Mounts

So a friend of mine is one of those achievement happy types, who runs around the world doing them all.
Right now hes working on Mounts and has 94 of them.
I decided to compose a list of all the mounts in the game so he could come here and view them....
These are horde only mounts and mounts available to both races, but no alliance =]
I've also included a list of mounts that are no longer available, and my list of the top 10  flying/riding mounts.
There are currently:


         * 122 mounts available to Horde characters.
         * 2 mounts available exclusively to death knight, warlock, and paladin classes.
         * 2 mounts available exclusively to the Engineer profession.
         * 2 mounts available exclusively to the Tailor profession.

Note: Mounts that are no longer currently available, regardless of whether they currently exist in the game, have not been included in this count.
  • 2 mounts available exclusively to death knight,warlock, and paladin classes.

  • 2 mounts available exclusively to the Engineer profession.

  • 2 mounts available exclusively to the Tailor profession.

  • Note: Mounts that are no longer currently available, regardless of whether they currently exist in the game, have not been included in this count.

    Check Boxes next to each mount so you can make a note of what you do have =]

    TOC - No Trash

    So we have entered yet another new world of dungeons, "TOC":  except this one really has a twist..
    OMG!! NO TRASH!!
    Who would have thought we'd actually get a raid instance that didn't involve hours of endless trash.

    I guess if you ever did AQ40 and made it as far as killing The Twin Emperor's then did the trash heading up to C'Thun
    any trash in the game since, has been pretty simple and/or boring.

    Sunwell trash put most avid raiders to sleep it was so boring, and made the zone seem much longer then it really is.
     Although days of OLD in Naxxarams 40,  the trash was extremely annoying, & much more difficult then the 10/25 WOTLK version, where you had to be on your toes.

    Trash in Hyjal was more waves of fighting the same sort of crap, it really didnt seem to be difficult and it was at least  fast clears, more so because you had to defeat one wave before the next came to avoid being unindated with mobs.
    BT trash was simple and you breezed through it with ease, and lets face it, out of all the BC/Wotlk trash encounters, the hardest was the TK pulls, small area lots of trash that were pretty mean tempered and CC was utilised a shit ton to get through it.
    I guess this is our reprieve of some sort, given TOC is an arena style dungeon and thus far in both 10/25 modes it has been relatively easy without any hitches.
    of course we still have to encounter hard modes and I'm hoping these will be much more of a challenge.
    Given that my guild  "The Horde Initiative"  only joined forces about a month ago, we have cleaned up rather well for a brand new guild, especially  in TOC. 
    With Ulduar style in the mix, and a great team of people and players i see us climbing the realm ladder and being a force to be reckoned with.
    Bring on the next TOC boss, we are itching at the butt to clean up that one too, and move onto HM's.
    Although I'm glad to say the no trash dungeon is a nice change (although Maly was trash free too - but a single encounter)..
    I'm hoping the trash comes back into future dungeons to give us more of a variety of things to do and achieve in the raiding game.
    Less trash - Sure ..... No Trash - Boring!
