So Horde gets 3 different mounts, Alliance gets 3 horses

[Yarathir]

Storm's wake could be some big seagull or something sea thematic.

Kraken would be cool. Or a giant crab.

Who plays ally in 2018 lol

Anyone who doesn't want to play evil faction, apparently. :^)

Lemme guess, you totally play both factions but just so happen to Raid/PvP/M+ on your Horde for no particular reason right

I mainly play Alliance but I do have a max level horde I log every now and then. I don't know what M+ and raids have to do wiith simply reaching Exalted on my Horde.

Your comparison is wrong.. This is not about which mount looks cooler, but that alliance got 3 of the same mount in 3 factions, while horde got 3 different mounts in 3 factions..

My implication wasn't that the Core Hound looks cooler either, it was that OP is picking mount rewards to make the Alliance look worse. I'll admit that 3 horses for 3 factions is boring, but they're hardly the only mounts you'll get through BfA. Not to mention that the current allied race rewards are faction rewards aswell, we've yet to see how we'll obtain the DI/Mag'har ones, though.

Look at it like this, a lot of raptors have been datamined and we just got 4 raptor mounts in Legion, Horde got 1 raptor in WoD, 4 neutrals in MoP, 1 neutral in Cataclysm and 2 Horde ones in LK, noone is gonna complain about that because they're not the only mount rewards, though. By noone, I obviously don't mean literally noone, you always have people who'll complain about anything. Still, my point is, you look at the bigger picture, you don't cherry pick. Cherry picking can make anything look worse than it actually is.

[quite an expert in wow]

Pretty much me, I don't have enough time to mess with both sides anymore.

expected that someone would pull the time card

if you don't have time you probably won't get the mounts anyways

Would just like to say that, for now, the Mag'har wolf mount is actually a unique model.
The horses are more of an overall horse model update that applies to all horse creatures (without armor) in the game, including the worgen rep mounts, with the BfA rep mounts being that model plus reused armor from the felsaber mount or Cata's storm drake mount.

This would be more like if the Mag'har wolf was instead a WoD wolf with the armor of the Vicious wolf.

Seeing these shitty horse recolors throws me back to WoD, although to be fair, during WoD Blizz at least fucked both factions over equally in terms of unique mounts.

I have 12 Alliance alts, that leaves little time for piddling with another faction.

Keep in mind I do have Horde alts, but all my gold and all of my friends are on the Alliance side. I may eventually use my free boost on a Horde character, but right now it's not a priority.

[Sastank]

Cherry picking and whining? Ye sounds like an Alliance player.

But really, rep grind for the gear. Not just for some silly mounts you clearly don't like or care about, right?

[Sorrior]

Humans use horses and trolls use dinosaurs. Not that many different kind of horses to choose from as there are dinosaurs. But it would’ve been hilarious if Kul’Tirans had a Fallabella as a rep mount.

Why not a wickerman horse for the Drustvar then?

They should just flatten the back out and slap a saddle on this and then make it a Drustvar rep mount.

That would be more equivalent to the blood tick from the Talanji's Expedition rep than another horse with reused armor.

The Stormsong rep could give a crab or an albatross mount (I think this actually exists but has no source yet) since they're a sea-themed faction.

Hmmm could use the legion pre order mount as a base or skeleton maybe

But yeah makes far more sense and a fairer mount distribution

It's just funny to me.

Not only do the Horde get more unique mounts, they also have all new armor.

While the Alliance gets only horses. All three of which have reused armor from older mounts.

another Horde fanservice expansion.

Yeah, another "H o R De r E E vi L" expansion. Thanks. Much fanservice.

[3DTyrant]

Wow, that Hyena Gimme!

I would easily slaughter two, maybe three Night Elf villages for it!



The French love to eat them.

Oh, I'd burn Tedra- oh... Oh right...

Wellll they kinda ARE playing the big bad again it seems

Yea so you do have time, you just choose not to spend it in a way to get the mounts. It's just an empty complaint, you can't get everything you want without spending a bit of time on it.

[Crillam]

Fits the lore.
Why would humans have any other mount than horses?

Why would troll factions have any other mount than raptor? You lack imagination. Trolls arent just about raptors and humans aren just about horses, especially when you have different tribes of humans/trolls.
