Is the only way to obtain this new Anglers' Water Striders BOA item to be an owner of a Water Strider before 8.2? I'm curious because I hit Exalted with The Anglers literally 5 minutes ago. Wondering if I should buy the Strider now for 4,000 Gold, or wait when 8.2 drops in order to buy it for 1,000.
Okay the idea is good but the mean is bad... I want a PERMANENT equipment, not a consumable one. So i can click to switch the equipment on the mount interface at will, like changing talent in a rested place, but everywhere. If thats not the case... id rather have no change to the current system to be able to summon the mount i need for the purpose i need.
Please remove DK and Shammys water walk spells and make them pay gold every time they want to use them and remove water walk potion while you are at it
Why should the water striders stop being able to walk on water. What if I want a different item in my equipment slot, I should still be able to have a mount that can water walk
Question.... So if you are damaged while walking on water do you lose the gear on the mount and have to buy another one or does it stay until you buy a different one and equip it?
50G is still a little high, 1g sounds about right
Blizzard you keep creating problems where they don't exist! Do you really deep down in your soul want this game to die!We already have mount equipment, and its working fine. Hoofplates, Stirrups, Barding. And the fact that you can use each of them at the same time! This is a much bigger NERF bat than I think most of you realize.You are taking away in place options and telling us you are giving us options. Nothing was wrong with the water strider. If you wanted to give people the option to walk on water with any mount, Great! Just have a profession craft an item for people to use, create, sell, share... whatever. You are taking away Crafting options, you are removing income generating items, you are going to impact the gathering professions, my god, there is so much you could have done to enrich the game, deepen professions, not piss off players, make others happy by providing a path to water wallking without removing water walking from current mounts.You make no sense. Its ok to strip one mount of its unique ability but its ok to leave another mount its unique ability (i.e. gathering?) Why not just make all mounts fly? Or no mounts fly and make us have to buy a freaking set of wings, like a wing tax. I mean it makes sense... Why should a Griffon be able to fly, when a Water Walking Bug cant walk on water?What the hell is going on at Blizzard? What do I pay you for? Who is in charge of these ideas? Who approves them?You are directly impacting options negatively! Right now, I can go on my Warrior, I can put on Barding which keeps me from being dazed. I can install Hoofplates, which allows me a little speed increase AND i can install Stirrups so i can mine ore without dismounting. Those are all options I have.That is mount equipment and its works fine.I am also a Blacksmith and a Miner. I create Hoofplates and Stirrups. I sell them and support myself. You are taking away that option. I mine for ore and create them for myself, my alts, for the AH, for my friends. This is really not about the Water Strider in truth. I kinda don't even like the mount that much. But I do appreciate its purpose, and the time I invested in getting it. It is unique. It doesn't fly, it doesn't swim fast, its not supposed to. Its supposed to walk on water. Should I just expect some other fool to go experimenting on dragons next and decimate the population, making an entire species of being suddenly loose its ability to fly and then tell me I can buy some special wings so that I can make all other creatures fly for 50g? Who the hell is this person in the coming patches thats going to do this and what fool of a developer thought it was good idea?I am angry. And its not about the freaking Water Strider. Its about you guys and your development. Spend our money and your time developing content that is engaging and fun, deep and creative, spend our money on story-telling and character development, and enrich the game. Update zones, create more dungeons, world content and just well, dont create problems that dont exist. Stop taking stuff away in the guise of giving us something.
jesus christ, when blizzard start making everything for everyone they start lossing subs alot........ why someone must earn a rep for strider and now you can buy a dumb mount equipment for 50gold WTF
