MarkoNS.3261 Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Here is my 2 cents wvw has large maps that are not fast at all to traverse on foot and it has alot of players who like to stalk others, so mounts would help negate these 2 things and honestly i bought the expansion so i can play with my mounts and i want that option in wvw as well, you added gliding right time to add mounts as well.

Sovereign.1093 Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 sure, why not. we already have siege normal golem, superior and guild. also char carts. they already exist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aeolus.3615 Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 With the current WvW... no. Mounts would be to much... or would lead to something useless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DemonSeed.3528 Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 You can stay in towers/keeps/spawn if you're scared of being stalked by an enemy player, or run with the Zerg, less chances to get ganked. If you're in squad you don't have to worry about swiftness most of the time. Maybe eb needs shrine launchers too if people think the map is too large.

Map are way to small, and pet skills how they work would be to much for a pvp enviroment And the aread to use the kites are to small as well to use the mounts... u would be spending more time mounting and unmounting from pet than anything else... Now if there were new mounts, supply based or unlocked via guild stuff to be built on WvW (golems are already mounts in a way) or new vehicles....that would be diferent. I could imagine ANet selling mox /rox(gw1 golems) skins and the taimi golem skins :X as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sovereign.1093 Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 i'd buy for pve a char cart skin for raptor. would be noce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intox.6347 Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Just NO, with that time anet take to balance something... dont want to see how ppl using springers to jump into.... also raptor jump to somewhere... also moving from one part map to another... and running from fight .... stealth... ooc ... raptor .. .bb :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyczer.7834 Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 There's a potential chance of mass abuse of raptor / springer leap and griffons lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strider Pj.2193 Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 No. Lag is challenging enough, plus it would remove the tactical advantage of swiftness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsegames.3916 Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 For mounts to be added, the actual maps of WvWvW would to be removed and new ones be made with that in mind. And if you do that, Anet would probably have to give a basic glider/mount(raptor?) to use in wvw only to F2P and Core, so we avoid problems with players with low mobility that already happen in some degree in the maps already with the gliders only. Also the engaging skills of mounts.... wasnt that oneshotting players while enabled in the arena on mists? That needs to be looked before anything, maybe disabled. I think its just too much work and it will probably not happen. Doing it in the maps we have already would be a big no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rennie.6750 Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Yes. On a new map. There's still an old alpine to get rid of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, if we follow the reasoning of OP, what happens then to the haves and have nots? Do people with the 'haves' only get special treatment?

Crossaber.8934 Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 I will say No in general. But i will say yes if under some condition... It is okay to have Raptor, only allow to mount up in spawn mount stable(could be a potential tactics to keep), cannot mount up in the middle of nowhere even it is out of combat. There are already classes that u can't chase when they are on foot, if somebody able to stealth and create ooc moment then just mount and flee, it will create huge unbalance to certain class.

Nighteyess.2149 Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 If they made a mounts just for WvW it could work.With how well-received they were in Pof I'm sure they're looking at a way to add them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malerian.8435 Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 I am all for mounts. But non combat mounts. And once you get hit or are put in combat, you should be dismounted immediately. I also think the raptor should be the only mount. Also just like gliding you can only use/mount up in friendly territories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReaverKane.7598 Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Yes! But should be WvW specific mounts with WvW-themed abilities instead of the open world movement abilities. Like a Doliak mount that you can use to carry more supplies, but the more supplies you carry the slower it moves (that supply could also be delivered and count as a whole doliak for tower/keep progress) A Ram-head Raptor, can be used to ram gates (but does less damage than a normal siege ram) A spike tail Manticore-like critter, that works like a toned down Arrow cart. A Giant Warthog with a Charge ability that knocks players back when it hits (imagine a line of these charging a blob ^_^) A fast Feline-like mount that can stealth while moving outside of walls (this one would be hard to implement). So we'd have a mount for supply running, one for sieges, a defensive one, a field battle one, and a scout one. All of those skills would be the last skill of their WvW skill line, and cost a LOT of Wxp, so that most players would have to specialize in one of those mounts.

Roxanne.6140 Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 yes, we should have a spar system knight-styled with 2 charging raptors and lances. The strength of your charge is measured by how fast you can smash the 111 button. Winner of the charge takes down the wall or door health by a certain percentage, this will replace siege with mounts and bring about a more siege-less play. idk wtf is going on am i making sense?

GDchiaScrub.3241 Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Current map design doesn't support them in a meaningful capacity (we have waypoints, and terrain that would skew the balance of said mounts). Gliding wasn't even considered when designing those maps given the "necessary" changes to incorporate such a mechanic after the fact. How well would mounts go?

Krypto.2069 Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Mounts in WvW would make it an **ABSOLUTE CIRCUS** in the worst way! :-1: Just think about what those mounts can do, particularly - Griffon, Springer and Raptor, and how that **WOULDN'T** be good for WvW unless you just want **100% CHAOS!** Side note: maybe having a _mount weekend_ just for laughs might _fly_ :wink: LOL!
