I think there needs to be a more stable way to get mount skins before introducing lootboxes. Since PoF, the only way to obtained mount skins is from holiday specials, and this lootbox nonsense. Both of them are only temporary too. The warforge skin is beautiful, but the 2k gem price point doesn't make sense in comparison to what a player can buy with the same 2k. Even though the skin probably took some time and effort, it's not worth it from a players perspective - for 2k gems, I can get multiple convenience items that would improve gameplay, or buy multiple skins to make my toon fabulous. The 2k gem price would be more worth it if it was bundled with some other items: dye kits, repair canisters, pretty much the filler items in bl chests. I only use the jackel mount in niche situations too, and mainly use the raptor mount since it's faster. I can't justify buying that skin for a mount that is seen on occasion, and I'm not willing to move slower to show it off. Personally, it would be great if we could get at least one set of mount skins obtainable through gameplay - make a legendary mount skin or something, kinda like how Ad Infinitum is an in game obtainable gilder. Then, have some permanent mounts skins rotate in the gemstore. Maybe something like 600 gems for a simple mount design, 700 for a medium mount design, 800 for hard mount design, and 1000-1200 for a warforge type skin. After a stable rotation of mounts skins, add the lootbox back with the 400gem per roll, since even though players can't pick the skins, the price point would still make it worth it, or put something like the bl chest exclusive items for more incentive to roll. Pretty much give players more reasonable options to get mount skins. Not temporary bundles, an overpriced skin, and a no choice no freedom dice roll.
