Save up to nearly 3000g, don't buy riding skills just yet!

Biggest saving comes from apprentice and journeyman skills, so ideal for alts Smile

I remember the time when you had to level up to 40 until you get your first mount... now it's going to be 20, that is the easiest thing to reach... and the level 40 guys will run around with epic mounts...
Now is the druid's travel form worth anything?

Why don't people ever consider that druid/shaman forms can be used in combat?

This

Actually, after reading this, I realized the obvious advantage. Turning to a fast-running cheetah in combat is clearly useful.

this means that i can save 1000g on the training of the epic flyer skill if im exalted with my main faction or with orgrimmar or what faction?

And don't forget that you get it at lvl 16 after 3.2, 4 levels before you can get a mount.

You get Apprentice-Journeyman (up to 100% ground mount) discounts from your faction capital rep, and Expert-Artisan (flying mounts) from Thrallmar/Warsong Offensive (and whatever Alliance equivalents) rep.
There's also a riding trainer in Dalaran so it's rumored that Kirin Tor rep might also apply (not confirmed).

That said, given the new levels you'd be learning the skills at you'd have to do some serious rep grinding to get the full discounts!

Lol at the Hierloom of Cold Weather Flying. So basically from 60+ you can fly thru the entire content of the game.

No wonder the game is filled with so many nabs who rush to 80 and think that farming endgame is the only point of the game.

/sigh

So the point of a massively open game world is to sit in level 80 instances repeating them over and over with a small group of people to fractionally increase your gear until the next patch comes?

Sounds exciting.

Oh, and apparently they'll move the flying mount vendor from Shadowmoon to Thrallmar to make them easier to buy (of course, otherwise it would not make sense...)

I really liked to do AB and WSG on lvl 29 and 39, but that is for the past Sad

I don't like them that much when there are mounts in them.

I am personally not fan of these new changes.. and i still feel like that druid/shaman running forms are wasted. I can remember when i got lvl 30 on my tauren druid ( ages ago on a PvP server ) i was so happy about going around faster and exploring new parts, where i could reach faster and easier than others Razz

..But maybe it is just me..
