Hey. So This Even is almost over and we all have realized that the Beholder Tank is not really dropping at a rate where you can actually farm it and get it unless you are lottery-winner-lucky. The price of the Beholder Tank mount is now 13.4m AD in AH and my question is simple:

Will this mount be available in Zen store or lockbox or anywhere else after the event is over? I dont want to spend 13.4m AD on a mount only to find out in a few days that it will be available at a cost that is more then 50% less in the zen store.

I did my fair share of farming, like 250 times or more the last three weeks. Thats a lot of time spent only ending up with NOTHING since Artificers workshop does not drop anything of value. So can you please give us a honest and real answer now?

    no one really knows but this mount is still listed as Zen-Store mount,
    we have to wait there's nothing else.

    13.4m AD is comparable to the price of other legendary mounts in the AH. In fact right now it's cheaper than most of them.

    And Cryptic is pretty good at mistakenly tagging things and then taking forever to fixing it.

    That's it's selling for the equivalent price to other legendary mounts is completely irrelevant. The question is a valid one: Will we see this (or another) legendary mount in the Zen store?

    BTW - don't even start with how doing so will ruin the legendary mount market and make them less valuable. Sorry, but I just can't muster any sympathy for the 18 individuals (give or take) that will take a hit vs the thousands (probably tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands) of players that will see a much more affordable and attainable path to a legendary mount.

    OCCUPY ZEN STREET! :)

    my question is will we see it dropping in winter festivle packs? Other event mounts drop form them including the aparatus of gond.

    This Event is a lockbox in playable form.

    I tried to calculate the drop rate, based on the number of drops I saw while I was playing, the number of instances and the average playing time.

    The numbers came out around 1-in-5000.
    Hoping for improvements...

    sounds about right. tenser disk was 1/6000. doubt they changed drop ratio much.

    How many do you think actually dropped during the event?

    Based on how often I see the notifications pop up, I'd say around 6 per day.

    I'm a little surprised I've still not seen anyone actually using one.
