/agreed
As much as the new dragon serpents are stunning, there are so many other things they could pop a saddle on and make a fun unique mount from.

My guess will be going off the armory number, so it will include your horde mounts. You'll be fine.

If I create a high lvl horde toon I would up with 248 mounts due to the double up, and I don't even have 1 MOP mount yet lol. WTB 250 mount reward, k thnx bye.

I think the kite is a fabulous mount, and aren't there only 2 kites in the game, one of which comes from being exalted with everyone in Pandaria? I think it's still a relatively exclusive mount for us collectors. It reminds me of the dragonhawk, really- you could get it for 100, or get a different one from Argent dailies. Why is the kite so different and hated? :S It's working the same as the Dragonhawk did.

To be fair, I don't think many people *hate* the mount. Some have technical issues with kites in general, such as clipping, or the way players are mounted on them, but there hasn't been a lot of hate.

The main focus of the negative discussion has been that people feel it's not quite so monumental for a 150 mount achievement. There may only be two available in the game as player mounts, but they're also every taxi in Pandaria. We see and experience them all the time. And I guess for many people, myself included I admit, kites are interesting and pretty but just not all that sexy. Both the albino drake and the dragonhawk mounts were quite remarkable for the times they released. Those were hard benchmarks to reach again, but there are other weird and wonderful mounts that are already functional, but unavailable to players that could probably have met the expectation (such as the pterrordax).

It's probably just another case of our imaginations, and hence expectations, getting ahead of things

Would he carry you in his pincers or would you sit on his head?

I can never see a kunchong flying without thinking of...

Was thinking more like this

Horde ~


Ally ~

Other Shade to the rescue, kinda.

No. It shouldn't. Once the achievement's unlocked, you get the mount on both factions. At least that's how the 100 mount achievement thing worked for me and my Alliance toons were sub-90 mounts... around 78 or 80 or so and they still could use the Blue Dragonhawk.

But what I mean is when I look at my armory page, I have 169 mounts.

When I look at my mount tab in game on my main toon, I only have 138 visible.

So will the achieve go off the armory, which includes both horde and alli mounts, or the in game tab which shows only my alli available mounts?
