I'm just happy that the starting experience is a good one.Comment by westomoprestoSo im forced to play classic for a retail reward?Comment by johntravolta342So im forced to play classic for a retail reward?Comment by Grizzlemaw1993So im forced to play classic for a retail reward?Comment by quickstopnirvanaexactly what happened with wrath classic. i’m not a classic player but was super easy for me to get that mount and i assume will be similar for this, woo!Comment by thraunSo im forced to play classic for a retail reward?Comment by apb89Do I need to purchase mists of pandaria classic to do this or is starting area available for people that have not bought itComment by JaceRaifelDo I need to purchase mists of pandaria classic to do this or is starting area available for people that have not bought itComment by KeophSo im forced to play classic for a retail reward?Comment by cpuriYeah well, it's roughly an hour, and it's been a while I've seen the pandaren starting area (but I remember it sucked quite with some long walks without access to any mount). I'm just glad it's not something actually in MoP, because that I've seen at nauseum thanks to remix.

So not too bad for a mount.Comment by addictedtopixelsDumb company gives out dumb prizes to dumb people <3Comment by PriestessAurMore skynoodles!Comment by ssithlMight be an hour and then some if they bring back the original version of the banner burning quest 'one use per spawn' ! :DComment by spongwoSo im forced to play classic for a retail reward?Comment by KatamaiSo im forced to play classic for a retail reward?Comment by ChaxtonPositive side: It's a cloud serpent, and I love those.
Negative side: having to play that dumb starting experience. I hated Pandaren, and I did not like Pandaria until we got Throne of Thunder and Siege of Orgrimmar.

I'll gladly get yet another recolored cloud serpent since those were one of the few good aspects of Pandaria. I'll be playing without sound because I'm sick of hearing those stupid fat bears telling me to slow down.
