Onyxia 310% Mount will only be..

...from 25 man and the Hard Mode option. As a semi casual but part time raider, this is obvious. So hopefully all the QQ wil be done with soon since this will NOT be dropping from 10 man. And to those who say "But they havent given details, you dont know that.", you are just lying to yourself and have fun with that. Your tears will feed my new Onyxia Pet come November! Mmmm... =P

UPDATE: Happy to be proven wrong on this one. :D So original post stands corrected, blue provided a minor (but huge impact) detail below.

We haven't given details, you don't know that.

There is no Heroic mode for the 5-year anniversary Onyxia encounter. There will just be 10- and 25-player normal mode versions, both of which have an equal chance to reward the Brood of Onyxia mount.

Nothing dries those soiled eyes like a small scoop of facts.

Q u o t e:
thank you for proving that having a 310% mount means nothing anymore in this game.

You're going to force me to use a double-edged sword here. Whether or not this makes you happy, it's bound to give others a case of the frowns.

The drop rate will be extremely low. One day I will have it, though as soon as I loot it I'll probably be struck by lightning on a sunny day and attacked by a shark, all while in the presumed comfort of my living quarters.

Q u o t e:
Wait, casuals deserve 310% mounts... why? You can already have all the gear in the game, now you want the one distinction that's left for good play?

That said, I raid 9-12 hours a week and have 3, soon to be 4 310% mounts. Go me.

Congratulations.

Q u o t e:
So you're saying having a 310% speed mount that I worked an entire year for is wasted effort since you're giving it out to anyone who can get carried?

Cool.

Edit: and don't say "lul tempest keep" because that was endgame content at level 70. T5 and T6 content was NOT something you could get carried through, to the extent you can get carried now. Ony will be puggable when they revamp it. People will have it on farm, and there will be tons of broodling flying around, far more than phoenix mounts.

Have you a 1-800 number? I'd like to know more about my future.
