Rant about Winter Veil Loot Table - No offense
So. I always do the Winter Veil. I love the events Warmane throw at us.
I have also been quite against some of the rewards, because I thought they were rather meaningless.
On the other hand, I also think that you can be a tad too generous.
Once again. I actually enjoy the events.
First of all, a lot of people are getting **** they already have in the first place. It wouldn't be so bad if you actually got stuff you still needed to collect.
Second. 5% chance to get a Black Qiraji Battle tank. I personally have brought one for the 150 coins it costs in the store. I also intended to purchase a second one for my shaman. But it's not even close to rare if this is how we're seeing things from now on.
5% doesn't seem like a lot. But that's 2 people per 40-man raid.
Which also means you'll have a 50% chance of getting it on a character if you just do this chain on 10 different character.
I know people with several accounts, who would do this, just to get that mount alone.
Black Qiraji Battle Tank is an item you can purchase from the store if you have donated 1.000$+ to Warmane or you get lucky with the weekly lottery.
If everyone on Icecrown did this quest on 5 characters then 25% of the server would have Black Qiraji Battle Tank.
How is it even close to rare if 1/4 of the population has one?
I'd really like you to reconsider the drop chances of **** in that loot box before things gets out of hand.
I'm sorry, but I personally work 80 hours a week in order to afford that mount. Some things are supposed to be rare. This one should have never been this easy to get.
If you want it to drop, lower the drop chance before your whales on the server stop keeping you alive.
No offense meant by this. It's just a thought and a suggestion. I'm not here to play high and mighty with bragging rights. But I do believe some specific items should be meant for people who actually help keeping this server alive. I've been here since 2011. I've done my fair share with playtime, raiding and support.
Maybe it's time you reconsider the way you're heading.
To sum it up. I think the loot table of the bag from the quest chain is broken. Would do it on another character. But I, as a donator feel like some of my money has been a waste by now. I did enjoy the event. Was pretty cool to me.
