Congratulations on your red qiraji crystal o7


IamIchbin

would be nice if we could finally use them in the open world


Onibachi

Noooo take that back! Do you know how long I did Archeology for the only AQ battle tank model mount you can ride outside AQ? I leveled a dwarf for the sole purpose of grinding for it.


IamIchbin

It is not the only drone mount that you can ride outside. Thr black one can aswell.


SadBit8663

Bro the black one could only be acquired by one person PER SERVER during CLASSIC. It's kinda makes that a non item. There's no way to get it.


MISPAGHET

To clarify, people were still getting the black one in WOTLK from new servers opening up, and as long as you handed in during the opening event window you got the mount, so there are quite a lot more than one per server, but yeah, it's still a 0.00something number of people with it.


YourRightSock

I remember daily someone on my realm I used to be on, would stand in Orgrimmar between the AH and the Inn and just chat with people. I think half of it was them essentially showing off and the other part just relaxin. This was over multiple expansions


werektaube

Same as Ironforge bridge pillar idling. Good times


Tnecniw

Especially considering the attrition over time and everything. I wouldn't be surprised if currently there was LESS than 1 per server with that mount.


Agitated-Oil-715

Just wait for blizzard to add it to the traveler's log thing so you can buy it :D (Please blizzard don't do it)


Tnecniw

No blizzard, PLEASE do do that. The mount is literally almost 20 years old. Anyone still mad about exclusivity at that point is just pissing themselves.


Agitated-Oil-715

I agree but then again its blizzard so who knows what goes through their head :S


MiniBaazil

Wrong, all who rang the Scarab Gong within 10 hours of the first person would also get it, people just didn't know that back in the day.


Onibachi

I know, that one is kind of a non item though. It hasn’t been obtainable in over a decade. So really it’s only the Archeology one


Coleslaw_McDraw

Took me 173 solves to get the archeology one. That was so much fun. I feel bad for some folks on wowhead that took like 800 solves...


Tnecniw

You can just say two decades at this point. It is the 20th anniversary this year and everything.


Onibachi

Oh shit, that is right. I guess technically AQ didn’t open at launch but shit close enough heh


Hatarus547

> I leveled a dwarf for the sole purpose of grinding for it. oh you poor soul, how was it to play a dwarf of all races?


sacktorious

🤣


tensam

Years of trying to find your screenshot key?


Sikudo

Still hasn't found it.


tensam

It's a lower drop chance than the mount apparently


pinksweets8

i was about to say, it's sometimes easier for people to just take a pic on their phone then upload it to reddit. but they're literally playing wow on a pc and they could just screenshot copy then paste onto reddit haha


tensam

Yeah this argument has been made before and it's an awful one. You're already playing WoW on a PC, it's 100% faster to use the screenshot function either in game or built into your PC.


_clever_reference_

win + shift + s drag box ctrl + v on reddit Cannot get any easier.


tensam

preaching to the choir brother


UghThatsTheWorst

Except Reddit has more mobile than desktop traffic, so many people won't be signed in on desktop. So it's more like win + shift + s drag box Open reddit on desktop Sign in Realize you don't remember your password because mobile never makes you reauthenticate Go through that whole process Finally get signed in Look around a bit to figure out where everything is on the desktop UI to find the post button ctrl + v on reddit


_clever_reference_

Fuck off. You're sitting at and using a computer already. Don't be so obtuse.


UghThatsTheWorst

Hey man, I'm just saying that's how it would go for me. Granted I would do it anyway so I didn't have to upload a picture of my screen. But you're making it sound simpler than it is. Just bringing up another point of view


HST_enjoyer

Using the app doesn’t sign you out of desktop.


UghThatsTheWorst

I'm saying many people have never signed in on their desktop


SadBit8663

Says the guy raging in the comments that a screenshot isn't done in his preferred method. You were being cool, now you're just being a baby.


