One thing I’ve chosen to do with regard to leveling my toons is to pick a ground only mount for them to use during their leveling process in Pandaland. The combo ground/flying mounts I will have plenty of time to play around with at 90 but the ground only mounts often get lost in the shuffle once you hit max level.
My main, Askevar, rode her Rivendare’s charger all around Pandaland while leveling. And that will now be her mount in ground mount only areas… should there be any 😛 And my feral druid who is now level 87 is riding the Raven Lord. It’s been such a long time since I’ve properly enjoyed some of these mounts.
So the ground mount riding sucks for alts, but might as well make the best of it since it’s going to be that way.

My goblins dream of rocket camels, but they realized that being unable to fly meant that regular camels were just as good!
Man, this reminds me how much I hardly ever use my ground-only mounts anymore. It’s usually the combination ones. I envy you for having the Raven Lord as a mount. /sigh
I still use the Arch bug mount on my main. It’s just too good not to use.
My alts generally use their mounts from vanilla or their class mounts as I don’t really see them otherwise 🙂
After I hit 90 I was still using ground mounts until I remembered I could fly.
