Mount & Barding Wish List

[Morningstar1337]

But then, given lore wise the Syndicate (specifically, Lolorito) are hellbent on holding back any kind of transport innovation that he himself cannot make money out of or would otherwise compete against his aetheryte network income and chocobo carriage services, I wouldn't be surprised if Lolorito would deliberately conspire to prevent bicycles becoming commonplace in Eorzea....

Or maybe I'm just overthinking this too much!

That's a little bit paranoid considering the instant long-distance teleportation appeal of Aetherytes, not to mention that the daring Bicycle inventor here would need some form of investment to get his ieda off the ground. Plus if he's so keen on maintaining a monopoly, with Cid and the Ironworks still in business, he's need more work on his plans.

the "paladin" barding doesnt really reseble pld at all, its basically the big hulky tank metal amour that takes up multiple gear slots and is unafiliated with any class.

what id like: some proper armour for my griffin, bright white plate armour with a beutiful bright golden trim, to match the style of the pld excalibur zodiac weapon / shield combo

Mount/Barding Name:

Thavnairian Carpet

What is it? How would it be Obtained?

Two seated mount, Thavnairia NPC/expansion?

Inspiration for this mount?

"I can show you the world~"

How would it fit into the FFXIV universe?

Suits Thavnairia IMO, plus we have no double seat mounts available in the base game (sad Middy wasn't, given the artwork had three people riding him...), they're all from paying extra/option campaigns... A magic carpet is also something that can easily transition from regular to flying mount, unlike most of the mounts that are randomly given flying...

Mount: Dreadnought
How can it be obtained?: Random drop from Fractual Continum (Can never spell it, sorry)

Inspiration for the mount?: You can pilot one in Final Fantasy XIII iirc
How would it fit in XIV's universe?: They are clockwork constructs in this game created by the allagans
Added Features: Wrecking Ball, like the Final Fantasy VI magitek armor you can use this move as an effect.

I just really love these guys for some reason. I don't know why.
Their Record Keeper sprite is awesome too

[Laerune]

Instead of mount, I want the option to carry other players. Lalafell and Hyur already have one ingame, since Rabbie can carry Nanamo.

[Antonio_Xul]

If there are any mounts from in game creatures I would want would be Sphinx, Yeti, Vinegaroon, Endymion, Bandersnatch, Flying Octopus (can't remember name) & Blood Dragon. All obtainable through quests.

I'd enjoy some DoH and DoL themed barding for my chocobo. The DoH looking like the merchant-chocobo barding you see in the open world, but also with all kinds of DoL tools strapped to the saddle and boxes and boxes and crates all stacked on the choco posterior (all those mats for crafting need to go somewhere X_x ) (Imagine something like the holiday barding, where the gifts are all stacked)

DoH also similiar: a pack-mule appearance barding, with sledgehammers, pickaxes, scythes, a bag of veggies/greens and a bag of (gold) ore all hanging from the saddle. a lantern strapped to the barding girdle too (Miner AF reference), and long feather/flower tucked somewhere on barding like the head or the saddle (botanist af)
