    All I know is there better NOT be a Goldmane or there would be no point to all of the ones given out as prizes for very hard events and won from the eggs. All the people winning Threetails, fishthatcan'tswim, and Panda knew it was going to be released later- the goldmane better stay as a symbol of pride.

    Even though I really really want one I'd rather earn it.

    Thats what I said when they released the Ninetails. 5 of us on the server had them and *poof* in the Boutique.

    The only good news for me is....I sold my Bulbfish when I got is (sea sickness...no seriously...) and the others I do not like, if my predictions are right.

    Although..the new mounts that I seen...there is one that would be nice...


    Ninetails I think I will stay with...

    The difference with all the other mounts though is that they were given as prizes with the fact they would be released later. It was made clear they would be, and the prize ones were just teasers. But then the madness came and mounts that would never be 'released' for cash shop items were indeed put into boutique (Silver,violet,b.raptor) and that destroyed their pride value and there was nothing to work towards anymore. I was willing to play the game and raise the 15-20mil for the silver, but then they were released. When I realized that, I set my goal to the black raptor- and wouldn't you know it, there it was in boutique. Aside from the midnight and nightfall(and chromatic but x-mas is coming), there are no more rare mounts. Sure there are some that aren't in boutique anymore, but they will come back eventually and it's only a matter of time. What I want to work towards is a mount that's lovely, expensive, and extremely exclusive. The goldmane fits that, and if it were to be released... I don't really see any other indulgence I could work towards. o.O

    No, the Ninetails came months after, but it would seem every "rare" mount will eventually be in game. Including the GoldMane b:surrender

    For you I hope not but here was the Ninetails progression:

    Contest --> Eggs (jolly/etc) --> Limited Sale --> Eggs (jolly/etc) --> ?

    ** Was kinda similar with the Dragon Quest mounts.....

    Just a guess work on wht the mystery mounts will be ....


    Here are the clues! Good luck! (all times listed are Server Time)
    12:00pm - 1:00pm: It wouldn't be a limited edition mount sale without this! This hint is the most vague b:sad Maybe an unreleased mount?
    1:00pm - 2:00pm: Well, it looks nice to me! Bad Panda
    2:00pm - 3:00pm: Hail to the chief! Battlecat
    3:00pm - 4:00pm: That's gonna leave a mark! No clue.
    4:00pm - 5:00pm: How is this not a flying mount?Fish? Although it could be the Christmas Reindeer...Would make sense with Christmas around the corner.

    Wht is your guess.

    Agreed. If it's rare enough, it'll end up being in the cash shop sooner or later.
    I post in forums. This one and others. That's why I post.

    The devs make things "rare" and exclusive for a reason. It's actually a very smart business practice.
    The general population does not have access to these items... pop them in the CS for a few days/hours and they see that "they too" can have these rare items that they have been teased with...so they either buy zen or buy gold from the AH (and people who want to make a few coins buy zen and sell through the AH). I'm sure their revenue during these times spike.
    Now these items aren't so exclusive... so they release something else to take its place as the new rarity. And the cycle continues.

    Supply vs demand folks. b:surrender

    There will never be anything that stays rare and exclusive in this game.. it doesn't make good business sense.
    b:bye

    not rly gonna bother with the others, but 12-1pm I'd guess would be spur sale. Of course if mounts are going to be introduced they gotta have a way to spur them :P

    I would think the first one would be Nienbeast, Its really the only mount that's been limited edition so far.

    Edit: Darn, ninetails, way wrong.

    I actually disagree. The Ancient Boa has only been in the CS once and that was almost a year ago, I believe. Where as the NienBeast has been in at least twice and it's the mount you see the most.

Emerging from this darkness takes more then courage, it takes faith in ones own mind and more importantly in ones own heart. To deny the light is to deny yourself the feeling of true happiness and true peace within your own soul. Denying your own happiness and your own soul is denying all that one has to live for."
