HeIIica.2945 Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 (edited) The worst mount in the game. It is toooo big!! It blocks the view, even though they made that 'kind of' see-though thingamajig, but throw together a freaking turtle party on a big boss, and that is all you see....a big mass of turtles.....and worse thing.....oooo...ooooo....the worst thing........you are fighting a big boss....really kicking boss butt....and BAM!!! Kidnapped!!! And you are in the butt end of a freaking turtle!!!! (or should I say turtlenapped?)

Ashen.2907 Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 Hate is a bit strong for me but the turtle mount brings essentially nothing to the table and can detract from the experience. Another example of the weakness of EoD as a whole. 19 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arianth Moonlight.6453 Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 (edited) and I thought I was alone... I really hate that stupid giant pile of kitten. When I returned to the game a few months ago I couldn't remember my log-in info, so I tried a with a free account. One of the first thing I noticed was that gigantic monstrosity and I was like WAT? Then while doing the first event I found, I couldn't figure out why auto-loot was not working so I just keep spamming "F" to loot everything and then this idiot literally keep standing right over me to force me to enter his stupid mount (he obviously knew new players are forced to use "F" all the time)! and that kittening kitten covering the whole screen while doing group content... 😠 Edited September 21, 2022 by Arianth Moonlight.6453 5 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teratus.2859 Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 I love the Bot killing element of it but in all honesty that is the only thing about the turtle that actually makes me want one. So far it's the only mount in Gw2 that I feel no motivation to get. And even if I did have it I probably wouldn't use it. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProtoGunner.4953 Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 I never had any issues with the mount, they are transparent and I use autoloot like everyone. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a decent bar break with a fast recharge, and it's useful in Drizzlewood where it acts like siege on fortifications, but in a lot of places it isn't useful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demon Pie.2634 Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 You hate it because it's too big? And here I keep hearing them tell me size doesn't matter. On a serious note, I love the turtle. It's my second favorite mount next to the jackal. Sure, it doesn't do much but it can: Jump higher than the griffin. Walk on the surface of a lake, ocean. Destroy buildings and gates with just one stomp (with jade core.) Breaks bar. Kill bots. Transport your friends to waypoints they don't have. Let you loot mobs without dismounting. Our next mount needs to be as big as the turtle if not bigger. I do wanna say that they need to buff it a little bit, i.e give cannon access to the driver as well since that's the best feature of it. 3 1 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it’s more bullying then a troll move because it ruins new players experience of the game. And loot bags doesn’t stay there forever. If he moves away far from the loot while you are in a seat the loot is gone (I think) and if you don’t know fast enough how to leave the seat. These players use a ingame mechanic to annoy others. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KerryTT.4792 Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 I just get tired of all the "bored Turtle" messages. You'd think they would get a little excited fighting two dragon champions..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Fey.1035 Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 I wish when you have the turtle locked you could fire the cannons yourself. I would even take a decrease in damage just so you don't have herds of turtle cannons obliterating the landscape 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides the tongue in cheek humor, I fully agree. It's great fun. Ever been to that noxious little area with all the blood crazed centaurs in Lake Doric? Have a player who hasn't been there, has no clue how to get there without dying, and has no mounts? Ta kitten!! Give them a lift! It's tremendous fun. Have someone stuck behind a rock or glitched into an odd spot...get near them, have them jump in! Some extra breakbar stomping help? Ride up and there you go. Nice way to stomp on or gather mobs as well. No, it should not be used for the entirety of a fight. That can definitely be annoying. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You both know that pressing f again while on said turtle loot all the bags around you right? I use the turtle on 2 off my accounts when doing weekly keyrun since both of them easily share the kills for hearts that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
