New Rank of Riding (310%)!

Removed.

I love this change. Having 4 310% mounts can sometimes be a curse. I like riding my Twilight or Black Drake on occasion, but because they are 280%, i usually dont use them much aside from idling in Dalaran like a tool.

[Siliverin]

imo i owuld pay it, but i hope they do lower it.. also i need to get org rep up to exaulted even though im an orc lol, so when it does come it wont be 5000g

[Adam-Savage]

I wonder how noticeable the 30% speed increase would be. When I'm on my BM spec I can't tell the difference from 280% - 290%. I can tell when I'm on my ground mount so I'm assuming one might notice the flying speed a tad faster.

Luckily for me I am Exhaulted with every faction currently on my Tauren Hunter. I would myself spend it, but I do pray they change the price a wee bit. But it's blizzard, so anything for a price is good. I won't rush to actually get it, seeing as I have Epic Flight already. But it would be nice to cruise around a wee bit faster.

I'm exalted already with krin tor so if I was not getting my 310% anyway I would get it from hira snowdawn in Dalaran.

You'd think so, but it's a massive difference. Not so much in how it feels, but I keep overshooting things when I'm on Sara. You just get around a LOT faster.

Yay just 5k! I was worried (and still worried it might change) that they would make it cost a whole lot more gold then that. You bet I'll snag the training the moment I log in after Cata install. lol Now hopefully it will stay the same until release. /crossfingers

This is a silly question but which mounts are 310 already?

[Unggoy]

Plagued, Black, Rusted, Ironbound, and Violet Protos. All Arena Season Mounts. Ashes of Alar, Onyxia Mount, and the ICC Frostwyrms. Did i miss any?

[Kaellan]

thank you!

Mimiron's Head, Invincible, and any mount that scales with riding level if the user already has a 310% mount (like if you have both Celestial Steed and Violet Proto drake, the Steed will match the proto's 310% speed. If all of your flyers are 280% or under, the Steed will be the same speed as your highest training usable in that location.)

Except it sometimes bugs out for me if I mount up on it in an area where I can fly (so it registers as a 310% mount) and then choose to ride on the ground - next thing I know, I'm thundering down the path at an awe-inspiring 60%. *sigh*

These two as well will scale up. Headless Horseman's Mount and of course my favorite the X-53 Touring Rocket.

I've been a lazy player and honestly I'm not exalted with everyone I need to be. I really hope that the 5k g price tag gets lowered. I've never had anywhere near that much gold. So for players like me that artisan riding skill is pretty much unobtainable.

krin tor is easy though. You just wear the tabard and you get rep in heroics.

[Victorelle]

mmmmmmmmmmm... 310 mounts

[bluddy]

i'll probably be the only one not to like it. dodges rotten tomatoes

Those mounts were suposed to be special now they'll be just mounts

[Makoes]

I have to say that the prices for flying mounts is alot! at lv 60, you pay 225g, and lv 70 5000g, then 1000g for coldwinter flying...Now another 5000g...I am sorry, but for those of us that are casual players, or have more them one alt, its really bad...hell, my two other lv 80's only have the basic 225g flying training...Most of my gold goes towards...ummm GEAR, Repairs, GEMS, ammo...flasks potions, mats...so, yeah, I really dont like how movement speed costs so much, I mean really, it should be much cheaper...like 225g, 425g 625g 825g...make it scale better...really, we have much better things to spend our hard earned gold on then movement speed. And while we're at it, Have all mounts scale accordingly...if I get faster flying ALL my mounts should move faster...and fix ground mount speeds, really, if a flying mount can go 310% A ground mount should atleast go 200%
All mounts need to be scaled to riders training, like the headless horsemans mount, the touring rocket and the celestial steed, wake up blizz, you have the technology, do it!

The problem lies in the fact there are daily quests. But dailies get tedius and boring for me and take a fair amount of time to acomplish on one toon, let alone the 5 80's I have.

In theory 20 dailies a day nets 200 gold. Times 10 days = 2000k gold.

The problem is the quests get repetative, boring or are to frustrating and or out of the way or worse can't easily be soloed by yourself.
