World of Warcraft: A dedicated World of Warcraft player has finally obtained a rare mount after over 2,000 attempts. The player, who goes by the name “Akshun”, has been trying to get the Heavenly Onyx Cloud Serpent mount from the Sha of Anger world boss in Pandaria for several years.
The mount has a drop rate of just 0.05%, meaning that Akshun had a 1 in 2,000 chance of getting it to drop each time he defeated the boss.
Akshun shared his good fortune on social media, where he was congratulated by fellow players. Many people expressed their disbelief that he had been able to get the mount to drop after so many attempts. However, Akshun said that he was not giving up hope, and he continued to farm the Sha of Anger every week.
Finally, after 2,000 attempts, Akshun’s persistence paid off. He defeated the Sha of Anger and the Heavenly Onyx Cloud Serpent mount finally dropped. Akshun was overjoyed and said that he was “over the moon” to finally have the mount.
This is not the first time that a World of Warcraft player has had to go through an incredible amount of effort to get a rare drop. In 2019, a player named “Astral” spent over 100,000 gold on bonus rolls in an attempt to get the Corrupted Ashbringer sword. He finally got the sword after 10,000 bonus rolls.
