Subject: Intended? -Blue, please
   I noticed today that PVP mounts still require you to have the horse riding skill. This means you still need revered reputation to actually get a mount from a race different from your own, which doesnt seem right. Is this intended or just something overlooked?

   This is intended. There are mounts for all races in the PvP reward system, as illustrated here:

So you can indeed get the "full benefit" of your rank by purchasing the mount you can ride.

Q u o t e:
Can you purchase and ride the other race's mounts?


If you have the appropriate riding skill, you can ride them, but it requires learning said skill from the trainer.

Q u o t e:
You can still get your own race's mount, but not a different races mount in your own faction, which is what the website seems to advertise on it. My main is an undead mage, and I cant stand the epic because it gives off a huge glow - which in pvp, is a huge target me sign.

Cost: 90 Gold
Races: Orc, Undead, Troll
Level Requirements: Level 40
PvP Requirements: Lieutenant General

Doesnt say anything about needing revered reputation.


While the website does not state as such, the in-game items all say "Requires X Riding" where X is the type of mount.

Q u o t e:
Actually, i went into the officer's place and...the mount vendor doesnt sell Epic War Chickens:) (gnomes). Where are the gnomes mounts?


It may not have been listed for you because you cannot ride them regardless. ;)