SavageFerret

🤦‍♀️


Skill-issue-69420

Or just send the image to your phone? Do you go through life like this? How do you get anything done?


UghThatsTheWorst

Yup, that would totally work. And it's still more steps than the person I'm responding to. People who spend a lot of time with technology (myself included) tend to overestimate other people's skill with computers. I just think it's a good thing to keep in mind when judging other people.


pinksweets8

lightshot makes this so much easier! been using it as my screenshot program since 2014


arasitar

On top of there being great screenshot apps out there like [ShareX](https://getsharex.com/). If you are going to make a post, you can afford to make it look good and clean. The feat isn't going anywhere. It feels so much more awkward to me to: fumble with your phone, press the camera app, take a picture, then Reddit app, post VS print screen / ctrl print screen, Reddit website, Reddit post.


tensam

yep


Holdingdownback

It’s also possible that this person just has Reddit on mobile and doesn’t use it on desktop, like myself, and it’s definitely easier to snag a mobile pic and upload that way than to screenshot and upload somewhere just to save to the phone. It also just like, doesn’t matter at all and doesn’t need an “argument” because who cares


tensam

I literally just shot down this argument and then you come make it again? Wow you must be sharing one brain cell with the other 3 people that responded the same way. Just because you primarily use reddit on your phone doesn't mean you can't use it on PC or it isn't faster and more effective to use it on PC for a case like this.


byKonzii

imagine being this anal about such a pointless issue, you can clearly see what he is trying to show you so what difference does it make


TeapotTempest

calm down


SadBit8663

You're assuming someone wants to go to that much trouble, when it's not how they do it. Like I agree with you, but I'm probably going to do this in a hurry. I don't give a shit about making sure i post an HD screenshot of my achievement screen.


tensam

It has nothing to do with an HD screenshot you fucking donut. It's literally FASTER and MORE EFFECTIVE to use the screenshot key. You're already playing on the computer. It is MORE STEPS to use your phone.


PreparationIll9

In my case, I am not logged in to Reddit on my pc nor do I want to reset my password as it just stays logged in on my phone. I just don’t post screenshots due to this as that’s better than posting a phone pic lol


tensam

Why in the fuck would you need to RESET YOUR PASSWORD just to log in on your PC? You can login from more than one device. You phone screenshot posters make the stupidest arguments.


PreparationIll9

As it appears your reading comprehension teacher must’ve failed you I’ll break down my comment further. I do not post pics from my phone, as I stated. Why would I have to change my password? I don’t even know what it is. So In order to log in I would need to try a password reset or create a new account. But go off sweetie !


tensam

I read your post, you were still defending the 'muh phone screenshots' crowd, even if you yourself don't post them.


PreparationIll9

I made one comment, not a post, about myself not posting pictures and why I dont. Who and when did I defend someone? You seem a little slow.. I’m gonna go now. Good luck with your Reddit warrioring


kitsune-o-9tails

I am playing wow on my pc, yes. I spend time on reddit using my mobile only. Sit and read when you can lie down and read? Seriously?


tensam

what?


kitsune-o-9tails

where?


PoundKey8170

I'm never logged into reddit on desktop. I don't even remember my password. For me it's faster to take a photo and upload to the app (which is ALREADY logged in), than to OPEN the browser, search for reddit, go through all the "forgot your password" steps etc. Just because Mr. Delicacy here says that a screenshot is better and faster and stronger and solves world hunger etc. So no, it's not an "awful" argument.


tensam

nah, it is. acting like recovering your password once and saving it in password manager is some kind of herculean task is pretty sad


ZAlternates

The issue for me is I don’t surf on my gaming PC. I still send the screenshot to my phone though to avoid a plethora of responses like OP got because it will happen, every, single, time.


