Sleipnir Useless in Heavensward?

[Shougun]

Now really, if there is a horse who SHOULD fly that's Sleipnir!

Right! :P

Reading the Sleipnir doesn't/shouldn't fly comments and I'm going, b-b-but he does fly... As you said if any horse should fly, it should be Sleipnir.

As others have stated though, it was said all primal horses will fly at some point but likely not right away (same with a few other 1.0/2.0 mounts that will be made flying at a later date). Sleipnir is a primal mount, and to support that in terms of dev speech, when they said they will make the primal mounts play their theme music guess who also got their theme music added. Sleipnir~

wondering when they announce the flying goobbue mount.

YoshiP already stated they might make it fly if enough demand for it. It was in one of the live letters iirc. So look forward to it[tm].

So you are mad because you bought a cash shop item and then want it to fly just because the primal ponies get flight at some point in time during HW? Seriously? I mean, I know we are all kinda bored and all but this just seems petty.

Did you even read the post before making such comment? I made it clear I'm not suggesting it flies.

In fact I'm not mad, I'm very chilled. It was a simple question if there will be any other use of the mount in HW.

As someone who has Sleipnir....I'm fine with it not flying or faster >.>...I'll still ride him and his epic walk emote. Not everyone gets their enjoyment crossing the lands as fast as possible. I love just walking on my mount surrounded by the glorious scenery.

I will end this right now....who is going to use anything else but the Dragon mount once we finish the main story.....???? Anyone???? I will be using my Dragon and hopefully it has an action bar and we can swoop down and breath fire and scare the shi% out of players on the ground....LOL

I use my companion to level him up and hopefully teach him new skills.

Didn't people pay an extra 20$ for the Coeurl mount for CE ARR? That mount isn't going to fly (and if it does I'll be really surprised 'cause we have Coeurls as mobs in ARR and they definitely can't fly). I don't see them complaining.

Primal Ponies can fly? o.O thats news to me..but seeing as how Sleipnir is considered a primal mount (seeing as how it plays Odin's Theme) I'm going to assume it will be able to fly..maybe not right of the bat in 3.0 since Yoshi and friends have mentioned that older mounts like the Ahriman will be able to fly in a later patch (something like 3.1 or 3.2) and not as soon as Heavensward launches.

18 days for early access!...i'm dieing over here waiting x.x

"Ahriman can fly in a later patch"
please, dont excite me like this

I hope Sleiphir won't fly, that is one heavy-assed pony. You'll need more than cake to entice him off the ground.

Sleipnir is able to fly

FFIX example :P

If you cry hard enough, the force of your tears will propel you in the air, making your Sleipnir fly.
