There already is a cool unique mount in Arcterra, I see no issue putting that in the shop

well they need to keep the lights on somehow. this f2p model is extremely generous and vanity items are the best way to make cash given the f2p model. maybe both is the answer, but then im sure people would chime in, but but but i had to grind for weeks to get it and you can just buy it!?! cant please everyone and at the end of day they need to generate revenue to keep the doors open and keep working on content. there are plenty of achvs to grind and mount grinds i would rather not have. but i have more money than time and i would throw my hard earned money at them in a heart beat for this mount. the way it looks it fits with the overall dominion theme really well, similar look to mechari in a lot of ways. @makillda - you ask and you shall receive lol.

there are no raid set costumes in the shop though. and i dont know about you, but i find plenty of things to do in game, granted my play time is more limited due to new baby and other responsibilities but i do enjoy my guaranteed 9 hours of raiding every week. but to your wow point, you pay a sub so their cash shop is an extra shake down of their loyal customer base. must be loyal to have to buy extra things when they pay money for only server access. if subs had better perks i could agree with your sentiment, but they are lack luster and do not attract many ppl. but ppl like you and i will pay to support things we enjoy, but i want them to make money not just from you and i, and this is much more appealing to many players than sub perks. i would actually like to see more things like this in the cash shop. right now i think they need to seriously discuss the cash shop with whoever is running it. it is being mismanaged just like many other things, which is quite frustrating.

Agreed. In most of the MMOs I've played, the end-game isn't just about getting better stats and killing harder bosses, but getting prestigious items that allow you to show off your accomplishments. While that might seem meaningless to a lot of people, it is one of the things that makes raiding appealing to a lot of people. While I understand Carbine's need to make money, I think there are better ways of doing it than watering down something a lot of players worked hard to obtain. And I say this as someone who has yet to step foot in GA. Part of what has me looking forward to getting there is getting that awesome looking gear.

IKR? I Wildstar, if you don't pay a subscription, you can't even buy that monkey costume! So greed! They should be less greedy, like WoW, and lock you out of your characters if your sub lapses, right? RITE? er, maybe not.
