WoW becomes a little easier

In the next major content patch, Blizzard will be making changes to mount requirements to help improve your leveling experience in WoW.

You are now able to get a mount at level 20 and your epic mount at level 40. The Apprentice Riding skill will cost you 4 gold and 1 gold for the mount. You can now get your flying mount at level 60.
