Everyone seems to limit this to just being a "scout". If you get a high level (170+) the terror bird can easily be one of the most deadly mounts out there. It's speed is unmatched and its ability to glide from any height, if it has the stamina that is, makes it amazing. If you pump HP, speed, stamina, and later on movement speed, you will have an absolute killer. (WARNING: Even high level terror birds will have low weight, only bring your essentials to maximize on speed!)
