    You obviously are not getting where I'm coming from, IDC if ppl get this mount by all means have a freakin blast with it. My point was this was something we from 1.0 were told was a gift for playing. All I'm getting at is SE needs to stop saying stuff like "oh this is unique just for you blah blah blah" When obviously it wasn't, the goobbue mount (which is clear to me now) was just a ploy to try to squeeze a little more money out of players during 1.0...
    I think you're just stubborn. Take that any way you want. Also, good morning Columbo! Took a while to realise SE isn't making these games out of the kindness of their hearts but cause it makes them good money. Again, we were never promised a Goobbue mount won't be obtainable again.

    I just feel a bit poked harder than necessary (don't want to say slapped) with an addition of that slightly adjusted Goobbue. People back then used them to defend our cities and I won't be able to forget this that easily.
    Plus, if I am not mistaken then story-wise it was only the Wandering Minstrel who was able to / knew how to tame Goobbue so you could ride them. (Yet?!) He isn't in 2.0 so how will they put this? Letting the Sylphs being able to do this in the first place as if the Minstrel learned from them? :/ (I am assuming that you get the new Goobbue from the Sylph daily quests.)
    I see what you mean but, I'm afraid that lore gets thrown out the window (or at least bent to the extremes) in front of money and money is what the new Goobbue mount is supposed to generate, so to speak. Their "clever" solution here was to give this Goobbue flowers on the head instead of a carpet, in order to keep the 1.0 players distinct (in a considerably smaller way) from the ones with the new Goobbue, who will now feel a bit more satisfied for being able to ride this monster, albeit a lil different, like the 1.0 players can.
