World of Warcraft: cross-racial mount quest harder with 2.1.0?

Remember the cross-racial mount quest (which, unforgivably, this blogger has referred to as cross-faction mounts) in World of Warcraft where you could grab a ride on races in your same faction? Well, seeing as the quest is probably much easier when done in conjunction with faction-wide reputation quests, it wouldn’t be surprising to hear that it gets difficult at times to attain.

But with the new content patch, word spread around that aims to become Exalted is no longer a “climbing Mount Everest” affair. In fact, many have been quick to say that getting to top reverence in your faction is easily attainable, especially if you complete the reputation quests in their starting areas.

But WoW Insider’s Amanda Rivera revisited memory lane and found that going about the same cross-mount grind over a reputation quest using the 2.1.0 patch was a little bit harder than usual. Is it just coincidence? Or is there another undocumented change for particular rep grinds for the new patch?

But perhaps it’s simply a different experience when going about Blizzard‘s Children’s Week (a World of Warcraft event) instead of the old Lunar Festival rep grind, although both still have the full optimal ability to get you on one of your faction’s good side. Nabbing a ride for a particular race in your own faction shouldn’t be hard. Nabbing a ride in each race in your faction is another story, though.
