Some of us should have elephants by now. Got mine last night. And I like when it tramples on things.

Long as people in here keep their pants on...
I'd rather have the white Griffin :/
Honestly, some mounts just should not fly. It's pretty dumb seeing elephants flying as is, but it doesn't even flap it's ears! That animation alone would have kept me quiet. But it's not Dumbo, it's just dumb!
Sorry but I think every mount should fly in some way, since flying is pretty much needed now. (They don't need to update all the old ones that don't, however) Though they should have made this look a little better when it is. I still love it, it's an elephant.
I do like the flavor text though that explains HOW it can fly (they put a flying carpet on it) instead of just going "eh it's a magic creature, it can".
There is no mechanism for it's ability to fly. Not even a magic aura or something showing its flying due to magic. It just suddenly shoots up into the sky and starts stomping around. I dunno its a neat looking mount, but that one inconsistency throws me off wanting to use it. I'm really looking forward to the bird mount at rank 8.
Just as crazy as riding a cloud.
I'm yet to get my elephant today, it will be fun playing stampedes with them during hunts!...
It's sad thought, that SE makes all beast tribe mounts incredibly plain, they should give them some unique special effects like different types of glowing colors plus particles when they are flying, just like the Primal falcons from Heavensward!...
Yeah i too when first doing a quest with the mount was like ... this is kind of lame a flying elephant, lol
i still will be getting the mount though
How do you get one?
I'd rather have a flying Goobbue
I'm a little bitter that we still don't have the ability to fly on the ARR Primal mounts...but things like the turtle and elephant mount can fly...
That title would mean something completely different where I come from. O_O
I agree with that. At least make it look like it can fly somehow and not just have it walk on nothing. And the carpet being the reason is just bad too since it does not even do something..And I am also still not sure why our ponies cant fly...I mean now the war horses are able to fly but not the primal ones? Those are at least full of primal aether..
Edit: Finally got my elephant...well I had to laugh a bit after seeing it flying..it looks just so bad, especially when it stops running and just glide through the sky. Can we at least have a bit more work done for such mounts? Maybe some better animations? Or have the carpet fly under its feet, that at least would be funny in a good way.
