World of Warcraft celebrates its 20th anniversary by selling a $90 version of a mount that cost $475 around 6 years ago, knocking the MMO's economy sideways
That much for the Trader's G🍰ilded Brutosaur is ludicrous! Give me fiv✨e of them

As part of World of Warcraft's 20th anniversary celebrations, Bli😼zzard is selling a $90 version of a mount that would have cost you $475 around six years ago – and itꦜ's causing a bit of a scene.
Some MMO history to start: Back in 2018, with the launch of the Battle for Azeroth expansion, we got the colossal Reins of the Mighty Caravan Brut🎃osaur mount. He's big, he's beautiful, and he cost five million in gold from vendors, which amounted to at the time, give or take.
Aside from being an absolute unit, our Brutosaur friend sets itself apart from 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:other mounts as it can house two NPC vendors selling goods or repairing weapons a𓄧nd armor. Or, more interestingly, give players remote access to the MMO's Auction House and save you a jaunt back to Stormwind or ꦫOrgrimmar - a bit of a financial flex, but still a vibe to see a Brutosaur stomp about.
Regardless, as Battle of Azeroth gave way to Shadowlands in late 2020, the Brutosaur could no longer be purchased from vendors. The mount does appear on the Black Market Auction House here and there, though the price starts at five million gold, and, uh, that's a bit of coin. Just before the new version o♋f the Brutosaur mount dropped, 🍌for the old one. A bit of coin!
Now, World of Warcraft fans can get the next best thing. as part of the MMO's 20th-anniversary celebrations for $90 bucks. The big brute essentially does the same thing as its Brutosaur bro but is seemingly smaller and rather fashionably adorned in gold plating to mark the occasion. As this WoW mount is here for the anniversary celebrations, you only ha🔥ve until January 6, 2025 to pick one up.
The reaction among the MMO co💞mmunity has been mixed. On the one hand, $90 bucks is a lot! But on the other hand, it's certainly a lot less than $475.
I know they said they regretted making the transmog yak so easily obtainable and didn't want an auction⛎ house mount to be a common thing, but this is ridiculo🐼us. //t.co/16itdFbEk5
It costs more than the War Within…..

Regardless, the new Brutosaur mount is proving its popularity quickly. So much so that World of Warcraft's in-game economy is feeling the sting. One way of getting the mount is simply parting with $90, but there is another way. If you've got the gold, you can purchase WoW Tokens at the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Auction House, which can then be redeemed for $15 in Battle.net store credit. In theory, six WoW Tokens should be enough to get the new Brutosaur mount, but it's proving not so simple. The gold cost of a WoW Token ꧃is forever in flux, and, well, there's a new Brutosaur mount, so the

Is a World of Warcraft mount being mo🐓re expensive than the MMO's latest expansion great? No. Is that going to stop me from joining the Brutosaur bros? Also no.
