@matt Exactly. Get something incredibly rare, not only because it is hard to get, but also because even other people who COULD get it choose NOT to. Even if you have the gold, these amounts make you think about if its worth it.
You should do a video on "The History of Challenge modes and Mythic +" Where you go over the changes each iteration went through, or "Best Endgame Zones" where you go over which zones like the Timeless Isle you think are the best in a tier list or something, those are pretty popular these days. Finally, you could do a "Top 10 Artifact powers" where you go over the best artifact powers from every expansion that had them. Bonus: With WotLK launching soon you could go over the worst abilities in WotLK similar to the covenant abilities vid. You could also do "Best/Worst Legendary effects in WoW history"
I have a question about Beethoven from Dave and Devbot. What’s is class and spec? I would love to rp him. Also what head wear is he wearing? He has the timelord set but I can’t identify is hood. Thanks
Hey Hiru, i just wanted to say that i hope you doing ok. I know you struggled lately and there were some difficult times, but i just want you to know we think about you and believe in you. Hope you doing good! Stepa
Officially? No. Unofficially? Greed. They wanted people to drop the hundreds of dollars in WoW tokens to buy one before it got yoinked. FOMO is a powerful drug, and Blizzard uses it abusively on its addicts.
the swift spectral tiger has not been seen on any AH for years and years, and when it did, it was cap (pretty sure its been like 8 years). Measured in gold, the cost would prolly be in the neigborhood of 80-100 mil
the last time it was available on the AH (afaik) was beginning to mid WoD. And most of those mounts were dupes left over from the mass duping that happend during MoP. By the time the gold cap was increased to 10m in legion the mount was already worth much more than that, so it would never show up again. There are a few reputable sellers on ceirtain market discords selling the non epic version for 65-75m gold and the epic version for 100m+ today. This is equivalent to about 210 wow tokens or 4200 usd for the cheapest one (in EU wow-token prices). Based on those prices its cheaper to buy the specteral tiger card on ebay for both the rare and epic tigers for around 7000 usd.
I still never understood why they removed the mount like they did. If I had a bigger time frame given I wasn't able to dedicate all the time required to grind the gold in the short period of time it was available. I would of actually bought it and would of been able to buy it, yet they just FOMOed it for no reason and it still annoys me to this day that they put something like that in, which meant only a small fraction of the player base could obtain it. Then didn't implement it properly on the BMAH to where its only shown up a couple times, defeating the point of putting on there in the first place. Where as you can still obtain the alliance motorcycle and you can still buy the yak, which to me makes little to no sense in the grand scheme of things.
reminds me of how they removed the meta achievement mounts from the first raid tier of Wrath because they didn't want them to be easier to get in the future, only to not remove the ones from later tiers, but refused to add the first ones back in.
@@Gwarr25 I know someone who bought goldcap in wowtokens + a guild transfer (to move the gold) to snipe the sha of anger mount on some small server. People who buy chase-mounts with real money are weird to me.
I came back to the game late in BFA after playing none of it and I still managed to get the brutosaur after finding out it was gonna be gone. I totally agree that the way they did it was awful and sucks, but if I managed it once corruptions were a thing, then I think anyone could've got it had they not just given up
I don't think I got a single mount from BFA as I knew right away the cost of those mounts were 100% intentionally meant for players to dump their money into WoW tokens in order to have a chance at buying them, especially the AH mount as it was even put on a limited time event marketing ploy. So your average player felt the need to buy tokens and get the mount before it was too late. Nah, not playing into that crap.
I always watch your videos and really enjoy them. However, the swift spectral tiger seems really out of place in this list, since its sold by players and not NPCS, if you add that then you should add the other TCG mounts that also go for millions, like the wooly white rhino or the red rocket or even some profession mounts like the black panther which cost 80k minimum to make
@@hirumaredx yep definitely shouldn’t be on the list. Also, you said that when you redeem the code you receive the two mounts in your mail but it’s untrue. You receive them directly in your inventory. And if you also include all of that you can add the mounts from the BMAH, actually sold by an NPC, and can go in many cases for 10m.