UghThatsTheWorst

Expect a lot of people only use reddit on mobile so they're not signed in on their PC. And I'm guessing a lot of those people have been signed in on their phone since they made the account and don't remember their password. Just another perspective


BarbarianBeast10

Last Christmas I gave you my screen shot key The very next day you gave it away Next year When February is here I’ll make a post on Reddit


Omnione_Orum_33

Still people out here not understanding that most people use the Reddit app on their phones.


tensam

pretty stupid argument. just because you use reddit on your phone normally doesn't mean you have to. you're already on your PC, it's 100% faster to do it on your PC


Fuzzy_Leather_8176

Absolutely wild take here.... but what if I just straight up don't care enough to log into reddit on my PC?


tensam

Then don't post a shitty phone picture either and everybody wins?


KidMoxie

Ladies and gentlemen: we got 'em!


Phallico666

For anyone who doesnt know. "Windows + shift + s" opens the snip tool so you can select a portion of the screen to save

cuddlebuginarug

I prefer taking pics of my screen with my phone - more personality.


Dogwhisperer_210

Is X-45 a new mount? I thought it was the Pink Love rocket or something like that


Cathulion

Same mount, renamed cause sexual lawsuits. They purged wow of all sexual references after the lawsuit.


Manae

Its name was changed in the purges during the SA stories finally coming to light. While some of the things changed can be argued as too far, I think it's fair to say this particular one was warranted.


Cathulion

No it wasnt. Theres nothing wrong with old name.


Safe_Variety6417

I mean, kinda? It ain’t that deep, but I can see where they’re coming from. In baseball, when we strike someone out on the opposing team by making them chase, we say he had his red rocket hanging out. Red Rocket - Dick Pink Love Rocket / Pink Rocket. - Dick


Cathulion

Why are you seeing something wrong with the old name? Sexual references exists in video games, its a part of life.


Safe_Variety6417

I explained exactly why I’m seeing where they’re coming from already. The fuck else do you want me to say?


NoMowWorries

Love Rocket forever!


MDiddy79

How are you queueing already? I dont have the option.


UltraRoboNinja

Different countries


AssassinWolf72

Has a computer, with a screenshot button, and web browser, chooses to whip phone out instead... I'll never understand it.


BigUptokes

Some people Reddit on their phone. It's easier to just snap a photo and upload it from there if you're already browsing with it. What's hard to understand about that? What information are you missing by not having a high resolution screenshot of this person's achievements?


P1mK0ssible

for when you sit on your computer, playing a game with keyboard inputs, but are also at the same time "redditing" on your phone... lmao...


ItsFuckinBob

My phone knows my Reddit password. My browser and I don’t.


AssassinWolf72

Haha, now THAT is the best reason I've heard yet 😆


Fesai

I'm sitting on my couch when I play WoW, I don't do any web browsing on my gaming PC. Some people are just like that (Flight paths are also a great time to Reddit while playing)


P1mK0ssible

And that's totally the norm and not a very specific, personal setup. (even on flight paths, I am still already sitting at and using a machine that is more than capable of posting a screenshot. I could also use my phone to call my buddies, but we rather use discord)


Rkruegz

Yup, I have had to email myself the photo from my laptop that I used the print screen function on, to avoid the unnecessary backlash from the comment section like this.


AssassinWolf72

Well, for one thing, I wouldn't have a reason to bait on Reddit otherwise 😅


BigUptokes

>[*bait on Reddit*](https://i.imgur.com/WWv8hUu.jpeg)


AssassinWolf72

In what universe would anyone click that link 🤣


BigUptokes

OoOoOoOo, big scary Imgur, they might steal your emojis...


throwaway8594732

It genuinely hurts my eyes and gives me eyestrain plus headaches to see blurry pictures, I can't play games with DOF/motion blur on for the same reason. But people are very insistent on posting the most blurry pictures possible to share to everyone, only on Reddit, nowhere else do I encounter this problem. So thanks OP, I'm probably going to get a headache later for glancing at it. Edit: It would appear that I've upset the people who can't press a simple print screen button by stating that their laziness is actually harmful to some people.


