To be fair, the new tank mounts are obviously carrots to get tanks to help with the queue. Let's see if they will teach the old tank mounts flying after some time... Seeing how it work out with Sleipnir, I'm not going to hold my breath for it.

I wish Sleipnir get "magic" as flying. No need wings

Some sort of dark particles similar to the ones in the new Dark Knight quest would be great.

For this mount, according to the mythology, Sleipnir is supposed to be able to walk on earth, as well on the sea or in the sky. So, there's something missing (but to be fair, Sleipnir is also supposed to have eight paws :p ).

Slightly off-topic, but did he say the same about the primal ponies?

I know they are only in the game to make People Tank, but its just reskins... not worth it. im not Tanking again for that.

Yeah but armored bear mount, ARMOURED BEAR mount. Not gonna lie, I am half tempted to move warrior up on my to level list for the mount.

Back on topic, I do hope Sleipnir starts flying soon. I bought it because it meshed well with the armor I use, which due to me loving and using the High Allagan Tank Chest piece (not the dyable replica, mostly because there wasn't one when I went and got my chest piece) is predominantly red and black and other dark colors. Actually rather fitting that I look edgy as a dark knight.

hooves :P horses dont have paws.


but yea, the tank mounts and achivements were most likely top priority, i would say probably by 4.08 or 4.1 it might fly.

I'm sure once everything settles down from the launch of SB, they'll focus on the things they've mentioned that they want to put into effect. Such as flying tank mounts, and Sleipnir. Be patient. There has been a few threads on this that you could have easily found before buying it, and it'll probably say it's a flying mount when it actually becomes a flying mount in the description. But who knows!

4.1? Got to admire that optimism.
