Canis.7451 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Hi there.Just dropping in to wonder if, as the title suggests, mount skins (now/in the future) have the chance of also being sold individually alongside their bundle. From what I can tell right now (unless I am blind), the only option with the Spooky mounts is to buy all of them-- which is okay, but I don't particularly care for the Springer or the Skimmer and could go without buying the skins for them. Somehow I have a feeling the intention is to have all of them bundled together so you have to get all of them or you get none of them, but I figured I'd see if the possibility was out there anyways haha, or if anyone else was also curious if ANET would potentially implement this down the line.

ROMANG.1903 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Arenanet obviously didn't make this because they liked haloween or the mount system. They did this for money.1) They purposedly made a poor work on the original mounts, giving us only one dye channel.2) They force us to buy all 5 of them if we want one of the skins.I'd pay for the spooky mounts if the original were more dyable, I really would. But right now, don't count on my money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Witch of Doom.5739 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 I only wanted one or two of the spooky mount skins, but then I saw where someone dyed all the channels black, so that looks really cool and now I'll get the package. Do wish they were sold separately however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Healix.5819 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 1600 gems probably is the individual price, considering $20-$30 is the typical price for mounts in other MMOs. These ones were just a cheap retexture, so they bundled them together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustTrogdor.7892 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Gotta drain as much as possible of the 4k gems from the people that bought Ultimate and where holding on to them for mount skins. Quick, large gem amount, novelty being the first mount skins, plus impulse buy will do that. Seems pretty smart to me. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRuin.9740 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 If they don't, I won't be buying any. Which isn't really a problem, just cosmetics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This morning, first time I checked, it took 115g to get 500.Intended or not, a lot more people are buying gems with gold than selling to get gold, for the first time in a few weeks.FYI 115g is roughly as high as it usually has gotten the last year or two, with more than a few spikes of 120-125g and the occasional 140gish.
