Here’s a preview of the new Farmer’s Faire 2012 mount. It costs 2 race tokens and 120 Farmer’s Faire Tokens. This sounds like a lot but what I’ve seen from the quest rewards so far, the amounts that are rewarded are quite generous.
I has a black and brown tack decorated with golden wheat.
The steed has +62% speed and 200 morale, just like the last Anniversary steed, so this seems to be the new norm for festival steeds that used to have 100 morale in the past.
Oh, thank you for this! And the Farmer’s Faire Cosmetics-post.
That Fresh Flower Circlet looks like something I’ve been longing for for a good while already…
Yay! Thank you Hymne. This horse should match with most outfits, too.

Nice looking horse.
Wonder if they could have it so it was pulling cart full of the summers harvest (Starter zones only.) Then have hobbit on the cart as a helper. If you go too fast or turn too sharply, the harvest starts falling off and hobbit starts bopping you in the head to make you slow down.
Could almost make that into a harvest quest.
Maybe similar quest for delivering ale for the Ale Association/Inn legue. Along the way, the kegs just happen to spring a leak some how. Wonder how that could’ve happened??
Huh…I was thinking they’d go with something that looked more like a draft horse, or had more farm-related tack. Odd choice.
I’ve had a look around the faire today and I think the cosmetics as a whole are rather nice. I particularly like the flower circlet (yay circlets!), and the dress is pretty.
The horse is nice, but like Cennwyn, I was expecting a more sturdy beast – more along the lines, of… I dunno… a shire-horse? Would have been appropriate in more than one way.
btw I saw you earlier in the festival area in Bywater. I did bow and wave to you but I think you were apple-picking from the crates.
Meh I missed that! I was so busy delivering all the shopping lists to the overworked vendor in time! *wave back*
