Varactyl mount is coming!
Check your mail! You should Just have received an email from BioWare saying that there is an upcoming varactyl mount in the new “Freelancer’s Bounty Pack” in SWTOR.

SWTOR Systems Designer NathanEmmott posts: Howdy everyone!I wanted to pop in here and let everyone know that we are very much reading y’all’s suggestions (and the ensuing debates ). I figured the Animal Mounts discussion would be a good one to jump in and let you know that creature mounts are something we have wanted for quite some time now. Now, obviously I can’t tell you anything concrete yet – mostly because there isn’t anything concrete yet – but I can tell you that Hoth doesn’t feel right without being able to ride a tauntaun. Awesome! So there’s nothing “concrete” as he said but we know they are on the way….
Mount Library / Jedi Sentinel End Game PvP Gear
As our servers are going down on Saturday for a new build, our secret friend decided to get most of the mounts and show them to you guys. He wasn’t able to specifically name them due to time issues, but those are the looks of them for the most part. He is also wearing the full set of Sentinel PvP gear.
