Please Increase Ground Mount Speed

[PlumpyMcduff]

Please. If you won't just implement it for free, perhaps give it as a passive bonus after you've hit 50 on one Job.

why? It's the exact same speed it was before. It hasn't gotten slower. The only reason it feels like that is because flying mounts are faster. But they are faster bc the new areas are so big. I see no reason to increase speed on ground mounts

Because it'd be nice.

so people would use them that's a pretty big reason.

Would sure make it less painful getting around those humongous new zones BEFORE you manage to get all the aether currents. Plus those who don't have flying yet all lose out on many hunts and FATES.

I use ground-based mounts in the old areas simply because the flying mounts look silly walking.

Sitting on Twintania while she waddles around makes me giggle almost nonstop. xD

As someone new to the game it makes sense to me to make ground mounts faster than a sprinting person

or at least have them keep their current speed but then allow them to sprint like we can at something like 1.5-2x speed.


edit: not talking about PvP balance @above because I havn't done pvp.

Hmm, last time I remember, I think the mount is still faster than a person sprinting? Just a tad faster though.

Oh no, experience the Heavy that has blighted us since 2.0!

Also sprint works better under heavy then just riding the mount. But at the same time mounts are indeed faster than sprint.

For the same reason to nerf dungeons and remove restrictions on things like tomes. Once content is demoted, it improves playebase throughput and morale to reduce restrictions.
