The Original Epic Mounts

"These mounts were the original 'epic' level 60 mounts present in the game when WoW launched. In Patch 1.4, these unarmored epic mounts were removed from vendors and replaced with the armored level 40 mounts that we have today.

Characters who already owned one of these retired mounts could keep it or trade it in for a new armored mount, but the old versions here can no longer be purchased."

Wouldn't mind seeing this done

Nope, it doesn't. Makeing these mounts buyable are 2, maybe 3 entries in a database. It takes less then a minute to do that. :)


I am all for this then! :)

Delete things out of the game is the most stupid thing, ever. Just introduce them alongside with the retail ones, subjective choosing shouldn't be done by the devs, but by the players. )

If you can buy all the mounts forever, the pre-1.4 ones lose all their flavor.

I agree with Youfie. It'd be kind of a reward for those who were there in the early release months and grinded enough to get their mounts.

Bullshit in my opinion.
What about people joining later and not liking the armored ones? Total nonsense, there's nothing about flavor but aesthetics.

It's jsut about being Blizz-like you know. You put the pre-1.4 mounts in the game only for a certain time span, just like it was on retail.

This suggestion as a much higer chance to be accepted by the staff that way, cause it follows exactly what happened on retail. If you put the mounts for everyone, then it's customization. Just a tiny bit, but still.
