Welp, now I just don't care about this mount. I better use gold cap to pay 5 years sub time. (If I ever gonna get that amount of gold obviously)
HaHa called it. Although I'm still curious why they removed it in the first place. Maybe a new AH mount gold sink will be introduced at a later point?
Why remove it from the vendor? Why not just leave it as is? GG gold sink ideas blizz?
Removed
So it has moved from "I'll never blow that much gold on it" to "I'll never blow that much gold on it." Cool.
Thank you Blizzard for making the right call to balance it out for those who already bought it and those who are planning to buy it.It was sold for 5 million from vendor to sink out gold.Then they removed it and placed it on Black Market to make it rarer due to now during Shadowlands and future expansions more and more people will obtain 5 million gold.By adding it to Black Market it will be harder to obtain, and by making it 5 million starting bid it will not make it cheaper for newer people to buy but the opposite which I find fair.So thank you Blizzard for making it still available for those who didn't get it during BfA but still makes it same price or more expansive.
That is very fair. I was afraid the mount would be at a ''regular'' starting bid, and that I would've regretted seeing it go for prices under 5M on low-pop realms.
I didn’t need any confirmation from to know that this was going to be 5 mil starting bid. Sad it was removed, but understandable. The only mount I have that I was anxious about getting.
Blizzard laughing all the way to the bank. It's a glorified store mount.
Couldn't get it then, won't get it now I guess
You know, when it began all this thing about not being able to buy in SL, and only on the BMHA I thought: "god damit now it will rise its price to gold cap" but somebody on this post once said "only few people bought the brutosaur, 5M, who could want it at gold cap?" and I agree with that. Then, I was thinking: "maybe it was going to be at a lower price, no sense to be at a BMHA at 5M right? maybe 1M or 2M to "start" the bid"well...jokes on me, I gotta say that price is pointless, I can even tell you it's the first item on the whole BMHA that surpasses a million gold to start the bid.
Then there was literally no point to move it the BMAH aside from bolstering WoW Token sales. I'm disgusted.
Figured it out cause I was almost gonna pay real money, then I figured it was actually like $950 in my region. So... hell no
Well, it's fun to see real world capitalism bleed into my only means of escape from it. Anyone who thinks the longboi will ever go for anything less than the gold cap is deluding themselves. It may as well be deleted from the game outright given 99% of the community will never see it again. No one can afford this thing who isn't a gold farmer, a token whale, or a craft merchant who minmaxes profits on the AH.
