Recruit-a-Friend – X-53 Touring Rocket Retiring Soon

Heads up!  The current Recruit-A-Friend reward mount, the experimental X-53 Touring Rocket, will soon be cycled out of the RAF program.  If you’ve always wanted a Touring Rocket, but haven’t snagged one yet, this is your last chance to get one by bringing a friend to World of Warcraft. 

While we don’t have an official launch date to reveal for the new Recruit-A-Friend mount, we wanted to give you an early heads up that the changeover will be happening “soon” (TM).  You have a few weeks to claim the X-53 Touring Rocket before it goes away.

I would help anyone to get thier rocket... You pay for the Game and the 2 months and I'll make sure you get your rocket. I don't have 50.00 to help everyone.

This whole system is really unfair to people who don't have any friends. I realize that's a minority, but I literally have NO chance of ever recruiting anyone. Most people I know can't even use a computer, let alone play a game on it.

@Covenant: The good news is.. it's just a rocket mount and not the end of the world. There are still a lot of in game mounts to purchase and enjoy. It's not really unfair. It's just a perk.

I am still new to this but would really love to have that rocket. I can help out any way I can on what I know. If you like to be recruited and want to play, then please by all means let me know, however, you do need to pay for game time prior to getting a hold of me. plaikies@yahoo.com

Hello, I'm looking for someone to recruit and level up several toons with (preferably active player). I play on Frostmourne, I have plenty of gold and I am the GM of a level 25 guild. I am a great player and level very quick so getting a couple toons to 80 will be no problem for us. If you want to start playing or willing to make a new account to power level some characters to 80 then let me know. Email me at jordanp_95@hotmail.com and we can discuss. I will not be able to pay for the games or game time but will help a great deal throughout the game with certain things.

Can anyone confirm that when the X-53 is retired, any unclaimed RAF mounts will be claimable as the New mount, similar what happened to unclaimed Zhevras being claimable as X-53's last time around?

I have a rocket, but also two unclaimed mounts from past referrals. Will I lose these if I wait until the new RAF mount is released?

Make sure if you are referring a friend to have them pay in advance for the game time. Otherwise, although you referred them in time for the Rocket, if they pay monthly, you will get whatever reward is applicable when they actually pay. Speaking from experience here. Have 2 rockets, no Zhevra. :(

@Sokolok: it is in the drop down menus on your account. I don't have it memorized but if you check the FAQ it explains it well.

I'm just happy they're finally changing the reward, the rocket really isn't one of my fave things, it just doesn't seem to fit with the rest of the world. Yea and this from a Draenai! :)

Would love to get this for myself,but I know of no one in RL that wants to play - my partner thinks I am crazy paying for the games and then the ongoing payments that keep me playing. That said I am not that stupid (yes I think your damn silly) if you give details and what not to strangers just for this mount.
