[S]uggestion: Additional Mount with Pod 316's Coloration

I’m excited about the Pod 602 mount and to see that model being put to good use. Since Pod 602 has the Pod 054 minion's coloration, my suggestion is an additional mount with the Pod 316 minion's coloration.

Being able to have either minion follow you around before switching to it in mount form would be such a nice touch—just like 9S gliding along with Pod 153 and 2B with Pod 042.

I'm thankful for the Pod 602 mount, but I know this is also possible and wanted to dream.

Thank you for reading. Please be safe & well.

I support it! Especially because it's a very low effort (model literally already done) to add yet another desirable MGP sink.

Exactly, it'd be nice to have another neat mount to spend MGP on as well.

As someone who already has everything they want from the Gold Saucer, I support more MGP sinks.

They could even add the weapons and Heavy Armor seen in the raid series to the Gold Saucer. I know it's unlikely that we'll ever see something to this extent, but they should make good use of those pre-existing models. Many are still eager to use them for glamour, and the game could certainly do with more to spend MGP on.

Probably not possible, but a pod fishing rod would be funny ^^

And yes to MGP sink !

That'd be just the push I need to pick up FSH.

Honestly I'm so hyped for this mount because it matches the minion perfectly. I wish we had more of these!

Or even mount matching weapons... Like, what if the Witch's Broom could be also a WHM/BLM weapon?

Same here. It adds an interesting layer to the Pod 054 minion (and hopefully the Pod 316 minion as well).

I'd like to see what ideas would emerge from that concept.

Suggestion. Dyable mounts

Many mounts already have alternate color schemes, but it’d be a neat feature for specific mounts released with that intention. I like the concept of certain details syncing colors with your chest gear, too.

But for now, I hope to even see both Pods represented as mounts.

100% support for more things to spend MGP on. I love the saucer, but going there when youre MGP capped just feels yucky.

Witches broom as BLM weapon is actually semi-close to the Garo weapon they received in the collab. Which is also coming back.

Agreed, and having nothing to aim for can make the Saucer feel a bit stale.

I agree with this post as well: the Pod 602 summon sound doesn’t fit.
