Mount Sprint

[Fluffernuff]

Honestly, ground mounts need more than just speed. I would actually like to see mount run speed be the same as flight speed. at bare minimum.

However, even if ground mounts were faster, there is still a rather large elephant in the room preventing their viability: That giant cliff face in your way.


However, we have some mounts that have hotkey-used abilities. the magitek armor's blaster and the moogle mount "seed" are examples. What I personally would propose is that ground mounts have abilities that allow them to traverse different terrain. An example being the collector's coeurl. Why don't we give it a skill that will allow it to bound high into the air that would allow it to scale cliffs, for example.

It's not foolproof, sure. Flying would be alot simpler and faster than having a cat jump up on a bunch of tiny ledges. It's really hard to make land travel better than flight. Flight is not only more convenient, but just plain faster..
