Perfect! The broom animation is also a nice touch. I'm surprised it didn't have it to begin with.

FINALLY! LOL

Thank you for the relink, Serilda. Also a big thank you to SE for these 2 changes! (Especially the art/animation team!) :3

The purple aura remind me of Ascians. Hopefully it will look great in-game!

Well hot damn guys, it's finally happening! I'm so excited. I just bought my Sleipnir a few weeks ago with the sale, I told myself I wouldn't buy him until he flies but.. I couldn't resist. I just love the mount so much. I'm just so happy they are finally keeping their word on making him fly.

FINALLY

Looks like my favourite mount gets to see life outside ARR. :D

I really want this mount but the two things holding me back were that it can't fly (for the price, that's ridiculous) and that females don't sit like a bamf on it with their arms crossed. Still kind of sad about the second one... But now I'm tempted....

Some do, it's race-specific, not gender.

Oh, really? o: I saw that male miqote cross their arms but females don't so I just assumed it was gender-based. Which females cross their arms?

When pigs fly

Which Sleipnir's body shape resembles, amusingly enough
