I like that extra taming requirement idea as well. Also couldn't you add a mount thats truely random shade? Not random bodily fluid color, like actually a totally random color/type spawn. Make it very hard to get to or something. It could end up being an awesome ride for one spawn, then a totally hideous and ugly thing no one would buy next spawn, but at least its a chance for something other then the typical color/types.

On an added note; although taming some mounts can be a pain, since they require high taming, not all mounts are like this. As a matter of fact a few of the ones I have added have very very low taming requirements. This was done for that exact reason, so people who find it have a fair chance of taming it just as fast as anyone else. Not to mention some of them can be tricky to get and if you get to them alive you shouldn't have to spend an hour trying to tame it after going through the ordeal of getting to it.

Thats kinda a double edged sword though, because on one hand, yeah you can get the mount quicker. But if your not GM you want to fail, every fail is another rep. I mean if I'm a 85 skill tamer and I run yew or deceit for some reps, get there, and then succeed third attempt, then yeah I'm happy I have the mount but I'm not really gaining skill either.
