Aodlop.1907 Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 To flood the pool of mount skins with ones most players aren't interested in, so they have to buy more gems to get the skins they do want. This mount's so similar to the jackal it might as well just have been a jackal. Make the jackal usable in WvW, disable its blink, give it the Warclaw's ability in this game mode. If anything, that would helped to give the Jackal some form of relevance. 9 2 5 54 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Telgum.6071 Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 (edited) Really? I thought it was added to give WvW players a mount that makes travelling a bit faster, but your take on this is MIND-BLOWING. The comparison with the Jackal is also curious considering each one have unique animations. Edited May 21, 2022 by Telgum.6071 /s 14 2 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have the result, no need to invent a new method of reaching it. 5 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackal isn't underused. Warclaw is k as a wvw specific mount.

Maybe for you, I personally prefer a different mount. 6 minutes ago, Aodlop.1907 said: You guys need to stop using that wide eyes emoji on my posts because they make it seem as though what I'm saying makes no sense when it's, in fact, perfectly logical. So your argument is perfectly logical and by effect, the idea of having a exclusive mount for WvW that would have its own animations, sounds and skins, is completely illogical, right? kitten I love reading these people so full on their own "facts and logic". Edit yay, found the source of this perfectly logical opinion. Edited May 21, 2022 by Telgum.6071 4 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farohna.6247 Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 "I don't like skins for mounts I don't use or like in a mode I don't play" . There fixed it for you. I love my warclaw. It should be unique, it is lovely as it is, and I adore my saberclaw skin. The jackal is more than relevant, ride what you like. This is a fun and frivolous troll of a post. Dear diary, I woke up angry that warclaws don't blink when I hit spacebar.... 8 1 8 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That aside, I definitely think Warclaw is a decent addition and should not be removed. The mount-related issue that should be removed is the RNG behind acquiring mount skins. Just let players choose and buy the skins they want. Edited May 21, 2022 by Fueki.4753 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your Saberclaw skin could be a Jackal skin is what I'm saying. There was never a need for two mounts when they're so similar and one could have achieved the purpose of the other.

The warclaw pulls down walls. The jackal is mobile and blinks. It was an incentive to get people to play WvW, since running on foot gets boring. They really aren't similar. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's remove the Jackal and make the Raptor look and act like the Jackal! They are so similiar, both run and jump. We should also remove the Skyscale and just make the Griffon look like one and do what a Skyscale can! There is no need for two mounts when they are so similiar. 1 4 9 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Telgum.6071 Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 I wonder why Arenanet made the Skyscale when we already had a Griffon, they both walk in four legs and got wings!! 3 4 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashen.2907 Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 Different aesthetics (cats vs dogs is a huge distinction), different abilities, different animations. Personally Jackal is my current standard land mount for PvE. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashen.2907 Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 If the OP had said, "to diminish or destroy the roaming scene in WvW," I might have been inclined to agree, or at least to agree that such was a forseeable side effect. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote but no one actually swaps to the jackal for that That's also just wrong. Not everyone swaps? Sure. But that's different than what you've just said in order to pretend it's somehow underused (or has no reason to be used).