The 512K with the Rustbolt Resistor is probably an homage to the Macintosh 512K (it updated the ram of the 128K to 512K which was huge back in the day) and I heard (though can't 100% confirm it) it was used to create Photoshop and used in old movies back in the 1980s which helped start the digital revolution of media compared to the old days of blocking film, cutting it and hoping that it works (which rarely did, we only remember the ones that worked REALLY well like Star Wars, but go to any old 80s film that didn't do amazing in the box office and you'll see why companies are not willing to put money towards doing that over again compared to how cheap and efficient CGI and VFX are today)
Got mine during Cataclysm as well. People used them to move large amounts of gold across servers. I remember buying 6 tigers and a bunch of TCG mounts for very very cheap!
Im still pissed at Blizz for removing the brutosaur I was collecting gold and was almost getting the 5 millions (4.2) when they removed it That and the fact that they nerfed the golds you get doing old content are the 2 things that infuriate me the most about blizz past actions in the game
This really sucks! That’s something I always hated in wow, the way they ALWAYS remove the cool stuff at the end of an expansion! That was something that got me trapped in the game for ages. I didn’t play battle for Azeroth, but when I heard the mount was being removed I felt pushed to log in and buy it - And that was the only and last time I logged in wow

3 other mounts you can add to this list are the trading card game mounts that are sometimes listed on the black market auction house and then sometimes re-sold by players on the regular AH usually for around 2 million. The Wooly White Rhino and the X-51 Nether-Rocket X-TREME. I got very lucky and got the Rhino for $420,000 and the Rocket for $763,000 on a pretty dead server from the BMAH on a Sunday night, I'm pretty sure on full servers they would never be available for that low. The 3rd mount is the Crimson Deathcharger which is one of the rewards for the ICC legendary quest chain and can be sold on the auction house. I've done that quest chain on at least 15 warriors between 4 servers for making gold and most of them sell for $395,000 regardless of the server population. So take this info for what it's worth, I'm sure that the prices vary a lot for certain servers, but just wanted to provide you with some (hopefully) useful info on these mount prices.
hey idea - top 10 hardest/easiest to Craft mounts/pets over different expansions. i am sure that back in WotLk the chopper from enginnering required some vendor camping, as you had to get 8 of pistons that only One NPC sells only once per a time of~idk once per day i guess i dont remember well. Such list would bevery interesting to see how it evolved over time, if Blizzzard made it easier or harder with next expansions.
I think it’s important to mention that the horde chopper isn’t available anymore due to some additional potentially still on going legal issues, leading to the bike in some way being IP of the show or some form of contractually disputed item. I read more on this a few years ago but have forgotten the exact reason. But in logic it doesn’t make sense for the alliance chopper to still be buyable, but the horde one not. Both look great. But it’s a shame the horde chopper is locked behind some internal or legal reason.
No it was an event, you had to be a horde player and LOGGED ON in a certain periood. I think it was from 30 august to something in september. Sooo we all missed our chances long time ago xD
WOO, I get too excited every time I see Hiru posted a new WoW video. I’ve been rewatching them all for over a year now😂thanks for hours of enjoyment Hiru💜
It's very wrong to put the Spectral Tiger in this video since it's not coming from a "vendor" and it's just the most expensive mount in the game baseline. If you want to include AH mounts in, there's plenty of other mounts that would make it into this video (notoriously the 2 obtainable via both AH and BMAH mounts Wooly White Rhino and X-51 Nether-Rocket X-TREME ) that always sell for at least 3M gold and up to 4.5/5M gold on AH or BMAH since you can find them on both. And also since gold cap was increased and it sold for gold cap before and technically not 999.999 gold but more for "whatever the max gold I can type in" you could assume that if one would be available on the AH it would obviously sell for gold cap again. And if you start including BMAH also who's technically a vendor then you can add Plagued Proto-Drake that sell for gold cap (although I've seen some going for around 7.5M was the cheapest one I saw), ZG Tiger, etc etc For information the current pricing of a Swift Spectral Tiger is between 110 and 130M gold, whereas the cost of the normal Spectral Tiger is on average 60M+ gold slightly higher price than the Feldrake roughly. Any TCG mount (unless it's the Rhino or Xtrem Rocket as they can still be obtained for couple of millions on the BMAH or AH) cost over gold cap. And for anyone wondering, YES those mounts do sell for these prices (often negotiated so can't tell an exact price but the listing is always in those bracket), most high end PvP boosters have 50M+ gold in bank (alt characters+guilds bank are used) for example.
