Brewfest Kodo

Alright...

I've been playing WoW here since Vanilla, I've been through a lot of crap and not through ANYTHING have I wanted to come here and get a straight up answer about something on the forums.

Yet this time I'm livid enough to come here.

I've worked on getting a Kodo mount from Brewfest for TWO YEARS and haven't even gotten a SINGLE mount both occasions.

Now I understand drop rate, I understand the implications of it, but what I don't understand is that a GM cannot spawn a Kodo for me GIVEN that I know people who personally got SEVERAL drops of the mount and just deleted the other ones. This was even the FIRST year they've ever tried for it, while this is my SECOND and still not one mount, much less the Kodo.

I could understand this situation MUCH better if it was something that wasn't about vanity but I really want a good answer as to why you can't give me a FRIGGING Kodo when I've really worked diligently on it for so long.

It seems entirely and thoroughly unfair to me, and if I didn't think I was wronged about this I wouldn't have come here and popped the forum cherry in the first place.

Though I can understand your frustration, Xyhul, a Game Master is unable to simply spawn in the mount for you because you did not qualify for the mount. Though someone else may have been lucky and found the same item multiple times we are not able to transfer it to someone else.

If you feel that the drop rate should be changed or the ability to transfer the item given you are welcome to post in the Suggestions forum where your feedback can be reviewed.

I wish you better luck for next year, Xyhul, I'll be right there with you attempting to get the ram for the fourth year and the kodo for the third. :)

Q u o t e:
So the mage posting above is eligible for 12 mounts but the op isn't eligible for 1? Seems kind of unfair to me


All players that could do the daily were eligible, Climaxx, it is simply that some had better luck.
Q u o t e:

The point is that kodo's dropping in the bags is stupid they should be from doing the quests something that isn't rng.


Once you are able to, Climaxx, you may post in the Suggestions forum if you believe the the way this encounter and those drops work should be changed.
Q u o t e:

There you go again maybe someday you will get green text.


It is a mistake to think that others post here simply to earn the MVP title and green text, Climaxx, in fact I believe most would turn down the position if it was offered to them. Many players come here because they like to help their fellow players.

Though one snarky comment regarding a person's motivation can be forgiven I'm afraid it seems you are unwilling to actually participate in a discussion and would rather attempt to belittle others.
