    Um... Didn't it used to be 250 gold for mount training?
    It's doubled to 500 gold now...?

    The old rate was 1 lesson for 250 Gold, so that's a rate of 250 Gold/lesson.

    The new rate is 3 lessons for 500 Gold, so that's a rate of 166.66 Gold/lesson.

    It costs more, but we're also getting more lessons each time. Overall, we save more Gold in the long run.

    Everything is working okay so far... Trade Bar conversion done... but now that I'm in there is one burning question: skill & attribute respec is now free and in-menu. But CP respec still costs 3000g. I find that odd.

    Especially because at a flat rate it penalizes less developed accounts the most, and those are the ones who can use it the most.

    I’m glad skill and attribute changes are free, but those scaled in cost because they were always 50 gold per point invested. (Subclassing aside, as it was much later and done very differently, possibly in anticipation of this change.) Even with lots of skill points invested it was still often a smaller percentage of a more developed account’s wallet to respec, but at least it did scale in cost. CP doesn’t. The time when it’s most useful and rewarding to have the freedom to explore is when that cost hits the hardest.

    I get that this is one of only three things Armory slots still have over add-ons in terms of utility now (and then the Armory only saves the costs), but it’s still going to feel to me like an anachronism that was overlooked.

    Right! When you can just fill out the CPs and swap stars around once you get past 1600+, it's moot. When you're still CP160 and trying to figure it all out, 3000 gold may be a lot more to scrape up. Especially multiple times.
