I figured I was getting close to the 400 mount Achv and decided to check it. OH WOW!! 398!!!
Well that’s easy. I have TONS of for-gold-only mounts I haven’t bought yet. I’ll just head out and scoop two up.
Buy the first one and learn it. Still 398.
Buy another … still 398.
I even logged in and out in case it just wasn’t updating properly. But it still has me at 398.
So how can I tell what my ACTUAL count is on THIS CHR (my main)? gawd, even worse when I open the mount tab, it actually says I have 450!!! (wth with THAT??)

Do you have a Lock, Pally, or DK they traditionally have more mounts since they have more class mounts. For example if I get a mount on my Hunter my total does not update till I switch my Paladin.

Yeah I have one of everything.
I have an original Warlock mount from Vanilla.
I have most of the Class-mounts from Legion.
But how can I tell what the ACTUAL count on my main chr is??
You have to look at the achievement itself. That will give you an accurate count.

The Achv is what is telling me I have 398! lol And it didn’t go up when I learned TWO new mounts!
Did you log on to your pally?
Edit: it could be showing the most mounts you have on one character that being your paladin and it wont update to 400 until you log onto your paladin.

Also some of the faction mounts count as one per faction. You may already have the equivalent mount on the other side.
Pally or warlock since they have the most individual mounts will kick you over.

I always have to log into my pally and it ticks up. All those class specific mounts help move the ticker up. Or possibly if you have another toon with some sort of character specific mounts(used to be this way for rated PvP ones but I think it’s changed)
But there should be some way to tell how many mounts the game is counting for THIS chr.
And unless I’m mistaken, if Brock has 23695 Achv points, and my Pally has 100, when I log on my Pally, if the total goes over 400, HE will get the Achv, get 110 pts…
… and when I log on Brock, since the Achv is shared, Brock will still have 23695. No no no… can’t do it that way. 
Edit: does Simplearmory show a per-chr total?
This is what I was going to suggest…I have to log onto my pally to get it to update. Good luck!
What mount count you see on your char IS that char’s. If you’re worried about achievement points, then don’t know what to tell you. Some achievements are shared so Brock should get the points too.
Go ask on the Achievement Forum - they know those things better than GD prolly.
As I recall, in the achievement window there’s a “statistics” panel and under there somewhere is a mount count for that toon. Sorry I’m light on details; it’s been a while since I actually looked there =/
The achievement knows the largest number it’s seen among your toons, but learning one won’t increase the number if the toon doing the learning still has that number or less.
Statistics > Character > Gear > Mounts owned, will show you each specific character’s total.
The achievement tracks the character with the most usable mounts and doesn’t update until that character is logged on, which threw me off as well. Gratz on 400!
Thanks @Vere, that did the trick! In the stats page, it shows Brock has 398.
Another Battle for Nazj tomm and I’ll get that mount. And then I’ll … buy one of those stupid 300k frog mounts. That’ll give it to me.
