Mounts that go well with long skirts?

[tdb]

I'd like to hear some suggestions for mounts that work well with long skirts, dresses, coats etc. Any mount where you sit astride causes the skirt to stretch unnaturally and also clip into the mount. Unfortunately that covers a lot of the mounts in the game. So far I have the following:

Magitek armor
Midgardsormr
Manacutter
Yol

These are all rather large though. The manacutter also is a bit weird in zones where you can't fly. The Falcon airship mount is more compact and has wheels but it's so tight that many skirts clip through the edges or bottom.

The draught chocobo passenger seat works well, being a sidesaddle, but I'm not aware of a single-rider chocobo or other animal mount with a similar sitting position.

The cloud mount I've seen some people use would be awesome but unfortunately it was a limited-time promotion.

Some races - I think female elezen and female midlanders - will sit sidesaddle on all of the primal-ponies, aswell as the unicorn.

For other races I could see the following work well:

Archon Throne (flying chair that you can buy for 750k MGP)
The two Broken Heart chairs (from this years valentines event, they'll be back in the mogstation next feburary, most likely)
Flying Chair (Crafted, using some seeds you need to crossbreed)
Mikoshi (from the Namazu Beast Tribe once you completed all quests and have some Koban left)
all the "System"-Mounts that you get from various PvP-achievments (those glowing CPU-balls)
The Ahriman and the Disembodied Head (needs PotD)
Bomb Palanquin (from the Cobold Beast Tribe)
Adamantoise (200k MGP)

...since the sitting animation varies from race to race and between genders, some of those might work better than others for each character. I'd expect all the flying chairs to work well enough for each race/gender, aswell as the Mikoshi (since you're standing on that). I know that the Bomb Palanquin can be weird for certain race/gender combinations (it brings back painful flashbacks of being a male elezen - they sport a fantastic example of manspreading on that thing - looks horrible, but looks especially horrible with coats/skirts), but afaik female Mi'qote got a decent sitting position for it!

Also the egg mount. With the usual some races / genders have a horrid position on it, but it shouldn't look bad with long skirts.

I would have to study the kapour (SP?) mount from the GS.

The Behemoth mount (old veteran reward, now on the achievement vendor) could work. Characters sit on a chair on its back.
The Magitek Death Claw (also on the achievement vendor) won't clip as it dangles the character below it.

The Magitek Death Claw is my favorite of the mounts suggested so far. It has no clipping problems, is reasonably compact and not too flashy and makes sense both flying and on the ground. It's a bit physically inaccurate in steep ascents and descents though, as the character looks way too stiff, but that doesn't bother too much when viewing from behind.

Large mounts like Midgardsormr, Behemoth and Adamantoise usually offer a decent sitting position thanks to being too large to be sat astride, but their hugeness attribute restricts the places they can reasonably be used. They are best in open areas but don't work so well with smaller corridors or archways where they bang my character's head against the ceiling.

@Shadygrove do you mean the Eggshilaration System available on the Mog Station? From the picture it looks like it would stretch the skirt quite a bit and probably have clipping issues on the backside. For the other one it's spelled Korpokkur.

Miqo’te on the Egg mount sit as if they will slip off any minute, their hands clinging to it for dear life. Incredibly amusing, but probably not the best suggestion for long skirts unless you are in the mood for some comedy.

The Korpokkur's stem clips it.

Yes. I look horrid riding it but it doesn't clip. Panty shot though.

The Korpokkur's stem clips it.

I saw that when I checked.

All of the HW ex primal birds work well and aren't too big (you can try the falcon porters in SB, since they use the same model).
Then there is the Sanuwa mount from the Vanu Vanu beast tribe and the Syldra from SB CE. But while moving with these mounts the wind will stretch the skirt and it may clip (especially on the Syldra).

[Shadygrove]

Typhon is anther doesn't clip but panty shot one.
