Last reviewed: October 9, 2026. Mount collection in Forever spans several reward sources, each with different requirements. A single shopping list can hide important faction and class restrictions.
What matters for this topic
Separate vendor mounts from quest rewards, reputation unlocks and promotional sources. Not every datamined mount should be treated as obtainable at launch.
Mount eligibility can depend on faction, class, riding skill, reputation or a quest. Confirm the source and restrictions before committing time or gold.
Practical steps
Use the following short plan as a starting point, then adjust it for your character, group and the current test build. A good decision should be repeatable and easy to review when the next update changes the rules.
- Filter rewards by class and faction first.
- Check riding skill and gold requirements.
- Track quests or reputations still incomplete.
- Treat datamined or future-update mounts as unconfirmed.
What can go wrong?
Avoid spending gold based on datamined items or uncertain vendor locations. After a patch, confirm information in the client instead of reusing a screenshot or price estimate from an earlier test.
Frequently asked question
Can I assume every datamined mount is obtainable?
No. Mount appearance in client data does not establish a live quest, vendor, price or release date.
