    This is what it took to get the mount for me.

    This is why they delay being able to purchase mounts. They're banking on people doing exactly what you did: spamming it beyond the 99 times, thus keeping the content alive longer. If they let you purchase the mount from the onset, you'd have stopped at 99 and may never gone back.

    After you get 99 totems you've guaranteed the mount, just wait for the whistle. No reason to run more after that point short of foolishness or impatience.

    Which a lot of people are. Look at how I quoted. They ran it 340 additional times. Plenty of people do the same thing, hence why they wait.

    Some people are just like this though.
    My old FC leader on Tonberry ran Titania EX about 250 times despite getting the mount drop around the 120 mark.
