Kiba.9743 Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 There's a lot of mount skins out there at this time. But I want to suggest two that I think would be great. The mount the mordrem use as a raptor skin and the teragriff as a wolf skin. ![](https://i.imgur.com/od9hPQr.jpg "") ![](https://i.imgur.com/Z5n1iXw.jpg "") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zeivu.3615 Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 They already gave us branded mounts a long time ago, and that breaks lore, so, whatever. If people want them, they want them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Greyhawk.9107 Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 Dunno, I have a lot of hatred for both those mob types, can't personally get behind making them a mount skin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danikat.8537 Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 Players have requested mordrem mounts (or plant mounts that could be mordrem, sylvari or nightmare court) several times, but for whatever reason it's never happened. I'd like it to happen one day, but I'm not expecting it at this point. > @"Zeivu.3615" said: > They already gave us branded mounts a long time ago, and that breaks lore, so, whatever. If people want them, they want them. I agree they're odd if you leave them as branded, but they're one of my favourite sets of mount skins because I find it easy to dye them to look like other things. I mainly use them as 'elemental' mounts, although I've also experimented with 'leyline' mounts. Then when I decided it was time for my main character to embrace her role as an elder dragon champion I dyed them blue and made up a story about how Aurene (accidentally) branded them when she first got that ability and they would have been destroyed but my character took them in because they'll obey her. ![](https://i.imgur.com/jbbAKO7h.jpg "") But that's why I think generic plant mounts would work better. Anet could sell them as sylvari mounts, which are lore friendly (especially since we know the Pale Tree can make pretty much any kind of creature sure can imagine, if she wanted to) and then players could dye them to be whatever they want them to be.

I'd like it to happen one day, but I'm not expecting it at this point. Thank you for the input. Here's what I have in order to give my mounts a more "thorny" plant look. I think this is the closest I can get. I'd be more than happy with even a Sylvari Hound wolf skin. But a full set would be really great. Right now, we just have the stag, which is lovely. ![](https://i.imgur.com/h00cDDf.png "") ![](https://i.imgur.com/qwV8Tq4.png "") ![](https://i.imgur.com/5RYwkRB.png "") ![](https://i.imgur.com/lAfZm7K.png "") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abraxxus.8971 Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 I think it's time that Anet give's us Scarlet's jet powered dolyak as a griffon skin. ![](https://i.imgur.com/oQkhoeA.jpg "") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A full plant-themed set is something I've been waiting for for a long time as well. All in all Sylvari/plant-themed skins are a rarity in the game. ANet missed a great opportunity with HoT to introduce more skins like that. I really hope they will do that in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love what you've done with them! I think they look great, especially the skimmer. But I'd still love to see plant themed skins one day, I think they'd have a lot of potential too.

Jojo.6590 Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 I've been getting into raids these past few weeks. I've noticed a lot of the bosses are really epic looking! It would definitely be cool to see some of them turned into mount skins such as Gorseval The Multifarious. I'd rather see them as guaranteed rewards for killing the bosses the first time rather than a low drop chance. But a cash shop skin can be okay...I guess.

I think it's pretty safe to say this far along in development that you'll never see a raid boss level detail mount skin being added as an in-game obtainable skin. The only in-game obtainable skin they've done so far was the warclaw and it was just a recolor of a gemstore skin they had already released. I'm not opposed to more gemstore skins, I just wish they wouldn't feel obligated to cycle through different mounts and would release more popular ones. Or packs of skins that aren't 60% fluff to force people to gamble to get the specific skin they want or have to wait until another mount pack to get something that completes the set. Personally I tend to favor the ones that show outside the box thinking, like turning a springer into a Gecko, a skimmer into a humming bird, or a jackal into a deer. We won't talk about Charlie. I really don't understand why they didn't make that a skyscale skin as it seems like it would have been a better fit but anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
