Just wanted to know what do people think about while purchasing a mount. Luxury or just the way to move faster?

this.. I dont care what anyone rides into a dom match, just prefer a 110% mount. 80% is ok for classes mostly going to 2.
Nothing is more dreadful then watching some dude running to 3 with a 50% mount, If im winning by a wide margin, Ive trolled around him in my cheetah.
I got the cheetah because it went on sale once.. that was my massive reason.

1. A account wide mount is for all of your toons, as many as you make.
2. Its fast.
My cheetah went on sale for like 20 bucks once, so thats why I have it.
I did get the jello mount at one time as well, just because the first day it was so ridiculously cheap I couldn't help myself (500 zen) that's the cheapest 80% I saw.
But when your actually in game time is limited a 110% is a life saver, it cuts down travel in zones by over wide margin and lets you do dailies in about half the time. All good things!
Truth be told, I think tensers disc is the coolest looking thing around! Thats the only mount Ive ever seen and said, man wish I had it.

yupp, even before sales it was and still is a decent deal. (at 500ad per Z it's a bit pricey but still worth it if u got alts).
It's always partly about the 'show-off' factor. Of all the mounts I have it's difficult to choose which I like the best. Buyer's remorse on the Ghost Horse (I hate it). But I do like my Heavy Armored Spider a lot. However my favorites will have to be the Dusk Unicorn and definitely the Lord's Armored Polar Bear. These two (artwork-wise) are freakin' gorgeous. And the plus is they are already 110% full Rank III mounts.
Honorable mention for the Emperor's Giant Beetle/(regular Giant Beetle) - the jump and spacebar animations are the best I've seen to date.
We're missing an option where mounts are an aesthetic choice, regardless of whether they indicate the rider is "rich".

LOL! I am working toward that as well on one of my toons - only 80% now, but almost have the AD to upgrade!
Mostly, I do what many others do - look for cheap purple mount on sale. I got the cheetah for some of my toons and warhorse for others.
Yes, I have a few accounts - wish I could combine some, but that would be a nightmare for Cryptic, and heck they make more money from me this way . . .

Under Collection tab, of the one under title "Horse from distant lands".. the one that's featured and white colored & standing up...
Me too! Riding it with the Yeti Hunter suit and the Owl flying beside me, makes me feel like a real Barbarian...
Now I only need a White Dye pack to complete the picture , wait... that´s not available yet

I'm happy for you, and I'ma let you finish, but winter sled has the best space bar animation of all time. I mean come on, you do a rollercoaster loop-the-loop with your arms up in a magical sled.
For me, it's mostly just a transport. I got the one I liked best(Dawn Unicorn, from Hero of the Feywild pack), but yeah, it's a way to get there much faster and spend less time derping around between places and keep up in GG PvP. Plus, sparklehorse.
This is probably the Snowswift Horse which you can get for 270 ardent coins, they are BOE so you can buy someone else's for AD, as well.
So, that's the jist of how I choose a companion, whether it be a Mount or a "Companion." Looks really are only a factor when lore and background are key components and from a role-playing perspective.. the mounts (and companions) choose my characters.

Exception: When Drow came in I saved like a crazy man for the HoTN pack (thanks for the 33% discount on that - saved two months!) as I wanted the Heavy Armoured Spider for my Drow DC. This was mainly for the look and feel for RP purposes, with her Drow merc companion and mount she looks the business. I want the disk though - even better for a senior Drow priestess.
And one more point - join the DWRL campaign today! (Drows Want Riding Lizards)
I already answered that.
It would be 1.25 mil for the cheapest 110% zen mount. For that much, I could upgrade a green companion to purple, buy a Blacksmith for my GWF, or put it toward upgrading one of my weapon enchants. Those things make me stronger. A mount is merely a convenience.
I was able to achieve it for free early in this games life cycle. After I saw how reasonable this game was for f2p player, I spent real money in support of devs/publisher. Which now Idk.
