Anyone have a link to the dodo mount pic someone drew up a while ago?

Lol! That's a lot better mount than a chocobo! At least you don't need a ladder just to get on and off! XD

However, we won't be picking just one concept to implement. Instead we will be looking into the specifications so that we can implement both. However, as we are not yet at the stage where we can disclose when the implementation timing will be. We hope that the current chocobo implementation planned for 1.19 will hold you all over in the meantime. :)

Yay!!! Thanks for the post Bayohne! I wonder what other types of mounts they plan to add.. dragons would be BA esp for Dragoons ^^ I can't wait to raise my own choco

This is awesome news! :D

Mounts other then chocobos were implied in letter 10 fyi.

-NEW-
Mount system (name tentative)
-NEW-
Examination of mount system (including chocobos)
-NEW-
Establishment of details for mount system

I think they are just adding rental chocos for that patch.. Atleast thats what it sounds like.

I'm really enthused about pets for everyone!! ^_^ I want a magical pet for my conjurer.

That's great! I love that picture ^^

Im hoping that they add equipment for mounts/pets. would also make a good gil sink which is also needed.

Also if i had to guess, id say they will save pet classes for the first expansion pack.

I'm really looking forward to being able to raise pets and use many of them as mounts. Also love the class/job based pets idea too.
