Are you trying to imply you wouldn’t rather have a mythic battle pet tabard for your Pokémon instead of a weapon drop?

The only time that would ever be interesting is if somehow pets came into play during dungeons/raids as a secondary stat, such as Star Trek Online where your bridge crew had gear and bolstered your ship. Wouldn't be against adding more gear slots. Matter of fact, the Azerite gear is a lot like bridge crew in that they come with secondary abilities, except those were extra actions, not passives (mostly).
As long as I don't have to dick around with the snail pace Pokémon mini game cuck show...

Only pre-110. 110 gold quests were over 1k from the start. They never buffed the amount of gold on those quests.
Even better a team needs to be doing pet battles while the raid is killing the boss to turn off abilities on the boss.
So kind of like the fight on the spine of Deathwing where you had to break open plates and all of that but instead there is a pet that needs to be defeated in order to turn off a fire breath in time or the damage will kill the tank.

Update: This appears to be working as of hotfixes done today in the afternoon, and it seems to be targeting multiple enemies for that matter.

I wondered how there were the Champions of Azeroth Revered pets on the AH... Some of them cost 200 Polished Pet Charms as well, which were impossible to get before BFA, and even with BFA you have to get really lucky to even manage 100 in a day. It's more like you get 2 WQ max that give about 15 Polished Pet Charms each per day.
So the exploit must have worked for multiple types of WQ's? Because these people with the pets clearly did something to get so many Polished Pet Charms. I found a server where there were TONS of really expensive Revered faction pets for really cheap. So I redeemed a couple WoW tokens on my main realm, and then used that balance to buy a few tokens on the realm I found and sold those Tokens for gold and then bought the pets there. Caged them and sold them on my main server and repeated the process, profiting a Token or two each cycle lol. (Btw fuck Blizzard for making you redeem all your WoW tokens before you buy one to sell for gold..)
200 Polished Pet Charms + Revered with 7th Legion or Champions of Azeroth as of a week ago? Yeah, I think not. So this exploit was being used for a long time, probably since launch. Doing WQ's every single day + lots of missions should barely put you into Revered territory of Champions, and yet I was buying Revered Champions pets like a week ago.

Plenty of people are legit hitting exalted in the past two days. I don't know the math on the pet charms though.
EDIT: I am going to leave my mistake up, I thought you said Honorbound / 7th Legion.

Yeah I can see Exalted with 7th Legion, but definitely not with Champions. People are just now hitting Revered with Champions in the past 2 days and I've been buying the 2 Champions of Azeroth Revered pets that cost 100/200 Polished Pet Charms for over a week. I just didn't make the connection because I haven't really dived into WQ's/faction yet. I knew the pets were from somewhere, but only realized where from today.
Some people are claiming 6 month suspensions. I hope it's true lol. Although Blizzard should also learn that if people exploit this much and this hard and hide a bug in beta, there must be something wrong with their system, but they won't, since rep grinds have been in for so damn long now. Are the last few voldun instant respawn camps still up? I ran by one a couple nights ago and thought they'd all been removed, but definitely ran by one 2-3 days ago. I wish there were a few instant respawn camps that stayed in game though, they can be fun for a while, but I get why they cause problems.

What is the plan for the FoH forum guild this expansion? My Alliance crew decided to go casual going forward, and to be honest that works for me with my general schedule. Still, I start an expansion and the idea of not trying some Mythic raids at the beginning really gets to me.
If you guys are going to do some "casual mythic" for sure I'd think about transferring over one of my tunes. Anyway, let me know.
Cheers.

"Hardcore" casual heroic. Apparently mythic is butthurt worthy. If you're try hard, not the guild to join.

The people who wanted to mythic raid found mythic guilds elsewhere. It stands to be seen how FoH raiding will go with a number of the "leader" types having gone elsewhere.
Think less people overall are interested this go too, maybe...

Been sick as all fuck all day, but got on and powered through the last of my rep and now I can't decide if warrior or shaman. I like fury.. but I only like fury, the other 2 specs can fuck themselves.
Also kind of weird they got rid of paragon rep for bags. I now have near no reason to do these wqs for honorbound aside from like ap rewards
