News from the front

Browsing the internets in boredom, I come across this.

Though whoever mocked that up did it a little shoddily, it's a pretty cool idea, especially if it's dropped rather than bought. Perhaps from hUtgarde80, a rare drop from the last boss - seeing as Valkyries go with vikings, which is sorta what the Vyrkul are.

I think properly it'd read something like this:

Reins of the Valkyrie's Steed
Binds when picked up
Requires Riding (150)
Use: Summons and dismisses a ridable spectral horse. This is a very fast mount. Only usable while in ghost form.

I'd pay it.

Also:

"imo if you want to pay the $25 you should be allowed. not allowing pve->pvp xfers is an outdated idea from the first era of wow, where people actually cared about the horde/alliance division and so sought out pvp for the purpose of fighting the other faction, rather than for honor, points, or fun. the people who arena for the sake of arena don't care about killing the other faction, they care about beating the other teams - sportsmen rather than patriots, I guess.

since then, 60s and later 70s have found better things to do with their time. ganking is mostly a thing of the past." - me on the Oceanic Alliance PvE realms -> Thaurissian thing, taken from a thread in the Cael forums

Funny how the game's evolved over time, eh.
