Suggestion: Primal Mounts as an Achievement Award

[ThinkPInk]

Firstly, this isn't a complaint thread just an alternative way of acquiring the primal mounts. After farming Shiva EX this week with some friends and only seeing one mount drop in total I came up with the idea of mounts being awarded after x amount of wins. In this way more experienced players would be encouraged to run older content and help newer players learn/get their clears for some of the older primal fights.

If this were to be implemented I have no doubt that it would require a time investment but I think that would be a better option than simply relying on RNG.

If that is the case, then everyone would have the mount and it wouldn't be much of achievement having it...

Not like anybody would care besides the maniacs who grinded like hell for them...and the lucky rollers who got carried and snatched the mount.

We're good though. They raised the drop rate in 2.5 so not as much worry now.

I guess I'm one of the few that wants the mounts because I think they look great. Not so much because they're rare. Hopefully on my next farm I'll have a bit more luck

The drop rate for the Shiva horse is probably 1% or less. I say that because I have every drop from Shiva (all weapons and shield upgraded to 115) and 49 diamond dusts left over and have not seen the horse drop even once. I wasn't farming for the horse though (or else I'd be horribly disappointed), just trying to get those last few weapons to drop.
