not pleasant. I see no reason not to make the rarespawn tameables more like GC in this respect. I think it was a good idea, and I would like to see it continued with more of the rarespawn pets.
Exactly. Every word I agree with ^_^