i ran to kung lai summit as soon as you port into pandaria to go buy the yak first 15mins of the expac being out. never to this day regret buying it especially when they added the mog guy on it. i love my yakity yak! oh that and people talking crap to me for "wasting" gold on the ally chopper i diden't care much for the mount but seeing people go out of there way to talk shit to me just made it funny.
512 is a common thing in computing and data. I work in entertainment and the common data protocol we use has 512 channels per universe. It has to do with disk sectors and such as well has dealing with binary additive switches
Thanks Hiru! I have most of them bar the Swift Spectral Tiger, the Rustbolt Resistor and the Champions Tredblade of which I had no idea was even a purchasable mount. I'll go buy it at some time. Never had the luck to see the Spectral Tiger on the AH and for the Rustbolt one, I hate mechanical mounts that giggle around and decided that I wouldnt bother buying it. I did buy the Bloodfang widow and will never ever mount it, just that someone announced the vendor was up in Trade so I thought I'd get it as a filler mount for mount achieves.
Hiru, what about a large series about the history of all specs of WoW, covering things like their rotation, talents, cooldowns, BIS items, etc. If you agree, I would love to watch you starting with Priests :p
i remember getting the yak fr discount in wod. the discount in mist went away. i saved fr the price pre wod. wod prepatch came and i was off. contacted a gm and cant remember how but i got it fr the cheaper price in mist that was a result of i think a old guild perk frm mist
512K is just a reference to computer memory and nothing more. If there was a secret we would have found it. But the mount does allow you to fly around Mechagon Island without the flying thing targeting you so it's got that.
I hate being so poor. Took me halfway through BFA to save up enough gold to buy the Lightforged Warframe, and my main still hasn't made the money back. My ultimate WoW dream is to ride around on the Bloodfang Widow, but that could only be possible if an xpac brought crazy gold inflation AND made gold farming really easy to do without utilizing either the AH or "the big 3" (raiding, PVP, Mythic+).
The Spectral Tiger goes for gold cap, 10 million. the Swift Spectral Tiger is not on the auction house anymore as the highest I've seen it sell is for 20 million and the lowest being 18 million. it also costs anywhere between $500-$1000 but that's illegal
20million for swift is very low, its above 60 million and the normal is 20-30million atleast aswell.. A spectral tiger hasnt been seen on AH for years.
@@Existss thats not low, thats normal price. no ones gonna buy it for 60 mill cause its not worth that lmao. any time I saw one in legion or bfa it went for no more or no less
Searched for it for years! I even imported a few packs of TCG… but stopped when I noticed they were violated. Luckily I was able to buy them in Cataclysm. Got 6 of them for less than a million.
I had 5 million in bfa but noone told me the bmah starting price would be 5 million and i had already spent everything on wow tokens. Which i did because before that noone told me you could buy game time with blizzard balance, going over the 10 stored wow token per account cap. Didn't think it would ever go over 500k in bmah.
Because you DON'T have to buy that mount as the only way to obtain it and can just farm the NPC that drops it. These mounts on his video can only be obtained through gold purchase and no other way. He literally put that in his video's description.
You’ll be lucky to ever see the spectral tiger on the ah for gold cap, being an 8k mount, anyone who sells it on the ah is undercutting themselves majorly.
Is anyone surprised about the horde and alliance bike competition event?? Like many things in game, the horde won because they are simply better and yet the alliance still gets the better deal because blizz loves the alliance
And you're a prime example why the Horde community sucks. Also, imagine still wanting to roll Horde after having shit characters like Garrosh and Sylvanas as Warchiefs. I'm embarrassed for you.
My face when I never used my chopper during WoD because everyone that was actively playing at the time had one lol. I haven't touched live servers since BFA got shat out like a turd. But am having fun in a Wotlk private server. Here is hoping I can get the blue proto Drake one my first run like I did on live servers, still cherish the thing just because of how spoonfed that drop was.
