    oh look another mount, they add one a each 2 weeks or what now ? ;p

    Welp, that Iron Horde wolf finally becoming available = I shall play outside of raiding once more.
  1. wing5wong's Avatar
    any idea if these are 2 separate mounts, or change based on faction
  1. Alkizon's Avatar
    Well... at least Irontusk has decent hair art but perhaps this is true only for this particular species.
  1. kamuimac's Avatar
    nice - gonna buy them instantly due to so many tw badges saved up

    Looks like Grimrail is going to be in WoD Timewalking, good, as long Upper Blackrock Spire isn't.
  1. Xafire's Avatar
    Why Auchindoun, I hate that place with the pointless running around, could have been the Everbloom instead...

    yay Medallion of the Legion is going to drop in price
  1. Jasper Kazai's Avatar
    Ah, I just hit 5000 badges again with this last timewalking, and was going to buy the BC dragonhawk since I already have the Wrath and MoP timewalking mounts. But that wolf is way cooler, so I'll wait for that.

    UBRS is awesome though.

    I'd take that any day of the week over Bloodmaul Slag Mines.

    Also the 6 we are getting are Auchindoun, Iron Docks, Skyreach, Everbloom, Bloodmaul and Shadowmoon Burial Grounds.

    Grimrail will be a nightmare. Force people to use any kind of device in a dungeon and groups will disband in the blink of an eye.

    Oh look... ground mounts... it's official, they are mocking us at this point.

    Blue Post listed the dungeons we're getting just minutes ago, and apparently Everbloom was exchanged with Grimrail.

    WHY?!

    Swap Bloodmaul or Shadowmoon out. Those 2 suck.

    Although why they all aren't included is beyond me since there's only like 8 from that expansion. Would it really be too much effort to add UBRS and Everbloom?
  1. splatomat's Avatar
    I guess it's fitting that the expansion known for boring reskins would offer boring reskins as its timewalker mounts.

    More interesting mount options from Warlords: Kaliri, Firefly, Moth, Hydra, Crab, Stag. Spectral Anything. Something Iron Horde mechanical. Something draenei glowy would be cool as a reminder that there's an Alliance faction also. Something unique would be cool, though it might cut into all the things going to the shop.

    I've just grown fatigued at what seems like the least possible effort for virtually everything. These people are professional artists and developers but they seem to have no imagination. sigh. oh well.
