In what appears to be an attempt to put an end to
scams capitalizing on the vanity mounts found in Upper Deck's popular
World of Warcraft trading card game, the latest
Patch 3.2 PTR build seems to have removed the Bind-on-Pickup restriction on the loot mounts. Originally
unearthed by Boubouille on MMO Champion, the removal seems to be intended, and includes new methods for obtaining the loot items from
Landro Longshot in Booty Bay (with the exception of the
Riding Turtle, which reportedly remains BoP).
This means it should be easier to obtain these special mounts if players are indeed selling them for copious amounts of gold - conceivably setting record amounts at the auction house. This effectively kills the scamming method of supposedly selling desireable items like the
Spectral Tiger mount. On the other hand, someone with real world cash who gets one of those mounts off eBay can theoretically trade it in game for some whopper gold. That's
kind of like they're
selling gold in some roundabout way. Either way, score one for Blizzard. It looks like it might be time to start earning a bit of money... think anyone will sell the tiger for 500 Gold? No? Drat.
