Drop rate on the Big Love Rocket

[Jy]

Can someone confirm please? If it only drops if you group queue or if it also drops if you go alone/1 friend into the instance. Because I always see alot of people in front of Shadowfang Keep going out/reset instances/enter again.

Same Question.
I try it with 2 firends just enter without que over rdf we did 60 to 80 Runs and not 1 Rocket.

You people forget its all RNG.
You can do 105105015010510510 runs and not see even 1 rocket.
You could do 1 run and get lucky.
RNG is unpredictable.

After 2 days farming (and very much runs on this 2 days) i got it. Next day we tried to get it for a friend ... after 2 runs it drops again.

--> Lordaeron

I'd say it's an unnormal drop rate.
Supposed to be 0.03%...

[Pavsed]

Yeah got mine already too.

Agreed. I've been farming it on 2-3 characters, every day during the event for the last 4 years on retail. I have yet to see it.

It's only supposed to drop from the daily reward bag for the event. The fact that people are able to farm it like they have been is broken anyways.

Is it available in Lordaeron

I entered the dungeon solo without partying up with people and I got 2 mounts with around 10-15 runs on both toons but then when I was goin to get the 3rd rocket I did well over 70 runs without anything. The event ended now and I did it on Ragnaros.

Pretty crappy looking mount

I don't understand, the mount is a reward from heart-shaped box which is rewarded by doing the dungeon through RDF only the first time per day, how do you make 70 runs and get 70 chances ?
and what about lordaeron, can it be received there ?

On ragnaros when I got the mount it just dropped from the boss "hummel", you could do the dungeon 5 times before you got "you have entered too many instances recently" but just wait 30 mins and then go again.

The quest itself didnt work on ragnaros so the mount itself just have a low drop chanse but Im not sure about lordaeron.

Normally thread necromancy is bad, but considering the subject is still relevant, I'll let it go.

[Kempachu]

Does it even work on Frostwolf ?

I feel fairly certain they either deliberately or mistakenly had the drop rate at about 1%. It's supposed to be about a .02-.04% drop, essentially one of the rarest mounts in retail(likely the rarest given the short amount of time available to get it). I've done 3 other years of Love is in the Air events at Molten and the rate was never as such, it was an exceedingly rare mount and I knew only a small handful of people with verified drops(meaning they didn't just donate it) compared to this year where I bet my guild alone had 15-20 drops in the first 2-3 days.

I got mine on my first run. Didn't expect it, simply queued for the boss clear achieve and it dropped and I won it. I was flabbergasted until I helped two guildies do about 50ish runs and saw another drop. Then about an hour after that the 3rd guildie got his and after I logged back 6 hours later probably 8 guildies alone had it. A 1% drop rate would make sense, especially with how you could brute force runs by making a premade and queuing in, killing the one boss who dropped the loot in 5 seconds and booking it back outside to queue again. Anyone who could dedicate a few hours towards doing some runs would certainly see 1-3+ drops and I'd bet on almost no more than 7-8 total hours to get an entire 5 man group their own mount.

I hesitate to say whether the staff was being generous and upping the rate on purpose or there was simply a mistake made and they weren't going to bother hotfixing but it'll be interesting to see if history repeats itself next year.

The daily rewards from any rdf queue special event boss don't exist on Molten/Warmane and never have. The bosses simply drop loot like any other boss and it's group looted, which normally makes getting the rocket even harder because not only do you need to get it to drop, you need to outroll 4 other people. Because of this "bug" it meant you could make a premade and just spam the rdf queue and try 50+ times an hour for the boss. Given the high drop rate it usually meant 1-2 hours of tries would yield at least one mount drop if not more.

I really hope Warmane staff give special attention to fixing all the bugs and achievements and loot related to world events, it's been something that is sorely lacking. Also given that they only fix stuff that is reported it means you have to wait for each event to come and go before anyone even files a report much less hoping it is fixed.
