With the release of patch 4.0.1, Blizzard finally let players travel at super-sonic speed without the need of a specific mount. Yes, for a measly 5k gold (not including faction discounts) you can obtain the ability to travel at 310% flying speed *woop*

The way the changes are working are:

• There are NO mounts with a 310% speed that drop.
• ALL mount speeds will be relative to your riding skill. (If Invincible drops and you have nothing higher than Expert riding, you will travel 150% speed)
