In the WoW forums: mounts trainable at 20 (updated)
June 11, 4:11 AM
To think, we could have had you kodos 20 levels sooner
Nothing like good old forum news to keep you occupied late, late at night. Zarhym of blueness in the World of Warcraft forums posted a thread called, "Upcoming Mount Changes."
Basically you'll now be getting your first mount at 20, epic at 40. Good news for those that love alts and newcomers that now "have it easy." Here's the post in its entirty but visit the forums and put your two cents in on the mount changes.
In the next major content patch, we intend to adjust mount requirements to further improve the leveling experience in World of Warcraft. In addition, cast times for summoning all mounts will be reduced to 1.5 seconds, down from 3 seconds. The following is a breakdown of the upcoming cost and level requirement changes we are making for each riding skill.
- Apprentice Riding (Skill 75)
-60% land mount speed
-Requires level 20
-Cost: 4 gold
-Mount cost: 1 gold
-Mail will be sent to players at level 20 guiding them to the riding trainer
- Journeyman Riding (Skill 150)
-100% land mount speed
-Requires level 40
-Cost: 50 gold
-Mount cost: 10 gold
-Mail will be sent to players at level 40 guiding them back to the riding trainer

-Requires level 60
-Cost: 600 gold (faction discounts now apply: Honor Hold [Alliance]; Thrallmar [Horde])
-Mount Cost: 50 gold
