    Sleipnir gonna be able to fly?

    This was brought up over at reddit and thought it should be brought up here as well. I mean the thing does cost 25 bucks and in all of Sleipnirs FF lore he can fly... so devs, any plans on the table to gift this bad boy with flight? Y'all did just go through a nice round of giving previous mounts the ability to fly, kinda surprised this one fell through the cracks.

    He shouldn't even fly, he should just run through the sky on a trail of lightning, every so often punctuated by thundercracks.

    In Mythology Sleipnir ran on wind it's self. So maybe make like some kind of breeze graphic.

    Make it so he runs on the Aether in the sky ore something. I do love how the kikrin got wings though. Even though like Slepnir it didn't need them due to literally running through the sky.

    I'm surprised none of the primal mounts can fly. I mean Garuda's horse could easily fly being wind.. Ifrit could use some firey animation, Titan could have like stone-like rock animations moving across, just use the elements. I think it could work! Let the pony fly!!!

    This would be cool I'm actually quite surprised they haven't already added a flying mount to the store page. Especially after that big update to it!

    Probably because it gives more of a reason to get all of them, so you eventually get a flying mount. Atleast that might be the idea. Or maybe it is now, with the intention to give them flyability later.

    I hope the primal mounts don't get flying. It kind of detracts from the purpose of getting Kirin and they're pretty ugly for the most part

    Understandable but I don't see why Nightmare doesn't fly its really the only mount who's drop rate hasn't been increased. It doesn't even have its own theme.
