FFXIV mounts

[Loony_BoB]

Personally, I like the idea of additional mounts. Originally I was more for multiple chocobos - and in a way, I still am. I like the idea of non-chocobo mounts. I still, however, think chocobos should have advantages. Not standard chocobos, but bred ones. I think that when you breed chocobos, you should be able to get faster ones. All the "glamour mounts" should be there for laughs and showing off, basically when you're just messing about. Chocobos that are bred by the individual should be marginally faster depending on the quality of your breeding. Perhaps have stamina/speed/boost, like in chocobo racing?

As for non-chocobo options, I like the goobbue because I find it a good laugh when you're being intentionally silly. I don't think we should have any other mounts so large, though! A dodo mount would be nice, and a large moomba could make for an effective mount. Obviously the goats could work, too, although they would have to be slower (I imagine). Drakes would be nice for a flying mount.

IDK...some silly guy who likes to watch half naked girls in his sig? You said guess You didn't say I had to be right

what makes you say hes silly?

[LillithaFenimore]

what makes you say hes silly?

Okay...fine...psychotic...better?

[Dianic]

This. It is called a Magitek. You have some Final Fantasy games to play.

Yes. Thank you for clarifying. Sorry I couldn't provide the "proper" name from a game I beat when I was in 7th grade.

so liking girls makes him psychotic.

[Andrien]

Yes. Thank you for clarifying. Sorry I couldn't provide the "proper" name from a game I beat when I was in 7th grade.

I raise your sarcasm with a thank you, and I'm glad to help.

[Drogo]

No... no I do not.

none of them, chocobos are fine.

The question wasn't "Do you want these?" it's "What would you like to see?"

Anyways, I would like to see a mount like Bahamut that only one person can have... It could even be linked to the Free Companies primal thing!

[Dianic]

I raise your sarcasm with a thank you, and I'm glad to help.

Touché

Bahamut would be a neat ride. Perhaps a battle with Bahamut... to "tame" him so to speak? If you defeat him, you get him as a mount... like a summoner pet. That'd be cool, imo!

[Ruri]

Shoopuf mounts pls

[Ramesses]

Dunno about the behemoth mount although the bahamut one is a very nice idea. It may be a little too large for the game's dynamics (if at all, give them to only leaders of Free Companies?). Plus, a mount that size would make FFXIV seem like its trying hard to be like TERA... btw, they get a white lion for NA release...



But Yoshi has mentioned a possible Wyvern mount for us eventually, which I'm totally looking forward to...



Another idea is to have bikes... things is, the current "conceptual language" of FFXIV right now seems to dictate that it would be a Garlean invention (unless Cid produces one first). Perhaps a relic of the ancient Allagians?

Meh, just my thoughts, maybe cuz I actually love motorcycles in real life... however, Snow's Shiva bike was quite something...



There are also some spiffy looking mounts in Aion which could be a thought...



Ultimately, considering the immense (and advanced) firepower that the Garleans have, if I was to suggest a super-rare ultimate unique mount in-game... (since were coinsidering flying mounts as powerful as Bahamut)... it would be to have an airship.

Yep, and Legatus Van Darnus would wet his breeches.
