[Daedius]

What the heck is Brutus?

[Deleted]

omg how wierd it looks the Kul Tiran Druid Aquatic Form

[Dalheim]

Can't wait for that 350 Mount achiev! Hopefully the months dont switch places.. I should be fairly close to 350 mounts by now.

[Alopex]

The "Naga Sake" hurts me

[Kellorion]

Spectral Phoenix? I already have that, the dark one. Why not add some of the fey dragon mount tech and let it be a color shifting rainbow phoenix.....

[Ophenia]

The Waist of Time is probably some Chromie or Timewalking nonsense, too bad

[Deleted]

5 million gold for i Mount?!
That sucks!

[Dthamilaye]

5 million gold for i Mount?!
That sucks!

I recall when similar mount was ... I think 120k gold. The travelling merchant mount.
Been away from Wow since start of Pandaria and I have a feeling there seems to be some inflation going on?

[Shinrael]

Eh? Please tell me that Spectral Phoenix model is a placeholder. It looks exactly the same as the guild reward Dark Phoenix... The icon that was datamined in the previous build gives promise for such a cool looking mount... And I hope the Corrupted Jade Serpent looks a little bit more corrupted than just an ordinary jade serpent with a black metal mask on its face. What is it even corrupted from in the first place?

[Cheersz]

So many mounts!

[gamgee76]

Really ?! Ignore pain is back?!! JFC who on the BFA staff actually thought this was a good idea....smdh

[Aesahaettr]

5 million gold for i Mount?!
That sucks!

Sounds about right though. The Spider mount in Legion cost 2 million, so allowing for inflation that's not that surprising.

It'll be way out of my price range, but as I have two repair / vendor mounts already it's not really an essential item.

[Dastreus]

That Reins of the Spectral Phoenix is the exact model of the shadow phoenix????

[ls-]

I recall when similar mount was ... I think 120k gold. The travelling merchant mount.
Been away from Wow since start of Pandaria and I have a feeling there seems to be some inflation going on?

Correct. Right now 120k gold is nothing. That's a price of a craftable legendary for alts. You get ~3k gold per gold mission, there's normally 2-3 mission per char per day, even grey vendor trash sells for 50-100g/piece.

[Rayaleith]

Anyone noticed the belt in 3d model?

Anyone noticed the belt in 3d model?

https://beta.wowdb.com/items/162690-...e#model-viewer

Eh? What's new about belts being 3D models? It's been this way since forever.

[Deleted]

Boost my fire mage blizzard please

[Deleted]

400 mounts achievement. Something to look forward to. Only 12 to go

I wonder about 100 reputations: do reputations that are "best friend" count as exalted?

[Nozuka]

damn it. shouldn't have been so lazy with reputations
