    For like 5 seconds after spawn they receive 99% reduced damage, so can't be oneshot like they were previously.

    To be frank it's quite possible.

    For the average MMOC IQ that is the only logical answer they accept while donning their tinfoil pajamas.

    We need to quick ask CDPR to come grant us the mounts, they can definitely do it!

    Sure it was just an issue... more like making the mount deliberately not drop to fuck with people.

    Despicable company.

    The number of people in this thread who seem to understand ~exactly~ how drop rates work internally is suspiciously high. I guess all those people Blizzard fired last year now post professionally on MMO-C!

    Sometimes I feel that Blizz is holding with some good changes only to use this card to neutralize random fuck ups.

    Not only was it possible to just not ever drop a mount, but sometimes it would drop one but since it's one of those fights that hard swaps to a new phase/zone once you win (aka like N'zoth) people can crash/bug and not get ported to that new zone thus bugging their chest and punting all the loot in their chest into their mailbox. This means if you got the mount it was soulbound and not tradable at that point.

    They said they would look into it with the highest priority.
    Since I was able to pin point a suspect "Bobby Kotick", they'll be able to send him an arrest warrant personally.
    You did god's work.
    They always told me I would miss my family... but I never miss from close range.

    They should put that spawn protection on all of them, lasting a minute, tbh.

    Better yet, give all "Rares" a short respawn timer... they already got their daily/weekly lock out... no need to add waiting for them to spawn on top of that.

    They should make spawn protection standard on every mob that drops collectibles.

    Screw their lazy ass customer service

    Do you have any other explanation why would it be such huge problem to award mounts to some people?
    Of course people were fired, but it doesn’t mean they’re down to like 5 people running customer service. They’re not going to randomly hand out a mount for every single time that boss is defeated - that’s just wasting resources unnecessarily, despite what numbers of people they have employed.

    It's actually not that simple, the number is also bound to the number of people in the group. In groups less than 20 you actually have a chance for no mount to drop.

    According to you the thing not working properly that was annouced in BLUE POST is 'waste of resources'? Are you kidding right now?
    They did not test this probably even single time.
    Why are they here then if not for helping players?

    It's stupid, but this is why it's 100% needed to get rustfeather mount this expansion because it'll be the same as houlon if you don't.

    Seeing as you were making out like they basically had no staff left. But yes, it would be a waste of resources. Having a ticket raised every single time just because it won’t drop an extra mount? Girl bye.
