Final Fantasy VII I know for sure cause I'm replaying that game atm, FFVIII, FFIX , XII: RW and Type Zero iirc, I might be wrong...I don't recall Sleipnir having multiple legs in any FF game but I could be remembering wrong. I know he does in classic myth, but if FF is going to base everything on classic myth appearance, then Shiva and Garuda need to be turned into men. lol
FF really just takes general lore and makes their own visual interpretations. In this case they made Sleipnir just a demonic horse.
Odin's horse has had 4 legs more times that multiple though.
Actually a while ago they said that all the primal ponies and Sleipnir would fly. Not really sure why they still can't while things like the turtle now do.

Should have bought the other mount, then.




Given that Sleipnir has flown (or glided?) in other Final Fantasy titles, it's not too silly to imagine it flying. A turtle, bear, lion, panther and hourhound, though... I still dislike the flying turtle and Fenrir just looks lazy.


In Norse mythology, Sleipnir (or "Sleipner" which is his proper name) could fly, so I'd say it would make perfect sense to turn him in to a flying mount.
Rather have that Sleipnir remains as it is. Find it one of the best and fun to ride mount in the game.
As it looks, it seems that the upcoming Pegasus mount is based more on Sleipnir, than on the current horses, so maybe that mount is the answer of SE/Yoshi for a request of some for a flying Sleipnir mount.

In the Norse myths, Sleipnir is able to fly through the air, and the gap where the world tree lies. Surprised they haven't already have this in yet.
I still use it as my only ground mount in 2.0 zones (the music & like for Nordic mythology) if they make it flight capible then "woot!" if not then I'll keep using my broom cause I hate haveing to zoom out just to see when flying anything else (broom is norm size, same as it, I only like to "have-to" zoom out for battle as that seams more a nessesity)
so u get my Vote as Yes to make it fly, but won't hold my breath as SE has let us down before
What some see as "distracted" is really "fathoming the unfathomable" - last words from an Ul'dahn Mercurial Chemister at the battle of Carteneau

Posting to support the request for the Sleipnir mount to be able to fly. It's already been pointed out that in mythology Sleipnir is capable of flight, and it has been pointed out that Sleipnir is capable of flight in other FF games. While the cash shop will never get my 24 USD for the mount, I still feel that those who own the mount, and future purchasers of the mount, should be able to use Sleipnir as a flying mount in HW areas. It's a fair, nongamebreaking, request.
