I know there has been allot of debate over the new Celestial Steed. And I was just curious how the tip-top raiding guilds felt about it.

I myself don't see a problem with it at all. And would assume a few people from Paragon will more then likely end up buying it. After all, it's just a mount, and it is very cool looking.

Enough of that, so anyway, what do you guys at Paragon think of it?

It's not 310% unless you already have a 310% mount, so I don't really care at least.

The mount is something I really want _bad_ but I'll have to see if I'll end up buying it or not. It's nice to be able to get a cool mount without having to pray to the RNG gods (219 runs in Stratholme for Baron's mount, hai).

On the other hand I understand people getting worried about Blizzard actually selling in-game stuff. Mounts is again one step closer to them selling gear.

I haven't really made up my mind yet on this (especially as I'd really like to get the mount) but it feels a bit fishy. That's just my opinion tho.

They wont, they will not come to the point where they will sell ''anything'' that can increase your performance over the others, where ever it is Pvp or Pve.
They have mentioned already that they will not sell anything that can impact in your performance

First it was the Pet store, and now Mount, both which are cosmetic.

If they were to sell more items, i think Fishing Pole is the next stepp and Tabards,

I treated me to the mount this morning as an after birthday present. And I am a hippocrit somehow because I dislike that Blizzard sells something like that for real money while at the same time I knew I had to have it.

The only thing that sucks is that... everyone has it now so if someone wants a very rare mount, this is the wrong one to get.

Remember that they also said that you won't be able to change race/faction. Myself I don't believe they'll ever start selling gear or stuff like that but you can't ignore they are going to that direction.

Hai, I is new. Just thought id add a comment to this. When i saw the preview of the mount on MMO-Champ and people we speculating it would be from Algalon I was like /drool, but when I found it was on the blizz-store i was like /eh ( I still bought it :3)

and as for them milking money. In the long run the money goes back into the game. People think that Blizzcon is a money making tactic but blizzard says they run Blizzcon at a loss its just something they do for the community.

Ps. Synti your my idol <3 :D