12:30 I farmed that baby in four months doing wod and mop raids weekly on 7 characters and I got it in September. Plenty of time to farm before it went KEKW
I picked up Zul tiger in BMAH during BFA for 10 mil gold cap and Zul raptor for 3 mill along with Long boy 5 mill and the 1 mill for the 3 frog mounts BFA was a costly expac for me
Man they tried HARD In BFA to drain all that excess WoD Garrison gold out of the economy, and I guess ultimately realized it wasn't really possible so SL and so far DF in beta don't have like 20 crazy expensive mounts.
Why is the inflated of mount so much on WoW? It just a mount and it just for designs since none of them do anything special. I understand the repairs mount being expensive but not just regular mounts that can’t even fly at all
Not ashamed to admit, I bought Tokens to buy the Mighty Caravan Brutosaur. I farmed out 500k gold and said f that. Lol. This was in the final patch before it was removed. I made 2 more Battle net Blizzard accounts, and extra accounts within those accounts to split my buying of the WoW Token. The WoW token is capped at 25 per quarter. So i made the extra accounts to buy the tokens and send it all to my main. And as someone stated, the rep mounts costing 24k+ is ridiculous.
Ok so the spectral tiger or any TCG mount shouldn’t count because every TCG mount usually goes for gold cap and no one in their right mind would sell that mount on a gold auction house as you can get 7k-10k real world money for it on eBay. You cannot buy it with gold as you will never see it. And if anyone sees the swift spectral tiger even for gold cap buy it right away or tell me because that is a steal.
I think it’s stupid that they removed the long boy from the vendor especially when it has a utility that none other have. What is the purpose of that? Are players who didn’t play BFA unworthy of it or some shit? Very odd if you ask me.
Blizzard was a bunch of assholes for removing the Brutosaur. That and they also released shadowlands a few months earlier then originally announced, making it even more impossible to get them out.
I rem back in bfa I found a zulian tiger on a dead realm but was only able to get like 8 m over to that server alone and someone else outbid me stopped fucking with the bmah at that point 😂 was fun tho got some crazy mounts and mogs from it while I was doing it
I remember asmon reacting to a video of the most annoying mounts to farm and kept ADAMANTLY saying the Long Boi won't go for gold cap when shadowlands dropped. Bruh.
U can transfer a guild bank for gcap is how I got swift zulian. Also the swift spectral tiger 99% of the time is sold off ah because it's worth far more than gcap. 40mil range
I pulled the Spectral Tiger loot card on my 2nd pack. Since my wife let me have the ZG tiger mount b4 it was removed, i gave her the non-armored spectral mount. We rode through Azeroth as husband and wife on Spectral Tigers

To be fair, these aren't really rep mounts. The rep mounts from those factions are significantly cheaper, these are pure prestige mounts.
Everything should be free.

3 other mounts you can add to this list are the trading card game mounts that are sometimes listed on the black market auction house and then sometimes re-sold by players on the regular AH usually for around 2 million. The Wooly White Rhino and the X-51 Nether-Rocket X-TREME. I got very lucky and got the Rhino for $420,000 and the Rocket for $763,000 on a pretty dead server from the BMAH on a Sunday night, I'm pretty sure on full servers they would never be available for that low. The 3rd mount is the Crimson Deathcharger which is one of the rewards for the ICC legendary quest chain and can be sold on the auction house. I've done that quest chain on at least 15 warriors between 4 servers for making gold and most of them sell for $395,000 regardless of the server population. So take this info for what it's worth, I'm sure that the prices vary a lot for certain servers, but just wanted to provide you with some (hopefully) useful info on these mount prices.
hey idea - top 10 hardest/easiest to Craft mounts/pets over different expansions. i am sure that back in WotLk the chopper from enginnering required some vendor camping, as you had to get 8 of pistons that only One NPC sells only once per a time of~idk once per day i guess i dont remember well.
Such list would bevery interesting to see how it evolved over time, if Blizzzard made it easier or harder with next expansions.
