    A Way To Give Anyone A Chance At Hellhound Mounts?

    I've always wanted at least one of the mounts but sadly I started way too late and queues were bad so I missed a chance at the red one, wanted that most. PvPers deserve their rewards and they should not be simply given out to people who do not put in effort. Or else their achievements are devalued.

    However I propose an idea.. it would allow players to have chance at all mounts while still requiring more effort than the ranked winners.

    I propose.. that the Hellhounds(and possibly future mounts) be purchasable via a Wolves' Den vendor with 4 million wolf marks. You read that right. 4 million wolf marks. 4,000,000. Each.

    As insane as it sounds, I think a Fenrir-style grind would be a great addition to PvP as we'd finally have something to spend our capped marks on. And needing 4,000,000 marks each... I'd say that would take effort. And maybe some medicine.. But it's a worthy trade for not hitting top 100 or 30.

    And they could even make a Kirin-style achievement for collecting all 4 *evil laugh*


    Here's how this could be done:
    1) Players buy tokens that cost 20,000 wolf marks.

    2) To limit inventory bloat and 4 stacks of tokens, players with 5 20k tokens will be able to trade them in for 1 token representing 100,000 marks.

    3) You will need 40 of the 100k tokens to trade for the mount.

    Possible Problems and Solutions:
    1) Wintrading. To combat this, remove the 250 mark reward from Light Party feast. Either that, or actually ban the people or find some method.

    2) Wolf mark boost actions. I say remove them from the game. The numbers are already inflated as it is so I don't think we need those actions.


    PvP needs to have long-term goals that aren't solely decided by the RNG that is a bad team. It would require 4,000 frontline wins in a row to reach 4 million. So no one will easily get a mount. But people should have an option. Even if it's medically lethal.

    EDIT: only available after seasons are over

    No thanks. They're exclusive mounts for a reason. If everyone were able to get them, they would lose their value. Every second garo boy has the 200 win feast mount, the ADS mount, and platinum and even diamond wolf titles now have been devalued by replacing skill with grind.

    Good luck trying to get it in S4.

    Did you end in top 100? No , you don't deserve the mount.

    Not to be rude, but does everyone really need everything? Let a group of people have something special for once.

    I think you're overestimating the amount of players who actually have those mounts. Besides, wintrading in Light Part Feast already devalued the mount.

    But if SE is going to stick with exclusive PvP mounts, let's make the 4.0 raid mounts exclusive as well. It'd only be fair.

    Light party mount certainly should not be a timed exclusive, or should not be limited to just 30 people per datacenter. Not with how Light Party matches and ratings are exploited now. When I was in LP que for hours for a chance to get it all we got are a few withdrawals from wintraders, and I don't have time to camp them at 4AM like other people did. This mount is simply not fair to obtain.

    It's not solely decided by RNG and you may say 4million wolf marks aren't easy but from my point of view it is because you just need to q up and not worry about anything else this is what this game has to much just a "grind" that involves nothing but time. Making it a 4million mark reward isnt "harder" at all.


    You may want to blame the queues but that's complete nonsense you had on aether and chaos the possibility till last day to get matches (enough ppl climbed after garo patch cause garo boy farm). Then again I doubt someone who didn't knew anything about DR until few days ago could made it anyways...

    Play matches during preseason and try to get the different coloured mount next season.

    I'd love to see something like that. Register for an exclusive raid mount for each raid tier (like A1S-A4S, A5S-A8S, A9S-A12S so 3 different mounts) and the first 20 raid teams per data center that clears that tier gets the mount.
