flying mounts only for guild leaders????

how do you guys feel about only the guild leader from a castle holding guild gets the flying mount?
i think the entire guild has cooperated equaly in order to secure the castle so why only single out the leader of that guild to get it.

I understand that keeping these mounts super rare makes it all the more epic to have one however i think giving it to the guild leader is unfair to the rest of the guild. Wouldn't you agree?

instead you could for example give them to people no1 on leaderboards or something. This way you would also prevent the same people always having it

what do you guys think?

Honestly, not really. Flying mounts are going to be incredibly rare and they are temporary. If I had my druthers they wouldn’t exist at all, so keeping them isolated to guild leaders is fine.

i agree with not having them at all, but wouldn't it be better if for example the person who took the throne got the mount instead of the guild leader?

I like it as it is. Reminds me of L2 mmo. I hate how common flying is in most mmos now.

I think an issue with letting someone else other than the guild leader get the mount is that it will then be sold to the highest bidder in some cases. You're not gonna give someone leadership of your guild to sell them a mount. That is for sure.

No, those who achieve their reward should receive it. Don't add limitations like that considering how much of a rarity these will be.

They are specifically able to be traded - at least while eggs.

Yes, flying mounts will be strictly available for some "Mayors of metropolis nodes and Kings and Queens of Guild castles. Royal mounts can also be dropped from legendary world bosses."

The eggs are exchangeable so it should be available for anyone ? (For the rich players and for the lucky players).

The limitation is that eggs will be extremely rare. Every one who found an egg should deserve to use the mount. This is an injustice that is sure to cause controversy.

so what about pvp? will a player with a flying mount be able to pk someone and just fly up to become unreachable by any other player who doesn't have a flying mount?

This is not a real problem as the flying mounts will be extremely rare.

the ones found in the open world maybe but not the ones designated for positions of power.

Only GMs should have this power.

otherwise give me a 8,8 Flak....

tbh reason why castle holders and metro holders get flying mounts i feel was a design choice to give better vision of the battle field to coordinate your troops aswell as lay down fire in area that need assistance. the holder of castles/metro have most to loose so this is there added advanatage however attacks can invest time/coin with buying or getting a temporary flying one if they want the same advantage.

flying mount outside of met/castle holders will be rare/hard to aquire so i suspect they only get hatached when there needed for seiges.

Monarchs have to be a guild leader???

Liniker

it's guild leaders, mayors, and a few lucky players that get an egg, no more than 20 players per server,

I personally think it's too much, I would be more than happy with only guild leaders, mayors and no more than 2/3 eggs at a time

with 10k players, I am willing to bet there will be more than 20 guild leaders. Probably an "additional" step then just being a guild leader.

Dygz

It's just Monarchs and Mayors, so...
The additional step is that the Guild Leader would either need to be a Monarch or a Mayor.
The other super-rare eggs are even more temporary, I think... lasting less than one month.

I'm in for temporary overpowered stuff if you can't stockpile them

Monarchs is the title they are using for the pvp castle owners of that month. Since they are guild content, the guild leader "becomes" the monarch. Since there are only 5 castles, there are only 5 guilds that those leaders come from at any given time. Metros mayors are similarly capped at 5, but can be anyone, not just a guild leader/owner. There are restrictions and steps planned to keep people from cheesing the system by just swapping around leader while their guild is in control of a castle to cheese the "ownership" of the flying mount. Node mayor cannot be similarly transferred. The player looted eggs have been said by Intrepid to never exceed the base number of 10 base flying mounts available from those mechanics. So meaning that in a perfect storm there will be a maximum of 20 eggs "hatched" at any one time. That loot (the egg) has a timer, so people will not be stockpiling them. So they will get the egg, and have to sell it before the timer runs out, hatch it, or lose it. Then it has depending on the level of the animal husbandry prof they give it to "process" a life of 15-30 days. (irl time, does not pause while offline). And finally, they are part of the whole restriction process on how often and from where they can be launched. You need a Royal Stable to launch a T3 mount. So if you have an egg, hatch it, you better have access to a guild castle or metro with one if you want to use it for the I think it was 30 minutes at a time you can use it. (tbd during testing)

I love the idea of propping up guild leaders as these massive figure heads, almost emporer like. Everyone wants to be special, but our desire to give everyone a trophy means nobody is special. If you want to be special, then go create your own powerful guild and make your way to the top, or go work your way to becoming the head of some religious group or whatever else they plan on putting in the game. Then and only then will you be special enough, and you can fly above everyone else while they look up and go "Ooooooh! Ahhhhh!". I think players need to get it in their head that... they're not special. Being special is the exception, not the rule.

I like the limit just because it makes it more likely for insurrection to happen
