This one is a bit much if you ask me. Even with the new expansion release, I doubt that there would be people with that much money.

I could buy one *now* and I personally know of three other people who could as well. Gold isn't really hard to come by these days.

at least this one has a use, compared to a 2mil spider :D

I am still pissed off about the spider. Nice mount, waaaay too overcosted.

And honestly. I think this one is too. 5 mil, just for an auctioneer addition? So not worth it.

Same as the original tundra mammoth in Wrath that started the "luxury mount" idea for Blizzard. It's a mount for the .001% of gold earners (in that expansion). 5 million is still just a terrifying amount of gold, even when you consider expansion inflation. I know people play the game within the game of gold earning, but damn.

Honestly, i had that exact thought about EACH of those Mounts. I am someone who plays solely for myself, and for my guild consisting of family and friends. So everything earned with materials and gold turns into consumable and other stuff just for us, so i never bothered about trading and/or earning gold. And those mounts were always "way to expensive" for me.

I bought the travelers mount just when i was in pandaria. I bought the yak just right this week (and the 125k got a hefty chunk out of my gold xD). And i guess i will buy this auctioneer mount just in the middle of the second-next addon. so everything like it always was.

The time necessary to dig up 5M gold is far, far more time than the time I'll burn by just mailing my auction crap to the stray toon I have parked at the AH already and having him sell everything.

Looks really cool though.  However, much like the Reins of the Thundering Onyx Cloud SerpentReins of the Thundering Onyx Cloud Serpent that I was really jazzed to get, the cumbersome size of the mount got in the way and I went back to the smallest mount available.  Most of the larger/cooler ground mounts end up this way for me too.

Look on the bright side; Blizzard will run out of functionally unique NPC's eventually! (in before 20 mounts that all have a barber, barber can only apply the color to your hair corresponding to the mount's color)

Barber... stable master (battle pets and hunters rejoice)... mail box... crafting stations... bankers... follower missions HQ...

At some point we'll have our own Vindicar that follows us around, for the low price of 100 billion gold. (or X amount of platinum if they finally do a currency squish)

Honestly I don't use the AH that that much, but it's still fucking depressing that they release a mount with such utility that I know I'll never get because Blizzard feels the need to punish me further for giving free carries to random people rather than farming gold.

 

I pay blizz for the expansion and every month, isn't that enough? :(

Yeah, i feel you. I would like to use passenger Mounts, where others hop on, more often.  Sometimes i am imagining "why not both?"

The next mount might be utility in form of a repair-trader AND 4 passenger seats. So a whole Dungeon group can hop on.
Could be a ground only mount, something like a Goblin-tech-Landrover with a big cargo area. That would be awesome.

The price of gold-sinks is always linked to the income possible in that certain expansion, though. With proper setup and leveling of characters, you can have 1.5 Million (comfortably) coming in each month from just order halls when you have 10+ characters. You have to farm Resources, sure, but you can just do a couple on Argus each day that reward 1K+ per WQ.

EDIT: Garrisons had a similar feature with mass amounts of gold coming in, hence why spider cost so much.

What Blainie said. Wonder how much gold we'll be able to pull in from this kind of semi-passive activity in BFA, that should put this mount's price in perspective.

I haven't seen any garrison/order halls yet, so I'm waiting excitedly.

That'd be neat. I think they need to halt the production of city-only utility mounts. Because anti-social garrisons will start to make a comeback. 

I'm an engineer so I basically have wormholes everywhere, personal repairs with mount/jeeves/reaves, with this I'd have AH, I already have yak transmog. There is already little reason to bother with the city.

How? What's the best way to farm gold? Also, should I switch to a gathering profession (like herbalism) at the start of the expansion? I'm genuinely curious and any advice is welcome :)

      We have another triple entry in the hotfix ledger, as Radiant Echoes gets more improvements in retail, while Season of Discovery and Cata Classic get additional class changes.
       August 7  (Source)
      Player-characters
      Steady Flight should no longer be removed after entering an Arena. Quests
      We tuned up the Prototype Shredder MK-03 so that “Eye for an Eye” can be completed. Radiant Echoes Event
      Increased Flightstone and upgrade Crest drop rates in the event. Reduced the HP scaling on all event bosses so that they should be killable in a more-reasonable timeframe. Developers’ notes: This includes both ‘minibosses’ (e.g. Hogger, Thorim) and final bosses (e.g. Remembered Onyxia, Ragnaros). Season of Discovery
      Hunter Heart of the Lion once again has a 100 yard range. Warrior The Focused Rage rune will now correctly reduce the cost of Meathook by 3. Cataclysm Classic
      Fixed an issue where Faerie Fire did not deal intended amounts of threat when used on NPCs targeting another unit.

