can we get rid of.....!!!

I think it's more the fact that you have to stand still first then press the button. Rather than just start moving and simply transition into a speed up, you stop dead, press button then move again. It can get particularly frustrating if you have a bit of lag, where sometimes you start moving too soon and it cancels your mount cast.

I loved the instant mount cast option when it was added to their legacy system in SWTOR. The flow of movement from exiting combat is wonderful. Its like leaping on to your steed like some kind of boss whilst moving. Destiny 2 has it also and that is a must to get to the next open world target as the maps are large and if hunt trains are present you need to get their asap to get credit.

The flow is so nice that once experienced you wish it was a thing across all games where you can use a vehicle/creature to traverse maps without having to come to a complete stop before getting on.

...many other MMO that i play just has it instant summon for player...

Which games? Because all the serious games have cast time on mounts.

By serious I mean games that are not F2P P2W, and have paid subscriptions.

The two games mentioned prior in this thread are both Pay to Win games, sadly both started out as good MMOs but became Pay to Win trash. No, I do not want pay to win trash to hit FFXIV.

Assuming it's not another spaghetti code issue, I'd certainly appreciate if they made it like SWTOR where there's still a cast timer, but you can move while doing it.

If they do end up taking it out, I hope they still leave it in for PVP.
Being able to mount/dismount in an instant would make invalidate sprint and make chasing people much less fun.

I don't mind that calling your mount isn't instant, but I do think it could be just a little bit faster, like half a second or so. The cast time for mounts is a bit too long, but fine otherwise.

I also have mount and sprint together in a macro on R3, and if mount didn't have to cast time, I probably couldn't choose to sprint anymore when both are available.

I wish we could talk to NPCs without dismounting more than it being instant, but both would be nice.

Where do you think your mount is coming from?
You just have a bag of whistles to call them. They can't just appear instantaneously. That would break causality!

As many have said, way too much confirmation. What I'd do is slice off much of the "are you sure, that you're sure, really really sure??? stuff as suggested. The agony of dispatching retainers is one place where more clicks can be eliminated that need to be used to dispatch. The solution is a single special window - "Undo previous transaction," valid for all but MB interactions, for a minute or so. MB is trickier if the seller pounces on his proceeds instantly, but likely could be done with a delay or two... or maybe just left as is. By and large, however, just letting us undo the unfortunate mindless click would take care of most exhausted driver flubs. It is there now in crafting, in a way, with "trial synthesis." However it is fixed, getting rid of many of the useless clicks in the game gets my click.

I freaking hate topics that clickbait you in

"Guys we need to talk..."

"about Raid shadow legends!"

for gods sakes just say what u need to say in topic

I don’t really notice the cast time. I mean, have you seen combat? Compared to that, mounts are near-instant.
