Mounts! Let's share ideas of what we like and don't like.

I love the idea of mount classes. Better speed on horses. Higher carry limit for elephant. 

Dont want silly mounts like a flying broadsword you stand on. 

Would love Mount market place.

  • I don't know if you've seen the mount silhouettes before but you don't need to worry about flying swords xD they won't be normal creatures either xD they've truly taken a unique spin when it comes to creating mounts xD
    if someone can share the mount sihouettes that be great i actually don't have the image saved xD
  • Just pointing out weird stuff I've seen. As long as big mounts carry better than slender mounts I'm happy

    I hope there's a Fly mount. So I can turn into a incy wincy fly and strike fear into the heart of my enemies!

    I believe that would be extremely immersive.

    The flying mount is restricted the the leaders of nodes and to a few lucky people the find a random egg in the wild. They are not permanent mounts though - unless your the champion of a node and you never lose your position ^^

    Can I summon flies as a Summoner to strike fear into the hearts of my enemies then?
  • Custom mounts, limited mounts, special mounts, one of a kind mounts.

    I believe these are the dawnbreaker mounts. 


    #6 is the dragon kings, Queens and Metropolis leaders get to ride maybe?


    #10 looks like a giant Peacock... we can ride in style


  • More pretty silhouettes.

    Mount number 3 looks kinda cute.



    These look like a whole bunch of flying/gliding mounts.
  • I would like to see giants mounts be able to traverse certain terrain that a normal size human can't overcome without climb or jump skill.
  • These are some of the best mounts in the history of fantasy
     
  • Love mounts! Would love to see many different types, some rarer than others. As I have a large interest in the breeding mounts aspect of animal husbandry in this game, I cannot wait to learn more about what kind of mounts that can be bred and the mechanics to it. Mostly interested in horses, cause I'm a crazy horse-girl (kinda), but always interested in other kinds.
  • I just hope they stick with their word about flying mounts. I'd hate to see everyone being able to fly around the map. Their idea of flying mounts being extremely limited is awesome as it gives people a goal to hit and rewarded for working hard in the game. I am not looking to play wow where everyone can get everything.

    In addition to unique and achievement-specific mounts, I am very hopeful for class-specific mounts.

    One of my best memories in WoW was finally obtaining my warlock class mount in vanilla after a challenging quest chain. Additionally, in Legion, class mounts have been some of my friends' favorite events (granted, some of them look terrible).

    Vanilla WoW mounts were an actual achievement. Not now where you just get them will nilly. I remember grinding for hours and hours in that game working to get my lvl 60 mount.
  • I really don't have dislikes at this point. There's not much information for me to share an opinion.
  • Yeah, I've never disliked a mount.... I can't think of any reason to. 

    I like that there'll be professions able to breed mounts, I'm hoping to see tamable mounts as well, like nightmares and unicorns. :)

    I'm with nagash I'd totally ride those into battle. I also want a massive wolf cause wolfs are awesome.

    These butterfly gorillas are gnarly. I can't wait to ride one of those. 
  • Just as long I get to have a Griffin or Dragon as a mount I'm Happy ;)





  • Giant shiba is all we need. Or corgi..
  • I definitely think it will be a unique aspect to the game. It looks like we're going to see some traditional mounts (camel, elephant, horse, many donkey or pack mule) and then some cool versions and mutations like the turtle mount from the KS campaign.
    I would like to see a scorpion mount or their version of one, along with maybe a spider and some kind of dog/wolf (even rabid).
    But with that they should all excel at something better than the other versions, wolf and dogs faster, some better at traversing difficult terrain, some capable of climbing or jumping very high over obstacles etc. That would bring a unique aspect to the game and even make your choices more meaningful.
  • All of these mounts look super cool already by the silhouettes, but it seems all these mounts are going to be huge and that's why I'm scared there will be so much aids you won't even see your screen.

    Also I hope there'll be some very rare mounts, hard to obtain, so if you'll have them you'll be able to feel like a boss. :D
  • I'd settled for the donkey tbh, but these pics are inspiring indeed. An Ice Sabertooth would go down nicely.  
  • Some of these pics you guys are linking are insane.. do you guys have credit to the artists? I wouldn't mind looking up more of these based on artist.
  • The Mule, honestly is my favorite mount. lol But I'm pretty open to the game having whatever mounts, from what we've seen I'm sure there will be some really cool ones.
  • I want a grumpy mount.... one that spends most of the year asleep, but then wakes up and goes at super speeds, only to then (before the season finally changes again ) trying to escape to freedom and eat you...
    If you can survive its attack, you get to keep it another 'year'

    Why would you want a cat?
  • Oh dear, apparently I'm secretly a cat person.  :worried:

    Don't worry, cats are pretty cool.
