I was about to say this. A Spriggan is as much a seasonal mount as the Indigo Whale. Unless they specifically made it to be a part of an event, like the Witch's Broom or the Christmas bear, it's not a seasonal item.

You don't. I didn't buy the Fat Cat or the whale, because I had no desire to. It's that simple. I think people need to separate mmos from traditional $60 retail games, because they aren't structured the same.