      Due to a bug introduced with the War Within pre-patch, some players are receiving item level 250 gear from the weekly cache.
      We've seen numerous reports on Reddit and the official forums that the Last Hurrah weekly quest on live servers drop low-level gear for some players. Apparently, the bug was first introduced with the War Within pre-patch two weeks ago and still hasn't been fixed.
      Here's an example of a low item level drop from the Cache of Awakened Treasures by Omnifox.

    • By Starym
      Week 2 brings quite a few changes, as Hunters in particular rise up, while Shadow has a really bad time. The top 3 remains the same and very consistent, so let's jump in and see what's going on.
      Warcraft Logs Points
      The below logs are based on POINTS, and not actual damage or healing, meaning they log the timed completion for the specs, with higher keys getting more points, obviously. The time in which the dungeon is completed is also a factor, but a much, much smaller one, as it grants very few points if you do it significantly faster than just any in-time completion. We're also using the Normalized Aggregate Scores numbers, for clarity, meaning the top spec is marked as 100 and then the rest are ranked in relation to that peak point.
      All Keys
      95th percentile DPS
      The top 3 remains quite stable with the Evoker-Paladin-Warrior trio reigning supreme. We see the first change of the week right after that though, as Frost DK continues its upward march in dungeons as well as in raids, taking 4th from Elemental. Both DKs are on the rise, as Unholy also moves a spot up, taking advantage of Shadow's precipitous 5-spot fall to the bottom of the top 10. Arms remains stable as two Hunters burst in, Beast Mastery taking 8th and Marksmanship 9th, as Frost Mage disappears down towards the bottom. Speaking of the bottom, Devastation gets some new roommates there, as Outlaw and Destruction fall and give Enhancement and Feral a break.

      Mythic+ All Keys 95th Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      All Percentiles
      As with the top percentiles, the top 3 remains solid, but 4th is immediately changed, thanks to Shadow's massive drop in performance this week. The Priest loses even more ground here, falling 9 spots into 13th, opening 4th up for Arms. Beast Mastery moves even higher here, grabbing 5th and moving in front of Elemental and Frost DK, as Marksmanship brings up the rear and completes the Hunter sandwich in 8th. Affliction breaks into the top 10, just ahead of Unholy which dropped to the final spot.

      Mythic+ All Keys All Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      Raw DPS U.GG DPS Rankings
      U.gg's rankings are based on actual DPS taken from Warcraft Logs data, focusing on the top players and span the past two weeks.
      Frost DK finds itself on top in the raw DPS rankings, as Augmentation isn't calculated properly here. Fury and Arms grab the next two spots, moving ahead of Ret, and the Fyr'alath wins continue in 5th, where Unholy finished the legendary axe streak. Even Survival joins the Hunter good times in 8th, where all three specs gather, just ahead of Balance who closes out the top 10.
      Mythic+ All Keystone DPS rankings by u.gg.
       
       
      For even more in-depth data for each individual key head on over to Warcraft Logs. And if you're interested in more info on the specs themselves you can always check out our class guides (updated for the pre-patch), as well as our Mythic+ guides and Mythic+ tier list.

      MoP Remix characters that will transfer over to retail will receive a gear boost!
      With Patch 11.0.2 now live on Public Test Realms, you can copy over MoP Remix characters from retail! It appears all MoP Remix characters will receive a character boost so you can dive straight into action when the War Within expansion launches.

      We can't unfortunately log in to the game with the MoP Remix char on the PTR so we can't confirm the Item Level of gear for max level characters. However, keep in mind that the gear boost will scale with your level, so if you're below max cap, you will receive gear appropriate to your current level.
      When Can We Expect MoP Remix Characters to Transfer to Retail?
      MoP Remix ends on August 19, so we assume the characters will need to be transferred to retail by August 22 when Early Access begins.
