As happy as I am that the primal mounts will get their respective themes, because now I actually want to farm Ramuh Extreme, the Steps nerf is... overkill. Along with Pharos and Thornmarch HM, I'm sure it'll be a total joke now.

Patch 2.58: Due to the incompetancy of the Grand Companies, Ishgard is no longer joining the Eorzean Alliance. Heavensward will be delayed 6 months to reflect this change.

I didn't realize Sleipnir is included in their "primal horse" list, I mean.. It is.. but I suppose I just didn't connect them mentally due to how you get him.

I guess that means they will probably intend to make him fly too, since they said primal mounts will fly.

I don't recall them saying that all Primal Mounts will fly, only that Kirin will be able to fly.

During Letter from the Producer LIVE Part XX, Yoshida mentioned that while it won't be ready at the launch of Heavensward, we do plan on making it so existing mounts become flying mounts, and this includes Ahriman, Kirin, Bomb Palanquin, and Logistics System. In order to make this happen, both takeoff and landing animations will have to be created for each mount, so this will be a gradual process. You can expect to fly with each one eventually though, so keep your eyes peeled for more information in the future!
