We recently returned to WoW and introduced Trip to the game. He level boosted, made a dracthyr, then we decided to do the holiday dungeon after some questing. Unbelievable luck.
@@Yue_Jin I've had many long breaks but usually come back for new expansions, wasn't planning on playing again but my friends convinced me to get back into it
Nothing new. Blizzard is rewarding new and returning players with rare loot in order to make them stay. A friend of mine who had to create a new account because he couldn't access his old one, got the Antorus mythic mount, Invincible and the infinite timewaster on his first tries. I for my part didn't play the game for 2 years and had over 60 kills for the second part of the windseeker binding (molten core), got it first try when I came back and it actually made me play retail again. They know what they are doing and scenarios like this one isn't rare, on the contrary... New players will get rare shit easily until it's not easy anymore ^^ Grats on the rocket anyways.
The same happened to me with the Halloween mount in 2011 when I started playing. I thought that it was something that was given to everyone on their first run. When I saw my guildmates freaking out seeing me with it I realized the stupid luck I had.
Long time buddy of mine farms this mount every year since 2010 on 25 toons, has NEVER got it. This guy does it the first time and boom! What the actual fuck lol
Been playing since Vanilla have never gotten it. I have only seen it drop once and that was also for someone in our guild the first time she did the run over 10 years ago.
Same happened to me, also on a dracthyr. The sad thing is - i really wanted the Love Armor for proto-drakes :c You'd think it would be a more common drop, but nope. I wish i could trade the rocket with someone who ACTUALLY wants it and get my edgy armor instead...
Me and my friend first started playing WoW 2013/2014ish and we did Onyxia's Lair for the first time, mount dropped and I won the roll. Had no idea until way later that it was a rare mount
Duuude i did just the same like 5 days ago except i'm not a new player but i pretty much ignored all the small event dungeons since WoD.. Went into this one for the first time ever and pulled the Rocket ^-^
i had similar scenario , i start playing in BFA . i did see a cool fire bird , guy told me its form a raid with an elf , i did try 1 time and got it , since than i dont play wow . (only after a year i did see a random video like this one , about hard to obtain mounts and this bird was in it, i dint know it was low % till then )
When I first stepped into the emerald dream, the first ever purple seed I opened I got the saber mount, and then each and every blue seed I opened that day awarded me a different pet. When my gf opened the guo-lai caches, she literally got a super-rare drop every time she opened one until there were no longer any new rare drops for her to get. I calculated that the chance for that happening is like one in a billion. BUT for a new player, keyboard turning, open each bag one by one levels of new player, to literally get the X-45 on the first try. That's just insane!
i did this 15 f*cking times every god damn day since release of this mount never even saw it dropping and that MoFo get´s it first try. From the bottom of my soul Congratz but still F.U.
I hope the guy that said "only a couple people in the world have it" doesn't actually believe that. It's considered a rare mount, but nowhere near that rare. I saw 11 people lined up on them in Valdrakken earlier today on my tiny server.
Nah, definitely more common now, I actually got it my last attempt this week. But he said it generally as a quick explanation to our friend who has no idea what's going on lol
This literally just happened to me, my best friend who has never run it before opens the love rocket on the first kill. and is just like "oh. i got it i guess"
Ive only ever had a mount drop of the first try twice, the first one was the guldan mount and the second was the mount that came from the rare in the maw that allowed you to mount in the maw before they made so you could mount there by default haha
@@sonija28 yeah I think it’s a good looking mount! My buddy had been trying to get that mount for a long time and randomly asked if I wanted to come along for one of his runs. I ended up getting it and he didn’t… he was not happy lmfaooo
how would u know u would have it xD even if doing the event, its not like theres 0 ppl here talking about how many years and how many toons they farmed it on, SURE u would just have it, but forgot the event. thats why@@DragonProtector
It's funny, I also got it last year after around 5 tries... and I'm not a collector, never farmed it before, I don't have any cool mounts. But I do know it's 1 in 3000 chance or something. So, I was very confused.
I finally got it this year after trying since 2017, total of about 1500 tries and using 5 accounts. This mount is such a good one to get on the first try too, it will unlock hoards of salt, a kiss/curse if you will.
It’s great to see a new player enjoying the game for what it is and playing with a group of friends. Wow almost feels like a solo adventure nowadays. I miss the unknown of running dungeons with no prior experience and getting a rare drop but not knowing what it is or does 🤣
I’ve played WoW many years going solo or playing with one other person, this is the most fun I’ve had in a long time playing with family and friends and having an experience like this for a new player 😊
Meh don’t see a point on playing Classic when we’ve already had that experience playing Vanilla and the following expansions originally, I played Classic for a month and that was enough to relive my nostalgia
