wow Brutosaur Mount Costs 5 Mio and Has an Auctioneer

[Stan 5,020]

Reins of the Mighty Caravan Brutosaur is unlike any mounts you've seen yet. It costs 5,000,000 Gold and has an Auctioneer.

Our preview of Beta Build 26624 covers new Azerite traits, Class Changes, Kul Tiran Druid Aquatic Forms & Flying in Battle for Azeroth.

Similar to the Reins of the Grand Expedition Yak in Mists or Reins of the Traveler's Tundra Mammoth in Wrath, Reins of the Mighty Caravan Brutosaur is a new mount with vendors coming in Battle for Azeroth. It even comes with an Auctioneer, but if you want to get it, prepare to pay up to 5,000,000 Gold for it! The mount can be purchased from Talutu (Zuldazar) or Tricky Nick (Tirargarde Sound).

For people who need an auctioneer at all time 5m isn't a problem. sadly i'm not one of them :(

[Lawrenz 105]

at least this one has a use, compared to a 2mil spider :D

[Dejo93 984]

This one is a bit much if you ask me. Even with the new expansion release, I doubt that there would be people with that much money.

[Misuteri 26]

Yes, people do have that kind of money.

I could buy one *now* and I personally know of three other people who could as well. Gold isn't really hard to come by these days.

I am still pissed off about the spider. Nice mount, waaaay too overcosted.

And honestly. I think this one is too. 5 mil, just for an auctioneer addition? So not worth it.

[Laragon 269]

Same as the original tundra mammoth in Wrath that started the "luxury mount" idea for Blizzard. It's a mount for the .001% of gold earners (in that expansion). 5 million is still just a terrifying amount of gold, even when you consider expansion inflation. I know people play the game within the game of gold earning, but damn.

Honestly, i had that exact thought about EACH of those Mounts. I am someone who plays solely for myself, and for my guild consisting of family and friends. So everything earned with materials and gold turns into consumable and other stuff just for us, so i never bothered about trading and/or earning gold. And those mounts were always "way to expensive" for me.

I bought the travelers mount just when i was in pandaria. I bought the yak just right this week (and the 125k got a hefty chunk out of my gold xD). And i guess i will buy this auctioneer mount just in the middle of the second-next addon. so everything like it always was.

The time necessary to dig up 5M gold is far, far more time than the time I'll burn by just mailing my auction crap to the stray toon I have parked at the AH already and having him sell everything.

Looks really cool though.  However, much like the Reins of the Thundering Onyx Cloud Serpent that I was really jazzed to get, the cumbersome size of the mount got in the way and I went back to the smallest mount available.  Most of the larger/cooler ground mounts end up this way for me too.

Look on the bright side; Blizzard will run out of functionally unique NPC's eventually! _{(in before 20 mounts that all have a barber, barber can only apply the color to your hair corresponding to the mount's color)}

Barber... stable master (battle pets and hunters rejoice)... mail box... crafting stations... bankers... follower missions HQ...

At some point we'll have our own Vindicar that follows us around, for the low price of 100 billion gold. (or X amount of platinum if they finally do a currency squish)

Little known archaeological fact the Brutosaurus was actually an Apatosaurus head on top of a rare Elekk skeleton.  

[SMOrcMan 76]

Honestly I don't use the AH that that much, but it's still fucking depressing that they release a mount with such utility that I know I'll never get because Blizzard feels the need to punish me further for giving free carries to random people rather than farming gold.

 

I pay blizz for the expansion and every month, isn't that enough? :(

Yeah, i feel you. I would like to use passenger Mounts, where others hop on, more often.  Sometimes i am imagining "why not both?"

The next mount might be utility in form of a repair-trader AND 4 passenger seats. So a whole Dungeon group can hop on.
Could be a ground only mount, something like a Goblin-tech-Landrover with a big cargo area. That would be awesome.

[multiboxing 71]

5 mil is Ri-god-damn-diculous!  I finally bit the bullet and bought the spider mount last month thinking that would have to be the most expensive mount ever, wrong! 5 mill is the most ive ever had at one time and will be awhile b4 I see 5 mill again!

The price of gold-sinks is always linked to the income possible in that certain expansion, though. With proper setup and leveling of characters, you can have 1.5 Million (comfortably) coming in each month from just order halls when you have 10+ characters. You have to farm Resources, sure, but you can just do a couple on Argus each day that reward 1K+ per WQ.

EDIT: Garrisons had a similar feature with mass amounts of gold coming in, hence why spider cost so much.

What Blainie said. Wonder how much gold we'll be able to pull in from this kind of semi-passive activity in BFA, that should put this mount's price in perspective.

I haven't seen any garrison/order halls yet, so I'm waiting excitedly.

That'd be neat. I think they need to halt the production of city-only utility mounts. Because anti-social garrisons will start to make a comeback. 

I'm an engineer so I basically have wormholes everywhere, personal repairs with mount/jeeves/reaves, with this I'd have AH, I already have yak transmog. There is already little reason to bother with the city.

I'm sitting at over 8 million gold currently.

How? What's the best way to farm gold? Also, should I switch to a gathering profession (like herbalism) at the start of the expansion? I'm genuinely curious and any advice is welcome :)
