There is no need for two mounts when they are so similiar. Careful now, WoW players will accuse you of copying their ideas. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I almost never use the raptor Agreed- I use jackal way more than raptor, and win races with it far more often 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cuks.8241 Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 I prefer Jackal to raptor. It has slightly faster running speed, I think 5% or 10% and it has better manouvering to raptor. In races designed for raptor I think they are head to head. I use raptor same as bunny, mostly just for engage. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. You might as well say it’s similar to the skyscale too. Remove the wings, shorten the tail, fatten it, change the skills, and it’s the same mount. Edited May 22, 2022 by Inarius.5348 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lion.6590 Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 (edited) Mount license here are split between categories and you never get a duplicate which means that your odds of getting the skin you want increase every time you buy a random license of the same type, and still you have the option to purchase a more expensive license but with 100% chance to get the one want. From my experience with others MMOs, they would throw all the skins in the same box with a bunch of other crappy items that have a much higher chance just so you almost never get a skin. So go spent a few hours farming, buy the expensive license and stop complaining on the forums. Edited May 22, 2022 by JasonLucas.4981 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackal is by and large the most useful ground mount.. its speed is as good as the Raptor, faster than the warclaws, does great instant Aoe damage to bunches of enemies, can teleport away from enemies, never takes fall damage due to teleporting and gives everyone a barrier to survive different encounters.

Warclaw used to: -Run fast on your team border -Capture objective without needing to dismount, preventing one-shot build. It can also STEALTH!! -Give extra heights boost when dismounted -Kill 10 downed players instantly and inflict long bleeding to non-downed So it was very useful for difference reasons. Idk why people like to compare when difference mounts meant to fill out difference roles You can't use Jackal in WvW and Warclaw is "shockingly" not good in PvE Also can you cross an ocean on your maxed jackal without sand portal?

Am I playing a different game? Jackal is my most used mount or 2nd most used, and I've unlocked all mounts. Besides, the solution to your problem is to not buy RNG lootboxes. Not remove unique mounts 5 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skyscale and Jackal are the Mounts who i use 90% of the time. Jackal has, in my opinion, the best Skins and has no Problem with elevated terrain like raptor. 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibson.4036 Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Agreeing on all the points regarding Jackal’s strengths. I only use raptor if I know I’m going to be crossing a bunch of large gaps, because sometimes by the second jackal port I’ve lost just enough height to miss the far ledge. Which means, for ground travel, jackal is my go-to. Plus, teleporting is cooler than leaping. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ledi.9742 Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 (edited) all mounts are creatures you sit on to move from place A to place B, just like jackal, because it too is a creature you sit on to move from place A to place B! seems very pointless to me to have so many different mounts that are so similar to jackal. therefore we should turn all of them into jackal!

Luthan.5236 Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 There are a lot of skins for other mounts that are sold diretly. And packages that contain skins only for those mounts. Yes - money from skins is important though. That is why they made fishing and skiffs. (To sell rod skins and skiff skins.. I wonder why the jade bot does not have skins lol. 😄) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daesz.2439 Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 I kinda agree on that. Jackal's only purpose is the event between amalgamate / largos and a few open world achievements. Getting warclaw (for non-wvw players) / jackal random skins might hurt. 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
