It's just a mount, Yoshi said right now the chocobos are the only thing that you will be seeing them fight alongside you unless your a arcanist/summoner.
You can't be in a chocobo, I said you'd only be seeing chocobos fight alongside you, nothing about Magitech Armor...
Its said that you sill sit on top of the magitek armor not ride inside of it. This would be making the distinction it is only a mount and not a armor to fight in.
I'm pretty sure Yoshi-P said they'll make specific zones to use Magitek Armor Mounts in combat. I know its somewhere in the forum, just lazy to look. I bet 1mil gil on it.
I want to shoot Lazar beams from mine.
I dunno about magitek mounts but i'm fairly certain he said that about chocobo mounted combat.
edit: here it is.

Naaa, even Andrien, agrees that yoshi said something along what I'm saying. OK, for fun, lets say yoshi p did say it.
How would you like it to work? If it dies, would you die as well? Or you can eject before hand with half health, also having to repair it before use again.
My Magitek armor will be a shark with a laser beam mounted on the head. It can go on land AND on water. And in lava too.
