Appearance issues:
- the Kor'kron War Wolf has changed appearance on the Beta. On live it wears the reddish armour (see the link), but on the Beta it wears the black. The one complication with this is that in the mount journal it has always been displayed with black armour. So has its appearance on live been unintended (and it's fixed in the Beta)? Or are both the mount journal and the Beta showing the wrong appearance?
- the Trained Snarler is showing up in the journal as the black ("shadow") wolf skin, but it seems almost certain this is a bug and it it is intended to be the brown (' wolfdraenormountbrown' ), which is how we're depicting it on WCM. Why do we suspect that? Well, (i) the intermediate stages (Snarler-In-Training and Young Snarler) are both brown, though perhaps they decide to celebrate graduating as a mount by getting a dye-job, (ii) the icon is the brown wolf one, and (iii) the black non-armoured wolf mount is already used for the Garn Nighthowl. So if it stays as it is it's going to be a duplicate. - FIXED!
- it's also possible, though this is pure speculation, that the Ironside Warwolf is using the wrong appearance and is intended to have the unused "Iron Horde Wolf" look. Not only because of the "Ironside" bit in its name but also the fact that the Alliance equivalent reward is the Armored Irontusk, which has the cool Iron Horde elekk look. It doesn't seem so likely they'd make the Alliance mount so unique, yet the Horde equivalent another colour of a generic WoD mount.
- trivial naming nit: the Trained Silverpelt is purple. Maybe it originally had the silver appearance and they forgot to rename it when it changed.
- pedantic mount quote nit: Drake of the North Wind is being given the flavour text, "They sicken of the calm who know the storm." Assuming they intended to quote Dorothy Parker, the correct quote is "They sicken of the calm, who knew the storm." It makes a little more sense with the correct grammar
