I have one more question I forgot to ask. What the hell is with the heroic opportunity stuff I keep seeing pop up? Where can I read about that, and how to execute them? I have no idea how to do those.

MOUNTS
No. You can do the moonlight madness events (the events that occur on the 20th-21st of each month) at just about any level. Complete the quest in any faerie circle and get a shard/gem/whatever. Use the shard/gem/whatever to buy items. One of the rewards is an item that summons a mount. It's a charged item, but the first one should last 2-4 months (or more) and you can have multiple items. It's as fast as anything you could buy until you hit the higher levels.
While you can start the Sinking Sands carpet quest at 40, don't expect to finish it until 55'ish, and even then you'll need a group. It's an improvement over the moonlight madness mounts.
There's a pretty good mount from a quest in Kunzar Jungle. You'll hit it about level 75. This will probably be your mount until you hit level 80.
HEROIC OPPORTUNITIES
To complete an heroic opportunity:
- Click the HO starter.
- A symbol will appear and several spell icons will flash. Cast and land (ie., no resist) any of these.
- A countdown timer and a finish symbol will appear. Any spell icons that match the finish symbol will start flashing. Cast and land any of these to complete the HO.
There are 4 symbol types, usually corresponding to direct damage spells, AoE spells, debuff spells, and buff/healing spells.
Multi-user HO's follow similar concepts, except the starter involves more classes, such as:
- Scout HO starter-->mage HO symbol-->priest HO symbol-->scout HO symbol to start the HO.
- Scout, mage, and priest must complete an appropriate spell, sometimes in order, to finish the HO.
HO's are a small component of your overall damage. However, if you can work them into your standard spellcasting order, it's that much more damage you'll do.
