Well, assuming travels are 1k on your server...
A 60% mount matches the speed bonus given.
Most mounts have some damage, but this is extremely weak. About the damage used for farming.
So a constant haste. Assuming it takes 5minutes to get to each boss, thats 1/3 of a haste. Let's assume 330g.
You get 5hastes per box in a event chest. These aren't to rare, let's assume 1/75chance of getting them. 5travels is 15 1/3 travels. That's 15runs to a boss, about 3wks depending on your server.
Assuming there's a new event every 4monthes and at the begining of every month you buy 400chests (100$)
This means about 500 travels.
1500 1/3s. 1500 boss runs. That's a LOT of boss runs, 1500. Lasting you an incredible 400monthes. Assuming you distribute them, U have 500 boss runs.
130 monthes. That's 11yrs and a few more MONTHES.
500*330=165k.
So would U rather spend 3.2m every year for a new 60% mount or pay 165k for a life amount of hero travels?
Now it's pretty clear why I don't use mounts, isn't it?

Re: What should a mounts price be?
#4I travel to more then 15 bosses using travels in 3 weeks. Your calulations look inaccurate.
I don't think many people buy the new mounts every event
Id rather use my mount the majority of the time and only use travels if a boss is up and a rival clan is getting ready to lock battle so I'm not wasting time getting weapons out and waiting for my offhand skill

#5I just used a old 80/10 dragon staff which seemed to be well worth the price havent used travel lixs for a while.
Thanks for Cross Platform OTM!
Re: What should a mounts price be?
#6Or buy any 80% mount for ~200k and you're set for life. Not to mention your calculations are horrible wrong.Well, assuming travels are 1k on your server...

Re: What should a mounts price be?
#8Math and logic arent ur strong sides. Also, a mount for like 200k with 80% speed sets u forever unless u feel like upgrading. Id like to have even higher speed, but meh.

Re: What should a mounts price be?
#9In reality you pop a run lix and sprint to the boss for 1-2 minutes tops then can easily blow the next 15 there. It's realistic to get about one boss per so 1k/lix per boss. Unless you are a ranger using bola once you are there the run lix is of limited valueWell, assuming travels are 1k on your server...

It's nice to run fast permenantly anytime so if you play 5hr a day that's 20 lix per day. You would blow through 500 lix in 25 days solo, and in 5 days running 5 toons. If you don't buy plat yourself there are often droughts so you need to buy hundreds to thousands of them to avoid these. People who don't can run out for weeks at a time.

130 monthes. That's 11yrs and a few more MONTHES.
Think of it this way you could sell those 500 lix, get a used lvl150 offhand and a generic 80% broom. Or you could old them in inventory where you utilize none of their value.500*330=165k.
So would U rather spend 3.2m every year for a new 60% mount or pay 165k for a life amount of hero travels?

Unless you want to blow money for fashion there really isn't a need for the high expense. Cammo is nice for many toons to keep from dying when you travel.
Personally the 180k or so I spent on generic 80% mounts is well worth it in the long run.

Re: What should a mounts price be?
#10It's just a estimate. And that's not including bosses in tower, as those aren't bosses that give their own drops, they give items for edl. Instead im accounting for bosses like snorri, aggy, mordy, etc.I travel to more then 15 bosses using travels in 3 weeks. Your calulations look inaccurate.
