That is pretty cool. Too bad I am too cheap to pay money for those cards.

Too bad it's a normal speed mount. I was so hoping for an epic turtle.

I feel you Loops. In fact, I'll take it to the next step and admit that I can't afford them! Budget is killing me atm. :'(

am i understanding this correctly...you buy these cards for real money. scratch off a code. enter the code into some website to get points. the points go toward purchasing in game items. or you get a special card with a specific reward on it. that correct? if so i see ebay profiting from this venture.

Saltwater Snapjaw: Unique turtle mount (normal running speed, usable at all levels)

That's almost game breaking right there unless they intend to change that. All levels? Seems like that will go for a rediculous amount of cash on ebay for all those twinkaholics.

Did you miss the part that says "normal running speed". That means it moves as fast as your character does normally.

Sure did, that's what I get for reading shit at work really fast. DURRRRRRRR.

Although, I wonder if it will let you use the riding enchants/items to speed it up...

Hm, runspeed enchant gives more haste than mithril spurs.

That with riding to gloves should trump it but I don't know the exact numbers.

Hm, Spurs are 2% increase, Riding enchant is 4% and Carrot is 3%, which i don't think you can get pre 40.

Runspeed enchant is 8%
