X-53 Touring Rocket: Pending redemption?

#0 - April 12, 2010, 9:12 p.m.

Hello all,

If I recruit a friend right now, have him pay for two months subscription, and as a result, receiving an un-redeemed Zhevra mount, will that pending redemption turn into the X-53 Rocket mount, when the X-53 Touring Rocket is introduced?

I have a friend that wants to play, and he is asking me to recruit him, but I would like to get the X-53 when it comes out as well. I would hate to RAF, get the pending Zhevra, and then have X-53 come out and not be able to get it, and regret recruiting my friend instead of waiting.

I, and hundreds of WoW players would absolutely LOVE it if a GM could verify whether or not pending Zhevra redemptions will be converted to pending X-53 Touring Rocket redemptions when the X-53 is released. If not, I will be a sad panda. Cant wait to hear from you!

Sincerely,
Lougehrig

According to the information we have currently, yes. :)

Important notes:

If you've claimed your Recruit-A-Friend gift and received the Zhevra you'll need to refer a new friend (thus gaining a new reward to redeem and claim after this change) to also obtain the X-53 Touring Rocket. If you have a reward waiting around you have not claimed it can be used to claim a Zhevra now, or you can wait and claim an X-53 after the change.

Pre-paid game cards and pre-paid game time codes will instantly apply game time to an account. Therefore, if a veteran account would like to quickly qualify for the in-game mount reward, the recruit account can opt to subscribe using pre-paid game cards or codes. Game cards are available at many local retailers, and game codes may be purchased on the Blizzard Store here: http://us.blizzard.com/store/details.xml?id=110000004

Veteran accounts will remain eligible for Recruit-A-Friend subscription rewards even after the 90-day account link expires. This means if an inactive recruit account resubscribes and then purchases 60 days of game play, the veteran account will still be able to redeem the 30-day game credit and in-game mount.
