Norse Mythology aside I meant the 6 Legged Sleipnir we have come to know in the series.

Don't really like horses they all look stupid on Roegadyn wish the horses were more muscular/heavy in their torso

Anyway, my bewilderment aside, nice little video.

thanks so much :3! Please sub for moreee! :)

Around $25 is about what I expected the price tag to be for the mount, as that is how much Blizzard charges for vanity mounts in WoW. However, as much as I may want the mount, my budget doesn't have THAT much wiggle room.

Nice video! Thanks for posting. I wish it didn't bother me so much that Sleipnir on this game is four legged instead of the six legged one I loved in previous games though. It just doesn't feel like Sleipnir.

It really should have its own theme. Every mount should have a different tune while riding

Waaay before Cata. Sparkle pony, brah.

I think the mount looks pretty cool.

Is it worth the $24? No way at all.

I probably would have been interested in buying it if it was something like $5-$8. That's a much more reasonable price for something that is merely an aesthetic mount with no other bonuses.
It's not as if it provides a faster means of travel that would justify a larger price tag. No, it's only a visual difference and hardly worth the price tag given to it.

I obviously won't be purchasing it anytime soon, or at all if the price tag never drops to something reasonable.

Also, minions should only run $2 a piece given they are such a minor thing already, and so incredibly small and purely vanity. There's no point in paying more for something so miniscule.

SE would be selling a lot more of these had they decided to go with more reasonable pricing.

I'll support A Realm Reborn by continuing my subscription, but you won't see me wasting real money on overpriced vanity items. It's just not smart.

Had every person who bought this mount sent it to me instead, I probably could have paid off my student loan debt.

Need more sparkle pony in my life.

I don't mind the option to buy items, afterall its up to you if you want to commit - but they definitely need a Crysta option. I have 2600 sitting doing nothing from the days of XI.
