Around Azeroth: Straight to hell

Did you think we had forgiven?
Behold, now, the terrible vengeance of the Engineers!
Because you'll do anything to get that bike, and we'll be putting them in AH for amounts of gold you've never dreamt of. We'll be charging the total cost of an epic flyer just for making one with your own mats.
Now, all can see this is the hour of the Engineers!
(Thanks to Rhagus of <Light Defenders> on Anachronos-EU for both the screenshot and the epic caption!)
Do you have any unusual World of Warcraft images that are just collecting dust in your screenshots folder? We'd love to see it on Around Azeroth! Sharing your screenshot is as simple as e-mailing aroundazeroth@wow.com with a copy of your shot and a brief explanation of the scene. You could be featured here next!
Remember to include your player name, server and/or guild if you want it mentioned. Please include the word "Azeroth" in your post so it does not get swept into the spam bin. We strongly prefer full screen shots without the UI showing -- use alt-Z to remove it. Please, no more battleground scoreboards or pictures of the Ninja Turtles in Dalaran.

If you charge me 5000g to use my own mats, i'll put you on ignore and have you blacklisted.
Enjoy.

5000g is good because it costs like 12500g for vendor bought mats..
Dragoest Dec 10th 2008 1:00PM
5k is very fair. the time and cost to get and even learn the pains is a pain in it's self and to selloff a 20k bike ( with good reasonble Ah prices) and then get tip 50g for all that.. I think not... the price might go down maybe as son and next year but i would cound on it going any lower then 3k or maybe 2k... unless you have a good buddy to make it foryou.. and even then.. you will have to own a huge favor...
you want that bike? drag me the need mats and 5k cover... thank you have a nice day..

I specifically said "my own mats". Which means my engineering mats, my vendor-bought mats. Which means my 12,000g or whatever ALREADY SPENT. If someone tries to charge 5k on top of that, for getting exalted with an EASY, EASY reputation, THAT'S when I get angry.
If I could pay 5000g for a chopper right now on the ENGINEER's mats, obviously I'd jump on that, but that's not happening.

I specifically said "My Own Mats". Sorry, but 5kG is NOT a fair tip for getting possibly the easiest exalted rep this side of SSO. All you have to do is run instances with your guild tabard on. Some heroic runs, for which you're getting gear/badges/shards. Hell, I do it for free.

Fine, take 5 minutes to post my response.
Comment system needs an overhaul.

Looks like a Meat Loaf album cover.

Don't worry, there is no way you can use your own mats. Only the engineer can buy the most expensive parts and those are 12.5k gold.
MechChef Dec 10th 2008 12:19PM
By the time I have the rep and skill to build it, I should have the gold to buy the 12500G in parts. It's going to hurt me so much to make it, but I'm already in so deep.

Worst. Mount. Ever.
Seriously, that thing is $*(#@! annoying. It has no place in WoW. It's even worse than the flying machines.
Gareth Dec 11th 2008 7:27AM
Yep, although I hear a rumour we'll need to them on the raid against arthas since he has a car :P
Seriously, someone at Blizzard had a sense of imagination bypass when they decided to put them in the game.

who uses these besides engineers themselves not dieing while on it if u fall from a great height is good and all but im a pala so u can bite me ill just keep my gold and use my bubble.
and dont say that people get them because they are cool, those things are ugly as sin
zappo Dec 10th 2008 10:30AM
I don't have a problem with the bikes themselves, I just wish you could mute the stupid things.

If only my Forsaken Warlock could have a Flaming Skull. :)