Mounts like these always makes me happy that pick a human as my main😊
That is a reference to the amount of disk space on an old five and a quarter floppy disk
How does the gold's value change with each expansion?
I think it’s important to mention that the horde chopper isn’t available anymore due to some additional potentially still on going legal issues, leading to the bike in some way being IP of the show or some form of contractually disputed item.
I read more on this a few years ago but have forgotten the exact reason. But in logic it doesn’t make sense for the alliance chopper to still be buyable, but the horde one not.
Both look great. But it’s a shame the horde chopper is locked behind some internal or legal reason.
I would like to point out that I only bought the alliance version 2 years ago. Upon purchasing I received the horde version free. Enjoy.
@@jdblackwolf13 awesome Jody, sadly this isn’t happening for all though.
Very sporadic if it works or not.
Does anybody know if the faction change service would give the horde chopper mount?
No it was an event, you had to be a horde player and LOGGED ON in a certain periood. I think it was from 30 august to something in september. Sooo we all missed our chances long time ago xD
WOO, I get too excited every time I see Hiru posted a new WoW video. I’ve been rewatching them all for over a year now😂thanks for hours of enjoyment Hiru💜
Keep making these types of video
Shado pan tigers are my go to mounts in retail I love their look
You know you’ll have fun when the first costs 9k gold
90k*
It's very wrong to put the Spectral Tiger in this video since it's not coming from a "vendor" and it's just the most expensive mount in the game baseline. If you want to include AH mounts in, there's plenty of other mounts that would make it into this video (notoriously the 2 obtainable via both AH and BMAH mounts Wooly White Rhino and X-51 Nether-Rocket X-TREME ) that always sell for at least 3M gold and up to 4.5/5M gold on AH or BMAH since you can find them on both. And also since gold cap was increased and it sold for gold cap before and technically not 999.999 gold but more for "whatever the max gold I can type in" you could assume that if one would be available on the AH it would obviously sell for gold cap again.
And if you start including BMAH also who's technically a vendor then you can add Plagued Proto-Drake that sell for gold cap (although I've seen some going for around 7.5M was the cheapest one I saw), ZG Tiger, etc etc
For information the current pricing of a Swift Spectral Tiger is between 110 and 130M gold, whereas the cost of the normal Spectral Tiger is on average 60M+ gold slightly higher price than the Feldrake roughly. Any TCG mount (unless it's the Rhino or Xtrem Rocket as they can still be obtained for couple of millions on the BMAH or AH) cost over gold cap.
And for anyone wondering, YES those mounts do sell for these prices (often negotiated so can't tell an exact price but the listing is always in those bracket), most high end PvP boosters have 50M+ gold in bank (alt characters+guilds bank are used) for example.
I hate and refuse to buy these mounts, your reward for earning exalted is the privilege is spending wow tokens. Get stuffed.
I'm new to WoW and I just love watching your videos. It's interesting to get to know some stuff from the 'past' of the game. ♥
i ran to kung lai summit as soon as you port into pandaria to go buy the yak first 15mins of the expac being out. never to this day regret buying it especially when they added the mog guy on it. i love my yakity yak! oh that and people talking crap to me for "wasting" gold on the ally chopper i diden't care much for the mount but seeing people go out of there way to talk shit to me just made it funny.
Sha of anger mount also goes instantly to gold cap in BMAH
But the mainstream way is for it to drop so I wouldn't count it 🤷🏼♀️
Top 10 or 5 times the player character helped the enemy. Like when we freed guldan or gave the primus sigual to zovaal
512 is a common thing in computing and data. I work in entertainment and the common data protocol we use has 512 channels per universe. It has to do with disk sectors and such as well has dealing with binary additive switches
Thanks Hiru! I have most of them bar the Swift Spectral Tiger, the Rustbolt Resistor and the Champions Tredblade of which I had no idea was even a purchasable mount. I'll go buy it at some time. Never had the luck to see the Spectral Tiger on the AH and for the Rustbolt one, I hate mechanical mounts that giggle around and decided that I wouldnt bother buying it. I did buy the Bloodfang widow and will never ever mount it, just that someone announced the vendor was up in Trade so I thought I'd get it as a filler mount for mount achieves.
