Training Master Riding (310%)

[Svpernova09]

If you go train Master Riding (310%) Make sure you do NOT train in Dalaran. Train in Warsong Hold or Valiance Keep so you can get a discount, if you're exalted, it's 4k gold instead of the 5k.

310% speed is the sexy!
I'm gonna be super cheap though if I come back and just level up my 70 Shamans with 310% speed already. Paladins seem like they took a beating with all the complaints everyone got.

Now I heard the VPD ever after this patch will be 280 rather than 310. I got my VPDs this Brewfest.....sitting in my banks because I did not have the appropriate riding skill.....did I just lose 5k x5 because I didn't upgrade prior to patch and now have to spend an additional 5k x 5 for the 310 boost in addition? I can't check now

What's the use of learning it now, when you don't have 310% mount?
My mounts still show 280% speed (dont have any 310% mounts)

*sigh*

Nvm, tooltip changed after a few mounts and dismounts.... now it's 310%

This looks to be the case, yes.

Basically it works like this - all mounts now are the same speed. They go as fast as your mount skill lets you go. If you have 150% then all flying mounts will go 150%. same with 280% and 310%.

If you already had a 310% mount learned before 4.01 then you automatically get the 310% "Master" mount skill.

Apart from that you have to buy the 310% skill now.

what I like the most is that now ALL my flying mounts are 310% and all landmounts are 100%. And I do find the horses you get at level 20 prettier than the ones you can buy later. So great you can use them now and not feel like a turtle.

Hmm I didn't know that about the lvl 20 mounts. Could ride some lvl 20 elephants but damn they look a bit sickly =)

mounts speed is not tied to the mount anymore. its tied to your skill. Like the DK flying mount that speed up as they mount skill up.

Damn, that means I need to drop 45,000gold (5k then 4k more right?) for my team of 5. Ouch.
