I have to believe that 5,000 gold will be lowered.  The other riding skills were lowered, xp to level was lowered…quest xp was bumped.

I still don’t have an epic mount because as primarily a holy priest I travel by raid summon and do few if any outdoor quests anymore.  Way back when I became exalted with skettis and ogri’la and need to do the same with SSO, but you can’t fly on the isle and you won’t be able to fly in WoTLK at least in teh beginning.

I’ve put it on the back burner and am spending $ on things like epic gems and 5 night a week raiding.

I read somewhere that the reason it isn’t being increased was simply because the game mechanic wouldn’t work correctly with faster mounts.  I’m not sure if thats true or not but I do recall reading it somewhere in a blue post with details about how some players see mobs “fall from the sky” which is what the spawn process looks like and we shouldn’t ever even see that.

It is very well possible that this is true. Reason behind it can vary from the fact that the game needs a bit of time to be able to preload content to events that are triggered by an internal timer or synchronization with the server.

i’d say its the end of his shift he’s tired and just wants to ge tthe hell outa work and go home , though lowering the cost of epic mounts would be good i cant see them doing it, to many people would kick up a stink at having payed the 5000 now someone can get it for 4-3-2-1 k that it isnt fair on them and more n more QQ it wouldnt be worth it for blizz

I read that post too but I don’t think the epic flying mount price should be decreased because of the possible inflation. If they lower the epic flying mount price, they must have something new and expensive for us to spend on.

I have 2 epic flying mounts on my 2 70s and I have enough gold to buy the third one for my mage - lvl 60 atm. I don’t play AH games and I seldom sell my herb/ore/leather/enchant shards… I used to grind primals, fish and cook but now I just do daily quests (up to 10 quests or I will kill myself).

It is not like you can make 5000g in one day (well, ppl play AH might be able to) and this is what blizzard’s intent to keep you staying in the game - grinding and questing.

I really don’t understand why people complaining about the price of epic flying mount.  :ponder:
