Sadness is... (WoW)

[thistlechaser]

Sadness is getting the Brewfest Kodo in your reward barrel... when that character got it once already. D:

Score for Brewfest so far:

Keen (mount collector) - Kodo x2!
Haken: Kodo
Crowfeathers: Ram
Thack: No mount, but the remote

It's nice how many people are still doing the boss. Even at 6:30 AM, my queue time is one minute or less.

I'm going to stick the extra kodo in the bank (with the FIVE sewer rats I got after his first one) in case one day Blizz makes these things BoA. Probably will never happen, but doesn't hurt to keep it.

I think people are right, the odds for things dropping seem much much higher than usual. I've heard three different reports of people getting both mounts in one reward barrel.

Narukh (My orc shaman) got the Ram last night, and the Tankard O'Terror -- though that I put in our Guild Bank. :)

I'm loving the 1-2 minute queues! That's awesome. Fast queues + simple fight = free frost badges! I wish they'd updated the actual drops off of Coren Direbrew though, iLevel 200 clones of the badge trinkets are pretty boring loot, though I do like the brew maiden ones. Also got enough honor to buy another PVP mount, I'm up to 87 total! Maybe I'll get the kodo too, though I'm not going to hold my breath.

Yeah, I've gotten one Tankard O'Terror, but I stuck it in my guild bank as well. I'll sell it in a few months, when the market isn't flooded with them.

Yes! It's so fast and easy, I don't even worry while going on my more sucky 80s -- the fights are over and I can leave before anyone has time to say anything!

Woo! You're catching up to me! And another reason to be excited for Cata: More mounts!

I saw several up for 80G last night. :) I almost bought them all!

Short queues are love!

I know, right? I think I might have to go do other PVP stuff to get more mounts, which makes me a sad panda. PVP is horrible in WoW. I can't see how anyone could possibly enjoy it with how bad it is. I'm SO glad I'm not on Kil'Jaeden anymore -- not because I wasn't in an awesome guild, not because I wasn't dealing with awesome people -- mostly because I can't stand PVP, it was a constant exercise in frustration and rage. And people never started a fight with anything approaching fairness, it was always ambushes and zergs.

Boo. All of our tankards are 300-400 gold (with a crapton up). More than I'm willing to gamble on them going up from.

Still working off 0 mounts, booo. Although I got a remote! Now, for most people that's rather useless, but for me, it means I can get to MC to do soloing and such WAAAAAAY easier then before. At least until they probably do something to change the way things are layed out and the remote becomes useless in a couple months, but still!

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

Yay remote! You're working with just one 80, right? Alas that lowers your odds a bit!

But there's still half the holiday left to go! Hopefully one will drop for you!

Meh, increasing the odds to get it on a character I don't want to get it on doesn't really increase the odds in the way I'd like :P

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

True! *crosses fingers for ya!*

The drop rate of stuff definitely seems quite high. I'm working with four 80s, but I've gotten a crapton of stuff. I got two pets and one scythe during the Midsummer Fire Festival (and all on the same character, boo), and that was it. So far for Brewfest I've gotten two rams, one kodo, one remote, one shanker, and three tankards. A guildie got a shanker, a tankard, and one other thing (ram?) all from the same bag. It's nuts.

I'm really, really, really, REALLY hoping the odds will be like this for the Halloween event, too. Oh how I want that mount!

A guildie got a shanker, a tankard, and one other thing (ram?) all from the same bag.

Ha! That's impressive!
