I love this one but I can't see them making this recolour not a store mount when it's a unique model. I get that we can get green flightless fox mounts and the runesaber isnt that far from the archanist and nightborne mount but this is basically a recolour. I would be chuffed it was obtainable in game.
Sapphire is significantly better. The color scheme on the Fireplume one is a bit lackluster.
Honestly, I'm happy these mounts are the 6-month-sub mounts, cause I don't like them. I was mad for all the BfA 6-month-sub mounts (ship, mecha-dragon, Ardenweald-type dragon) since I never wanted to sub for 6 months, so I had to save up gold and buy them via token--blizz balance--every time, but these (just like the stupid flying cow), I don't mind at all.Nice touch for those who are loyal players and have an active 6-month-sub, while it would be a negligible loss for me if I were subscribed for 9.1--which I am not.But I'm really glad people like it ^^
still no 450 av mount, but atleast another mount for the shop! gg blizzard, gotta keep milking.
All store mounts are purchasable with gold. Why complain? Buy or don’t. I love the 6 month sub gifts because I’m always subbed and this is the most inexpensive option.
I'm tired of steel on feathers. steel on a bee, steel on birds, steel on foxes, steel on cats. Most cultures don't even use metal. It clashes and ruins and detracts. Wood would have been better for the bee's theme. Leather or cushion or leaves and cloth for some animal mounts would be better.
Oh, so now there is recolors even for the store mounts LULWBut i guess those who defend this practics deserve an appropriate treatment
Okay please don't tell me this is going to be another separate store mount. Reskins of skeletons are already sad enough but this is a literal recolor .-. Now, if the blue phoenix transforms into an orange one during winter... well I'm not sure I love that, but it would be better than a whole separate mount.
Prepair to see this mount next exp as a mob everywhere you go.
I love store mounts. I'm always subbed so I get them free regardless.
I'm guessing it's the same mount that changes color in summer/winter? Has Blizz ever added 2 models of a store mount in game before? Don't think they have.
I'm weirdly relieved that the Fireplume Phoenix didn't turn out to be a sort of HD upgrade from Ashes of Al'ar. Otherwise I'd really feel bad about not having it.That being said, I'm really tired of how over-monetized this paid subscription-based MMO has become. It's only going to get worse, eventually WoW will have a full-scale cash shop like it's a F2P game, only it'll never actually be F2P, because money.
