Coldlight Surfrunner and Island Expedition Loot Clarifications and Updates

Any new about Coldlight Surfrunner pet from Island Expeditions?is the last pet i miss and yet 0% of player base received it,also 2nd time murloc appear on Whispering Reef,feedback will be appreciated!!
There are different Murloc tribes in Azeroth, and so far, the kind of Murlocs that could drop Coldlight Surfrunner have not appeared on Island Expeditions. (WarcraftDevs)

After our earlier tweet, we are working on a hotfix so that the Coldlight Surfrunner can drop when ANY murloc type is present on an Island Expedition. Furthermore, we're simplifying this entire system in Tides of Vengeance. More details on that soon. (WarcraftDevs)

BfA PvP Season 1 Will Not End on December 11th

As we’re now three weeks from beginning the Tides of Vengeance content update, we wanted to make it known that the current PvP Season will not be ending at that time.

We expect to end the current season in January 2019, and we will provide an exact date for that in a few weeks.

would be nice for them to hurry up so we never ever have to run IE again.

random islands my behind.. its the same poop over and over.

[Soeroah]

I look forward to this simplification apparently coming in the patch only weeks away they haven't spoken at all about yet..

The thing that bothers me most is I was tweeting at devs the issues on Argus and with Invasions in regards to loot drops and expressing I hoped there wouldn't be similar in Legion, and then they doubled down on it. I know they saw those tweets, too, they even interacted with some.

[coprax]

So PVP Season not ending, does that mean the raid will not be open until january either?

I really hope not...

Blizzard has clarified that the fifth ring of Azerite Traits is available in January, when Season 2 begins. The Battle of Dazar'alor raid will open on the first day of Season 2.

Raid wont be out until january, because of holiday season. They said so at Blizzcon.

I like how they heard that people hated the loot system and wanted a vendor for dubloons, and they put the vendor in but didn't put any of the loot drops on it. LOL

That's a ridiculous reason to stagger the content yet again! They have released patches and even whole expansions in December before.

That makes it close to 5 months for uldir, I can't remember any longer raid-content drought after a first tier since cataclysm, but that had 3 raids.

this state show me what i mean about forums and ppl speaking bullshit.

Raid never release when patch come out they alwyas have some delay is call .5 patch. And also MoP Siege last for almost a year. sooo yeah bullshit over and over. from ppl that want to keep the trai hate going.

[Magnagarde]

They should make it so we can sail for a specifici sland after doing it for an X amount of time and getting a relevant achievement for it. No reason why sailors wouldn't find an island they sailed to for tens of times.

coprax specifically stated "I can't remember any longer raid-content drought after a first tier since cataclysm", probably meaning between the first and second tiers of an expansion.

That delay has NOT always been there, startet with WOD I think.

I specifically said First Tier Content, not end tier or anything else. Please learn to read and comprehend before arguing.

Everything is being delayed this expansion, 8.1 itself is over a month late. But people will come and say "have you cleared Mythic?" no, and no one cares, Mythic is not most peoples end game. Raid should have been out in dec, or at least another small one like in Legion.

Regarding the pet. Why can't they just admit they messed up again and it wasn't added. Same for some quests that are still missing. Incompetent liars. Anyone else get fed up with the "Coming Soon" threads all the time?
As for any gating on the content to drop. They need to think again. The community is sick and tired of gating. We want content now!!! Pacman had more open world than this.

[kaid]

I am not sure the island loot stuff needs to be simplified. It does however need to be explained. Also the way it appears to get loot basically forces people who want loot to play islands in a clearly different way than they seem built to encourage which is a really odd game design choice.

Actually in this case I don't think they are lying. The cold light murlocks are the deep sea angler fish looking ones. I don't recall coming across those at all yet but they are one of the enemy types in the possible mix. The problem is their RNG is such that its possible to simply not see one enemy type for a long time and then during that window having a very low chance of actually getting the drop needed.

Awesome ! 2 more months for people to faceroll free glad with stupid retarded op comps then.

Meh I guess it sucks for alot of people, but I dont mind it not coming out until over the holiday season.

ZG - Released 5 months after Vanilla launch
BT - Released 4 months after BC launch
Ulduar - Released 5 months after WotLK launch
Firelands - Released 6 months after Cata launch
ToT - Released 7 months after Panda launch
BRF - Released 3 months after WoD launch
ToV/Nighthold - Released 2 and 3 months after Legion launch

This is absolutely right in line with the timing since the game launched.
