My new goal: Mountain O' Mounts!

[Kalros]

First update! Got the 25 Mount Achievement this morning (just bought all the exodar mounts and the outlands griffons).

In addition to doing the Argent dailys every day (for the rest of my life!), my first priorities are going to be things that might change with Cataclysm:

-Ahn-Qiraj Bugs. They may not change the zone, but I'll start here anyway. 4 fairly easy mounts.
-Baron mount from Stratholme. The devs said that they would be changing Strat and Scholo, so I better do this now in case the loot changes
-PvP Mounts: Though I'm sure these wont be taken out, they are introducing the new currency systems which will have weekly caps, and they will be introducing Warsong Gultch 2, which I want no part of, so might as well get them now.

My absolute last priorities will be the Outlands reps. Particularly Netherwing and Kurenai. Those are gonna be brutal.

Thanks for all the words of encouragement, and I'll be dropping regular updates on my progress!

Netherwing is pretty easy and fast. Kurenai/Maghar isn't too bad either. Don't forget Shattari Skyguards (more dailies in BEM after you've opened the Ogrila ones). I've got about 90 mounts on each of my main team toons(bout 60 learned, bout 30 to buy). Been just too lazy to do any tournament dailies the last couple of months, so still quite a bit away from mountain o' mounts.

My original toon that I played a ton back in the day was a gnome fury warrior (back when fury warriors were laughed at and I had to fight tooth and nail for 1h drops in MC and BWL... though I still was top 3 in DPS).

Anyhoo, my gnome was the first on the server to get a tiger. I don't know how much time I spent grinding cloth, and turning in cloth, but it was a looong time. I still have that mount. I never traded it in for the new sabers, though I doubt anyone recognizes that I'm a gnome on a first generation epic mount that could have only been received by getting exalted with the elves, which was only possible with an ungodly amount of cloth turn-ins.

Good luck on your goal!!!

Can't have been that early if cloth turnins were already out.
I saw a video of a gnome that got the darnassus tiger when the only way was ungodly amounts of ungoro soil for the herb thing.

Netherwing is dailies and random eggs (eggs will not be party wide though, since you pick up one at a time) so you should get those started.
Kurenai is just kills/turnins, easily done in a couple days if you spend a lot of time on it.
Shatt Skyguard is also kills, and supplemented by dailies, so that can be quite easy too.
