Account Wide Mounts are a go in Beta MoP.

A few questions for people in the beta:
How does this work with accounts (edit: err, characters, not accounts. Slipped a mental gear there.) of the opposite faction? If Qazzi has the green proto drake from the Oracles, for instance, would an Alliance character also have that? I'm assuming that typical cross faction mounts like the Orgrimmar wolves would translate as per the faction change guidelines. Does this span multiple WoW accounts on the same Battle.net account? I have my main account, and a second account with some extra characters. Same Battle.net account, though, and I can send heirlooms to all -- but do the mounts work for this too? Thanks for any info from anyone able to test this. |

Pretty much exactly what Qazzi just said.

I'd like it if it would help me get the purple protodrake done. I wonder if it will allow partials to be cross account? Like.. I have all the holiday acheivements done on my raiding priest *except* children's week. Meanwhile a pvp toon has the children's week done, but none of the other ones. Would it then be combined to get me the full acheivement, or do I have to do the entire meta on one toon?

Anyone know if the dragon/vial mount is part of this, or if I still have to buy 9 more for my alts?
|
Before all the mounts got wiped in their entirety on the beta - Every single mount was bound to every character on the same faction. Obviously a bit of a beta derp there and the entire thing went down not too long after - but it seems like it's a big yes. |

I'm so excited over this that I am starting to seriously consider sending myself an RAF if I can't find anyone who wants one before the rocket mount goes for good.

I'm going to have hippogryphs. EVERYWHERE.

Giant Squids,
I'l have rocket and zebra : D I love my zebra unicorn mount so much. Still won't be buying MoP tho : ( World Peace and Puppies, --Eph |

Giant Squids,I missed out on the zebra due to being fresh and new to the game and not knowing anyone that didn't already play that didn't want to. D=I'm so excited over this that I am starting to seriously consider sending myself an RAF if I can't find anyone who wants one before the rocket mount goes for good. But the boyfriend has said that if I can't find anyone else, he'll let me send him one and he'll buy the upgrade from the trial and two months time and he doesn't even like WoW. HURRAY. |

Giant Squids,

oh boy can't wait for death knights on paladin chargers

That's what I am wondering about. I'm guessing that since it says "account" and not "battlenet account" it's per license. And in beta all your characters are on the same "account" so I don't think it can be tested. Hopefully a Blue will clarify this. |

YAAAAAAAY! Omg. I'm seriously super-excited about this, perhaps moreso than quite a few of the other awesome things coming in MoP!
On my raid main, I have 106 mounts. There are a few that I would really like on other chars, but they're either unobtainable (ToC Insanity mount), incredibly expensive (Vial of the Sands and motorcycles), or are just a huge PITA to get (Twilight Drake, Violet Proto, etc). I don't feel like farming up 100+ mounts on every character. Doing it once was enough of a grind! |
|
I hope Vial is exclusive only to the people who bought it or made it. I don't look forward to seeing an influx of dragons because they're account wide. |
|
It really wouldn't be much different than what we're seeing now with the Blizz store mounts, although I'm figuring the cost to make the initial one will still prevent a lot of people from getting it. |
