Good Evening freyasoul,
''Pathfinder Part One'' 20% Speed bonus, was intended to increase mount speed by 20%. This does not include Shapeshifts such as the Deer travel form.
Blizzard Designed it this way - this is because, if a player in Bear Form or Cat Form would have a 20% Bonus Speed, then it would be unfair.

Best Regards Ksawery

If you read in linked wowhead comment section, you can see people complaining about it AND that later on it has been fixed and applied to travel form, so this is indeed game bug that has been later fixed.

Good Morning freyasoul,
The Evidence you have provided persists from 8.0.1 - whereas now we are on 8.3.7.
However, I think you are correct - this is simply a Bug, but, the Patches can also be a Major Factor - this is because the Bug was fixed in 8.0.1 after many complaints..

Best Regards Ksawery

Pathfinder achievement has been added in patch 8.0.1.27326 so of course the bug would have been noticed right then and there not at 8.3. Do you imply they removed the bug fix in 8.3.?

Edit> could this be because this bonus does not apply to flight form? but even then it should apply to ground travel. And in wowhead there was a mention that it didn't work for Demon Hunters too at start, and my dh doesnt have speed bonus, guess I'm making another post. Seems on freakz this achoevemnt is in 8.0 phase before it was fixed

RE: freyasoul,
I am not implying that they removed a ''Bug'' Fix, as that would simply not make sense.
What I am implying however - is that because Freakz decided to start at 8.3.7 so there would be less Bugs (because if Freakz started at 8.0 then the fixes wouldn't save for the next Patch.
That could mean that perhaps the ''BUG'' that Original WoW implemented a ''FIX'' for in 8.0.1 WAS perhaps not transferred along to the 8.3.7 that we have now.
I believe this is a BUG, you are not mistaken - it just needs a fix like Blizzard has done it.

My demon hunter doesn't have this speed bonus too, my other alts do have it, should I make a new post or add to this main one?

Thanks for all the help and patience!

RE: freyasoul,
I think you should edit your Demon Hunter one into your main Post, and just add some evidence and explain it.
That should be fine - thanks for the Reports.

Best Regards Ksawery
