When you realize that if you do the Hivemind chain with your M+ group you can get an extra 30% movement speed while moving between packs 🙃OW and RBG also 🙃— Mr. FelHammer (@_kib0) December 17, 2018

For perspective, if it were freely usable by anyone, it’d become a mandatory-feeling power upgrade, and you’d see nothing but Hiveminds everywhere. Like this, it’s an awesome looking, prestigious mount, with just a tiny extra bonus.— ✨🐉 (@Celestalon) December 17, 2018

Limiting it’s effect to one group doesn’t stop it from being a mandatory upgrade to the people who actually view it as such because they are the ones with consistent groups! I’d personally hardly ever get its full (or even partial) use but it would have been fun on the occasions it came up.
They could have at least let people know that to begin with...
Good lord, everyone is so entitled. You got a mount for free from other people's hard work figuring this out. I'm glad it's not with anyone, because then the mount would be practically a MANDITORY upgrade. I'd be upset if the only mount people used in endgame was an ugly brain.
Would love to see the mount work as:

I'm glad it's not with anyone, because then the mount would be practically a MANDITORY upgrade. I'd be upset if the only mount people used in endgame was an ugly brain." I agree with this except for the bit about the mount being ugly. As always I am happy with a free mount, and as always there are those that fiond something to complain about which makes me wonder why they even bother playing the game when all they do is complain. Still I was disappointed with the group situation because I know of people who wont be part of groups because of disabilities and it saddens me they will miss out. Blizzard really needs to start considering that the whole of the warcraft community aren't raiding or mythic plus fanatics, some people can only do the solo content and others who dont mind doing some things in group arent always capable for varying reasons. It would just be nice for all types of players to be considered for a change. And whilst so many people say everything is dead easy, for some everything is not.
Mandatory upgrade? Everybody and their grandma already got this mount or will get it soon. Just another reason to not have fun with something...It only punishes players who completed puzzles with their friends from Secret discord / Guild or random ppl instead of their M+ or RBG team mates.It's an octopus that doesn't even have boost for swim speed. And again, nothing communicated in advance - just another disappointment after..."You wanted fun? - well we don't want you to have too much fun, so we put ridiculous limitations and locks for you not to have fun." Thank you Blizzard!
To be fair, I like the idea that if you and someone else has the hive mind then you can 'mount up' as this will make like a lot easier for alts etc and make people want to go out to get the mount. As for the speed bonus, remove it in BG's and in combat may be prudent.
ha! So a punishment system for using PuGs... great idea Bliz!

So, unless you have a steady M+ grp, existing of the 5 same people, this mount will just be another normal mount.I was so excited to know that this mount is a 5 person mount, which would be handy, not only, in M+ but also in bgs and raids, my excitement got now shattered because it's only a ulti person mount with those you have done the puzzles with. Many of us do not have a steady M+ group, I certainly do not have one because I play M+ with a lot of guildies.Why can't Blizzard for once look at the majority of they player base? Because high end gamers, who get sponsored, have steady groups going, they have a good use of this mount.But the majority, who do not have a steady grp, is just put aside again.Either, make the bonus for anyone, instead of linked to the "Hivemind" or take the bonus away and just make it a 5 person mount without bonus.Once again, something most people are disappointed in Blizzard.
Why not just let it carry 4 extra no matter, but not with the speed boost? Or make it 5% per person or something.
If they turn it off for alts, so only the character that earned it can use it, can alts then go back and earn it for themselves? Blizzard will see that this account has 46 characters on it, and these 14 have earned it, but the others can't use it? I guess that just adds another bit flag to each character, but still it seems a bit of extra work for their programmers compared with simply turning off the speed boost in instances.
Feel like it being linked to the group you got it with makes the entire thing pointless to acquire tbh.
I understand not wanting it for instance pvp or M+, but they got rid of all the fun that would have been had by this. Also this makes multiboxers way too powerful. Once again blizz does something stupid. They could have just restricted the increase mount speed in instances, but now, they had to go over the top and piss people off.
good idea? how can this be a good idea?, I thought (and probably all of us thought) you could make it a great mount with friend and going everywhere...such dissapointing and waste of time :(
