From a special mount to a regular one.
And they STILL didn't fix Taivan being unable to run up/down inclinations (he just always stays completely horizontal vs other mounts who actually tilt to run up/down)
why? He wasn't larger than some of the mammoths. His large size made him all the more epic. There are no good reasons for this and it just makes your players upset.
Such a disappointed. I have pretty much finished my progress on the meta, only leaving Artisan Consort rep, 1 photography WQ and 2 Tuskar nets and now you're telling me they did my boi dirty this way.
This unironically is a huge spit in the face to all those that worked hard on this achievement. Not only that, but to the character of Taivan himself as well.. like why would they do this? Shameful.
Bad change!
if wowhead did not make a post about it, 99% would not even notice
Whoever did this hates dogs.
Just why? We have mammoths that are big so that does not justify any "the dog was too big" arguments"...... WHY? I will still get him because am like 1 storm and 1 fishing hole away BUT WHY?
What is wrong with this company. Someone on Reddit made a very good post on all actual problems with the mount. And what does blizzard do? Make the mount smaller? The large size was something unanimously loved by the community. What a ridiculously odd decision by whoever handles community feedback and makes these decisions. Also the fated season mount being a shadowlands recolor (yes it’s still a recolor) is just bizarre. They couldn’t even bother to reskin a dragon mount? Then they double down by upgrading some textures. Who is handling community feedback and can I speak to them? It’s not hard to read Reddit and Wowhead comments to see what most people want.
I blame Nat Pagle.
Farming L's to end such a great expac on the expected note...
Wasn't gonna get this mount anyways, and this just strengthens that. I want the SL one, but also don't want to do SL stuff and I'm close to it at same time far.
CHANGE IT BACK BLIZZARDDDD
why? NOBODY asked for this nerf blizzard! CHANGE IT BACK TO ORIGINAL SIZE!
FINALLY finished my meta achievement this morning and eagerly mounted up only to find my toon on a now unremarkable dog that took weeks to earn. I'd be more angry if it wasn't so on-brand for Blizzard. Just...
Nooo. Why? Why bother with things like this, which was fun and awesome. But they STILL could not fix the black grotto netherwing scale reward. Why Blizz.. just why.
The grind was in large because he was so... large. Why would they change this?
