Title: Guess what...!
Post by: Kaleeko on October 20, 2006, 12:48:53 AM
After much whining and complaining, many repair bots and bribing and flirting, lo and behold!:

I have a pony too, but it's not epic. I was fortunate enough to get the horse by accident even though I'm not exalted with SW yet. Close, but not close enough.

Selling them?  Ugh... using them whilst farming...?  Yeah.. I give up.

Whenever I drop repair bots in raids, I always make around 30g. Simply because I farm the mats for them instead of buying, and since I'm female, I almost /always/ have two or three people that give me 5-10g, and then everyone else gives me at least 1g for the trouble. When you do 1-2 raids a day, and maybe drop 1-2 repair bots each time (depending on how many people were stupid enough not to repair before leaving), it's a nice little profit. :)

But, flirting gets me the most gold. I got about 50g each from several guy friends, plus 400g from a particular friend in the guild. Being a girl pays off sometimes. :)

Epic mounts are 90g though now.. If you had your riding skill before 1.12 it barely costs anything.

Riding skill cost went up, mounts went down. -.^  I still thought the epics were more than 90 though.

Hrm. Sidoh - I got bored of your server, your pvp blows... so yeah, I won't be on Sabetha much anymore, but I left you off with 120g, good holy/prot spec, 4 bank bag slots, and a bunch of other shit, and two free months of WoW. Enjoy.  :P

I knew I made the mistake of rolling a NE for a reason. Though, actually, I get hit on mostly from people  hearing my voice on vent. I actually got one guy who was spamming people in my guild asking "Who is that heavenly voice on vent?!" My guildies still won't let me live it down (when I connect, Simon always says "What is this heavenly voice I hear?", haha), but the worst of it is I actually went to Molten Core with said paladin the other day, and I made the mistake of asking for a summons over vent... Yeah. I got to listen to his banter the entire raid. -_-

Also, the ability to ride was changed from an ability in your abilities window (such as Tiger Riding ability or Horse Riding), to a generic skill of either 75 or 150 in the Skills tab of your character panal. That's actually why I can ride my horse. My friend bought me a BoE pony before the patch and mailed it to me (so I'd have it as soon as I reached exalted), but then the patch hit, and the riding skill become generic to all mount types. Kinda saddens me I have my epic cat now, though, because I can't flaunt the fact that I ride a horse without being exalted with SW. Sigh, sigh.

That doesn't make sense. It being a "generic skill" would mean you could ride the horse as long as you had 150 riding skill. Before patch 1.12 you only needed to buy the 20g riding training for the level 40 mount, if you had this pre-1.12, you got 150 riding skill.

The rank 11 mounts I think are alot better. Its bullshit that they switched the riding skill cost and the mount cost. Becuase once you hit Rank 11 the mount is only 90g. Plus their black. So sexy rogue armor "which my druid is wearing =P" looks pretty nice.

No; the non-epic mount riding skill is "75" (apprentice riding), so you actually have to pay 720g to upgrade to the 150 skill, unless you already had the epic mount riding ability pre-patch. It's generic because before patch, it was an ability specific to the kind of mount; if you were a human, you learned horse riding, etc. If you got someone of another race to buy you a BoE (only the non-epics were BoE) mount, you still couldn't ride it, because you had Horse Riding, and not Tiger Riding (and in order to learn the skill, you had to be exalted with the faction). But now, riding skill is not mount-type specific. You just have to be exalted with a faction to BUY their mount (or that race), and post-patch, ALL mounts are BoP.

I think it's retarded that they switched the costs, though (the mount used to be 720g and the skill 80g) because if you bought your riding skill before the patch for some strange reason, you got off buying your epic mount for it a LOT easier. Insofar, though, I have yet to meet anyone that was able to take advantage of this. The only thing I've seen it change for anyone is the fact I can ride my pony now.

Actually, right now I'm really tempted to transfer somewhere else... but can't be Maelstorm. Maelstorm = PvPRP ; Kargath = PvE. Fucking Blizzard.

Kaleeko, there was no other riding skill for an epic mount pre-1.12, you obviously weren't 60 before then.

Oh! Haha.  :-X And, now that you pointed that out (I guess I really didn't pay attention to the patch number you said, now I feel dumb ^^), I understand what you mean. That's really strange.
