I adore my ram mount collection…

But sucks to be us anyway, looks like it’s HOPS only (AKA temporary mount change, like with the Christmas reindeer). And for me 2G and 20G hops did exactly the same thing, so don’t bother with the 20G ones, hm?

And they lost the Pink Elek and Wolpertinger Qs, which were 2 of the best Qs ever… Ergh. Suddenly I don’t feel so festive.

Well, I for one did not play WoW for several months last year and wouldn’t you know it, it happen to fall within the Octoberfest last year. So i missed out on the ram for my hordies and even one for my NE on my alliance realm. I feel the same with alot of posts about it not being fair and what not. I loved how it gave horde a chance to get a new mount. Though, on my horde toons i would love to get the Wintersaber mount. I liked how blizz atleast gave horde a chance to get a mount that was new instead of the hawkstrider. Instance mounts are fun and i have been in kara 100’s of times with never seeing Atun’s drop nor any from any other instance. So i for one still hope,pray, wish that horde will get a option to rep grind for a special mount like the Alliance can in Everlook, but that horse has been beaten sooooo many times. The ram gave us something to look forward too this year but this new info brings regret for me leaving WoW to begin with. I do have the worst timing lol. Cheers to all and good luck to those in Wotlk.

“Had the Brewfest mount been a Bull, a Bear, or a big Saint Bernard with a cask strapped to his neck, it would have been a lot better and worth getting than something that was ultimately gonna make everyone throw such a monumental hissy-fit, leading Blizz to instill this particular lockdown.” I also agree with this. Having a neutral mount would be great!!!! I SOOO vote the st bernard as well :D :D :D

Yes, a nuetral mount would’ve been far better. I totally put my money on a Saint Bernard though lol, would’ve been great

Meh… I still stand by my view that the whole thing could have been far-easier avoided, had they just gone with a neutral and universal mount that didn’t wasn’t about the “you got your chocolate in my peanut butter/you got your peanut butter in my chocolate” argument that seems to permeate the whole Alliance/Horde-player rivalry.

Had the Brewfest mount been a Bull, a Bear, or a big Saint Bernard with a cask strapped to his neck, it would have been a lot better and worth getting than something that was ultimately gonna make everyone throw such a monumental hissy-fit, leading Blizz to instill this particular lockdown.

I really hope that both factions have access to both brewfest mounts, i’d love to see my dwarf getting on the Kodo ;)

Kodos are better looking than eleks anyway

Good thing my druid already has Swift Brewram O.o
My CC hunter has a wolf, and personaly I like them much better than the rams so I’m okay.. But that really stinks that Horde might not be able to get rams!!! Plus, my dwarf would look funny on a Kodo..

Oh well, might change later, where can I find a pic of the Brewfest Kodo?
