The SDS Fenrir should be a tandem/two-person mount

[YojimboM]

Given the $30 price point to purchase it (or a $150 Fanfest ticket), it being a fairly large mount and having ample room for a second person to just ride on the back, I feel like it should really be a tandem mount. The other two $30 mounts are also two-person.

From a value point, it's pretty expensive for a mount that doesn't haven't a unique flying or underwater animation, without the two-person functionality that the others have.

Plus, it would be a lot of fun to share it with a friend, I have lots of good memories from riding motorcycles with friends.

It has garunteed mount speed +1 in all areas if you haven't increased the speed at all,
This includes new areas in shadow bringer.

Id say its fair for its Value compared to fat moogle and indigo whale

to be fair they made the stream free and in exchange put the stuff on mogstation to compensate for the lost revenue.
It's kind of a deal in that sense. Only pay for it if you want it and get all 3 streams with only needing to buy it once or even not at all

and if you went to fanfest don't need to buy extra copies of the same items to see the other streams

Yeah, but if you actually have unlocked all increased speed (which is rather easy through hunts), that boon is practically nothin'. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It won't be nothing when SHB hits. You know, that purgatory before you can fly in a zone, heck, before you even unlock the story-based speed upgrades.
Also it's amazing on alts.

[TheGrimace]

Yeah, you'll have a full three days' worth of increased movement speed!

*looks at the Lalafell version*

You sure about that? I'd hate to lose the scaled version in favor of it being multiseater.

That said, I think not having unique flying and swimming animations for it are missed opportunities.

It wasn't a problem in Heavensward, it wasn't a problem with Stormblood (before you have unlocked flying and had to get the aether currents). If the maps will be smaller in SHB, then I really don't see what's so great about +1 mount speed. You'll probably upgrade the mount speed for each map anyway at a later point.

So I was actually curious about this. I don't have any riding maps on my alt, while my friend's main has them all. We were land-riding in outer la noscea and she was easily outstripping me. Where's my increased speed?

alt has 0 and story progression with my knowledge so your still with +1 speed while your friend has all putting him at +2
