Those Proto Drakes are hot

[Ragnarawk]

Proto Drakes look awesome! My rogue demands a black one! :P

[Legionn]

So many mounts to choose from, I just can't decide which one to use.

[bbr]

The proto-drakes look pretty badass.
Shame they're all 280% speed I guess?

How does the passenger thing work?

[Phyra]

Actually, I just have a really quick question. While watching all the updates regarding mounts, drakes, proto-drakes, I noticed a few that were mentioned early on, but never re-mentioned when their names went from gem-oriented names (IE: Ruby Drake, Amber Drake, etc) to simple color based names (IE: Red Drake, Bronze Drake).

Were the drakes, listed below, discontinued/scrapped, or are they still in the works for being implemented in the expansion?

Were they just place holders, nixed, or are still in there and just not mentioned?
Thank you in advance!

Are these mounts, the protodrakes too, mounts that you can buy from vendor/chain quest or they are only for who drops them in an instance or something. Or better, are they aviable for pvp players or only for pve?

sorry for english

[Neverend]

OH MY GOD THE PROTO DRAKES ARE INSANE

[LavaDuck]

"This is a very fast rug"

But it's the truth!

Currently, the protodrakes are rewards for certain achievements, usually raiding or doing 5-mans, but one of them (purple I think) is a reward for doing all of the Holiday achievements. Some of the mammoths and bears are just purchasable from a vendor in Dalaran. Engineers can make the motorcycle, and it's BOE so everyone can use it. Tailors make the flying carpets, and they're BOP. The drakes so far have only been from raids. I'm sure the 'black war mammoths' are from PVP, similar to the rest of the 'black war' mounts that you can already buy.

[BadTime]

pity that diffirence between 10man and 25man (Necks i.e.) is so small.

[Jukaï]

The 'regular' Bronze Drake mount drops from a bonus boss in Heroic: Culling of Stratholme, which also is required for some achievement apparently. If this mount is a 100% drop or not is not something I can say, but he seems to have nothing else in his loottable currently then the mount and a Badge.

[Sonikk]

Is it only me that notices that the Azure Drake is the only armored one, and to me looks like S5s answer to Gladiator Netherdrakes?

[atlantez]

Does anyone know already if the quest for the 10-man and 25-man can BOTH be completed?

ie. Save the 25-man quest for your mainspec and complete the 10-man quest for your offspec?

Would be badass and a solid way to obtain two great neckpieces.

They are seperated. You can do both of them if you have the luxury. Hence the difference in item levels between rewards from either quest.

[Lombra]

So any ideas of where the other non-proto drakes are from?

[Varkie]

!!I NEED A PROTO DRAKE!!

[stupid11]

I was a bit disappointed when they showed the new flying mounts, being these the "non-proto" drakes cuz imo they're kinda ugly but after seeing the proto-drakes, Oh my god am I going to get one of those!

That's what I thought, then I noticed this:

"This is a very fast rug"

FREAKING AWESOME. I want a very fast rug.

[niallghas]

Do we have any screenshots of the non-fast rugs?
