WoW maybe getting level 30 mounts

This set of patch notes from the WoW test servers says that level 30 mounts are being included in the game.

Previously, you don’t get to ride stuff in World of Warcraft until level 40, so the news will come as welcome relief to the mid-range grind.

Thanks, Kotaku.

There’s a night elf joke in here somewhere.

there’s always a night elf joke some where. I can’t say I’m excited about this news I would be more excited if they released a passenger mount.

I’ve got a level 14 human warlock. I’m quite keen on the idea of moving faster, so this is good news.

I really should sell my characters or something one day. I’m never going back.

Level 40′s starting to feel like a long way away, tbh. It’s already getting a little tiring. I need to join a guild, I think.

Levelling becomes a right slog tbh. The best thing to do is to find a guild and just play the game and not worry about the next level.

And free mount at 40? Unless they’ve changed it, I’m sure my first mount cost a fair bit of gold.

for the price of a spell 2 or 3g apart from that though its pretty much free. The level 60 mount though is a whole different ball game I managed to get a few friends to help me with that though. :)
