What kind of new mounts would you like to see added to the game?

[Plague.6723]

Froggy skin for my favorite Springer. I'll accept toad as well.

[TexZero.7910]

Gorilla. Either toss people into battle or scale walls.

This is better than the day my firstborn son was birthed. How was this created??

@Samnang.1879 said:anything but this one in this video

That's disgusting.

I have yet to see a horse in this game, so I doubt it will happen.

[castlemanic.3198]

I know it'll never happen, there's no reason why it would happen, but please, aurene as a mount with a fire breath attack.

Also something underwater, dont know what it could be however.

[Falcord.3608]

I would only like a new mount if it has a distinct role, clearly differentiated from the ones we have.

So to that end, here is one possibility, with no associated flavor/theme:

Exploration mount: Standard running speed (around jackal's).

• Ability: Root yourself in place and start a 10 second astral travel. During it, you can move extremely fast and fly around in any direction, but after the 10 seconds or when you press the ability again, you are yanked back. During astral travel you can't interact or attack, just observe. This would be a good mount to survey surrounding areas, search for nodes, etc.
• Mastery: Gain another ability to create a "shadowstep origin", lasting for up to 2 minutes. If you press it again, you can come back to it. If killed by enemies or fall damage, you get two seconds of grace period to press it. Useful for dangerous exploration / jumping off cliffs to see what's on the bottom, etc.

im waiting for my Necromancer Skeleton/Abomination Monster Mount................

[maddoctor.2738]

A giant jellyfish mount that you ride to the depths of the unending ocean

[Devata.6589]

Mounts that I can catch in the open world, or breed, or create with a craft.

[Ayakaru.6583]

seeing quaggans as a mount would be nearly enough for me to quit gw2 forever. Everytime a quaggan comes into play, I cringe a little inside, and consider any story that contains quaggans 'non canon'.

That said, I do want an underwater mount for faster swimming, but I'm thinking more of a squid, I'd originally want a manta-ray, but the sorry sads on the forum would probably complain that it's a ripoff of the skimmer....

as for land mounts, I'd love for the further traversion of the desolation to see the Junundu Wurms (I'm already infuriated anet removed the junundu wurms, since they were supposed to be the sulphur treaders)

[TheUndefined.1720]

Aside from mount SKINS, - none. I think when you get really loosey goosey with mounts, you totally devalue the mounts that have been added.

Honestly, I don't want to delete 250g for a very limited flying mount then in a couple years see there's been a real flying mount added in an expansion. Mounts that have been added I think were very well balanced within the world of Tyria and should remain like that. Adding more mounts would take away from the balance .

[Doam.8305]

Raptor = Choco.. I mean MoaSkimmer= HoverbikeGriffon = WyvernJackal = Sand LionSpringer = Frog/Toad

However as someone has stated racial mounts would be best however one would have to give a reason for the Jackals new skin to use sandportalsEdit: Though this is just for cash shop skins and as stated in many posts before underwater mounts would be the next best route to go however they'd need to fill in the gaps in underwater. Also dedicated WvW mounts would be nice too as in dedicated I mean desert borderlands we don't need mounts in alpine because the spacing is fine and a roamer getting a camp would be hit with a zerg rushing in on mounted speed thus nothing would ever get capped.

[Cobrakon.3108]

I think they already did a good job with variety for the mounts, but.....I would really like to see non living advanced technology type of mounts. Maybe a Charr style one and an Asura Style one.

[Dante.1763]

Hopefully they dont add more, and instead in LW4 add /other/ masteries that can further enhance gameplay, both in the areas they go to, and outside of them, as for skins, a dragon skin for the gryphon(so long as its not aurene) would be neat to see.

I thought I could see what forum people are doing after 4 weeks of only reddit. The first thing I see is this post with this video. This is disturbing. I will never come back to the forum.

[Neural.1824]

Underwater:-Seahorse, Dolphin, Shark, Arawana.

Land:-Unicorn, Pegasus, other mythical equine creature, spider, tarantula, Smokescale

Both:-Hermit Crab, turtle (no speed bonus, but same health pool as Korritkir the Chucker), Sea Otter, frog/toad

[RavenRecoil.6103]

I know they are going to add mounts skins on gem store. They did it with gliders. My question is will it be different looks for the mount? Like a raptor with armor head to tail OR skin that changes it from a raptor to a horse or what ever.I hope they will do completely different skins and not just a different armor on our raptor.

[rapthorne.7345]

From what we have now there only seems one logical way to progress.

Full flight on a dragon.

I think LS4 will see us learning to fly with Aurene, especially given the end of PoF and what we learn

[Biermeister.4678]

A Skritt mount that stops at all nodes and chests

[Embered.5089]

I want a big cat mount, specifically a lioness.but i also don't want any more mounts. i want mount skins. then i can just have a blinky be a cat.

[Jahroots.6791]

I feel like the skimmer should have been usable underwater, beyond that I just want skins. Or maybe one 'prestige' mount that has each of the other mounts' special abilites.

[DietPepsi.4371]

I would really enjoy an underwater mount/vehicle, or dedicated surface water mount/vehicle (not floating above the water). Someone else mentioned a multi passenger mount, that would be pretty fun.I too would like some vehicle mounts/skins, such as a skin for the Skimmer that makes it into a Charr quadcopter or something, definitely some Charr themed vehicle skins.If they could find some way to get the Charr car/tank in there I'd be the happiest cat in all of tyria ( I guess the attack skill would be the cannon, then dismount), and having asura players riding on my own back, now I think about it would actually be pretty cool.

idk lol... i know nothing about computers.../programming

[Samnang.1879]

I would like to see non-animal mounts like the dune roller in wvw... or chariot or something lmao

[Pixlboy.5296]

Fern houndMorderm wyvernMordrem guard mountOr some fungi mount

All of the above can be also done as skins, not especially new mounts.

Basically everything that would fit Sylvari because like always we need more. Everything fits other races in certain ways, but Sylvari unique plant style is like always neglected (see armor)
