Gop.8713 Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 I'm fine with or without a dismount skill, but this is to me far more bizarre than the apparent lack of progress on alliances. It's something they said they were going to do, something ppl seemed to react to positively, something they said was pretty much ready for deployment, then just nothing, total radio silence. It's weird . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aenaos.8160 Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 The dismount button is located on the action hot bar exactly to the right of the elite skill and right above the novelties epic button to end all buttons,exactly where the mount button is when you are not mounted.It is only visible when you are already mounted.I hope this was helpful.

Doug.4930 Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 Honestly, If I had to pick alliances or anything that nerfs the mount. I'd pick the latter in a heartbeat. It just never ceases to amaze me how something as overpowered as mounts hasn't been adjusted yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TinkTinkPOOF.9201 Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 As I said in the post about dismounting people and saving the time and money going into making a dismount skill. Make mounts one hit, so any combat hit from another player dismounts them, remove the knockdown effect from being dismounted, so when the other player is dismounted by combat, they are ready to fight and can defend them selves. I would like to see the dodges removed as well, but keep them if you like or have them linked to your toons dodges. Once this is done, you can even out running speed, as this nerfs roaming and small scale where escaping when trying to ninja something is dead because you can never get away in enemy territory, and it will no longer be needed once any hit dismounts. So the mount can still be used for mobility, those wanting to get back to a zerg can in the same amount of time, they just have to pay a bit more attention and can't run straight through an enemy zerg anymore. And roamers can still get fights and cut off reinforcements to a zerg or structure.This doesn't require work and time on a new skill that could be going into something else, it doesn't require more art or animations etc etc and should have been able to be released in a week. But instead, here we are with alliances 2.0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Initially I thought it was introduced to make it easier for players who would only play when there was a tag to follow so they could get back to their zerg without interference. I was fine with this bc if there is a way for players to let me know they're not worth fighting that's a plus for me. But now all the nerfs seem to be geared towards eliminating that advantage of the mount. So what is the point then . . ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what is the point then . . ?The point was blanket protection for people who don't want combat, but to ktrain all day and not have anyone stop them.All the defenders on the forums however, stated it was a mobility improvement for getting back to tag faster. Even though WvW maps are not very large to start with. It was never meant for WvW and never balanced for it, anyone going into combat on a mount has an instant advantage, it also favors ganking. It also allows people to run around how they want and only taking fights they think they can win or can outnumber someone. It also stopped any advantage mobility specced players had for roaming, as now a zerg spec necro can run you down.Anet doesn't get these issues and others, because they are all casual PvE players.
