OMG congratz on ur Seahorse!! ^^ Im currently camping Aeonaxx in the evenings nights!. I saw a Bloodseeker Last night. I like shoot myself out of the bed, hoping it was Aeonaxx Damn bat!

[Schwert]

Well - It appears there's a chance for me to get my Firehawk!
As most people know that mount is my grail. I love phoenixes and the fact that it's pretty much Invincible 2.0 put me on a nasty timer to get it.
Our server still doesn't have a Heroic Ragnaros kill.

Apparently I can hire a guild for a certain ((extremely high)) amount of gold to carry me and give me the bird after a server transfer.

Some people will see this as not putting effort towards it but not only do I get the mount it's a learning experience. I get to see how a hardcore raiding guild works and how the people interact - I can watch the other people of my class and ask them questions.
It's like a two in one deal to me.

Taking a break from hardcore farming as I turn to hardcore gold grind. xD
ULDUM. Have my mining pick!

[Schwert]

This grind has been headache inducing but it's going good so far.
4.3 is around the corner today and well - I'm bored.

Here's a couple of screenshots to tide over said boredom.





Suggestions on a couple more mounts to throw the camera at?

[Snowbird]

OMG! i totally love the first picture!! it looks like ur drake are looking down on the camera!!.. I am trying to get that Twilight drake!. But its hard! I totally love the colour of that mount!

[Schwert]

Thank you so much! I love taking screenshots. So much fun.

I'll be having a photoshoot with Tyrael's Charger in the next bit since he's my new main small flyer and he's beautiful to me~ [[Sorry Al'ar.]]

Also - Heroic Rag got nerfed. I might be able to convince my Guild Leader to let me hop in on a kill without having to pay another guild to "carry". Being able to earn it myself will feel /amazing/.

[Schwert]

My graphics were cranked pretty low on this one. I'll take another of the Angel Donkey later.

[Snowbird]

i think its pretty! but blizz could have made it loads better imo!!

[Schwert]

I honestly see nothing wrong with it.
Tyrael's wings don't "flap" they just...suspsend.

[Snowy]

The wings aren't meant to be wings, but they look far too stiff for something that's meant to be flowy. But it's the same problem I had with the firehawk mounts, I still don't like them, but everyone thinks they're cool so meh, Blizzard ain't going to listen to the people who prefer some real anatomy structure over people who think it's 'cool'. :/

[Schwert]

-cough-

[Snowy]

How the hell do people afford this mount? D: ... And if people win it from the TCG, why don't they ever sell it?! xD

[Lupis]

Wow, nice. o.o How much was it?

[Talaridan]

Shiny kitty! Congrats!

[Atalanta]

Lucky sod you.

Congrats! <3

[Schwert]

Wow, nice. o.o How much was it?

Quite a few members of my family put a small amount down towards it.
So for me personally it didn't cost much more than any other TCG mount.

[meepitco]

My first reaction was: O3O. Gratz hun~
But I'm majorly jelly

[Schwert]

You guys have no idea how squishy I feel to own it~

The rare version is up for sale on my server for 300k to Petopia members.

[zedxrgal]

Grats. The spectral tigers are going for $500.00 US dollars bare minimum eBay! I would have sold it. But yeah huge grats.

[SpiritBinder]

I find it funny how when people see someone with one of these, you get the
"OMG I would have sold it!!! They are worth $XXX amount for RL cash!" quite frequently

Yet everyone has/had a hobby, interest, desire for something that others find not so.

"OMG you brought a $7000 motor cross bike!!! They are so noisy compared to my scooter"
"OMG you paid $450 on a ball gown! I would have just brought something similar from and 2nd hand store for $4.50, what a waste"
etc...

I can understand where people come from due to personal preferences of what is worth what, but Kraai clearly wanted this mount, and it was worth what she paid for it or she would not have got it in the 1st place. I know that I can spend up to $150+ on a big weekend and have nothing to show for it but a hanger over and a few fun, blurry memories....
Do that a few times and BAM! you could have had a spectral tiger that you will always get to use and keep.

It's all about perspective

Oh and GRATZ KRAAI !!!!

[Wain]

I know that I can spend up to $150+ on a big weekend and have nothing to show for it but a hanger over and a few fun, blurry memories....

I can spend $0 on a late night on WoW and have both those things Well not so sure about the "fun" but at least the blurry part.

And grats Kraai!
