    Allied racial mounts?

    Do you think there will be some?
    If so, what would you like to see? What would make sense?

    Let's speculate

    There basically already is a Lightforged Elekk in the game for the LF Draenei, and a Manasaber for the Nightborne. The most logical would be to use derivatives of those for those two races.

    Highmountain Tauren can get a Moose, its being shown as their mount all through Highmountain.

    Dark Iron can probably get some iron-themed Rams, perhaps with some additional armor.

    For the Void Elves and Zandalari .. Zandalari obviously would get some kind of dino. Void Elves, they don't really have a culture to draw from, so either a void-themed version of existing elf mounts (perhaps a cat or a strider), or they could go full in on this and design some void-themed crazyness.

    Hmm...

    Lightforged Draenei: Panthora or a marsuul.
    Void Elves: Void version of the one that the Lightforged draenei wouldn't have (those mounts would be freed from the void ethereal, after being void-ified by them).
    Dark Iron Dwarves: Armored boar.
    Zandalari trolls: Triceratops.
    Highmountain tauren: Moose.
    Nightborne: Nothing, just hovering on an illusionary mount. Okay, okay, okay. In all seriousness, a manasaber.

    I admit the Void elf one being a longshot, but I honestly have no idea what would directly fit them.

    They're blood elves...they have hawkstriders front and center when it comes to mounts.

    Didn't they already confirm they were getting their own mounts?

    Yeah, from leaked data it seems Zandalari will have raptors for racial mounts, 3 variants, + one with tag "Gold" so it made me believe it will be paladin mount.

    What leaked data?

    And I would love to see Zandalari getting those huge brontosauraus-like dinosaurs we saw in the features overview video!

    Void Elves?

    Void-Marsuul. Use the fox animations with the flappy Feasel model.
    When you are accustomed to privilege, equality feels like injustice.

    Troll paladin sounds like absolutely awful idea.

    But Zandalari Praletes are a thing, they make up a military unit, and they harness power of Loa, not the Light. Zandalari live in temple complex, and they're heavy priest/scholar society. If paladin class would fit a troll then only this tribe has all the criteria and actual support in game representation :

    It seems unlikely most of them already have mounts from legion rep, but mabye we’ll get mounts for the ones who don’t.

    If they do this before they give night elf paladin, the rage on the forums will be something to behold.

    I don't recall any paladin-like military unit among night elves. Just one NPC in Class Hall. So Zandalari has a number or those prelates and the name of order + specific spells renamed to fit their lore VS 1 unique NPC.

    If the night elves will get more characters that are using paladin way of fighting and got lore around it, then np. But for far I don't really see that big support in game for that.