I don’t remember the BFA gryphons costing that much. I thought the price went down as your rep went up. I swear I got each of those for 15k.
Hiru, what about a large series about the history of all specs of WoW, covering things like their rotation, talents, cooldowns, BIS items, etc.
If you agree, I would love to watch you starting with Priests :p
Hiru, i love the random captions you ad in your videos lol oh no,letting the players vote on something lol
i remember getting the yak fr discount in wod. the discount in mist went away. i saved fr the price pre wod. wod prepatch came and i was off. contacted a gm and cant remember how but i got it fr the cheaper price in mist that was a result of i think a old guild perk frm mist
512K is just a reference to computer memory and nothing more. If there was a secret we would have found it. But the mount does allow you to fly around Mechagon Island without the flying thing targeting you so it's got that.
I hate being so poor. Took me halfway through BFA to save up enough gold to buy the Lightforged Warframe, and my main still hasn't made the money back. My ultimate WoW dream is to ride around on the Bloodfang Widow, but that could only be possible if an xpac brought crazy gold inflation AND made gold farming really easy to do without utilizing either the AH or "the big 3" (raiding, PVP, Mythic+).
The Spectral Tiger goes for gold cap, 10 million. the Swift Spectral Tiger is not on the auction house anymore as the highest I've seen it sell is for 20 million and the lowest being 18 million.
it also costs anywhere between $500-$1000 but that's illegal
20million for swift is very low, its above 60 million and the normal is 20-30million atleast aswell.. A spectral tiger hasnt been seen on AH for years.
@@Existss thats not low, thats normal price. no ones gonna buy it for 60 mill cause its not worth that lmao. any time I saw one in legion or bfa it went for no more or no less
@@zaeroalder6886 That isnt normal price, stop yourself.. Go check the market instead.
Thanks
Spectral Tiger is such a legendary piece of gaming history now. Especially for tcg dorks like me.
Searched for it for years! I even imported a few packs of TCG… but stopped when I noticed they were violated.
Luckily I was able to buy them in Cataclysm. Got 6 of them for less than a million.
I had 5 million in bfa but noone told me the bmah starting price would be 5 million and i had already spent everything on wow tokens. Which i did because before that noone told me you could buy game time with blizzard balance, going over the 10 stored wow token per account cap. Didn't think it would ever go over 500k in bmah.
Bold of you to assume the mount would only sell for 10% of the original price on the BMAH.
back in wod, i was able to buy the non-swifty spectral tiger for a mere 300k gold, buying it was one of my proudest moments in the game all-time.
Why isnt poseidons seahorse on here, that mount always went for 500-1m
Because you DON'T have to buy that mount as the only way to obtain it and can just farm the NPC that drops it. These mounts on his video can only be obtained through gold purchase and no other way. He literally put that in his video's description.
You’ll never find spectral tiger for 2 reasons, it’s finite and it’s worth more than gold cap, you can only buy it through trade now.
So happy i bought the brutosaur in bfa
🎉🎉
I've camped 3 server's BMAHs for the entirety of shadowlands, never seen a long boy up
With the wow token making up more of their revenue. Not hard to see why mounts are getting drastically more expensive
Traveler's Tundra Mammoth should been an honorable mention while not much now a day back in 2008 20,000g was a LOT
God I remember penny pinching and saving to get my expedition Yak. Taught me budgeting at like 17 fr fr.
You’ll be lucky to ever see the spectral tiger on the ah for gold cap, being an 8k mount, anyone who sells it on the ah is undercutting themselves majorly.
Is anyone surprised about the horde and alliance bike competition event?? Like many things in game, the horde won because they are simply better and yet the alliance still gets the better deal because blizz loves the alliance
And you're a prime example why the Horde community sucks.
Also, imagine still wanting to roll Horde after having shit characters like Garrosh and Sylvanas as Warchiefs. I'm embarrassed for you.
My face when I never used my chopper during WoD because everyone that was actively playing at the time had one lol.
I haven't touched live servers since BFA got shat out like a turd. But am having fun in a Wotlk private server. Here is hoping I can get the blue proto Drake one my first run like I did on live servers, still cherish the thing just because of how spoonfed that drop was.
