Quite sad that it isn't really a new mount, could've done something with the mane like on the sea-braid stallion :(
OMG Blizzard I can't believe that after all the effort I put into collecting 400 mounts you will not be giving me a mount that would be my absolute most favorite new mount because it would be way more cooler and more awesome than the 400 mounts I already got!Unsubscribing! Kidding aside, like Soccer Moms and such that play the game actively aim for these kind of achievements. They are in fact not difficult to get, require zero mounts from anything considered hard (i.e. gladiator or being a mythic raider with all content cleared) and all you have to do mainly is log in to do your world quests and order hall $%^& for reputation and gold, and play old content. Get a grip on reality kiddos.I myself will need a good bit to get from where I am to 400. But, getting to 250 was literally done without actively farming for mounts and thanks to Argus getting to 300 was mainly the same, I only grinded for my last 10 or so mounts. Guess what they were? ^&*!ing MOP JC mounts and one engineering mount, sandstone drake and the 3 falcosaur mounts I didn't already have, okay? It was only "difficult" because instead of simply buying the mounts off the AH ages ago I crafted the profession mounts myself.
Please blizzard, give us a new reward, this horse looks like absolute crap, not worthy of a 400 mount achievement. give us something like for example a rukmhar model or the stormcrow, just anything but this lame hearthsteed recolour
Well it's nice but not satisfying enough for the 400 mounts achievement
/spit
What a !@#$ reward for a really hard achievement.
I honestly reallly like this mount but that's probably because i love the Hearthsteed so much but for a 400 mount achievement reward this is definitely a let down. Does Blizz even know how much work people have put in to reaching 400 mounts! Many many months and tons of gold + real life money for the subscriptions obviously.They really should make a unique new skeleton for a awesome completely new mount. C'mon blizz! And i'm just at 275 mounts: granted i haven't been farming mounts super actively over the 10 years i've played this but still. Give the collectors some proper love!
I wouldn't even ask for a unique skeleton because in 1-2 expansions this achievement will be just as easy as the Lord of the Reins. It is a stepping stone and there has to be room for improvement. However there is a difference between leaving room for improvement and handing us a recolor of a mount 70% of players already own anyway. I think the Infernal and many of the mounts Neolarva posted are perfect examples for what the 400 mount reward should have been.Not unique but a rare model, definitely good looking (fine, this one is subjective) and raising eyebrows whenever you pull it out.
At first I thought that this is just a joke but.. is it?That just makes me sick. Giving a stupid recolor of some ugly mount given for free in some stupid game for a really hard task like this.And if that wasn't enough they actually changed his bad version for even worse one :)All those rewards in BfA for hard achievements like 100 exalted rep aren't just worth working for it. I'm really disappointed with incoming exapnsion as for now.
still better looking than the Gul'dan mounts/shaman class mount. I absolutely loathe those models.I always wanted the cindermane charger, but I can't partake in RAF due to where I live, so I don't care if this is "just a recolour" of the hearthstone steed. I can finally match my lava cat from HoTS with a flying mount on my shaman.I love the new version of this, rather than the blue/red version.Also, I am so disappointed in 90% of the mounts of WoW anyway, yet I collect them whenever I can.
They could of added one of the unused legion skins which are far better looking...http://www.warcraftmounts.com/mounts/blackreddreamrunner.phphttp://www.warcraftmounts.com/mounts/greenstormdrake.php
Would have been freaking awesome if it was a celestial hearthsteed recolor. Or a nice drake recolor ex. reskin of a stormheim dragon. Hearthsteed *!@# recolor mount that no one wants. Please change this before live Blizzard. People are raging.
Extremely dissapointing, Id rather have another high-res dragonhawk. Or anything else for that matter... this one is just underwhelming.
They are going through with this? lolWill never use this
It was better with the blue/red colors. Now it just looks like the RaF mount.
A Stormdrake or that Lightning crow mount that was datamined many, many expacs ago would have been so much better :(Personally I just wish they'd stop using that 'horse' skeleton completely, it just really badly proportioned, slides slightly when walking/running as the animation doesn't quite match the ground covered when moving, and having the legs just flap around whilst it's flying looks utterly stupid, not to mention that at the highest flight speed it makes the hooves look broken, to me just looks wrong because of it.
