    Suppose that would be more "appropriate" than the way I'd do it and just have them ram your character in the butt and fly off with you experiencing 10,000 years of death... >.>; lol

    1.) The idea of the tank achievements + mounts/titles was to encourage people to play tanks in a time when we had a tank shortage that was not attributed to tanks being massively boring.

    2.) The fact people just do Deltascape 3.0 (Normal) as an 8-man group to farm through these achievements defeats the purpose of these achievements (not sure if all are affected). I have no respect for people who do this.

    I dont think they are doing it to get your respect, I think they just want the tank mount which can only ever be an achievement of endurance, not of skill.

    Just give us the fae wing and let us fly with that.

    Our fae wing fashion accessory already flaps when we jump down, might as well make us actually fly.

    Let me rephrase my choice of words then, since you liked to cherrypick that phrase.

    I think the tank achievements were a good idea to encourage tank play in duty finder or duties that were in need of tanks. I also think being able to "endure" them by spamming the easiest duty available was a bad choice.

    Luckily we have no issues now so it isn't a problem, but it is objectively a bad design choice.

    Add.:
    "I have no respect for X" was merely an expression I used to underline my disdain for this being possible. Im well aware noone cares about me.

    I don't know how doable this is, but I'd kill for a BLM mount that makes you ride whatever staff you're using like a broom

    You could also just pick that one up from the Online Store.

    All tanks get 2 each actually. Which is really, really weird. And yes because they're achievements and require tanks to queue for "high end" duties I believe, tanks will often do farm parties which is usually level 70 unsync'd content to farm their counts for it.

    wings mounts [they look like your your flying from wings out your back, they already have the animations when you jump fashion accessory wings]

    for all the healers much like how tanks get achievement mounts.
