Comment by 42190Hmm, what is that Pegasus mount icon?Comment by d3cadanceHeirlooms Prices slash is awesome! :DComment by link55557Accompany Wrathion on his journey to obtain blessings from the four August Celestials.Comment by CharlesPheonyxplease to goodness make tiger stance give us at least 15% bonus damage, this 10% atm is not enoughComment by Dave21480This... could be very cool. But also very bad.

PLEASE don't make Wrathion a villain D=
Comment by DoqmasterSo.... now you've changed Stance of the fierce tiger again... good of them to get all the windwalkers hope up with the first update of the 20% dmg buff, wich would have been abit of an overkill. They should just make as it was before, 20% cause that day before patch nerf was just retarded and so not needed.. since as it feels now, ww monk gets sat out cause the other melee class does so much more dmg wich isn't how it should be!Comment by FelzaneThis may be a dumb question but how does the game count mounts for achievements like Mount Parade? If I log into the Armoury it displays ALL my mounts, Alliance ones included, and puts me well over 200, but in game I only have 176. Which do the achievements use?Comment by AshendalTook them long enough to figure out that it was a stupid decision to make upgrading heirlooms that much.Comment by SchadenfreudeNice to see that price slash on the heirlooms, I might actually get enough JP to upgrade more than one.Comment by kingbeckdid i really see a warrior....buff? no..actually its just an un-nerf.Comment by 1109506This post was from a user who has deleted their account.Comment by 1056972agree, is this trading card game mount also or?Comment by TalyriusWe shouldn't have to wait for 5.3 to get the reduced heirloom costs. They can easily hotfix this.Comment by AlkonyThis may be a dumb question but how does the game count mounts for achievements like Mount Parade? If I log into the Armoury it displays ALL my mounts, Alliance ones included, and puts me well over 200, but in game I only have 176. Which do the achievements use?Comment by 1109538This post was from a user who has deleted their account.Comment by Deepthoughtwhy oh why does blizzard do this do us monks? they give us hope of a possible buff then shoot us down shortly after. if they're not going to do any sort of buffs just don't do anything at all with our class, its annoying to get all excited then just reverted back to nothing.TestComment by OpilI'm very dissapointed with armored dragonhawks look , expected something far more creative(Why did it have to be dragonhawk again :S) and more attractive coz 200 mounts is really something that's hard to farm ... armored red dragonhawk is same as red dragonhawk just with some shields on it and recolored wingsComment by InterestLolz dat AoE sunder.Comment by NecromortaI hope they keep this heirloom thing! Great! I was about to buy weapons to my low level chars, but farming that much jp wasn't an appealing idea. :/Comment by 1106458Although the Armory lists both horde and alliance mounts it does not count the opposing faction mounts towards the accomplishment. However, there are some weird quirks, like the fact that my Belf can use the Horde versions of my Alliance mounts without having more than 20 unique mounts herself. Mounts like the Headless Horseman and other non-faction specific, non-class specific mounts count on both sides.
