Mounts / riding (Burning Crusade-style cost)

Official Updated Sep 28, 2026

Description

Riding follows the Burning Crusade model: the gold cost moves into riding training, and a mount comes with learning the skill.

Details

Blizzard text: 'adopting the Burning Crusade-style mount-cost approach, shifting the up-front mount cost into training and granting a mount when players learn the riding skill.' Massively OP: training costs more gold and represents 'time and effort'; no free training at level 40 Exact gold costs and unlock levels have not been published (per LFCarry guide)
