Yes
I thought of the exact same solution a few weeks back, we're on the same wavelength crendor hell yeah
he is basically describing time walking dungeon events, and i think its more a less a good idea
I think what makes me the least interested in returning to wow is how all the nicer graphics gear and pets is pretty minimal. I mean the cat and foxes still have like 9 polygons and I'll be honest by the time I finish the westfall and dusk wood when I get to the jungle it's no longer fun. And all non dungeon gear up to legion look TERRIBLE. And I don't mean I want raid tier gear fancy; I mean I want to cosplay as a hobo or a mountain man or madman gnome but the gear for low-key transmog fun is still from vanilla or wrath . Like seriously try finding a normal wooden bow with more than 10 polygons
Yes, yes they are. Just give people a way to work towards it instead of having them wait a year between attempts.
The idea of a universal and account-wide holiday currency sounds pretty good, and then you just plop down a new vendor in the two main capital citiesor maybe just Valdrakken so that place still has some relevance come future expansions.
Alternatively, Ironforge and Thunder Bluff.
I got Arfus too. On the first run of the season !!
If it doesn't drop they get a temporary mount like the DMF but it only last 15 mins, lol.
A friend of mine have over 30 alts, he's been trying to get the Love Rocket for 13 years, and still don't have it.
The production quality is impressive.
Any rate less than 1%, especially on timed events, is BS IMO. Drop rates on raid/dungeon items should be raised on the current expansion when the next expansion drops.
Agree 100% on needing a way to purchase the drops.
I’d love if they just homogenised most currency’s so there is this functional overlap… so you don’t have to be pigeon holed into doing specific activities for specific rewards or gear… this would also fit into blizzards philosophy of ‘play how you want/what you want’…. Imagine doing dungeons all day and you decide to pivot into pvp and use the currency to buy some pvp gear or vice versa.
I have played casually for as long as you have Crendor and I have never collected all the Holiday content. I think thats far too long a time to have done this stuff year in and out to have never got everything.
Yes.
Yes. Every year there is event I fuck off and let it go away
Wtf, first time I see you rl, always figured you where very overweight due to your very distinct voice hahaha
Oh, I got the dragon manuscript not knowing it was rare, while being bummed about no love rocket drop
I would just want to add on Crendor's idea of a global currency for holidays is that lets say if by some miracle after u have already bought the love rocket it drops you can sell it to the vendor for maybe not the full price its worth but maybe a 70% or less idk what ever the exchange rate is of a vendor when u buy something and try to sell it back to him just so you dont feel so bad for spending the holiday currency and this would be for all the RNG drops from an event
Without bad luck protection yes, when it's that limited of an event and I have been trying for 11 years
i think this is a reasonable take but the problem for me is that if a rare and cool mount is owned by everyone then it ceases to be cool. look at the bronze drake for example. dope as hell, until everyone has it. however, you could easily solve this by having it just be pretty damn expensive. that way it's still an accomplishment to own it, and it's a tangible goal that you can slowly work towards.
If collecting is your gameplay, then yeah holiday rare drops are total BS. Blizz is the one that supports collection style gameplay so they're definitely encouraging some really crappy stuff there. Back when I used to play (quit in Legion) the only holiday drop I ever cared about was the Hallow's End broom. But that was only because its instant cast, and thats just fun man idk. Otherwise I'd only really ever care about raiding. But yeah, I feel you.
Yes
I genuinely love this idea. I barely play wow much anymore, but I ALWAYS logged in for Hollow’s End and Winter’s Veil. I always loved how much effort was put into those events and they fell so festive. I think your idea would be beneficial for all!
It shouldn't be possible to miss a drop more than a hundred times. Even at a mere five minutes per attempt, that's five hundred minutes. Over eight hours. A full work day. At the federal minimum wage in the U.S. that's over fifty dollars of time wasted trying to acquire a fake item in a video game that will one day be disabled and that cosmetic lost. Most states have a higher minimum than that so the number only goes up, and you can just look at wowhead to see the horror stories of people who've done hundreds, sometimes THOUSANDS of attempts trying to get a drop. And then idiots wonder why people would rather just spend twenty bucks to get that item instantly.
My idea is that once you get the related Holiday meta-achievement, you get a significantly increased drop chance
The SO and I both tried, on several toons, for ten years to get the Headless Horseman's mount. We left in BfA for several reasons, for GW2. And man, I do not miss endlessly farming the same fights until I'm disgusted, just trying to get a recolor of a mount. GW2 lets you dye your mounts any way you want. Random skins cost $5, and there's no sub fee, so I can get three new skins for the $15 I'd be paying Blizzard just for the right to play, and spend my game time doing what I want, instead of grinding dailies and raids like a job.
Well I haven't managed to get the Headless Horseman's fucking horse in two decades so yeah..
All FOMO is bad bring back Atiesh
Love collecting mounts for my mount collection that I never use.
A couple nights ago, I gave a Vial of the Sands to a complete stranger. I don't suck at Holliday Events, I suck MAGNIFICENTLY at them.
nice vid d00d
We need to get this video in front of the devs. This is a great idea for the holidays!
I like Crendor’s idea. 👍🙂
i am so thankful i quit wow.
I just wish that blizzard would fix the Pirate's Day Drake Armor, I bought it for 50k and was only able to have it equipped for like 2 days before it disappeared
I was trying to get the dragon manuscript for the love is in the air and managed to get the love rocket instead. Also for the Pandaland world boss mounts, I got the Colbalt Direhorn on my first kill.
WoW players can't bare the thought of not having their way with everything.
It's a fucking rare drop, you're not meant to have it, you're meant to see other people who were lucky enough to get it and look at it in awe. Everybody knows it's not a feat of strength having a rare drop, but it's something you don't have and you never could get, and that's why you want it.
I think calling it entitlement is a bit too far, but come one, just learn to not have everything you want. This isn't a job, you don't get paid in mounts, this is a fucking game.
I like your idea, but how about this modification: Create a holiday currency exchange wherein every holiday currency can be exchanged (during the holiday) for a "reserve currency" called something like "coins of celebration" or whatever which, in turn, can be traded for holiday goodies (any time) at a vendor placed near the existing trading posts.
This is very similar to how Blizz implemented the mount rewards in the Emerald Dream. You can farm the seeds for the mounts, or you can use a special token you get once a week to buy one of the mounts. I think holidays are a great way to expand on this. Great video, Crendor!
Tried for years across 30 characters for that damn heartbreaker mount, no luck.That's about 450 attempts throughout the duration of the holiday event. It's so aggravating
I hate holiday rates even more than normal ones. I hate Fomo and grinding snd it's the worst of both.
Blizzard needs to hire this man.
He has good ideas.
Many holiday events is what kept me playing wow in my final years and I haven't played in over 5 years now as drop rates for rare mounts and items was just so low I lost interest
Love tokens for love is in the air…
As a younger adult, i never got the chance to play during Winters Veil, so i was never able to get anything from it. Midsummer was always the one i got excited for cause i could do it all. So i like the currency that you can earn and spend on rewards without them being restricted to random chance. Especially since i was lucky enough to get Headless horseman reigns, on a parental account and didn't get to bring it with me. Never got it again.
