EW Lynx Mounts are Ugly!

[Ryaze]

SE, can you please change the Lynx mounts? The Lynxes are very smooth, muscular, and powerful looking and then they have this extremely tiny head in comparison to their bodies. Lynxes have a totally ripped neck which suddenly terminates into a head that is more fitting on the face of a teddy bear than what they've created. They look like a roided out jock! They look fantastic other than the tiny head but it's such a glaring issue that myself, and everyone I know, wont use them. Please increase the size of the Lynx head in comparison to the rest of the body.

I remember widespread criticism for the initial gwiber design because the eyes made the dragon look derpy. So then in subsequent releases, all the new gwibers had helmets to hide the derpy eyes.

Every single person in my FC and people I know that play the game have all made the same comments regarding the Lynx design. I've never before seen a consensus on any topic among all the people I know. I figured, there must have been widespread complaints from the rest of the community and surely SE has heard the criticism and will amend this either with a model change or will add some form of helmet to compensate for the tiny head. What a disappointment to see the 6.1 Special Site updated today which shows off the new Lynx model only to see that while the rest of the model looks fantastic FFXIV Lynxes are still regularly injecting anabolic steroids.

Isn't it just using the Coeurl skeleton? In which case I wouldn't expect it to have a bigger head.

EDIT: Also, I reaaaaally hope the mount reward for collecting all EW trial mounts is Coeurlregina.

EDIT EDIT: FLYING SHINY COEULREGINA.

A lot of the creatures in this game have freakish proportions tbh, I haven't bothered to farm the extreme's because the lynx don't look good to me at all, then again neither did the dragons.. Idk why they insist on massively bulky ripped bodies and tiny heads in this game on so many things. Was really hopeful for the big dragon to be cool and high fantasy but it was just a big robot.. sigh. Hoping the final mount for getting all the lynx looks nice and isnt made of metal.

Idk if the new one at least had actual blue feathers on its wings or smt lol...

They were cool to have when they first came out, but after the novelty wore off, they are kind of ugly for sure.

Phenomenal cosmic bodies

itty bitty heads

It would be one thing if they were coeurls, but they are flying coeurls so they end up looking like just a slight variation of what we've already had with gwibers. You can almost mistake them for gwibers if you don't look closely.

They had to make them more than just cats to one-up the dogs and dragons. Otherwise it would be a step-down and this was supposed to be a grand finale.

And it's hard to think think of a better finale than shiny flying versions of the ARR Collector's Edition mount. I'm fine with it.