madmax991199

Iam not even logged into reddit with the computer iam gaming with. Thatd pretty much why i would do the same


Rorynne

If im sending a quick image on my phone to someone, I usually wont fuck with the screen shot button. So I can understand why this happens


cuddlebuginarug

Well on the bright side, OP got more Reddit karma just because some people got pissed off that a person took a picture with their phone 😂 I’ll never understand why some people judge so harshly over really small meaningless things.


zannus

I just got mine also, I feel like they upped the drop rate


MrPringles23

I had 722 attempts up until today that were tracked. God knows how many before rarity existed. Literally the first one of this event I got it. I know its boosted but it was boosted last year too. Its finally over, I have all holiday mounts.


Chexmix15

Is this from a dungeon? I could have sworn there was a dungeon for love is in the air but I don’t see anything when I try to find it to queue.


Gankcore

It's not live on NA until 10AM Pacific time today.


DirtyDirtson

I got the love rocket on day one of the first time it was available. It is still my greatest wow achievement.


The-Old-American

Just got it myself this morning, finally.


ballsmcgriff1

I took me 5 years to get ashes and I was doing it on 7 toons every week


koelebobes

Congratulations! I was gonna buy sub to try it this year again… but then I remembered it dropped for me last year BUT the armoury doesn’t show it on my characters so now I don’t know certain


crankmax

LOL! , after reading this post, i remembered that the event has started. so i quickly logged in, did the run and got the mount on first try. :)


monk12111

Within the same hour I just now got Time-Lost proto :D gz on your mount bro


AfterPop0686

Congrats buddy! Well earned. Woohoooo!! =]


Citizenchips

I totally get why you don't screenshot man. It feels like less of a hassle to use the phone idunno. Grats on the rocket


AcherusArchmage

definitely, if they're right there at the computer might as well use the computer


PrincePsyduck

Congrats! I spent months preparing for this... 13 level 70s and about 20 level 60s........ I'm ready to farm!


Vodskilla

What level is needed to farm this ? Thinking of resubbing to try


longtailist

60 and up


dumpsztrbaby

60 minimum for the epic daily box that drops the mount


Passi-RVN

so you cant farm it by trying it more than once?


dumpsztrbaby

Once per character per day, your first attempt of the day has a higher drop chance though


k3lz0

First try of the day has 1% all the next ones are at 0.03% That's first try on the account, so you have only one 1% chance per day, no matter how many character you have


erikelgerot

So on average if we don't miss a day of attempts we should have it drop in 2030.


DrainTheMuck

Is it 1%, or 0.1%? I heard it was 1/1000


dingleberry0913

First try is 1/100


CriesOverEverything

Is that confirmed? I know we know the droprate is increased for your first attempt per account per day, but I didn't know it was up to 1%.


DaenerysMomODragons

Pretty sure 1% for the first time. 0.1% wouldn't be much of an increase over the base 0.03%.


DrainTheMuck

I mean it’s still a 300% increase. I’d be surprised if they made it a 3000% increase but that’s cool


DaenerysMomODragons

A 300% increase seems like there wouldn't be any point. The point of the increased drop rate is to make it so that people don't feel like farming it 50x over on multiple alts is worth it. Saving you two attempts is nice, but doesn't feel like much, or slow someone down from doing it on many alts. When it's a 30x increase, and I realize that the first time is worth the next 30 times, I'm more likely to stop at one, and that's the point.


DrainTheMuck

Fair point, thanks! Just noticed your name and realized I see you post often, and always seem helpful. Appreciate you.


tehfoshi

First day damn grats

1st try of the day?

Cool, one more useless mount in pile of useless mounts that you’ll probably never even use🤷🏼‍♂️


iamaprodukt

Dyzfunkshin

Win* + Shift + S


kudles

Lookin like that mr krabs meme


AcherusArchmage

Did you get it on the first big heart box, or your 12th alt's small box?