Love your videos....!!Its time for Wrath content....
Spectral Tiger is definitely the most expensive mount since it costs $7k of real-world money to get an unscratched card.
0:00 holy shit mini Deathwing :O
12:30
I farmed that baby in four months doing wod and mop raids weekly on 7 characters and I got it in September. Plenty of time to farm before it went KEKW
I sold 5 mask runs and freehold power leveling. Was actually pretty quick. People were paying near 150k per 5 mask run lmao
He missed getting your level 40 mount in vanilla. Damn thing was pretty much over gold cap at the time you hit 40
Wooohooo another video!
Wasn't the tcg cards back when wizards of the coast owned them?!
My Chopper (#9) disappeared sadly. I can no longer find it.
Sure was a lot of alliteration in the script this time.
I picked up Zul tiger in BMAH during BFA for 10 mil gold cap and Zul raptor for 3 mill along with Long boy 5 mill and the 1 mill for the 3 frog mounts BFA was a costly expac for me
We'll probably get a new mount for 10mil that has a banker on it, in Dragonflight.
Man they tried HARD In BFA to drain all that excess WoD Garrison gold out of the economy, and I guess ultimately realized it wasn't really possible so SL and so far DF in beta don't have like 20 crazy expensive mounts.
Why is the inflated of mount so much on WoW? It just a mount and it just for designs since none of them do anything special. I understand the repairs mount being expensive but not just regular mounts that can’t even fly at all
Blizzard should just put the longboy with better animations on sale on the Blizz store.
Not ashamed to admit, I bought Tokens to buy the Mighty Caravan Brutosaur. I farmed out 500k gold and said f that. Lol. This was in the final patch before it was removed. I made 2 more Battle net Blizzard accounts, and extra accounts within those accounts to split my buying of the WoW Token. The WoW token is capped at 25 per quarter. So i made the extra accounts to buy the tokens and send it all to my main. And as someone stated, the rep mounts costing 24k+ is ridiculous.
How much did it cost altogether?
Machagon was such a crap zone that I stopped at Revered. I had 0 desire to suffer that zone any more.
Ok so the spectral tiger or any TCG mount shouldn’t count because every TCG mount usually goes for gold cap and no one in their right mind would sell that mount on a gold auction house as you can get 7k-10k real world money for it on eBay. You cannot buy it with gold as you will never see it. And if anyone sees the swift spectral tiger even for gold cap buy it right away or tell me because that is a steal.
I think it’s stupid that they removed the long boy from the vendor especially when it has a utility that none other have. What is the purpose of that? Are players who didn’t play BFA unworthy of it or some shit? Very odd if you ask me.
Still mad about the horde bike cause I missed out.
Blizzard was a bunch of assholes for removing the Brutosaur. That and they also released shadowlands a few months earlier then originally announced, making it even more impossible to get them out.
I wish they would add another brutosaur mount without any vendors cause it's so cute
I rem back in bfa I found a zulian tiger on a dead realm but was only able to get like 8 m over to that server alone and someone else outbid me stopped fucking with the bmah at that point 😂 was fun tho got some crazy mounts and mogs from it while I was doing it
Just buyed army of the light golem, its cool
I remember asmon reacting to a video of the most annoying mounts to farm and kept ADAMANTLY saying the Long Boi won't go for gold cap when shadowlands dropped. Bruh.
Swift Spectral Tiger now days go for around 100 million gold, so to have it under longboi was funny xD
I came back to wow at the end of bfa so I missed out on the long boi :/ I'm still super jelly to btw 🤠
Amazing videos 🥰
I love the frog mounts 😭
U can transfer a guild bank for gcap is how I got swift zulian. Also the swift spectral tiger 99% of the time is sold off ah because it's worth far more than gcap. 40mil range
Giggle to this day at Alliance paying 100k for a chopper when I got my Spike Trike for free.
Nice video thank you
Should be noted that the Warlord's Deathwheel can't be added back into the game due to a rights issue.
Damn I see why blizzard gave the alliance the Bee mount in BFA - cause they fucked over them with the griffons.
