Mount Aggregator

This might have been brought up before but just gonna make it a quick formal suggestion.

Add a item that allow you to take the properties of a mount, and infuse them into the appearance of another. Would give a lot more variety then seeing 50% of the people using Rune Disk everywhere. As they could then turn their favorite mounts into the same speed as the disk.

As for the crossing water and 2 player mount, those should not be passed on as the properties, only the speed.

For example, I love the Infernal Wolf Spider mount, and would gladly consume my rune disk in order to give this mount 10% greater speed so it can be used in more practical cases like siege war. However a Spider carrying 2 people or crossing water would look weird, for for this suggestion have mount aggregators only transfer speed.

Wouldn't really be an aggregator then. How about something used like the Golden Repair Hammer. Consumed on use and adds speed to the mount. Magic Light Hooves lol.

But then you would be able to make a Rune Disk 10% faster as well, rendering my spider or any other 65% mount useless once again ^.^

If they also added a speed cap on the mounts themselves that would work as well, but then that is 2 things to change rather just adding 1 item

Why not make a type of wardrobe but for mounts.

To help justify the cost, to add it to the wardrobe would cost the same as the mounts price and you must own the mount.

This means, you buy the same mount two times if you want that skin in the wardrobe.

Not sure how much time coding wise that would take, but it could help profits in the long run.

With only the skin being transferred, you don't have to worry about speed/ water and etc.

what he wanted transferred was the speed not the skin.

Tbh, to me the mounts should be purely aesthethic. Should all be the same speed. Only have the regular special fly on water/multiple seats depending on the mount.

Otherwise there's very little point to have slow mounts ingame UNLESS they went on sale half price for happy hour. Barely get to use them as they provide nothing other than a different look. I'm looking at all those 65% mounts.

What he wants is variety vs everyone just using the same rune disk.

whether you transfer speed or just look, but give the same end result.

You can transfer a rune disk speed to a bear mount or you can transfer the bear mount skin to a rune disk and get the same results.

no, cuz then you'll have flying bears. We want 75% speed spiders and stuff that don't fly above water.

LMAO flying bears. :phatgrin:

They could just add mount skins in the IS, like we have costumes. The skins would obviously cost a lot less, but they won't change the properties of the mount they are being put on, just the appearance. Also maybe take suggestions from players what skins they would like to see in game, or new mounts for that matter. I would love to ride around sitting inside a Tatha mount.

Also on the note of mounts. CAN WE PLEASE HAVE A 10 PERSON MOUNT, THE DRAGON BUS IS SOOOOO LAST YEAR.
