    I'm actually working on getting that unicorn right now lol. Considering I already have a lvl 50 WAR that's a free mount for me! The way I see it "tanks" are boring to use, you take hits, stand in one place for most of the fight, and for a lot of people, scared of the pressure to even try it because they don't want to labeled a bad tank, at least I did when I first started tanking. So they stick to dps since it's a lot safer than the alternative and the raid can carry on without you most of the time if you're down. I'll admit, I'm not impervious to it, I've been called a shit tank a few times starting out(still happens on occasions at lvl 50), mainly because I had no idea what I was doing, it stuck with me for awhile, until someone from Hyperion in a DF took the time to explain it to me and its pretty much been smooth sailing since. However, what usually makes me laugh is, it's usually a DPS player with no tank class that think he's a tanking expert.

    Tanking is my favorite role! To me, it is the most interesting part of a fight. So, it's just a matter of taste I suppose. I tend to gravitate toward Tanking on every MMO I play. As a Tank, you're responsible for defending your party and maintaining order on the battlefield!

    I don't think a mount incentive would be a great idea though. People should play different roles because they enjoy them and a mount should be an an added bonus to that enjoyment, not payment for playing in a way that you don't like.