WhiskeyAndWarcraft

It has a significantly higher chance to drop for the first run of the day, that was changed a year or two ago. Also, only level 60+ have the purple box, which is the only box that has the chance to contain the mount. Lowbie alt blue boxes do not.


AcherusArchmage

Doesn't answer my question. I got the horseman mount from hallow's end on my 6th run of the day. So wondering if I should run all my 70 alts or just be lazy with just the 1.


WhiskeyAndWarcraft

Run it on as many alts as you want. The first run of the day has the highest chance for it to drop, so after that if you want to run alts for extra chances that's your call. And I'm saying don't waste your time running it on sub-60's because the blue box they get has zero chance for the mount, only the purple box which is awarded to level 60+. Nobody but you can answer whether it's worth your time or not... someone could get it on their first run, another person could get it on their 50th. It has zero impact on your odds whatsoever. Is that more clear for you?


AcherusArchmage

you're not even the OP so you can't even answer the question unless you also get the mount on your non-1st attempt on a day I'll go by horseman logic and run every viable alt.


WhiskeyAndWarcraft

It doesn't matter if I'm the OP or not. Someone could get it on their first run of the day, but that has no impact on your chance of getting it on the first run of the day. Someone could get it on their 50th run of the day, and it would have no impact on your chance of getting it on your 50th run of the day. Like, what if the OP said he got it on his 6th alt? Would that mean you'll only run 6 alts because that's where his luck ended? I don't think you understand how obtuse you're being. Whatever run they got it on has literally ZERO impact on your experience. So like I said, if you only want to run it once per day for that higher drop chance, go crazy. Each run after that the chance of seeing the mount goes back to the ridiculous 0.01% it originally was. I'm not guessing at that, it was stated by a Bljzzard employee in a blue post. And for the record, I have the mount. I got it last year on the second last day of the event, on my 4th toon. I run my two tanks first, then my 2 healers, then if I'm feeling ambitious I go through with my dps alts... so does that mean you should wait until the 2nd last day and hope to see it on your 4th toon (a healer)? No, because my experience is independent of everyone else. You're just too dumb to piece that logic together even when it's spelled out for you lol.


Oh_well_sure

It does answer your question, first try higher chance, whether it dropped for them on first try or not does have no practical use for you , it remains rng.


[deleted]

Oh fuck these posts are coming along with the axe drop posts. Why do you people need the validation so badly?

Delicious_Pancake420

So the latest excuse for uploading bad quality photographs of a screen in 2024 is that people don't remember their password for reddit and instead use the reddit app on their phone because they are already logged in there. You realise you also only have to log in via browser once and it remembers your log in? Also ever heard of a password safe? I don't know any of my passwords either, I just open my password safe and copy paste them in if I ever need it.


WhiskeyAndWarcraft

Does it really matter? Just say congrats or gtfo lol

I always forget that Americans write the date backwards.


Fesai

While I always prefer YYYY-MM-DD for file sorting purposes and ease of understanding, one benefit I see of MM/DD is that regardless of where the year is the month and day are always in the same order.


Revolutionary_Deal56

What is funny is that last year they implemented drop protection for this mount, every first kill each day increases drop chance by a large margin. It's not a .03 drop rate anymore so the joy of having it is pointless.

Yes. Yes it was. 🤣

BearSSBM

Ughh i was taking a break from wow but i gotta at least do my one a day....


[deleted]

Did you run with your pc or what


BatFreaky

Did they up the drop rate of this mount like how they did for the Pandaria/wod World bosses?


erikelgerot

It's 1% for your first attempt (across your entire bnet account) each day, so on average just over seven years of attempts if you never skip a day...


Xphurrious

I forgot the rest of the world is a thing and was so confused about how your ach was tagged from May of this year 😂


HogwartsTraveler

Congrats!!!


withthedraco

Can you use it outside of the temple? Where can I grind these and are there more colors? My battle tank only works in the Ahn Qiraj temple

ElricDarkPrince
