New Trading Post Mounts and Returning Promotional Items in Patch 12.0.5

Hateforge looka cool

Neat to see the red motorbike.

Why bother with promotions? So many free mounts and almost 0 from actual gameplay. Why not add a few like these to some worthwhile achievements?

The expansion has just about as many mounts from gameplay as previous expansions, if not more than older ones.

EDIT: As I wrote this, my guildie just got the mount from the Stormarion Assault event.

Kinda wish those Mountain Dew flavors from the promotion were regular, they were oddly good.

Funny that the only promotional item on that list I don't have is the sunny tabard. The nearest Kroger to me is several states away, since it apparently required a reciept from an actual Kroger. If they allowed one of their other brand stores, I had access to a Foods Co.

I got lucky and my local shop had a case of the citrus blackberry. Was pretty much slightly weaker Mountain Dew, but with a mild sour aftertaste. Good 'I'm going to have a sandwich for lunch' kind of flavor, just fits with anything. The citrus cherry surprised me. Normally I dislike artificial cherry flavors, but it was a such a specific cherry flavor. First thing that came to mind were the garbage slushies we used to get as kids at K-Mart after getting haircuts.

Oh well there goes my "unique" bike.

it def makes it less cool and unique when its not as exclusive

Got that Hateforged, along with the 2 pets and all the cosmetic appearances as a bundle off eBay for €20. Not complaining. Saves me 500 Tenders for something else.

$25 for a single mount? You got ripped off.

Sand Scarab was actually from the TCG originally.

It was also worthless lmao.

Doing donuts around the original mount owners?

Glad to see the yellow tabard is there.

Blizzard try not to clutter horse mounts with 20 different decorations challenge (nightmare difficulty)(impossible).

If you spent more than $7 on the bike you deserve it for paying scalpers.

Good. now instead of worrying that others get a chance to get something focus on the fact that you had it first. and while they are riding around on their *new* to them mount.. challenge yourself to go get the next new mount, and be first with it.

im glad i enjoy mounts because they look good to me, not because somebody might not have it yet. a cool mount is simply a cool mount, regardless of how many people have it.
