Request pose while while on a mount.

Please let us chose how we want to be seated while wer on our mounts.

its odd that my guy just grips the reigns one handed with the other draping off the back and cross legged while seated on the dragon and mana clipper mount I'd like the option to be able to use both hands and a normal seated position we already have the change pose emote just adjust it so we can change how we sit on our rides.

Now to be off topic great expansion SE great story and content looking forward to Alexander.

i would love to see a C post with mounts, would be interesting when doing nothing :D hell even a /pose with a unique animation for the mount would be cool

like /pose chocobo, player gets off pets the chocobo then hops back on.

/pose for say the new dragon mount it rears up spreading its wings out while the player raises his fist like 'YEA!'

/pose for fat chocobo is the fat chocobo jumping eating the gysal green on the stick yourcharecter pulls it back in and ties another one on the stick.

just fun little animations

and if it is C pose most 4 legged animals could sit down. the gryphon when standing could keep its wings out, same with dragon, (i don't have any real ideas for the c-poses)

I was just thinking how I'd really like the option for different poses on mounts. Especially for mounts where it's literally just basic "hand on reigns and sitting with a slight slouch", compared to some mounts like Sleipnir, who has that awesome crossed arms look for males, the basic pose looks so boring. Options for more expressive poses or simply more riding poses would be awesome.

I would just like the option to sit side saddle. The wedding dress and some long robes clip horribly through mounts sitting the usual way.

OMG! This soo much! I was literally opening this topic specifically to ask for side-saddle. It would be so much nicer to ride my unicorn side-saddle if only because it's a lot more 'ladylike' in a dress. It'll probably never happen, but that won't destroy my dreams <3

I know for my Bomb Palanquin I'd love to see a new pose. Not exactly the most fun to use when your character is gripping the chain like she is going to fall off.

This is a good suggestion. There are lots of unique poses that races get depending on mount (lalafell especially) so adding a /changepose for everyone on each different mount would be quite the laundry list, but I think everyone would love it. They could start with poses on chocobos, then maybe the horses, then the various special mounts.

I'm glad to see there are people who agree on this it kinda ruins the epicness of some of the cs of when your on a mount in them. Especially the last few at the end.

Honestly as small as it is, i love the idea hopefully it's something for our future.

Roll Roegaydn. Look good no matter what pose you are in. (Unicorns excluded)

Seconded. I'd also like for the side saddle option to be unisex -- male robes and skirts clip just as much as female ones. And since it's an optional pose, those guys who don't want to use it wouldn't have to. Same with those elezen and hyur (I think those are the races with side saddle, currently) ladies who don't wear robes or skirts or dresses and don't want to look like they're constantly slipping off their unicorn's back... They should also be provided the option to sit astride.

This looks so absurd.

Bumping this, considering females like Au Ra and Miqo'te sit side saddle on the ceremony chocobo - why can we not do the same on Kirin, and the horses?


Come on DEV team :)

I would disagree heavily with that statement

I would love this so much. I'm mad that I can't sit with both legs to the side on any of the ponies as a miqote and Au Ra, but Hyur could. > >

Elezen ladies can ride side-saddle too. ;)

I want to be able to draw my lance while riding a dragon!

This reminds me of an old spice comercial, i can see all the /hildy on horseback now.

I would also like to ride with weapon in hand. That would look badass. Like charging into battle without hesitation.

Been thinking about this and I was wondering about this whole side saddle position. Just thinking about it, and the relative position of limbs etc, it kind of seems that females of the shorter races would be even more likely to ride side saddle than the Amazonian Hyur Highlander females and Elezen. I must admit I find it really odd that all female characters do not have the option to ride side saddle on mounts that would normally be ridden either astride or side saddle - unicorns, ponies/hosts, Chocobos, and perhaps others.

Please SE, give all female characters the option to chose to sit sidesaddle or astride such mounts.

Does riding side saddle provide more comfort for the rider? I've never ridden a horse, let alone ridden one in that position so I can't comment on that, but from my minute of Google all I can see is that it was more elegant to ride like that, and would allow them to ride while wearing elegant clothing such as long dresses (I'd guess it would be easier on a Lalafell though). I don't imagine it would be very practical to ride side saddle on a chocobo though, but I'd say riding a chocobo would be as practical as riding an emu either way. If they do add this, I'd hope it's a permanent animation change and not similar to /cpose where they switch into it awkwardly.

I'd love to be able to ride the Ahriman and ADS mount the same way a Lalafell "rides" theirs

I'd love to sit sidesaddle on more mounts.

...Please give all characters that option, not just female characters. A man in a robe looks just as silly sitting astride a mount as a woman would, and apart from a few pieces (spring skirt/dress, bridesmaid's dress, wedding outfit), I believe we have access to all the "mount-injuring" skirts and robes ^^;
And considering side-saddle riding was (afaik) "invented" to make riding possible while wearing skirts, instead of having to resort to litters or carriages, it makes equal sense to let guys in robes utilize it ^^;

Was coming to say just this. Will just quote it instead.
I have the ADS mount and want to ride it like this -so much-.

Fine with me, I don't see why that would be a p[roblem for anyone, except for the usual gender bias in the real world. If guys in robes want to do it, great, go for it. I'd just like for Kosmos to be able to ride in a more elegant fashion than is currently the case.

I agree, all female characters should have the option to ride side-saddle so our dresses and long robes don't clip. Miq/Aur are not more likely to ride that way than Elezens though since Elezens are by far more elegant and cultured (and stuck up). Miq/Aur are more (or equally) likely to ride SS compared to femroes, however.

Yes, because males never wear long robes or skirts in this game. :| I'd ride sidesaddle in a heartbeat whenever I wear a skirt/robe to avoid cutting my mount in half.

...so instead you're giving the impression that you want side-saddle to be Female Exclusive because who cares about the other half of the gamers? Nice.
