Mountain of Mounts for the THRIFTY?!?!?

This has been requested and I will start off by telling you...it just CAN NOT BE DONE. There is NO WAY to do this achievement with out investing a GREAT DEAL of money PERIOD. You CAN obtain some of the SMALLER ones though so I will at least LOOK at it for you. I will also mention starting off that I will NOT be listing those mounts that have been removed from the game. So if you have in your possession an Armani Warbear or a Black Proto-Drake or any of the other "old School mounts" you are already ahead of the game! As usual I will begin with those that take really only TIME to aquire and end with those that will cost you *gasp* REAL money.

  1. Wow a great list, this needs stickied on the EM site! Last week I got my Albino Drake, first dragon for me...and yep I invested alot. My advice is, if you arent very lucky in game (read Enok) then get exalted with the 5 Main Factions and buy all those mounts. Now onto 100?

    Good Stuff Dar.
