I have 3 toons 1 op 1 dc and 1 sw but I tend to rotate only between op and dc. Just got a glorious epic mount box pack and I want to give to my dc (anointed) a mount but I can't decide on the bonuses power/recovery/AP gen. My dc generates AP fast enough so that would be a distant 3rd. What do you guys think?

    On my main DC, she has plenty of recovery from gear and boons, so I generally go for power. I'd suggest going power for now and get a feel for it then switch to recovery and do the same or similar stuff to see if you notice a difference either way. It really depends on what your recovery and power are, which I'd choose. If you're like me and have plenty of recovery from gear and boons, you'd probably want power. Can't really go wrong with more power anyway unless all your other stats are terribly low, which it doesn't sound like it if you like your AP generation as it is now.

    If you're an AC get a Whirlwind or Drake (2k power). If you're a DO Griffins are wonderful (CD reduction)

    You really can't go wrong with a 2k power mount on a DC tbh (if you have different loadouts).

    Power from a mount counts for sharing (WoL, BoB, AA). That's important, because many buffs and bonding stone power does not.

    IMO, the only thing that trumps power on a mount is the legendary / legacy snail 25% AP gain on casting daily or maybe the griffin cooldown reduction. And those also more situational / niche. Power is universal.

    I don't know the market on PS4 but on PC a Glorious Resurgence Mount Pack are only 300K. but you might be able to sell the pack and buy a mount with the bonus you want for less.

    I personally do not like stat mounts. They are very bland and stat priorities can change based on Diminishing Returns and modified game mechanics.

    For example, many people will say power is good, but ultimately its a low ROI stat; the benefit is it has always been the garbage stat and doesn't suffer from a hardcap or diminishing return

    Meaning i prefer the mechanics ones like AP gain or CD reduction because they work outside of the diminishing return mechanics.

    I'd also consider which insignia bonus you want. For example there are 6 +2,000 power mounts and selecting the one with a useful insignia bonus is helpful. And insignia bonuses will probably have more life than the mount as your stat balancing/interest change.

    grypion CD reduction also reduces the CD on Hallowed Ground if your having challenges keeping Hallowed Ground down permanently.
