Sandstone Drake 2.0, here goes another special looking mount... just bring back black proto drake, zulian tiger and black qiraji battle tank, so the collector's (hoarders) can add it to their 800 mount achievement.
I am expecting this to be a full skin for the drake, unlocked if you have the lego staff and kill Timewalking RaggyThe same way you get xmog warglaives for killing TW Ilidian if you have them from BT.
The staff has zero cd when you equip it, people who have the staff are already using macros to shapeshift into your mount.If they make this a TW Ragnaros kill to get the mount in your collection - yay you can use it on your alts - but its only a convenience thing at best and probably not even worth the massive effort pugging that nightmare.
and people datamined a sleigh mount, i'll believe it when i see it
Imagine how much chaos this would inject into the community if you needed that specific legendary staff to unlock this as a secret mount. Then again, are there many mount collectors who only collect mounts though? Most i know do something else in the game besides just collect mounts - some do toys transmogs raids(cutting edge) etc.
I hope this will be combined with the Achievement you get if you unlock the Staff, so people that are/were willing to do the whole thing to get it can now use the "Mount" without equipping the Staff...Think there are to much things that lose Value if you done it in past or get it with much effort cause they are now free to get.Some things should have some Value for Veterans or people that put effort in it. And this I think is a good compromise, so people willing to to everything get it as "Mount" for their Account and can be the Mount even on Alts that can't handle a Staff and people not willing, don't get it... pretty easy ;)
"BuT WhAt AbOuT ThE PlAyErS WhO Do It BaCk ThEn..."It's silly the number of people who truly believe anyone cares about what mount/item they got and when. If you take the time to get it, back then or yesterday, I hope you get this as a mount/transformation option untied to the staff, for QoL reasons. "I did it back in Cata though, only the Cata-earned ones should get this!" people, it's only a flex in your mind, not to the majority of the playerbase.And no, TW FL isn't a "compromise". Get the staff in any fashion, get (hopefully) the mount.
OMG! I've been roleplaying as dragon eversince I started, and I have this staff on my mage main, and this is my "dragon form". It would be sooo cooooool if it got into as a real mount. Love this. Love this whole xpac so far!
YES PLEASE! As much as I love turning into a dragon this would be huge!Also... the Old Drake models are 100x better than than new drake models. Bring them back, I miss them!
